Chapter 73: Chapter 74: Traumatized?

(A new week, everyone, please cast more recommendation tickets. Thanks!)——————————————————————

"Young Master Gao, why do I feel like the shadow of that driver looks a lot like that bumpkin surnamed Xiao?"

Just when everyone was disappointed, cursing in their hearts that the kid had gotten away too easily, a brawny man named Wang Qiang suddenly seemed to remember something.

"Idiot!"

"Crazy!"

"..."

No sooner had Wang Qiang spoken than he immediately met with a round of disdain from the three companions.

"Qiang, I think you’ve been scarred by Mr. Xiao. You see everyone as a bumpkin like him. Just look at that guy, does he seem like someone who knows how to drive?"

Li Han looked at Wang Qiang speechlessly.

"I..."

Wang Qiang thought hard, and still felt there was a resemblance, but seeing the expressions of his companions, he thought again. It just didn’t make sense for that bumpkin to be driving a Maserati. He probably couldn’t even drive so, he embarrassingly scratched his head and said, "You’re right, I guess he’s really gotten to me these past few days."

Having said that, he turned to Gao Junjie and said, "Young Master Gao, why don’t we just tell him to get lost? Seeing that bastard in the classroom really makes me anxious."

"Exactly, Young Master Gao, I feel the same way, let’s just kick him out of Z University. Just thinking about what happened this morning pisses me off."

Wang Qiang’s suggestion was met with enthusiastic agreement from the other two.

"Forget it, let’s see how things are going with Jin Xiaohan first, let him mess with Xiao Yi first."

Gao Junjie, too, felt a stir of emotion. When it came to hatred, his was no less intense than his henchmen’s toward Xiao Yi, but as the afternoon had passed, and after the incident with Zhao Yuhua, his head had cooled down from the heat of the morning. After hesitating for a moment, he did not immediately agree to his brothers’s request.

"No worries, we know how to bend and stretch. We can hold back for now. Just wait a bit longer. Chances are, we won’t even need to lift a finger, and Jin Xiaohan will have taken care of him."

Upon hearing Gao Junjie’s words, the trio thought about it and calmed down somewhat, no longer dwelling on the issue.

Xiao Yi was of course too busy to pay attention to the curses behind him, and he didn’t realize that he had just narrowly crossed paths with Gao Junjie and the Four Young Evil Masters. Minutes later, he drove the Maserati into Yanjiang Residential Area. Because he was driving a Maserati, the security guards at Yanjiang barely asked any questions and let him through immediately.

After driving around the complex, Xiao Yi easily found Jin Dongming’s residence at Villa No. 21. However, he didn’t park directly in front of Villa No. 21. Instead, he parked far away in an ordinary building’s parking lot, found an empty space, and parked there. Then he took a long detour around the complex, making sure he avoided the security cameras, before finally approaching Villa No. 21.

Standing behind Villa No. 21, Xiao Yi scanned the surroundings to make sure no one was paying attention to him. With a light leap, he vaulted over the villa’s fence and, like a nimble gecko, grabbed onto the drain pipe at the back of the villa and climbed up to a second-story window, which he pushed open and entered like a bat in the night.

Inside was a desk, and next to it a tall bookcase filled with various books. There was also a computer desk with a computer on it.

After quickly surveying his surroundings, Xiao Yi knew he had entered a study. He carefully examined the room, found nothing unusual, then turned to the door, pushed it open, and walked out.

"Yes, I know."

Just as he opened the door, Xiao Yi heard a loud voice coming from downstairs.

He hesitated briefly, flashed back inside the door, and quietly pressed his ear against it, listening to the sound of someone talking on the phone outside.

"Mm, haha, no problem."

"Mm-hmm, pleasant cooperation to everyone!"

"..."

"Yes, okay, let’s do that!"

"..."

As the outside voices grew closer, Xiao Yi was surprised to find that, accompanying the voice, there were not the footsteps of one person but two. Even more surprising to Xiao Yi was that the two people’s footsteps did not head toward another bedroom but instead toward the study where he was.

Listening to the sound of someone reaching for the doorknob outside, Xiao Yi’s figure shifted, pressed against the wall, and a faint smile appeared on his lips—good, this saved him the trouble of looking for them.

"Creak."

The door was pushed open, and a large figure entered first, followed closely by another.

As the second person entered, they pushed the door back again.

Xiao Yi had been waiting for this moment. Just then, his figure moved, his palm slicing like a blade, harshly towards the man’s neck.

"Who’s there!"

To Xiao Yi’s slight surprise, the second person reacted very swiftly. Just as his Palm Blade was about to touch the neck, the figure quickly ducked while emitting a deep roar and simultaneously swept a fierce kick toward Xiao Yi’s direction.

It must be said, the man’s reaction was exceptionally quick, and all his emergency actions were scientifically executed. If it were an ordinary person, the man’s counterattack would undoubtedly be very effective; unfortunately, he was facing Xiao Yi.

After a brief moment of astonishment, a sarcastic smile played at Xiao Yi’s lips. His Palm Blade continued its trajectory downward, but his right foot suddenly moved, causing the man’s kick to miss. Just as he was regaining his balance, the Palm Blade cut straight through his neck, and his body immediately collapsed limply to the floor.

All this happened in a flash, like a spark igniting tinder. The man who had entered first, walking toward the computer, only heard a low shout from his companion before he immediately turned around. By the time he turned, he saw the other man lying limp on the floor, and in front of him stood a young man in his twenties, slender but with narrow eyes sharp as blade edges.

Gazing at the young man before him, a surge of shock and awe rose within him. Others might not be aware, but he was acutely aware of his bodyguard’s skills—his father-in-law had found this bodyguard for him, reportedly a retired one.

That’s why he brought him everywhere he went, feeling like he had a lifeline!

Even if the young man had preemptively hidden in the room, launching a surprise attack and gaining an upper hand, the manner in which he silently took down his bodyguard was terrifying!
