Peerless Martial Expert in the City-Chapter 234 - 237 You Are Truly Merciful

(Phew, I am deeply grateful for the generous support from Fallen Everything and Shen Lang GG, thank you very much; also, I am extremely thankful for the birthday wishes from Fallen Everything brother, thank you! It seems like this is the first time I, the Devilish Youngster, have received birthday wishes on Qi Dian’s website, hehe.)

————————————————

Liu Dongjun was extremely frustrated.

He was a very proud person. As a legitimate heir of the Liu Family and the designated successor praised as the most talented individual in three generations of the Liu Family, and the inheritor of the Iron Sand Palm technique passed down from Elder Liu, he had every right to be proud.

Even in Glass City, he, Young Master Liu, definitely had a place of his own. The Liu Family, being an old reputable clan in Glass City, and Elder Liu being a High Tier Condensation expert, everyone had to tread carefully when mentioning the Liu Family.

Originally, he would not have come to G City. In his eyes, this modest place was beneath him. Though the Liu Family also conducted business there, their main operations were in Eastern City, another economically developed hub within the country. As for G City, he wasn’t even sure if his family did business there, and if they did, it would only be some minor details, so there was no necessity for him to come here.

His trip to G City was entirely for the sake of pursuing Shen Xiaoxiao.

Not many knew Shen Xiaoxiao’s identity, but he was very aware. The Shen Family, as an emerging clan in Glass City, might not yet be in the same league as the Liu Family, but Shen Xiaoxiao had another identity—she was the niece of the Long Family in Glass City!

This was a significant matter. The surname Long was very uncommon, and not many knew of the Glass City Long Family. The Long Family never showed off, whether in business or politics, and rarely made an appearance in the media.

But those in the know were very clear about what the Long Family of Glass City meant.

Even a family like the Liu Family had to bow their heads and pay their respects when encountering members of the Long Family.

All he knew was just this much, and as for the true strength of the Long Family, even Old Master Liu could only describe it as unfathomable, indicating that he did not have a clear understanding of their power.

Many believed that the Shen Family’s rapid rise over the years and their swift attainment of such a high status in Glass City was entirely because they had married a woman from the Long Family.

By a stroke of luck, Liu Dongjun heard that Shen Xiaoxiao had left Glass City due to some family matters. He immediately sensed an opportunity.

So he promptly began to inquire about this issue, and after some effort, he finally learned that Shen Xiaoxiao had come to G City. He then hurried over and commenced his pursuit of her.

Originally, he thought that with his abilities, his talent, and appearance, a mere show of effort should have been more than enough to court Miss Shen of the Shen Family. At first, it seemed to be the case, as Miss Shen did not seem too resistant to him, but unexpectedly, someone actually gained the favor of Miss Shen in advance.

A fellow named Chen Yi managed to get there first, winning over Miss Shen before he did!

What made him even more depressed was that this fellow dared to embarrass him greatly right in his own garden, in front of Shen Xiaoxiao, and he almost died of anger internally.

But the most frustrating thing for him was discovering that he had been played by Shen Xiaoxiao and that surnamed Chen!

The very next day, he had someone look into Jianguo Group. With his status, investigating a company like Jianguo Group was a piece of cake. Soon enough, the results came in, and there was no one named Chen Yi in the entire Jianguo Group!

What did this mean?

It was clear that Shen Xiaoxiao was fearful that her pretty boy would be retaliated against by Young Master Liu, so she deliberately gave him false information. And that fellow who seemed so bold that day turned out to be such a coward that he didn’t dare to use his real information, which infuriated and enraged Liu Dongjun.

Of course, he didn’t dare to confront Shen Xiaoxiao about it, nor was it necessary to ask her. To stoop to that level would be too pathetic for Young Master Liu. He didn’t believe that Chen Yi could escape from the palm of his hand, and soon enough, he utilized his status to mobilize all of G City’s connections to secretly search for that Chen Yi fellow.

Yet, as time passed day after day, Chen Yi seemed to have vanished from this world since that night, leaving no trace behind. The people he had sent to monitor Shen Xiaoxiao never spotted him again. Obviously, Shen Xiaoxiao knew he was scouring the world for Chen Yi and had deliberately kept him hidden away.

Unable to find Chen Yi, the anger in Young Master Liu’s heart accumulated more with each passing day, growing into a raging inferno.

How outrageous!

The moment Liu Dongjun thought about being disrespected in a place like G City without being able to vent his anger, he felt humiliated and slammed his hand fiercely on the table.

Surnamed Chen, I don’t believe you can hide underground. Even if you could, I would dig three feet into the ground to find you!

Liu Dongjun clenched his teeth, the teacup he was holding slowly cracked and shattered in his grip, his eyes glinting with a wild and domineering light.

.........

"Brother Xiao, you’re really not being fair. How could you leave me out last night?"

Early the next morning, as soon as Zeng Xiaoxiao saw Xiao Yi, she started to pout and complain.

"Xiaoxiao, last night’s business was dangerous."

Xiao Yi was speechless. This little girl truly had a violent streak in her; otherwise, why would she be so eager for such dangerous situations? He couldn’t fathom what she found so appealing about things like kidnappings that she wanted to tag along and see.

For a while, he comforted her helplessly yet patiently.

"Really? How dangerous? What kind of danger? Who kidnapped Fatty Tang? Those bad guys who kidnapped Fatty Tang, did you take care of them all?"

Upon hearing that Xiao Yi mentioned something very dangerous, Zeng Xiaoxiao’s big eyes immediately shone brightly. She grabbed Xiao Yi’s hand excitedly and asked.

"Fatty Tang?"

Xiao Yi was stunned for a moment.

"Didn’t you say last night that your friend was kidnapped? Isn’t your friend Fatty Tang?"

Zeng Xiaoxiao widened her eyes and asked.

"Oh, yes."

Xiao Yi originally wanted to say no, but seeing Zeng Xiaoxiao’s big eyes gleaming with light, he nodded his head and said yes. He figured if he said no, she would ask a lot more questions. He remembered that the last time Wang Qingqing made a phone call, Zeng Xiaoxiao gossiped for a long time.

"So, those kidnappers, were they all dealt with? Did you dispose of their bodies and cover up the traces?"

Zeng Xiaoxiao didn’t notice the odd expression on Xiao Yi’s face. As far as she knew, in this school, Xiao Yi only had one friend, Fatty Tang. Upon hearing what Xiao Yi said, she immediately continued to ask excitedly.

"..."

Looking at Zeng Xiaoxiao, whose big eyes were flickering and face was lit up with excitement, Xiao Yi almost didn’t slump his forehead on the table. This girl was just too fierce, even talking about disposing of bodies and covering up traces. However, if it weren’t for the consideration of Wang Qingqing’s feelings, given last night’s situation, he really would have disposed of the bodies!

After a while, he came back to his senses and gave a cough, "Well, Xiaoxiao, murder is against the law. I’m a law-abiding citizen, so I wouldn’t do such things. As for those kidnappers, I let them go."

"Let them go?"

Zeng Xiaoxiao’s eyes widened in disbelief as she looked at Xiao Yi and shrieked, "Brother Xiao, how could you let them go?"

"What else could I do?"

Xiao Yi spread his hands.

"Of course you should have given them a good thrashing. Even if you don’t kill them or cover up the crime, at the very least you should beat them to a point where they’re half-paralyzed, and then call the police. Send them to the police station and let them rot in jail!"

Zeng Xiaoxiao was so certain as she fiercely waved her little fists, as if the kidnappers had wronged her deeply.

"Er... I did give them a beating, but I forgot to call the police."

Xiao Yi, already fully prepared for Zeng Xiaoxiao’s forceful nature and violent tendencies, was no longer as surprised by her suggestions as before.

He had thought about calling the police the day before, but considering Jin Xiaohan’s family background and Wang Qingqing’s reputation, he finally decided against it. After all, even though Wang Qingqing was, in fact, unharmed by Jin Xiaohan, it would still damage her reputation if the news got out. And some things, when spread from one person to ten, and then to a hundred, could end up getting distorted, especially matters regarding a woman’s purity, which really shouldn’t be gossiped about.

Of course, these were thoughts he wouldn’t share with Zeng Xiaoxiao.

"Really? To what extent did you ’take care’ of them? Were these kidnappers men or women?"

Zeng Xiaoxiao got excited again.

"..."

"Sigh, Brother Xiao, you’re really too kind-hearted. But they lack foresight too, kidnapping Fatty Tang of all people. What’s so fun about him? His family doesn’t even have much money. Why didn’t they kidnap me instead?"

Knowing that Xiao Yi only slapped them a few times and didn’t castrate the kidnappers, Zeng Xiaoxiao looked down on Xiao Yi’s mercy and shook her head with a sigh, feeling like she had missed out on a fun event. She even started to complain about the kidnappers for not kidnapping her instead.

Listening to Zeng Xiaoxiao’s words, Xiao Yi was once again at a loss for words.

This girl’s way of thinking was just too extraordinary!

Is being kidnapped a fun thing?

Besides, if Jin Xiaohan had indeed chosen her for kidnapping, he would have been the real fool, completely lacking foresight. Not to mention the High Tier master from the Bone Tempering Period lurking around Zeng Xiaoxiao, the only result of targeting her would have been a death wish. Even if he succeeded by some means in kidnapping her, it would still be a path to certain death. Jokingly, if the little girl from the Zeng family got kidnapped, wouldn’t the whole G City be trembling?

After the truth came out, wouldn’t Jin Xiaohan and his Jin Family, and even the Li Family behind them, all be doomed? (To be continued. If you like this story, please visit qidian.com to cast your recommendation votes and monthly votes. Your support is my greatest motivation.)
