Let’s Squander A Billion First!

Chapter 1707: Chapter 1707: Born in the Corner (21)

Sang Yu’s face didn’t really have any injuries, just some scratches on his hands and some bruises on his body, looking as if he had been kicked.

Chuzheng glanced at the group of youths huddled together, eyes dark.

Turning her head, the darkness disappeared.

”Can you get up?”

Sang Yu: ”...”

He wasn’t that much of a loser.

Just as Sang Yu was about to get up, Chuzheng said again, ”You better sit down for now.”

Sang Yu: ”???”

Chuzheng got up and walked over to the youths, asking slowly under their horrified gazes, ”Who started the fight just now?”

Youth: ”...”

Nobody spoke, and at this moment, they looked at Chuzheng as if she were a monster.

Chuzheng patiently waited for a moment, and when no one spoke still, she concluded, ”Since no one wants to confess, let’s do it together then.”

Suddenly, a youth pointed at the person next to him, ”He... he started it! I didn’t do anything.”

The accused immediately glared at him angrily.

The youth trembled, not wanting to, but in this situation, self-preservation was his priority.

All camaraderie had to take a backseat.

”He also joined in, it was the three of them, we didn’t do anything.”

”Yes, yes, we didn’t do anything.”

Quickly, those who hadn’t participated saved themselves by ratting out their companions.

Chuzheng stood in the Dark with her arms crossed, her voice piercing through the darkness like a Grim Reaper from Hell, cold enough to chill their hearts: ”Just like how they beat him up, you beat them up.”

This was directed at those who hadn’t participated.

The few of them exchanged glances.

Isn’t this making them fight each other?

And those who had started the fight were just left with anger.

As they hesitated, Chuzheng added, ”Otherwise, if I make a move, you’ll all suffer together.”

Remembering how they had betrayed once already, even if they got out, it certainly wouldn’t be considered forgotten.

So...

They looked at their former companions, and now they could only apologize. After all, everyone was selfish, and they simply didn’t want to drag themselves down.

One youth turned and kicked the nearest companion.

Suddenly, the small, dark world was filled with the sounds of fighting and cursing.

Sang Yu sat there, watching the blurry figure in the darkness; even when he couldn’t see anything clearly, he could still picture it in his mind.

Chuzheng coldly watched the group fight amongst themselves.

Once the ones who had attacked Sang Yu were down, Chuzheng finally moved, stepping forward.

”Let me ask you a question.”

A youth said flatteringly, ”Please ask...”

Chuzheng: ”Who sent you to attack him?”

Him?

The youth looked over at Sang Yu.

”We just saw him alone...”

Before the youth could finish, Chuzheng kicked him.

That kick wasn’t light, and if it weren’t for his companion catching him, he would have definitely fallen to the ground.

”Think carefully before you speak, because next time I might not know where I’ll kick.”

The girl’s voice was pleasing but emotionless, like a preset program.

In this environment, it seemed even more eerie and strange.

The youth swallowed, ”It’s... it’s a man.”

”Oh? Who?”

The youth shook his head frantically, trembling as he said, ”I don’t know, he suddenly approached us and told us to snatch his bag and destroy the camera inside.”

Chuzheng squinted her eyes slightly.

-

The neon-lit street was still bustling with people.

Children ran through the crowd, young and pretty girls took selfies with their phones, couples shared a cup of milk tea, the staff shouted about food samples...

This street was filled with commercial hustle and bustle.

Chuzheng supported Sang Yu with one hand, ”What were you doing here?”

Sang Yu didn’t speak, his head lowered, concealing his expression.

”Do you know the person they described just now?”

Although the youth didn’t know who that person was, he described his appearance and clothes.

Sang Yu finally spoke, ”I know.”

”Who?”

Sang Yu was silent for a few seconds, ”Little classmate, this matter doesn’t concern you, so don’t ask anymore.”

Chuzheng: ”...”

If I don’t ask, you’ll turn dark!

Sang Yu refused to say, and no matter how much Chuzheng asked, it was no use.

Thinking about it, they hadn’t known each other for long, who would talk about such matters with a stranger?

Chuzheng found a pharmacy, bought some medicine, and pulled Sang Yu to sit on a nearby bench.

She took Sang Yu’s hand and disinfected and applied medicine.

When it came to his body, Sang Yu was uncomfortable, ”I can do it myself.”

Chuzheng, annoyed, ”Do you have eyes on your back?”

”???” Sang Yu was first puzzled, then understood what Chuzheng meant. He had indeed been kicked on the back a few times, and it was faintly aching now.

Chuzheng turned him around and unceremoniously lifted his shirt.

Sang Yu seemed to exercise regularly, and his physique under the clothes was impressive.

Sang Yu felt Chuzheng’s finger pads brushing over his skin, the coolness in the air morphing into a strange current as her fingers passed.

”Done.”

Sang Yu snapped awake.

The shirt was put back, and the faint scent of alcohol lingered at the tip of his nose. He awkwardly turned his head.

Chuzheng sat beside him, nonchalantly washing her hands with water.

For her, the previous incident wasn’t odd at all, she was simply helping someone apply some medicine.

Sang Yu took a deep breath, slowly exhaled, ”Why were you there today?”

”Passing by.” I was specifically looking for you, you see how good I am to you? Where else can you find someone like me, be grateful.

Sang Yu: ”That place is very secluded.”

Oh, you know it’s secluded!

”Since you know it’s secluded, why did you go there?”

Sang Yu: ”...”

Sang Yu quickly changed the subject, ”Thank you today. Let me treat you to something to eat.”

Chuzheng glanced at him, neither agreeing nor refusing.

Sang Yu took that as a yes and took her to a nearby shop to eat.

While eating, Sang Yu proactively asked her, ”You mentioned before you wanted to take photos, what style do you want?”

”Anything, you decide.” I’m not really there to take pictures, just wanted an excuse to get your contact information.

”...” Sang Yu was silent for a moment, ”Then I’ll contact you when I return.”

”Okay.”

-

Chuzheng returned to the hotel, Bai Shuwen was already gone, and Miao Miao Miao was holding her phone, chatting with someone and laughing uninhibitedly.

It seemed the previous trauma had completely healed.

”Xiao Chu, you’re back.” Miao Miao Miao climbed out of bed, her eyes glowing, ”Wuwuwu, as a token of appreciation, I’ll offer myself to you.”

Chuzheng shockingly refused, ”No.”

”How can you reject me?” Miao Miao Miao knelt on the bed, striking a seductive and charming pose, ”I’ll keep you company tonight.”

Chuzheng: ”...”

Get lost!

Miao Miao Miao joked for a bit, then quickly straightened her clothes, ”Xiao Chu, really thank you. If it weren’t for you... I...”

Miao Miao Miao didn’t dare to imagine further.

She didn’t know what would have happened if Chuzheng arrived a few minutes later.
