Yuan took Anna Grace and Emma to a beach to watch the sunset. Afterward, they visited an amusement park and rode the Ferris wheel. The trio then went to a five-star restaurant for dinner, where they attracted the attention of other diners. Their meal was interrupted by the arrival of a group of college students, including the son of the Lunar Corporation's CEO, who were immediately drawn to Anna Grace and Emma.

"Darling, take a bite of this. It’s incredibly delicious!" Anna Grace brought the spoon to Yuan’s mouth with a gentle smile on her face.

"Try this as well, Hubby." Emma joined in, taking a spoonful of her food and offering it to him.

Yuan chuckled softly and accepted their affection. He first ate from Anna Grace’s spoon and then from Emma’s, bringing smiles to both of their faces.

The three of them were truly enjoying their time together as a couple. However, trouble was only a few meters away, and they had already noticed their presence.

Three young men approached their table with arrogant smiles on their faces and stood before them in imposing poses.

One of them pulled a chair from another table and sat next to Anna Grace, giving her a charming smile in an attempt to catch her attention.

"Well, well...look who’s caught my eye. I’m Brandon, and trust me, you’ll want to remember that. Now, what do I call the beauty who’s already thinking about me?"

The other two exchanged knowing glances and chimed in with smirks.

"I’m Rickey, lovely fairy. It’s a real treat to meet you."

"Oh, and I’m Trevor, by the way. Let’s make this interesting, shall we?"

They introduced themselves with arrogant and lustful tones, looking at the two women as if they were trophies they had to win.

Clang!

Yuan stopped eating and dropped his fork onto the plate. Almost immediately, everyone felt the shift in the atmosphere of the restaurant.

"Didn’t your parents teach you that disturbing others while they’re eating is bad manners?" Yuan said, folding his arms as he straightened his posture.

His eyes remained steady as he looked at the three young men who had suddenly come to their table and tried to hit on Anna Grace and Emma.

"Who the fuck are you? Go away. We don’t have any business with you," Brandon said, shooting Yuan a fierce glare with an annoyed expression on his face.

"Don’t meddle in our business if you know what’s good for you," Trevor said with a frown, placing his hand on Yuan’s shoulder and trying to push him down.

Anna Grace and Emma were taken aback by the young men’s audacity and disrespectful behavior, leaving them feeling quite annoyed.

Their wonderful date had been ruined by the sudden appearance of these disruptive individuals, quickly shattering the peaceful and romantic atmosphere.

Brandon turned his attention back to Anna Grace and reached out to hold her hand with a smirk on his face.

However, Anna Grace immediately pulled her hand away and snorted coldly, making her disgust toward him obvious.

"...Leave. None of you matter to us," she said, her voice cold and filled with annoyance.

"You’re completely ruining our mood by interrupting our romantic moment," Emma said with a frigid snort.

Brandon, Rickey, and Trevor stood frozen, their eyes wide and jaws slack, as the two women’s blunt rejection echoed in their ears.

They exchanged bewildered glances, each gulping silently, unable to process the shock of being dismissed so outright.

’D-Did they just reject us? Us?!’

All three of them had the same thought, unable to believe that they had actually been rejected.

A smile appeared on Yuan’s face. Looking at Rickey, he said, "Also, remove that hand from my shoulder and get out of our sight. And don’t bother us anymore."

All three of them felt incredibly humiliated by the rejection, and their eyes burned with rage. Yuan’s words only added fuel to the already blazing fire.

"You little... Do you even know who we are before opening that big mouth of yours?" Rickey couldn’t hold it in anymore. He was furious.

Not just him, but Trevor and Brandon were also furious after being publicly humiliated by the rejection while their friends were watching.

"Do you want a beating? If you don’t want to ride in an ambulance, get out of our sight and leave them here." Brandon pointed at Anna Grace and Emma with a dangerous grin on his face.

Trevor leaned closer and said, "You should comply while we’re still asking nicely. Otherwise, it won’t end well for you."

"Are you perhaps threatening me?" Yuan chuckled softly, finding it quite amusing considering that these youngsters were mere mortals while he was a Spirit King.

If he were to unleash his cultivation, they would turn into meat paste from the pressure alone. Their bones would snap like twigs before they could even understand what was happening.

He then turned to Rickey and said, "I won’t ask twice. Remove your hand, or else...face the consequences of provoking me."

"Face the consequences? Are you kidding me?" Rickey laughed, finding it amusing that someone had actually threatened him.

"A pretty boy like—"

Before he could finish his words, an enormous pressure descended upon the three of them.

Plop!

All three were instantly crushed onto the floor by an invisible force, their bones snapping under the overwhelming pressure.

"Aghhhh!!!"

All three screamed at the top of their lungs, feeling an indescribable pain spreading throughout their bodies.

Yuan stood up from his seat and looked at the three youngsters with a cold expression. There was no remorse on his face.

"We were having a perfect romantic date until you three fools came and ruined it. Be thankful that I’m letting you live," Yuan said, his icy voice sending shivers down their spines.

The onlookers were utterly puzzled by the situation. None of them had seen Yuan move a muscle, yet the three youngsters were now lying on the floor with broken bones.

"Just what the hell happened?!" Eric mumbled in disbelief, terrified and confused by the scene before him.

His girlfriend, Stacey, also looked puzzled by what they had just witnessed. However, she understood that Yuan was no ordinary person.

’H-How did he even do that? Did he use some kind of magic? It’s impossible... This isn’t some fantasy world from novels and manga.’

But she quickly dismissed the thought.

The other three girls were equally confused by what had just happened. They couldn’t understand how Brandon, Rickey, and Trevor had suddenly ended up on the floor.

Meanwhile, Brandon, Trevor, and Rickey were breathing heavily. They were so frightened that they didn’t even dare to pass out from the pain.

’Just what kind of monster did we provoke?!’

All three of them had the same thought running through their minds.

Yuan ignored them and turned toward Anna Grace and Emma before saying, "Let’s return home. I don’t have the appetite to eat anymore."

"Sir, here is your bill." The waiter arrived with a fearful look on his face and presented the bill.

"Put the bill on them since they were the ones who ruined our meal," Yuan said, pointing at the three youngsters lying on the floor.

"Alright. You’re free to leave, sir," the waiter replied, not daring to argue with him after witnessing what had happened to the three youngsters.

Anna Grace and Emma smiled softly and followed him closely, completely ignoring the three youngsters.

Yuan stopped in front of Eric, placed a hand on his shoulder, and said, "Keep your dogs on a leash. Next time, it won’t end with just a few broken bones."

"Do you understand what I just said?" Yuan asked, his voice deep and threatening.

Eric immediately nodded repeatedly, sweat pouring down his face as his legs trembled uncontrollably from fear.

"Good. Since you understand, do not appear before me ever again."

Yuan gave them one last warning before leaving with his wives. The entire venue was deathly silent.

The guests were so frightened by the aura Yuan had emitted that the entire restaurant fell silent, leaving everyone puzzled by what had just happened.

Eric slumped to the floor, his entire body covered in sweat. The feeling of powerlessness and helplessness left him terrified.

’Just who the hell was that man?!’ he thought, his face pale and covered in sweat.

"Eric, are you alright?" His girlfriend asked with a worried look on her face as she helped him stand up.

"I’m fine...but I don’t think Brandon and the others are. Call an ambulance for them," Eric said, looking at his three friends writhing in pain.

His girlfriend immediately dialed for an ambulance before checking on them.

"Stacey, I can’t seem to feel my legs... What happened to my legs?" Brandon asked, his expression pale.

"I can’t move at all... What did that bastard even do to us?!" Rickey mumbled, gritting his teeth through the pain.

Trevor added, "Call the ambulance! I feel like many of my bones were crushed..."

"Don’t worry. We’ve already called the ambulance, and it will be here in a few minutes," Eric said as he sat down on a random chair.

’Their bones were crushed... Was he some kind of martial artist or something? But how did he move so fast?’ he wondered inwardly, replaying the scene in his mind.

’Was that even humanly possible? Can a human really move so fast that we don’t even see him moving?’

Yuan and his wives boarded the bus, and he looked at them with a somewhat guilty expression.

"Sorry. Our first date was ruined..." he said, sighing softly.

"It was a perfect date, Hubby. Nothing was ruined. We had an amazing time," Emma replied, gently hugging his arm.

"Only our meal was ruined, and nothing else," Anna Grace added with a smile. "Don’t feel guilty about it, okay?"

"Fine," Yuan sighed and smiled at both of them before saying, "But when we go on a second date, I promise to make it the best date ever."

The bus continued moving, and a couple of moments later, they arrived at the Villa Complex.
