Tang Yaoyao was indeed different from what Lu Chi had imagined.
She is very brave.
They do not easily back down.
But I'm afraid she'll push herself too hard and end up doing more harm than good.
At that moment, I realized that she wasn't some clueless rich girl.
They still have some ability to protect themselves.
But that didn't change Lu Chi's opinion; at crucial moments, she also needed his care.
This is his job, and he understands.
Words of admiration are far from enough.
In addition, he has little contact with people and doesn't care what kind of person Tang Yaoyao is. After this mission, they will be strangers.
"Miss Tang is more hardworking than I imagined."
The arrow was stuck in the tree, cold and fraught with danger.
In the pitch-black distance ahead, several lights were on.
Their first arrow failed, and they tried again and again, with a second and a third arrow.
Lu Chi shielded Tang Yaoyao, blocking all the arrows and dodging all the damage with his bare hands.
"Miss Tang, please go first."
Tang Yaoyao held a flashlight in her hand. She could see at least five heads in front of her, hiding behind the bushes, constantly shooting arrows at them.
However, their archery skills were not very good; they missed their targets and didn't shoot hard enough.
"Catch them!" Tang Yaoyao said.
Upon hearing the order, Lu Chi quickly rushed forward. Those men weren't fools; seeing their failure, they quickly ran away.
The terrain was steep, and they ran very fast. Lu Chi wanted to give chase, but he was too cautious, so he said, "My purpose is to protect Miss Tang."
Tang Yaoyao said, "Then I'll go after them, you come with me."
Tang Yaoyao ran incredibly fast, probably eager to catch the murderer and find Xiao Jinhan's parents. She used all her strength.
Although she was thin and slender, she had a very strong will and, holding her breath, chased after him up the steep hillside.
Those people were carrying a lot of things, and compared to Tang Yaoyao who was light, they were bound to struggle, and Tang Yaoyao caught up with them in no time.
Seeing that they were being caught, the men, in a fit of desperation, pulled out knives and stabbed at Tang Yaoyao.
Tang Yaoyao nimbly dodged, grabbed his wrist and twisted it backward.
The knife fell to the ground, and the man screamed in pain.
Then they attacked together, preparing to kill Tang Yaoyao.
Fortunately, Lu Chi was behind them. He punched each of the kids one by one, making their mouths crooked and causing them to vomit blood.
His strength left Tang Yaoyao speechless.
“Miss Tang.” Lu Chi turned around, worried that Tang Yaoyao might get hurt.
The man who had been beaten was unwilling to accept this, so he got up from the ground and tried to stab Lu Chi.
Tang Yaoyao was pushing Lu Chi away when Lu Chi, quick-witted, reached out and grabbed the man's knife, twisted it, and knocked him to the ground again.
Lu Chi's hand was injured, but he seemed oblivious to the pain, not even flinching as blood dripped from his hand. He then stomped on the man's head, saying, "Do you know what I'm going to ask?"
The men didn't look like assassins; they looked more like the guards of Rongshan Mountain, all dressed in identical uniforms. They looked up, blood trickling from the corners of their mouths. One of them, who seemed to be their leader, mumbled, "What are you doing sneaking around here in the middle of the night?"
Lu Chi and Tang Yaoyao exchanged a glance: "Let's find someone."
The man sneered, "Don't think I don't know you want to set fire to Rongshan. This place is not only a scenic area, but also the livelihood of the nearby villagers. We will not allow you to destroy it."
Tang Yaoyao said, "Who told you that?"
“There was a fire ahead, and the trees were damaged. Someone informed us that some people would come to Rongshan to cause trouble. Well, we caught them. We have already called the police and caught you murderers.”
