The Maybach finally stopped amidst Yidie’s frantic screaming.
Before the car had fully stopped, Yidie kicked open the door. Fortunately, the driver was respectful of Ren Yuanhao, which prevented him from showing a grimace.
After all, kicking a car worth over ten million yuan would still cause Ren Yuanhao some heartache with his current financial situation.
“Wow~”
Yidie clutched her unusually cramping stomach, as if she were about to vomit everything she had eaten all day.
“Tsk tsk tsk, what a shame, that delicious roasted whole lamb is gone just like that,” Ren Yuanhao said slowly while stroking Yidie’s back.
“Even now, you’re still teasing me~ Wow~” Before Yidie could finish speaking, she vomited again.
“Forget it, you’re a cultivator after all, you should be able to regulate your breathing and balance your stomach acid, right?” Ren Yuanhao sighed and then injected his true qi into Yidie’s body. Instantly, a gentle and neutral energy circulated throughout Yidie’s body, and her cramping stomach calmed down significantly under this force.
Ren Yuanhao looked back at the Maybach driver. It was clear that this person was unhappy about having to work at this hour. Although he didn't show it overtly, his slightly blinking and rubbing eyes indicated that this fellow was probably sleeping soundly, only to be woken by a clamorous phone call, then reluctantly put on his formal attire and drove over to pick them up.
Logically, Ren Yuanhao didn't need to pay attention to such a driver. What did it matter if he hadn't slept well? After all, he was just getting paid to work.
However, Ren Yuanhao suddenly recalled the scene of him often staying up late while doing financial reports. He immediately walked up to the driver and said, “Brother, you don’t need to wait for us. My friend isn’t accustomed to riding in vehicles. Please go back and rest.”
The driver looked at Ren Yuanhao with apprehension, thinking he had offended the distinguished guest in some way. His face immediately turned pale. Just as he was about to reply, Ren Yuanhao smiled like the morning sun and dew, instantly dispelling all his worries.
Watching the Maybach drive away, Yidie’s mood instantly improved, and it seemed her stomach cramps had also subsided.
“Maybach, the most comfortable car in the world, and yet it made Miss Yidie carsick. If this gets out, Maybach’s reputation might…” Ren Yuanhao lamented repeatedly, thinking that not only his three-meter-wide bed was gone, but also hot pot, Haidilao, skewers, and hand-torn beef were all ruined.
While deep in thought, a sudden sound of a beating erupted from a dark alley!
“What’s going on?” Ren Yuanhao’s ears were obviously sharper than Yidie’s, but his reaction was not as agitated as hers.
“Bastards, in broad daylight, under the blue sky, oh no, in the dark and windy night, in a pitch-black place, you dare to gang up on one person? This is something this heroic woman will definitely take care of.”
Yidie, spouting a string of disjointed phrases, drew her long sword, looking as if she was about to strike down the criminals. She had even forgotten her own previous disheveled state.
Ren Yuanhao hadn’t expected this girl to be so fiery, and he certainly hadn’t anticipated her maintaining her heroic demeanor while suffering from stomach cramps. He couldn't stop her in time, and she ran off five or six meters.
“Damn it, this hot-tempered girl thinks this is some remote mountain forest!” Ren Yuanhao sprinted, easily catching up to Yidie. However, the scene before them shocked both Ren Yuanhao and Yidie immensely!
Before them lay a woman, surrounded by four men. The men held swords in their hands, all wearing the same black trench coats, with a flame-like maple tree embroidered on their chests with silk thread, dazzling and unapproachable.
“Who are these two beggars? Don’t interfere with our work, get lost.”
“Work? Bullying a young girl is called work?” Yidie, not understanding the situation, naturally didn’t realize that the woman was actually a failed product of injecting Mandara’s gene enhancer.
The man speaking had short, choppy blonde hair and an imposing presence, appearing to be the leader among them.
“We are operating under Yutian. It’s not your place, a little girl, to interfere. I suggest you leave immediately with your little boyfriend, or don’t blame us for being impolite.”
Ren Yuanhao stepped in front of Yidie at this moment. He knew that with Yidie’s temper, she might do something foolish if she got angry later.
“What, your little boyfriend is standing up for you? Oh, this girl is even holding a sword. I’m so scared!” The person speaking was extremely slender, like a scarecrow propped up in a rice field, appearing as if they might be blown away by a strong gust of wind.
“You~” Yidie was enraged. If Ren Yuanhao hadn’t blocked her, her sword would have already pierced this man a hundred times.
Ren Yuanhao glanced again at the woman lying on the ground. Judging by her attire, she was no older than twenty-five. She wore a professional skirt suit, her handbag had been dropped somewhere, the heel of her high-heeled shoe was broken, and there were cuts from sharp objects on her stockings. Her hands were swollen, clearly indicating congestion of qi and blood.
“Four of you, may I ask how you plan to deal with this woman?” The blonde man at the forefront said, “How we deal with her is our business. You two, don’t ask questions you shouldn’t, and get lost while we still have patience!”
“This woman was injected not long ago, and it’s evident from her body that she was forced. Instead of pursuing the culprit, you four are attacking a woman. This doesn’t quite make sense, does it?” Ren Yuanhao, too lazy to listen to his blustering, crouched down and turned the woman over.
There were obvious injection marks on the woman’s neck, like tree knots. As the blood pulsed with her heartbeat, when Ren Yuanhao reached out to touch her neck, the four men simultaneously drew their swords.
“Kid, try to move her again and see what happens?”
Seeing this, Yidie couldn’t care about anything else. She directly drew her sword and attacked. Her swordplay danced, and the four men, not expecting this woman to have some skill, were forced into a rather awkward situation. Her sword swept across, forcing the four of them back.
However, just as Yidie thought she had seized an opportunity and was about to strike them back again, showcasing her prowess, an unusual frequency suddenly erupted from the blonde man’s body. Yidie’s body froze instantly, no matter how she twisted or channeled her energy, she couldn’t move!
“Yo? I didn’t expect you to have some skills, little girl, but I advise you to give up. No one can escape my ability.” The blonde man stepped forward directly, appearing as if he was about to slap Yidie across the face. Unexpectedly, Ren Yuanhao flashed forward and opened his palm, grabbing the blonde man’s hand.
“Let go!” The louder the blonde man shouted, the tighter Ren Yuanhao’s grip became.
“Tsk tsk, this delicate skin, I’m afraid you can’t even hold a knife steadily.” As soon as he finished speaking, Ren Yuanhao flicked at the blonde man’s hand holding the sword. With a seemingly ordinary move, he directly sent the blade flying away.
