Chapter 7: Superpower People Hit Someone

Gu Xia took a taxi and frantically rushed back to her neighborhood, only to find the dilapidated six-story building reduced to two floors.

Around the building were five or six trench diggers and bulldozers, manned by around thirty-four people.

On this side, the neighborhood residents had gathered about fifty or sixty people, but despite their numbers, they dared not charge forward.

After all, no one wanted to die. Without a second thought, Gu Xia charged forward and spread her arms to block the trench digger.

The driver, upon seeing someone, abruptly stopped.

"Who authorized you to demolish in the middle of the night, huh? You think you're above the law?" Gu Xia roared.

At that moment, Du Anqi emerged from the crowd, donned in a black form-fitting mermaid skirt and a white off-shoulder chiffon blouse.

Despite the uneven terrain, she still wore high heels, her face exuding arrogance as if fearful others wouldn't recognize her as a Du Family heiress. Earlier in the day, Du Yingqi had come with his group and, during a confrontation, pushed Mr. Gu to the ground, causing him to be hospitalized with injuries.

Little did they expect that before the issue could be resolved, this group couldn't restrain themselves and staged another demolition during the late hours.

The actions of the Du Family were utterly contemptible... Gu Xia suppressed her anger, barely restraining herself from pouncing and tearing that hypocritical face apart.

"Gu Xia, let me tell you, we have documentation; this area now belongs to the Du Family. We'll demolish as we please, and it's none of your business. The compensation will be transferred to your account tomorrow, so beat it... or else, you'll regret it."

Gu Xia glared at the woman across from her and spat out, "Du Anqi, take your people and get lost... If you dare touch my house again, I'll kill you first."

"Heh, I don't believe you superpower-people dare harm ordinary citizens..." Du Anqi retorted with a sneer.

"Don't even call yourself an ordinary citizen; you insult the word."

"Don't listen to her, everyone, keep working. These five old buildings must be entirely demolished before dawn."

Du Anqi turned to command the workers, but Gu Xia suddenly lunged forward.

With one kick, she sent Du Anqi flying in a dog-eating-dirt posture, crashing to the ground.

Gu Xia was skilled in Kung Fu, hence the kick was powerful.

Everyone watched as Du Anqi was flung into the air... then heavily hit the ground followed by a scream.

"The Guard Team is assaulting people, the Guard Team is assaulting people."

"Keep screaming, drama queen... I'm off duty and not a Guard Team member right now. Plus, I hit a real bitch," Gu Xia clenched her fist.

"Xiao Xia, good hit, Xiao Xia, well done." The neighbors applauded and cheered, thoroughly pleased.

Some even took out their phones to record a short video and began to wildly share it on social media.

Because of the assault, Gu Xia was taken to the Guard Team, and Du Anqi, now injured, was hospitalized.

The people brought by the Du Family also retreated, and though the forced demolition was halted, the building was already heavily damaged, leaving Gu Xia effectively homeless.

In Water City, residing in a private villa halfway up the mountain, replete with both land and water,

Yu Xiuli emerged from the swimming pool, revealing enticing abs, then casually draped a towel over his midsection.

Lying on a lounge chair, he scrolled through his phone and, finding the short video interesting, tapped to watch.

After meticulously viewing it three times, he smirked and hummed, "A bit hot-headed, but the footwork isn't bad."

Half an hour later, at the Super Guard Team entrance

"Xiao Gu, Group Leader Lu called me. Your statement is taken, and you're cleared to go home. Just remember not to be so impulsive in the future. Not just because you're among the superpower people, but even ordinary people shouldn't strike first. Try not to be so rash next time," a deputy leader of the nearby Super Guard Team, an old acquaintance of Gu Xia's, especially after knowing her relation with Lu You, gave her enough respect. Striking the Du Family heiress yet walking away unscathed was indeed impressive.

Gu Xia nodded her head and just as she was stepping out, her phone buzzed – an incoming call displaying two words: Lu You.

Seeing his name, Gu Xia's emotions became complicated once again...
