Chapter 408: Don’t Be Afraid, These People Dare Not Do Anything To Us
Xiang Wanwan heaved a sigh of relief. She had always felt that Tang Li was very capable and wanted to become someone as capable as her. She felt that if she said that she had someone she liked, she would seem like a weak girl.
Now that Tang Li changed the topic, she told her what exams and competitions were coming up.
Tang Li nodded and said, “Study hard. The world is your oyster. Don’t get distracted by something else.”
That was all she could say. She couldn’t possibly separate the male and female leads.
Xiang Wanwan nodded. “I know. My dream is to become a world-renowned teacher.”
“Well, not a bad dream.”
Xiang Wanwan couldn’t help but smile.
Every time Tang Li praised her, she felt powerfully motivated.
The path the two of them took was the backstreet. The road here was not wide, and there were back walls on both sides. It was quiet and only dimly lit up by street lamps. Occasionally, one or two rats would scurry past.
Tang Li asked Wanwan, “Aren’t you afraid of walking this path every day?”
“I’m not afraid. I’ve been used to walking at night since I was young.”
Tang Li nodded. At that moment, she suddenly stopped in her tracks.
Xiang Wanwan looked at her in confusion.
Tang Li said, “We’re being followed.”
Xiang Wanwan was shocked and quickly lowered her voice to say to Tang Li, “My brother’s men should be nearby. Let’s walk faster. They won’t dare to do anything to us after we walk out of this alley.”
Tang Li said, “Don’t be afraid. These people won’t dare to do anything to us.”
When Xiang Wanwan thought of Tang Li’s ability, she calmed down.
Just as she was about to nod, a few people walked out and stopped them.
The two of them were surrounded.
Tang Li glanced at the people in front of her and asked, “Who sent you to find us?”
One of them rubbed his nose bridge with his thumb and said fiercely, “That’s not for you to worry about. As long as you don’t resist and come with us, we won’t hurt you. Otherwise, I’ll have to do it the hard way.”
Tang Li snorted and said, “If you don’t want to tell me, then don’t.”
With that, a ball of flames suddenly appeared in his hand.
The flames emitted a faint blue glow, making the group of men’s hearts skip a beat.
“She, she, she… What’s that in her hand?”
“Blue flames, how did she do it!”
“It must be just a magic prop. Don’t be afraid, everyone. We just need to abduct Xiang Wanwan.”
“That’s right. Everyone, attack together. Take both of them away. Otherwise, she’ll call the police.”
“Right, we can’t let Mr. Fu know.”
“That’s right. Boss still needs to use Xiang Wanwan to threaten Mr. Fu.”
Hearing that, Tang Li and Xiang Wanwan knew what was going on.
Xiang Wanwan clenched her fists and said to Tang Li, “It’s someone who wants to use me against my brother.”
Tang Li nodded. The blue flame quickly split into several blue flames and flew towards the people.
Before these people could react, their bodies were wrapped in blue flames.
Burnt by the blue flame, the group of people were rolling on the ground, crying and screaming in pain.
Xiang Wanwan looked at Tang Li with wide-eyed amazement. Though the blue flame was on those people, it didn’t actually burn them.
Tang Li said, “It is not fire. It just produces a chemical reaction that can make them hallucinate.”
Xiang Wanwan widened her eyes in admiration.
Looking at the group of people who were still rolling around and screaming, Tang Li said to Xiang Wanwan, “You can call your brother and ask him to deal with them.”
Xiang Wanwan nodded and quickly took out her phone to call Fu Junye.
The two of them did not wait long before Fu Junye rushed over with a group of people.
When they arrived, Tang Li had already put out the flames.
Fu Junye ordered coldly, “Take them all away.”
After his men took the group of people away, Fu Junye looked at Tang Li and called out, “Miss Tang.”
Tang Li nodded at him and said, “These people are your enemies. They wanted to abduct Wanwan.”
Fu Junye nodded with a dark expression and said, “Not long ago, some people started a mutiny in the Mo Pavilion. I eliminated most of them, but a few escaped. Recently, I’ve sent people to look for them. They probably know about Wanwan and want to use her to threaten me.”
Xiang Wanwan frowned when she heard that.
“Is Brother in danger?”
“I am not. I didn’t expect them to put their hands on you.” At this point, he asked, “Where are the two bodyguards I sent to protect you?”
Xiang Wanwan shook her head. “I don’t know.”
The bodyguards were obviously dealt with by the people who came to abduct Wanwan.
Fu Junye frowned and said to Tang Li, “Miss Tang, thank you. If not for you, Wanwan would have been abducted.”
Tang Li nodded and said, “You can take some people to the northeastern suburbs to look for your enemy.”
Fu Junye nodded and immediately called someone to send a group of men to the northeastern suburbs.
The three of them continued walking out of the alley. Fu Junye told Tang Li about the Mo Pavilion. “The Mo Pavilion mainly takes on jobs that are similar to that of bodyguards. As long as it’s not against the laws, we will do anything. However, while I was injured, a member took on illegal business, which affected Mo Pavilion’s reputation greatly. I’ve been dealing with this matter recently, so I’ve been quite busy.”
Towards the end, he sounded like he was blaming himself.
Xiang Wanwan quickly said, “Brother, it’s not your fault. I won’t take this alley anymore. I’ll be fine if I take the main road.”
“I’ll send more bodyguards to protect you.”
Xiang Wanwan wanted to say no, but she was afraid that he would be worried, so she shut her mouth and didn’t say anything.
Tang Li glanced at the siblings but did not say anything.
The three of them quickly walked to the entrance of the alley.
As the three of them went back on the road, the passersby would subconsciously look at them.
After walking for a while, Fu Junye suddenly asked Tang Li, “Miss Tang, do you need manpower now? If you need help, just tell me. I have a lot of people. You can mobilize some at any time.”
Tang Li knew that he felt that she needed manpower since she had just started an entertainment company, so she said, “Not for the time being. I have enough people in my company now.”
Fu Junye nodded and said, “Everyone in the Mo Pavilion is at Miss Tang’s service. Miss Tang, don’t hesitate to ask us for help.”
Tang Li smiled when she heard that.
She said, “You guys are indeed siblings. You’re both the kind of people who don’t want to owe people a favor. But don’t worry, I really don’t need any help right now. If I do, I won’t hesitate.”
“Alright.”
