Chapter 50

Li Hong kept his head down and gritted his teeth without a word. Third Brother didn't care, just let out a cold snort, turned his head, and prepared to leave.

Li Hong slowly crawled up from the ground, his expression ferocious, and said to me out of the blue: "You've always wanted to know about Su Xueyan, right?"

Hearing Li Hong's words, my expression changed. I rushed right in front of him and demanded: "What do you mean?"

"Nothing special. Come find me alone after school this afternoon, and I'll tell you what you want to know!" Li Hong's complexion didn't change in the slightest. I couldn't judge the truth of his words from his face or eyes at all, but this matter regarding Su Xueyan was simply too important. Whether it was true or false, I had to go.

Third Brother grabbed Li Hong by his clothes and cursed: "Fuck your mother, what are you putting on an act for here? If you know, just say it. Do you take us for fools? Who knows what kind of tricks you're planning to pull?"

Li Hong chuckled and looked at us with disdain: "If you're afraid, you can choose not to come!"

Third Brother still wanted to lay hands on Li Hong, but I held him back and said: "Forget it. I reckon no matter what you do to him now, he won't talk."

Third Brother looked at Li Hong with resentment, threw him onto the ground, and then said to me: "Fourth, you'd better think this through. Who knows what kind of medicine this guy is selling in his gourd!"

I gave Third Brother a look to reassure him that it was fine.

We left the classroom; after all, it wasn't great to stay in someone else's classroom, and class was about to start soon. I figured the teacher would be coming shortly. Although the teachers at this school didn't manage things much, we still had to be careful.

Back in our classroom, Third Brother looked at me and asked: "Are you really planning to go alone this afternoon?"

I nodded. Although it was very likely a trap, I had no choice but to go.

I smiled slightly and said: "Don't worry. I'm not the same person I was before. At the very least, I have the ability to protect myself!"

Seeing my persistence, Third Brother didn't say anything more, only telling me to be careful.

Finally, when afternoon came, just as I was preparing to go find Li Hong, Zhuge Yue suddenly appeared. I looked at her, puzzled: "Why are you here?"

Zhuge Yue's expression wasn't very good. She looked at me for a long time and said: "Are you really going?"

I nodded, my expression firm. Zhuge Yue sighed slightly and said: "I know I can't talk you out of it, but just be careful yourself!"

"I just want to know if I can get what I want this time?" I looked at Zhuge Yue and asked.

Zhuge Yue was speechless. After a long while, she said: "I'm really not a god. I don't know everything. And even if I had the ability to foresee the future, do you think that's something I can just use whenever? Revealing the secrets of heaven comes with a price!"

I scratched my head in embarrassment. My question was indeed a bit absurd. Zhuge Yue was right; she wasn't a god. And recently, I had discovered that I seemed to have become somewhat dependent on her, and this feeling was not good.

Just as I was about to leave, Zhuge Yue suddenly shouted at me: "Remember, if you encounter danger, you must run. Never try to fight it out!"

I waved at Zhuge Yue behind me to show my gratitude.

Arriving at Li Hong's classroom, I found that he had already been waiting there for a long time. Seeing me arrive, Li Hong smiled and said: "If you had come any later, I reckon the person would have been gone!"

"What do you mean?" I didn't quite understand Li Hong's meaning, feeling that this guy was definitely preparing some kind of conspiracy.

"Nothing special. Actually, I don't know anything about Su Xueyan!" Li Hong played with a fruit knife in his hand, his expression indifferent.

"Then you're playing me?" My expression turned ugly.

"Not exactly. If you hadn't come today, you might have witnessed another tragedy. But since you came today, it depends on whether you have the ability to save her!" Li Hong chuckled and stuck the fruit knife into the desk.

"What the hell are you playing at?" At this moment, the feeling in my heart wasn't good; I had a constant feeling that something major was about to happen.

"Nothing. My uncle was beaten by your friend before, and he was in a very bad mood, so he asked me for information on you two. Coincidentally, he saw photos of Su Xueyan and Su Xueya. Su Xueyan is definitely out of the question, but Su Xueya looks quite decent, and my uncle is a man who cherishes beauty, so he wants to find her and 'cherish' her!" Li Hong smiled lecherously.

Hearing this, I flew into a rage and shouted: "You're courting death! If you dare to touch her, I'll never be done with you!"

Li Hong didn't care about my words at all, still saying indifferently: "I think you'd better go quickly, otherwise you won't make it. If you go late, who knows how many people will have walked over her!"

"You bastards!" I cursed loudly, then immediately turned and ran urgently toward Su Xueya's class, while pulling out my phone to dial her number.

But after calling for a long time, no one answered. Arriving at the school classroom, I couldn't find Su Xueya either. Other classmates said she had already gone home.

I quickly chased along the route Su Xueya took home, while continuously dialing her number, but she still wouldn't answer.

In an alley on the road, I saw Su Xueya. I shouted for her with all my might, but because I was quite far away, she might not have heard. However, at this moment, I suddenly saw four or five people following her, two of whom were holding knives and sneaking around, waiting for an opportunity to strike.

Su Xueya seemed to have discovered these people as well; she kept glancing back at them, her pace gradually quickening.

Seeing this situation, I became even more anxious. I increased my speed, ran close to Su Xueya, and hurriedly shouted loudly: "Su Xueya, run!"

Su Xueya seemed to hear my shout and turned her head subconsciously. Seeing the two people beside her suddenly rushing over with knives, she was also startled and hurriedly dodged. At this moment, I also arrived, kicking directly at the person with the knife. However, that person seemed prepared; he turned and punched me directly. My foot and his fist collided directly. I only felt a huge force coming from under my foot. I hurriedly dodged in mid-air and landed beside Su Xueya, looking at these people with a solemn expression. One of them was none other than Li Heng, and the person who had the knife just now also had very strong combat ability. These people were all much more powerful than ordinary people. Suddenly, a terrifying thought occurred to me: were these people targeting me?
