She carried her backpack with one hand, looked at the person blocking her way, and frowned, saying: "What do you want to do?"
Leading the group was a guy with a buzz cut, wearing a hip-hop shirt and holding a cigarette between his lips.
The people around were dressed similarly, clearly gang members.
Even though they were trying hard to look like ordinary thugs, Gu Shengyin still noticed their true nature through their attempt to block all her escape routes.
Ordinary gang members donât operate in such an orderly fashion.
The guy with the buzz cut spat out the cigarette and stepped on it, grinding it with his foot in a fitting manner.
"You, are you Mo Beiye?" The buzz cut guy looked up and down at Gu Shengyin a few times.
After sizing her up, he had to admit that this kid looked quite decent. With such looks, itâs natural for girls to fall for him; no wonder the young lady got involved.
But to dare mess with the young ladyâs feelings...
He hasnât seen many people who think theyâre tough enough to do that.
The buzz cut guy said lazily: "What do we want? Of course, weâre here to give you a beating!"
After saying this, he stopped waffling and waved his hand directly: "Go, donât disable him, but give it your all in the beating!"
Gu Shengyin reacted quickly, immediately swinging her backpack from behind her with one hand, knocking down a person attacking from the left, then threw the backpack aside and started fighting.
This group wasnât going too far; at least they were all coming at her barehanded. If they had knives, she would have had a hard time escaping today.
"Hey, not bad!" The buzz cut guyâs eyes lit up when he saw Gu Shengyinâs move.
Even though he was impressed, he didnât relax his grip.
One versus twelve.
Even though Gu Shengyinâs body had been strengthened and her movements had become agile, she still couldnât avoid getting injured.
However, she only got bruised, while the other side was utterly miserable.
All twelve of them were practically taken down by her, lying on the ground and crying out.
Buzz Cut guy wasnât spared either.
He was half-squatting on the ground, clutching his stomach, which was still aching dully, making it impossible for him to stand up straight.
In comparison, it seemed that only her left cheek was a bit bruised, and she was breathing heavily, leaning against the wall, clearly having the upper hand.
"Not bad, kid!" Buzz Cut guy said.
Initially, he looked at Gu Shengyinâs thin frame and assumed the opponent was just a powerless student. Unexpectedly, she could fight like this!
Looking at Gu Shengyin like this, he felt a sense of appreciation rising in his heart.
Gu Shengyin saw that he didnât seem to have any malice in his expression, and felt relieved.
She knew that for people mingling in the underworld, the key was to be tough. Their principles were simple: they admire those who can fight.
Only after earning respect in a fight can both parties sit down for a proper conversation.
She didnât respond to Buzz Cut, but casually asked: "Now can you tell me why youâre bothering me?"
The buzz cut wasnât hiding anything: "Because someone messed with our young lady. Do you know Yu Qingyue? Thatâs our young lady! You played with her feelings, and unless we give you a beating, the young lady wouldnât feel better."
Actually, Buzz Cut also felt helpless saying this.
On this trip, he originally didnât plan to hide anything from Mo Beiye. As they said, even while hitting you, you need to know why youâre being hit.
Itâs just that the development of events diverged quite a bit from his own imagined script.
