Capítulo 973: Chapter 1053: Take Action!

“Back again?” Qingci’s tone darkened.

“There’s a good chance he’s back. Why, did he come back without telling you?” Lin Mengyan asked knowingly.

She recalled the scene at the traffic light intersection, that guy riding a big frame bicycle; she definitely didn’t mistake him.

Definitely that guy!

Kong Qingci remained silent.

Lin Mengyan continued her banter, “No way, he didn’t even tell you this? Kong Qingci, you guys seemed so close, I thought you were very intimate, turns out it’s all just appearances.”

Kong Qingci lightly bit her silver teeth and finally said coldly, “None of your business!”

Lin Mengyan chuckled and said, “How could it not matter? After all, I had a fleeting romance with that guy too.” She wasn’t afraid of provoking Kong Qingci.

After all, among the younger generation of the four major families, they all competed with each other. For instance, there’s unresolved resentment between Lin Mengyan and Shen Binan that Fang Yi still doesn’t know about.

Actually, speaking of Shen Binan, Lin Mengyan, and Kong Qingci, they’re all the same age except for Kong Qingci; Shen Binan and Lin Mengyan attended the same university, and even shared a dorm room.

They’ve studied in private aristocratic schools since childhood, alongside other young people from the four families. That’s to say, the grudges among the younger generation of the four families started from early on.

So it’s entirely normal for Lin Mengyan and Kong Qingci to bicker.

It’s just that their chatter also attracted the curiosity of those around them, who leaned in to eavesdrop.

Not only do women have strong curiosity, but men’s curiosity is also just as intense.

However, the conversation between the two women was soft-spoken, so much so that outsiders couldn’t understand it, with repeated mentions of ‘that guy’ leaving them bewildered, giving up in the end.

Meanwhile.

Old Fu was still fixated on Fang Yi inside the toilet stall.

Old Fu couldn’t hide his murderous intent.

The next moment, Old Fu abruptly moved towards the toilet stall.

He’s going to strike!

“Isn’t that Zhu Wushou’s Old Fu? Rumor has it he’s quite skilled, especially his leg techniques, ruthless and vicious!” someone exclaimed.

“I’ve seen Old Fu too; he carries a deadly aura, probably responsible for quite a few deaths.”

“With Old Fu making a move, the guy inside doesn’t stand a chance.”

“Daring to challenge Zhu Wushou, the person inside must be tired of living, either acting like a reckless calf not fearing the tiger, or just completely ignorant of his surroundings.”

The crowd buzzed with discussions.

Some among them knew Old Fu’s prowess, and their discussions made everyone aware of Old Fu’s deadly skills.

“What do you think?” Qingci asked Lin Mengyan suddenly.

“Old Fu beside Zhu Wushou is Earth Level five stages, killed quite a few people in his early years, rumored to have over a dozen lives claimed by him,” Lin Mengyan said, looking rather grave: “In my opinion, the person inside is likely in deep trouble.”

Qingci said icily, “Old Fu can discipline someone, but causing a fatality here is unacceptable!”

Lin Mengyan expressed surprise, “Weren’t you supporting Zhu Wushou? Why stand firm now?”

“Principles!”

Kong Qingci coldly uttered these two words.

She had stood by Zhu Wushou earlier to save face for him.

But if a life were to be lost, Kong Qingci wouldn’t agree to it. If a major incident occurred, her Purple Vine Bay restaurant would inevitably be affected, so she wouldn’t overlook it.

“Now… let’s just hope the person inside has good luck,” Lin Mengyan said, clearly not optimistic about the outcome for the guy in the toilet stall.
