Hearing noise coming from the gym, Lu Dahu quickly rushed over. When he saw Yan Xiaoyan confronting Ayesha, he held his breath and sneaked up behind her in an attempt to choke her from behind.
Yan Xiaoyan also held her breath when she saw Lu Dahu approach Ayesha from the back. Her heart was about to jump out. When she thought the plan was about to work, she saw a sneer from the corner of Ayesha's mouth.
She moved like a leopard.
The girl turned around and performed a roundhouse kick. The swift action directly landed on Lu Dahu's unguarded chest. The power, disproportionate to her size, kicked the almost two hundred pounds, well-built man, away.
Yan Xiaoyan looked at the scene in disbelief as the hand carrying the stick shook uncontrollably.
Although she held a weapon in hand, it did not bring her the slightest sense of safety.
However, she didn't back down.
Ayesha looked at her in silence. Then, grabbing the box-shaped signal jammer from her back, she turned off the power.
”Static-, Xiaoyan, how's the progress going.” Seeing the communication channel was restored, Xie Lei desperately asked.
”Lei. I might-” Yan Xiaoyan said with bitterness in her voice.
But before she finished her sentence, the communication channel ceased again.
Ayesha restarted the signal jammer, tossed the device away, and opened the EP on her wrist.
The wireless tracker in her pocket already sent the communication information to the EP. It marked two related red dots on the EP map.
Utilizing the brief window when the communication channel was restored, she located the ”commander's” coordinates.
The magic of future technology was something these ”primitives” would never understand.
Yan Xiaoyan was shaking when she saw Ayesha's series of moves. She didn't know what she was doing. The calmness before had completely vanished. The confidence she built based on her fighting ability was quickly shattered by the clean moves of the girl in front of her.
But, for him...
Yan Xiaoyan's eyes were reignited with courage when she thought of Xie Lei. She gritted her teeth and dashed at Ayesha, kicking with lightning speed.
Since she was at a disadvantage in terms of defense, she must attack.
This kick was aimed directly at Ayesha's head.
But the girl remained calm. Unlike what Yan Xiaoyan had imagined, she easily dodged her kick. Then, with cat-like agility, Ayesha was behind her.
As Yan Xiaoyan had guessed, they were not on the same level.
Before she was able to react, a sharp pain came from the back of her neck, making her lose consciousness. She immediately fell to the ground.
...
”Someone attacked the mansion,” Ayesha concisely reported.
Jiang Chen's expression changed immediately, ”Are you okay?”
”I'm okay. The attackers had some creative ideas, but the techniques they used were that of an amateur's. Based on the skill levels of those people, they must have someone strong assisting them to avoid the patrol team. Based on initial speculation, that person should be a hacker proficient in cyber warfare,” Ayesha said softly as she looked grimly at the three people lying in the basement with their hands and feet tied up.
Hearing Ayesha was safe, Jiang Chen was relieved. But then he quickly realized that his worry was a bit unwarranted.
After deliberating for a moment, Jiang Chen asked in an undertone, ”Do you know who sent them there.”
”Not clear yet. But I already have the coordinates of the hacker. I'll send it to you by phone.”
”Mhmm, I'll take care of it.” Jiang Chen hung up the phone.
Shortly after, Little White shook as a picture of the coordinates were sent to Jiang Chen's phone.
Two dots were connected. One dot was located in his mansion, while the other one was located in the rural area of Wanghai City.
He looked in the direction of Xia Shiyu's bedroom and hesitated.
But in the end, he sighed. He decided not to go up and knock on the door. Instead, he put on his shoes and left the apartment.
...
With her back against the cold wooden door, Xia Shiyu hugged her knees as she buried her head in her arms. However, through her arms, the red hue on her gorgeous face could still be seen.
[Wooo, I want to die... What did I just do.]
A soft whimper escaped her mouth as her ostrich-like head buried deeper between her legs.
Her thoughts were a mess. The furious pounding in her left chest was too distracting.
[What if he knocks on the door?
Should I open it? But... I almost just did that kind of thing.
Ahhhhh! I want to die. This is so embarrassing.
But I should open the door. It would be rude just to leave him hanging in the living room. If I explained, it would get rid of the -]
Bang!
The sound of the door closing transmitted through from the outside.
Xia Shiyu paused for a moment as she slowly lifted her head up.
Seemed to be the front door.
He left?
He just left?
While she let out a sigh of relief, for some reason, she felt disappointed.
But as to why she felt disappointed, she couldn't give a reason.
...
Driving furiously on the road, Jiang Chen glanced at the red dot on the GPS before he fixated his gaze back onto the road.
He let out a sigh as he held onto the wheel.
”It would be better to find a chance and talk to her,” He mumbled. Jiang Chen turned the steering wheel before parking the car near the target's community.
