Chapter 76 - Extraordinary Skills
That was indeed the case. Mo Chi was indeed thoughtful.
There were many shops nearby as they approached the cemetery. Mo Chi stopped the car in front of a shop and brought Qin Ran into the shop to carefully choose a few items.
The two of them were carrying many bags when they saw three to five young men coming up to them. They had different colors of hair and were dressed casually. It was better to avoid trouble so Qin Ran pulled Mo Chi and made way for them.
Unexpectedly, when the two of them turned left, the other party also turned left. When the two of them turned right, the other party also turned right. It seemed that this momentum was directed at them.
“Hand over the money on you!” The young man with dyed blond hair stepped forward and berated loudly. The few brothers behind him immediately rolled up their sleeves and looked fierce.
“I don’t have money. People pay with their phones nowadays. Don’t you know?” Mo Chi replied.
How could he provoke the other party at a time like this? Of course, Qin Ran could defeat these people in front of her, but how could she pretend to be an ordinary girl in front of Mo Chi if she were to beat these people?
“Then leave the phone and the payment password behind. We promise to let you off!” The hooligan in the torn pants also took a step forward and added.
“Why don’t you let us pass? Otherwise, we’ll beat you up! Choose one yourself,” Mo Chi said as he protected Qin Ran with his arms.
When the other party heard this, their faces were filled with anger. They were clearly here to rob, but they were threatened in return. How would they survive in this area if word got out?
Relying on their numbers, the few hooligans took the initiative to attack and waved their fists at Mo Chi.
Mo Chi blocked with one hand and protected Qin Ran with the other.
He was not afraid of fighting.
Qin Ran was really afraid that Mo Chi would be at a disadvantage when he was fighting five people alone. Just as she was hesitating if she should go up and help, she saw that the five hooligans had already been beaten up.
“Let’s go!” Mo Chi picked up the things and said gently to Qin Ran.
Qin Ran, who was already dumbfounded, returned to the car and was still in a daze. Even if the president of a corporation usually paid attention to fitness, he shouldn’t have such skills. Moreover, she closed her eyes and recalled Mo Chi’s moves. She felt that they were so familiar.
Where had she seen those moves before?
Qin Ran quickly searched in her mind.
Fog.
It was her arch-enemy Fog.
She vaguely remembered that the other party had used it when they fought a few times.
Could it be…
“I’ve been learning combat techniques since I was young. Grandpa hired the most professional coach for me.” Mo Chi suddenly explained.
“I see!” Qin Ran heaved a sigh of relief in her heart. That must be the case. After all, he was the heir of Tian Mo Corporation. It was normal for him to learn combat skills from a young age for his own safety. Moreover, the Mo family was big and powerful. The coach they hired must not be an ordinary person. It was very likely that he was a retiree of the National Security Bureau.
What was she thinking just now? Although the man in front of her was sometimes a little controlling, he was generally gentle and considerate. How could he have any connection with that cold-faced arch-enemy?
Qin Ran shook her head.
The roads in the countryside were remote and difficult to walk on, especially to Qin Ran’s house.
Since she was young, Qin Ran was the one who was the furthest away from the school. She had once asked her parents why they lived in such a remote place. The answer she received was that her parents liked the quiet and were unwilling to live in a crowded place.
However, until today, Qin Ran finally understood that her parents had a special status like her and were unwilling to attract too much attention.
The car drove along the winding path. After two hours of bumps, the two of them finally arrived at Qin Ran’s house.
The countryside was vast and had few people. However, the courtyard of Qin Ran’s house was not too big, but the design was very unique. The five main rooms facing the south were clean and bright. There were three side rooms on the west side that looked like a clinic. It seemed that Qin Ran’s parents had treated patients here when they were alive. The courtyard walls were filled with flowers and plants. A few peonies bloomed beautifully.
“This species is very expensive.” Mo Chi took a closer look and realized that the peony flower in front of him was not ordinary. Instead, it was an expensive flower that was worth tens of thousands.
Of course, Qin Ran knew about her family’s things. Her mother loved flowers the most when she was alive. Every morning, she would take care of them in the courtyard before dawn. She even had someone buy these yellow peonies. However, in Mo Chi’s eyes, her parents were just ordinary villagers. Therefore, she could only pretend to be stupid and say, “Really? Is it very expensive?”
