Chapter 5 Rogue Ah Rogue

  Li Kezhang indeed made his move, bringing a group of security guards to surround Zhao Tiezhu and Chen Lingshan. With an unfriendly expression, he glared at Zhao Tiezhu and said, "I'm telling you, comrade, how can you resort to violence? And you, a young girl, are also learning from others to use violence? Violence can't solve anything, now look what's happened, you've injured people. You two come with us."

  "What makes you think we'll follow you?" Chen Lingxuan said discontentedly.

  "What's the big idea? Let me tell you, I'm the head of security for this market. You're causing trouble in my market, that's disrupting the market order. You can choose to continue resisting, but just wait till the police arrive, and see if you can still resist." Li, the head of security, said disdainfully.

  As soon as someone mentions police, Chen Lingshan's face tightens up. In the River Crab era, the intimidating power of police is still quite great.

  "What are you still dazed about? Let's go." Li Kechang beckoned to the bailiffs beside him, and several tall security guards holding their batons were about to grab Zhao Tiezhu and Chen Lingshan. But Chen Lingshan, who was frightened by the police, didn't think of dodging for a moment.

  Zhao Tiezhu furrowed his brow, grabbed Chen Lingshan's hand and shouted: "What are you still stunned for? Run!" As he spoke, he turned around and ran out.

  Chen Lingshan was pulled by Zhao Tiezhu, and suddenly felt a surge of great strength in her hand. She found herself being lifted up and running with the man as if she were weightless.

  The security guards around them apparently expected the two to run and immediately swung their clubs at them. Li Kechang shouted, "You've hit someone and still want to run! This is a society ruled by law, everyone catch him!" However, none of the onlookers responded, they just coldly watched Li Kechang's frantic barking.

  A security guard rushed over too quickly, possibly eager to make a name for himself or something, anyway I couldn't tell why he was faster than others, he just was. Just as the security guard was excitedly thinking that he had finally made a name for himself and that his running skills learned in school were useful, Zhao Tiezhu didn't even glance at him and kicked out with lightning speed and accuracy, directly hitting the security guard's "little stick" (not the big stick in his hand, but rather between his legs). Anyway, the little stick was clearly not as durable as the big stick, and the security guard instantly curled up into a shrimp shape and flew out several meters. The poor security guard didn't even have time to appear with a name in this book before being killed off in an instant.

  The gap was opened, Zhao Tiezhu accelerated his pace, Chen Lingshan felt as if she had no weight at all, being pulled by Zhao Tiezhu's hand, her feet left the ground and floated behind him like a suspension, with the sound of wind rushing past her ears.

  Zhao Tiezhu was delighted, gently pinching Chen Lingshan's small hand in his own, a playful smile spreading across the corners of his mouth. This Li Kechang is really a good person, delivering opportunities to himself so eagerly. If he doesn't repay this great kindness, it would be a waste of Mo Ying's name.

  Zhao Tiezhu's eyes scanned and found that Li Kechang was just in front of him, not far away. He grabbed Chen Lingshan's hand and pulled her forward with a sudden force, wrapping his other arm around Chen Lingshan's thigh, using both hands to lift her up horizontally.

  "Ah!" Chen Lingshan was startled by this action and exclaimed, her hands unconsciously wrapping around Zhao Tiezhu's neck. A blush instantly spread across that lovely face, she had never been hugged like this by a boy in her life, how could he be so shameless and reckless. Her beautiful eyes slightly turned to the side, looking at Zhao Tiezhu's determined face, Chen Lingshan couldn't help but think: "I didn't expect him to look so... lecherous..."

  Zhao Tiezhu noticed Chen Lingshan's gaze, and his heart was filled with joy. He thought to himself that this little girl must have been captivated by his strong and handsome face. He hastily revealed a bright smile, but little did he know that it was precisely this smile that made Chen Lingshan think he looked particularly lewd...

  Before he knew it, Zhao Tiezhu was already in front of Director Li. Director Li didn't expect his subordinate to be so vulnerable and hastily pulled out the electric baton from his waist and swung it at Zhao Tiezhu.

  Zhao Tiezhu spun around on one foot, his right leg flying high in the air, and landed a beautiful whip kick squarely on Li Kechang's face. Along with the bright flash of light from his mouth came a spray of saliva and a yellow tooth, sending Li Kechang flying several meters away. He crashed to the ground, wailing like a pig about to be slaughtered.

  Zhao Tiezhu hugged Chen Lingshan and made a few quick dodges, then escaped the crowd. The security guards chasing from behind were clearly not fast enough, seeing Zhao Tiezhu about to get away, several smarter security guards threw their batons at him with force.

  Chen Lingshan saw several flying sticks, startled, and before she could remind him, several sticks hit Zhao Tiezhu's back. Zhao Tiezhu let out a few muffled hums, his face turned white in an instant, and he stumbled slightly before letting out a loud roar, as if using all his might, and quickly left the market.

  "Zhao Gege, they didn't catch up, put me down now." Chen Lingshan called out as she saw Zhao Tiezhu's face getting whiter and whiter.

  "No need, I can still hold on, they definitely won't let us go easily, let's run a bit further." Zhao Tiezhu gritted his teeth and said. In his heart, he was delighted, and unconsciously tightened his right hand, which was currently propping up Chen Lingshan's thigh. The rich elasticity of the touch made Zhao Tiezhu feel a wave of dizziness. Chen Lingshan obviously didn't expect that the person in front of her would still have a lecherous heart after being beaten, and only looked at Zhao Tiezhu's pale face with concern, thinking to herself: "Although this man is a bit of a rascal, a bit lewd, but he is also a real man."

  After a while in the dark place on the track, Zhao Tiezhu knew he couldn't keep pretending anymore, or else Chen Lingshan would become suspicious, which wouldn't be good. Although he was a rogue, he was also a rogue who was good at hiding and had morals and quality, that's what he thought of himself.

  Putting down Chen Lingshan, Zhao Tiezhu forced out a few rough breaths and said slowly: "Here... should be... safe."

  Chen Lingshan looked at the person in front of her, and couldn't help but feel a pang of guilt. It was all for his own protection that he... Chen Lingshan had completely forgotten that it was she who had first reached out to save him back then.

  "Are you alright? Let me take a look at your back. I've studied traditional Chinese medicine." Chen Lingshan said, walking behind Zhao Tiezhu and reaching out to lift up his clothes.

  "It's okay, it's okay." Zhao Tiezhu hastily turned around and said, if she saw him, he would be done for. Those few hits earlier, not to mention hurting himself, even scratching an itch would be too much force. "I'm fine, just a bit sore, why don't we find a place to rest for a while?" Zhao Tiezhu suggested at the right time.

  With a hint of guilt, Chen Lingshan hesitated for a moment before saying, "Alright, let's find a place to rest for a bit."

  Zhao Tiezhu was secretly delighted.

  Half an hour later

  "Uh... Zhao Ge, I just said let's find a place to rest for a bit, why did you bring me here?" Chen Lingxuan said with some discomfort.

  "Ah, let's take a break. I'm used to eating and resting at the same time. Anyway, it's almost lunchtime now, so let's just have something to eat." Zhao Tiezhu said with a smile, handing the menu to Chen Lingshan.

  "This..." Chen Lingxuan looked around at the steaming dishes on the tables with a hint of helplessness, not expecting Zhao Tiezhu to bring him to a restaurant. He thought to himself, oh well, might as well eat something first and then take care of business later.

  Chen Lingshan ordered a few dishes, and Zhao Tiezhu also ordered a specialty dish of the restaurant, Chicken Pot.

  "Ling Shan, are you a local?" Zhao Tiezhu asked.

  "No, I'm a Tianjin person, came here to study." Chen Lingshan replied.

  "Oh? Come read books? Come here to attend university?"

  "Yes, I was just admitted this year."

  "Which school?"

  "What's FJ University? What does Brother Zhao do?"

  "Me? I'm also a student, haha, I was admitted to FJ University this year too. What major are you?"

  "Is Zhao also a freshman at FJ University?" Chen Lingshan asked in surprise, "I'm from the Finance Department, what about you, Zhao?"

  "I'm also from the finance department! It seems we really have a predestined relationship, Ling Shan classmate." Zhao Tiezhu had an air of "we were meant to be". Chen Lingshan looked disbelieving and asked, "Then when are we reporting?"

  "This... I forgot, didn't go see..." Zhao Tiezhu said with some embarrassment.

  "Hmph, I knew you were cheating me, Brother Zhao." Chen Ling said with feigned anger. Just as Zhao Tiezhu was about to explain, the waiter brought over the dishes they had ordered.

  "This chicken stew is delicious! I come here every time to eat." Zhao Tiezhu picked up a chicken leg and said to Chen Lingshan: "When I was young, my family had two younger sisters, including me, there were three of us. Every time we ate chicken at home, my parents would buy an extra chicken leg and cook it together, then the three siblings would each have one. But no one told me that chickens only have two legs! I thought they had three legs and when they ran, they would tuck the other leg under their butt. It wasn't until I was in third grade of elementary school, the year I became class monitor, our whole class went on a field trip, passing through a village, we rested there, to show off, I went to catch chickens, the teacher asked me what I was doing. I said I'm looking for the chicken's third leg. The teacher choked for half a day and said 'you little rascal'."

  "Zhao, you rascal." Chen Lingshan's face flushed with anger and embarrassment as she recalled Zhao Tiezhu's mention of a "third leg".
