Since this is Chinatown, it is naturally crowded with many Chinese people.

  Inside a hot pot restaurant, the lights are bright as the delightful aroma wafted.

  ??

  Towards dinner rush hour, there are hardly any seats.

  Even though the waiters are busy, when they see them, they immediately run to cheer them up.

  A few minutes later, the four of them were seated in a private room on the second floor.

  When the waiter handed over the menu, she also advised that there is a minimum price for using a private room.

  Upon hearing this, Merry bravely waved her hand. "No problem!"

  The maid glanced at her, then silently looked at Chris and Jean, and finally when her eyes fell on Lilia's face, she was momentarily stunned before exiting the door.

  Many tourists and Chinese people come to Chinatown, but it is very rare to see men and women with such extraordinary appearances.

  Especially the tall and slender woman who looked familiar.

  After ordering food, they sat down at a square table and waited for the food to arrive.

  After Merry looked around, her bright eyes lit up, and she suggested, "Sis Lilia, do you want to eat roasted sweet potatoes? There's a small shop not far from here. I'll buy you some, okay?"

  Lilia smiled, and the little girl was pleased to see her smile, her eyes flickering narrowly. "Fine with me."

  "Then, I'll be back."

  Merry got up and walked out happily. Chris furrowed his brows and got up. "I'll go with her."

  After the two of them left, Jean's inner eyes were fixed on her face, his eyebrows raised as he asked, "Want to eat roasted sweet potatoes?"

  Lilia grinned and shook her head. "Obviously she wanted to eat it. That little girl has been holding back long enough. She's been living alone in a foreign country, I'm glad she's having a good time with us."

  How could she not see Merry's intention?

  Even though she has been well protected by her family since she was a child, she is not arrogant, and her innocence and simplicity are also what make her cute.

  Merry walked leisurely as she went to buy roasted sweet potatoes.

  Chris followed behind and reminded her to watch her step from time to time.

  The sweet potato shop was not big, Merry immediately ran to the front of the cashier. But inside the shop, she saw a familiar back. She went straight to him and hit him on the back.

  Her opponent was very tall, wearing black clothes and black pants, Clifford's strong physique looked grim.

  Merry was taken aback for a moment. She didn't see his face, but felt that the figure of that person was different from the one she knew. She hesitantly shouted. "Clifford?"

  She clearly remembered what the man looked like. Merry was sure that it was him.

  The other party slowly turned around, his height made him look down on the little girl who only reached his chest in front of him, and his voice was extremely low. "Who are you? Why did you hit me all of a sudden?"

  Merry took a deep breath and unconsciously? stepped back. Then she looked at the other party's glaring and serious face, her heart racing. "Sorry, I thought you were my acquaintance!"

  He wasn't Clifford, and although expressionless, he looked much scarier than the man she knew.

  Merry was not very involved with many people, but now she was being coldly stared at by the man nearly 1.9 meters tall. She didn't even dare to buy roasted sweet potatoes anymore, she just wanted to run away.

  "What is wrong?" At this time, Chris was already walking behind her.

  As he smoked at the door, he could faintly hear the little girl screaming for Clifford's name.

  Chris thought that Clifford was coming too, and quickly pinched his cigarette, but what greeted him was really unexpected.

  "Brother!" When Merry heard his voice, she hid behind Chris without thinking.

  She hugged his arm and whispered, "I hit someone!"

  It was her fault but….

  But the other party is terrible!

  His eyes seem like they can devour people!

  Chris took Merry's hand, took a step forward, and looked at the man who looked like him.

  The other party appears to be of mixed race, with deep sunken eye sockets, and unique angular contours typical of foreigners.

  At first glance, Chris concluded that this was a person with a violent character.

  Since his eyes were too cold, he was clearly terrifying, and his aura exuded madness.

  He did not intend to cause conflict on foreign territory. He was wondering how to speak, but the other party narrowed his eyes, walking towards Chris with pressure and tension all over his body. "What? Are you going to give me your eyes?"

  Strangers dared to stare at him for so long, and this was enough to ignite the flames of his anger.

  When Merry heard him threatening, her heartbeat raced as she took Chris' arm. "Brother, let's go."

  This is the United States, not their own country.

  Owning weapons is a matter of debate in this country, but gangsters here definitely have guns!

  And it is said that Chinatown has become a home to gangsters.

  The big man in front of them definitely looked like one. Without saying anything, Merry felt that he could kill them at any time.

  When Chris heard the little girl's voice trembling, he understood her concern, so he didn't say anything.

  He took a deep glance at the big man, and planned to pull Merry out of the shop.

  But ……

  The other party doesn't seem like he wants to let them go that easily. He threw a fist behind him, and then a strong wind blew through. Chris was ready to push Merry away and turn around to intercept the opponent's fist.

  He has been trained since childhood and his adaptability is quite good.

  Merry turned around in a panic, and the next second she saw Chris had been hit to the right of his cheek.

  "Don't hit my brother!!!"

  Merry screamed in tears, but she heard Chris shout. "Merry, you stay back!"

  What he meant was clear— hurry up and call the others to bring help!

  Chris overestimated his own skills and underestimated the opponent's speed.

  The corner of his mouth was bleeding, but he kept ignoring the pain. And after calming himself, he rushed towards the big man.

  No matter what, he must take revenge!

  Merry watched them fight, and after a second, she ran away.

  She went looking for Jean, she believed that the man would definitely help Chris.

  Merry ran to the hot pot restaurant in one breath. She was out of breath, her eyes flushed red, and when she opened the door with tears in her eyes, she burst into tears. "Uncle, please, please, Brother Chris is in danger!"

  Jean's handsome face as he sipped his tea was instantly filled with frown for a moment. "Speak clearly!"

  Lilia was also horrified, then hurriedly got up to grab Merry, "What is it, what happened?"

  Merry choked and pointed out. "I went to buy roasted sweet potatoes and met someone, I thought it was Clifford so I hit him from behind. Turns out it was someone else and he couldn't accept being treated like that! When we tried to leave, he hit? Brother Chris…! Uncle, it's all my fault but now please save Brother Chris!"

  If Chris' wound reopened, Merry was sure she wouldn't be able to forgive herself!

  After she explained, she lowered her head and cried again.

  If Chris really died, she would buy a gun and kill the big man, then kill herself.

  "I'll go and see it." Jean got up and wanted to follow Merry.

  Fights in this country are common. But Jean had the same worries as Merry. Most of the people here carried guns.

  It's not uncommon for people to die in street fights.

  Lilia also ignored the plates on the table, then took her man's hand and walked out together. "I'll go with you."

  She could not sit here comfortably while her close ones were in danger.

  "No!"

  The man refused without thinking, but Lilia insisted. "I can protect myself, don't worry. Merry is emotionally unstable, so leave her to me. Besides, I can't get you into trouble, can I?"
