Chapter 14

"You shouldn't burden yourself with things like this. I know that you want to prove yourself to your family, but what matters most is climbing your way up with less rocks in your sack." Peng Zedong told her sister in a comforting way.

It was clear to Peng Zedong that Yao Ling has always cared about her like her own sister, and she also realized since they were much younger that she was prone to wanting to lift the world up regardless of consequences.

"Thank you Peng Zedong, this is why we will be sisters forever, no matter how many times our families try to get in the way of it!" Yao Ling now with tears falling down her cheeks shouted before hugging her.

These two girls were indeed the same age, but it was very clear that Peng Zedong was the one who was the most mature and more motherly to Yao Ling. This type of dynamic was different compared to normal friendships, but this also allowed their bond to be that much closer.

"So Yao Ling, it looks like even our security is done eating and drinking their meals, so what would you like to do next? We could go shopping to more places, or we could even go sightseeing."

"I know quite a few managers down in several of the food processing plants and we could even visit some of the offices that my father owns. Unless you wanted to do something a little less invasive?" Peng Zedong asked Yao Ling, trying to gauge what she wanted to do now that they finished eating.

Truth be told, Peng Zedong waited for the very moment that Yao Ling seemed to be finished in order to try convincing her to leave back to the safer zone.

"Well, I heard from my grandfather that your father started building this big spa somewhere in the downtown area that has many expensive statues and also fairly private. Maybe if Peng Zedong wants to, we can start making out way over?" Yao Ling responded.

"The only problem is that I do not have my bathing suit with me, so we would need to go shopping to find one. Then again, Peng Zedong you don't have one on you either so let's hurry and go."

"What a wonderful idea, I am sure everyone here is ready to start heading out?" Peng Zedong told the group after the security guards realized that she gave them the signal to come back towards them.

"You are leaving already before we could even introduce ourselves? And here we wanted to bring you both along to have quite an entertaining time at our new pool hall." someone said before Peng Zedong and the rest could even see them in view.

Suddenly a large group of over twenty men started to surround Peng Zedong's group and Yao Ling went from being joyful to having a rather upsetting look on her face.

"Hey, look here you guys, we did not come here looking for trouble. If you would like, maybe our young miss can meet with you at a later time." the lead security guard said as the rest formed a defensive formation around the two girls.

"Peng Zedong, who are these men, and why are they being so forceful?" Yao Ling couldn't help but ask her as she felt a sense of danger arising.

"Do not worry about it, just stay close to me, okay?" Peng Zedong responded before patting Yao Ling on the head lightly as she tried scanning the landscape around her, looking for an escape path.

The only thing she could see, was that the twenty men were able to split up enough to make it so that they were in fact completely trapped within their encirclement.

"Hey you guys, do you even know who my sister here is? If I were you, I wouldn't be trying to cause us any trouble!" seeing the nervousness on even the security guard's faces, Yao Ling started to shout towards this large group of thugs.

"Oh? If she is that important, we would love to be able to properly take care of her." the thug who was clearly the leader of this group said while licking his lips in a very perverted fashion causing Yao Ling to remain frozen in place before continuing.

"My sister's name is Peng Zedong and if you treat us badly right now, her father will be very angry with you!" Yao Ling shouted out for even the civilians on the road to hear before everyone turned to look towards them.

"I see, so you are actually that close with that damnable Zheng Qigang? Too bad, here I just wanted to have fun with you girls, but now my boss will most likely want the first dibs." the leader of the group of men said as his face changed from excited to one full of anger and disappointment.
