142 Sudden Attack

At the street food stall.

After Tang Long left, the girls at the table almost exploded with excitement.

“Feifei, your boss is way too handsome!”

“He’s so generous to you, just giving you a car and a house like that!”

“Ten thousand a month, over a million a year, plus bonuses and year-end awards... Feifei, don’t forget us when you get rich!”

The girls chattered excitedly, but Zhang Ya remained silent.

Zhang Ya’s heart ached deeply.

She wasn’t a bad person; she genuinely felt happy for Luo Feifei, yet beneath that happiness lay bitterness and jealousy.

Once upon a time, she had been the most enviable girl in the dormitory. Now, she had been completely eclipsed by Luo Feifei.

Human nature is inherently contradictory.

You want someone to do well, but not too well...

Watching her roommates shower Luo Feifei with congratulations, Zhang Ya’s heart sank unbearably. Her eyes welled up with tears. She should have been the center of attention—how did it become Luo Feifei instead?

Gritting her teeth, Zhang Ya stood up and left.

“Zhang Ya, where are you going?” Luo Feifei had already sensed something was wrong and immediately reached out to grab her arm.

“Don’t bother with me! You’re already a vice president, why are you still paying attention to me!” Zhang Ya jerked her arm free and walked away.

“Zhang Ya! Zhang Ya!” Luo Feifei called out twice, stood up, and chased after her, grabbing her arm again.

“What’s your problem!” Luo Feifei finally lost her temper. As a vice president, she was strict and decisive at work, feared by many employees, but she never showed that side in front of her roommates. Now, seeing Zhang Ya act irrationally, she couldn’t help but shout, “Can’t you stand seeing me do well?! When I’m successful, it doesn’t mean I’ll leave you behind! We have such a deep bond—do you have to be like this?!”

These words stunned Zhang Ya into silence. She stood frozen, not daring to utter a word, tears falling like raindrops.

Seeing Zhang Ya cry, Luo Feifei’s heart softened. She quickly took out a tissue to wipe her tears.

“Alright, alright, it’s my fault. I shouldn’t have yelled at you...”

The more Luo Feifei spoke, the louder Zhang Ya cried.

“Feifei, I’m sorry, it’s my fault. I shouldn’t be jealous of you... sob sob...” Zhang Ya threw herself into Luo Feifei’s arms. “You promised—when you make it big, don’t forget to help me out...”

Luo Feifei was both amused and helpless as she stroked Zhang Ya’s head. “I know, sisters stick together through thick and thin. Wherever I have a bite, you’ll have a bite too.”

“And you have to introduce me to some rich and handsome guys...” Zhang Ya’s face was blotchy from crying.

“All right, all right, I’ll introduce you to some rich, handsome guys...” Luo Feifei shook her head with a wry smile.

The other girls gathered around, laughing and joking.

“Feifei, now you can treat us to a big meal, right?”

“After the feast, we’re going to a bar!”

“A night of drinking until we drop!”

“Okay, no leaving until we’re drunk!” Luo Feifei embraced the girls with radiant enthusiasm. “Let’s go, we’re changing venues!”

After settling the bill, Luo Feifei led the group out, chatting and laughing.

Watching their youthful exuberance, Lin Qi, seated in the corner, couldn’t help but smile with satisfaction.

He knew his identity was complicated, and with the deep blood feud he carried, the odds were slim that he and Luo Feifei would be together. But seeing her so happy, he felt genuine joy.

What a wonderful feeling!

This scene did not escape the watchful eyes of Chai Wuyan.

Fond of that little girl, huh?

Too bad, tonight you’re going to meet the Grim Reaper. If you want to chase girls, you’ll have to wait until your next life.

A sinister smile curled at the corner of Chai Wuyan’s mouth.

Luo Feifei and the others had just reached the entrance.

Suddenly, outside came the rapid sound of footsteps. A group of people dressed in black clothes and pants, faces covered with black cloth, burst in. Each one brandished gleaming machetes!

As soon as they appeared, screams erupted from the street.

Without hesitation, they headed straight for the street food stall where Lin Qi and Chai Wuyan were.

They’ve finally come!

Seeing the group, Chai Wuyan felt a secret thrill—he was finally going to witness Lin Qi’s demise.

But the act had to be complete.

“President Lin, what’s going on...” Chai Wuyan looked up to the other side, only to find it completely empty.

Lin Qi was gone!

What was going on?

Before Chai Wuyan could react, the group of black-clad men charged into the stall, colliding with Luo Feifei and the others who had just reached the door.

They raised their blades and slashed toward Luo Feifei and the rest.

This was Wang Fugui’s scheme. To cover up his true intent to kill, he ordered his men to disguise the attack as random acts of social revenge, indiscriminately assaulting the street stall where Lin Qi was.

They cut down anyone they found, regardless of gender.

This way, the police would be confused during their investigation, unable to determine the motive, making it impossible to trace back to Wang Fugui.

Of course, the ultimate target was still Lin Qi.

Others could be injured, but Lin Qi had to die.

Now, Luo Feifei and her group were the first to be targeted!
