Chapter 873 - 872: Rooftop Deathmatch (Part 1)

Hearing Chu Ge say this, Qin Ruojing forced a smile, "Fine, I'll trust you this once. If you go missing on me again, you'll see how I deal with you later.""Don't worry, it definitely won't happen. Last time was a special case. Nowhere is better than home, right?"

"Alright, go if you must. I won't ask any more questions, and you don't need to comfort me. Just coming back earlier is better than anything else."

Chu Ge shook his head, "I'll contact some friends first to have someone come to our place. I won't feel at ease leaving just the two of you at home."

Even though Jin Haohun's tone on the phone was quite straightforward, Chu Ge couldn't entirely believe what he said.

If by any chance it's a trick of Jin Haohun to lure the tiger from the mountain, and he attacks the Qin sisters when he's not home, that would be disastrous. With an enemy, even the punctuation marks are worth suspecting.

Hearing that Chu Ge wanted to have someone over, Qin Ruojing felt a bit uneasy, "Is that necessary?"

"Yeah, it's necessary."

"A man or a woman?"

"Uh… a woman, you know her, it's that Mu Lingshan."

Qin Ruojing rubbed her temples, "Why do I feel… like you have other intentions? Are you trying to get me and Ying to bond with Mu Lingshan? So when you come back and see us as close as sisters, you'll be happy?"

Chu Ge broke into a sweat. What kind of thinking is that?

Actually, you can't blame Qin Ruojing for overthinking. Having Mu Lingshan over also felt a little strange to Chu Ge himself, but for the safety of Qin Ruojing and Qin Ruoying, he couldn't care less.

That said, if Qin Ruojing's speculation comes true and they become good friends with Mu Lingshan, it would indeed be a lovely thing...

Thinking this in his heart, Chu Ge outwardly appeared speechless, "You're overthinking it. I didn't mean that, plus I'm not just asking Mu Lingshan; I also plan to bring in my sworn brother, Song Baijia."

Qin Ruojing was even more surprised, "What? You're going to have a big guy stay late with three women, all of whom have a relationship with you, and you're okay with it?"

Chu Ge laughed, "I might not trust someone else, but Brother Song, I can absolutely trust."

"Are you sure?"

"I'm a hundred percent sure."

Seeing Chu Ge's firm stance, Qin Ruojing said no more, though she still felt uneasy inside. Nevertheless, she could only let Chu Ge make the two phone calls.

Both Mu Lingshan and Song Baijia agreed without any hesitation after receiving Chu Ge's call.

When calling Mu Lingshan, Chu Ge especially instructed her to bring a gun. Mu Lingshan wanted to ask more about the situation, but he didn't explain further.

After making the calls, Chu Ge felt much more secure. To prevent Mu Lingshan from secretly tracking him and getting involved in his matters with Jin Haohun, he left the house and waited discreetly in a secluded spot downstairs. Once he saw Mu Lingshan's silhouette in the distance, he left Huafu Garden District.

It was a little past seven in the evening, quite early from midnight. Chu Ge first went to a night market, bought two daggers and fastened them to his waist, then took a cab to the building where Zhiling Headhunting Company was located. Although it wasn't his first time there, he meticulously observed the terrain again.

As time went by, nearing eleven, Chu Ge looked around to ensure no one was watching, then climbed the building's exterior ladder up to the rooftop.

The rooftop was vast and had a great view. Chu Ge took a look around and patiently waited.

At eleven fifty, Chu Ge faintly heard the sound of rubber soles on the ladder. He stood up and focused on the direction of the sound.

If Jin Haohun had a gun, he would not hesitate to throw a dagger first, preempting.

After seven or eight seconds, a man's silhouette appeared in Chu Ge's vision. The black headscarf had turned into a brown cap, his face still covered by a mask, and he was wearing a loose black jacket. His eyes shone colder than the last meeting.

The wind on the rooftop was strong, rustling the clothes of both Chu Ge and Jin Haohun and blowing their hair across their foreheads.

Chu Ge slightly curled his lips, taking the initiative to break the silence, "Jin Haohun, it's you again."

Jin Haohun looked at Chu Ge coldly, took off his cap and mask, and tossed them aside, "Yes, it's me again, but this is the last time. Do you have any last words?"

Jin Haohun's face was much like his son Jin Yingji's—chiseled and definitely a handsome middle-aged man.

"No last words, but a few questions, not sure if you're willing to answer."

"If so, save it until your last breath. I think by then, I might be willing to tell you."

After saying this, Jin Haohun stepped toward Chu Ge, each step quicker than the last, closing the distance between them.

Chu Ge stretched lazily, "And you? Do you have any last words that I need to deliver to your son?"

"There's no need for that." Jin Haohun smiled coldly, "Because, dead men don't speak."

Chu Ge shrugged, "Exactly, once you're dead you can't speak, which is why you need me to deliver your last words to your son."

"Ha! The one who's going to die is you!"

"Then come and try it."

At this moment, there was less than five meters between them, and Jin Haohun's speed was like a 100-meter sprint.

He charged forward another step, and as his foot hit the ground heavily, he suddenly leaped high, rotating 360 degrees in mid-air with his waist and hips as the axis, his right leg generating a gust like a swinging axe, striking directly toward Chu Ge's head.

Chu Ge sneered, whether it was Li Zheming, Park Sungjin, or now Jin Haohun, why do they all like to use this move right from the start? Doesn't Jin Haohun know the fate of Li Zheming and Park Sungjin when they used this move?

Since that's the case... then come down for me!

Just as Chu Ge was about to reach out, his eyes suddenly sharpened, swiftly bending at the waist and tilting his head, sidestepping to dodge the kick.

"Boom"

Jin Haohun landed back on the ground with both feet, knees slightly bent, his left foot firmly maintaining his balance, and without any pause, he spun with his waist and hips, straightened his right leg, and swept it in a nearly 180-degree arc toward Chu Ge's chest.

As Jin Haohun's foot swept over, the air instantly filled with a "swish" sound, as if the air itself was being sliced apart.

Facing the aggressive, guillotine-like kick, Chu Ge leaned back, pushing off the ground with the ball of his right foot, quickly retreating.

Jin Haohun seized the advantage, a cold glint flashing in his eyes, and instantly spun on the ground with his left foot, advancing one step, his straightened right leg whirled around, continuing its pursuit toward Chu Ge's chest.

Chu Ge retreated once more, Jin Haohun's body whirled again, the relentless whoosh of air as he pressed forward continuously forcing Chu Ge toward the rooftop's edge.

Jin Haohun's legs were very long, and his movements were quick. If you were to slow his movements down a bit, they would certainly be as beautiful as a figure skater; a little slower again, and they would be as elegant as a ballet dancer.

But in reality, he was more like a human top, a killing machine, and every sweep of his right foot carried with it the determination and power to kill.

Chu Ge kept retreating, getting closer and closer to the edge of the rooftop, while Jin Haohun's attacks became more and more fierce. His speed was so fast that the air seemed to blur with indistinct shadows, the wind generated by his right leg merged into one continuous roar, like the grim reaper laughing in a low voice.

Finally, Chu Ge was only one step away from the edge of the rooftop behind him, and without a doubt, if he retreated just a few more centimeters, he would plummet from the top of this thirteen-story building.

Yet at this very moment, Chu Ge seemed completely unaware.

Jin Haohun's mouth turned upward slightly, as if he could already hear Chu Ge's panicked and helpless scream, marking the final note of his life, and see Chu Ge plummeting to his death, leaving behind the last image of his existence in this world!

Just a bit more effort, it only takes one more kick!

Swish!

Another almost imperceptible flash of dark light appeared in the night sky, this kick from Jin Haohun was sure to succeed!

At that moment, Chu Ge's body suddenly fell to the ground, with nearly half his body suspended over the edge of the rooftop!

"Die!"

Jin Haohun shouted violently, but Chu Ge finally made a move other than evading backward.

His left palm pressed on the ground at the edge of the rooftop, and when Jin Haohun's right leg was horizontal to his own, his right leg suddenly kicked upwards like a sharp spike, aiming directly at the base of Jin Haohun's right leg.

Did Chu Ge not know that the edge of the rooftop was behind him when Jin Haohun was pressing forward step by step?

The answer, of course, was no.

The reason he kept retreating was to wait for Jin Haohun to tire and reveal a flaw. Since Jin Haohun's movements were consistently seamless, he created an opportunity for himself by luring the enemy in deeply, then switching from defense to offense at the last moment.

Chu Ge's kick was swift as lightning, without any warning. The moment his right leg aligned horizontally with Jin Haohun's, it accurately kicked at the base of Jin Haohun's thigh.

With Jin Haohun's own advancing inertia and the instability caused by continuous high-speed spinning, combined with the leverage from Chu Ge's right leg, Jin Haohun's body soared high into the air, sliding towards the outside of the building, into the deep night sky.

In the instant their bodies became parallel, Chu Ge and Jin Haohun's eyes met briefly, and this time, as Chu Ge saw Jin Haohun's pupils contract instantly, it was Chu Ge's turn to let a small smile creep onto his lips.

Jin Haohun's body arced through the air, reaching a peak height before descending, falling toward the exact spot where he thought Chu Ge would plummet.
