Shu Zhe’s call was disconnected halfway for some reason. I then called the class leader, but no one picked up. I’m afraid she didn’t bring her phone with her.

  I panicked, but at least I found out the location without having to search mindlessly around the city.

  The only problem was the bridge was in the western district and I was in the central district. It would take me around 15 minutes to get there even if I called a cab right away.

  If Eunuch Cao was next to me, he would have said:

  “Master, that’s bad. I could cum three times in 15 minutes!”


  While the class leader wasn’t weak, unfortunately she’s in a disadvantageous situation.

  Even if she specializes in throwing and uses rocks as a weapon, Li ErLeng has a thick layer of skin and could withstand a lot of hits. It’s not like the time with the Rose Group where I attracted their attention. Li ErLeng would not be beaten with flying rocks.

  The most rational decision would be to run away as fast as possible. Among all the second year girls, the class leader’s hundred meter dash is only second to Xiong YaoYue. Li ErLeng might not be considered slow, but the class leader can still escape if she gave her all.

  But Shu Zhe was a liability.

  If Li ErLeng was determined to molest the class leader, then he would definitely catch Shu Zhe and use him as a tool to coerce the class leader.

  “Take…… take off your clothes, hehe.”


  That might be how Li ErLeng demands the class leader after he catches Shu Zhe.

  Shu Zhe is so useless. If he can’t run fast, he should at least sacrifice himself and tell his sister to ‘run away, don’t mind me’. It’s not like Li ErLeng will violate your ass, and even if he does it would be a new experience. I mean, didn’t the school doctor already use her finger to do it to your ass.

  Anyway, Shu Zhe would definitely say “save me, don’t let me get hurt!”.

  It’s unfortunate the class leader has that kind of a younger brother.

  Time waits for no one. I got up and headed towards the northwest exit to try and catch a cab.

  “Can…… I help?”


  He Ling heard most of the call and got the gist of what was happening.

  I shook my head. He Ling’s taekwondo looks good but wasn’t practical. She can’t even beat any of the Three Roses in a one versus one. She might be able to deal with some low level hoodlums, but won’t be able to do anything against Li ErLeng.

  And the current problem wasn’t battle power, it was getting there on time.

  I briskly walked towards the exit while trying to think of a better method.

  He Ling followed behind me without giving up.

  “Don’t look down on me, I’ve already studied taekwondo for a year and a half. Does the opposing side only have one person?”


  It sounds like He Ling wanted to follow me and once I suppress Li ErLeng, she would kick him a few times to get the thrill of street fights.

  She might even be hoping her heroic deeds gets posted on the newspaper so she could get even more attention from the males in her dojo.

  I waved at her to tell her to be quiet, then I called Xiao Qin. I was hoping Auntie Ren and Xiao Qin could go and help the class leader. They might not be going towards that direction, but they were still closer than me.

  Even though Xiao Qin always treated the class leader as an enemy, she would still save her. I could tell when she prevented the Rose Group from meddling with the class leader.

  If Auntie Ren knew her daughter’s classmate was in danger, then she would turn the car around to save her.

  But in the end, Xiao Qin’s phone was turned off.

  Auntie Ren must have made Xiao Qin turn off her phone! Auntie Ren might have even confiscated since she didn’t want Xiao Qin to contact me again at night.

  I don’t even have Auntie Ren’s number in my contacts list, so my plan was a failure.

  Seeing my frustrated expression, He Ling said:

  “Are you worried you wouldn’t make it in time? I know someone who lives near the bridge.”


  She looked like she wanted me to beg her.

  “Hurry up and tell me who lives near there.”


  Although calling the police was one option, the response time for police in this city wasn’t that great. I still wanted either me or someone I knew to save the class leader.

  “Heh, one of young master Xu’s follower, Tang Jiang, lives near there.”


  Tang Jiang aka Peaked Cap guy? His skills aren’t bad, he might not be Li ErLeng’s opponent, but he may be able to stall for a bit.

  “But I don’t have Tang Jiang’s phone number.” He Ling frowned.

  I yelled out, “I have his phone number.”


  He Ling looked at me strangely, as she couldn’t understand why someone who fought young master Xu would have Tang Jiang’s phone number.

  His number isn’t in my list of contacts, but in the list of blocked numbers. Last time he saved Shu Zhe while he was dressed as a girl and when he asked Shu Zhe for his number, Shu Zhe gave him my number. That same night, Tang Jiang sent me a message and I immediately blocked him.

  I never expected this to come to us. As long as I have his number, I can send him to deal with Li ErLeng, and I have confidence he will accept.

  I asked He Ling to get a cab while I gave a call to Tang Jiang.

  He picked up after two rings.

  “Hello, is it Xiao Hong? You finally called me, how come I couldn’t call you these past couple of days……”


  Xiao Hong was what Shu Zhe called himself while he was dressed as Southland Red Berries.

  I interrupted: “Tang Jiang, it’s Ye Lin.”


  Tang Jiang hesitated for a few seconds then said angrily: “Why do you have Xiao Hong’s phone? What’s your relationship with her? You’re supposed to be gay……”


  “Stop whining. Hurry up and get your ass to the bridge by Da Ning river, the place where I used your face as a lawnmower. Check if you can see a girl with her younger brother who ran into a hoodlum. If you do, you have to protect them no matter what.”


  I’m satisfied as long as Tang Jiang protects the class leader.

  “What? Ye Lin are you sick, why would I listen to you?”


  “I’m not sick, but I think you’re the one who’s lovesick. The Xiao Hong you’re thinking about is one of the siblings, so you will regret it if you don’t save them.”


  “Really?” Tang Jiang became serious. Since Shu Zhe gave him my phone number, he thought I had a relationship with Xiao Hong.

  And since he insisted I was gay, he would only think Xiao Hong was a relative or classmate, not a girlfriend.

  Of course, he’s not my boyfriend. I have so many cute girls next to me, why would I choose Shu Zhe to be my girlfriend?

  “Tang Jiang, it’s a great opportunity for you to be Xiao Hong’s knight in shining armor.” I continued to instigate him, “So hurry up because it would be too late if the hoodlum gets his way.”


  “Hoodlum, which hoodlum dares to touch my Xiao Hong? I’m going right now to teach him a lesson.”


  “Be careful. The opponent is even bigger and stronger than me, so make sure to bring a weapon. It’s fine if you can stall him, I’ll try to get there as soon as possible.”


  “You don’t have to come.” I could hear Tang Jiang looking for something, “I could save Xiao Hong myself. But I never expected Xiao Hong to have a younger brother, she doesn’t seem like someone who has a younger brother……”


  Why did you think Xiao Hong was the older sister when I said she was one of the two siblings? Well, that’s what a normal person would think, and when you see the class leader, you would think she was Xiao Hong…… but that’s totally wrong!

  The one you’re in love with is the younger brother! You always call me gay, but you’re the one who’s actually doing gay things.

  I was able to relax a bit after Tang Jiang ran out to rescue them.

  He Ling was also able to help me call a cab, but she told me she got a message from her mom telling her to get home before 10.

  There wasn’t much point bringing her along, so I told her to head home first so she doesn’t cause her parents to worry.

  I then got into the cab. The taxi driver was planning on waiting for another customer to carpool so he could make some more money, but he stepped on the gas after he saw my fierce look.

  I told the driver to drive as fast as possible and he nodded repeatedly.

  As we got closer to the bridge, some of the streetlights were out and it was pitch black. It was a perfect place to commit crime, so the drive was unwilling to drive any further.

  I didn’t have time to argue, so I tossed him a twenty and didn’t ask for change.

  It seems the driver wasn’t expecting to be paid. He was a bit more relieved after I paid him and he cautiously asked:

  “Young man, are you going to kill someone?”


  I didn’t reply and walked into the dark of the night.

  After walking thirty or so steps, I heard a moan coming from the river bank.
