ECG -Chapter 99 This Couple Is Like a Pair of Rabid Dogs

Just after Wu Xiaozhou threw away his cigarette butt, he saw several people lift the cotton curtain and rush outside, muttering something about how outrageous it was. He didn’t pay much attention and lifted the curtain to walk inside.

Cao Yitui and the others weren’t standing far from the west gate, so after Wu Xiaozhou entered, he immediately saw a crowd of people gathered in the distance. When he took a closer look, he instantly flew into a rage.

“Fuck your mother!” Wu Xiaozhou cursed loudly.

“Thump, thump, thump!” He pushed through the crowd and ran over. Then he raised his leg and kicked Cao Yitui hard in the lower back.

“Ah!” Cao Yitui cried out and fell face-first onto the ground. Because he was tightly pulling on Bai Zhitao’s sleeve, he dragged her down with him as well.

Wu Xiaozhou rushed forward and kicked Cao Yitui in the face again. Blood immediately started pouring from Cao Yitui’s nose.

Cao Yitui was already forty years old this year. Bullying a woman was one thing, but in a real fight, how could he possibly beat a young man full of youthful energy?

Wu Xiaozhou reached out and pulled Bai Zhitao up. Cao Yitui raised his head and saw Wu Xiaozhou, freezing for a moment. Just as he was about to speak, Wu Xiaozhou’s big foot came flying over again.

However, before Wu Xiaozhou’s kick could land, someone kicked him in the lower back. He was sent stumbling forward several steps before he managed to steady himself. When he turned around, he saw three burly men already charging toward him.

Wu Xiaozhou knew very well what kind of status Cao Yitui had in Chunhe’s underworld, but at this moment, he couldn’t care about any of that. This guy had actually dared to harass Bai Zhitao—killing him still wouldn’t be enough to vent his anger!

The four men immediately started fighting.

Bai Zhitao quickly took out her phone and dialed 110.

As the saying goes, two fists can’t fight four hands. At this moment, Cao Yitui also got up and joined the fight, occasionally kicking from the sidelines. Before long, Wu Xiaozhou was knocked to the ground. Blood was flowing from both his mouth and nose, and every time he struggled to get back up, he was beaten down again.

Bai Zhitao hung up the call and rushed into a lingerie store counter. She randomly grabbed a clothing rack pole and charged back out.

“Smack!”

The first hit landed on Cao Yitui’s back, making him grimace in pain.

Bai Zhitao shouted like she had gone crazy:

“Stop! Stop! All of you stop!”

Seeing that Wu Xiaozhou was still trying to get up, one of the three men—a guy with a red nose—kicked him hard in the chin.

Wu Xiaozhou didn’t even make a sound before falling back down. He rolled over, then suddenly grabbed the man’s calf and opened his mouth to bite.

“Ah! Fuck!”

Although the man was wearing both outer pants and fleece-lined pants, he still screamed in pain.

Wu Xiaozhou seemed to have gone insane. He bit down hard and refused to let go.

Bai Zhitao swung the clothing pole around.

“Smack! Smack! Smack!”

She kept hitting the three men, making them howl and curse. They tried to snatch the pole away but couldn’t get it from her.

At that moment, someone shouted:

“The police are here! The police are here!”

Cao Yitui had already been hit several times by Bai Zhitao. Hearing that the police had arrived, he quickly shouted:

“Get the hell out of here! This couple is a pair of rabid dogs! Damn it!”

After cursing, Cao Yitui even spat on the ground. The group turned and tried to run, but Wu Xiaozhou was still clinging to one man’s leg, refusing to let go with either his mouth or his hands.

One of the guys stepped forward and kicked Wu Xiaozhou several times in the back, trying to make him release him, but Wu Xiaozhou ignored everything and kept the same position.

With so many people watching, too many people recognized Cao Yitui. Since his men were being held back, he didn’t want to run away by himself. Besides, this kind of thing wasn’t a big deal anyway.

“Stop!”

Three police officers strode over.

Cao Yitui cursed inwardly.

Damn it! What a headache. How did I run into two people who just won’t let go?

The three officers clearly knew Cao Yitui, but they didn’t show him any special treatment. They shouted sternly:

“Separate! Separate! Everyone stand to one side. What happened? Who called the police?”

Bai Zhitao leaned on the clothing pole, breathing heavily.

“I—I called the police!”

“What happened?” asked a thirty-something police officer with a long face.

Bai Zhitao pointed at Cao Yitui.

“He… he harassed me, and he had these people beat up my boyfriend!”

The long-faced police officer understood as soon as he heard that. His heart was filled with disgust.

You, Cao Yitui, are someone with a reputation in Chunhe. Your business has been growing bigger and bigger these past few years. How come you still can’t change your nature and do such a despicable thing?

“Uncle Policeman, help! Save me! Hurry, hurry! Damn it, he’s going to bite me to death!” The man whose calf was being bitten hard by Wu Xiaozhou screamed at the top of his lungs. “Come quickly and make him let go!”

The other two police officers hurried over. One of them shouted at Wu Xiaozhou, “Hey, let go!”

Wu Xiaozhou had been beaten until he was dazed. At this moment, he only wanted to keep biting this person and not let him escape, so he ignored everything and couldn’t hear anyone’s words at all.

The long-faced police officer walked over and squatted down in front of him. In a gentle voice, he said, “Young man, we’re from Shuguang Police Station. Since we’re already here, just let go.”

Wu Xiaozhou ignored him completely, his teeth clamped down tightly.

The three police officers were also helpless. They couldn’t exactly use force against one of the people involved, right? Could they really pry open someone’s mouth?

Cao Yitui was also a little troubled. What a mess this had turned into. He looked at Bai Zhitao and said, “I say, little sister, why don’t you go and persuade him?”

Bai Zhitao couldn’t be bothered with him. She walked over, crouched down in front of Wu Xiaozhou, and tears immediately started falling. The clothes-picking rod in her hand slipped from her fingers with a clang.

She reached out and stroked Wu Xiaozhou’s head.

“Xiaowu, the police are here. It’s okay… it’s okay now!”

Wu Xiaozhou let out a long breath and slowly loosened his mouth. The guy immediately grabbed his leg and started howling.

Wu Xiaozhou’s mouth, nose, and entire face were covered in bright red blood. He grinned, his teeth stained red.

“Tao… Taozi, are you okay?”

Bai Zhitao didn’t care at all that his face was covered in blood. She grabbed his head and hugged him tightly, bursting into loud sobs.

The people watching around them also had red eyes, cursing these thugs and shameless bullies in their hearts.

Looking at Bai Zhitao crying, Cao Yitui’s eyes also turned red. He muttered, “So touching…”

Then, surprisingly, tears actually rolled down his face. He raised his head and let out a long, sorrowful sigh.

“At this very moment, I really want to recite a poem…”

“Recite your ass! Hurry up and leave!” The police officer behind him was already annoyed. He reached out and shoved him.

The long-faced police officer asked Wu Xiaozhou and Bai Zhitao, “Should we go to the hospital first?”

Wu Xiaozhou shook his head. Feeling that he was probably fine, he glanced at Bai Zhitao and softly said, “No, let’s go to the police station.”

A police officer came over and helped him stand up. Wu Xiaozhou staggered unsteadily, while the guy beside him who was still clutching his leg said with a miserable expression, “I need to go to the hospital!”

“Move!” The same police officer who had pushed Cao Yitui earlier angrily kicked him.

The Shuguang Police Station was right diagonally across from the west entrance of the shopping mall. Soon, the group arrived.

As they entered, Wu Xiaozhou turned his head toward Bai Zhitao and said, “Call Haozi.”

……

Lin Hao and Xia Yumeng arrived at Shuguang Police Station out of breath. But before they could even enter, they saw Bai Zhitao helping Wu Xiaozhou walk out.

Wu Xiaozhou’s face had already been washed clean, but it was swollen like a pig’s head.

“What happened? How did you come out so quickly?”

Lin Hao hurried over to support Wu Xiaozhou.

Bai Zhitao’s face was full of anger.

“They took our statements and then told us to leave. And those people left even earlier than us!”

Lin Hao was about to ask more, but Xia Yumeng said, “Let’s go. We’ll go to the hospital for a checkup first. It’s too cold outside. We’ll talk at the hospital.”

The city central hospital was very close. While Wu Xiaozhou was inside getting examined, Bai Zhitao gave a detailed account of what happened.

Lin Hao’s face turned livid with anger. After hearing Bai Zhitao’s description, he suddenly remembered.

This person had to be the same Boss Cao who had sent him a hundred flower baskets at the Black Knight Bar.

He paced back and forth, weighing in his mind how he should deal with this matter.
