Chapter 169: No Leaving the Men’s Bathroom

Song Qingtian had recorded everything well; she slipped her phone into her sleeve from behind and then smiled, saying, “I don’t think it was you— I checked at the time, so it wasn’t you.”

“Hmph! Whether it was you or not, you almost got into trouble, didn’t you? You’ve made too many enemies; there are countless people who want you dead. Clearly, you shouldn’t be alive.”

A Xiu tried to move closer, but Song Qingtian kicked out with a swift kick. A Xiu dodged just in time, though she nearly got kicked as well.

After all, Song Qingtian’s kick came completely out of the blue.

In A Xiu’s eyes, Song Qingtian wasn’t just a spoiled brat—she was also a complete fool, good for nothing, let alone having any martial arts skills.

A Xiu stepped back, her expression darkening. “Who would’ve thought you’d actually have a few tricks up your sleeve?”

“You can even train two moves with such a big chest—why can’t I?”

Although Song Qingtian wasn’t skilled, she had indeed studied under professionals.

Back when she helped catch criminals, she’d learned plenty of self-defense techniques.

But when it came to dealing with A Xiu, Song Qingtian knew she was no match. Naturally, she resorted to verbal attacks, spewing venom until she was practically smoking with anger.

“Are you jealous or something?”

Sure enough, A Xiu took the bait and deliberately puffed out her proud bosom.

Song Qingtian taunted, “Even such a big-breasted woman like you isn’t liked by Qin Xiaotian—aren’t you still losing to me?”

“You…”

A Xiu’s sore spot had been hit, and she swung a punch at Song Qingtian. Seeing that she’d stirred up a huge mess, Song Qingtian turned and ran.

But there was a wall right beside her, so she couldn’t get away.

With A Xiu’s fist poised to deliver a knockout blow, Song Qingtian’s face turned pale. She should’ve known better than to stir up trouble.

Then—bang!—A Xiu was kicked flying.

Song Qingtian froze for a moment. She watched as A Xiu flew through the air and crashed into the bathroom.

Looking at A Xiu lying on the floor in agony, Song Qingtian finally breathed a sigh of relief.

She glanced over at Ling HanYu, feeling rather embarrassed. “Thanks to Mr. Ling.”

Ling HanYu’s expression remained cold as he walked off toward the opposite side.

A Xiu was Qin Aotian’s henchwoman—no ordinary person. To dare openly attack Song Qingtian like that meant this feud wouldn’t be easily settled.

But as soon as Ling HanYu took one step, Song Qingtian grabbed him.

“Evil people will always get their comeuppance—leave her alone.”

Song Qingtian had been prepared; she’d already recorded the whole incident.

Ling HanYu, pulled along, glanced back toward the men’s bathroom.

He followed Song Qingtian over to the women’s bathroom.

Song Qingtian worried that Ling HanYu might disregard his status and rush over to settle scores with A Xiu.

At the bathroom doorway, she said, “I’ve got my own way of handling her—no need to use a sledgehammer to crack a nut. Mr. Ling, just wait for me.”

With that, Song Qingtian headed into the women’s bathroom—and once inside, she sent the recording straight to Qin Xiaotian.

It had been a while since they’d last spoken, so Song Qingtian looked up Qin Xiaotian’s contact information and sent him a message first.

She didn’t dare call, afraid Ling HanYu might overhear.

Qin Xiaotian replied instantly and added Song Qingtian on WeChat.

Song Qingtian whispered, “It’s inconvenient for me to talk, so I’ll send you an audio file. I’ll also share my location—just handle it yourself.”

After she finished speaking, Qin Xiaotian sent a voice message: “How have you been lately?”

Song Qingtian didn’t reply—instead, she sent the recording.

Qin Aotian responded quickly: “I’m on my way right now.”

Only then did Song Qingtian quietly say, “Please don’t disturb my meal, thank you.”

With that, she blocked Qin Aotian’s messages—no matter what he said, she wouldn’t know.

Only then did she finally emerge from the bathroom.

Ling HanYu really hadn’t made a move; he’d simply waited where he was.

As for A Xiu, who’d caused quite a stir in the men’s bathroom, she hadn’t left either. Even though people were pointing fingers at her, she didn’t dare act rashly and stayed holed up in the men’s bathroom.

When Song Qingtian came out and saw A Xiu, she walked over.

“About today’s incident, I can choose not to tell Qin Xiaotian. You know how he feels about me—if I do, you’ll be in deep trouble.”

“You dare threaten me?”

A Xiu was indignant and glared at Song Qingtian.

Song Qingtian crossed her arms, looking smug and arrogant: “I’m threatening you—what can you possibly do to me?”

“You…”

A Xiu clenched her fists, ready to strike Song Qingtian—but seeing Ling HanYu standing behind her, watching intently, she bit her tongue and held back.

“I’ll give you a chance to live. If you can stay in the men’s bathroom for half an hour without coming out, I won’t tell Qin Xiaotian about this.”

“You think you…”

“You can try it out. I keep my word—though I’m not sure whether you’ll be lucky enough to handle this situation. You’ve spent more time with Qin Xiaotian than I have, so you probably know better than I do what he’ll do.”

Song Qingtian gave A Xiu a meaningful look. “I’m going to eat now—do whatever you want!”

With that, Song Qingtian turned and walked away.

A Xiu gripped her fists tightly—she didn’t dare come out.
