Chapter 68 Being followed
After leaving the bar, Xi Yu did not go home immediately. Instead, she waited on the route that Boss Qin would take home.
She had already told her mother in advance that she would be going to Fang Qianyou's house to study, so it was okay to come home a little later.
After waiting for about two hours, Mr. Qin's unsteady figure finally appeared at the intersection.
Having wasted so much time, and then running into Lu Hong and Yan San at the bar, Xi Yu was already seething with anger. When she saw Boss Qin appear, she decided to beat him up first, no matter what!
She dragged the man to a secluded corner before striking him, specifically targeting his face where he could be seen, until the man, Mr. Qin, was bruised and swollen, too weak to even cry for help.
After letting out a sigh of relief, she felt much better.
She pressed down on Boss Qin's head with one hand, squatted down, stared into his cloudy eyes, and instantly released her spiritual power to invade his brain.
“Listen… After this, you must confess to your wife all the scumbag things you’ve ever done, without missing a single one.”
Boss Qin's eyes gradually lost focus, and saliva slowly dripped from his gaping mouth.
Since saving Yan San last time, Xi Yu's mental strength has increased exponentially. To deceive someone like Boss Qin, whose willpower is not strong, a single mental suggestion is enough.
They had originally planned to make Boss Qin lose face in public at the bar, but they ran into Lu Hong instead!
Now that she had wasted her time, Xi Yu lost interest in dealing with him and simply gave him a hint, making it clear.
After Mr. Qin nodded in a daze, she took his wallet and all the cash, considering it as severance pay for Xi Hua!
Finally, Xi Yu silently mourned for him for a second, then raised her foot and kicked him hard between the legs!
A bloodcurdling scream suddenly rang out, so horrifying that even passersby in the distance were startled and rushed over in small groups to investigate.
When everyone gathered around, all they could see was Boss Qin, who was rolling on the ground clutching his private parts.

The next day, Xi Yu didn't see Yan San during training. She guessed that he was investigating the list on the memory card.
Besides thanking Yan San for his cover, another reason for handing the memory card to Yan San was for the sake of those who had gone missing.
With the military's resources available for the search, the chances of finding the missing are much higher. Hopefully, they are still alive.
After class, Xi Yu went to Dongxiu Street to visit her mother who worked at the flower shop.
The store is now decorated with many fresh flowers, making it look much more vibrant.
Although the shop didn't have any rare or expensive flowers, Xi Yu knew she had made the right choice by seeing Xi Hua's ever-present smile as she busied herself with the business.
From afar, you could see the madman carrying heavy flowerpots for Xi Hua, while the fat man looked bewildered as he tried to make bouquets. But after seeing the disastrous bouquets, Xi Yu couldn't help but shake her head.
Just as she was about to approach, she suddenly stopped, changed her attention, and turned to walk in another direction, heading towards the coast.
She entered the lighthouse and slowly climbed upwards.
We went all the way to the top floor, where we could clearly see the beautiful distant horizon from the observation windows.
She leaned against the windowsill with both hands, and without turning her head, said in a low voice, "Come out. Aren't you tired of following me for so long?"
Her voice echoed through the empty lighthouse.
After a long while, a man finally emerged from the corner of the spiral staircase.
The man had a wild face, a face that Xi Yu had seen before in the original owner's memories.
It was the face I caught a fleeting glimpse of in that back alley on the night the original owner was killed.
