Chapter 114 An Untouchable Classmate (2)
The bossman gulped when he felt the young man\'s murderous gaze on him. To think a person who had been hovered around the gray area of the law such as himself felt pressured by a mere schoolboy\'s gaze. If he didn\'t feel it for himself, he might have laughed at the idea.
"So you are here to get justice for your brother? When you haven\'t even paid your debt yet?" The boss man chuckled in amusement.
Li Chunhua\'s ears caught that information and couldn\'t help but create speculations in her mind. If Dai Zhiqiang didn\'t come here to save her, then was all of this just a coincidence? It made sense if she recalled how Dai Zhiqiang treated her like air, even though he clearly could see her earlier.
Although she was thankful for his unintentional rescue, she wasn\'t interested in Dai Zhiqiang\'s family matters or to get involved in any of that.
Li Chunhua eyed the only exit of this room, which unfortunately located past those two, which meant that she had to sneak past them without them noticing if she wanted to get out of the room. It seemed possible, yet impossible, considering the tension in the air.
\'Should I make a run for it? But what if there are still some of his subordinates outside? Without Dai Zhiqiang, I can\'t go past them alone.\' Li Chunhua carefully weighed her options.
Dai Zhiqiang watched the bossman\'s movement closely. When he was sure that he wouldn\'t make a sudden movement, he said in a low voice without turning his head, "Hey girl. Get out of this room quickly."
Li Chunhua jolted in surprise. "Y-you are talking to me?"
"Is there any other girl in this room? Just get out of this room now. I don\'t want to be held responsible if you suffer a traumatic view of being in this room any longer."
"You are Dai Zhiqiang, right? I can\'t leave until I\'m sure the coast is safe."
"Not my business. I warned you, it\'s up to you to take it or not."
Li Chunhua said in disbelief. "So you are just going to pretend I\'m not here? How cold!"
"I have no obligation to save you. Leave now, and perhaps you are going to be lucky enough to find some other people who\'d like to help you."
After that, Dai Zhiqiang didn\'t wait for her to answer and leaped towards the bossman with his knife. The bossman cursed out and shifted to a fighting stance, and another action scene began again.
Li Chunhua was frozen in her place, without knowing what to do. Should she take the chance or not?
In the end, she chose to try her luck. If she got caught again, she could just guilt-trip Dai Zhiqiang into saving her. She was pretty sure he wasn\'t that heartless enough to ignore Li Chunhua, who was his former crush\'s twin sister.
Carefully, Li Chunhua walked out of her hiding spot while bending her upper body, trying to make her presence as minimal as possible.
She almost reached the door when a hand suddenly appeared in front of her. It pressed against her mouth, preventing her from letting out a sound. The next thing she knew, someone had pulled her body backward, and her back collided with a broad chest.
"H-hmppffhh!!"
"D-don\'t move!" The person behind her shouted, causing Dai Zhiqiang and the bossman, who had suffered a few slash injuries, to halt their movement.
Li Chunhua cursed under her breath. How could she be so careless? Dai Zhiqiang knocked man D unconscious so fast, and she didn\'t expect him to get up so quickly!
"Get your filthy hands off of me!" Li Chunhua struggled, but the man\'s arm around her neck was almost as thick as her thigh, and they wouldn\'t budge no matter how much she pulled or pushed them.
"If you don\'t want her to get hurt, drop your weapon!" The man D shouted hysterically. Blood trickled down from his nose, and his stance was wobbly.
The table has turned now. Dai Zhiqiang, who looked assured and calm until a moment ago, visibly stiffened when he saw how Li Chunhua was taken as a hostage. The bossman, of course, didn\'t miss that subtle reaction. He grinned evilly when he noticed an opening.
Dai Zhiqiang, who was preoccupied with the thought of how to save Li Chunhua, wasn\'t ready to block the bossman attack. By the time he realized, the bossman had closed in and given him a solid punch to the stomach.
"Akh!" He exclaimed in pain. That punch was heavy, and his stomach was throbbing, but he quickly recovered his stance and slashed his knife around again.
"I said don\'t move! Don\'t you care what happened to this girl?!" the man D yelled again. This time, he strengthened his hold around Li Chunhua\'s neck, causing the girl\'s face to redden because of the lack of oxygen.
"Uh... ugh...!" Li Chunhua let out a suffocated noise as she tried her best to get oxygen past through her airway as much as possible.
Dai Zhiqiang clicked his tongue. He analyzed the current situation in his brain at lightning speed. His rationality concluded that he should just beat the bossman first before he could pose more threats. However, even if Dai Zhiqiang knew it was just a bluff, Li Chunhua wouldn\'t last long if this continued.
His emotion took over him, and he couldn\'t imagine what kind of look Li Caiyi would give him if he let something happen to her sister.
In the end, Dai Zhiqiang raised both his arms above his head, dropping his swiss army knife in the process.
The bossman laughed out loud at seeing that. "Sure enough, you came here to save her after all! How could you not? When she was the one who saved your little brother!" the bossman gave Dai Zhiqiang a vicious kick on his side, almost making him fall aside.
He laughed maliciously before he continued, "That\'s why you should pay your debt quickly, or more people will become victims. If you want to blame someone, then blame yourself for believing in your worthless uncle!"
Dai Zhiqiang clenched his jaw with a darkened face. If looks could cut, the bossman must have been cut into pieces by now.
Li Chunhua, who heard that, instinctively put the two and two together. Based on what she knew, it seemed Dai Zhiqiang\'s family had a debt to the bossman, and because of that, his little brother was attacked. Li Caiyi saved the little brother, which resulted in Dai Zhiqiang feeling indebted to her and running here to save Li Chunhua.
\'Wait a minute. Dai Zhiqiang? Dai family?\'
Another shock flashed across her face when she realized something else.
Dai Shenqiang was the little brother of Dai Zhiqiang!
