Chapter 1964: You Were Lucky to Encounter Me

Then again, Zhang Chengtao found this unfathomable. Why would a dog want to attack them? Perhaps someone had sent the dog after them? However, why would someone want to attack them?

Was it because… Zhang Chengtao suddenly recalled what happened to Chen Darong. Had they found out who was behind Chen Darong’s kidnapping and sent the dog after them?

Despite his suspicions, he found it unfathomable for them to send a dog to do the job. At the same time, it was not entirely impossible since some dogs were capable of taking a lot of orders after receiving the right training from the time they were a puppy.

He felt it might have something to do with Chen Darong since he was the only person they offended recently. Also, there was one thing they had in common with Chen Darong. They had gotten injured on the back of their heads just like how they hurt Chen Darong when they abducted him.

What if Chen Darong’s backer was behind this? Zhang Chengtao felt worried by the potential trouble he was in. He regretted rashly abducting Chen Darong without finding out if he had a backer.

Even if this had anything to do with Chen Darong, Zhang Chengtao did not dare to seek revenge. After all, Zhang Chengtao was at fault for touching Chen Darong.

Zhang Chengtao’s chauffeur was waiting outside the hospital ward, so he did not hear the conversation between Harada Honichi and Zhang Chengtao. He was unaware Harada Honichi’s injuries were caused by a dog.

The chauffeur did not sense anything amiss about Zhang Chengtao’s dog attack and felt it was a pure accident.

Zhang Chengtao’s head injuries were as bad as Harada Honichi’s wounds. His only good fortune was that his face did not get scratched and he did not get stepped on.

Zhang Chengtao did not tell Harada Honichi about the dog attack for the time being since he had yet to decide whether he wanted to share it

He was worried that Harada Honichi would not take it lying down and would want to seek revenge on Chen Darong. Since he had known Harada Honichi for some time, he was keenly aware of Harada Honichi’s personality.

Harada Honichi was decent to his friends. However, he was absolutely ruthless towards his enemies. Even though he was the one responsible for abducting Chen Darong, he would never forgive Chen Darong for seeking revenge on him.

To put it bluntly, Harada Honichi was a selfish man.

…

By the time Gu Ning got back to school, it was already quite late and almost 11:00 pm. At this hour, there was barely anyone outside campus or walking around inside.

Gu Ning could suddenly smell the faint scent of blood in the air on the right side of the trees when she got into the school. Other than this scent of blood, she could hear someone gasping faintly.

Although the trees were near the roadside, they were rather dense. So despite the street lamps, the tree canopy completely blocked out the light making it pitch black inside the trees and impossible to see anything.

Gu Ning used her Jade Eyes to check out the trees. She was worried someone might have gotten hurt. If no one went to their aid, they might end up dying inside.

A badly injured man lay approximately ten meters from Gu Ning with a gunshot wound in his stomach. His hair was blonde and he did not possess Asian features, so he was definitely a foreigner. From the looks of it, he was around 30 years old.

Gu Ning had seen the man before, he was a foreign language teacher at Capital University, but Gu Ning could not remember his name.

Since he was shot by a gun, he either offended the wrong person or had a special identity. Regardless, Gu Ning could not leave him in the lurch.

Gu Ning came close to the trees and darted in after checking that no one was around.

Even though the man was barely breathing, he did not lose consciousness entirely, so he detected Gu Ning’s presence when she came near and became tense.

Since he was barely breathing, it was no use to be cautious as he was incapable of doing anything. If anyone wanted to take him out, he would be an easy kill.

Gu Ning walked up in front of the man and squatted down before retrieving a power crystal for him to take.

Although he was a foreigner, their country was on good terms with Country Y, so Gu Ning helped him as best as she could.

He was badly injured, so taking the power crystal did not help him regain complete consciousness right away. However, his condition improved vastly.

Gu Ning knew the man would probably refuse to go to the hospital for treatment, so she decided to remove the bullet herself. Since she had decided to help, she should finish the job!

Since the man was semiconscious and unable to open his eyes, Gu Ning did not try to hide before retrieving her surgical tools from her telepathic eye space.

“You can count yourself lucky for bumping into me,” muttered Gu Ning before operating on the man swiftly.

Although Gu Ning did not have any morphine, she injected him with power to numb him and to help with his recovery.

Gu Ning did not give him too many power crystals, because if she made him recover entirely, she would end up attracting unwanted attention.

After the man took the power crystal, he started to regain consciousness a little, so he could hear Gu Ning’s voice. After he learned she was trying to save him, the man’s body relaxed slightly.

Gu Ning worked quickly, and removed the bullet in less than a minute before bandaging his injuries.

Gu Ning did not linger and got up to leave.

Although the man was still very weak, he was out of danger. Also, he had taken a power crystal. Even if he did not recover immediately, he would recover soon enough.

It was already very kind of her to help. She did not owe it to him to sit around and wait for him to get well!

The man’s speed of recovery was unexpectedly fast. The moment Gu Ning got up and turned around, he opened his eyes and saw Gu Ning’s back.

Despite the darkness, the man had far better eyesight than normal, so he could see Gu Ning clearly. If he ever encountered her again, he would probably be able to spot her right away!

Shortly after Gu Ning went up to the fifth floor, the lights in the dormitory went off. Since Gu Ning was still not back by now, Song Miaoge and the others thought Gu Ning was staying out tonight! However, Gu Ning surprisingly arrived around one minute after lights out, shocking them.

“Gu Ning, I thought you weren’t going to come tonight!” said Song Miaoge.

“I was held up a little,” explained Gu Ning.

“Oh yes. I heard about your auction. Your bronze chimes were auctioned off for 8.5 billion dollars. Gu Ning, you are so good at making money! I can’t let you get away with it. You definitely have to buy us dinner tomorrow,” said Song Miaoge. She sounded envious, but not in a bad way.
