Chapter 71: Chapter 71: One Foot

Zhao Qi’s presence suddenly changed, and his figure turned into a phantom charging towards Ling Feng.

"Down you go!" Zhao Qi shouted lowly, his hands striking towards Ling Feng.

In Zhao Qi’s eyes, being a Level C expert, to use his skills here was to apply a great talent to a petty use!

Zhao Qi’s movements were fast; before the crowd could react, he had already reached in front of Ling Feng.

Ling Feng, on the other hand, made no move, as if he were petrified.

"Damn!" Gu Leng felt a chill in his heart, realizing the extraordinary strength of Zhao Qi’s moves, knowing that a hit would result at least in a serious injury!

A smug smile appeared on Zhao Qi’s lips as he could even feel his fingertips brushing the fabric of Ling Feng’s chest.

But the next moment, a tremendous force struck his abdomen, sending him flying away even faster!

As the look of concern on the faces of Gu Leng and the others had yet to fade, they saw Zhao Qi flying out.

"What just happened?" Everyone was dumbfounded.

Ling Feng calmly withdrew his leg, "You have a good aura, but your attack was too obvious! Did you take me for a fool?"

Zhao Qi crashed to the ground and took a long time to slowly stand up.

Ling Feng’s kick had made his qi surge and tumble, unable to gather his qi.

"Who are you!" Zhao Qi wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth, glaring coldly, "You’re not from the Wild Wolf Club, are you? How dare you obstruct our Taizi Club’s affairs; do you think you can bear the consequences?"

"What now? Can’t win so you start making threats?" Gu Leng’s face was almost unable to suppress his grin.

He had thought he might be in trouble this time, but he didn’t expect Bai Feifei’s boyfriend to be so effective, kicking the opponent’s strongest fighter off the stage with a single move!

"If that’s all the grace the Taizi Club has, then I, Gu Leng, truly look down on it!" Gu Leng stepped forward and said, "What happened today is a matter between us, he’s just a helper I asked for! If you have any complaints, let me hear them!"

Zhao Qi’s expression turned ugly. Gu Leng also had a sizable reputation in the circle. If he had won today, everything would have been easy, but the infuriating thing was that he lost!

As for going back on his word, Zhao Qi had never considered that! After all, the Taizi Club had a considerable reputation in the Yanjing Underground World, and he wouldn’t do such a thing just for the sake of the Taizi Club’s reputation!

"Fine, Boss Gu! We admit defeat this time, but there’s always another time for mountains and rivers to meet. Let’s go!"

In a blink of an eye, Zhao Qi and his men had already left the Wild Wolf Club.

"We won, we won!"

"It’s amazing, we really won!"

As the Taizi Club’s members left, nearly everyone present burst into cheers.

They were all young souls fond of fighting, who had finally found such a place in Yanjing where they could relax their minds; they really loved it here. Moreover, Boss Gu was not only generous but also selflessly shared his fighting skills with them, so they had deep affection for this place.

"Ladies and gentlemen, for today’s victory, we have to thank Feifei’s boyfriend!" Gu Leng said with a smile, "Feifei, aren’t you going to introduce him? Your boyfriend is extraordinary!"

Bai Feifei’s face turned red as she said, "Brother Gu, what are you talking about! We’re just ordinary friends. If you keep making things up, I’ll get angry!"

Bai Feifei looked at Ling Feng with expectant eyes as she spoke.

Ling Feng smiled slightly, "There’s no need for Feifei to introduce me. My name is Ling Feng. I was working abroad before and have recently returned to the country! Feifei and I are good friends!"

Gu Leng reached out his hand, "Thanks for what you did today!"

"Everyone takes good care of Feifei, it’s the least I could do!" Ling Feng shook hands with Gu Leng.

"I’m treating everyone today, no one leaves until they’re drunk!" Gu Leng turned and said to everyone.

"That’s great, Boss Gu is so cool!"

"No leaving unless drunk, and even if drunk, still no leaving!"

...

Gu Leng, with a smile on his face, said to Ling Feng, "Brother Ling Feng, you are our meritorious official today, I must properly toast to you."

Ling Feng waved his hand, "Forget it, I won’t be going. I still have some things to deal with today."

"What urgent matters do you have?" Gu Leng said with a smile, "Today, I mainly wanted to invite you. Don’t I at least get the chance to show my gratitude?"

Bai Feifei also chimed in, "Yeah, Ling Feng, with Brother Gu being so sincere, you can’t just not give him face, right?"

After hesitating for a moment, Ling Feng said, "Well then, I’ll just have to accept the offer graciously!"

...

In a ward at Yanjing First Hospital, a man lay with his body wrapped in bandages, his eyes lifelessly staring out of the window.

Despite the sunny weather outside, his heart remained an endless, icy glacier!

Just then, the door to the ward opened, and a fragrant breeze wafted in, "Guo Xiaodong, how... how are your injuries?"

Although Feng Xin was disappointed in Guo Xiaodong, upon hearing the news that he had been scalded and hospitalized, she hesitated for several days but ultimately still came.

Guo Xiaodong, with his back to Feng Xin, showed a hint of surprise on his face, but it quickly turned to a melancholic expression, "Xiao Xin, lying here alone in the hospital these past few days, I’ve continuously thought of you!"

As he said this, Guo Xiaodong turned around and looked at Feng Xin deeply, "More than once, I’ve hated myself for not persisting, for backing down. If I had persisted, maybe things between us wouldn’t be like this now, right?"

Looking at Guo Xiaodong’s scalded face, Feng Xin’s face flashed with sadness and anger, "Xiaodong, don’t talk like that! Everything is in the past, we can’t go back to before. What’s the use of saying all this now?"

"I hate it so much!" Guo Xiaodong cried as tears streamed down his face, and suddenly slapped his own face hard, reopening wounds that had just started to heal, blood covering his face.

"Ah!" Feng Xin felt a pang of pain in her eyes and quickly went over to hold Guo Xiaodong’s hand, "Xiaodong, what are you doing! Your injury was just getting better, why are you treating yourself like this!"

Guo Xiaodong sobbed, "I hate my own incompetence, for not persisting back then, for missing out on you! Previously my business mishandling led to a slump, and now my face is disfigured... What’s the point of me living anymore?"

Hearing Guo Xiaodong’s "lament," Feng Xin’s face showed a look of pity, "Xiaodong, don’t be like this! The past is gone! We can’t be together anymore, but I can still help with your company!"

"Really?" Guo Xiaodong looked up, surprised, "Xiao Xin, you’re willing to help me?"

Feng Xin sighed. She naturally understood that Guo Xiaodong had put on an act before, but he was, after all, the man she loved the most. Seeing him in his current state, Feng Xin couldn’t bear it, and so she decided to lend a hand, thinking of it as helping an old classmate.
