Chapter 39 - Keeping Watch At Swallow Capital University
As soon as Su You and Su Shufang left, Di Jiu stepped on Yuan Shou, who was lying on the ground. “So, tell me… How many people has that old bastard Jia Qian sent to deal with yours truly and where was he planning to take me?”
“I can’t say…” Yuan Shou said.
Di Jiu nodded his head. “Yeah, Jia Qian would definitely not let you live if you told me anything. Well, it looks like you have no reason to live anymore.”
Di Jiu grabbed his dagger and swiftly moved it close to Yuan Shou’s throat. Yuan Shou gulped in fear as the dagger moved a few inches away from him.
He felt helpless in the face of imminent death. “Wait! I’ll tell you…”
Di Jiu patted Yuan Shou’s cheeks with the dagger. “Why are you acting as if you are a loyal lackey, when you don’t even have a third of my skills? You are just making me despise you for no reason…”
Di Jiu slowly started to put the dagger down as he asked, “How many people did that Jia bastard send to deal with me? Where are they hiding out?”
“Lui Wan and Bi Zhengsheng have arrived in the Swallow Capital, but I don’t know where they are staying. Guo Yan and I were supposed to kidnap Su You while they went to deal with you. Master Jia lives in a villa in the Three Bridges at the Changhu District in Daicheng City. He plans on sending more men to capture all your family members after he has captured you…” Yuan Shou answered in one breath.
This fellow was as ruthless as Wu Bahu. Di Jiu gripped his dagger as he patted Yuan Shou’s forehead.
The Heaton Hotel was a six-star hotel in the Swallow Capital. The 88-story hotel was located at Zhudun Road, the most bustling area of the city.
Lui Wan had just gotten out of the shower of one of the presidential suites on the 58th floor. She was dressed in casual clothes, but she looked even more beautiful when she pulled her hair into a bun. She was no longer respectful and cautious, like she had been in front of Jia Qian. Instead, she gave off the vibe of a shy, quiet young girl.
Standing in front of her was Bi Zhengsheng, who could never have pictured Lui Wan as a shy, quiet young girl. He knew very well just how scary this woman could be. Even multiple clones of him would probably be unable to withstand one of her slaps.
Although he was not picky when it came to women, his ideal type were pure, innocent young girls. He would never ever develop feelings for the woman in front of him, no matter the circumstances. Although he shared the same master with her on the surface, her status was actually much higher than his.
“Tell me what you achieved today,” Lui Wan said as she sat down and poured herself a cup of tea.
Bi Zhengsheng remained standing on the same spot as he replied respectfully, “Yuan Shou and Guo Wei called me last night to inform me that they captured Su You and her aunt, Su Shufang. However, I spotted Su You at the Swallow Capital University today. I tried calling Yuan Shou and Guo Wei multiple times, but there was no answer. I suspect that something bad must have happened to them…”
Bi Zhengsheng’s suspicions were not baseless. Di Jiu had killed seven of his men in Luo Jin without him noticing a single thing after all. Di Jiu was currently in the Swallow Capital, so it would definitely be bad if he happened to witness Yuan Shou and Guo Wei kidnap Su You.
Lui Wan remained calm. She looked at Bi Zhengsheng as she said offhandedly, “Looks like you weren’t slacking off during the past few days. Send some people to keep watch at the Swallow Capital University and its surroundings right now. Unless I’m wrong, Di Jiu will be making a trip to the Swallow Capital University soon… You know what? I think I’ll just head over there myself.”
It was obvious that she knew what Bi Zhengsheng had been investigating. Her theory that Di Jiu would soon be visiting the Swallow Capital University was actually correct. Lui Wan assumed that he was either going to the Swallow Capital University to look for Su You or Tan Yueyue. However, Di Jiu was actually preparing to go there to meet Ji Xiaorong.
Lui Wan despised Bi Zhengsheng with all her heart. He had been practising with Master Jia for years, yet he was currently only at the middle stage of the Yellow Tier. He had been progressing as slowly as a dog.
