Angry Li Muchéng

"Boss, this guy's got some serious skills. We're no match for him."

After several exchanges, the previously aggressive thugs were instantly knocked down by Ye Feng, rolling on the ground in pain.

"Tch..."

The leader, tightly gripping his cleaver, gritted his teeth and shouted as he watched Ye Feng casually whistling while walking towards him.

"This guy's too tough, retreat!"

Upon receiving their boss's retreat order, the thugs who were lying on the ground scrambled away, crawling and rolling as if afraid they'd be eaten alive by Ye Feng if they were too slow.

"What a waste of time..."

Ye Feng, hands in his pockets, watched the retreating figures with a slight frown. Suddenly, as if sensing something, he tilted his body to one side and grabbed Li Mucheng's wrist as she tried to stab him from behind with a dagger.

"Ouch..."

With a painful cry, Li Mucheng's dagger fell to the ground as Ye Feng gently twisted her wrist backward.

"Miss Li, young ladies shouldn't play with knives and weapons. It's quite impolite."

Li Mucheng stepped back fearfully, maintaining a safe distance from Ye Feng: "And you, sir kidnapper, think abducting me in broad daylight is polite?"

"I'm sorry we couldn't reach an agreement."

Ye Feng shrugged helplessly and stepped toward Li Mucheng.

"Don't... don't come near me!"

As Li Mucheng bent down to pick up her fallen dagger, Ye Feng was already one step ahead of her.

"I'm just taking back what belongs to me, Miss Li. Please maintain your dignity."

Ye Feng picked up the dagger and waved it at Li Mucheng, as if suggesting the dagger was more important than her.

"You!"

"By the way, Miss Li, next time you call for backup, try hiding your watch in your pocket. The red light it emitted was blinding."

"......"

After saying this, Ye Feng noticed Li Mucheng's face freeze, as if she'd fallen into an ice pit. He approached her with mock anger.

"Don't try anything! My father's men and the police are on their way. The consequences will be severe!"

"Oh, but that won't stop me from teaching you a lesson."

With that, Ye Feng tensed his body, gathering strength, and under Li Mucheng's terrified expression, aimed at her head and...

"Pop!"

A forehead flick...

"Ow!"

Li Mucheng cried out in pain, crouching down with both hands covering her forehead, tears in her eyes. When she looked up again, Ye Feng had vanished, leaving behind only a fox half-mask.

......

"Click"

With the sound of a key turning, Ye Feng pushed open his apartment door.

"Creak..."

Perhaps due to the old fixtures, the door made a harsh sound before it was fully open.

A musty smell of cheap furniture wafted in, and Ye Feng could only endure the strong discomfort as he turned on the living room light.

"Buzz buzz"

A distinct electrical current sound passed through, and a weak light came on from the ceiling, revealing the room's overall layout through its glow.

The room wasn't large, only about a dozen square meters, but it had all the basic facilities. Apart from being too small, everything was normal.

"Sigh..."

Ye Feng went to the bathroom and washed his face. When he looked up at the cracked mirror, the young man's appearance was finally revealed.

The youth had neat, short tousled hair, with bangs that partially obscured his mysteriously deep eyes. Those eyes were like massive black holes, involuntarily captivating anyone who looked into them, like priceless treasures.

Water droplets slid down Ye Feng's hair strands, finally falling from his chin. Under the dim light, the young man's handsome features were perfectly outlined, surprising even Ye Feng himself.

No wonder my charm is maxed out, even I feel something drawing me in when I look at myself. But why are there so many question marks after the skill description? Are there additional conditions?

After pondering for a long while without reaching any conclusions, Ye Feng finally sat on the sofa and pulled up his system panel to think carefully.

Currently, besides an illustrated guide of unknown use, he had two unavoidable tasks: getting close to today's kidnapping target, the wealthy young lady Li Mucheng, and kidnapping Su Yuxin.

So the question was, who was this Su Yuxin?

"Damn it!"

Ye Feng took out his worn-out smartphone, reluctantly turned on mobile data, and opened the browser to search for information about Su Yuxin. The system wouldn't even tell him the exact target, only providing hints when approaching the mission objective.

Perhaps fate was playing tricks on him - the search revealed dozens of people named Su Yuxin. With such a vague scope and only fifteen days, there simply wasn't enough time.

"Forget it!"

Ye Feng quickly turned off his phone and stumbled toward his room.

Exhausted, he decided to sleep on it.

[15]

.......

"Vroom vroom"

The continuous roar of car engines broke the factory's silence, with black-suited men and police officers surrounding the area in layers, making it impossible for even water to seep through.

"Young Miss, we're so relieved you're safe. You had us terrified."

A tall man spoke to Li Mucheng, who was sitting in the car.

"I'm fine, Ah Fu. Have you found the perpetrator?"

Hearing Li Mucheng's cold voice, Ah Fu sensed trouble. He knew that the calmer his young miss appeared, the more dangerous she actually was.

"The police haven't found the perpetrator yet, but please rest assured, Young Miss. We won't let him escape this city!"

"Mm, tell the driver to start driving. I'm tired."

"Yes, Young Miss. Please have a safe journey."

A black sedan slowly drove out of the narrow passage. Li Mucheng took a deep breath and shifted her gaze to the fox mask beside her seat.

"Just you wait, I won't let you get away with this."

After speaking, Li Mucheng raised her hand to rub her reddened forehead.

It hurts so much......

"Beep beep beep beep"

"Beep beep beep beep"

A piercing alarm sound rang out, and Ye Feng reached out to turn off the bedside clock before sitting up.

"This should be about the right time."

Recalling Li Mucheng's expression from last night, looking as if she wanted to tear him to pieces, Ye Feng let out a deep sigh.

"Sorry, Miss Li, but we might meet again. It's really... an inexplicable fate."
