Chapter 31: Chapter 31 Blocked
"It should be you who let me through!" Lin Xi thought to himself, but didn’t say much and moved to the left.
At this moment, the girl moved to the right, and they collided again.
If someone were watching now, it would look like the girl voluntarily threw herself into Lin Xi’s arms.
But, quite soft!
"Looks small but has some flesh."
Lin Xi is 1.75 meters tall, while the girl is about 1.58 meters, which makes the height difference quite noticeable. He looked down and found the girl staring at him angrily.
"Are you going to let me through or not?" the girl said angrily.
"I will."
Lin Xi moved to the right, and the girl moved to the left, colliding once more.
"What exactly do you want?" The girl was furious, thinking Lin Xi was doing it on purpose, not realizing that Lin Xi had moved first every time, meaning she was the one who rushed and caused them to bump into each other.
"I won’t move, you go first." Lin Xi looked at the girl’s angry expression, finding her cute and doll-like, which made him smile.
"Okay, you better keep your word."
As the girl was about to walk, she found her arm grabbed by the person in front of her, which made her grit her teeth in anger, "You said you weren’t doing it on purpose? Let go of me."
"Alright, but it seems you can’t leave now." Lin Xi reminded, letting go of her arm.
Only then did the girl notice two people ahead, one with yellow hair and the other with purple hair, blocking her path.
She looked back to see a red-haired guy with two more yellow-haired guys coming over leisurely, blocking her path from behind too, leaving no room to escape.
"Xiaoxin, where are you running to? Come home with me, I won’t scold you anymore, I’ll listen to you from now on." The red-haired guy stopped a meter in front of Lin Xi, addressing the girl.
"Yes, sister-in-law, go back with the big brother."
"Big brother was wrong earlier, didn’t you see he’s admitted his mistake?"
"And it’s not safe outside, what if you run into bad people?"
,,,,
They all started persuading with various words, but their frivolous looks with mischievous smiles directed at the girl seemed strange.
"Sister-in-law my foot, I don’t even know you guys, stop talking nonsense." The girl grabbed onto Lin Xi’s arm, like clutching a straw while drowning.
"Xiaoxin, how can you treat me this way, haven’t you forgotten our wonderful times? Such beautiful memories, haven’t you forgotten?" The red-haired guy stared intently at the girl.
"What nonsense are you talking about, who did that with you, I don’t even know you, you lunatic." The girl exclaimed frantically, then looked pitifully at Lin Xi like clinging to the last straw, pleading, "Brother, please believe me, I really don’t know them, they’re just bad people."
Lin Xi glanced at the girl, then at the red-haired guy, and after thinking for a moment said, "Maybe it’s better you go back with your boyfriend, running around outside isn’t really safe."
"Yes, yes, see even this brother thinks so, Xiaoxin, you should come over, we can go back, it’s good for you." The yellow-haired guy chuckled mischievously, rubbing his hands as if signaling his pals to grab her.
"You, you, you..., how can you be so stupid!" The girl scolded Lin Xi.
From the moment she bumped into this person, until they were blocked by the red-haired group, she found him quite calm, showing no sign of fear.
If it were an average person being cornered by a few thugs, they’d be frightened pale and eager to flee immediately.
Moreover, when she grabbed Lin Xi’s arm earlier, she discovered it was very solid, making her suspect he must have some skills.
Even if he didn’t, it was still better than facing them alone.
Lin Xi’s mouth formed into a small smile, but he did not respond.
Yet the slight expression was noticed by the girl, realizing he was saying it on purpose, feeling angry but unable to react, "Brother, please help get rid of these bad guys, I’ll accompany you tonight! Plus, I am...!"
"Uh." Lin Xi was a bit taken aback, he just wanted to tease her a little, not really intending to leave her in the lurch.
However, if she wanted to repay like this, which wasn’t coercion, and Lin Xi wasn’t a stubborn person, he could absolutely accept it.
"It’s a deal!" Lin Xi replied.
The girl was stunned, not expecting him to agree so readily, given that the red-haired group consisted of five people, and street thugs likely had plenty of fight experience.
"Brother, you’re awesome, go on, you got this!" The girl encouraged him from the sidelines, planning to run while they fought, thinking about her first night, "you won’t find me if I escape, will you?"
The red-haired group of five heard it all loud and clear.
"Kid, I’ll give you another chance, immediately! Get lost as far as you can!" The red-haired guy’s tone turned cold, addressing Lin Xi.
"Brother, don’t chicken out, hit them!" The girl interjected.
Lin Xi glanced at her, then told the yellow-haired guy, "All five of you come at once, don’t waste time, besides don’t impersonate the boss in front of me."
"Damn, he really thinks he’s Ip Man, huh!" The red-haired guy was furious, he intended to attack together anyway, but the other party suggesting it made them seem pathetic.
"Go."
At the red-haired guy’s call, the five lunged at Lin Xi.
Lin Xi smiled; it seemed these five were used to ganging up on one person, no need for pointless talk before.
Using his right foot for support, he lifted his left foot, and Lin Xi’s whole body spun like a high-speed top as the five approached, and in one twist, they flew away.
No suspense, each got a kick in the chin.
The five thugs saw stars as they flew out, heads spinning as if with orbiting stars, and the severe chin pain almost knocked them out.
"Bang bang bang bang bang"
At almost the same moment, they landed heavily five meters away, but none fainted, instead clutching their chins and screaming like a slaughtered pig.
Lin Xi controlled the strength well, otherwise, their heads would have flown off, but he noticed the girl along the wall sneaking away and yelled,
"Stop, where are you going?"
The girl jumped in fright, turned back in shock, completely stunned.
She saw the previously arrogant group of five holding their chins, writhing in pain on the ground.
"What happened?"
"What just happened?"
She only meant to slip away when they charged at Lin Xi, but barely got far before she was called out.
However, looking back, the whole situation had turned around.
"Did you... did you do all this?" The girl covered her mouth, disbelief on her face.
Lin Xi smiled and didn’t directly answer, instead grabbed her arm earnestly saying, "Come on, let’s go."
