162: Chapter 162: The Life and Death Realization of Two Brothers 162: Chapter 162: The Life and Death Realization of Two Brothers Xiang Yu pulled out a dagger and placed it on Ding Yongzhi’s neck, Ding Yongzhi wanted to grab his gun, but it was too late.

All he could do was beg for mercy.

Today, Ding Yongzhi truly understood what it meant to be between life and death.

While Shen San was there, he thought he was a goner, but he was lucky to survive because of the sudden appearance of the beautiful woman.

Just when he thought he could catch his breath, now Xiang Yu was holding a dagger against his neck again.

The roller coaster of emotions was indeed unbearable.

“Brother Xiang Yu, you must believe me, I didn’t intend to kill you just now, it was just for show to trick Shen San,” begged Ding Yongzhi.

At that moment, Xiang Yu suddenly retracted the dagger and sat there with a chuckle, “Brother Ding, I was just joking with you.

Did you think I’m the kind of man without loyalty?

Look how scared you got.”

After saying that, Xiang Yu continued to sit there and drink tea, while Ding Yongzhi had silently cursed Xiang Yu hundreds of times in his heart; staying here no longer held any meaning for him, so he hastily said goodbye to Xiang Yu.

Xiang Yu paid him no attention and continued to sit there drinking his tea on his own.

Just then, Long Wu called.

“The two brothers have been suffering a lot in recent days.

It looks like they’ve finally saved up enough for the fare,” said Long Wu dispassionately.

“Where are you?

I’ll come right now.”

Long Wu gave the exact location to Xiang Yu, then hung up the phone.

In a secluded corner of the city, surrounded by scrap, two men sat.

They were dirty and disheveled, unmistakably the brothers Ouyang Xiu.

The brothers had changed so much that one could hardly recognize them unless one looked closely.

Now, without makeup, even Ouyang Ke wouldn’t recognize them if they walked down the street.

“Brother, today we made one hundred yuan, even more than yesterday,” said Ouyang Tian, holding a hot steamed bun in his hands, seemingly quite optimistic about their current situation.

“Hmm, with this, we’ve finally gathered enough to cover our fare to leave,” said Ouyang Xiu calmly as he looked at his brother.

He had truly changed drastically from before.

“Tian, I’m sorry you have to live like this with me,” Ouyang Xiu said, his eyes somewhat somber.

“Brother, don’t say that.

I actually think our lives are better now.

When dad was around, I knew nothing but spending money, thinking we had endless cash.

Only now do I realize how hard it is to earn money.

Besides, we rarely sat together because we were each busy with our own lives.

Now, we have the time, and I think it’s good,” Ouyang Tian said to Ouyang Xiu with a smile.

Yet as he smiled, tears welled up in his eyes, but they didn’t fall; he then lowered his head and continued eating his bun.

Ouyang Xiu nodded, patted Ouyang Tian on the head but said nothing.

His brother was his only remaining family, and he was determined to take good care of him.

Now that they had saved enough money, he planned to take his brother to another city and settle down there.

Once everything was settled, he would come back to seek justice for his father.

As for his brother, all he hoped for was that Tian could live a peaceful life.

He was ready to shoulder all the responsibilities himself.

“Tian, after we’ve eaten, we’ll head to the station,” said Ouyang Xiu.

It was safer at night, and he was convinced his uncle, Ouyang Ke, had arranged for people at the station.

If they went during the day, they might have been spotted.

If it were just Ouyang Xiu alone, it might have been manageable, but since he was with his brother, he had to ensure his brother’s safety.

Ouyang Tian had devoured some buns and drank some water before standing up and saying, “Brother, let’s go.”

Ouyang Xiu nodded, then stood up as well, feeling gratified at his brother’s growth over the past two days.

He had thought a lot lately, realizing that relying on others is inferior to relying on oneself — he must learn to be strong.

Just as the two were about to leave, a breathtakingly beautiful woman suddenly appeared in front of them, blocking their way.

Ouyang Xiu reacted swiftly, stepping forward to shield Ouyang Tian, and coldly asked the woman in front of him, “Who are you?

What do you want?”

If this had been before, Ouyang Xiu would have definitely thought that the stunning woman was simply trying to flirt with him.

After all, he was known to be handsome and extremely wealthy.

But now, his first thoughts on seeing a beautiful woman blocking his way were concerns for his own safety since no girl would like him in his current state.

“You two cannot leave here now,” the woman said icily.

Ouyang Xiu did not recognize the woman in front of him, but this woman knew him and his brother well because she had been following them for two days, as instructed by Xiang Yu.

This person was indeed Long Wu.

Looking at the cold beauty in front of him, Ouyang Xiu cautiously glanced around, but did not spot any ambush around them.

“Who exactly are you, and what do you want?” Ouyang Xiu asked cautiously, observing that there was no other visible danger, and he was already prepared for a fight.

After all, he had never met such an aloof beauty before.

In this city, he had no relatives left and there would be no more friends.

Those so-called friends had fled upon hearing about his misfortune.

How could anyone come looking for him willingly?

The only explanation that made sense was that this person in front of him was an assassin sent by Ouyang Ke who had already discovered him.

Just as Long Wu, maintaining a stern expression, was about to speak, Ouyang Xiu suddenly screamed and kicked at Long Wu, showing none of the grace expected of a man towards a lady.

Ouyang Xiu concluded that Long Wu was sent by Ouyang Ke, and he had to strike first to gain the upper hand.

No matter what, he had to ensure his brother’s safety.

After sending his brother to another city, he planned to return and really take on Ouyang Ke.

After all, Ouyang Xiu was an expert of freehand fighting at the Dragon level, and in a life-or-death situation, he held nothing back, striking Long Wu cruelly.

Previously when he sparred with Xiang Yu, because there were no deep hatreds and he had not perceived any threat to his life, he hadn’t tapped into his full potential; now was different.

If he didn’t fight with everything he had, the opponent would kill him.

His own death was inconsequential, but he wouldn’t be able to complete the mission his father had entrusted to him.

Thinking of his father’s instructions, Ouyang Xiu fought with all his might against Long Wu.

Ouyang Tian had never seen his brother fight so fiercely.

He was scared, as he had never learned any fighting skills due to his previous laziness.

Now seeing his brother charging in, he picked up a brick from the ground and also rushed at Long Wu.

Poor Long Wu, so beautiful and secretly protecting the two brothers for days, only to be attacked by them as soon as she appeared.

What an unjust world.

“Are you two ever going to stop…”
