A large truck sped past.
It almost hit someone, swerved sharply, the driver stopped, rolled down the window, stuck his head out, and started cursing.
"Can't you even walk properly?!"
"If you want to die, get lost!"
"Don't fucking inconvenience people in the road!"
Yun Ruolin, who was in a daze, was rescued by Xuan Tong. He pulled her away from the roadway and helped her to the sidewalk.
Ignoring the strange looks and whispers of those around him, he headed straight for the school.
"Is Lulu alright? Xuan Tong is too cunning; he used the excuse of going to the bathroom to sneak out."
Shang Chuyao rushed to the coffee shop entrance, but Bai Lu had already closed the door and come out.
Although she is still slender, her mental state looks much better than when she left school.
"It's alright, let Xuan Tong come if he wants. The matter has already been taken care of."
Bai Lu looked at Shang Chuyao, whose face was full of concern, and chuckled as she took her arm: "Come on, let's go eat."
"It's good that you're alright. Time to eat, eat well and enjoy the fresh food!"
When Shang Chuyao caught up, she also saw the scene on the street. She could only say that he deserved it; the show wasn't over yet and it had to continue.
"Lulu, you haven't been eating properly these past few days. Go to Shiweixian and replenish your energy to make up for all the lost nutrients. Otherwise, if your husband sees you looking like a skeleton when you get home tomorrow, he'll definitely tear me to pieces!"
Bai Lu chuckled: "Nonsense, A-Cheng isn't that vicious."
"The 'not ferocious' version is your husband's version. The version Dazhuang told me about, the older brother version, is incredibly fierce and brutal!"
Shang Chuyao shook Bai Lu's slender arm vigorously, her expression as exaggerated as could be: "The evil dragon of Daokou! Not some nobody. This evil dragon can punch someone into a wall and you can't even pry them off! Both the underworld and the legitimate world are terrified of him, even three-year-olds cry from fear!"
"Nonsense!" Bai Lu's arm was almost knocked off its limbs by her shaking: "You've seen him beat someone up?"
"What a joke! Of course I...haven't seen it. Just tell me if you've seen it or not! I don't believe you if you say you haven't. Da Zhuang said that after Cheng Ge got you, his Storm Punch was covered up by you before he could even unleash it!"
"I didn't cover it up..."
"That's because you kissed him away!"
"Hey! Where did you get this cliché storybook from?"
"That has to be a CEO romance novel!"
"..."
The day after tomorrow is Qingming Festival. All schools and workplaces will be closed so people can go home to pay respects to their ancestors.
Bai Lu couldn't wait to see Xiao Cheng.
However, they learned from Shang Chuyao that Nanshi was about to close in. Xiao Cheng, Xiao Dazhuang, Luo Shiliu, Wang Hao, and Li Jianfeng would work with Yang Chuantang, Liu Zhenguo, and other official personnel to intercept people on their most familiar streets.
Ensure that no one escapes the net.
The task was important and she couldn't afford to be distracted, so Bai Lu didn't ask Xiao Cheng to drive all the way to pick her up.
When he called, he only said that he had already bought a ticket home and that he had something important to tell her when she got home.
Nanshi.
As Qingming Festival approaches, the streets are filled with people buying incense, candles, paper money, firecrackers, and other necessities for tomb sweeping.
People came and went, the sky darkened, and dark clouds began to gather, as if brewing a storm.
Hidden beneath the cover of a crowd of people, a private mountain villa is hosting a clandestine underground transaction.
The villa was guarded from top to bottom, inside and out, by countless bodyguards, with layers of protection and vigilance. There were also snipers in the shadows, with countless gun barrels flashing with a cold, eerie light.
It was so well guarded that it was like an airtight iron barrel, not even a fly could get in.
While the transaction was underway, it was quietly surrounded and completely suppressed by the official special police force.
The perpetrators were caught red-handed at the scene.
The volume of heroin (opium extract, addictive to drug use) traded has reached the threshold for the death penalty.
Silver handcuffs were used to handcuff criminals to prison vans, and those who tried to escape or resisted were executed on the spot.
The multiple escape routes prepared in advance by the resort have been blocked, so not even a fly can get out, let alone an escapee.
After the dust settled.
Yang Chuantang glanced at the three remaining figures in the manor, patted Xiao Cheng on the shoulder, and gave him some instructions.
"Be careful and hurry up."
Xiao Cheng nodded in agreement.
The three leaders of the four major powers that once held sway over Nanshi were now prisoners, their hands and feet bound, and thrown onto the floor of the manor's main hall.
Big boss Fu Zongyan, casino owner He Yongli, and local tyrant Xu Dongtai.
The ringleader who made the deal with them has been taken to the police station by Liu Zhenguo.
Luo Shiliu, Xiao Dazhuang, and Wang Hao led a special police team to conduct a thorough search inside and outside the villa.
Only Xiao Cheng and Li Jianfeng entered the villa.
"I never expected that I would be defeated by you two traitors in the end." He Yongli's eyes were full of hatred.
The fear of impending death drove him to frantically try to break free of the ropes binding his hands and feet, but he could not escape.
Xu Dongtai was so frightened by the gun in Xiao Cheng's hand that he begged for mercy: "Xiao Cheng, don't be impulsive! The one who suppressed your business is the big boss, and the one who wants to kill you is also the big boss!"
"If you want revenge, go find the big boss. Let me go, and I'll give you half of all my assets!"
"You know how good the business is in that commercial street in Kowloon. I can see the daily revenue of your electronics store! I'll give it all to you, the whole street, just let me go!"
When Xu Dongtai didn't see Yang Chuantang and Liu Zhenguo come in, he knew their lives were now in Xiao Cheng's hands.
The only person you can ask for help from is Xiao Cheng.
Little did he know that his reason for begging for mercy was wrong.
Xiao Cheng was cold and ruthless. His expression did not soften in the slightest. He cocked his gun and stared at Xu Dongtai as if he were dead. His words were like those of a death knell from hell.
"You're also on the wanted list."
Bounty Notice... Hunt down Bai Lu!
Xiao Cheng is avenging Bai Lu!
Xu Dongtai finally understood why Xiao Cheng, who was impulsive and irritable, hadn't come to challenge Bai Lu and die after returning from Guangdong Province to resolve the bounty on Bai Lu's head.
They all believed that no matter how beautiful or intelligent Bai Lu was, to Xiao Cheng she was just a woman, which was why Xiao Cheng would not avenge her or die for her.
It turns out, retribution wasn't delayed, but rather the time hadn't come yet.
Xiao Cheng is no longer the impulsive and violent dragon of the past, but a deeply hidden demon.
If we don't report it, so be it; but if we strike, it's fatal.
"Bang!"—"Bang!"
Before Xu Dongtai and He Yongli could react, they both collapsed in pools of blood.
With eyes wide open, filled with remorse, he died with his eyes wide open, and in the end, he could only become a handful of yellow earth.
Fu Zongyan knew that Li Jianfeng would betray him, but he underestimated Li Jianfeng's abilities, and the betrayal was so thorough.
They even dared to board the ships of their natural enemies.
"You didn't expect that, did you, my big boss?"
Li Jianfeng, his bloodthirsty eyes fixed on Fu Zongyan, smiled as he vowed to repay the debt of his severed finger tenfold.
He watched Fu Zongyan's agonizing pain intently as he sliced through the wound, one cut at a time: "How does it feel?"
"Does it hurt a lot when your finger is cut or your bone is broken?"
Li Jianfeng met Fu Zongyan's pained yet still sinister and ruthless gaze, and laughed maniacally: "Can't even handle this little bit of pain? How can you properly enjoy the inhumane tortures in the mental hospital, and those wolves in Black Mist Mountain, they're incredibly ferocious when they tear off human skin and bite human bones~"
