Chapter 1280: Chapter 1279: Wang Zicheng
Very soon, what Lin Xiang did not expect was that before the hired goons got close to Ye Qiu, they were all sent flying and, upon hitting the ground, couldn’t get up in pain.
Ye Qiu came before the leader of the goons, grabbed the man’s collar with one hand, and slammed him hard against a car, causing him to be bloodied and dazed. Then Ye Qiu used the local dialect the man spoke to say, “Do you believe I won’t kill you right now?!”
The goon leader was truly scared now. He was just taking some money to do a job, simply wanting the young man to stay away from Miss Lin, but didn’t expect the other party to be so ruthless.
“No, don’t. I’m just doing this for the money!”
“Speak up, who sent you here!”
“It was Young Master Wang. He offered us five hundred thousand Jilin Te to threaten you to stay away from the young lady of the Lin Family.”
“Which Young Master Wang?”
“Wang Zicheng.”
The other party said.
Ye Qiu seemed to have heard of him before, and upon the other party’s description of Wang Zicheng’s appearance, he already knew. It was the young man who looked like a playboy whom he encountered with Lin Xiang that morning.
Unexpectedly, the other party had gotten people to teach him a lesson so quickly.
Ye Qiu pushed him aside and said, “I’ll give you one million Huaxia Yuan to kill him!”
“I, I don’t dare.”
Considering the Wang Family was influential and wealthy in Singapore, he really didn’t dare to touch Wang Zicheng.
“Hah, so you think I’m easy to bully!”
Seeing Ye Qiu speaking his hometown dialect, he thought Ye Qiu might be a fellow townsman. If someone from his hometown came out, there wouldn’t be many who were simple troublemakers.
So now this goon leader realized he had picked on the wrong person.
“Fellow, spare me. I won’t dare anymore!”
Ye Qiu kicked him again, and when he saw Lin Xiang calling him, he stopped teaching the goons a lesson, but he had already left them something to remember this lesson by.
“The police are here, let’s go!”
The police here checked quite stringently, so not only did Lin Xiang urge Ye Qiu to leave quickly, but the goons also hurried to escape.
However, Lin Xiang had sprained her right foot earlier and couldn’t drive normally.
Once Ye Qiu let her sit in the passenger seat, he drove away from there himself.
Although he had driven luxury cars like Mercedes and Land Rover, it was his first time driving a sports car, and it felt very good, as a light touch on the gas pedal picked up speed quickly.
Yet, Ye Qiu was afraid of being caught by traffic police, so he didn’t speed and as they drove, Lin Xiang sitting in the passenger seat was curiously watching Ye Qiu.
Reflecting on how Ye Qiu held her hand while running, carried her while running, and then piggybacked her while running, she now realized how Ye Qiu was just playing with those goons.
She really couldn’t tell that with Ye Qiu’s thin frame, he could easily take down several small goons, especially in such an environment.
“Why are you looking at me like that?”
Ye Qiu wondered if Miss Lin had quickly fallen for him.
“How can you fight so well?”
“Trained for it.”
“Did they say earlier who wanted to attack you?”
“Wang Zicheng sent them, supposedly giving them five hundred thousand Jilin Te.”
Wang Zicheng? Lin Xiang was infuriated upon hearing that, this reckless idiot, just because he wanted to pursue her, he ordered people to kill Ye Qiu.
In retrospect, Lin Xiang realized the rumors from Malaya University might be true. Previously, many boys wanted to pursue her, but slowly the numbers decreased, with reports that many were taught a lesson by Wang Zicheng, and those boys dared not pursue Lin Xiang again.
Lin Xiang wasn’t interested in those matters but had no favorable impression of Wang Zicheng. This time, the other party’s actions only made her more disgusted. She and Wang Zicheng had no relationship, so who she was with had nothing to do with him.
“I didn’t expect you to be a femme fatale?”
Speaking of Cao Ling as a femme fatale, Ye Qiu thought it appropriate, but Lin Xiang’s looks and temperament were far from comparable to Cao Ling.
Unexpectedly, when he went out with Lin Xiang to have fun, they encountered such troubles.
“What do you mean femme fatale? Are you saying I’m very pretty?”
Lin Xiang shyly asked.
“Just average!”
In Ye Qiu’s view, beauties weren’t that many here, possibly due to the environmental and ethnic differences. Immigrants might be better, but as for those local folks, most didn’t look good, and their complexion wasn’t great.
However, Jiangnan Province was different. Jiangnan Province had always been known for producing beauties, and there were quite a few beautiful women.
When Ye Qiu drove back to the Lin Family villa and stopped, Lin Yazhong hadn’t returned yet and was just now seeing the two coming back.
“Dad, we were just out and got chased by goons!”
“What goons?”
Lin Yazhong thought it was people behind who wanted to kill Ye Qiu.
“It was Wang Zicheng from the Wang Family who paid goons to trouble Ye Qiu. You should make it clear to the Wang Family, I have no interest in Wang Zicheng.”
“What? Wang Zicheng’s so bold to do such things!”
The Wang Family were immigrants too, but Wang Zicheng was now the fifth-generation Chinese, a generation earlier than the Lin Family. The Wang Family had significant investments in rubber, tea, sugar, as well as coffee and tea industries.
Lin Yazhong clearly understood about Wang Zicheng and knew that Wang Zicheng was always pursuing Lin Xiang. Unexpectedly, now he actually ordered people to kill Ye Qiu.
What on earth is going on?
“I was just out with Doctor Ye this morning and was seen by him and his classmates. Later, at the night market, a group of goons I don’t know from which gang chased us. Fortunately, Doctor Ye managed to teach them a lesson.”
“Doctor Ye, I almost got you into trouble!”
Lin Yazhong said.
Ye Qiu had saved his life many times now and informed them of the current financial discrepancies at Lin Mao Group. Unexpectedly, there were still goons chasing him.
“Old Mister Lin, I’m perfectly fine. These goons, I can handle them with one hand.”
“No way, I have to have the Wang Family apologize to you and warn Wang Zicheng. If he dares to act out again, then we’ll just have to call the police.”
As Lin Yazhong personally called the Wang Family, Lin Xiang’s right foot swelled from being twisted and was very painful.
While she was preparing to get the maid to apply some pain-relief and anti-swelling ointment, Ye Qiu asked, “Does it hurt much?”
“A little.”
“Come to my room; I’ll relieve the pain. It will only take five minutes.”
Lin Xiang was hesitant to believe that in five minutes, her sprained right foot could be pain-free. But reflecting on Ye Qiu curing her father, in such severe conditions, he still managed to heal them in a short time.
Ye Qiu supported Lin Xiang to his room and then let her take off her high heels and the stockings she was wearing.
