Chapter 68: You Are Wu Ya

Cheng Shuili's heart alarm blared.

Wang Sanqiang's movements were too natural, natural to the point of being somewhat deliberate.

Her fingers lightly tapped the baseball bat, ready to attack at any moment.

"Of course."

This is also polite talk, but it's too casual, casual to the point of having no vigilance at all.

Chen Qing Shan turned around without any defense, pointing at the car's underside: "It's just a red-and-blue wire, I don't know how it broke..."

At the moment Chen Qing Shan turned, Wang Sanqiang's smile vanished; he first gave Cheng Shuili a fierce glare as a warning.

Immediately after, he stared hard at Chen Qing Shan, Wang Sanqiang's right hand quickly went to his waist, a cold light flashed...

Cheng Shuili's baseball bat was faster than his knife.

"Bang!"

The solid wooden bat slammed heavily onto Wang Qiang's wrist, the sound of breaking bones clearly audible.

The dagger slid across Wang Sanqiang's other hand, finally falling onto the snow, kicking up a small patch of red snow.

"Ah!" Wang Qiang cried out in pain, stumbling backward.

Chen Qing Shan then reacted, his face instantly turning pale, yet his tone carried a hint of excitement: "Holy shit, this kind of thing really exists? I've never encountered it before!"

Cheng Shuili: "???"

What is this big idiot sighing about?!

"Step back!"

Cheng Shuili shouted sternly, at the same time taking a swift step forward, sweeping the baseball bat sideways toward Wang Sanqiang's knee.

She used only fifty percent of her strength for this strike, but the attribute points bonus made the bat enough to shatter an ordinary person's leg bone.

Wang Sanqiang barely dodged sideways, then pulled another small knife from his boot with his left hand.

"You bitch!" he snarled viciously, completely dropping the friendly pretense: "I originally only wanted to kill that old thing!"

Before Cheng Shuili could say anything, Chen Qing Shan objected, shoved open the car door and slammed it hard into Wang Sanqiang's face: "You motherfucker, you're the old thing—I'm only twenty-eight this year!"

Cheng Shuili was genuinely shocked as well; Chen Qing Shan looked like he was over thirty!

He was even approaching forty!

Twenty-eight? Cheng Shuili's face wrote disbelief.

Chen Qing Shan grew anxious, raised his hand and delivered a standard Military Body Fist punch, landing hard on Wang Sanqiang's temple, making the man see stars.

Wang Sanqiang staggered a few steps, then shook his head hard trying to clear his head, only to be hit again by Chen Qing Shan's heavy punch to the face.

Now Wang Sanqiang was completely still, his whole body falling backward onto the snow, kicking up a flurry of snowflakes.

Chen Qing Shan glanced, saw the trouble was resolved, immediately turned to Cheng Shuili with sincere and earnest eyes: "I really am twenty-eight this year!"

Who cares how old he is?

Cheng Shuili gripped the dagger and delivered a finishing blow.

【Player Wang Sanqiang killed, obtained 25% of Player Wang Sanqiang's supplies!】

His off-road vehicle vanished before the two of them, leaving only some supplies scattered on the snow.

Chen Qing Shan stared dumbfounded, utterly incoherent: "You... you killed a person... you just killed him like that?"

"What else?"

Cheng Shuili glanced at him; this twenty-eight-year-old uncle is really strange.

Military Body Fist, auto mechanic, a face full of beard yet insisting he's twenty-eight!

"It's true you saved me just now, but you can't just kill him like that, can you?"

Cheng Shuili hauled items over to his own shopping cart one trip after another; hearing this, he snorted: "If I don't kill him he'll die anyway, better to loot some supplies to contribute."

"How so? You think it shouldn't be killed?"

Cheng Shuili narrowed her eyes; she had originally thought he was a promising talent, but didn't expect him to make a big fuss over killing someone.

Her current four-person squad indeed lacks someone who deeply understands vehicles; if his temperament were right, Cheng Shuili planned to add him as a friend.

After all, anyone's car can break down.

This is also why Cheng Shuili rescued him just now.

"No no," Chen Qing Shan shook his head, "I'm wondering why you stabbed his heart? Shouldn't you have slit his throat?"

Friends who often kill know that the neck is the most obvious target, while the heart lies in the chest cavity, mostly on the left, rarely on the right, making it uncertain!

Chen Qing Shan was just puzzled about this.

Cheng Shuili fell silent for a moment, then gave him a deep look.

Is this what a trained person is like?

Learned it.

"Want to add as a friend? Benefactor, tell me what you need, I'm also someone who repays kindness."

Chen Qing Shan waved his hand, leaning against the open car door, his eyes full of sincerity.

Cheng Shuili fell silent for a moment.

Might as well add him; more friends, more paths.

Friends who do auto repair aren't that common either.

She moved the last bit of supplies into her shopping cart, sat in the driver's seat, and announced her ID.

"My ID is Wu Ya Zuo Fei Ji; what's yours? Let me verify."

Chen Qing Shan plopped straight onto the snow.

His mouth hung open wide enough to fit an egg; his lips moved twice before he made a sound.

"Wu... Wu Ya Zuo Fei Ji?!"

Just her voice is a bit hoarse.

「You're Wu Ya? 」

Chen Qing Shan lunged onto the windshield, his eyes locked on Cheng Shuili, not at all worried that she might suddenly start the shopping cart.

「Otherwise? 」

Cheng Shuili had guessed his reaction would be strong, but she hadn't expected it to be this strong.

His emotions were too complicated—shocked, helpless, and with a hint of not-so-obvious anger.

It seemed as if Cheng Shuili had cheated him out of his supplies.

"No way?"

Cheng Shuili thought it over; she wasn't that kind of bad person. Doing business has always been about conscience—she always gave full value.

Moreover, when she went to trade, most of those people, seeing she was Number One, a publicly announced big shot, openly raised her prices.

「I am Qing Shan Yuan Xing. 」

Cheng Shuili: "..."

Indeed, she had cheated him.

Chen Qing Shan now looks like a helpless old man.

"What to do?"

Yesterday he had sworn to thoroughly teach a lesson to the enemy who stole his supplies, but suddenly he turned into his own lifesaver!

His resentful gaze made Cheng Shuili feel a bit guilty.

She lightly coughed twice, "Hurry up and move the car—you've delayed me for a long time."

"Ah, okay, okay!"

Chen Qing Shan instinctively agreed; the next moment, he and that weird vehicle vanished.

The road merger ended.

Cheng Shuili watched the highway return to quiet, and she let out a genuine sigh of relief.

Come to think of it, it's not her fault; it's because their organization demanded Chen Qing Shan's sacrifice—blame has a source, debt has an owner, right?

Cheng Shuili gave a light laugh, pressed the accelerator, and continued forward.

Not long after it went quiet, private messages started ding-donging nonstop. Cheng Shuili guessed they were from Chen Qing Shan.

She opened them and, sure enough...

【Qing Shan Yuan Xing】: Benefactor, speak freely if you need help. I'll definitely help if I can, and I'll share what I know!

【Qing Shan Yuan Xing】: Except for my bottom line when bargaining.

【Qing Shan Yuan Xing】: I'm really twenty‑eight, I just look a bit anxious.

Cheng Shuili didn't reply; she isn't much of a talker—just seeing it is enough.

As for Chen Qing Shan, is he in his twenties or thirties?

None of her business.
