My Dearest General: It Has Always Been You

Chapter 213 - You Don't Recognize Me Anymore?

The gangsters were dumbfounded. One of them whispered to the man who seemed to be their leader. "Boss, are you sure we aren't getting the wrong person? They said that she's a mute kid. This one is talking smoothly, ain't that right?"

"Do you have the photo?"

"No." He gritted his teeth. "My phone is broken by that damned man ah! The one who didn't say anything and started to beat us up all of a sudden!"

"Boss, we aren't wrong! I am sure!" Another replied. "I have seen her with that man a few times before! She's really Shi Nian! Maybe we received the wrong information…" The man who talked had spiked hair with dumb monkey face. He was none other than Zhou Zhui, the teenager who had once been beaten to pulp by Jiang Jinyan but now, he looked as fit as a fiddle, skin lustrous and spirit formidable.

That day, he had sworn not to find troubles with that madman again.

Still, habits die hard.. He had gotten used to coercing people and suppressing the weak. So, after recovering, he returned back to being an arrogant tyrant, robbing students' money and receiving jobs to teach people a lesson. Right now, their gang's target was Shi Nian.

They should have succeeded last time but who knew where the masked man came from, popping up out of nowhere and hammering them down one by one! They couldn't even make out who he was before their heads were smashed to the ground.

Unforgivable! Hateful! 

Last time, they were caught off guard but it was different now. They were prepared. A few brothers were patrolling around the area and they would catch him as soon as he appeared. Alas, the man seemed like he had vanished into thin air. Other than that day, they had never seen him around anymore.

Left with no choice, they could only catch the tail first. He wanted to protect this girl? Sure, then they would threaten him with her!

Zhou Zhui demanded fiercely. "The man surnamed Jiang, call him here."

Shi Nian pursed her lips. Her expression cooled down in an instant, eyes turning cold. The previous fear she had shown dissipated in an instant like fumes. If she could escape by acting weak, then she would gladly do that. But this time, they were obviously targeting Jiang Jinyan. Shi Nian couldn't sit still after knowing that.  "What do you want to do?"

"Hehe." Zhou Zhui sneered as he pointed at his faintly bruised face. "Do you see this, this and this? It was all done by him! Brothers, don't let her talk nonsense anymore! Tie her up and take her phone!"

Shi Nian frowned and backed away step by step. She stared warily at the four men who were creeping closer. Her expression was calm and composed. The only thing she thought was that she couldn't let them call Jiang Jinyan here!

"Don't resist too much, little girl. You see, we don't hold any grudges against you. Only that Jiang man. If you call him here, then we will release you." The Boss said.

"Boss, then how about the payment—"

"Hush, it isn't too late to deal with her after we deal with her man." 

They cackled heartily and reached a decision, didn't even bother to hide their conversation from Shi Nian.

Whistling, they teased Shi Nian back and forth just like cats playing with mice. If this was a normal person, then they would have been so scared that they would cry river of tears. However, this was Shi Nian. She had seen the most terrifying people, those who killed, those who tortured.

These kinds of gangsters were akin to heckling ducks and howling dogs. All bark and no bite.

Shi Nian wondered if she would be able to make an escape if she attacked the leader. She sized him up and down and thought it was possible as long as she attacked his most important part…

If she could take the biggest down, then the small fries wouldn't be a problem. Shi Nian was used to working continuously so her movement was quite dexterous. Paired with the knowledge of self defense taught by General Jiang in her past life, she was confident that she could escape alive.

Her muscles tensed as she braced herself to attack…

All of a sudden, vroom-vroom!! A silver metallic motorcycle drove into the alley, the driver's face was covered by a helmet as he accelerated right in their direction! 

The motorcyle's headlights were turned on, shining onto Shi Nian and the four men's faces directly.

"What the fuck?!"

"Who is that? How can he get in?!"

Everyone was caught off guard.

Where did this punk pop up from?! It couldn't be that Jiang man, right? Could they be this lucky?

"Damn it, turn off your lights!" The Boss cursed angrily.

Shi Nian had to shield her eyes as she squinted, trying to take a clearer look. The driver stopped leisurely, long legs rested on the ground as he took off the helmet. His face was overshadowed by the overly bright lights but Shi Nian could faintly make out the dark brown curls atop of his head.

A fairly familiar voice called out with mirth. "Hey, Brother Man, Brother Zhou, you don't recognize me anymore?"

Brother Man—the Boss—was shocked upon hearing that voice. "Y—Young Master! It's you! When did you arrive? Why didn't you call us?"

"Isn't it because I went first to the basecamp and didn't find you that I came all of the way here?" He laughed, crisp and hearty.

Finally, the headlights were turned off and Shi Nian could see his features clearly.

Brown curly hair, large black cross earring hanging on one ear, dark grey eyes with shades of green curving full of smiles. Except for his new hairstyle and overly large earring, he looked no different than the last time she saw him.

He turned to Shi Nian, pleasantly surprised. "Aiyah, isn't this my little meimei? Why are you guys bullying her?"

The four gangsters were dumbstruck. "Your little meimei?!"

Holy—did they really mess with the wrong person?! This was Young Master Nan, Nan Xukun's little sister?!! Wait, did he have a little sister though?
