Chasing You Like a Tenacious Falcon

Chapter 22: A Strange Combination of Circumstances

Chapter 22

Gradually, the people around Kong Mingze left and went to surround Quan Zhisui.

Zhuge Ying hurriedly went to help him up. He was covered in wounds and couldn't even stand steadily, yet he still forced himself to walk forward, looking extremely anxious.

"Don't go!" Zhuge Ying held him back.

Kong Mingze looked into the distance and saw that Quan Zhisui had already dealt with most of the people. Her school uniform was covered in red bloodstains.

He was shocked: "Quan Zhisui, are you hurt?!"

Quan Zhisui shook her hand, flinging off droplets of blood: "It's not mine."

Kong Mingze breathed a sigh of relief and looked around in panic as he yelled loudly: "Where's Wei Shixu?!"

Zhuge Ying's face was deathly pale: "I don't see Wei Shixu anywhere."

Kong Mingze anxiously jumped up and down: "Wei Shixu's been kidnapped!"

"I'll go after them." As soon as Quan Zhisui finished speaking,

she kicked away a person who was still trying to attack her and rushed towards the alley ahead.

She saw someone flash by over there - if she wasn't mistaken, it was Zuo Zichen!

What was going on here?!

Kong Mingze wanted to chase after them too, but his whole body ached and he had no strength left.

Zhuge Ying felt that she should step up: "You rest against the wall for a bit, I'll go!"

Kong Mingze grabbed her: "Too dangerous, don't go!"

The class monitor definitely could not go, but they also couldn't let Quan Zhisui go rescue Wei Shixu alone.

Kong Mingze took out his phone and dialed a number, speaking quickly: "Hello? Grandpa Wei? I'm Wei Shixu's classmate Kong Mingze! Wei Shixu's been kidnapped! Near the school! The bodyguards aren't here, and cars can't get into this alley...Just now..."

After hanging up, Kong Mingze dialed another number: "Hello? Is this Butler Qian? Wei Shixu's been kidnapped! Near the school..."

Zhuge Ying watched as he made seven or eight consecutive calls, from Wei Shixu's grandfather to the Wei family's butler, then the Wei family's bodyguards, and even the Wei family doctor.

He had all their numbers and called them all.

Except for his parents - he didn't call Wei Shixu's parents.

Zhuge Ying's mind was blown. She had assumed they were childhood classmates and therefore closer than other people, but she didn't expect Kong Mingze to be so familiar with Wei Shixu that he had his grandfather's number and whole set of contacts.

Anyway, Zhuge Ying didn't have her best friend's grandfather's number, let alone a full roster.

This was too unusual!

...

Zuo Zichen had originally wanted to personally witness Quan Zhisui's wretched state after being beaten, but when he walked to the alley, he heard Kong Mingze yell out Quan Zhisui's name.

Sure enough.

The two of them were together, getting beaten together.

What caught Zuo Zichen off guard was that right after, Kong Mingze also shouted Wei Shixu's name.

Wait!

Wei Shixu?!

How was he here too!

Zuo Zichen immediately hid and dialed a number: "I only told you to beat up that girl! And her classmates! Don't touch the tall, handsome guy..."

Unexpectedly, the voice on the other end disdainfully said: "You really don't have taste. What's the point of targeting those students? This guy's the big fish! His watch alone is worth hundreds of thousands!"

Zuo Zichen was shocked: "Stop! Do you know who he is?!"

The man laughed wildly: "I'm just earning a little extra cash on the side, this watch can let my bros live in luxury for years!"

Zuo Zichen: "Let him go! I'll add money!"

The laughter grew even more arrogant: "Bro, how much did you pay me to beat people up? How much more can you add? Can you give me millions? This is a Richard Mille watch!"

Then he directly hung up.

No matter how much Zuo Zichen tried, he couldn't get through again.

"It's over..."

Utterly finished, completely done for! He'd caused big trouble!

He had only wanted to teach Quan Zhisui a lesson, how could he have inadvertently gotten Wei Shixu beaten up?

Offending the Wei family - forget about him, Zuo Zichen, even his dad Zuo Zhishu would have to kowtow and beg for mercy against the Wei family!

There's a saying about the two overlords south of the Yangtze River in Jiangsu province. It had been passed down from the elderly since the late last century, all the way to the ears of the younger generation of today.

In Suzhou, Yan Ajiu of the Yan family. In Liangxi, Wei Jing San of the Wei family.

Wei Shixu was Wei Lao's heir!

As he glanced around the corner, a chill rose from Zuo Zichen's feet all the way up to the crown of his head.

Not only was he finished, he hadn't even succeeded in getting revenge.

Zuo Zichen decisively left - he couldn't let anyone find out he was involved in this!

Although Quan Zhisui ran fast, her target wasn't Zuo Zichen. She sprinted quickly through the alley, searching for traces of Wei Shixu.

Suddenly!

Pa Da...

A watch was tossed down from a 2nd floor window, stained with blood.

Quan Zhisui whirled around and kicked down the door of that household!

Bang!

The old wooden door shook and finally collapsed.

It was very dark inside, filled with things like an abandoned warehouse, exuding a moldy smell.

Boom boom boom!

Heavy footsteps came stomping up the stairs, accompanied by a man's cursing: "Damn, this punk looking to die, throwing such an expensive watch..."

Before he could finish speaking.

Bang!

Quan Zhisui rushed forward and punched him, directly sending him flying.

His back slammed heavily against the wall, his abdomen caving in, ribs shattering - who knew how many.

When he looked up, he saw a girl in a school uniform - the target they were supposed to surround and beat up.

How was this possible?

Dozens had surrounded her, how could she be here!

The girl's eyes were cold as she glanced at him, then quickly went upstairs.

The man lay on the ground gasping for air, even with broken bones he desperately crawled towards the exit. This had turned into big trouble, the sums were too large, he had to get out of here fast or he'd be done for if caught!

Quan Zhisui had no interest in further fighting and went upstairs to find the person.

Upstairs was a small attic, gloomy and very pungent.

When she came up, she saw Wei Shixu sitting on the garbage-filled floor, back against the wall.

His head drooped, unmoving.

His left arm was a bloody mess, probably from the metal watch band being forcefully ripped off, blood flowing down his fair skin to the filthy garbage-strewn floor.

Next to Wei Shixu stood another man, violently kicking his legs while yelling curses: "I told you to throw the watch! Throw it again!"

Bang!

Quan Zhisui rushed forward and kicked him, her strength sending him tumbling down the stairs!

Robbery, assault and battery, grievous bodily harm - they were all done for!

Quan Zhisui was fully confident in her own combat abilities. After the kick she didn't even glance at the man, immediately striding forward.

"Wei Shixu! Are you okay?"

One hand went to check his pulse while the other lifted his face to examine him.

Quan Zhisui couldn't deny feeling nervous - Wei Shixu was clearly a pampered young master raised in the lap of luxury, likely unfamiliar with dealing with thugs. He was probably severely injured.

But her gaze directly met his deeply focused eyes.

He had his eyes open!

Quan Zhisui: "..."

Not dead? Then why were you just sitting there motionless and head drooped, not even dodging when people kicked you?
