Chapter 285: Surrounded Once Again
Translator: _Min_ |
After pondering for a moment, the young boy agreed, “Okay.”
With nowhere else to go and uncertain of what lay ahead, he felt indifferent.
Moreover, for some reason, he felt a sense of familiarity and an instinctive trust towards this woman before him, believing she wouldn’t harm him.
Gu Dai nodded, closed the car door, and walked away.
The car was parked not far from the school, and soon, Gu Dai arrived there, guided by students to the teacher’s office.
Gu Dai had already contacted the school in advance, so upon arrival, she directly proceeded with the transfer procedures.
In the midst of this, a middle-aged woman with a gentle demeanor approached her and asked softly, “Are you Gu Yin’s relative?”
Gu Dai nodded and replied, “I’m Gu Yin’s cousin. And you are?”
The woman smiled, “I’m her homeroom teacher, Wei Xue.”
As Gu Yin’s teacher was amiable, Gu Dai also spoke softly, “h.e.l.lo, Teacher Wei. Is there something I can help with?”
Wei Xue hesitated, then said, “I remember Gu Yin lives with her father. The transfer process requires a guardian. Why are you…”
Wei Xue didn’t finish her sentence, but Gu Dai understood her implication.
“There’s been a change. I’m now Gu Yin’s guardian. I plan to take her to study in the Capital,” Gu Dai explained.
Wei Xue nodded, and although she didn’t know the specifics of what had happened, she still let out a sigh of relief, feeling that Gu Yin’s cousin would be kind to her in the future.
She couldn’t help but add, “Gu Yin is a good student and always well-behaved, but perhaps due to her father’s influence, she’s quite timid. Sometimes, even when bullied by cla.s.smates, she chooses to suffer in silence.”
Remembering Wen Ye’s treatment of Gu Yin and his actions, Gu Dai felt even more sympathetic towards the girl and softly a.s.sured, “Don’t worry, Teacher Wei. I’ll take good care of Gu Yin and help her heal from her past experiences.” Wei Xue smiled, rea.s.sured by Gu Dai’s commitment.
After completing the procedures, Gu Dai left the school. However, she soon sensed something amiss and stopped. Turning around, she saw several figures hiding nearby and calmly called out, “Come out.”
A group of seven to eight men in black emerged.
“You were the one protecting that kid, right? Hand him over now, and if you’re nice to us, we won’t beat you up. Otherwise, I…”
Gu Dai, having experienced such situations before, didn’t even let them finish. She asked directly, “Are you going to attack one by one, or all together?”
The leader, angered, clenched his fist, “You’re quite bold, lady. We wanted to be gentle with you, but since you’re asking for it, don’t blame us for being rough.” Gu Dai rotated her wrists and coldly declared, “If you’re not attacking, I will.” She moved swiftly like a swallow, throwing left and right hooks, weaving between the men. A sweeping leg kick brought all of them down in succession. They were strong and robust, and when they fell to the ground, a loud thud echoed through the air. Clumsily sprawled on the ground, they found themselves unable to stand up.
“Bo… boss… She’s too strong. We can’t beat her,” one of the men lamented.
The leader, face red with fury, couldn’t understand how they were overpowered by a seemingly fragile woman.
“Never mind, we still have other tactics,” the leader declared.
Just then, a car drove towards them, speeding directly at Gu Dai.
Gu Dai watched as a car hurtled towards her, her pupils constricting as she quickened her pace to dodge the vehicle.
The gang leader, who hadn’t expected Gu Dai to move so swiftly, gaped in astonishment and blurted out in disbelief, “Good heavens, is she even human?” Seeing their plan foiled, their faces turned deathly pale. They tried to force themselves to stand up to confront Gu Dai, but for some reason, they couldn’t muster any strength in their bodies, as if they were paralyzed, and couldn’t get up.
Gu Dai, watching the car crash into a tree, let out a light sigh of relief.
However, to her dismay, another car approached, moving even faster than the previous one.
Estimating the distance, she realized she couldn’t avoid it.
As she attempted to evade, she raised her hand to protect her head, striving to minimize the injury..
