Rebirth: Once Again With You

Dai Shenqiang was the little brother of Dai Zhiqiang!

The answer was clear now. She understood how Li Caiyi would suddenly become acquainted with a student from another school and why Dai Zhiqiang had gone so far to save Li Chunhua.

Li Chunhua didn't know if she liked this development or not. On one side, she felt relieved because it meant Dai Zhiqiang couldn't leave her here, and all his cold words earlier were just a facade to divert the attention from her. However, she also felt simultaneously conflicted because the pest around her sister was increased.

While Li Chunhua was distracted by her own thoughts, the bossman had the fun of his life by thrashing Dai Zhiqiang around. He beat and kicked him, and the more Dai Zhiqiang refused to fall down, the more he felt the thrill.

"Y-yeah…. Please finish him, Boss!" The man D cheered at the bossman, unknowingly letting go of the hand on her mouth.

"You will get a raise after this for doing such a good job!"

"Thank you, Boss!"

Li Chunhua hated they kept the conversation going with no care for her well-being. Shouldn't they treat a hostage more gently? She was already frail enough even without this additional energy waste. Would they take responsibility for her medical bill if something happened?

She cautiously observed the situation, picked the timing when the hold was the loosest, and gave the arm around her neck a harsh bite.

"Ouch! You little bitch!" The man D growled in anger as he flung Li Chunhua away, throwing her to the floor. Li Chunhua wanted to curse, but there was no time for that. She had to run away from here as soon as possible!

So she picked herself up quickly and dashed toward the door. Dai Zhiqiang, who witnessed this, also seized this chance to give the bossman a fierce kick on his shin, followed by a knee strike to his stomach.

"Ugh!" The bossman staggered, and Dai Zhiqiang didn't bother with him anymore. He picked his swiss army knife, ran over to Li Chunhua, and grabbed ahold of her hand. Securing her was his topmost priority right now. Revenge for his brother could wait until he got her out of here safely.

Li Chunhua stared at Dai Zhiqiang, who got bruises and blood on his face. She felt grateful to him, but if he planned to win her sister's heart using this method, she wouldn't let that slide.

"Are you okay?" Li Chunhua asked in a low voice.

"I'm used to it," Dai Zhiqiang said nonchalantly as he wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth. "More importantly, can you run?"

"Yes."

Dai Zhiqiang didn't respond further and only tugged on her hand, forcing her to follow him. However, he didn't expect that another man had blocked their way. It seemed that man B had regained his consciousness while the commotion happened.

Dai Zhiqiang clicked his tongue in frustration. He miscalculated.

He should have brought Li Chunhua out as soon as he knocked them out. Seeing the bossman's face made him remember Dai Shenqiang's sorry state, and his rage blazed like an inferno in his gut. He just wanted to beat the bossman to death for all the suffering Dai Shenqiang had to go through.

Just like that, he let his guard down and forgot his original purpose for coming here.

Dai Zhiqiang had promised Li Caiyi he would bring her sister out safely, but look at the state they were in right now. They had those loan sharks closing in on them from all directions. They were trapped like cornered rats!

Li Chunhua could also sense that the situation didn't go well. If they lingered here longer, more of those men would spring up and attack them again, and although Dai Zhiqiang was strong, he was still made from flesh and could feel pain and fatigued. After getting beaten up by the bossman, she doubted he could fight well against multiple people at once.

"Hey, did you seriously come here alone?" Li Chunhua whispered. "If you did, then you are truly crazy, coming here with no preparation!"

Dai Zhiqiang thought about Li Caiyi, who was waiting outside. They promised that if Dai Zhiqiang hadn't come out in twenty minutes, she would call for help. It should have been around fifteen minutes since he came in. He just needed to endure until that time came.

He got his knife ready again and pulled Li Chunhua to stand behind him, staring vigilantly at the loan sharks closing in on them.

"WAIT!"

Dai Zhiqiang's face was drained of all colors when he heard that voice, even more so when he caught a figure of a girl standing at the entrance. Before he could utter anything, Li Chunhua had yanked his collar harshly with a fierce look on her face.

"What is this? Did you seriously bring my sister to a dangerous place like this?! You must have gone nuts!"

Dai Zhiqiang didn't know how to respond because Li Caiyi's sudden arrival bewildered and flustered him as well. This wasn't what they promised to do! He didn't expect Li Caiyi to be so bold to enter the enemy's den by herself.

"Stop attacking them! What you guys want is me, so come at me!" Li Caiyi said with a ferocity of a tigress.

Gone was the timid girl who was always protected by others, and what Li Chunhua saw right then was a side of her sister she had never seen before. When was the last time she saw Li Caiyi get so angry? Even when Li Chunhua constantly tested her patience and messed with people around her, she never got this angry before.

"The one who called the police that day was me. If you have any business with me, then do it now." Li Caiyi's voice had regained its calmness, but anger and coldness were lurking beneath it.

The man B, who stood closest to Li Caiyi, asked the bossman, "Boss, what should we do?"

The bossman's eyes glinted with a dangerous light as he smirked in amusement. "I see. So that's how it is. No wonder I felt something was different from the girl I caught today. Who would have guessed you were twins? Well, lots of unexpected things happen, but aren't we having the best family reunion right now?"

Dai Zhiqiang vaguely heard Li Chunhua hiss the word 'trash' behind him. Still, he was too focused on Li Caiyi to form a response.

'Why did you come here? Don't you know it's dangerous?' He thought while pressing his lips into a hard line.

Then, as though she could sense his chaotic emotion, Li Caiyi turned to him and smiled softly. She moved her mouth without sound, and from the movement, he perceived two words from her: "Thank you."
