Yuan Huai was naturally alert. When he sensed sothing coming at him from behind, he quickly did a forward flip.
The flying knife brushed past his body and embedded itself in the door fra ahead. Yuan Huai could tell the attacker wasn’t trying to kill him; otherwise, the knife wouldn’t have missed by such a margin.
Yuan Huai steadied himself and turned his head, only to see Leng Chan standing there with a calm expression.
"What are you doing?" Yuan Huai said angrily. Although the knife wouldn’t have been fatal if it had hit him, it would still hurt.
"Tell about Lu Xiaofeng," Leng Chan said.
"I don’t know. Don’t ask about it again," Yuan Huai replied, then turned to head to his room.
Leng Chan quickly moved to block Yuan Huai’s door and took the opportunity to pull out the dagger.
"If you don’t tell , I’ll co to bother you every day," Leng Chan stubbornly declared.
Yuan Huai felt helpless and pleaded, "Please, spare . I really don’t know."
"No way, you definitely know," Leng Chan insisted.
Yuan Huai felt exasperated. If Leng Chan stayed here, he couldn’t rest. He hurriedly said, "If you want to know, go ask Xiang Yu."
"How could Xiang Yu, who just joined Hong n, know about past matters? You’re lying to ," Leng Chan said sharply.
"Didn’t you hear him say he joined Hong n before? Earlier than , for sure. He must know," Yuan Huai said earnestly.
Seeing Leng Chan hesitating, Yuan Huai quickly nudged her aside, then entered his room and locked the door.
"Is he really an old mber of Hong n?" Leng Chan muttered. After pondering for a mont, she finally headed towards Xiang Yu’s room.
"Where is Sect Leader Xiang?" she asked Tie Zhuzi and so others sitting in the outer room.
"Resting in his room," Tie Zhuzi replied directly.
Leng Chan hesitated for a mont and then sat on the sofa to wait. After all, Xiang Yu was the Sect Leader of Hong n, and she had to respect his resting ti.
Tie Zhuzi noticed Leng Chan’s icy expression and curiously asked, "Do you need sothing from Xiang Yu?"
Leng Chan sat there motionless as if she hadn’t heard, ignoring Tie Zhuzi. Seeing this, Tie Zhuzi kept silent.
Leng Chan waited on the sofa until eight o’clock in the evening, but Xiang Yu still didn’t co out.
She beca impatient and looked at Tie Zhuzi, "Why hasn’t he co out yet?"
Tie Zhuzi just looked up at the ceiling and ignored her.
Leng Chan’s face hardened, and she addressed Tie Zhuzi, "I asked you a question?"
"I don’t know," Tie Zhuzi turned his head away and replied.
Leng Chan wanted to get angry but rembered her earlier attitude towards Tie Zhuzi. She took a deep breath and said, "It was my fault earlier. I’m sorry."
Tie Zhuzi chuckled and turned his head, "No problem, Xiang Yu will co out in less than a minute. Just wait a bit longer."
Leng Chan looked at Tie Zhuzi in confusion, about to ask why, when Xiang Yu groggily opened the door and ca out.
Leng Chan didn’t know how Tie Zhuzi could tell, but at this mont, she just wanted to clarify one thing.
"Sect Leader Xiang, can I ask you sothing?" Leng Chan asked, standing before Xiang Yu.
Still not fully awake, Xiang Yu nodded and moved towards the sofa to sit down.
At that mont, Leng Chan pulled Xiang Yu’s arm and dragged him into the room.
Tie Zhuzi and Xiao Xuan, sitting aside, could only smile wryly and shrug; they didn’t bother to eavesdrop.
Fully awake from Leng Chan’s actions, Xiang Yu sat at the edge of the bed and said, "What is it? Go ahead."
Taking a deep breath, Leng Chan asked, "Sect Leader Xiang, you joined Hong n a long ti ago. Do you know soone nad Lu Xiaofeng?"
Xiang Yu shook his head with a wry smile, "Who told you I joined Hong n long ago?"
"You said so yourself," Leng Chan answered bluntly.
Xiang Yu awkwardly smiled and scratched his head, "Did I? I must have forgotten."
Seeing Xiang Yu’s expression, Leng Chan felt an unspeakable fury. Clearly, Xiang Yu wasn’t an old mber of Hong n.
"You don’t know him?" Leng Chan asked coldly.
Her heart filled with anger, she had already put aside the fact that Xiang Yu was the Sect Leader of Hong n.
"To be honest with you, I’m just..."
Before Xiang Yu could finish, Leng Chan turned and left, her deanor like that of soone about to commit murder.
Tie Zhuzi and Xiao Xuan were equally puzzled as they watched Leng Chan stomp out.
"Could it be that Xiang Yu and Leng Chan have a thing going on?" Tie Zhuzi muttered.
Just then, Xiang Yu smacked him on the back of the head, saying, "Don’t talk nonsense."
Tie Zhuzi saw Xiang Yu had co out and just chuckled without saying more.
Sitting on the sofa, Xiang Yu looked at Xiao Xuan, "How’s the arrangent coming along?"
Xiao Xuan confidently nodded, "Don’t worry, brother. If they dare co, they won’t leave."
Xiang Yu trusted Xiao Xuan’s capabilities. He leaned back on the sofa and sighed, "I’m so tired."
Tie Zhuzi, Xiao Xuan: "..."
Leng Chan stord out of Xiang Yu’s room, heading straight for Yuan Huai’s. She had been deceived by Yuan Huai and intended to settle the score with him.
Upon reaching Yuan Huai’s room, she saw him dressed and about to leave.
Yuan Huai realized trouble as soon as he saw Leng Chan. He quickly picked up the phone, pretending to call soone, and hurriedly moved toward the door with a sense of urgency.
Leng Chan entered and kicked towards Yuan Huai.
Yuan Huai quickly dodged and shouted, "What are you doing?"
Without a word, Leng Chan struck at Yuan Huai again.
Yuan Huai swiftly evaded and said, "Don’t get wrong. I honestly don’t know when Xiang Yu joined Hong n. We can talk this over."
But Leng Chan didn’t plan to stop; she wanted to teach Yuan Huai a lesson.
Yuan Huai held the phone, ready to call Xiang Yu—his only hope of rescue now.
But before he could make the call, Leng Chan kicked it out of his hand.
"What are you doing? That was a 200 yuan phone I just bought!" Yuan Huai shouted.
Ignoring his protests, Leng Chan continued her relentless attack.
Yuan Huai dodged repeatedly. Fortunately, his body had recovered a lot after training, or else he couldn’t have handled Leng Chan’s assault.
But he still hadn’t fully recovered. When Leng Chan was exhausted and panting, Yuan Huai lay on the sofa unable to move.
"Please, spare , madam. I can’t move anymore," Yuan Huai pleaded.
Seeing him lying there, Leng Chan stepped forward and grabbed him by the neck, "Tell about Lu Xiaofeng, or I won’t let you go."
Just then, gunfire suddenly rang out in the distance...
