Anning has taken on another mission.
Yes, she's taken on another mission.
This time, I accepted an activation task from a powerful figure.
It goes without saying what it is.
She was incredibly excited when the task appeared.
My lifelong dream has always been to be the fox in the story of "The Fox Borrows the Tiger's Power," but who would have thought I'd actually have the chance to be the tiger in that story?
She'd be a fool not to do that.
[The boss activates the mission: Abandoned factory in Moon Bay, deal with a group of thugs.]
When Anning received this task late at night, her blood was boiling.
He immediately dialed Chen Yan's number.
"Hey, hey, hey? Weren't you going to become my apprentice? Come on, here's a job. Can you get to Moon Bay within half an hour? If you can, hurry up. I'll wait for you at Moon Bay. Once the mission is complete, I'll return the money to you."
An Ning's efficiency was exceptionally high. Before Chen Yan could even reply, she hung up the phone, as if afraid that he would arrive a step too late.
It would be bad if it was too late. What if the fight was over by then? Wouldn't she be unable to complete her mission?
When Anning was about to set off, she realized that after all this time, she didn't even have a means of transportation.
There wasn't even a small electric scooter.
I rely entirely on taxis to get around.
We'll just have to find somewhere else to scam a car then.
With that in mind, Anning took out a ride-hailing app and called a car, selecting Moon Bay as the destination.
During the incident, she repeatedly asked the driver to speed up. If she hadn't looked intimidating, the driver might have already slapped her.
Hurry up, hurry up, why don't you know you should buy a car yourself?
When Anning arrived at Moon Bay, she didn't see Chen Yan. Just as she was about to take out her phone to call him, she heard the sound of bicycle brakes.
Her brows furrowed quickly, and she turned to look in the direction the sound came from.
The person who arrived was Chen Yan.
I was riding the familiar little yellow bike from Anning.
How did he manage to ride a bicycle at the same speed as her in a fast car?
Is this driver really that slow?
Seeing the fine beads of sweat on Chen Yan's forehead, An Ning confirmed her thoughts.
It might actually be true.
Perhaps he just graduated from driving school not long ago.
An Ning grabbed Chen Yan's wrist. It was evening, and couples would occasionally appear at Moon Bay to watch the sunset. Chen Yan had just seen several couples.
An Ning's sudden action at this moment had a similar meaning.
They do look somewhat like a couple on a date watching the sunset.
But that's not the case at all.
An Ning grabbed Chen Yan's wrist and pulled him inside, her feet never stopping for a moment.
"Let me tell you, you need to have enough momentum later. There will definitely be a lot of people on the other side. If you lose in terms of momentum from the start, then you're doomed. You'll definitely be the one who gets beaten to the ground and sings 'Conquer'."
An Ning spoke with a straight face, her pace quickening until she was almost running. When she suddenly heard voices, she abruptly released Chen Yan's wrist.
It was as if they were afraid of being discovered by others.
But that's not actually the case at all; Chen Yan knows this better than anyone else.
“The people should be up ahead. I’ll go up and check the situation. You stay here and do nothing.”
Chen Yan did not refute, but simply nodded slightly.
The meaning was obvious: he agreed with Anning's statement.
Seeing this, An Ning took small steps forward, pressed her body against the abandoned factory building, and stuck her head out a little... As soon as she stuck her head out, she made eye contact with the older man in the crowd.
Their eyes met, and an awkward atmosphere filled the air, spreading rapidly.
An Ning blinked and twitched her lips. "Hey, what a coincidence, I can't believe I've run into someone here."
As she spoke, she waved her hand behind her back in the air, signaling Chen Yan to come over. Chen Yan looked at her repeatedly making this gesture, somewhat puzzled, but he still slowly walked forward, hesitated for a moment, and then placed his hand on hers.
An Ning sensed something was wrong. She squeezed the object that had suddenly appeared in her hand. It felt strange, like human skin.
She turned her head and saw Chen Yan placing his hand in her own.
Silence is Cambridge tonight.
"What are you doing?"
An Ning asked very seriously, her eyes filled with the incomprehension of someone with intellectual disabilities.
"I asked you to come over." With that, she pulled her hand back, took a few steps forward, and openly exposed herself to the other person.
She was incredibly bold.
Because there are a lot of people on the other side.
Besides her and Chen Yan, there was another group of people standing on the opposite side of these people.
It seems this time it won't be her dealing with others, but rather others dealing with her.
An Ning waved again, and fearing that Chen Yan would misunderstand again, An Ning added, "Come here."
Despite feeling incredibly awkward, Chen Yan forced himself to walk toward An Ning, trying his best to remain calm.
As he got closer, a voice suddenly rang in his ear, "How many can you take on by yourself?"
His tone was very serious; it didn't sound like he was joking.
If that's the case... Chen Yan gave a conservative answer, "Half."
Half of it means that, between two parties, he can directly resolve one side.
"Isn't that a coincidence?"
An Ning patted him on the shoulder, "Go for it, do your best, and if you satisfy me, I'll take you as my apprentice."
He used an extremely reluctant tone.
But Chen Yan really took a step forward.
The two men made no attempt to conceal their conversation, and the two groups of people standing there listened to it clearly.
Do these two think they're deaf?
When the group of boys saw Chen Yan really walking towards them, they immediately took several steps back.
They were forced to come; they really had no intention of fighting.
"We won't fight! We won't fight! It's them! They forced us to come! They said we'd be cowards if we didn't come!"
Suddenly someone in the crowd shouted, and the crowd seemed to have found their leader, with voices of agreement ringing out incessantly.
"Yeah, yeah."
"We don't fight."
"You guys go ahead and fight them."
As he spoke, he took several steps back, making way for An Ning and Chen Yan to perform.
Looking at the boys who were backing away to watch the show, and then at the school badge on their uniforms, I saw that it read: Jinghai No. 1 Middle School.
The school in Jinghai, with a college entrance rate as high as 95%, truly has young people full of vigor and ambition.
Are you all coming at me together?
"No, no, you have to punch me first so I can say I acted in self-defense."
An Ning changed her mind as soon as she spoke, her face contorted with a sly smile, and she just stood there.
"How could I hit someone as beautiful as you? Be my girlfriend..."
The man didn't get to finish his sentence because Anning kicked him directly in the face.
"Haha, I'm allergic to single-celled organisms, especially yours. It's a physiological nausea."
