Chapter Fourteen: Ambushed

  Wang Xuewen also didn't know why, but from ten minutes ago, he had a feeling of unease, and even the important documents in front of him couldn't be bothered to look at.

  Just then, the private cell phone in his pocket suddenly rang. Looking at the caller ID on the screen, Wang Xuewen's furrowed brow suddenly relaxed and a smile appeared on his face.

  "Little brother, what made you think of calling your big brother today?" Wang Xuewen said with a relaxed tone into the phone.

  "Uh......! Sorry, the owner of this phone has been in a car accident and is currently being treated in the hospital!" He Dong said into the phone he found in the young man's pocket as he was being pushed into the operating room.

  "What? My brother was in a car accident? Which hospital?" Wang Xuewen suddenly shouted in shock.

  "At the First People's Hospital in the city!" He Dongfei quickly reported his current location, and as soon as he finished speaking, the phone was hung up.

  Twenty minutes later, Wang Xuewen had cursed this damn road and the traffic jam thousands of times on his way before he finally arrived at the hospital.

  What comforted him, however, was that his younger brother was not in danger of losing his life. Although he had to rest in bed for a period of time due to the fracture, this was already the best outcome, because he heard from the doctor that if he hadn't been sent to the hospital in time, excessive blood loss alone could have claimed his younger brother's life.

  It was at this moment that he suddenly remembered the person who had called him, his brother's lifesaver. However, the benefactor had already quietly left.

  He Dong did a good deed without expecting anything in return, so after hanging up the phone, He Dong felt that he didn't need to stay here anymore and left directly.

  Because of saving people, He Dong's body was covered with blood, making him look a bit disheveled. So when he returned to school, He Dong chose the less crowded small roads as much as possible.

  But what he didn't expect was that just as he was about to arrive at school, on a small path with very few people passing by, he was suddenly intercepted by five people.

  These five people were riding in a van that suddenly appeared in front of him, and as soon as they got out of the car, the five people didn't say much, and directly waved the iron bars in their hands to smash themselves.

  "Is this a divine wood situation?" The scene, like a movie shoot, suddenly stunned He Dong. Even until the five people were about to rush in front of him, he suddenly came to his senses, backing away while shouting "Misunderstanding! Misunderstanding!"

  "No mistake, it's you we're after!" The leader was a bald-headed man with an exceptionally sturdy build and a particularly vicious attack. The iron rod in his hand was directly aimed at He Dong's head.

  As soon as they met, the other party had already spoken so clearly that He Dong's face suddenly turned gloomy. And if it came to a fight, He Dong really wasn't afraid of anyone. Although the former He Dong was a sports idiot, he still had an unstoppable momentum that no one could match.

  Moreover, the current He Dong has undergone a drastic change from before. With a casual turn of his feet, he dodged the iron rod swung by his opponent and simultaneously kicked out at him with his raised foot.

  He Dong's kick was extremely sudden and fast, and the leading bald head didn't expect He Dong to dare counterattack in front of them. As a result, he was directly kicked in the stomach by He Dong, and a severe pain came instantly, causing the bald head to hug his stomach and let out a miserable cry.

  The sudden change left the other four people stunned, but these four people were also experienced in fighting, so they quickly showed a fierce expression, holding the iron rods in their hands and smashing them at He Dong again.

  "Giant Claw Mouse Unite!" Facing the attack, He Dong calmly shouted in his heart, then flashed his feet and dodged three people's attacks, grabbing a thug's iron rod in his hand.

  The effect of merging with the giant claw mouse is that when He Dong grasped the iron rod in his hand, he exerted force with both hands and the thick iron rod suddenly broke like a straw.

  He Dong's kick that knocked the bald man unconscious did not intimidate the four thugs, as they thought He Dong had only succeeded because of a sneak attack. However, when he snapped the iron rod in two, it directly instilled fear in them. The four men looked at He Dong's hand and their legs went soft with fear. If he could snap an iron rod in two, if he were to grab onto one of them, it would be hard to say whether they could even keep their bones intact.

  At this time, the thugs all started to regret it. They originally thought that teaching a lesson to a college student was absolutely a trivial matter for them, and they had done such things many times before. But now they knew they had kicked an iron plate, and it was even made of alloy steel.

  However, the rich experience of a veteran gangster is that after He Dong showed this move, the four gangsters turned around in unison, dragged away the bald head who was still screaming, and even abandoned the van they came in, just running away desperately.

  At the speed of He Dong, if he were to chase after them, it would be very easy. However, he wasn't some street punk who liked to show off and fight, so he didn't give chase. Instead, he just smiled disdainfully in the direction that the thugs had fled, thinking to himself: Who could hate him so much that they would actually hire street thugs to deal with him?

  He Dong sorted out his thoughts, but in the end, he couldn't find any clues and had to shake his head and give up thinking. Just then, a "creak! creak!" sound caught his attention.

  He followed the sound and immediately saw that his pet Jīnzǐ had run out at some point and was lying on the broken iron rod he had just snapped, gnawing at it with big mouthfuls, looking like it was savoring a delicious dish.

  The first time He Dong saw Jinzi eating, he felt extremely curious. The hard iron rod in Jinzi's mouth was like a person eating a cucumber. A 20-centimeter-long iron rod was eaten by Jinzi in no time.

  "With such a small body, it can actually hold such a long iron rod. This world is really wonderful!" Holding the still somewhat unfinished golden statue, He Dong couldn't help but sigh in admiration.

  "Meow! Meow!" Jinzi wiped his mouth with his front paws like a little cat washing its face, then shouted at He Dong.

  "What? You're not full yet? Good grief, you can eat so much, what am I supposed to use to raise you? That's metal, not cabbage! Besides, my own living expenses aren't even enough for me every month!" He Dong's eyes were wide with wonder.

  "Squeak! Squeak!" Jinzi was made to feel a bit embarrassed by He Dong, and his small eyes darted back and forth, but just at that moment, Jinzi suddenly became excited and pointed in one direction, calling out to He Dong.

  "What? You're going to eat that? Although it's also metal, but...!" He Dong was shocked again by Jinzi's words, because what Jinzi pointed at was the van driven by those five thugs earlier.
