20 -20 The Bodyguard Quits
Xiang Yu hadn’t expected Fang Rong to come out on her own, which was beyond his expectation.
“Let me go, let me go…” Fang Rong, carried on someone’s shoulder, panicked and lost her sense, then started struggling and screaming loudly.
The two men, however, paid her no heed and hurriedly moved forward.
As soon as Xiang Yu saw the two men appear, he knew something terrible was happening.
He wanted to chase after them, but suddenly someone grabbed his arm.
“You sick pervert, thinking of slipping away now?
Too late,” the person yelled.
Young people, in front of their girlfriends, always have courage.
Xiang Yu didn’t want to tangle with him and shook off his arm, preparing to move forward, when the college student stubbornly grabbed his collar again.
Seeing Fang Rong about to be taken away, Xiang Yu grew anxious.
Instinctively, he grabbed the man’s hand and twisted hard.
There was a snap—probably a break.
The college student screamed in agony, then finally let go.
Xiang Yu took a couple of steps forward, feeling somewhat remorseful, since the other man wasn’t actually a bad person, just trying to show off himself.
Xiang Yu pulled out a stack of money from his pocket and threw it on the man.
“Go see a doctor,” Xiang Yu said without lingering any longer and chased towards the distance.
In that short moment, the two men had already put Fang Rong in a car.
Xiang Yu sprinted to a car at maximum speed and chased after them.
It was now nine o’clock in the evening, the roads were busy with traffic, and it was impossible for the cars to move fast.
But Xiang Yu didn’t engage in a speed contest with the other party; he just followed closely.
After all, Fang Rong was in their hands, and he didn’t want her to be harmed.
The others noticed Xiang Yu too, but they weren’t worried and just drove at a normal speed, in tacit understanding with each other.
They drove out of the university town, where the traffic was much lighter, so both their speeds increased.
Xiang Yu closely followed them, clearly seeing the situation inside their car.
Fang Rong lay limp in the back, apparently knocked out by them.
After driving for about half an hour, they arrived in the suburbs.
The car in front slowly entered a large area that looked like a parking lot, filled with large trucks.
The three men got out, still carrying Fang Rong, and entered a huge warehouse.
The warehouse was several meters high with two connected floors.
“Big brother, we’ve brought the person,” said the man as he placed Fang Rong beside a pile of sacks.
“Good, well done.
Has anyone followed?” the person on the second-floor railing responded.
This man was tall and skinny, with a vicious and sinister face—it was Zhu Qingyuan, Fang Kuohai’s third brother.
“A guy followed us here,” responded the man.
Just then, Xiang Yu walked in, rubbing his chin and looking around.
“Wow, this place is nice, large and spacious,” Xiang Yu remarked appreciatively.
Upon seeing it was this young man, Zhu Qingyuan’s expression turned cold.
He certainly hadn’t forgotten how this young man had humiliated him at the conference, and he was determined to reclaim his dignity.
Zhu Qingyuan looked skeptically at the man below.
The man nodded and said, “Yes, big brother, only he followed.”
Once Zhu Qingyuan heard that only Xiang Yu was there, he burst out laughing.
“You’ve got guts, kid,” he said.
“No, no, no, don’t say that.
I’m the faint-hearted type,” Xiang Yu said nonchalantly, looking around the warehouse.
“Uncle Zhu, this is a nice place.
You must be making a good amount of money, right?” Xiang Yu chuckled.
“What the hell do you think you are, still trying to pretend in front of me?” At that moment, a man, infuriated by Xiang Yu’s casual demeanor, kicked him.
“Hey, bro, what’s this for?” Xiang Yu feigned surprise, then grabbed the man’s leg and yanked it backwards.
The man screamed as he was forced into a split.
“Bro, you’re quite good at this,” Xiang Yu said, patting the man’s face and laughing.
Zhu Qingyuan looked down coldly and then walked over.
“Kid, you’ve got some moves.” He approached Fang Rong, then suddenly grabbed her by the neck and lifted her up.
“You wouldn’t want to see her die, would you?” Zhu Qingyuan glanced at Xiang Yu.
Xiang Yu still had that indifferent look as he surveyed the warehouse.
“Looking at this place, there are several warehouses like this one.
It might not be a bad idea to rent one and open a small shop here,” he mused aloud.
Zhu Qingyuan, seeing that Xiang Yu wasn’t taking him seriously, drew a sharp knife from his waist and pressed it against Fang Rong’s face.
At that moment, Fang Rong awoke and opened her eyes to the sight of a gleaming dagger, which made her scream in fright.
“You bastards, let me go…”
“Hmph!
Letting you go isn’t that simple.
I’ll carve a couple of cuts on your face and see if your dad still recognizes you,” Zhu Qingyuan said, preparing to make a move.
“Wait!” Xiang Yu called out.
“Kid, are you finally taking this seriously?” Zhu Qingyuan laughed coldly.
“I just want to ask, what characters do you plan to carve on her face?
It would be a pity if they looked ugly,” Xiang Yu said with a smile.
“Kid, stop pretending.
The more you act like this, the more frightened you actually are inside.
Don’t think I wouldn’t dare.
Today Uncle Zhu will show you,” Zhu Qingyuan said, pressing harder with his knife, causing Fang Rong to tremble all over.
“Wait, wait, Uncle Zhu, you indeed are an old hand at this.
You saw right through my little ploys.
How about this, carve a few cuts on my face instead.
After all, Fang Rong is your niece.
Why should we men involve a young lady in our matters?
It would make us a laughingstock in the underworld, don’t you think, Uncle Zhu?” Xiang Yu said, stepping forward.
“Stop, don’t come any closer,” one of Zhu Qingyuan’s stout men said as he kicked Xiang Yu in the abdomen.
Xiang Yu didn’t try to dodge but took the hit firmly.
“Look, Uncle Zhu, this isn’t fair.
I’m just a lousy bodyguard.
I can’t risk my life for a job.
You know what, do as you please.
I quit my job right now,” Xiang Yu said, then turned around to leave.
“Do you think this is some kind of place where you can come and go as you please?” one of the men said, blocking Xiang Yu’s path.
“Fuck your bullshit, if I want to leave, who can stop me?” Xiang Yu said bluntly and continued to walk forward.
“Xiang Yu, you son of a bitch, you asshole, my dad won’t let you get away with this…” Fang Rong, seeing Xiang Yu really trying to leave, suddenly felt anxious.
Initially, she had been touched to see Xiang Yu chase after her alone, but now she started to hate him again.
“Miss Fang, you better pray for yourself, I’m out of here,” Xiang Yu said with a chuckle, then walked towards the exit.
“Hold on,” Zhu Qingyuan said, seeing Xiang Yu apparently not joking.
He put down Fang Rong and took two steps forward.
“How much did Fang Kuohai pay you?
I’ll give you double that if you work for me.
What do you say?”
