Romantic Medical Immortal-Chapter 95: An Accidental Encounter with My Middle School Deskmate
Meanwhile, on Massage Street!
Yang Chen had just gotten out of the taxi when he saw Liu Wen anxiously waiting by the roadside.
Liu Wen saw Yang Chen arriving, and a burst of joy filled her heart. She immediately went up to him, eyes red-rimmed, and said, "Brother Cheng, you’re finally here."
Yang Chen asked, "What happened?"
Liu Wen was very flustered, her eyes red, tears seeming ready to fall from the corners. She said, "While my brother and I were shopping, suddenly a van stopped in front of us, and a group of people got out. Without any warning, they beat up my brother and then took him away..."
"Did you call the police?"
After thinking for a moment, Yang Chen asked.
"No!" Liu Wen immediately shook her head, appearing very tense. She said, "The people threatened me when they left, saying I couldn’t call the police, or they’d kill my brother. Yang Chen, what should we do now... if something happens to my brother, I’ll..."
"Wen Wen, don’t get too excited, listen to me!"
Seeing her so frantic, Yang Chen promptly asked, "Did you see who took your brother just now? Any impressions about their appearance, height, etc.?"
"I’ve remembered!"
These words suddenly reminded Liu Wen of something. She got excited and said, "It seems that among those who beat my brother, one is his colleague. If you hadn’t mentioned it, I’d almost forgotten!"
"Colleague?"
Yang Chen frowned and asked, "What does your brother do?"
Liu Wen hurriedly replied, "My brother works at a game room."
"Let’s go, take me to where your brother works. Since among the ones who beat him was his colleague, his colleague must know something!"
Yang Chen simply analyzed and then spoke to Liu Wen.
"Brother Cheng, can just the two of us handle this?" Liu Wen’s eyes showed worry, "My brother’s colleagues are all mixed up with society, really tough. I’m worried you might be in danger if you go."
Even though Liu Wen wanted to rescue her brother now, she also didn’t want to cause harm to Yang Chen.
"Don’t worry, I’ve practiced martial arts, just take me there!"
Yang Chen affectionately ruffled Liu Wen’s hair, showing great confidence.
If it were before, he definitely wouldn’t have stepped in so easily, and even if he did, he would think of a flawless strategy first. But now he felt no fear.
A cultivator at the third level of Qi Refinement can easily handle a bunch of thugs.
"Okay!" At that moment, Liu Wen felt an overwhelming sense of safety, as if no one could hurt her with Yang Chen by her side.
Soon, Yang Chen and Liu Wen arrived at a game room named ’Golden Shine’.
The game room’s entrance wasn’t very large, and it was quite simply decorated. However, the business at this game room was excellent; through the window, one could see it bustling with chatter and excitement inside.
"That’s the van that took my brother away!"
At this point, Liu Wen pointed to a van parked not far away, excitedly saying to Yang Chen.
Yang Chen nodded lightly and said, "Wait here, I’ll go in and take a look."
"Let me go in with you."
Liu Wen’s eyes were full of concern; she really didn’t feel safe letting Yang Chen go in alone to take such risks.
However, Yang Chen was very serious. He said, "You just wait here; I’ll handle it if any problems arise inside. If you go in, you’ll distract me..."
"Bang! Crash!"
Before Yang Chen finished speaking, suddenly the glass door of the game room shattered, and a figure flew out from inside, landing heavily on the ground with a thud.
"Get him, don’t let him run!"
"Damn it, trying to run, I’ll kill you!"
"Quick quick quick!!"
Afterward, a group of young men wielding sticks rushed out of the game room. They were all fairly young, but their faces were fierce; they clearly were used to street fighting.
Quickly, Yang Chen was drawn to a figure among them, his gaze immediately turning somber.
The owner of the figure was a man in his thirties with a big bald head and a terrifying knife scar on his left cheek. He held a blood-stained machete, swaggering out of the game room, acting arrogantly.
"Brother Chen?"
Seeing the man lying on the ground, Liu Wen was dumbfounded and immediately said to Yang Chen nearby, "Yang Chen, that’s... that’s my brother!"
Hmm??
Yang Chen was slightly taken aback; he hadn’t even gone in to rescue anyone yet, and this guy just fought his way out—what bravery!
"Brother!!"
Liu Wen shouted excitedly.
Upon hearing this call, Liu Xuan immediately looked up, and when he saw Liu Wen not far away, he was momentarily stunned. Then his face showed worry, and he endured severe pain to rush over to Liu Wen.
"Brother, you’re hurt!"
Seeing Liu Xuan covered in wounds, Liu Wen couldn’t help but worry.
"It’s nothing, let’s go now!"
Liu Xuan grabbed Liu Wen’s arm and ran. He knew ’Scarface’s nature too well; if he noticed his little sister’s looks, he would definitely do something beastly.
"Damn, Liu Xuan!!"
Staring at the man before him, Yang Chen suddenly froze, and his face showed indelible shock. He never imagined Liu Wen’s brother would be his classmate from middle school.
Yes, they weren’t only schoolmates but also deskmates.
They had an especially good relationship back then.
After he went to the countryside, they lost all contact.
Meeting his old deskmate now, Yang Chen felt very excited, silently sighing over how mysterious fate can be.
"You are?"
Upon hearing this, Liu Xuan immediately turned and looked toward Yang Chen. Seeing that face, he felt an inexplicable sense of familiarity but couldn’t remember where he’d seen it before.
"I’m Yang Chen, your deskmate!"
Since Liu Xuan couldn’t recall for a while, Yang Chen quickly reminded him.
"Damn!!"
With this remark, Liu Xuan instantly recognized the person before him, but he didn’t hurry to reminisce; he just grabbed Yang Chen’s arm and said, "Let’s go now!!"
This way, he gripped Yang Chen with one hand and Liu Wen with the other, and they quickly ran away.
"Trying to flee??"
Scarface’s expression suddenly turned sinister, and he waved a big hand, "Chase them!"
A bunch of underlings charged at Yang Chen, Liu Xuan, and Liu Wen like wolves and tigers.
So, Yang Chen, Liu Xuan, and Liu Wen ran ahead, followed by a dozen attackers wielding sticks, instantly becoming the most eye-catching sight on Massage Street!
While running, Yang Chen kept observing his old deskmate.
He remembered clearly that in the past, Liu Xuan’s nickname was ’Little Skinny Monkey,’ short and thin. Now, he’s tall and hefty, seemingly weighing over 200 pounds, like a human fortress.
Not seeing each other for a few years, what a dramatic change!
"Stop right there, damn it, keeping running and I’ll kill you!"
"This Massage Street is our territory. Where do you think you can run to?"
Just then, there was continuous hollering from behind.
"Hold on!!"
Yang Chen suddenly stopped in his tracks, looking thoroughly perplexed. Wait, why am I running??
