Rebirth from the Ashes

Chapter 316: Something Big Happened

Shen Xi was furious and glared viciously at Yu Qiubai. ‘Son of a b*tch! What’s wrong with him? He lost something and made a big deal to find it.’

Yu Qiubai had not noticed them yet.

Shen Tang sensed them first and turned to face them. “Xixi! Feng! Qiubai lost his ring. Come over to help us!”

Yu Qiubai looked at Shen Tang and thought that it was quite magical that her other senses were so sensitive even if she could not see.

Shen Xi walked over and coldly swept a glance at Yu Qiubai. “My sister can’t see, so why did you drag her along?”

Yu Qiubai smiled and did not say anything.

Shen Tang explained, “He didn’t. I wanted to help.”

In front of Shen Tang, Shen Xi could not do anything to him. Anyway, Shen Xi already pinned Yu Qiubai as a sly scheming fox, so who knew what he was up to?

Shen Feng gave Yu Qiubai a warning look and pulled Shen Tang over. “Sister, I’ll take you home. Xixi and I will help him find it.”

“Okay,” Shen Tang sounded a little disappointed. The corners of her lips had a touch of bitterness.

‘Right. I’m blind, so how can I help to look for it? I’ll just add to the trouble…’

Yu Qiubai could sense her emotions clearly and felt a prick at the tip of his heart that was vaguely painful. He looked at Shen Feng and defended her. “Your sister’s sixth sense is very strong. Let her stay. It’ll be faster with more people.”

Shen Xi did not expect Yu Qiubai to say that. She also felt her sister’s disappointment when Shen Feng asked her to go home first. Shen Xi did not expect this son of a b*tch to be so attentive.

The four of them went along the road to find the ring until it was dark out. They failed to find it.

Yu Qiubai wanted to go since he had been delayed for too long. He still had to go back home to take care of his mother, so he gave them the picture of the ring and asked Shen Xi to help him find it. He even wanted to post a missing item notice with a generous reward in town.

“Thank you all so much for helping me,” Yu Qiubai looked at them solemnly. “Sorry for troubling you all.”

Shen Xi rarely saw such sincerity and solemnness in this fox, so she did not refuse him. She nodded seriously and said, “Don’t worry, we’ll try our best.”

Shen Feng also agreed. It must be a very important ring. Otherwise, he would not have come back to find it when he was so anxious to get back home. He sympathized with Yu Qiubai and did not refuse to help either.

Yu Qiubai was in a hurry. It was still raining heavily outside, so they asked him to stay the night before leaving, but he just took an umbrella and walked into the rain.

Shen Tang stood under the eaves and looked a little worried as she listened to the pouring rain.

Shen Xi walked to her side. “Sister, what do you think of Yu Qiubai?”

Shen Tang was stunned for a moment. “He’s your friend, so what can I think of him?”

Shen Xi reminded her. “Sister, don’t be fooled by his performance. He’s a fox.”

She somehow felt that her sister treated Yu Qiubai differently.

Shen Tang heard this and laughed. “Do you think I’m interested in him? He’s younger than Feng and your classmate, so I treat him as my younger brother.”

Shen Xi said, “It’s good that you don’t have any special thoughts about him.”

‘I guess I’m overthinking it… that annoying fox wouldn’t like a quiet and well-behaved girl like Tangtang anyway. He’s just putting up a nice front in front of my sister and parents so that they’d think he’s a good boy.’

Shen Xi took Shen Tang’s arm and led her home sharing an umbrella.

The matchmaker, Mrs. Lee, ran over from a short distance with her umbrella. The rain was so heavy that she could not hold her umbrella steady. When she saw the two girls, she shouted, “Tangtang!”

Shen Xi’s eyes had a dangerous glint when she saw the matchmaker. She quickly pulled Shen Tang towards the house and ignored the matchmaker.

Mrs. Lee ran over to them and said loudly, “Oh, you’re back! I just went to the cafe to look for you because I was afraid you’ll continue waiting. Something big happened! Zhang Zicheng, your blind date, got into an accident.”

Shen Xi sneered.

Mrs. Lee looked panicked and terrified when she told Shen Zhanglin what happened. Zhang Zicheng was kidnapped and stabbed all over his body, so he was sent to the county hospital. The doctor even said that if they arrived later, he would not have made it.

“What kind of cruel person did that?!” Mrs. Lee thought about what those people described and could not help but shudder. It was simply too frightening.

“Does he have some kind of grudge with someone?” Shen Zhanglin asked.

“I’m not sure about this. Anyway, when they carried him out, he was bleeding all over. The police are now looking for the attacker, and his family offered a 200,000 yuan reward,” Mrs. Lee was shocked. She sighed and looked at them. “I’m sorry for you guys. I didn’t expect this to happen.”

This man definitely had a feud with someone. In the matchmaking business, Mrs. Lee should be well-informed about everything. She heard that this man was a playboy, so he might have offended someone.

Shen Feng walked over with his phone and asked, pretending to be surprised. “Is he called Zhang Zicheng?”

“Yes, his name is Zhang Zicheng,” Mrs. Lee nodded and was curious about what was going on, who had kidnapped him and injured him like that.

“Our high school alumni group just sent an audio clip and lots of photos. It’s all over the internet.” Shen Feng clicked on the audio and put his phone on the table. “This guy is a real jerk! Listen to it yourselves!”

The audio was recorded by Shen Xi and was the content of their interrogation in the small dark room. Shen Feng’s and her voice had been modified.

Moreover, there were all sorts of allegations online with videos and photos about all the despicable things Zhang Zicheng did – hire prostitutes, gang rape, date raping underage girls, and many other outrageous and abominable acts.

This was the first time Shen Xi’s hacking skills came in handy. These contents were posted to various chat groups, portals, and forums of all sorts. As long as one had an internet connection, they would know all about Zhang Zicheng’s evil deeds.

Now that Zhang Zicheng suffered serious injuries and was lying in the hospital, the internet praised the attacker. Some people even started a petition for this monster to undergo ancient torture of cutting pieces of meat. Castration or death was too lenient a punishment for this scumbag.

Shen Zhanglin listened to the audio and was infuriated. They did not have to see those videos and photos online to believe all the evil things he did. What a monster!

Shen Xi looked at Mrs. Lee mockingly, “Mrs. Lee, before you find a match for my sister, shouldn’t you do a background check first?”

“This boy has always been away at school and doesn’t come home much. His parents don’t know much about him either, so how can I possibly find out?” Mrs. Lee looked embarrassed and tried to clear her name. “If I’d known this, I wouldn’t have introduced him to Tangtang!”

Mrs. Lee was not completely clueless about this, but she did not expect him to be so lecherous and would do so many heinous acts. He was a true monster!
