Upon hearing Lu Qing's words, Gu Fei was greatly surprised:
"What's the meaning?"
Lu Qing pulled her aside to hide next to a stone lion, then pointed to the darkness of a small bamboo grove nearby:
"Look there!"
Gu Fei looked in the direction Lu Qing pointed and saw several figures vaguely visible beside the dappled shadows of the trees.
They seemed to be lying in ambush, waiting for their prey.
"Who are they?" Gu Fei asked, puzzled.
"I don't know who it is, but their target is Ruan Yinchen."
As they spoke, Ruan Yinchen had already walked onto the path in the bamboo forest.
This is the only way to get from the girls' dormitory back to the boys' dormitory area. During the day, the path is crowded with people, but at night, almost no one passes by.
Most importantly, the road is covered with dense bamboo groves, and the surveillance cameras on several nearby roads cannot reach this area because of the bamboo leaves.
This area is essentially a blind spot for surveillance cameras; nothing you do will be captured on camera.
As Ruan Yinchen walked, he saw that his path was blocked by three burly men. Sensing something was wrong, he retreated step by step.
As soon as I turned around, three more appeared behind me.
They were all foreigners, some were exchange students, and others were from the general public.
They were communicating in English, which Lu Qing didn't quite understand, so she asked Gu Fei:
What were they saying?
Gu Fei frowned and said, "These people are all Mia's...friends with benefits. They want to take action against Mia because they can't stand that Mia likes Ruan Yinchen."
As the burly men approached Ruan Yinchen step by step, Gu Fei quickly took out her phone to call the police.
Lu Qing quickly stopped her:
"The police won't be here anytime soon, so why don't we see what your man is capable of first?"
Gu Fei blushed when Lu Qing called her "your man".
Lu Qing naturally learned this word from his older brother, and it just slipped out without thinking.
As she spoke, Ruan Yinchen picked up a stick from the ground and frowned, saying:
"I don't care who you are, get out of the way now and I'll pretend nothing happened, otherwise don't blame me for being impolite."
The six foreign men looked at each other, then burst into laughter and said in broken Chinese:
"You? There are six of us, and all you can do is sing opera. How could you possibly beat us?"
"He can sing opera?" Lu Qing looked at Gu Fei.
"Ruan Yinchen's family has been studying opera for generations, and he is said to be a successor of Master Mei. The first time I saw him was when I heard him singing 'Returning the Horse Spear' on the rooftop."
Thinking back to that scene, Gu Fei's face flushed even more.
She wasn't someone who cared about looks, but Ruan Yinchen at the time was so attractive that she couldn't take her eyes off her.
A fight had already broken out on the road, and Lu Qing and Gu Feimao were watching from the bamboo forest.
Ruan Yinchen took on six opponents single-handedly, wielding only a bamboo pole, yet she wielded it with incredible skill, much like a chivalrous hero from ancient times.
But he held back, only hitting non-lethal areas.
With a swift counterattack, Lu Qing couldn't help but clap his hands and shout, "Great!!"
The exclamation startled Ruan Yinchen and the six foreigners as well.
Upon seeing Gu Fei, Ruan Yinchen panicked:
"Gu Fei, run! It's dangerous here!"
While he was distracted, a foreign man with a swollen face pulled out a folding knife and stabbed Ruan Yinchen in the back.
"Ruan Yinchen, watch out!" Gu Fei shouted.
Ruan Yinchen tried to dodge, but it was too late; the knife was only centimeters away from him.
However, the expected pain did not come. The tip of the knife lightly touched his skin, almost touching it, but it could not get any closer.
No matter how hard the man tried, it was no use.
Upon seeing this, Ruan Yinchen kicked him directly, then took out her phone and threatened him:
"Get out of here! Or I'll call the police!"
Seeing that they couldn't win the fight and didn't want to get into legal trouble, the six men could only scramble away.
Ruan Yinchen finally breathed a sigh of relief and walked towards Gu Fei:
"How are you? Were you scared?"
Gu Fei was both amused and exasperated: "I'm not made of clay, how could I be scared!"
"But what about you? Are you injured?"
Ruan Yinchen smiled and shook her head slightly: "I'm fine."
"I never expected you to know martial arts, you're amazing!" Gu Fei praised without reservation.
Ruan Yinchen was a little embarrassed:
"I'm not particularly skilled. I studied martial arts roles and know some basic martial arts."
"These people aren't that good. If I run into an expert, I might not be able to handle them."
After speaking, Ruan Yinchen bowed to Lu Qing again:
"Thank you for helping me just now. If it weren't for you, I might have collapsed by now."
Lu Qing raised an eyebrow: "How did you know it was me who helped you?"
“Although I don’t know how you did it, I saw your hand move when that knife came at me,” Ruan Yinchen said with a smile.
Lu Qing nodded slightly:
"Excellent! To be able to keep your eyes open even under such tense circumstances, truly worthy of a female warrior!"
"Oh right! Didn't you just go into the dorm? How did you follow me here?"
"It's so late, what if there's danger?" Ruan Yinchen looked at Gu Fei with concern.
"With me here, what danger could there be!" Lu Qing raised an eyebrow and smiled.
Gu Fei smiled helplessly at Lu Qing, then explained:
"Qingqing saw that you would be in danger later, so she brought me here. I didn't expect you to be able to handle it yourself. We've just caused you trouble."
Lu Qing had long since realized that Ruan Yinchen was a martial arts practitioner, and the reason he followed him was because the blood-red light between his eyebrows was very strong.
If something unexpected happens, Gu Fei will be very upset.
"Thank you! To be honest, this is my own fault. I'll go to the hospital tomorrow and explain everything to Mia," Ruan Yinchen said, frowning.
“You’ll come with us after military training tomorrow. If this problem isn’t resolved, things won’t get any quieter,” Lu Qing said.
"good!"
...
The next day, after the morning military training ended, Gu Xicheng brought a lawyer to pick them up.
Gu Fei had sent him a message early in the morning explaining what happened last night.
Gu Xicheng didn't give Ruan Yinchen a friendly look when he saw her.
After all, his younger sister's injury was somewhat related to him, so he didn't want to see this guy for the time being.
Upon arriving at the hospital, before even entering the ward, I could hear somewhat off-key Peking Opera singing coming from inside:
"I am willing to guard the frontier for you for the rest of my life. I will learn the skill of the 'surprise attack' to drive away tigers, leopards, and wolves, so that you will never be hurt again..."
Ruan Yinchen frowned slightly.
Lu Qing asked in a low voice, "She was singing so happily, did she know that this time the spear was aimed at her ancestor?"
Gu Fei: "Her brain isn't even as pleated as the dough Grandma kneaded, she probably doesn't know."
The tense atmosphere was broken by their words.
Ruan Yinchen couldn't help but laugh, but she quickly withdrew her smile after seeing Gu Xicheng's disdainful look.
He pushed open the ward door, and Mia rushed over to him with delight as soon as she saw him:
"Ruan Yinchen, have you come to visit me?"
Ruan Yinchen immediately stepped aside to avoid Mia's embrace, then took a few steps back, standing more than a meter away from her, before speaking:
"I didn't come to see you, but to tell you not to target Gu Fei because of me again. If it happens again, I won't let you off the hook!"
Only then did Mia notice that Gu Fei, Lu Qing, and Gu Xicheng were following behind Ruan Yinchen.
"Ruan Yinchen, you have hurt me so much!"
Mia was both sad and angry, as if Ruan Yinchen were a heartless man.
"I rejected all my friends for you, worked hard to learn Chinese, and even learned to sing opera for you. Why don't you like me?"
"I just don't like it!" Ruan Yinchen's tone was sharp.
"Mia, no matter what you do, I will never like you. Hurting the person I love will only make me hate you more!"
Ruan Yinchen's words were a tacit admission that he liked Gu Fei, which made Gu Fei blush again.
The two didn't even dare to look each other in the eye, yet there was an inexplicable sweet atmosphere of first love between them.
Gu Xicheng appeared calm on the surface, but in reality, his molars were grinding together with a creaking sound.
This guy looks so clean and innocent, but I didn't expect him to be so cunning. He won his sister's heart so quickly!
