At this moment, the two slouching figures in the shadows of the alley finally sauntered out.
One tall and one short, one fat and one thin. It was still those two.
...Here they come!
And Liguang, who had been docile just a moment ago, suddenly tensed her delicate body upon seeing the knife and metal pipe!
Her heterochromatic eyes narrowed slightly. A cold light rippled in her amber left eye, while the data stream in her crimson right eye surged with a dark red glow!
She suddenly took a half-step forward, seamlessly shielding half of Fang Qi behind her. Her entire being was like a feline entering a combat state, ready to strike!
Even... her fingertips were already faintly flickering with red light!
Seeing that red light, Fang Qi's pupils instantly shrank!
...This crazy woman!
He had just reminded her, and she had even sworn to him!
Yet she was about to lose her mind right from the start!
"Liguang!" he quickly lowered his voice to scold her. "Think about what you just said! Do you really not want the little stars anymore?"
The silver-haired girl's delicate body immediately trembled slightly.
The step she was about to take came to a screeching halt, and the hostility in her mismatched eyes instantly froze!
"Whimper..."
She let out a whimper filled with unwillingness and grievance...
Then she quickly pulled back her extended foot.
She even shrank back behind Fang Qi, her slender fingers clutching the fabric of his clothes at his back, and her silver-haired head bowed down.
The fierce little leopard from a moment ago, whose demeanor screamed "whoever dares to touch Master, I will tear them apart," switched into a fragile, delicate little flower in the blink of an eye.
The speed of her face-changing made even Fang Qi blink in surprise.
Then he breathed a slight sigh of relief.
Well, it seems she can still be controlled!
Meanwhile, the two robbers had completely stepped out of the shadows, getting a clear view of the situation in the alley.
The tall robber first let his eyes roam over Liguang's figure and face a few times before his gaze landed on Fang Qi. He grinned, revealing a mouthful of yellow teeth:
"Yo, bright and early in the morning, and you two are putting on an idol drama here?"
"Hugging and cuddling, what a pair of filthy dogs!"
As his voice fell, the short, fat guy next to him also burst into laughter, his lecherous gaze circling Liguang!
Fang Qi frowned, a slight sense of urgency rising in his heart.
These two pieces of trash sure have filthy mouths!
If you really anger the crazy woman behind me, you won't even know how you died!
Then he felt...
The little hand clutching his clothes from behind loosened its grip slightly.
Immediately after, a warm and soft body pressed up against him.
He paused slightly and turned his head to look...
Only to see that on the silver-haired girl's stunningly beautiful face, not only was there no anger from being insulted, but instead...
Two faint, suspicious blushes had appeared?
"Mmm..."
She even slightly pursed her red lips, the corners of her mouth curling into a small, sweet smile.
Fang Qi: "?"
What did this mean?
Not only was she not angry, but she was actually happy?
...Oh.
This crazy woman couldn't have been made happy by the insults from these two, could she?
In this crazy woman's logic... a pair of filthy dogs = Master and her are a couple!
Fang Qi: "..."
He was speechless.
...Whatever works.
A lucky mistake, the result isn't bad!
As for the two robbers, seeing that the silver-haired girl was not only unafraid but even blushing and smiling...
Their wicked desires flared up even more!
"This chick is really something..."
The short fat man rubbed his hands together, narrowing his eyes as he leaned forward: "Wanna play with your big brothers? We guarantee we're better than this pretty boy..."
Before he could finish his sentence, a dirty hand reached out to touch Liguang's fair face!
"Get lost!"
Fang Qi reacted extremely fast, slapping away that groping hand and firmly shielding Liguang behind him.
But he suddenly felt that this action of his wasn't protecting Liguang...
It was protecting these two idiots in front of him!
Liguang's little hand grabbed the hem of his shirt again, her silver head slightly lowered, truly looking like she had been frightened.
She obediently cowered, not even glancing at the two robbers.
Completely implementing the policy of "hide when Master tells you to hide"!
Fang Qi backed away while protecting Liguang, speaking up: "Take the money, the wallets, just let us go!"
He was trying to stall for time.
Then he glanced at the entrance of the alley.
Beautiful police officer lady, hurry up and come!
If she didn't come soon, he was really afraid he wouldn't be able to hold back this crazy woman!
However, the two robbers exchanged a glance, their lecherous grins widening.
"Of course we want the money. But this chick... we want her too!"
The tall robber waved the fruit knife in his hand, approaching step by step: "Be smart, kid, otherwise..."
Fang Qi protected Liguang as they slowly retreated to the corner of the alley, his back pressing against the cold, rough brick wall. There was nowhere left to retreat.
In front of him was the tip of the knife from the grinning tall robber, its cold gleam almost poking his chest.
The short fat man also flanked them from the side, blocking all escape routes.
"Kid, I'll ask one last time. Are you gonna hand over the chick or not?" The tall guy spat, twisting his wrist slightly as the blade glinted threateningly.
Fang Qi could feel Liguang's body behind him tense up like a fully drawn bow!
Her fingers clutching his clothes tightened, and a faint trembling transmitted through the fabric from her fingertips.
That wasn't fear, but a desperately suppressed, boiling violent impulse!
He didn't need to turn around to imagine the look in her eyes right now!
The data stream in her crimson eye was probably already so frantic it was about to burst out, locking onto these two pieces of trash who dared to point a knife at her Master!
"The money... I'll give you all the money!"
Fang Qi continued to act, his voice trembling, his hand reaching into his pocket for his wallet, while his eyes anxiously glanced toward the alley entrance—
Gu Xi! Beautiful police officer! Hurry up already!
"Too late!"
The tall guy had clearly lost his patience. A fierce light flashed in his eyes, and his knife-wielding hand made a motion to thrust forward!
He probably didn't really intend to kill, but just wanted to use the blade to scare Fang Qi and force him into complete submission.
But this action stirred up a hornet's nest!
The moment the blade moved forward...
"Whir—!"
An extremely suppressed low growl, squeezed from the depths of her throat, sounded from behind Fang Qi!
Followed by the sound of wind breaking!
"Whoosh—!"
The pale beige skirt billowed up as if caught in a gale!
A slender leg shot out from his side at a speed beyond the limits of human visual perception!
The target was incredibly precise—the tall, thin man's knife-wielding wrist!
"Crack!!!!"
A scalp-numbing sound of bone fracturing exploded in the narrow alley, a step faster than the tall man's scream!
The terrifying sound of wrist bones being shattered instantly!
"Ahhhhhh—!!! My hand! My wrist!!!"
The tall man's pig-slaughtering howl abruptly spiked!
As if his bones had been pulled out, he collapsed to the ground, clutching his deformed wrist!
Fang Qi: "..."
Sigh, what was bound to happen happened anyway, huh.
This wrist of yours... it just begs to be broken, doesn't it!
The short fat man was completely petrified! His mouth was open wide enough to fit an egg, and his eyes were bulging out of his head!
Looking at his companion's tragic state, he then looked at the source of that kick—
The silver-haired girl had already retracted her leg and stood firmly by Fang Qi's side again.
She wore a perfect smile on her pretty face, glancing indifferently at the tall man howling and rolling on the ground, as if...
She had merely swept her eyes over a pile of insignificant trash.
Fang Qi watched this scene... and rubbed his temples.
Phew, not too bad!
Liguang didn't take any further action, she didn't continue her rampage...
Then it shouldn't be a big problem!
Plus, those two opposite him were obviously terrified and didn't dare to make another move!
Looks like things are pretty stable!
Next, he just had to wait for that beautiful police officer to arrive!
As he was thinking, the silver-haired girl in front of him suddenly stiffened.
She glanced at the tall guy writhing and howling on the ground while clutching his broken wrist, and her smiling expression suddenly froze!
Then... she first stole a quick, secretive peek at Fang Qi.
Seeing Fang Qi rubbing his temples in deep thought and ignoring her...
Those heterochromatic eyes instantly filled with panic!
Whimper...
A faint whimper squeezed out of her throat!
The next second—
Thud!
Her pale beige skirt spread out over the rough concrete floor!
She actually dropped straight to her knees right in front of the two groaning robbers, her slender arms tightly hugging one of Fang Qi's legs!
Master! I'm sorry, Master!!
Liguang looked up with her no-longer-calm little face, her voice laced with a crying tone:
Liguang was wrong! Liguang was really wrong!!
Liguang couldn't control herself... Liguang didn't mean to! He... he pointed a knife at Master! Liguang... Liguang couldn't hold back!
She incoherently admitted her mistakes while forcefully rubbing her cheek against Fang Qi's pant leg:
Master, please don't confiscate Liguang's little stars... and please don't cancel the kisses...
Wu... Liguang will definitely be obedient next time!
I'm begging you, Master... Master can punish Liguang however you want... You can beat Liguang or scold Liguang... just don't... don't take away the rewards...
The more she spoke, the more heartbroken she became!
Her silver braids had come undone from her movements, a few strands of hair clinging to her tear-stained cheeks, and the hem of her beige dress was covered in dust.
Coupled with her absolutely stunning face, weeping like a blossom in the rain, evoking deep pity...
She looked exactly like a little maid who had been abused by a cruel master, kneeling and begging for mercy!
Fang Qi: ...?
He froze completely on the spot, his mouth slightly open, his mind drawing a total blank.
Wait...?
What... what is this situation?!
I just spaced out for a moment, thinking about how to explain things to the police lady later...
Why did you suddenly drop to your knees?!
And cry so miserably?!
...What kind of play is this?!
Also... is kneeling really a yandere's standard apology posture?!
He looked at the silver-haired girl before him, hugging his leg and begging without any regard for her image...
Then he looked toward the other end of the alley—
The tall, skinny guy was still rolling on the ground howling, clutching his deformed wrist!
And the short, chubby guy was scared silly; he was trying to help his companion up while shooting terrified glances this way...
Obviously, Liguang's lightning-fast kick just now had a much greater impact than her gently snapping a wrist in the previous loop. This chubby guy had clearly chickened out.
He looked down again at the silver-haired girl who had caused all of this...
Master, I really know I was wrong... I'm begging you...
Liguang continued to hug his leg, looking up at him pitifully, begging him not to confiscate her little stars and rewards.
Fang Qi's brain was a bit overloaded.
No, wait...
Isn't this scene a little too bizarre?!
And right at this moment...
Screech—!!!
The ear-piercing sound of tires skidding, accompanied by sirens approaching from a distance, suddenly erupted from the entrance of the alley!
A police car slammed on its brakes at the alley entrance in a near-drift!
The car door was pushed open with a loud bang!
A long leg wrapped in dark blue, slim-fitting police trousers stepped out first!
Immediately after, that tall, upright figure with a neat ponytail charged into the alley in a few quick strides, carrying an awe-inspiring aura!
Police! Nobody move!
The clear and sharp female voice instantly overpowered all the other noises in the alley!
It was Gu Xi!
With one hand resting on the holster at her waist, her gaze, sharp as a knife, quickly swept over the situation in the alley—
The howling knife-wielding robber on the ground.
The terrified chubby accomplice next to him.
And at the very end of the alley...
That absolutely stunning girl with messy silver hair and a dust-stained dress, who was hugging a man's thigh and crying her eyes out.
The scene... was incredibly bizarre!
Gu Xi's hand gripping the gun lowered slightly, her eyes slowly widened, and a look of obvious astonishment and bewilderment appeared on her face.
Her gaze darted back and forth between Fang Qi and Liguang a few times before finally settling on Fang Qi's face.
Her voice remained cold, but it carried a hint of confusion:
You guys... what is going on here?
Fang Qi: ...
He glanced at the terrified mugger duo on the side.
Then he looked down at Liguang, who was still clinging tightly to his leg, looking at him pitifully, completely ignoring Gu Xi's arrival.
Finally, he looked up at the beautiful police officer in front of him, whose face clearly said, I've been on the force for years and have never seen a scene like this.
...How on earth was he supposed to explain this?

young master of the Shen family—a figure of immense power and wealth beyond measure—and awakened the "Destined Ultimate Villain System"! His starting scenario? Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family." Minutes later, with its capital chain severed, the Su Group teetered on the brink of bankruptcy! The once aloof and proud ice queen CEO was thrown into utter panic. That very night, she went to Shen Fei's villa, casting aside all dignity to beg and plead desperately... From then on, in this world teeming with Sons of Destiny, Shen Fei embarked on a path of extreme dimensional suppression! A mountain-descending divine doctor? Peerless medical skills? Shen Fei: "Reporting you for practicing medicine without a license! I'll gladly take your ancient medicinal cauldron and twin sister assassins." The Crooked-Smiling Dragon King? Commanding a hundred thousand soldiers with a single order? Shen Fei: "Illegal assembly and suspected treason! Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."

ap a wealthy young lady? Or else I'll be eliminated by the system? Ye Feng, who awakened the Kidnapper System, originally wanted to live a peaceful life but never imagined he would become a kidnapper of young women. However, after some time, he discovered that all the girls the system ordered him to kidnap were far from ordinary. "Big brother Ye Feng~ You've kidnapped my heart, and now you're not allowed to leave me ever again~" "Ye Feng~ You kidnapped me back then, now it's my turn to capture you♡" "Little Feng, you're mine! You can only be mine!" "Ye Feng, none of them deserve you. Only I love you the most♡" ... This is madness, they've all gone mad! Wait, what? Why are all the girls I kidnapped yanderes?!

and couldn't return to the real world. Finally, I gave up and decided to go with the flow, only to discover that writing a diary could make me stronger. Since no one could read it, Su Luo wrote freely, daring to pen anything and everything. Female Lead #1: "Not bad. This diary helped me steal all the protagonist's opportunities. I just want to get stronger." Female Lead #2: "I don’t care about reaching the peak of the cultivation world. Right now, I just want to enjoy the chaos." Female Lead #3: "What? Everyone around me is a spy? I’m the Joker Demon Lord?" ... It’s so strange. Why is the plot completely off track, yet the ending remains the same? Are you all just messing with me?!
