Chapter 16 - Chapter 16: Oh, So This Is How You Want to Play?

Just as Tian Xiang was turning the car around, that person rushed down.

Seeing they were about to collide, Tian Xiang forcefully pushed under her feet, and with a "whoosh," she and the bike sped into the middle of the road.

Luckily, it was nighttime and there weren't many people on the road, otherwise...

Tian Xiang turned her head and scolded the man who had crashed into the cement utility pole, "What are you doing? Rushing to a feast or reincarnation?"

The man and the bike fell sprawling, but fortunately, he was uninjured and his mind was still clear.

"Comrade, sorry, I don't know what's wrong with my bike, the brakes suddenly failed on the downhill."

Not in the morning, not in the evening, it just had to fail when she was turning!

Seeing the man apologizing with nods and bows, a chill went down Tian Xiang's back, and cold sweat streamed down.

First the flowerpot accidentally fell, now the inexplicable brake failure, Tian Xiang felt something surrounding her, warning her.

How could the world be so coincidental? How unlucky must she be to encounter two accidents within ten minutes!

"I get it, I get it! So it's targeted at me here!!"

Tian Xiang laughed out loud, this was the power of the plot preventing her, not letting her unveil Lu Zazha's true face.

If so, does it mean that Lu Zazha is at Widow Jiang's place, perhaps engaging in some shady dealings?

Fine, very good!

I, Tian Xiang, insist on making this trip today.

So, whatever tricks you have, use them to your heart's content!!!

Tian Xiang screamed "Ah" and rode her bike uphill.

By the roadside, a middle-aged man with a big bump on his head saw Tian Xiang first talking to herself, then riding like crazy as if her bike had wheels of fire, and felt confused while touching his forehead.

"What's this girl doing? Rambling like that..."

Ahead, Tian Xiang dodged two fighting cats, pulled a frog off her shoulder, caught a falling branch with one hand, and finally safely reached the Red Fifth Street settlement after ten minutes.

"Hehe, is that all you've got?"

Tian Xiang looked up at the sky with disdain, then got off her bike, ready to push it to Widow Jiang's house. Not far from the corner, a little grayish creature sniffed around and began approaching Tian Xiang.

Seeing clearly that disgusting thing, Tian Xiang gasped.

Fine, fine.

So that's how you're playing!

Afraid of what might happen.

Tian Xiang isn't afraid of hardship or fatigue, not afraid of ghosts or monsters, but she's terrified of mice!!!

Suppressing the urge to scream from the creeping sensation, Tian Xiang, without looking back, pedaled forward frantically, focusing solely on escape.

She turned four corners, passed through three alleys, and finally stopped under a streetlight.

The damned rat shouldn't have followed her.

Holding her chest, Tian Xiang panted heavily. Just as she was about to leave after catching her breath, she realized she had no idea where she was and had gotten lost.

She shouldn't have gone far, right? How could she have gotten lost like this?

Or was it the plot's power playing tricks again to trap her!

Impossible!

Now that she's here, they can't trap her. At worst, she'd knock on a door to ask for directions.

Tian Xiang quickly devised a plan, look around first, if that doesn't work, find someone.

It's not even nine o'clock, not too late.

Tian Xiang retraced her steps, but the deeper she went, the darker the alley became, until only the high walls on either side and the pitch-black alley remained.

Did she pass through this alley on her way?

She couldn't remember.

The rat muddled her brain, she gave up thinking then.

The environment of the Red Fifth Street settlement is similar to Sanli Lane, all one-story courtyard houses, with winding alleys inside. Someone unfamiliar with the area could actually get lost.

Tian Xiang decided not to go forward anymore; she planned to turn back and find someone.

Just as she had this thought, she heard a voice from the alley ahead.

"Hey, girl, what are you up to?"

Girl?

Tian Xiang squinted and saw two men with cigarettes in their mouths approaching.

Their figures gradually became clear in the dim light, and Tian Xiang saw the labels on their foreheads.

Thug 2, Hooligan 3.

Thug, hooligan:

Refers to local ruffians, often describing those with low morals and bad behavior.

Tian Xiang was stunned.

Thugs and hooligans are different from street loafers.

Street loafers are merely idle and loafing about, occasionally bullying or teasing young girls.

However, thugs and hooligans are truly criminal.

Previously, in the auditorium, Tian Xiang dared to challenge street loafers, but facing these men, she knew her limits and would never provoke them alone.

Moreover, considering the numbers on their heads, there might be Hooligan 1 and Thug 4 here.

Tian Xiang pulled down her hat brim, "You've got the wrong person."

Then she got on her bike to leave, but as she turned, the other side of the alley was blocked by someone too.

The man with Hooligan 1 on his forehead said, "Girl, it's so dark, can you see the road with that hat on? Take it off."

The girl's voice was quite nice, gentle and crisp, he just wasn't sure how she looked.

Hooligan 1, with a cigarette in his mouth, moved closer to the center.

Tian Xiang got off her bike, her voice cold, "What? Looking to end up in the police station again?"

Hooligan 1: "What nonsense. We just want to make friends with the girl, if we hit it off, we can even start dating, I'll marry you!"

Tian Xiang chuckled, took a mirror out of her pocket, looked at her reflection, smiled lightly, then dropped the bike and bent down to pick up a brick.

The three hooligans were surprised that Tian Xiang dared to fight back and instinctively stopped in their tracks.

"Girl, what are you doing? Bro will take you to a movie! Why greet us with a brick?"

"It's one against three, can you manage that?"

The hooligans' eyes were filled with disdain.

Tian Xiang sneered, "Do you know why I'm so bold?"

Hooligan 1 laughed, "Stop pretending girl, this is an abandoned factory area, no one will hear you no matter how loud you shout."

Abandoned factory area!

Tian Xiang roughly knew where she was.

Tian Xiang smiled and said, "I know, by myself there's no way I could beat the three of you. But I'm the heroine of this story, and you're just stinking thugs who don't even count as side characters, how could you possibly harm me??"

With that, Tian Xiang charged at Hooligan 1 with the brick.

By now, she didn't care if she was truly unlucky to encounter these three, or if it was the plot at work.

Anyway, she's all in!!!

Today, not even a king can stop her from exposing Lu Feng as a scumbag.

Main male lead of a harem!

With women left and right?

It's the new society, who in the world writes such a novel!

The more Tian Xiang thought about it, the angrier she became, showing no mercy, she swung the brick at the man's face.

Usually, when these hooligans harassed young ladies, they either screamed in fright or ran away, it was the first time they encountered someone so fierce. They couldn't react in time and could only raise their hands to block.

Tian Xiang put all her strength into it, blocking was useless.

However, her strength was still a bit lacking; she aimed to break the head, but it ended with just a swollen lump and a big bump.
