“Dare to mess with our brother, let’s get her.”
These students really were fearless newbies, lacking in everything but guts.
Emboldened by their numbers, they swarmed in recklessly.
It would’ve been one thing if they were unarmed, but many of them carried steel pipes and wooden sticks.
Fists can’t defeat four legs.
Song Qingyu’s expression turned icy as she hit hard, quickly knocking three more to the ground, their wails painful.
However, the others weren’t intimidated but rushed at her even more fiercely.
Soon, they had surrounded Song Qingyu.
The price, however, was six of them lying on the ground while more than a dozen still stood.
“Do you all have a death wish, huh?
Even daring to attack a cop, I think you all need a good ‘education’ at the station,” Song Qingyu barked again.
“Pfft, bring on the station, I ain’t scared.
You hurt our brother, and we can’t let this go today, we must get even,” one retorted.
“Exactly, this woman can actually fight, let’s go, boys.”
The students rushed in again, and Song Qingyu had no choice but to continue to fight.
She couldn’t afford to hit too hard for fear of seriously injuring these students, which would complicate things further.
Just then, Song Qingyu sensed danger, but it was too late to react, for she had already seen a steel pipe crashing towards her forehead from the corner of her eye.
Had it struck, her head would have been split open, spattering blood everywhere.
Even the well-seasoned Song Qingyu tensed, frowning heavily.
The last thing she wanted was to fall at the hands of these punks, as it would be a massive embarrassment.
As Song Qingyu braced for the steel pipe to tenderly kiss her forehead, suddenly, a large hand, quick as lightning, seized the pipe firmly.
Looking up, she found Tangyu standing beside her, not particularly tall but exuding a warm, secure presence.
Whenever she was with Tangyu, she felt almost invulnerable.
And here he was, saving her once again, ensuring her safety.
Tangyu smiled at Song Qingyu, then with a quick tug, the steel pipe was wrested from a boy’s grasp.
Holding the pipe, he then bent it forcefully, shocking the onlookers by twisting it into a U-shape.
Then, flashing a mischievously charming smile at the stunned students, they stared, dumbfounded for three seconds before scurrying away faster than ghosts.
Tossing the bent pipe to the ground, Tangyu flashed another grin at Song Qingyu, smugly asking, “Handsome, right?”
Song Qingyu almost laughed—the answer was obviously yes, though she’d never admit it out loud: “Thank you,” she said, then turned and headed back to the car.
Tangyu pouted, dismayed to not receive applause or flowers for his efforts; he too returned to the car.
Song Qingyu didn’t drive away immediately but sat staring blankly ahead, lips pursing as though she battled internal conflicts.
Indeed, Song Qingyu was struggling internally.
“Remember when we first met?” Song Qingyu suddenly turned to Tangyu.
Tangyu smiled, “Of course, I’d just arrived in Donglin City and saw you in the midst of a thrilling cop and robber showdown.
So I heroically stepped in to save the damsel and vanished without a trace, keeping my deeds quiet.
Ah, it’s a pity, though, a low-profile guy like me couldn’t escape your keen senses, and you still pulled me out of the shadows.”
Song Qingyu chuckled softly, this guy never missed a chance to flaunt himself: “Yeah, I might not have made it that day without your help.
Maybe it’s fate that lets us be friends.”
“There’s a Buddhist saying, ‘Three hundred glances in past lives may result in merely brushing past each other in this one.’ Perhaps we were destined in past lives to have such an exciting story in this one,” Tangyu said.
Song Qingyu pursed her lips, and looked out the window: “Maybe so.
I should thank you, really.
Time and again you’ve saved me and helped me selflessly.
If I say you’re a life-saver, it wouldn’t be an exaggeration.
Because of you, my life has become more thrilling.”
“Ah, I seem to recall someone owing me a kiss, not planning to return it, huh?
I really don’t want to be selfless, but since someone insists, I guess I have to be a good Lei Feng,” Tangyu said, grinning at Song Qingyu.
Song Qingyu glared at Tangyu: “You remember that quite clearly.”
“Ah, it’s the beautiful Miss Song, I almost forgot, though I did recall, just couldn’t remember who.
Miss Song, you’ve really reminded me today, so when will you return it?” Tangyu said.
“Not serious,” Song Qingyu chided.
“Life is a play, all depend on acting skills, why be so serious all the time.
Be serious when you need to be, and relax when you should.
Song Qingyu, don’t make yourself so tense and strict all the time.
You should smile more, relax more.
You’re too much of a workaholic.
Women should treat themselves well.
You’re not a man, if you were, it would still make sense to be harsh on yourself.
On this point, I really envy you,” Tangyu said.
