Yu Xiaoduo naturally welcomed her with open arms. Finally, a little lamb had walked into the wolf’s den. Those boring days would be gone forever. Just thinking about the wonderful days ahead, Yu Xiaoduo said a picture had already formed in his mind.
Gu Wan’er really wanted to remind her friend to be careful around him—he was the kind who would eat people without even spitting out the bones.
After eating and drinking their fill, Yu Xiaoduo leaned back in the chair, feeling a bit stuffed. Gu Wan’er’s appetite was just too small.
Look at her—when she was sitting on him earlier, her appetite had been tiny. But now it was different. The table in front of her was covered in shrimp heads. Her appetite was astonishing.
Just then, sounds of smashing and crashing came from outside, along with the clanking of beer bottles.
Yu Xiaoduo said there was no need to even look—it was definitely a fight. But it couldn’t interfere with his alone time with Luan’er. Maybe someone had danced too much today and had a sore back. He, Yu Xiaoduo, was a top-tier masseur. His specialty was helping young ladies relieve their fatigue and feel like they were floating on cloud nine.
“I’ll go pay the bill,” Gu Wan’er volunteered, which made Yu Xiaoduo’s heart ache. Spending my money again. This needs to be written down. It has to be paid back.
As soon as Yu Xiaoduo left, Xiao Luan chuckled softly. “You really plan to play matchmaker?”
“How could I ever harm you? I guarantee you won’t lose out. There might even be a surprise.”
“Then why don’t you keep him for yourself?”
Yu Xiaoduo shrugged her fragrant shoulders. “You know I don’t like that type. Too handsome. No sense of security.”
Xiao Luan was speechless.
“He is a bit handsome, I suppose. His appearance is passable,” Xiao Luan murmured, making Yu Xiaoduo secretly pleased. It seemed the first impression wasn’t bad. But given that Gu Wan’er had messed up a blind date before, this might not work out either. So she wouldn’t get her hopes up too high.
After waiting for a long time, Gu Wan’er still hadn’t returned from paying the bill. Yu Xiaoduo found it strange. Then suddenly, Gu Wan’er’s angry shouts came from outside again. No way.
“Oh? This guy knows how to fight?” Xiao Luan suddenly laughed, seeming not at all displeased.
With her mediocre skills, she could only handle small-time thugs. But that should be enough.
The two walked out of the small private room. Many people stood around watching the show. Gu Wan’er stood in front of several girls, and those girls seemed to have been beaten—their hair was messy and their clothes disheveled.
The attackers were a group of middle-aged men, at least seven or eight of them. They were broad-shouldered and thick-waisted, with floral tattoos on their arms. One even had green hair. They looked fierce and menacing. The men around didn’t dare to interfere.
Yu Xiaoduo thought to herself that Gu Wan’er would play the hero saving the beauties, and could show off in front of Xiao Luan. Killing two birds with one stone. I underestimated you.
Xiao Luan beside her directly took out her phone and started filming.
“Already filming? Seems you’re very interested in him,” Yu Xiaoduo teased with a laugh.
Xiao Luan said calmly, “It’s alright. But filming is just to preserve evidence, so that saving the beauties doesn’t turn into a mutual brawl.”
Yu Xiaoduo noted Xiao Luan’s attention to detail. Seems she wasn’t just good at dancing.
“By the way, when did you learn martial arts?” Xiao Luan asked.
“All after arguing with you.”
Xiao Luan made a sound of acknowledgment and said nothing more. If he had known it before the arguments, then she would have had something to say—too good at pretending.
“Kid, you dare to interfere with Brother Hu’s business? You want to die?!” A fat man weighing two hundred jin pointed at Gu Wan’er and shouted viciously, still holding an unopened beer bottle.
“Playing hero comes with a price. In this area, Brother Hu is king.”
Brother Hu swayed unsteadily nearby, his hair slicked back. “Little bastard, looking for death? Get him! If he dies, I’ll take responsibility!”
Gu Wan’er spat. “A bunch of men bullying a few women—what kind of behavior is that? And you call yourself Brother Hu? More like Sick Cat!”
“You dare curse Brother Hu? Kill him!”
Gu Wan’er twisted her neck. With her own body, she wouldn’t dare take on seven or eight people alone. But with Yu Xiaoduo’s body, she had that confidence.
Facing the man charging at her, Gu Wan’er kicked him right in the crotch. Yu Xiaoduo couldn’t help but wince. That was brutal.
Xiao Luan chuckled softly. “His fighting style is quite unique.”
Of course it was unique. A woman going to fight—the best way to take down a man was to kick him in the crotch.
But it had to be said, Gu Wan’er’s grappling was very standard. She grabbed the opponent’s wrist and twisted. With a crack, she actually broke it. Yu Xiaoduo swallowed hard. That was way too ruthless.
Gu Wan’er wanted to say she hadn’t controlled her strength properly. With her own body, she would have only caused pain. But in Yu Xiaoduo’s body, that force directly snapped the opponent’s wrist.
Xiao Luan suddenly shouted at the men around them, “All of you just stand there watching the show. It’s because of your cowardice that these people’s arrogance keeps growing.”
“Wan’er, film for me.” With that, Xiao Luan also went to help, leaving Yu Xiaoduo dumbfounded.
Gu Wan’er watched Xiao Luan walk toward her, a long-lost smile appearing on her face. She remembered when she used to be bullied by thugs, it was always Xiao Luan who drove them away. She was like a female hero.
Xiao Luan naturally saw that smile too and found it strange. It was clearly their first meeting, yet it felt like they had known each other for a long time.
Yu Xiaoduo held up her phone and shouted, “Even a woman has gone up to help. What are you men still standing around for? Charge in and fight!”
“Let’s see who dares to interfere. I’ll block your door every single day!”
The men who had been itching to move immediately stopped again. They were all ordinary people. Offending a group like this would bring endless trouble. At most, they could help call the police.
Xiao Luan wasn’t afraid at all. She said calmly, “You handle the two on the right. I’ll handle the three on the left.”
“Maybe I should handle those three…”
Before he could finish, Xiao Luan said coldly, “Don’t underestimate women.” With that, she took the initiative to attack. Gu Wan’er smiled helplessly. Still the same as always.
What surprised Yu Xiaoduo was that Xiao Luan actually knew some fighting techniques—several levels above Gu Wan’er. Especially that move—Black Tiger Claws the Throat. That two-hundred-jin Brother Hu nearly suffocated.
“You two just wait. I’ll beat you every time I see you. Brother Hu, let’s retreat first.”
Just as the spirited young man finished speaking, Xiao Luan’s size thirty-six shoe landed on his forehead. “You beat people up and then want to leave? It’s not that cheap!”
At that moment, police sirens sounded.
Brother Hu’s expression changed. When he saw the police officers arrive, he immediately started crying and complaining. “They hit us! This man and woman are too brutal! My hand is broken! Give me justice!”
Yu Xiaoduo thought Brother Hu should quit the gang life and go into acting. He would absolutely shine as a villain.
Anyone who didn’t know better would really think two people had taken down seven or eight.
But acting like this was useless. The shop had surveillance cameras, and many people around were filming.
One young man with glasses immediately shouted, “These people attacked those girls first! This big brother and big sister stepped in to stop them.”
Big sister?
Xiao Luan completely could not accept such a title.
