Chapter 124: You Dropped Something!

Page 1/3

“Hmm?”
Hearing the voices outside the door, Deng Ruyan’s heart skipped a beat, and she instinctively said, “Ling Qiu, wait—”
Before she could finish her sentence, Ling Qiu had already opened the door.
Face to face, Ling Qiu met the eyes of Deng Qianlong, who had just woken up.
However...
Ling Qiu didn’t even glance at Deng Qianlong, instead turning her gaze sideways toward Deng Ruyan. “Wait for what?”
“...Nothing...”
Deng Ruyan smiled bitterly and shook her head.
She wanted Ling Qiu to wait a moment.
She knew her younger brother Deng Qianlong’s personality very well.
“So it’s you! Ling Qiu!!”
Deng Qianlong glared at Ling Qiu, openly showing a hint of hostility!
Ling Qiu gave Deng Qianlong a cold glance; she could guess this young man’s intention with her eyes closed.
According to Deng Ruyan, only four people knew about Yuxin Suo and the Heavenly Scourge Lone Star, including herself. So... if the guess was correct, the entire Deng family was firmly opposed to Deng Ruyan’s marriage to Ling Qiu.
“I warn you! Don’t daydream! You... and my sister are from completely different worlds! Even if you really become the head of the Ling family, you have no right to talk about marriage with my sister!”
Deng Qianlong glared fiercely.
“Qianlong, don’t be rude.”
Deng Ruyan stepped forward and sternly reprimanded him, then turned to Ling Qiu and said, “Ling Qiu, don’t mind him. This is my brother Deng Qianlong; that’s just how he is.”
Ling Qiu was too indifferent to bother with these people or matters. She simply gave a casual “hmm” and walked past Deng Qianlong.
“Huh?!!!”
Deng Qianlong was stunned!
This Ling Qiu...
Actually dared to ignore him?!
This kid... relying on some ridiculous engagement, really thinks he’s a nobody?!
“Stop right there!!”
Deng Qianlong shouted angrily, determined to vent the fury he had been bottling up during those five inexplicable hours of waiting outside the door on Ling Qiu!
He charged forward in a single bound!
One hand grabbed Ling Qiu’s shoulder!
“...”
Ling Qiu stood firm without turning around, lightly tossing out a single sentence: “Deng Ruyan, I’m giving you face.”
As soon as the words fell, Ling Qiu suddenly turned, grabbed Deng Qianlong’s hand, and twisted it sharply!
Crack!
A terrifying crisp sound!
Deng Qianlong’s entire arm was dislocated by Ling Qiu’s twist!
“Ah!”
Deng Qianlong cried out in pain!
He hadn’t even reacted when one arm was ruined!
Because...
Ling Qiu was too fast!
What a joke!
He was a martial artist!

Furthermore... he practiced internal martial arts!
And yet... Ling Qiu dislocated his arm?!
No, impossible!
This useless Ling Qiu must have taken advantage of his unpreparedness to succeed!
Yes, that must be it!
Deng Qianlong’s face turned dark as he prepared to attack again. Ling Qiu lifted her leg and kicked him hard, sending him flying!
He flew straight for three to five meters before crashing against the wall with a thud!
“Ugh...”
Pain radiated sharply through his body!
Looking up again, Ling Qiu had already opened the elevator door and stepped inside without another word!
“Bastard!! How dare you lay a hand on me!!”
Deng Qianlong shouted, struggling to get up to give chase!
“Stop!”
Deng Ruyan called sharply from behind.
Ding.
At that moment, the elevator door closed and quickly descended.
Deng Qianlong roared, “Sister!! Why are you helping him?!”
He turned and glared fiercely at Deng Ruyan.
However...
When he saw Deng Ruyan’s usual calm, almost placid eyes, now faintly tinged with displeasure, he immediately backed down.
“Uh... sis... don’t look at me like that... I’m the one who got beaten up here!”
It was clear Deng Qianlong truly feared his older sister; his fierce anger just moments ago instantly melted into obedience like a tame husky.
“I’m helping you.”
Deng Ruyan shook her head helplessly, somewhat frustrated at his stubbornness.
“Helping me???”
Deng Qianlong thought he misheard her. “Sis? If you hadn’t stopped me just now... I would have beaten that Ling Qiu to a pulp!!”
“Really?”
Deng Ruyan slowly approached and grabbed the dislocated spot on Deng Qianlong’s arm.
“Ah!”
Deng Qianlong cried out in pain. “Sis... don’t touch it... that useless guy dislocated it... it hurts.”
“You know it hurts?”
Deng Ruyan said, “Then tell me, who dislocated your arm?”
Deng Qianlong bared his teeth, “Who else! That useless Ling Qiu just now?! Sis, you saw it with your own eyes! You’re my sister! You wouldn’t pretend not to see it just to protect him, would you?!”
“Then tell me why you crashed into the wall just now?”
“Sis? You saw that? It was Ling Qiu... uh...”
Finally, Deng Qianlong suddenly paused, realization dawning on him.
Right!
The one who dislocated his arm was Ling Qiu.
The one who kicked him flying was also Ling Qiu.
And the one he kept insisting he would beat to a pulp... was Ling Qiu...
“Sis... are you trying to tell me... I’m no match for that useless guy?”
Deng Qianlong’s face flushed red. Thinking back, he was indeed easily handled by Ling Qiu just now!
But...
He refused to admit it.
“Sis! What you saw was just an illusion! He only took advantage of my surprise! If we fought seriously, there’s no way he could beat me! A useless guy abandoned by the Ling family, how could he compare to me?!”
Deng Ruyan shook her head. “Do you know the Taekwondo master Park Dosi who has been appearing recently in Jiangnan?”
“Park Dosi?”
Deng Qianlong was puzzled by why his sister mentioned this person but said, “I know him.”
“Well then, how do you think your strength compares to Park Dosi’s?”
“Park Dosi is no match for me!”
Deng Qianlong lifted his head confidently. “Although he is a highly skilled black belt in Taekwondo, I practice internal martial arts! I’m confident I could defeat him within thirty... no, twenty moves!”
Deng Ruyan pursed her lips and said softly, “But Ling Qiu defeated Park Dosi in just one move.”
“Ah? What???”
Deng Qianlong was stunned, then said, “Sis... you must be joking. How is that possible... Ling Qiu... just a useless guy abandoned by the Ling family, where would he have learned such powerful skills? Only an internal martial arts master could do that, right?”
As he spoke, Deng Qianlong looked at Deng Ruyan with growing realization...
He knew his sister wouldn’t lie about something like this...
And upon thinking it through carefully...
Ling Qiu’s casual moves just now...
He really was no match!
He just refused to admit it!
“Tch! This Ling Qiu... just lucky! No idea where he learned internal martial arts!”
Hearing this, Deng Ruyan sighed and shook her head.
Her brother was honest enough but lacked some intelligence, and was a complete martial arts fanatic—an outright reckless brute.
“You two, take the young master to the hospital to treat the dislocation.”
Deng Ruyan suddenly instructed two bodyguards.
Deng Qianlong was helped up but pushed them away. “No need! I can walk myself!”
Then he looked at Deng Ruyan again. “Sis! You haven’t told me... why did Ling Qiu come here? You two... weren’t talking about the engagement, were you?”
Deng Ruyan said, “What do you think?”
Deng Qianlong pressed, “Then... how did it go?”
Deng Ruyan pursed her lips, smiling somewhat self-deprecatingly, “It didn’t go through for now.”
Didn’t go through?
Hearing this, Deng Qianlong laughed heartily, “Haha! I knew it! Such a ridiculous engagement could never work! You definitely rejected him!”
“No.”
Deng Ruyan shook her head. “He rejected me.”
Hmm...
Huh????
What... what?!
Ling Qiu... rejected you?!!
Deng Qianlong was stunned on the spot!
