Urban Top Bodyguard

However, Wang Yu soon realized he was wrong again. This group didn't immediately start the fight, instead, they huddled around the man with the gold chain and exchanged a few words before heading toward the cemetery with an air of murderous intent.

Watching their retreating figures, Wang Yu tapped his forehead. If he guessed right, they were off to find the man and woman from before, since it seemed like only those two had gone up there.

"What's that got to do with me! That guy asked for it, calling me a beggar."

Making up his mind, Wang Yu started to move forward, but then he stopped as the girl's sad face flashed across his mind. Although the guy was annoying, the girl was innocent. Well then, he might as well go take a look.

With that thought, Wang Yu dashed off from another direction, beating the man with the gold chain and his group to the couple, stopping less than five meters away from them. He bowed toward a tombstone and said softly, "A good show is about to begin, I'll rest here and watch. Do you mind?" After speaking, Wang Yu quietly observed the tombstone.

A few seconds later, with a satisfied nod, he whispered to the tombstone, "Alright! I know you agree, and I also know you're eager to watch, so let's enjoy it together." Having said that, Wang Yu sat down on the ground, took out a cigarette, lit it, and looked forward to the drama unfolding.

The man with the gold chain, leading eight henchmen, strode towards the man and woman, shouting as they walked: "Hu Liang, you're quite the hider, aren't you? You weren't easy to find."

Upon hearing this, the man swiftly turned around, took off his sunglasses for a look, and immediately put on an ingratiating smile. Pulling out a cigarette, he said to the man with the gold chain, "Hey, Crippled Wolf bro, I didn't expect to bump into you here. What's up, you're here to pay respects to your ancestors too? Have a smoke."

"So this guy's name is Hu Liang."

Wang Yu silently nodded, though the nickname given to the gold chain guy was really subpar—a wolf, but a crippled one at that. His own alias sounded much better. Phantom, now that was imposing! How badass!

Crippled Wolf swatted away the cigarette offered by Hu Liang with a ferocious look, saying: "Pay respects to your mother, stop playing dumb with me. If you don't settle things today, I'll be here next year paying respects to you." With that, Crippled Wolf viciously kicked Hu Liang to the ground.

The girl hurried to help Hu Liang up, glared at Crippled Wolf and the others, and shouted: "Who are you people? What right do you have to hit someone? Careful, I'll call the cops on you!"

The girl was forceful in her tone, not showing any sign of fear, prompting Wang Yu to admire her in secret. He remembered that before going up the mountain, Hu Liang had referred to the girl as Lin Xi.

"Call the cops?" Crippled Wolf laughed heartily, glanced at Lin Xi, and said, "Go ahead. This punk owes me money and keeps dodging me. Let's see who the cops will take away when they get here."

Lin Xi was at a loss for words, her gaze shifting to Hu Liang, filled with doubt.

Looking embarrassed, Hu Liang forced a smile and said to Crippled Wolf, "Bro Crippled Wolf, it's not that I'm avoiding you, I just really don't have the money right now. Can you give me a few more days?"

"How much time have I given you already? I see you can't even pay it back. Forget it, I'll just waste you today, and consider the money I lent you a donation to charity."

After uttering these menacing words, Crippled Wolf took a machete from one of his men and held it against Hu Liang's neck.

Hu Liang's face turned pale quickly, sweat beading on his forehead, and his knees buckled, dropping him to the ground.

Wang Yu shook his head with contempt, thinking to himself what a wimp, 'One's knees are as precious as gold'—how can you kneel so easily before others?

"Wait!" Lin Xi suddenly shouted, addressing Crippled Wolf, "How much does he owe you? I'll help him pay."

"You'll help him pay?" Crippled Wolf stared at Lin Xi, then burst out laughing before saying, "You've got nerve! Tell me, what's your relationship with him, and why are you willing to pay off his debt?""

"Bro Crippled Wolf, she is my girlfriend." Before Lin Xi could speak, Hu Liang was the one who interjected.

"Oh, is that so? Who would've thought a loser like you could have such a beautiful girlfriend?" Crippled Wolf mocked Hu Liang for a bit, and then stretched out his hand towards Lin Xi, saying, "Five hundred thousand, hand it over!""

"What? Five hundred thousand?" Lin Xi's mouth dropped open in astonishment. She could have managed a few thousand, but five hundred thousand? Where would she come up with that kind of money?

Not saying a word? Weren't you all confident just a moment ago?" taunted Crippled Wolf, grinning as he moved closer to Lin Xi. Alarmed, Lin Xi hastily stepped back, saying anxiously, "What are you doing? Don't come any closer."

"Tsk tsk..." Crippled Wolf clicked his tongue a few times, shook his head with a sigh, and said, "Such a beauty, wasted on him. Better to come with me instead!""

Watching this, Wang Yu shook his head, thinking it was a pity—this Hu Liang was nothing but trash, not even daring to stand up for his girlfriend when she was being harassed. What was Lin Xi doing with him?

At that moment, the situation changed again. Hu Liang, looking at Crippled Wolf, said, "Bro Crippled Wolf, I can't come up with five hundred thousand right now, but I did manage to get ten thousand today. It's in the car. How about this, I'll let my girlfriend go get it for you, and I'll stay here with you guys, okay?"

After hearing this, Crippled Wolf thought for a second, looked at Hu Liang, then nodded, apparently not worried about any tricks.

Hu Liang stood up, walked over to Lin Xi, and said, "Lin Xi, go to the car and bring the money. It's in the purse on the back seat, got it?"

Lin Xi was stunned, having no idea about this arrangement, but when she saw Hu Liang giving her meaningful glances, she instantly understood. He was trying to have her leave in order to protect her safety.

Once she realized this, Lin Xi felt so moved she hardly knew what to do with herself, yet this was just wishful thinking on her part, as Hu Liang was treating her like a tool.

With many a backward glance, Lin Xi made her way down the mountain, her eyes full of worry for Hu Liang. When she had gotten about twenty meters away from the group, Hu Liang suddenly shouted, "Lin Xi, run! Go call the police!"

Startled, Crippled Wolf immediately yelled, "Quick! Catch that chick!"

Hearing this, Lin Xi hurried down the mountain. As Crippled Wolf's eight men heard the Boss's command, they scattered and chased after her. Seizing the moment, Hu Liang shoved Crippled Wolf hard and then quickly ran down the mountain from the other side.

"Fuck a duck, I've been had!"

Crippled Wolf, staring at the receding figure of Hu Liang, was gnashing his teeth with rage. He wanted to pursue but, given his heavy body, he gritted his teeth and, after a glance towards Lin Xi's direction, thought if she got away, he would take it out on his girlfriend.

By this time, Lin Xi had been caught by the eight thugs and was being carried up the mountain, all the while continuing to scream and shout.

"You bastards, let me go!"

Wang Yu sneered, thinking Hu Liang was scum, using his own girlfriend as a weapon just to save his skin. Crippled Wolf was a brainless piece of trash; if Hu Liang had the money, wouldn't he have paid already? Why would he have to kneel on the ground?

As for Lin Xi, she was a bit foolish, feeling grateful to someone who was exploiting her.

Soon, Lin Xi was brought before Crippled Wolf again, who had a very unpleasant look on his face. He said to Lin Xi, "Nice act, the two of you working together, so at least one could get away. But Hu Liang is really something for being able to abandon such a pretty girlfriend like this. If it was my girlfriend who was caught, even if I could run, I damn well wouldn't."

Wang Yu was stunned by the words, not expecting Crippled Wolf to say something that actually made sense.

Lin Xi bit her lower lip hard, snorted coldly, and then turned her head away. Yet, Crippled Wolf's words affected her greatly, filling her heart with a growing sense of loss. How could Hu Liang leave her behind?

"Since Hu Liang has run away, I'll have to settle the score with you, although by the looks of it, you don't have much money either."

Crippled Wolf smirked at Lin Xi and continued, "You're so pretty, and you've got a great body. How about this: I'll take you to work in the nightlife industry. Once you've earned enough to pay off Hu Liang's debt to me, I'll let you go."

Lin Xi arched her eyebrows; Crippled Wolf was suggesting she become a prostitute.

"Spit! Don't even think about it; I'd rather die than do it," Lin Xi spat at Crippled Wolf, then turned her head away again.

"Oh, is that so?" Crippled Wolf sneered, "Do you believe I'll let my brothers have their way with you right now?"

"You wouldn't dare!" Lin Xi exclaimed forcefully, though her confidence was fading, and terror was mounting in her eyes.

"You wanna bet? I'm gonna take you right now." As Crippled Wolf spoke, he grabbed Lin Xi's arm with a fierce expression.

"Asshole, let go of me!" Lin Xi punched and kicked at Crippled Wolf, but could not break free from his grasp. In desperation, she bit down hard on his arm.

"Son of a bitch!" Crippled Wolf, in pain, jerked his arm away and landed a heavy slap across Lin Xi's face.

Lin Xi fell to the ground, her face bearing the crimson imprint of five fingers, with blood trickling from the corner of her mouth.

"Damn it! So ungrateful. Hold her down for me," Crippled Wolf ordered, and two thugs stepped forward to grab Lin Xi's arms, one on each side. No matter how much she struggled, it was to no avail. Lin Xi could only cry out and kick desperately.

Crippled Wolf smirked and walked up, grabbed both sides of Lin Xi's blazer and pulled hard. The buttons burst off instantly, revealing a white blouse underneath. But Crippled Wolf didn't stop there; he grabbed the blouse and tore it open with one fierce pull, and the blouse was ripped from her body.

Next, Crippled Wolf laughed menacingly as he pulled off Lin Xi's skirt.

In that moment, Lin Xi was left in nothing but a set of pink lingerie, her fair skin exposed to the air, radiating a tempting glow.

Seeing resistance was futile, Lin Xi stopped struggling and crying out. She just lay there silently, staring blankly at the sky, her heart ashen, yet tears continued to stream down her face, unceasingly.

If today she were to be defiled by Crippled Wolf, Lin Xi would rather end her life by suicide than continue to live in a body that had been tainted.

Eyeing the sensual beauty before him, Crippled Wolf couldn't help but swallow hard, slowly leaning down toward her. But just then, a fit of coughing came from nearby, followed by a figure abruptly appearing in everyone's line of sight.

Finally, unable to stand by any longer, Wang Yu revealed himself. If he hadn't intervened, he might as well have become a Ninja Turtle. Any person with a shred of conscience would step in to help a girl in distress, let alone Wang Yu, who always prided himself on being a righteous young man.
