Rebirth: Once Again With You

At the same time, a war had been going on in another place for some time.

People nearby felt threatened by how many scary-looking people were fighting against each other on the empty street outside. They dared not to even peek outside to find out what had happened.

Some called the police, but even after some time, no one came to calm the chaos.

A gang fight like this was common around the city side, where the law was pretty loose.

It was mainly because many small to big thug groups used the neighborhood as their base, and not even the police could calm down the situation without an armed force.

Normally, no people would like to live there except those who were financially weak to afford a place in the city or those from questionable backgrounds.

The building where Dai Bolin was kept was in a huge mess. People from Ye Wang surrounded the old building and prevented outsiders from coming close, lest they would become casualties.

At first, it appeared that Ye Wang's men got the upper hand, but the reinforcement from Huang Zhen's group soon came and turned this from a mere gang fight into an all-out war.

People were too scared to do anything and could only pray that this chaos would end soon.

Amid those many men fighting and sprawling across the ground, Lin Xiang was restless.

While supporting the unconscious Dai Bolin with one of his subordinates, he couldn't help but stop when he heard a painful groan behind him.

Turning around, he wondered whether Huang Zhen was really out of his mind. He hadn't seen him for a year, but his insanity seemed to worsen. How could a mental patient like him roam around freely in this country?

The man was currently sitting on top of Dai Zhiqiang, who was covered in blood and lying weakly on the floor.

The room was a mess with fragments of glass and broken furniture scattered everywhere, but Lin Xiang's eyes solely focused on Dai Zhiqiang, who looked like he was on the verge of passing out.

"Huang Zhen, don't push your luck!" He roared before tossing Dai Bolin to his subordinate. He was ready to interfere and let Huang Zhen taste his fist when Dai Zhiqiang shouted at him.

"Don't come here! Just take my father and leave!"

After he said that, he coughed up a mouthful of blood, further distressing Lin Xiang. "Hey kiddo, get a grip!"

Despite his young age, Dai Zhiqiang was one of their most excellent fighters. Hence, he was appointed as one of the training instructors for other men in Ye Wang.

However, Huang Zhen treated even the fierce Dai Zhiqiang like a baby.

It wasn't that Dai Zhiqiang was weaker, but their experience was far too different.

Lin Xiang saw something glint beside his leg and found the swiss knife that Dai Zhiqiang used to bring everywhere.

Dai Zhiqiang had been fighting Huang Zhen with bare hands, but he could barely buy Lin Xiang enough time to snatch Dai Bolin from Huang Zhen's men and make his way to the exit.

Huang Zhen raised his brows as if amused before laughing. "Ahaha, look at your face. You are gaping and closing your mouth like a goldfish. It's been a while since I saw you, but you haven't changed, Lin."

"Don't call me that!" Lin Xiang growled at him again. "And stop acting like we are buddies. You are just a traitor that needs to be eradicated."

"Hmm? I don't understand what you are talking about. How can I be a traitor when I have never truly become one of you in the first place?"

Lin Xiang clenched his fist and was about to pounce at him. But Dai Zhiqiang suddenly grabbed Huang Zhen by the collar with his remaining strength and flipped their position, so it was Huang Zhen's turn to eat dirt.

However, the younger man knew it was only a matter of time before Huang Zhen got the upper hand again.

Forcing back the nauseating taste of rusty iron in his mouth, he shouted at Lin Xiang again, "Why are you letting him provoke you? Just leave! The longer you stay here, the harder it will be to take my father out of here! He needs a doctor immediately!"

"Tsk." Lin Xiang clicked his tongue in annoyance. He hesitantly looked at Dai Zhiqiang before encircling Dai Bolin's arm around his shoulder again. "Don't die before I return to save your ass, kiddo!"

Dai Zhiqiang couldn't reply as he had to concentrate on holding Huang Zhen down. So far, he didn't display any strong resistance, as if he was enjoying this moment of chaos.

"Huang Zhen, even if you kill me here, dozens of Ye Wang's men will still be waiting for you outside. Just give up!"

"Sounds like a loser plea rather than a threat to me. Why are you in so much of a rush? Let's sit back and talk a bit, shall we? Fighting with you started to bore me."

Dai Zhiqiang didn't give a single damn about his thoughts and pushed his forearms under his chin. "Shut up. If you wish to die so badly, then you leave me with no choice."

"Haha, what a fiery youngster. It's really a shame that you refuse to be on my side. My plan is ruined now, so I'll give you kudos for your effort. But you do know that you won't win against me, right? I can end you here, and no one can stop me."

Dai Zhiqiang knew he was right. He was basically on Huang Zhen's mercy by letting Lin Xiang leave.

Even now, it took all his energy just to sit upright. He didn't have the power to stand up and run away from here.

The moment he stepped into this building, he knew he probably wouldn't get out of this unscathed. Yet he still entered anyway.

Huang Zhen laughed, seeing Dai Zhiqiang had no rebuttal. "Admit it. You are smart but reckless. You are the same as me on that note, so I'm interested in you. It's a shame someone like you is staying to become a spoiled kid's nanny. Joining me is much more fun."

"Sorry, but we are not the same. Unlike someone, I'm actually a pacifist that hates violence."

"Haha, I can't tell if you are joking with that expressionless face of yours."

"However, when someone dares to mess with those I care about, I don't mind abandoning my principles to get back at them."

"Now, that's more like it. I admit it; I didn't expect you to have connections with the Meng family. Well, not you, actually, but your girlfriend. Ye Wang won't agree to help her, so you used another person to do it in your stead. Don't you feel bitter that you can't come to rescue her yourself?"

"That's none of your business," Dai Zhiqiang said threateningly. He wanted nothing but to beat this person to a pulp, but his vision grew hazier as time passed.

Blood dripped from his old wound, which accidentally reopened when he took a hit from Huang Zhen. It was so painful like someone dug a knife into him and twisted it around.

If he kept losing blood like this, he could seriously die here.
