Chapter 64: Chapter 64: What kind of bodyguard is this?

The Iron Tower was towering, and for the average person, standing at the top and looking down would make their legs go weak.

"Cousin, have we not reached yet? These twenty meters feel so long!" Chu Xiaoran dared not look down.

Leng Rubing’s face was pale as she looked down, they were still at least forty or fifty meters above the ground, having descended only half the way.

If it were under normal circumstances, the two women would not have found it so difficult, but they had just been tied up outside the Iron Tower for a long time and were already exhausted.

"We’re almost there, hold on!" said Leng Rubing.

Leng Rubing was also very tired now. If they had mobile phones, they could call the police and wait for rescue, but all their phones had been taken by the other party.

"Cousin, are you deceiving me?"

Chu Xiaoran wasn’t foolish, she knew that Leng Rubing was deceiving her to give her hope, but Leng Rubing clearly underestimated her.

Caught out, Leng Rubing gave a helpless smile and said, "Hold on, there’s a platform about ten meters down, we can rest there for a while before continuing our descent."

"Then let’s hurry to it, my arms are almost numb," said Chu Xiaoran.

The two slowly started to climb down and soon arrived at the platform below. The platform was very small, but luckily they were both slight in build, otherwise they might not have been able to stand on it.

"Whew~ I’m so tired," Chu Xiaoran shook her arms out.

Leng Rubing too looked exhausted; the two of them had been captured in the middle of the night, and now the sky was almost light, clearly having not rested well, so both were weary.

But just then, a familiar voice rang out.

"Finally found you! Don’t move, I..."

Leng Rubing and Chu Xiaoran vaguely heard something and looked down to see a person standing below, and upon closer inspection, they realized it was Xiao Zheng.

The voice was very soft, inaudible if you didn’t listen carefully, which was normal given that it was coming from over forty meters in the air, and the surroundings were very open, making it hard to hear clearly what Xiao Zheng was saying.

Xiao Zheng ascended quickly, reaching the spot below Leng Rubing and Chu Xiaoran within seconds.

"I’ll carry you down!" offered Xiao Zheng.

Leng Rubing and Chu Xiaoran nodded their heads; they really had no strength left, and descending on their own would be dangerous. At Leng Rubing’s request, Xiao Zheng first carried Chu Xiaoran down, then came back for Leng Rubing.

"Idiot, what kind of bodyguard are you? We have been captured for so long, and only now you arrive?" sitting in the car, Chu Xiaoran criticized Xiao Zheng.

Although Leng Rubing didn’t say anything, her expression showed she was also somewhat dissatisfied with Xiao Zheng.

"Excuse me, I didn’t know who kidnapped you or where you were. Finding you in such a short time was not easy, alright?"

Xiao Zheng had a helpless expression, although he had just rescued them dressed in black with a mask, he couldn’t admit to that identity.

"Fine, fine, I’ve never seen such an irresponsible bodyguard," Chu Xiaoran said with an expression of disdain.

Xiao Zheng’s mouth twitched—so now he was being criticized? He shouldn’t have carried this girl down earlier; he should have left her up there to do some reflection.

"Cousin, who exactly was that person in black?" Chu Xiaoran asked, from the back seat.

Leng Rubing shook her head; she didn’t know either. However, there had been news on television and in reports about a mysterious figure in black. She was now quite curious about the person wearing the clown mask.

"A person in black? What person in black?" Xiao Zheng feigned a puzzled look.

Since Chu Xiaoran mentioned the mysterious figure in black, Xiao Zheng knew he had to act the part fully.

"That guy in the black clothes with the clown mask! It’s been all over TV recently, haven’t you seen it?" Chu Xiaoran said.

Xiao Zheng shook his head, "Haven’t seen it, I don’t really watch TV news and stuff like that."

"Ignorant." Chu Xiaoran curled her lip, and then added, "It’s a good thing that man in black saved us. If we waited for you, our bodies would probably be cold by now."

Ni ma! Xiao Zheng suddenly felt an urge to spank Chu Xiaoran.

"Aww, I really want to know who the man in black is; he’s my idol now!" Chu Xiaoran said, looking infatuated.

Leng Ruobing didn’t speak either, but curiosity shone in her eyes as well. She wondered how the other party knew she had been kidnapped and was curious why they stepped in to save her and her cousin.

An idol? Xiao Zheng felt secretly thrilled.

Becoming Chu Xiaoran’s idol wasn’t an easy feat. Despite her young age, she was quite shrewd; "Mini but mighty" was exactly the phrase to describe someone like Chu Xiaoran.

"That man in black is so amazing that he can become your idol?" Xiao Zheng asked as he drove.

"Of course! Ask cousin Rubing. The idol is so awesome, not only did he take down the people who kidnapped us, but he also saved both of us at the same time. Not just anyone can do that," said Chu Xiaoran.

Leng Ruobing nodded in agreement, "Although it’s a bit exaggerated, Xiao Ran is right. That man in black is indeed formidable. If it weren’t for him, either Xiao Ran or I would certainly have died."

Xiao Zheng felt even happier. It seemed the man in black’s identity was quite cool after all! Even Leng Ruobing was speaking up for the man in black.

However, what was awkward now was that Xiao Zheng couldn’t reveal that he was the man in black.

"Sigh, I really want to get the idol’s contact information! When will he appear next?" Chu Xiaoran kept muttering.

Though Leng Ruobing didn’t speak, her eyes clearly showed her significant interest in the clown-masked man in black too.

Soon, they arrived home in the car.

"Right, we haven’t called the police yet, have we?"

Before returning to their rooms, Chu Xiaoran suddenly asked.

Xiao Zheng and Leng Ruobing were both taken aback. From the time they were kidnapped to being rescued by Xiao Zheng, it seemed they hadn’t indeed reported it to the police.

"Forget it, the kidnappers probably weren’t targeting us. Didn’t you hear them talking about the Evil God or something? The wind was too loud; I didn’t catch it clearly."

Leng Ruobing didn’t plan to call the police, because if the police came to investigate, they wouldn’t be able to explain how they were saved by the man in the clown mask, and they weren’t planning to reveal it either.

"Evil God? What nonsense. Forget it, since we’re not calling the police, I’m going to catch up on some sleep. I’m dead tired."

Yawning, Chu Xiaoran walked into her bedroom.

"Wife, you should rest too."

Seeing Chu Xiaoran gone, Xiao Zheng immediately said with a playful smile.

Leng Ruobing gave him a glance and then also pushed open the bedroom door and went in.

Seeing that both of them had gone to sleep, Xiao Zheng went straight to the backyard and then climbed up to the roof of the villa.

"Snap—"

A flame lit up as Xiao Zheng lit a cigarette, taking a deep drag. His eyes were filled with a murderous intent; he was indeed enraged by the Wolf King.

He had to take out the Wolf King now, or the Wolf King would surely harass him further down the line.
