To Defeat Scum, You Must Start Early, My Lady - Chapter 555

Chapter 555: Chapter 554: Xiaolang Sends the Little Tiger Back to Yin Family (Third Update)

Wei Ziming dropped Song Zhizhi off at the garage.

Actually, it was quite late now and it wasn’t the best time to see the baby tiger. This would also disturb the rest of the baby tiger and Xiaolang.

Song Zhizhi sat in the car and didn’t get out immediately.

Wei Ziming had no plans to leave either.

Both of them were deep in thought.

Suddenly, Song Zhizhi spoke, “Brother Ziming, Jun Minghan has inappropriate thoughts about me.”

Wei Ziming’s face visibly darkened.

Song Zhizhi said, “I can’t allow him to succeed, but I can’t refuse either.”

“So you’re thinking of…”

“I’m thinking of killing him when the opportunity arises!” declared Song Zhizhi steadfastly.

Wei Ziming looked at her.

Song Zhizhi said, “I hope you can lend me a hand.”

“Alright.” Wei Ziming nodded, and at that moment asked, “Should we inform Ji Baijian?”

“No.” Song Zhizhi shook her head, “Let him deal with Leng Wanqing. That woman is the main issue, everyone else is just a small fry.”

“You and Ji Baijian…”

“Even though it’s just an act, I’m very clear that we are drifting apart.” Song Zhizhi laughed, “Sometimes I wonder why I’ve become like this. What am I pursuing? The family I was so keen to protect, I realized, they all seem to deserve their fate. I really don’t understand what I’m existing for!”

“You just can’t let go,” Wei Ziming pointed out, “You know that your family ended in this state due to their excessive pursuits, but you still want to salvage it. You still want your family to live well. You still want to protect them, protect Song Zhidao.”

Song Zhizhi didn’t speak.

She was truly hit where it hurt.

She knew Song Zhidao had changed, that he had become as consumed by desire as her father, but she still hoped he would change his ways and live a good life.

This was most likely an obstacle she would never overcome in her life.

She didn’t want to think about it anymore.

What she could do right now, or rather, had no choice but to do, was to help Jun Mingyu thoroughly remove Leng Wanqing from the stage of history, let Jun Mingyu take his rightful place, then assist Ji Baijian in reclaiming the commercial management structure, thereby ensuring the safety of herself and her brother for their lifetime.

She opened the car door, “Brother Ziming, I will go back first.”

“Don’t think too much, your body isn’t as strong as before,” Wei Ziming reminded her.

In that moment, Song Zhizhi felt a pang in her heart.

Yes.

Her body wasn’t as it used to be.

And she almost forgot, she was pregnant.

She entered the elevator.

Wei Ziming just stood there watching Song Zhizhi’s disappearing figure.

In this life, all Song Zhizhi wanted was to ensure the safety of her family, and all he wanted was to ensure the safety of Song Zhizhi!

He picked up the phone and dialed.

The call was answered quickly, “Master.”

“Xiaolang.” Wei Ziming said, “There are some things Master needs your help with.”

“Master, please tell me.”

“Come down, I’m waiting for you in the garage.”

“Alright.”

Luo Xiaolang didn’t hesitate and immediately got out of bed to go downstairs.

Downstairs, Wei Ziming was sitting in the car, smoking with the window down.

In fact, Luo Xiaolang seldom saw her master smoking. She figured something unpleasant must have happened.

She got into the passenger seat of Wei Ziming’s car.

Wei Ziming extinguished his cigarette.

He said, “Song Zhizhi doesn’t want to involve you.”

Luo Xiaolang frowned.

“She said you have a child, you have your own responsibilities, she doesn’t want you to be in any danger because of her, but I don’t know who else can ensure Song Zhizhi’s safety besides you.”

“Mm.” Luo Xiaolang nodded.

She was not much of a talker, she just needed to know what she had to do.

“Many things have happened to Song Zhizhi recently. It’s complicated and I can’t explain clearly. I’ll just tell you this, you must not go anywhere, not to compete, not to leave Jin City for any reason, and ensure that you’re always ready to leave. To put it plainly, I also don’t know when I might need your support.”

“Alright.” Luo Xiaolang agreed without hesitation.

“I hope you can send the baby tiger to a safe place, so you’ll have no worries.”

“Alright.”

“This is a weapon.” Wei Ziming pulled out a black weapon from under the car seat.

Luo Xiaolang took it.

“Keep it safe and keep your phone accessible 24 hours a day,” Wei Ziming instructed.

“Mm.” Luo Xiaolang nodded.

“Xiaolang…” Wei Ziming seemed to want to say something but hesitated.

“Master, you don’t have to say anything. Song Zhizhi is my friend, if she’s in danger, I won’t stand by, and you don’t have to feel guilty. After leaving Wulin Temple, I was supposed to protect Song Zhizhi in the first place. But due to many events happening later and things happening to me, I didn’t fulfil my promise!” Luo Xiaolang said determinedly, “Don’t worry, I will absolutely protect Song Zhizhi, I won’t let her be any in danger.”

“Xiaolang, your master thanks you.”

Luo Xiaolang was not sure why his master was acting like this today, but he didn’t think much of it. He only knew that perhaps Song Zhizhi was really in big trouble, trouble that his master couldn’t resolve properly.

Wei Ziming said those words and then left.

Some words are just hard to express.

Originally, he didn’t want to involve Xiaolang. But other than Xiaolang, he couldn’t think of anyone else…

…

Luo Xiaolang arrived home.

All that occupied his mind was the overly worried image of his master.

He turned his gaze to the little tiger sleeping in the small bed.

Every time he saw it, he felt warmth in his heart. No matter what happened, a single smile from it could dispel any worries.

He watched the little tiger slowly fall asleep.

Early the next morning.

Luo Xiaolang started to pack the little tiger’s things.

Aunt Wu was surprised, “Didn’t you just bring the little tiger back to raise? Why are you sending it back to the Yin family?”

“Well, there are some things I might not be around for.” Luo Xiaolang didn’t explain much.

“Are your wounds healed?” Aunt Wu asked in concern.

“I’m fine. External injuries heal quickly.”

Aunt Wu did not say anything else.

Luo Xiaolang took Aunt Wu and the little tiger back to the Yin family.

Qin Keqin’s belly was already quite large now.

It had been more than half a month since the last accident, and the doctor said that Qin Keqin could go into labor at any time. Although nothing serious happened to her during this period, Yin Bin was restless at night. Every move Qin Keqin made, Yin Bin would jump anxiously, asking her if she was going into labor. It was driving her to the brink of a nervous breakdown.

Luckily, the little tiger was back, which could distract their attention.

Qin Keqin was very excited.

Seeing Qin Keqin’s excitement, Yin Bin’s heart rate accelerated, fearing that she could go into labor any moment unattended.

“You’re saying you want to leave the little tiger here for a while?” Qin Keqin asked, both amusing the little tiger and sounding a bit surprised.

She thought that Xiaolang would never let the little tiger return to her care, recalling the past incidents still made her heart palpitate.

“Yes, there are some things, and it’s not convenient to have the little tiger with me.”

“Are you going out for a competition again?”

“No.”

Seeing that Luo Xiaolang was unwilling to say more, Qin Keqin didn’t ask further.

But the little tiger has been particularly clingy in the past few days, and Luo Xiaolang stayed in the Yin family’s villa with the little tiger, at least to let it get familiar with the place.

At 5 p.m., Luo Xiaolang saw that the little tiger had fallen asleep and was about to leave.

“Stay for dinner before you go.” Qin Keqin was a bit reluctant.

“No need. Joe is waiting for me. I’ll go back and have dinner with him.” Luo Xiaolang did not hide it.

She and Joe had become very close during this period. Even the password for her house was known to Joe.

She left early this morning and forgot to tell Joe who said he bought a lot of groceries for dinner tonight.

In fact, she had an indescribable affection for Joe. When someone suddenly treats her unconditionally well, she just wants to treat him better in return.

Qin Keqin couldn’t help but sigh.

Someone else’s.

Luo Xiaolang was now someone else’s.

She said, “In that case, Auntie won’t keep you.”

Luo Xiaolang nodded.

She left.

Qin Keqin couldn’t resist saying, “Xiaolang, no matter who you’re with in the future, Auntie will always regard you as family.”

Luo Xiaolang felt a lump in her throat at that moment.

She said, “Yes, me too.”

Qin Keqin smiled at Luo Xiaolang.

Luo Xiaolang laughed as well and walked out of the villa.

She thought, regardless of her relationship with Yin Qin, to her, Qin Keqin is her “mother”. From the moment she changed the way she addressed her, her feelings have not changed.

She walked out to the driveway to get into her car.

A sedan pulled up at the entrance.

Luo Xiaolang frowned.

Yin Qin was also a bit surprised when he saw Luo Xiaolang.

He thought she would never step foot in his house again.
