Chapter 55 - The Dragon Cavalry
When Ji Guangming brought Xu Yangyi to the gym, he noticed a major issue. His heart skipped a beat, and he quickly turned to Xu Yangyi, saying, “Sis, let's head to the shooting-range first!” But then he realized that the Dragon Riding Team members were there, so he swiftly changed his tone, adding, “Oh, no no! Let's go to the swimming pool instead! It's scorching outside, perfect for a refreshing swim.” With that, he hurriedly ushered Xu Yangyi towards the exit. However, at that moment, two imposing figures approached them. One was tall with well-built muscles, appearing like a threat to Xu Yangyi and the others.
On the other hand, the second man had a more average physique and a remarkably handsome face. Standing next to the muscular man, they formed an unusual contrast of ‘beauty and the beast.'
Ji Guangming was even more shocked upon seeing them. He quickly saluted and spoke loudly and clearly, “Hello, Captain Rosen.”
Despite the polite greetings, Ji Guangming wished he could sink into the wall and gestured to Xu Yangyi with his eyes, urging her to leave first.
However, Xu Yangyi paid no attention to Ji Guangming's signals and stated, “I just came here to work out a bit.” Ignoring the two men in front of her, she walked past them nonchalantly.
Just as Xu Yangyi was about to pass them, she suddenly found herself pinned down by a fat, burly hand. “Hey brat, who do you think you are, strutting around like this?”
One of the members of the Dragon Riding Team was nicknamed Tank, and the leader with striking looks was Rosen.
What was this Dragon Riding Team everyone talked about? Similar to the Flying Tiger Squad, the special forces operated under Colonel Hee Jingyan's direct command.
“Ah!?” Xu Yangyi turned around abruptly, fixing a fierce glare on Tank, and coldly exclaimed, leaving both Tank and Rosen startled.
Before they could compose themselves, Xu Yangyi had already distanced himself from Tank, giving them a disgusted look, and issued a warning, “Don't you dare touch me.”
Ugh, why did some people enjoy physical contact so much? It was revolting, especially with a bunch of reeking men.
Tank regained his composure and glanced at Xu Yangyi from head to toe, showing he didn't take a mere sprout like Xu Yangyi seriously. “What's wrong, kid? You want to fight?” With that, he grabbed Xu Yangyi's shirt, effortlessly lifting him up with one hand.
Tank had assumed that Xu Yangyi would be frightened, but instead, he wore a proud expression. He took pride in the fact that even his teammates were afraid of him. He believed he could easily overpower anyone, making it futile for others to call for help when he was around.
Rosen shared the same belief, so he figured since he already knew the outcome, he should go inside first. However, as he took a step forward, Xu Yangyi grabbed Tank's shirt and burst into maniacal laughter. “Alright! If you want to fight, let's fight.” His response was direct, without any hesitation.
The three of them present were taken aback. Ji Guangming quickly tried to dissuade them, “Sis!”
“Ji Guangming, hush,” Xu Yangyi interrupted, blocking Ji Guangming's attempt to stop him.
“I wish I could keep quiet too! But do you really think you can beat Tank? He's a member of the Dragon Riding Team and extremely skilled,” Ji Guangming reasoned. Could it be that his sister-in-law genuinely wanted to fight him? How could she possibly win? The size difference alone made the outcome obvious.
Despite Ji Guangming's doubts, Xu Yangyi remained nonchalant. “How would I know if I don't try?” There was no hint of backing down, and a hint of restlessness appeared on Xu Yangyi's face. Even Tank was slightly surprised by this reaction.
Was there something wrong with this kid's brain!
