Chapter 248: My Heart Ached for Him
Translator: Nyoi-Bo Studio Editor: Nyoi-Bo Studio
Mu Anan left Mingcheng Apartments and walked straight across the street. After crossing two streets, she finally felt the pressure in her chest slowly easing.
When Mu Anan reached the park, she sat on a wooden chair and panted slowly.
She thought of the Seventh Master’s headache.
The tragedy eight years ago made Mingcheng Apartments a place Mu Anan could not enter.
Even if she wanted to, the pressure was too much for her.
What about ten years ago?
What exactly happened in Liuli City ten years ago that caused Seventh Master to develop post-traumatic stress disorder?
Seventh Master’s heart was many times tougher than hers, so that incident must have been very tragic.
Mu Anan’s heart began to ache when she thought about how Seventh Master’s headache had acted up.
Her heart ached for Seventh Master.
She suddenly wished to be at Zong Zhengyu’s side.
Mu Anan looked at her phone and saw it was already 9:30 p.m.
She didn’t need to go to work the next day morning as she was on the midnight shift.
If she arranged for a plane to head to Liuli City right then and return the following night, it might be a rush.
But for Mu Anan, when she wished to see someone, she had to go.
At that thought, Mu Anan prepared to call Yuyuan Estate to have someone pick her up.
“Don’t run, stop right there!”
“Cripple him today!”
“Motherf.u.c.ker!”
Before Mu Anan could make the call, she heard fierce shouting and the sound of motorcycles in the distance. It was very loud.
Mu Anan turned to look at the source of the sound and saw a group of people rushing towards her direction. There were a few motorcycles following behind.
They were all chasing after a person in front of them.
The man had messy blonde hair. Although he was wearing a black T-shirt and pants, there was a lot of dust and footprints on it. He looked very sorry.
Just as the group of people was about to catch up, the person picked up the trash can and threw it behind him.
Many people were knocked down.
However, the other party had the advantage in numbers. Even if he knocked down a few, countless people were still chasing him.
“Huo Xian?”
Mu Anan was shocked as she watched that group of people chase after Huo Xian.
At the same time, when a few motorcycles behind the crowd rode past Mu Anan, two or three of the motorcyclists turned around to look at her.
Mu Anan had a good memory, and she recognized one of the motorcyclists.
Mu Anan first met Huo Xian at the bus terminal near the mental hospital. Huo Xian was being chased on a motorcycle. For Chen Hua’s sake, Mu Anan had fought with the Qingyou Sect to save Huo Xian.
However, Mu Anan had been disguising herself at that time. Now that she was no longer disguising herself and was only wearing black-rimmed gla.s.ses, those people could not recognize her immediately.
But Mu Anan had to save Huo Xian.
The other party was clearly prepared to cripple Huo Xian that day.
Mu Anan stood rooted to the ground, frowning as she tried to think of a solution.
The other party had at least 20 people, including those on motorcycles. Mu Anan silently made her move. Just her and Huo Xian were not enough to fight against those people.
There wasn’t enough time to inform Yuyuan Estate or report it.
Mu Anan saw that Huo Xian had been caught up and was fighting with a few people.
Her brain spun quickly, and she thought of the most straightforward way.
Mu Anan immediately took off her gla.s.ses and threw them into the trash can. She tied her long hair into a ponytail and hurried toward Huo Xian.
Huo Xian had taken a few hits, but he had strong combat ability. It wouldn’t be easy for those people to pin Huo Xian down.
Mu Anan quickly caught up.
A few motorcycles had already formed a circle around them. They were not in a hurry to make a move. Instead, they looked at Huo Xian, who was surrounded in the middle like a trapped beast, as if they were watching a show.
Standing in the crowd, Huo Xian wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth.
His footsteps were a little shaky, and his usually handsome mixed-blood face was already covered in bruises!
Huo Xian was confronting those people when he suddenly glanced at Mu Anan, who was quietly approaching them.
Mu Anan and Huo Xian looked at each other. Then, they looked at the people on the motorcycles.
Huo Xian had already received Mu Anan’s hint.
He lowered his head and chuckled, “Eighth w.a.n.g, do you think you can finish me off today?”
Mu Anan’s eyes instantly became alert when Huo Xian spoke. She scanned the people on the motorcycles and finally locked her eyes on the person who spoke.
The person who spoke was on the black motorcycle furthest away from Mu Anan.
The man sitting on the motorcycle was muscular and had a scar on his face. He looked like a gangster and was very fierce.
Eighth w.a.n.g stared at Huo Xian and said ferociously, “Second Young Master Huo, I’ve warned you before. Go back and be the young master of your wealthy family. Don’t touch my woman! If you touch my woman, 1 don’t care if you’re some rich young master. I’ll cripple you!”
Mu Anan walked along the outermost perimeter.
Those people were all focused on Huo Xian, so no one noticed Mu Anan.
Mu Anan, on the other hand, had been quietly moving toward Eighth w.a.n.g.
Huo Xian, who was surrounded, silently glanced at Mu Anan, who was approaching Eighth w.a.n.g.
He smiled at Eighth w.a.n.g, “It is mutual. Eighth w.a.n.g, you can s.n.a.t.c.h girls, yet don’t allow me to steal your girl?”
Huo Xian’s tone was especially arrogant, and Eighth w.a.n.g, who had already disliked him, had a gloomier expression.
He was furious, “Today, not only do I want his hand, 1 want him to die without any descendants!”
As soon as those imposing words fell, the surrounding underlings immediately attacked Huo Xian.
When Huo Xian was dealing with those people, Mu Anan had already approached Eighth w.a.n.g and picked up the iron rod from the back seat of his motorcycle.
Eighth w.a.n.g, who was staring at Huo Xian, noticed the situation behind him and turned around abruptly!
At the same time, Mu Anan had already stepped on the pedal of the motorcycle and jumped on the back seat of Eighth w.a.n.g’s motorcycle. At the same time, she strangled Eighth w.a.n.g’s throat with the iron rod from behind.
Mu Anan sat on her seat and clasped both sides of the iron rod with both hands. She tightened the strangle on Eighth w.a.n.g’s neck with a little force to make him lose his mobility.
That action was so fast and ruthless that even the experienced gangster Eighth w.a.n.g did not expect it.
Mu Anan lowered her voice, “Tell them to stop. Otherwise, I’ll cripple you first!”
Just now, Mu Anan and Huo Xian had exchanged a glance and looked at the motorcycles so that Huo Xian could remind her who was the boss of that group of people.
To catch a thief, first catch the king.
She and Huo Xian alone couldn’t handle that group of people.
However, if they could deal with the boss of that group, things would be easier.
“Hurry up!” Mu Anan lowered her voice and slammed the iron rod against Eighth w.a.n.g’s Adam’s apple.
Eighth w.a.n.g’s face immediately turned red from the pain!
Seeing that Mu Anan was getting more ruthless, Eighth w.a.n.g immediately shouted, “Stop! Stop!”
That shout wasn’t powerful enough, and those people couldn’t hear it.
Huo Xian was injured and was unable to hold on any longer.
Seeing that the iron rod was about to hit Huo Xian’s head, Mu Anan immediately increased her hand’s strength.
Eighth w.a.n.g’s life was threatened, so he immediately shouted, “Stop!”
However, that shout was still too slow. The iron rod had already smashed onto the back of Huo Xian’s head…!
