Chapter 9 Leave Right Now

In a luxurious apartment in Manhattan, New York, Ye Long burst through the door. Zhou Ruobing was lying unconscious on the couch, her clothes intact. The tightly-wound string in his heart relaxed slightly. His eyes shifted, and there stood Song Zhong.

Ye Long's anger flared up instantly. "What are you doing here!" Song Zhong also stood up from beside the couch, fuming. "Security! Where the hell are the security guards!"

Right after his words, one of the security guards stumbled towards the door. Before he could even shout for help, he collapsed and passed out. Song Zhong's face paled. In the blink of an eye, Ye Long had taken down the two top-notch security guards he had hired at a high price. It seemed this guy was a martial artist.

Ye Long strode towards Song Zhong. Song Zhong backed away several steps and warned menacingly, "Kid, I'm the third young master of the Song family! If you dare to ruin my good deed, the Song family will never let you go!"

Ye Long walked to Zhou Ruobing's side and examined her carefully. After confirming that she was just knocked out, he finally relaxed completely. However, in Song Zhong's eyes, Ye Long's actions were a blatant disregard for him.

Song Zhong was furious. Like a rampaging bull, he charged forward, his fist whistling through the air, aiming straight at Ye Long's face. Ye Long was quick-witted. He grabbed Song Zhong's fist in an instant. Song Zhong felt as if his hand was clamped by a vice, unable to move at all.

"Crack!" A clear sound of bone breaking rang out.

"Ah…" Song Zhong's eyes bulged, and fear filled his pupils. Before he could even let out a full scream, Ye Long kicked him right in the groin. Song Zhong flew backward like a kite with a broken string, hitting the ground hard. He clutched his groin with both hands, wailing in agony.

Ye Long turned around and gently picked up Zhou Ruobing.

"You'd better kill me right now!" Song Zhong glared at Ye Long's back, growling through gritted teeth. "Otherwise, I'll make you pay a heavy price!"

Ye Long looked back, a mysterious smile curving his lips. "I'm waiting." With that, he walked out, carrying Zhou Ruobing.

Song Zhong slumped on the ground, his face full of disbelief. He couldn't figure out where Ye Long got the nerve. Did he really think that just because he knew some martial arts, he could challenge the Song family, which had a powerful influence in New York's business and underworld? He was simply overestimating himself!

In a high-end apartment in Queens, Ye Long carried the unconscious Zhou Ruobing into the master bedroom and gently placed her on the large bed. Just then, Zhou Ruobing shuddered violently. Her hands clamped down on Ye Long's arm like vice-grips, and she bit down hard.

"It's me, Ye Long, your husband!" Ye Long shouted.

Zhou Ruobing was like a wild, out-of-control beast, her eyes flashing with a crazy, murderous look. Ye Long endured the excruciating pain in his arm and dared not resist. After a while, Zhou Ruobing gradually regained her senses and let go.

On Ye Long's arm, two rows of clear bite marks oozed blood. Zhou Ruobing frantically checked her body. After a while, she looked at Ye Long nervously. Her hands grabbed his collar, and she asked anxiously, "What happened? Where did you find me?"

Seeing her emotional state, Ye Long didn't blame her for biting him. He explained patiently, "Don't worry. I arrived right after you were knocked out. He didn't have time to do anything to you."

Zhou Ruobing stared intently at Ye Long, her eyes full of suspicion. Ye Long shrugged helplessly. "Believe it or not, I'm telling the truth."

Ye Long returned to his room and found antiseptic and a bandage to treat his wound. Soon, Zhou Ruobing came to the door of Ye Long's room. "Did you save me?"

Ye Long was wrapping the bandage around his arm. "Who else?" he said without looking up.

Zhou Ruobing looked at him with a complex expression, still full of doubts. Song Zhong had two top-notch security guards by his side. How could Ye Long have rescued her so easily? Was he secretly monitoring her?

Noticing her stare, Ye Long said, "Can you help me tie the bandage?"

Zhou Ruobing then noticed that Ye Long's arm was bitten by her and it was indeed inconvenient for him to bandage. She stepped forward and skillfully tied the bandage for him with her slender hands.

Ye Long asked, "Why did you go to see Song Zhong?"

Thinking of what had happened, Zhou Ruobing's anger flared up again. She tightened the bandage suddenly.

"Ouch! Are you trying to kill me?" Ye Long yelped in pain. "Miss Zhou, I'm your savior. You bit me just now, and I didn't hold it against you. But what's this now?"

Zhou Ruobing stood up and said coldly, "If you hadn't beaten Song Zhong before, would I have gone to his place to apologize? If I hadn't gone, would this have happened? It's all your fault!"

Ye Long then realized that Zhou Ruobing had gone to Song Zhong because of him.

Suddenly, Zhou Ruobing thought of something. Her face turned pale. "Did you hurt Song Zhong when you saved me?"

Ye Long nodded. "He tried to assault you. How could I let him get away with it? I disabled him!"

Zhou Ruobing's mouth dropped open in shock. "You disabled him?"

Ye Long said calmly, "First, I broke one of his hands. Then, I made him infertile."

Zhou Ruobing trembled all over. She looked at Ye Long as if he were a monster. The Song family had great influence in New York, and Song Zhong was a key successor of the Song family. By doing this, not only would Song Zhong never let Ye Long go, but the entire Song family would come after him! Moreover, this matter would surely implicate her and the Zhou family!

Just then, Zhou Ruobing's phone rang. She took it out and saw that it was her mother calling.

"Mom!" Zhou Ruobing answered immediately and walked out of the room.

On the other end of the line, Liu Hongxia asked anxiously, "Bingbing, are you okay?"

Zhou Ruobing's heart tightened. Had the Song family already started taking action? She asked nervously, "Mom, what happened?"

Liu Hongxia let out a sigh of relief. "Bingbing, Wu Yunhong came to our company just now."

"What did he want?" Wu Yunhong was the chairman of Tianyun Group, the biggest competitor of Zhou's Group. Zhou Ruobing couldn't believe that he had suddenly showed up.

Liu Hongxia said, "He actually proposed to acquire Zhou's Group for ten million dollars!"

"Ten million dollars?" Zhou Ruobing was furious. Zhou's Group had once been a leading company in the New York business world. Even now, its market value was as high as ten billion dollars! And the Zhou family had been the richest family in New York ten years ago.

Liu Hongxia continued, "Bingbing, I had a huge argument with Wu Yunhong. Judging from his tone, he won't let us off easily. I'm worried he might do something to you, so I called you."

Wu Yunhong had started out by engaging in illegal and unethical business practices. Sending someone to harm others was nothing new to him. He was very likely to send someone after her.

Zhou Ruobing thought of the unresolved issue with Song Zhong. Now, this new problem with Wu Yunhong had emerged. Her head ached. "Mom, stay at the company. I'm coming over. I need to discuss something with you." If the matter of Song Zhong being disabled wasn't handled properly, it was like a ticking time-bomb, ready to explode at any moment!

"Okay, I'll wait for you." Liu Hongxia hung up after saying that.

Zhou Ruobing returned to the room and looked at Ye Long. She asked coldly, "Did you really disable Song Zhong?"

"Yes." Ye Long nodded without hesitation. He retorted, "He tried to assault you. Shouldn't he be disabled?"

Although Zhou Ruobing hated Song Zhong in her heart, she still said with a serious face, "Have you thought about the consequences? Song Zhong is the third young master of the Song family. The Song family has influence in both the legitimate and underworld circles in New York!"

The more Zhou Ruobing thought about it, the more scared she became. She said directly, "Take your mom and brother and leave New York right now. The farther, the better! Leave right now!" With that, she transferred a large sum of money to Ye Long via her phone.
