Chapter 36: Chapter 36: You Look So Cool When You Fight
Chen Tianlong’s figure pressed closely against the wall, darting out into the grass in front of the factory, then crawled forward a short distance.
Tang Qiqi covered her mouth, utterly astonished. Every move this guy made was so fluid; he was clearly a soldier. She truly hadn’t expected, planning a one-night stand tonight, that she’d meet up with a soldier. It left her feeling a bit awkward.
Moreover, this guy charged in all by himself. Was he planning to take on ten by himself?
Tang Qiqi watched the direction where Chen Tianlong disappeared, feeling a strange excitement. This guy was truly amazing. He could use every piece of vegetation around him as camouflage, swiftly reaching the warehouse wall, and then silently approached the two people at the entrance.
In the gaze of Tang Qiqi, a shadow flashed, and the two figures silently collapsed to the ground.
"Whoa!"
Upon seeing this, Tang Qiqi was so excited that she almost exclaimed, quickly covering her mouth, though her eyes sparkled with admiration.
This enigmatic man before her was the most impressive person she had ever encountered so far. Due to an upbringing different from most, she especially revered physical prowess, or she wouldn’t have learned taekwondo.
In her family, she often witnessed scenes of fighting. Tired of it, she desired to go out and enjoy campus life, and she hadn’t seen such a strong man in a long time.
Chen Tianlong, tonight, let Tang Qiqi realize that there is no strongest, only stronger. Even those who were her father’s right-hand men might not be a match for him.
While pondering, Chen Tianlong moved from the entrance into the warehouse, taking down six people single-handedly without alerting a single bandit, leaving them unconscious.
The remaining four on the second floor were the crucial individuals since they had the hostage. Chen Tianlong couldn’t act rashly.
At this moment, seeing that the warehouse on the first floor was empty, Tang Qiqi shot forward. Hearing the sound, Chen Tianlong turned his head and, seeing Tang Qiqi rushing over with a broad smile, he was rendered speechless.
"Didn’t I tell you to stay where you were? Why are you running over here?" Chen Tianlong whispered.
"Oh, if you can disobey orders, why should I obey you?" Tang Qiqi pouted but then blushed and looked down: "Sorry, I got excited and ran over. You looked so handsome fighting!"
"..."
Chen Tianlong was at a loss for words. In this situation, she still had the mood to be infatuated. Her psychological quality seemed pretty good.
"Alright, here’s the plan. You stay here and keep watch while I climb in through the window on the other side. When you hear the sounds of fighting, go up slowly and get the hostage away if you don’t see anyone around!" Chen Tianlong instructed.
"Mm, okay."
Seeing Chen Tianlong’s serious demeanor, Tang Qiqi nodded her head like a chick pecking at grain.
In the room on the second floor, there was only a chair, on which a young man sat, crossing his legs, a cigarette dangling from his mouth, half-closed eyes, not sure what he was looking at.
Nearby, two burly men stood, clearly some kind of toughies. The last one had a sharp face, staring ahead lecherously, looking quite sordid.
Not far from them, in a corner, was a woman in a purple long dress, with her hands and feet bound, unable to move.
Her mouth was taped shut, eyes lifeless, showing a hint of despair.
Chen Tianlong only glanced briefly, and his heart trembled. This person was none other than Wu Mengting, whom he’d met at a class reunion not long ago.
What’s going on with her?
Could she be the roommate that little girl mentioned?
Thinking it over, Chen Tianlong felt it made sense. They were both students and about the same age.
Wu Mengting had gone shopping with Tang Qiqi, and after coming out and passing by a park, Tang Qiqi suddenly had an urgent call of nature and went to the toilet, directly placing her bag and a stylish hat on Wu Mengting’s head.
But this way, the criminal intending to capture Tang Qiqi grabbed the wrong person, taking Wu Mengting away. It was only after getting in the car that the criminal realized they had caught the wrong person and immediately threatened Wu Mengting to call Tang Qiqi, telling her to come and get her and not to alert the police, or they’d kill her.
As for why these people wanted to capture Tang Qiqi, Wu Mengting had no idea. Right now, all she felt was terror.
"Boss, this young chick is quite a catch. It’d be a pity to just let her sit there idly. Tang Qiqi, that chick, is coming, but there’s no way she can escape, so let me have a go with this beauty," said the sleazy man with an evil grin.
Hearing this, Wu Mengting’s body trembled, imagining the horrifying nightmare awaiting her from the menacing tone.
"Alright, if any of you guys want to have a go, go ahead then, anyway, I’m only interested in that brat Tang Qiqi," said the guy referred to as the boss, nonchalantly.
Upon hearing this, Wu Mengting’s tears fell, her face streaming with tears as she closed her eyes in hopelessness...
From the front came some grim laughters, and after a while, footsteps could be heard, clearly someone was approaching. At this moment, Wu Mengting was frightened out of her wits, too scared to even raise her head, utterly desperate.
She even considered biting her tongue to commit suicide but didn’t dare because she feared the pain, unable to steel her resolve.
"Mengting, I’m here to rescue you."
Just as Wu Mengting felt her breath about to stop out of fear, suddenly the voice of her friend Tang Qiqi rang in her ears. She looked up abruptly, seeing Tang Qiqi burst in.
This girl had listened outside for a while, hearing only the lecherous laughter, and could not stand it any longer, rushing into the room.
At this moment, Chen Tianlong, hiding outside the window, was seething with rage at this silly girl. Originally, having found the perfect opportunity to strike and complete the mission, this foolish girl ruined it.
As the saying goes, it’s not the god-like enemies you fear but the pig-like teammates.
Seeing Tang Qiqi’s sudden appearance, the boss was also taken aback. With six men guarding downstairs, how did she get in?
However, after a brief adjustment, the boss sneered, "You’re finally here, it seems you have some sense of loyalty, brat. Let’s have fun together, haha."
"Situ Yun, you’d better let Wu Mengting go right now, or else I’ll make you regret it," Tang Qiqi knew Chen Tianlong was nearby, so she got bolder.
Hearing this, Situ Yun licked his lips and slowly walked towards Tang Qiqi, grinning slyly, "You’re going to make me regret it? Then let’s see how I play with you tonight."
"You..."
Wu Mengting could sense that Situ Yun was for real. This guy was from the Assassin Group, having attempted to capture her several times unsuccessfully, but now he had cunningly captured her roommate to lure her out.
