Chapter 1239: Chapter 1238: Got My Hands Dirty
Ye Qiu’s gaze turned to the view outside the window. The nightscape of the Great East Sea, particularly by the banks of the Huangpu River, looked like a beautiful painting from up high in the building.
"Ye Qiu, what would you like to eat? I’ll get it for you."
Wang Leshan said.
"You go ahead, I’ll get it myself."
Ye Qiu got up, walked over, and casually picked some food. He had been to many buffets before, like the ones in Jinling, which weren’t bad either, it was just a different environment.
When Wang Leshan brought the food back and sat down to eat with Ye Qiu, she asked, "Isn’t East Sea beautiful?"
"Looks pretty good."
"Why don’t you come to East Sea to develop?"
Wang Leshan suggested.
Ye Qiu looked at her and finally shook his head, saying, "It’s impossible now, I don’t know about the future."
Ye Qiu’s friends, the young ladies around him, were all in Jinling, some even students at Jin University. As for the future, he didn’t know.
It was apparent that there was a significant difference between Jinling and East Sea. Perhaps one day he might consider developing in East Sea.
Of course, looking further, Ye Qiu knew he might still return to the Heavenly Court Imperial Medical Bureau. He just didn’t know when that would be.
Being able to live once again in this life, he was sure to make the world astonished, and to make the people around him among the best in the world.
Although he had no relation to them, after inheriting the body of the original Ye Qiu and gradually developing feelings for the young ladies around him, things naturally became different.
Seeing Ye Qiu lost in thought, Wang Leshan didn’t know what he was thinking about.
However, in this prosperous Great East Sea, surprisingly, she didn’t have a close friend. If Ye Qiu could come to East Sea, at least she would feel more at ease.
As the two of them ate and chatted, Wang Leshan also asked the server to bring two glasses of red wine. Having paid so much money here, Wang Leshan naturally felt like eating more; otherwise, it would indeed be a waste.
The wine, as soon as Ye Qiu took a sip, was astringent and sour, very hard to drink. But given the price of the buffet, it was impossible to offer Viscount Red Wine.
However, Wang Leshan thought it was okay.
Apart from his attire looking a little different, in other aspects Ye Qiu seemed perfect to Wang Leshan.
The two of them ate for almost two hours, feeling very full, and since it was time to leave, they prepared to head back.
"I’ll take you back, and then I’ll return to Jinling."
"So soon."
Although it was only a one or two-hour drive on the highway from here to Jinling, it was already past eight at night, so he’d reach Jinling at almost eleven.
Ye Qiu remembered that he had to go out with Ling Fei and Xia Tiantian tomorrow.
Even though Wang Leshan was a bit reluctant, she didn’t say anything.
They took the elevator down, and as they reached the underground parking lot, Ye Qiu immediately sensed something was off.
"Wait a moment, get in the car first."
"Ye Qiu, what’s going on?"
Wang Leshan asked.
However, Ye Qiu then saw five people getting out of a sedan, heading towards him.
Ye Qiu pulled out the car key and opened the door to the Land Rover, letting Wang Leshan get in first. There might be some violence later, which wouldn’t be suitable for Wang Leshan to see.
Seeing this, Wang Leshan wanted to leave, dragging Ye Qiu along.
But there weren’t just those five people; three more people showed up from behind, making it eight in total, surrounding them from all directions.
It seemed difficult for Wang Leshan to leave now.
"Ye Qiu, let’s call the police!"
Wang Leshan suggested.
"No need."
These punks in front of him were like ants to him, easily dealt with.
Of course, he knew these people were likely called here by Sun Hao; he just didn’t know if their target was only him or if Wang Leshan was involved too.
As Wang Leshan nervously leaned closer to Ye Qiu, the others had already closed in, with their leader making a move and saying, "Cripple him!"
These people acted immediately, initially planning to ambush him, but they weren’t aware of Ye Qiu’s descent. Moreover, there were other people at the elevator entrance, so they waited for Ye Qiu to arrive before making their move.
One man swung an iron pipe as thick as an arm towards Ye Qiu, scaring Wang Leshan to the point of almost fainting. She felt she had really brought trouble to Ye Qiu.
However, before the pipe could hit Ye Qiu, he grabbed it, yanked it away, and struck it hard against the man’s right leg.
"Crack!"
"Ah!"
The young man’s right leg was directly broken.
These people were ruthless, but Ye Qiu was even more ruthless. Knowing he wouldn’t kill them, he simply crippled them, knowing he could heal them later.
"Damn, kill this kid."
The leader tossed away his cigarette, motioning to the others.
The other minions pulled out pre-prepared iron rods, pipes, fruit knives, wrenches, and so on from their car and rushed towards Ye Qiu.
With Wang Leshan on the verge of tears, not knowing what to do, she had no idea how Ye Qiu managed to pull her aside and knock those men to the ground.
"Get in the car and wait for me first."
With Wang Leshan beside him, he couldn’t make a move. Seeing the scene in front of her, Wang Leshan was almost in shock. As she clutched Ye Qiu’s car key, she hurried into the Land Rover.
With Wang Leshan out of the way, Ye Qiu could finally teach these punks a lesson and vent his anger properly.
The guys, just beaten down by Ye Qiu, tried getting up again, only to be knocked away when Ye Qiu harshly kicked one into a car, rendering him immobile. The others then realized this guy had some skills.
"Hit him from behind!"
The leader ordered the attack.
Ye Qiu picked up a wrench from the ground and hurled it at the leader’s head.
’Crash!’ It struck the man’s face precisely, causing blood to stream down his head, and in panic, the leader touched his bleeding face as Ye Qiu kept knocking the others to the ground with his bare hands, picking one up single-handedly and throwing him against the sedan.
Among the eight men, apart from the leader who was bleeding from the head due to the wrench, the other seven were left immobile after being beaten by Ye Qiu.
If it weren’t for not wanting to draw the police’s attention here in East Sea, Ye Qiu would have punished them further.
Before getting into his car, Ye Qiu approached the leader, grabbed his hair, lifted his head, and said, "Tell your Young Master Sun to watch his step. Also, each of you should prepare a million and head to Jinling Affiliated Hospital in three days to find Doctor Ye for treatment, or else you’ll wait to die."
"You, you!"
The leader pointed at Ye Qiu, speechless, his eyes obscured by the blood flowing down his face.
"Remember what I just said, or you and your brothers can report to King Yanluo."
Ye Qiu released him, expressing disgust, "Got my hands dirty."
