Chapter 734: Chapter 734 Confrontation

Ye Chunxiao was led through a series of turns, ending up in a desolate dead-end alley.

There was more than one punk in this place.

A few of them were dressed in a flashy, low-class style, clearly seasoned street-dwellers.

The leader, Brother Li, smiled at Ye Chunxiao.

"Don’t be scared, we’re not what you would call good people."

Ye Chunxiao trembled, wishing she could press herself against the wall.

"What do you want? I don’t have any money on me."

Brother Li looked Ye Chunxiao up and down, "You look like a pauper; we didn’t bring you here for money."

Ye Chunxiao immediately misunderstood, "I—I’m not pretty, there’s a girl at our school named Yue Qingqing who is the campus belle, I can help you bring her out."

The punks exchanged glances, sneering involuntarily.

Given what she just said, it was no injustice for her to have been brought here.

Ye Chunxiao was still thinking of ways to escape, "She really is beautiful, a lot of boys at school have a crush on her, if I take you there you’ll see."

Brother Li grew impatient, "Cut the chatter, you’ll find out the reason soon enough."

He asked his subordinate, "Did you call Miss Zhou?"

"I did, she said she’ll be here in over ten minutes, and told us to definitely keep an eye on the person."

Brother Li stroked his chin, staring at Ye Chunxiao as a cat would a mouse.

"Don’t worry, if she manages to run away, I’ll twist my head off and let Miss Zhou kick it around as a ball."

Hearing the name "Miss Zhou," the panic in Ye Chunxiao’s heart did not subside but grew even more intense.

The punks were idly waiting.

Someone flicked a switchblade open and closed, while others chatted about how many they had slashed yesterday, and there were those who intentionally stared at Ye Chunxiao, laughing out loud when they saw her shiver.

In comparison, Brother Li was a lot more composed, merely sitting on a stone with his legs crossed, his gaze fixed on the alley entrance, waiting for someone.

About ten minutes later, the sound of brakes came from not too far away.

Ye Chunxiao watched, eyes wide open, as Zhou Xitong walked in from the mouth of the alley, swallowing hard.

She hadn’t expected it to really be her.

"Xitong," Ye Chunxiao said, puzzled, "why did you have someone bring me here, are we having some misunderstanding?"

Zhou Xitong gave a cold laugh and viciously slapped Ye Chunxiao across the face.

Her nails were long and sharp, and Ye Chunxiao felt as though her cheek had been grazed by a knife.

The sting followed.

Brother Li stood up and intervened.

"Miss Zhou, please, don’t get angry or violent."

Ye Chunxiao didn’t expect him to say that, and just as she glanced over in surprise,

a sudden force struck her face, nearly slamming her head into the wall, leaving her ears ringing.

Brother Li withdrew his hand, smiling amicably at Zhou Xitong.

"Let us handle the small stuff."

Zhou Xitong nodded in approval, looking at Ye Chunxiao whose half face was turning blue from the hit.

"Don’t put on an act for me. Someone saw you throw that thing into the bathroom; you think you can cover up something like that?"

Ye Chunxiao blurted out, "Impossible!"

That evening she clearly waited until everyone was asleep before she went to dispose of it, and the hallway hadn’t made a sound.

If someone had been there, she would have definitely noticed.

Zhou Xitong crossed her arms, laughing coldly.

"Of course it was you, you bitch. A biting dog doesn’t bark, and I underestimated you before."

The moment Ye Chunxiao spoke out, she knew she was finished, shivering against the wall and pleading,

"It wasn’t me, it really wasn’t me. I saw Lu Zhu did it, she has always been jealous of you; it must have been her."

Zhou Xitong said impatiently, "Still not telling the truth?"

Watching the scene, Brother Li gave Ye Chunxiao another slap, swelling both sides of her face.

"Lu Zhu loves money more than anything, would she really blow the whistle on me?"

Wouldn’t she just extort a hefty sum from me?

Zhou Xitong had once shared a dormitory with her and knew Lu Zhu’s character well, she would never believe Ye Chunxiao’s nonsense.
