Chapter 44: Do You Believe in Angels? She Descended Upon Me
Gu Xiaoxue and the others’ little schemes were obvious.
Of course, Lin Yibai’s real intention lay elsewhere.
Besides, who says you always have to hit the owner when you punish a dog?
Lin Yibai slightly smiled and said, “In the end, if we just make the dog bite the owner, isn’t that the same?”
The evidence of their crime was all recorded on her phone!
At first, they spoke in a creepy tone, threatening to do bad things to Gu Xiaoxue. Wasn’t that enough for them to be punished?
And if they wanted to protect themselves, would they drag Gu Xiaoxue and the others into this mess?
Would they really risk their futures to protect these women?
Then Lin Yibai seemed to hear them demanding money. They even looked like they were about to start a fight.
Gu Xiaoxue was tightly protected behind Xia Changyu, who told her to take Yang Yueping and the others and leave quickly.
Xia Changyu looked nervous, but his eyes were firm as he said, “You all go first. I’ll stay behind.”
Hearing this, Lin Yibai nodded.
Forget about the grudges between him and Gu Xiaoxue, at least Xia Changyu’s bravery made Lin Yibai respect him a bit!
Gu Xiaoxue and the others, to keep the show going, exchanged glances and quietly stepped out of the alley.
“This should be enough right?”
Yang Yueping patted her chest and confidently said, “Don’t worry! We’ll handle it. Even if things go badly, we’ll only end up beating him up like Lin Yibai!”
“What if he can't hold back like Lin Yibai?”
Yang Yueping replied, “Xiaoxue, this is where you’re wrong. Don’t you want to see if he really cares about you? If you don’t make him face some real trouble, how will you know if Xia Changyu is truly good for you?”
Gu Xiaoxue was silent, thinking it over. She said nothing and agreed to the plan.
Sometimes, girls’ minds are hard to understand. Even if they know something is wrong, they still insist on doing it, even if it hurts the people close to them.
At that moment, a police motorcycle with flashing lights finally stopped in front of Lin Yibai.
“Hello, comrade. Did a car hit you?”
Finally, the savior had arrived.
Lin Yibai didn’t answer immediately. Instead, she gave the officers a signal and pointed toward the wall.
The officer looked confused. “?”
Lin Yibai said, “Officer, I found some criminals who seem to be doing something illegal... Getting hit by the car is a small thing. Maintaining social order is the big issue.”
These motorcycle cops didn’t use their sirens to make a scene and alert everyone in the area. Now, they were close to the wall.
Then, from next wall, they heard a voice. “Kid, you brought this on yourself. Asking you for some money would’ve been fine, but now you’re asking for trouble. Hmph!”
Perfect, now it had escalated to a robbery threat, and the police officers had heard it with their own ears.
With that mocking sound, the next wall also echoed with the sound of fists hitting flesh.
The officers were surprised. “?”
Under the bright sunlight, illegal activity was happening right under their noses? Was there still any law or justice?
The two officers immediately stood up straight and told Lin Yibai, “You stay here and don’t move. We’ll go next door and come back.”
“Good luck, officers!”
“......”
There was only a wall between them. It would only take a small detour to reach the other side of the wall.
But Lin Yibai could hear the enemy's groans.
Something didn't feel right. Could this rival really last until the officers arrived?
"It will only take a minute or two for the officers to get around the wall and reach the other side."
Lin Yibai thought for a moment and then said, "But can the rival really hold out that long?"
Having personally experienced it, Lin Yibai knew that people like Lian Haifeng were ruthless. When they attacked, they didn’t hold back. Even if someone didn’t die, they’d still be badly hurt.
Another painful groan came from the other side. Lin Yibai couldn’t help scratching her head.
After all, this was his rival, so why should she care?
But in the end, she sighed slightly and said, “I used to be a big fool, but now isn’t Xia Changyu also a big fool? Even if he’s my rival, helping a fool like him wouldn’t hurt, right?”
Lin Yibai took a few steps back. She swore she was only feeling sorry for her enemy.
Then, taking a deep breath and focusing, she sprinted and jumped, using the wall to lift herself up. Her body swayed a bit but she managed to reach the top.
With the dim city lights shining on her, Lin Yibai could see Xia Changyu was covered in bruises.
This wasn’t like a drama show.
Xia Changyu wasn’t someone like Bruce Lee who could fight ten people at once.
Who could escape when surrounded by three or four strong young men?
Lian Haifeng’s face twisted in anger, and his eyes glinted with excitement from the adrenaline. He said fiercely, "Are you going to give up? Are you going to give up?"
Xia Changyu would never give in. How could he surrender to such a jerk?
Even though he was backed into a corner, Xia Changyu still said stubbornly, "Who do you think you are? You actually think I’ll give up? Ridiculous."
"Listen up, your dad here is called Brother Feng."
"Feng netrate (penetrate) these nuts! Haha~"
"You still dare to laugh?" Lian Haifeng couldn’t stand the mocking look on Xia Changyu’s face, and it made him furious. "What’s with that expression? Do you believe I’ll kill you?"
Seeing Lian Haifeng’s anger, Xia Changyu felt even more contemptuous. He calmly said, "So you’re just a little punk after all!"
"Puff~~"
From the top of the wall, Lin Yibai almost lost control and nearly fell off.
But who could resist an angel?
She always appeared when you needed her most, making you dream of her.
He saw the girl stand up from the top of the wall and then fall down like an angel from heaven. She perfectly kicked Lian Haifeng to the ground.
Lin Yibai was a man at heart.
She knew how to kick someone over in midair and land safely.
Lian Haifeng, holding his stomach in pain, curled up into a ball and couldn’t get up for a while.
Lin Yibai finally steadied herself.
She turned back and smiled, her gaze like the stars in the sky, making Xia Changyu unable to look away.
"Yo (＾ï¼µ＾)ノYO"
"Is it you?"
"It’s me!"
"......"
Xia Changyu, who had been serious just moments before, now felt like the world had suddenly become clear and bright when he saw this girl.
He didn’t know how to describe the feeling, but he knew that he felt "at ease" now! He even felt like he might be smiling foolishly.
But his mood quickly shifted. The danger was still there.
He swore that even if he had to break into pieces, he would protect this girl’s safety.
However, Lin Yibai opened her arms, and it seemed like she was protecting him.
This was something that would never happen with his girlfriend, Gu Xiaoxue! Even if she only pretended to protect him, it would’ve been fine.
What a joke.
Gu Xiaoxue had already disappeared.
Now, it was just her, this girl named Lin Baiyi.
She was like an angel, descending upon him.
