She said, “We can’t run together or they will catch us all! I’ll go that way. Take care, my cousin!”

Meng Liang did not stop running when he yelled outrageously, “You’re using me as bait?”

Jiang Pengji chuckled. “Meng Liang, my foolish cousin, just before your life ends, your brain finally works!”

What? Meng Liang gasped. They had run into a stinky dark alley. The moment he began to be alarmed, Jiang Pengji raised her hand and knocked on the back of his neck.

The pain was instantly accompanied by darkness in Meng Liang’s mind, where consciousness faded soon after it sensed acute pain on his throat. His body cramped.

The abrupt change frightened Nongqin, although it was completely natural to Jiang Pengji.

“Langjun, are we leaving him here?” The girl saw Jiang Pengji leave the fainted boy on the ground like a piece of rubbish, and she hesitated. She was not caring for him. What if others found out what they had done to Meng Liang?

“That’s right. Come on, let’s run! Grab the silver tight. Ten percent of it will be your wedding gift!”

Nongqing looked at her blankly.

Jiang Pengji shrugged. Nongqin was running too slowly, so she grabbed her arms and lifted her. Nongqin let out a brief shriek. With an arm around her shoulders and the other under her legs, Jiang Pengji was not slowed down a bit by the additional forty kilograms.

She stomped at a wall, bounced to the top of another, and effortlessly hopped into the adjoining alley.

“All right.” She released Nongqin when they had gotten rid of the people from the gambling house. A little exercise had sent the shadow in her mind away and she was smiling genuinely.

She had considered letting Meng Liang live a few days more, but she changed her mind.

It took a while for Nongqin to recover from shock. When she did, she turned to the langjun’s silhouette in the darkness. Even after a run, not a bead of sweat could be seen on Jiang Pengji’s forehead. She wasn’t panting, either.

Nongqin dropped her head with shame. She thought she was strong, but it turned out she could not even help the langjun, who had never done heavy housework before.

“Would Lady blame us for abandoning the guest? If he tells the gamers and guards to find us at the Liu’s...” Nongqin paused, her face pale.

Jiang Pengji curved her lips. “Well, I have the guest with me now! As for Meng Liang, he won’t be able to speak or write for some time.”

She was skilled in dealing with problematic suspects. She was quite good at numbing their arms and stiffing their vocal cords temporarily. Meng Liang’s little tricks were futile in front of her.

Hearing her response, Nongqin looked around for the guest. There were only two of them, so where was the third person? The girl shivered at the thought. The weather was even colder than it had been.

“We’ll buy some ladies’ clothes for you, and you’ll become my cousin,” explained Jiang Pengji.

Nongqin finally understood, yet she was uncertain of the feasibility. “Others have seen the guest before... They could certainly tell the difference.” Still, she would not refuse to comply with her orders.

Before they could find a solution, Jiang Pengji’s slightly better mood was once again ruined by the electronic notification in her mind.

System: “Automatic scanning starts. Searching for new missions... Ding! Search completed. Generating mission...

Meng Liang, the son of Meng Zhan in Cang, is now facing fatal threats. Rescue him within two hours. Reward for completion: Small Waist—Irresistible Shape. Punishment for failure: Level-Five Electric Shock!”

Jiang Pengji’s clenched her teeth and gave a cold laugh. “System, do you want a punch?”

The computer panicked. “It wasn’t me! The new mission plug-in generates missions automatically after its own calculation. Still, the result must be in your favor. I’ve looked at the database and it shows that you will pay a huge cost for killing Meng Liang! Just do what the mission requires!”

“Shut up! I don’t believe a word!” Jiang Pengji was indignant. Together with their earlier quarrel, she was further annoyed by the System.

The System was also irked. “Host, we are partners. You should respect me and cooperate with me. We computers always do better calculations, and we know the best thing to do now is to save Meng Liang. Believe it or not!”

“I said shut up!”

“If you ignore the mission, it will be deemed a failure two hours later. The electric shock will kill you!”

“So what?” This blocked all subsequent words from the computer.

Meanwhile, Meng Liang was caught and tied up with ropes.

“Where’re the other two?” The boss’s face turned purple. He did not want the heavily indebted boy. He just wanted his money back!

The muscular men dared not to answer. The other two kids seemed to have vanished in the blink of the eye!

Until now, they had not figured out how they had gotten away. After all, the alley was blocked and there was no way to run.

“You useless people! What’s the point of keeping you? Even a dog can bite for me! Where are you waiting for? Go and find them!”
