Let's Squander A Billion First!-Chapter 1625: Visitors from Beyond (12)

Lou Xing was surrounded, clearly this wasn’t a solution, it would attract more of the Guard Team, or even his former Special Action Group.

So Lou Xing no longer held back, he pushed the Guard Team away and took Qing Dai hostage on the stage.

Qing Dai had been very popular in District Two recently, and many in the Guard Team liked her.

Seeing Qing Dai being held, they all stopped.

"Official Lou, don’t make another mistake!"

"Official Lou, don’t act recklessly, we’re all on the same side here, come back with us, there’s still room to maneuver on this matter."

One after another they pleaded.

But unfortunately, Lou Xing didn’t fall for it; he held Qing Dai hostage and quickly retreated to the back.

Just as the Guard Team was about to catch up, he threw a smoke bomb.

When the smoke cleared, Lou Xing was nowhere to be seen.

-

Lou Xing left Swan Square.

The surrounding light was dim, and the girl’s face, Lou Xing almost mistook.

But soon Lou Xing realized this wasn’t the girl named Chuzheng he knew...

Their faces were extremely similar, but their temperaments were completely different.

Lou Xing cornered Qing Dai in a deserted spot, and coldly asked, "Who are you?"

Her performance had been ruined, and now she was held hostage; anger simmered beneath her calm facade.

Qing Dai relaxed her tense expression and said sweetly, "I’m Qing Dai, you don’t know me?"

Men, they all liked her like this.

She had already got the measure of these people’s personalities.

Lou Xing: "..."

Seemed familiar.

Seemed like he’d heard it somewhere before.

Clearly, Lou Xing was no ordinary man; he looked at her with cold eyes, and Qing Dai for a moment couldn’t decipher what he was thinking.

Compared to others, this man’s looks and skills seemed exceptional...

He was indeed good.

Much more pleasing to the eye than the others.

Since he walked into her trap, she wouldn’t be polite.

"Why is the Guard Team chasing you?" Qing Dai asked with curiosity, without fear or anger.

"None of your business, less questioning." Lou Xing’s gaze swept outside, wary of pursuers.

Thinking it might not be good to be harsh while holding someone hostage, Lou Xing softened his tone, "You can go back from this way."

Lou Xing pointed a path for Qing Dai, then began to leave in another direction. 𝒻𝑟𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝑛𝘰𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝘤𝘰𝘮

No matter what relationship this girl had with that person, he didn’t have time to care.

They would soon search this area.

"Did I let you go?"

Qing Dai’s coy voice came from behind.

Caution gripped Lou Xing; he stopped, looking back.

The girl laughed presumptuously, "I’m quite angry now."

The sense of danger in Lou Xing’s heart kept rising; this person...

The girl who saved him felt cold, so cold it was calm.

No waves, yet no threat.

Her indifference meant she didn’t care about anything.

This girl was different; her smile was gorgeous, yet felt like a venomous snake ready to attack.

Lou Xing’s scalp tingled; he’d never felt this sensation even when facing criminals.

Qing Dai’s figure suddenly flashed, disappearing from in front of Lou Xing’s eyes, appearing before him in the next moment.

His body reacted before his brain; when Qing Dai attacked, he swiftly dodged to the side.

Bang—

Lou Xing crashed into something, the sound amplified in the deserted corner.

Qing Dai formed her fingers into claws, lunging towards his throat.

About to grip him, Qing Dai’s arm suddenly halted, then flipped backward several meters away.

She clenched her fist, arm set defensively as she stared in one direction.

Under dim light, a simply dressed girl strolled over, one hand in her pocket, the other casually dangling, fingers lightly tapping the pants.

"So it’s you." Qing Dai sneered, sharp gleam hidden in her beautiful eyes, "My dear sister, ruining my plans, yet daring to appear!"

Chuzheng ignored Qing Dai, walked to Lou Xing, her cold voice fell, "Are you alright?"

Lou Xing was surprised Chuzheng appeared here; he shook his head slowly, "I’m fine."

Qing Dai didn’t act rashly, as she still felt resistance on her arm.

"Seems my sister knows him." Qing Dai laughed, "I’d have given him up if you’d said earlier."

The resistance on her arm suddenly intensified; she was drawn forward toward the wall.

Qing Dai’s pupils shrank; she propelled off the wall with a kick, flipping back.

Yet the force hadn’t vanished; Qing Dai staggered.

Qing Dai’s face turned dark.

What on earth...

With resolve, she planned to use racial talent and fight Chuzheng properly; if she could kill her here, that’d be best.

Plans clattering, but Chuzheng denied her the chance.

Before leveraging her power, Chuzheng promptly pinned her down.

Strike while iron’s hot.

Waiting for someone to finish preparing before striking, isn’t that foolish?

Unfair?

Reading fast is my fault?

-

Lied on the ground, Qing Dai couldn’t believe she’d become so powerful.

Clenching teeth, "Why aren’t you dead?"

Chuzheng: "I’m blessed."

Qing Dai: "..."

Blessed...

Surviving such an attack...

Truly blessed.

Chuzheng looked down on Qing Dai unemotionally, "Pity I can’t kill you."

Qing Dai: "???"

Though unable to be... a good person, can leave a mark.

A sudden shriek echoed from the deserted corner.

-

Chuzheng and Lou Xing walked out of the dark alley together; Lou Xing’s gaze occasionally fell on her.

Previously assumed she was a rich daughter from District Two or One with her generous spending; now realizing she was also quite formidable in action.

"That person’s your sister?"

"By blood, yes." Other than that, they had no relation; couldn’t be helped, that’s how their race was.

Lou Xing said, "She was strange."

Chuzheng paused half a beat, then asked casually, "How strange?"

Qing Dai hadn’t used racial power, so Good Person Card shouldn’t have noticed?

Definitely didn’t notice!

Don’t scare yourself!

Lou Xing shook his head, didn’t answer.

Changed the subject, "Why were you there?"

"Watching the performance, happened to see you." Chuzheng turned, still knowing the answer, persisted, "Saved you again, shouldn’t you thank me?"

By chance... another chance.

He glanced at Chuzheng, his handsome face serious, "Thank you."

Chuzheng was silent for a few seconds, then wordlessly turned away.

Liar!
