The Second Descent into Danger
"Ah——" Mu Xingchen let out a deep breath, his body relaxed against the back of the leather chair, his slender and agile fingers gently tapping on the armrest. This was the state where joy overflowed from his heart, Lin Tao smiled knowingly.
"How's that? Know the greatness of Zhuo Mengjun now? Let me tell you, Zhong Yi is a civilized key middle school, can't tolerate people like you being reckless. Your dad is the director of studies, so what? He can't cover up everything! This is a society ruled by law, won't tolerate bullying!" The girl's voice was loud and clear, every word ringing out, forceful and powerful.
To Mu Xingchen and Lin Tao, it seemed like a popular song at the moment. "Hmmm, so her name is Zhuo Mengjun, and she's studying at Municipal No. 1 Middle School." A comfortable smile hung on Lin Tao's lips, but when he glanced at Mu Xingchen the next moment, he couldn't smile anymore. He saw that Mu Xingchen had already pushed open a gap in the car door.
"No! Sixth Young Master!" As soon as the words left his mouth, Lin Tao almost pounced over and pressed down on Mu Xingchen's hand, while using his other hand to firmly shut the car door.
"Lin Tao, what are you doing?" Mu Xingchen looked at him with a mixture of confusion and dissatisfaction.
"Oh, the car is about to start, Sixth Master, where are you going? Isn't it very dangerous to get off like this?" Lin Tao said calmly. However, only he himself knew that his actions were motivated by ulterior motives.
"Oh, nothing. I thought the car would take a long time to arrive, so I was thinking of getting off and taking a stroll." Mu Xingchen suddenly realized that his behavior was a bit abnormal too, he who had always been calm and composed, even if Mount Tai were to collapse on top of him, wouldn't bat an eyelid, why was he losing control today?
Mu Xingchen's composure is not an exaggeration. He has shown remarkable courage and poise since childhood, including being kidnapped at the age of six. In the end, he managed to escape on his own without waiting for the police to find him, and even provided valuable clues to the police, leading to the successful capture of all the criminals.
"The car has started moving, Sixth Master." The car indeed began to move as Lin Tao said this, it seems the congestion ahead had been cleared.
"Hmm." Mu Xingchen just hummed a response, but he couldn't help turning his head to take another look at the girl. He only caught a glimpse of her yellow dress standing elegantly on the street corner, and it was surprisingly striking. Many years later, whenever he recalled that moment, it still brought him an inexplicable sense of joy. It was precisely this fleeting glance that sealed the complicated entanglement between them.
"Meng Jun, let's wait a bit longer for my brother to accompany us together! He'll be here in over half an hour." Du Xinran nervously grabbed Zhuo Mengjun's sleeve. It was already past 10 o'clock after the evening self-study session. Since Zhuo Mengjun helped her teach that female bully Zhang Yue a lesson yesterday, she had been feeling uneasy. She knew Zhang Yue's background very well, and she was far more than just the daughter of the head teacher - she had a very bad premonition that Zhang Yue would definitely take revenge on them severely.
"What's there to be afraid of? I'm here to protect you!" Zhuo Mengjun said fearlessly, and then dragged her hand and ran out of the school.
As soon as they turned into a small alley, they were surrounded by a group of fierce-looking people.
"Meng Jun, I'm scared!"; Du Xinran immediately grasped Zhuo Mengjun's arm tightly, her voice revealing unrelenting fear.
"What's there to be afraid of? What is there to fear?" Zhuo Mengjun clenched her fists tightly, surrounded by five or six robust men. Her personal record was taking on three men bare-handed, which was already at the limit, and those few men didn't even have any martial arts skills. But this person in front of her looked like he had exceptional skills, and there were twice as many people as last time. Moreover, she also had to divide her attention to protect Du Xinran, the difficulty and danger of which could be imagined. Thinking of this, fine beads of sweat seeped out from the palms of her hands.
But she could only hold on, if she also showed fear, then Du Xinran would not be able to get out of here. Besides, in her dictionary, the word "yield" had never appeared before.
"In a moment, I'll count to 3 and you quickly run forward, remember to run fast! Run desperately, nothing and no one can stop your footsteps!" Zhuo Mengjun whispered in Du Xinran's ear.
This was the taekwondo teacher's teaching on how to face an enemy, and its purpose is to make her maintain enough confidence when fighting against the enemy, so that she can enter the battle without distraction and exert all her potential to the greatest extent. Today must be a fierce battle, and she has no choice but to rely on this to have a chance of winning.
"Hmm! These two little girls are quite good-looking, especially the tall one, her figure is simply magnificent! I think she'd make a great concubine for our boss!" said a lecherous-looking fellow with a pointed chin.
