Chapter 291 – The Rabbit Is Most Importan

t

The scarred man sent a face as hard as he could towards me.

He didn’t hold back and sent his fist straight towards my eyes. It was a sucker punch, a low-life tactic hoodlums commonly use.

But his intentions were too obvious.

Long before he threw his punch, he was already moving his waist and rounding his shoulders. It was as obvious as day and night.

Of course, ‘long before’ is only when compared to gramps. When I’m practising on the lakeside, gramps’ punches are insanely fast even when he’s only feeding me moves.

Furthermore, the scarred man didn’t even have a balanced center of gravity. He didn’t tie his shoes properly and he almost tripped and fell as he rushed towards me.

It was like looking at my stupid self the first time I rushed at gramps.

Yin Yang Sanshou.

I gently but quickly extended a palm and obstructed the scarred man’s wrist. ‘Hua Jin’ is not about power vs power, it’s more like a boat splitting the waves. So, his fist still kept moving forwards.

But the waves changed the direction of the boat towards an iceberg.

It was as if the scarred man was drunk. His fist simply brushed past me, but he couldn’t stop in time and crashed into the railings on the side of the bridge.

As a result of Dong Shan City’s tight finances, a lot of the railings on pedestrian bridges were constructed really low (It lead to people who has acrophobia like me to only be able to walk in the center of the bridge). When scarred man crashed into the railing, he almost flipped over onto the fast lane below. It scared him to the point where he had cold sweat all over his body and he slumped next to the railing unable to move.

Blondie cursed when he saw his companion thwarted. He tossed Gong CaiCai aside and came at me.

He sent a flying kick towards my ribs. He probably thought arms would always be weaker than legs, so if he uses his legs, I wouldn’t be able to use any tricks.

He never thought about how his actions would infuriate me even more.

Damn it, he’s not as tall as me, but he dares to have longer legs than me?

I slightly shifted my foot and moved forward. Before he recovered his balance, I flung my shoulder bag into his stomach.

The books weren’t the only heavy things. There was also the stainless steel lock I just purchased. My apologies.

Blondie’s eyes rolled back, then he fell down and began to retch on the spot.

In order to express my contempt for his long legs, my hands were in my pockets the entire time. It attracted the applause of the surrounding crowd and even Gong CaiCai was stunned.

The two young men quickly recovered and wanted to go a second round.

However, the police arrived right at this moment.

The two police officer looks like they had a bit higher positions. After they eyed Gong CaiCai, the one with glasses said:

“Everyone stop. Why are you picking on this girl when you should be at school.”

Then he pointed to me: “Let’s arrest their boss first.”

Fuck, who’s the boss! It’s fine if you don’t have excellent vision, but please go and get a new pair of glasses.

The middle-aged uncle who reported the crime came over to explain to the officers so they would understand the perpetrators were the other two and I only came to help.

The scarred man and blondie had a guilty conscience, so they turned and ran while the police ran after them.

The glasses cop said ‘sorry’ when he passed by me.

It’s good to learn from your mistakes. It’s not good to be like Constable Ma who always harbors a grudge against me because his first intuition on me was wrong.

“Sir, sir, your rabbits, please don’t forget them here.”

I almost tripped when I saw Gong CaiCai holding the rabbit cage while desperately beckoning at the two people running away.

How dumb do you have to be, why are you even referring to them as ‘sirs’. They must have stolen it in the first place and they won’t raise them properly even if they take them back.

A characteristic of Chinese people is they form crowds. Currently, the crowd dispersed from the bridge and was watching the police capture them.

Only the middle-aged uncle came over, patted my shoulders, and praised me:

“You’re a good young man, I also have a daughter about the same age… there are not many brave young men today. Do you learn martial arts?”

I half-heartedly answered his questions and also expressed my thanks to him for calling the police. He saw Gong CaiCai holding the rabbits with a bewildered expression and chuckled:

“I could tell she’s your classmate. She must be scared, you should go and comfort her.”

Then he said sternly: “By comfort, I only mean comfort. Don’t coerce her into an early relationship or else all fathers with daughters will view you as an enemy.”

I nodded and didn’t know if I should laugh or cry and the uncle walked away with satisfaction.

Gong CaiCai shyly pressed the rabbits’ cage against my back like she didn’t want to touch me.

“Ye, Ye Lin classmate, can you keep rabbits at home?”

So I guess you care about the rabbits’ well-being more than thanking me.

I smiled and said: “Sure, you can give me the rabbits. I didn’t have anything to eat tonight….”

If rabbits can understand humans, then they would probably have the same expression as Gong CaiCai.

“Can you not eat them, I’ll treat you to dinner. Please take them home if you can keep them.”

Gong CaiCai raised the cage above her head and begged me with sincerity.

Although I have experience taking care of animals, I don’t have the courage to raise pets after my dog died.

So I could only indirectly refuse: “I’ve been home alone recently and can’t feed them on time. They will starve if I keep them.”

Gong CaiCai embraced the cage again with disappointment.

“Then I’ll have to see if my aunt could raise them…”

She only remembered to thank me after she thought of a suitable keeper for the rabbits:

“Ye Lin classmate, thanks a lot for earlier… it’s all because I interfered with their business. I also caused them to be chased by the police… I’ll have to do a proper self-reflection.”

Are you expressing your thanks to me or those two hoodlums? There are obviously other reasons why they are running from the police. Only bad people run when they see the police.

Gong CaiCai pondered for a bit before she said:

“I’ve always been judging you by your appearance for a long time, which I should not have done. Today, I realized you were a good person, no wonder the class leader likes you…”

Does she now think the class leader likes me because she saw us kiss? I guess she won’t believe me even if I explain it was an accident.

In order to express her gratitude, Gong CaiCai treated me to McDonalds. I accepted since those two might come back for revenge.
