Chapter 26
She only had one chance to fight for her life now!
Qiu Tong’s gaze sharpened. Just as the cheetah was about to pounce on her, she lifted her leg and kicked the cheetah’s chin. Pushing off the ground with one hand, she twisted her nimble and slender waist, before straightening her body and leaping onto the cheetah’s neck!
She had escaped from the jaws of death!
Everyone’s hearts nearly stopped at her move. The screams from the stands were loud enough to shatter glass. Money bills were tossed at her like snowflakes.
Qiu Tong was not in the mood to look. All her attention was on the raging cheetah, and her injured wrist was gradually losing strength.
She could not delay any longer.
Her slender legs flew forward and clamped down on the cheetah’s neck like a pair of scissors. With a violent and arrogant howl, she exerted force on her legs, and the sound of bones breaking was especially clear.
The cheetah slowly crumbled to the ground. Its dark golden body lay motionless on the floor.
Qiu Tong stood up, panting. Her face and body were soaked with blood. She had a wild and exciting beauty that pierced the eyes of the crowd.
“Qiu Tong! Qiu Tong!”
Waves of cheers erupted from the stands, and everyone’s faces turned red as they shouted crazily. They had personally witnessed the birth of a miracle. Qiu Tong had really defeated the cheetah and won the additional segment!
In Private Room Eight on the second floor, Jin Yang’s eyes shone brightly.
“Invite her here.”
His low and deep voice was filled with admiration. He turned his head and ordered Shao An to invite Qiu Tong over, but Shao An had his own concerns.
“Mr. President, I’m not sure about Qiu Tong’s background. She’s just a single mother, yet she’s so skilled. I’m afraid her background might be complicated.”
“Furthermore, her appearance during the attack was too coincidental. I suspect that someone was behind it.”
“With your special status, it’s best not to meet civilians in private.”
“Are you done?”
Jin Yang narrowed his eyes slowly, his expression unchanged as he said indifferently, “Bring her up.”
“Mr. President!”
Shao An’s tone was a little anxious. Their expedition this time had been a trap all along. It was an opportunity deliberately created for the terrorists to try and assassinate the president, so that they could catch the mastermind behind everything.
But if Jin Yang summoned Qiu Tong on impulse, it might alert the enemy.
Jin Yang glanced at him coldly and Shao An instantly fell silent. He lowered his head with a dark expression and resigned himself to his fate as he went out to get Qiu Tong.
Apart from the $30,000 prize money as the grand champion of the boxing matches, there was also the $30,000 for the additional segment, as well as tips from the audience. All in all, she had received a total of about $100,000 in cash.
Satisfied, Qiu Tong signed her name and prepared to leave with the money.
“Miss Qiu.”
Shao An, whom she had met at the kindergarten, suddenly appeared beside her and looked at her expressionlessly. “Our Boss wants to thank you in person.”
Qiu Tong raised an eyebrow. “No need. I’ve already received my money. We’re even.”
Shao An stood in front of her with abnormal persistence. His gaze was especially stubborn. “Our Boss only wants to meet you. Please come with me.”
Seeing that the other party was so persistent in wanting to see her, Qiu Tong frowned. She could vaguely feel that she had piqued the interest of a very troublesome character.
In order to quickly draw a clear line with the other party, Qiu Tong gestured for Shao An to lead the way. When they reached the second floor, she realized that they were the guests in Private Room Eight!
“Hello, Miss Qiu. My name is Song Yan.”
In the private room, Jin Yang was wearing a black windbreaker. His facial features were deep and reserved. He had sharp eyebrows and bright eyes. His light-colored eyes appeared amiable, but they were actually filled with keen sharpness. From time to time, they would flash with a harsh glint.
He had purposely used his younger brother’s name.
“Hi.”
While Qiu Tong was sizing up Jin Yang, he was also sizing her up. He saw that Qiu Tong was unexpectedly thin and weak.
There was actually such a huge amount of energy hidden in such a slender and frail body. Jin Yang quietly raised his eyebrows and became more interested in Qiu Tong.
Jin Yang glanced at the wound on Qiu Tong’s forehead and a dark glint flashed across his eyes.
Previously, the fatal wound on his chest had unexpectedly healed without any treatment. After eliminating several other suspects, Jin Yang cast his suspicious gaze towards Qiu Tong now.
Could this woman have healing powers?
He had always known that the parliament was secretly implementing a human modification plan, but this plan was a highly-classified secret of the government and could not be divulged to the outside world. Only high-ranking personnel knew of it. Moreover, as far as he knew, none of the human modification experiments had been successful, and none of the subjects had been released.
Was Qiu Tong a modified human?
“Miss Qiu, it’s all thanks to you that my injuries from the previous incident recovered so quickly.”
Jin Yang nonchalantly tried to probe her. “Your injuries are so serious this time, I’m afraid you need to rest well.”
Qiu Tong touched her forehead. She was very guarded and did not use her supernatural power to heal herself. She just nodded casually. “Yes, just doing what’s necessary to survive.”
She narrowed her eyes and looked at Jin Yang with a thoughtful look. “Mr. Song, where are you from? Have we met before?”
Qiu Tong rubbed her chin thoughtfully. “Why do I find you so familiar?”
