My Super Beautiful Lady Boss-Chapter 620 - 613: Dog Bites Dog

Su Xuan hadn’t expected Liu Feilong to also get involved in searching for Song Shuangshuang. It seemed that the other party not only had plenty of money but also had formidable connections. To find Song Shuangshuang, they had almost mobilized all the underworld forces in Qiutian City. Su Xuan dared to say that if Song Shuangshuang were to walk on the main road at this time, within five minutes, someone would definitely recognize her.

Now, Song Shuangshuang’s photos were posted everywhere. Su Xuan called Tang Tiantian, telling her not to let Song Shuangshuang go out these days because there were people outside wanting to capture her.

Su Xuan deliberately shared this information with Tang Tiantian and asked her not to mention it to Song Shuangshuang to avoid alarming her.

"Oh, got it," Tang Tiantian hung up the phone, being very sensible and really not mentioning a word to Song Shuangshuang.

Now, Su Xuan didn’t know who the ultimate backer was, but he was sure that this matter was largely related to Song Tianbao of the Song Family on Mount Everest, because Song Shuangshuang was his daughter, and he cared about her more than anyone else.

Just now on the phone, Liu Feilong said he would reward one million if they could find Song Shuangshuang. Of course, Su Xuan wasn’t interested in the money at all. Su Xuan’s life was almost at stake; what use was having more money? Now, the top priority for Su Xuan was to find the Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus, but he was currently hindered by the matter of Song Shuangshuang. He could only resolve Song Shuangshuang’s situation first before dealing with his own issues. After all, he was the one who had brought her down from the mountain, and he felt it was his responsibility.

"Is there anything I can do to help now?"

Qiuyue asked Su Xuan.

Su Xuan shook his head. Now, other than protecting Song Shuangshuang, everything else was secondary.

Suddenly Qiuyue said, "How about I go and kill Wang Fangqian? He had previously paid me to kill you, and if he sees you still alive and well, I believe he definitely won’t let you off."

Reminded by Qiuyue, Su Xuan actually felt Wang Fangqian was indeed a potential threat, better removed sooner rather than later.

Su Xuan shook his head at Qiuyue. Previously, as a professional assassin, she had already killed too many people. Su Xuan didn’t want her to continue making mistakes on this path. Killing was ultimately not good, especially those who were innocent. It’s unsettling to live that way.

In reality, Qiuyue also felt guilty, but her pretended strength covered it up.

That evening, Tang Fengyun and Tang Sisi, who had been busy at the Datang Restaurant all day, also came back. Seeing Su Xuan, they were very happy, especially Tang Fengyun. The last time Tang Fengyun had talked with Su Xuan alone, he mentioned how his eldest daughter, Tang Sisi, being a strong woman out in the world, lived a tiring life. He felt Su Xuan was quite compatible with her and hoped they could end up together.

When no one else was around, Tang Fengyun would call Su Xuan his son-in-law, and Su Xuan, embarrassed, dared not refuse.

"Su Xuan, it’s been a long time since just the two of us had a drink. How about a couple of glasses?"

Tang Fengyun suggested cheerfully.

"Let’s not, I have to go to work tomorrow," Su Xuan lied in refusal. What kind of job did Su Xuan have, being an unemployed drifter.

Tang Sisi, being two or three years older than Su Xuan, naturally knew he was lying. She sat at the table and stomped on Su Xuan’s foot hard, giving him a cold look, blaming him for talking nonsense.

In the years she had helped her father, Tang Fengyun, manage their business, it hadn’t been easy developing a strong woman persona. When Su Xuan had first arrived in Qiutian City, he had gone to the vegetable market with her. Back then, when Liu Feilong’s people came to collect protection money, Tang Sisi adamantly refused. Su Xuan genuinely admired Tao Sisi for her fierce, broad-browed, smiling face. She was gentle when needed and stern when necessary, a type Su Xuan quite liked.

Just then, Su Xuan looked at the time outside and started feeling uneasy. Keeping Song Shuangshuang here, could he be bringing disaster upon them? Su Xuan was someone who disliked involving others in his troubles.

Sooner rather than later, Su Xuan quickly decided to arrange for Song Shuangshuang to stay at a hotel outside tonight, especially since someone had spotted Song Shuangshuang earlier that evening. Su Xuan knew the way Liu Feilong conducted his business; sometimes a few deaths meant nothing to them.

"Shuangshuang, I’ll take you out to stay tonight,"

Su Xuan said.

"Why? I just started enjoying the day with her," Tang Tiantian disagreed. However, Song Shuangshuang was very obedient to Su Xuan’s words; she went to pack her clothes as she only had retro-style clothes from Mount Everest. Tang Tiantian also took out a few new clothes she had bought but hadn’t worn, for Song Shuangshuang to take and wear.

Su Xuan initially wanted to arrange for Song Shuangshuang in a hotel, but considering that hotels now required real-name registration and Song Shuangshuang didn’t have an ID, this posed a problem. Real-name registration would make it too convenient for those wanting to capture her.

Therefore, after much thought, Su Xuan finally decided to take her to the hospital where Li Yuanyuan had previously stayed. This hospital was small-scale and rarely visited by the rich, making it hard for most people to guess that Song Shuangshuang would be hidden there.

Wherever she was arranged to stay, Shuangshuang had no objections. Su Xuan and Qiuyue guarded her overnight, not letting any strangers approach, but this wasn’t a solution. Su Xuan and Qiuyue still had to go to Mount Everest to look for Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus. Oh, how Su Xuan wished he knew the Clone Technique.

Su Xuan had underestimated Wang Fangqian’s power. It turned out that just as Su Xuan took Song Shuangshuang out, he allowed others to target her again. More accurately, she was targeted by roadside cameras.

Wang Fangqian utilized his connections with the traffic police team, closely monitoring every street intersection in Qiutian City. As soon as they spotted Song Shuangshuang, they immediately notified him.

As Su Xuan led Song Shuangshuang, they inevitably had to take the main roads, and just like that, Song Shuangshuang’s identity was exposed. Within just over ten minutes, a group sent by Wang Fangqian had secretly approached the small hospital.

Su Xuan and Qiuyue took turns on guard duty, alternating sleep in the adjacent hospital room.

Su Xuan was on duty now, feeling quite stifled. He stepped out onto the balcony to smoke a cigarette, and as he finished, he couldn’t find a trash can in the hallway. Instead of searching further, he simply tossed the nearly burnt-out cigarette butt downstairs.

As luck would have it, the cigarette butt landed right on the neck of one of those guys below, causing him to scream in pain. His screams immediately caught Su Xuan’s attention—Su Xuan, once a scout with exceptional eyesight, quickly sensed something was off. Watching the way that group moved—several of them having served as soldiers—the difference in their posture and gait was too distinct from ordinary people.

Su Xuan hurriedly woke Qiuyue, telling her they’d encountered an emergency. He glanced outside and saw a steady stream of buses pulling in, unloading men with crew cuts and sleeveless shirts, all carrying weapons. Both Su Xuan and Qiuyue could escape easily, but Song Shuangshuang, who knew no Kung Fu, would find it difficult to flee.

Suddenly, Su Xuan thought of Qin’s historical strategy of alliance and betrayal—letting allies slaughter each other, weakening themselves before swooping in to take advantage.

Knowing the group about to come upstairs was definitely not Master Long’s people, Su Xuan immediately called Liu Feilong, letting him know he had found Song Shuangshuang and urged him to send reinforcements.

Sending help during the night, Liu Feilong naturally wouldn’t come personally, just like the men Wang Fangqian sent wouldn’t see their boss there either.

On the phone, Su Xuan also told Liu Feilong to send more men, since he saw another group downstairs itching to act, apparently wanting to capture Song Shuangshuang early. Whoever caught Song Shuangshuang would get a one million bonus.

"Su Xuan, no matter what you do, you have to snatch Song Shuangshuang from them," Liu Feilong commanded.

On purpose, Su Xuan asked in the call, "What if they resort to force, it wouldn’t be good if someone got hurt."

"Ha, Su Xuan, just do it confidently. As long as you bring Song Shuangshuang back, even if something minor happens, it won’t be a problem—I’ll handle everything personally from my end," replied Liu Feilong.

"Alrighty."

With that, Su Xuan felt like he had received the Imperial Sword, prepared to really let loose tonight. Everything was ready, all he needed was for Liu Feilong’s men to arrive. Until then, Su Xuan had to find a way to hold off the group downstairs temporarily.

Su Xuan had initially thought of getting the hospital’s security to hold them off for a while, but upon seeing the menacing group entering, the guards just ran away, prompting Su Xuan to despise them utterly—albeit uselessly, as he now needed to take matters into his own hands to resist the intruders.

"Hey, guys, what are you doing here?"

Su Xuan went out to intervene.

"Who are you? If you know what’s good for you, stay out of this. Go somewhere cool to hang out. If you block our way, we won’t be polite!" they warned.

The men didn’t want to quarrel with unrelated people, since they were really just after money. They were Wang Fangqian’s sent men, who had promised them a million for capturing Song Shuangshuang. Thoughts of what they could do with that money at the bathhouse fueled their determination even more.

"You guys know Liu Feilong? He asked me to guard this spot, and no unauthorized personnel may enter," Su Xuan asserted.

Liu Feilong?

The group, also involved in Qiutian City’s underworld but operating in different districts and thus not generally crossing paths, had definitely heard of him.

"What about Liu Feilong? We have more people, step aside quickly. I’ll count to three, and if you don’t clear off, I’ll have to get physical," said the fat man among them, whom Su Xuan estimated he could knock down in one strike.

Su Xuan was very anxious inside, cursing silently: Where the hell is Liu Feilong’s crew?

Qiuyue was inside the sickroom, presumably preparing to move Song Shuangshuang. She should be almost done by now.

Suddenly, the sound of vans braking could be heard from below, and everyone looked through the hallway glass to see a crowd charging up, led by someone Su Xuan recognized—they were all Liu Feilong’s people.

"I’m here!" Su Xuan exclaimed, as thrilled as if he’d seen his long-lost son.

The man played his part exceedingly well, knowing Su Xuan was favored by Liu Feilong, and he shouted loudly, "Whoever dares mess with my Brother Xuan, try touching him today and see what happens!"

Instantly, Su Xuan was no longer alone in the fight, now matched against his opponents in a fierce struggle to capture Song Shuangshuang for a million-dollar reward; one side Liu Feilong’s men, the other Wang Fangqian’s.

"Anyone with sense should beat it. This place is under Master Long’s protection. Who do you think you are, daring to take people from us? If you don’t leave, we’ll break your legs!"

Su Xuan was pleased with his subordinate, who could hold his own in a verbal battle.freewebnøvel.coɱ
