Chapter 309: Late-Night Pursuit

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

As expected, Wang the landlady was intimidated by his words, and her eyes swirled as she contemplated something sinister.

Zhou Nan, who was still in a fit of anger and had no common sense to begin with, wasn’t scared by Mei Feng’s words. He pointed at Mei Feng and cursed, “Who the hell are you to barge in here and boss me around? My family’s affairs are none of your business! If you know what’s good for you, you’ll leave now, or I’ll beat you up too!”

“Son!” Wang the landlady quickly restrained her son, who was speaking without restraint, and turned to Mei Feng with a much more amiable attitude. “This mister, please don’t concern yourself with our family affairs. You can leave, rest assured, we’ll be careful not to bother you.”

“Mom!” Zhou Nan, feeling ashamed that his mother was bowing her head in front of someone else, immediately protested, “Why are you scared of him? Don’t forget, we have Mr. Wang backing us up! Mr. Wang has so much money that he can’t spend it all, dealing with a small fry like him is a piece of cake!”

“Zhou Nan, don’t talk like that!” Wang the landlady, irritated, pulled her son behind her. “Mister, I’ve said everything I need to. I’m quite busy now, so please leave. Rest assured, we won’t inconvenience you.”

After speaking, Wang the landlady quickly closed the door.

Mei Feng moved to the staircase out of sight of the peephole. He didn’t leave immediately, waiting until the sounds of the scuffle from inside ceased. Only then did he feel safe enough to go back and report to Mei Shu.

“Did you see her?” Mei Shu asked with great attention to detail.

She was worried that the brute might continue his violence once Mei Feng returned.

Mei Feng nodded and reassured her, “1 saw her. She’s still conscious, and they seem to have other plans for her. They won’t harm her too severely because they don’t want to send a battered woman to Mr. Wang’s place.”

That made sense.

Mei Shu had deep concerns and felt that she couldn’t be at ease.

Seeing Lin He reminded her of her past life, making her almost impulsive.

She took a few deep breaths to calm herself and said, “It’s too late today. You should go back for now. Leave the rest to me.”

Mei Feng hesitated and said, “Sis, 1 can stay here with you. That’s what Xiao Jing and Yanyan want. They’re very worried about you living alone under that pervert, and you can’t guarantee that you won’t run into Old Wang. If she finds out, you might be in danger.”

“Don’t worry about me,” Mei Shu smiled and didn’t elaborate. She took his coat and draped it on him. “That’s enough. You should go back. Remember to study well. Don’t let this issue consume you. I can handle this alone.”

“Sis, are you forgetting you’re about to take your college entrance exams soon?” Mei Feng reminded her not to overexert herself.

Unexpectedly, Mei Shu exuded self-assuredness and pushed him away, “Alright, don’t worry about the college entrance exams. 1 know what I’m doing. This issue won’t hinder my future.”

“In that case, I’ll leave,” Mei Feng reluctantly agreed.

He felt uneasy, but Mei Shu had already opened the door and ushered him out. “I still have some practice papers to complete. Just go on, and make sure you get home safely. Send me a message once you arrive home, and I’ll clean the lunchbox myself. You can take it back tomorrow.”

“Alright,” Mei Feng couldn’t argue any further and left.

As he left the housing complex, he felt as if he was being followed, but every time he suddenly turned around, he couldn’t spot anyone.

Mei Feng felt suspicious and didn’t leave the housing complex. Instead, he took several detours and, after making sure he had completely shaken off the pursuer, he concealed himself in a shadowy location.

He hadn’t hidden for long when a suspicious figure appeared at the place he had recently occupied.

Seeing the opportunity, Mei Feng launched an attack from behind, pinning the person against the wall. He growled menacingly, “Who are you? Why have you been following me?”

The man hadn’t expected a teenager to be so challenging. He flashed a hint of disdain in his eyes and threatened, “You’d better release me right now, or 1’11 make your face blossom with cuts!”

Mei Feng was undeterred by the man’s threats and continued to hold him by the neck. He sternly demanded, “Speak! Why have you been following me?”

As soon as the question was uttered, the man’s eyes flashed with menace. He waved a knife and attacked Mei Feng.

Mei Feng dodged in the nick of time, the blade missing his cheek by mere centimeters. If he had reacted a moment later, his face would have been scarred.

“You’re carrying a knife!” Mei Feng was resolute in finding out the truth and began fighting the man barehanded.

Soon, he had a cut on his arm from the blade, but Mei Feng refused to let the man get away. Instead, he picked up a nearby large stone and hurled it at the man.

At this moment, all that remained in his mind was the absolute determination not to let the man escape easily..
