The Understated Dragon Lord novel Chapter 204

Daniel wasn't clueless; it only took one glance for him to figure out that the snack shop's owner must have angered someone, leading these menacing gang members to stir up trouble.

"Who's the owner of this shop?" Daniel inquired, turning to Brittany.

"My cousin," she replied.

"Is she pretty?"

"What’s it to you?"

"Well, if she ain't pretty, I'm out of here. Just look at these troublemakers, they don't look friendly at all, and they’ve got cleavers - scary!"

"I dare you to leave! Aren't you all tough? You better solve this problem for me. Otherwise, I'll report you to Jessica!"

"Report me? For what?"

"For harassment! You, the country bumpkin, harassed me!"

"When did I harass you?"

"I say it happened, then it happened! I'm a woman, the victim, and my word is the final say!"

Daniel: ...

As they approached the entrance, one of the cleaver-wielding tough guys quickly positioned his blade at Daniel's throat.

"What are you doing here?" the tough guy demanded.

"Isn't this a snack shop? I came to grab a bite with my girlfriend!" Daniel bluffed.
