Yu Qingtong shook her head, lowered her eyes and smiled faintly: "No, I resigned voluntarily... This incident was just the fuse. I had long wanted to stop working at her company, and I was lucky to be able to resign smoothly."
She went to complete her resignation procedures yesterday, and the company didn't make things difficult for her, which was probably Mei Xiaofei's final act of kindness.
"I'm sorry, it's all because of us that you lost your job... How will you earn money to support Mom and your brother in the future?"
Schimerling felt particularly guilty, especially since her family needed her to earn money to go back home.
Yu Qingtong continued walking forward, sighing softly, "I can find a job slowly. I've saved some money over the years, so I can manage for now."
"Besides, I wasn't happy working for Mei Xiaofei either, and I was always on edge. In a way, she and Mei Qiteng are my enemies. Shouldn't I be happy to leave my enemies behind?"
Xi Molin knew she was comforting herself. If it weren't for this incident, although she would be unhappy following Mei Xiaofei, she could at least earn much more money than outside.
Having an older brother in a vegetative state and a sick mother is something most people couldn't handle.
I'm so sorry...
"Alright, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's find some good food to try. It's been so long since I've been able to wander around outside so freely."
As Yu Qingtong spoke, she quickened her pace toward the food street.
Schimerlin followed behind her, still in a bad mood.
In the end, the two found a dry pot restaurant and ordered dry pot beef.
After finding a seat, Yu Qingtong washed the dishes and said calmly, "I'll accompany you to Guanshan Club at ten o'clock."
Schimerlin asked in surprise, "How...did you know?"
“I know Ning Chao’s younger brother, Ning Ran, and he told me about it.”
"What kind of people are they exactly?"
Schimerling asked the question that had been buried in his heart for a long time.
Yu Qingtong lowered her voice and said solemnly, "From what I understand, these rich young men all have strong capital backing them. The Mei siblings' parents are in the logistics business, with businesses all over the country and even overseas, and their assets are countless. The Ning family is mainly known for real estate, and then there's the Chang Ming family, whose family has a military background, and most people don't dare to mess with them."
"There's a lot more. Their younger generation is involved in the entertainment industry. After all, the entertainment industry is lucrative, and they can frequently hire young female stars. But this group has a peculiar hobby: they often seek out fights, like what you experienced last time. Even my brother, someone provides the money and resources for these deals, all for the sake of gambling and the thrill. These fights often determine a person's life or death... And they also highly value your abilities. There are too few women, and they think that a fight between a man and a woman is much more exciting to watch than a fight between two men..."
After listening to her explain the intricacies in detail, Xi Molin gained a general understanding of the matter.
Her sister was just a reason for her to participate; whether she became famous or not was irrelevant to them. Their main goal was to make a lot of money in their circle.
"I see…"
"Are you scared?"
Yu Qingtong asked her softly.
"I'm not afraid. If I can get what I want, then it's worth it."
Schimerling's gaze was resolute; she had long been mentally prepared.
"Yeah, it would be even more fun if we could beat them up."
Yu Qingtong raised her eyebrows slightly, her smile deepening.
The dry-pot beef was served quickly, and the two decided to eat more so they would have the energy to fight to the death with those arrogant people that night.
"Sister Yu, it shouldn't be death, right..."
Schimerlin asked her in a low voice.
"It's not that bad, and you should be able to handle it."
"That's good."
Yu Qingtong wore a faint smile on her face, but in her heart she was very worried about her. Those people would not show any mercy; only profit could tempt them.
That's why she wanted to go along; in a crucial moment, she could ask Ning Ran for help.
After the two finished their meal, it was almost nine o'clock, and the only way to get to Guanshan Clubhouse from here was by taxi.
Sitting in the car, Xi Molin recalled that she had also gone to the mountain villa with Yu Qingtong last time. This time, the two of them were traveling together again, and she felt inexplicably at ease.
Upon arriving at Guanshan Clubhouse, it remained as tranquil as ever.
The timing was perfect.
The person who picked them up was the young and beautiful Ning Ran. The club was already full of luxury cars, so there must have been quite a few people there tonight.
Ning Ran was particularly enthusiastic towards Yu Qingtong, and Xi Molin could see through his intentions.
Yu Qingtong responded to his every word with a pleasant expression, after all, it wasn't good to offend him now.
The Guanshan Clubhouse consists of three separate buildings, each with a different purpose. Security is tight, with cameras everywhere.
The three of them walked along the streetlights toward the innermost building.
Walking through the gate guarded by two bodyguards, you'll find yourself in a professional fighting arena.
Schimerling thought it would be a free-for-all like before.
Not only is there a fighting ring in the center, but there are also different sections of audience seating around it, where many unfamiliar people are already sitting.
Apart from the Mei siblings, there were almost no other people I knew, and Chang Ming, my opponent from last time, wasn't there either.
Ning Ran asked a female employee to take Xi Molin to the changing room to change into professional attire.
As she passed the fighting ring, her appearance attracted the attention of many people.
Yu Qingtong knew quite a few people, and she also saw Mei Xiaofei talking to someone.
After their unpleasant encounter, she resolutely decided to resign and leave. She hadn't seen her since. When she saw her this time, she was a little nervous but had no other emotions.
Mei Xiaofei's attention was unconsciously drawn to her, and she quietly stared at her from the shadows, no longer paying attention to what the others were saying.
Yu Qingtong followed Merlin into the changing room and explained the general rules to her, telling her to be careful not to cheat, as the rules were set by them and she could easily be taken advantage of.
Merlin kept her words in mind. After changing into his red and black-trimmed fighting uniform and choosing a pair of boxing gloves that suited him, he followed the female employee out of the locker room and headed to the fighting arena.
The person standing on the fighting stage at this moment was none other than Ning Chao himself.
He was wearing a blue and white fighting uniform and was warming up.
"Merlin, do you want to reconsider? Ning Chao is not someone to be trifled with; I'm afraid you won't be able to handle him."
Yu Qingtong sensed something was wrong and tried to persuade her to give up.
"It's okay, I can handle it, don't worry."
Now that she's here, she's bound to want an outcome.
After comforting her, Schimerlin took the mouthguard handed to him by the female employee, twisted his neck, and then bent down to step onto the fighting ring.
The referee, who was half a head shorter than Ning Chao, explained the rules and had the two touch their boxing gloves as a sign of respect.
"Little girl, I'll allow you to fight freely tonight."
Ning Chao's voice was calm, and his eyes were indifferent, as if he had a clear understanding of the battle situation.
Schimerlin simply said, "If I win, please keep your promise."
Ning Chao frowned: "Of course, but if you lose, you will have to obey my arrangements unconditionally from now on."
"it is good…"
When the referee blows the whistle and stands aside, the game officially begins.
