Chapter 42

"Hey, little girl, you're so pretty, why don't you come play with us? Weren't you just about to go shopping at Gucci? How about this: whatever you want, we'll buy it for you, as a little tip, how does that sound?" A man with hair longer than a woman's, and curly, looked at Li Qingman with a gleam in his sharp eyes. He thought, nowadays, which fashionable girl doesn't like brands? As long as you have money, picking up girls is a piece of cake.

The others looked at Li Qingman's alluring figure, her curves and fair skin, and their minds were filled with various complex images.

"Get lost!" Li Qingman's beautiful eyes glowed with icy coldness, like a proud and icy beauty, showing utter disdain for the few people around her.

"Hey, you're a feisty one, I like that. It makes it more interesting. Today, I'm going to have you, whether you like it or not. If you're smart, you'll come with us, and we'll make sure you have the time of your life. If not, don't blame us for getting rough!" The long-haired man coldly threatened.

Li Qingman had just returned from abroad and was on her way home when she encountered these few punks.

"Don't push your luck!" Li Qingman's lips curled in a cold sneer.

The long-haired man was taken aback, not expecting this girl to be so fiery and stubborn. If she were under him, wouldn't it be even more exciting? "Damn, you're asking for it. Take her away!" he said to his underlings.

"Get lost!" Just as a few of them were about to touch Li Qingman, a sharp, cold voice rang out. Everyone was startled and turned to see a young man running over. Jiang Yu's authority only extended around Jinghai High School, and these local punks didn't recognize him. Seeing Jiang Yu approach, the long-haired youth walked over to him: "What the hell, are you looking for a fight? Do you know who I am?"

"I don't see anyone, just a bunch of trash," Jiang Yu said with a cold laugh.

"Damn! Looks like you're really asking for it! Get him, give him a lesson!" The long-haired man said to the others.

The underlings, seeing Jiang Yu's student-like appearance, thought he would be easy to bully and moved to attack him. Jiang Yu, with his Cloudy Step technique and the old man's supreme martial arts, didn't need to put in much effort. Soon, several of them were sprawled on the ground.

"Ah!" The long-haired man was stunned, suddenly pulling out a dagger and lunging at Jiang Yu. Jiang Yu was faster, kicking his wrist. There was a "crack" as his hand bone broke, and the dagger fell to the ground. The long-haired man howled in pain.

Jiang Yu sneered and glanced at Li Qingman, who hadn't left.

"Hmph!" To his surprise, Li Qingman coldly snorted, twisted her devilish figure, and walked away.

Jiang Yu's eyes sparkled, and he shook his head helplessly. He didn't know why he had helped that rich girl's sister. Perhaps it was just his natural chivalry.

Jiang Yu came to his senses and walked over to the old man, who looked at him with a strange expression: "Damn, you've really improved! How did you get so fast and responsive?"

"Ah... I, um... I just practiced and got better," Jiang Yu waved his hand casually.

"Damn! You're not telling me, huh? Fine. You can tell me when you're ready!" The old man glared at Jiang Yu.

Jiang Yu chuckled. He definitely couldn't tell him about his supernatural abilities.

"That girl has some background, be careful around her," the old man suddenly said.

"Uh... I know, her family is well-off, and she's cold, an ice beauty. But I won't have anything to do with her from now on," Jiang Yu said with a hint of sadness.

"I'm not talking about that. I mean the organization she belongs to, but I'm not sure yet. Just be careful," the old man said cryptically.

"Organization?" Jiang Yu was startled. Just as he was about to ask, the old man turned and left. Jiang Yu knew he wouldn't tell him unless the time was right, just like he wouldn't tell him about his supernatural abilities. He didn't press further but was surprised that Li Qingman belonged to an organization.

"Jiang Yu!" Suddenly, Jiang Yu heard a soft voice calling him. He turned around and saw Chu Yarou. Jiang Yu was surprised. Why was Chu Yarou here? Given her level, this place wasn't her usual shopping spot.

Thinking about the jade bottle she had given him, Jiang Yu wanted to find a chance to thank her properly, of course, without telling her about his supernatural abilities.

"Are you here to buy clothes?" Jiang Yu smiled warmly, looking at Chu Yarou's empty hands.

"Um..." Chu Yarou nodded softly, embarrassed to say that the clothes here were too expensive for her to afford.

"Great, I'm here to buy some for my grandfather. Let's go together," Jiang Yu said.

"Ah... Okay..." Chu Yarou didn't really want to go with Jiang Yu. She had been looking around, planning to buy a sexy outfit, but the clothes were too expensive. She was about to leave when she ran into Jiang Yu. If she went with him, how would she explain not buying anything? But she couldn't say no.

"Sure, let's go in and take a look. It's my first time here," Jiang Yu smiled.

Chu Yarou blushed and nodded.

"Brat, call me grandpa, do I look that old?" The old man glared at Jiang Yu.

...

Jiang Yu hadn't hit them hard, just wanted to teach them a lesson. The long-haired man was the worst off, with a dislocated hand, in great pain. They quickly got up and ran into a nearby café.

Inside the café, a man with a sleazy look sat, holding a woman who looked like a fairy. The man's hand slid up and down her white, smooth thigh, making her very comfortable.

The man looked up and saw the long-haired man and his underlings running in, looking disheveled. His heart tightened.

"Brother Feng, we got beaten up!" The long-haired man cried.

"What! You got beaten up? Who would dare to beat you? Damn, which organization?"

"Um... just one person," the long-haired man said, ashamed.

"What! One person. You're all useless! You got beaten up by one person? What's wrong with your hand, it's broken? Damn, who is this person?" Wang Feng was also startled.

"No, not anyone important, just a student. And he was shopping with a pretty girl," the long-haired man's voice was barely audible even to himself.

The long-haired man and his underlings were Wang Feng's subordinates. They were supposed to follow Chu Yarou and then kidnap her to beat her up, as Wang Feng had been obsessed with her ever since he failed to do so last time. He was almost driven mad by her. The long-haired man had unexpectedly encountered Li Qingman and had evil thoughts.

"Ah! Damn, a student... wait, what does he look like?"
