The one boy said, "Let’s run from here in our car or he will kill us. He is a monster."
"We can’t leave our friend here to die or his father will kill us later. Let’s beg for mercy and we all can leave together. I don’t wish to die so soon." said the second boy.
Seems like the boy who was hurt was from one powerful family.
"You are right. We will die in either way, so let’s just beg him to spare our lives. He looks rich, so I don’t think he would care if someone dies. He can get out of it easily," said the third boy.
"But he seems psycho," the first one said, who suggested running away.
"He is but just beg him for now." Saying all three went to Lu Feng. "We are really sorry. Our friend will die if we wait for more time."
The girl standing there didn’t know whether she should feel good to see those jerks like scared cats or she should pity them to get capture in the claws of one devil.
Lu Feng stopped. "Seems like you still have your conscience alive. Ask the girl. If she is ready to let you go, then you can."
This surprises the girl. She thought the drunk man in front of her was doing it for his own amusement after seeing how much he enjoyed it but she was wrong. He was drunk, but his mind was working fine.
The three boys immediately kneeled in front of the girl and said, "Please forgive us. We are sorry. Let us take our friend to the hospital first or he will die."
"Hmm!" The girl nodded as she too didn’t want the boy to die though he was a jerk.
Getting her approval, the boys went to their half dead friend. They covered his head to stop the bleeding with the cloth that one boy brought from the car. It was a spare pullover that they had in the car. Getting the boy inside the car, they left while the girl stood up looking at the car disappearing from her sight.
As she took one step to leave the space, she heard Lu Feng. "Kid, do you want to get into trouble again and want me to keep smashing the other’s head with the bottles the entire night?"
The words were sarcastic, but it made a sense to her and she said, "No!"
"Get into the car and I will drop you wherever you want to go."
She continued looking at him in a doubt and he said, "I am not interested in kids. Now get into the car."
Not arguing much, she decided to trust her savior and sat inside the car. "Can you drive as you are drunk?" she asked as he sat on the driver’s seat.
"Rest assured, you will have the same number of bones when you will get off from my car." Replying, Lu Feng started the car, and she sat quietly, thinking not to provoke the drunk and dangerous man or she might end up like that boy.
"Where?" he asked.
"Huh?" she couldn’t get his question.
"Where do you live, kid?" he asked again.
"School dormitory." she replied.
Not saying anything to her, he started the car. He was looking at the name of her school, which was written on the left pocket of her black jacket. He didn’t mind if she misunderstood him and concentrated on driving.
In a while, they reached the start of the city and Lu Feng turned his car from the main road towards the smaller roads which didn’t have proper light around.
"Where are we going?" she asked feeling anxious.
"To your place," Lu Feng replied.
He was not in a mood to say a single word, but he talked as he didn’t want to scare her knowing what must have been going in her mind.
"But why are we going from here?" she asked again looking at the narrow, deserted and darker roads ahead.
"Do you want me to get caught by the cops as I am drunk?" he replied.
"No!" Finally she understood what he was doing and gave out a sigh of relief.
"Then keep quiet and let me focus on the driving. I am already on the verge of dozing off."
"What? D-don’t sleep." Though she was scared, he was smiling seeing her scared reaction. "Kids now days, so annoying!" he mumbled.
She looked at his face. From the side she could see his carved features. Though he was in a messy condition, she could see he was actually one handsome man.
Soon they reached in front of the dormitory gate and she got off from the car. She bowed down and was about to say ’Thank you’ but he already stepped on the gas and left.
"Strange man!" the girl said and turned to look at the gate of the dormitory. Just then a thought came to her mind. "But how did he know this one is the place where I live?"
She looked at the name written above the gate and remembered something. It was when Lu Feng looked at her chest for a while and she understood he was reading the name written on her jacket. "Silly me!"
She looked in the direction of the road where the car disappeared. "Seems like he was not the bad person. I hope he will get back home safe.’’
She then looked back at the gate of the dormitory. "I don’t think I can enter inside as it’s way too late." She looked at the watch in her hand. "It will be dawn soon. Just wait out for a few hours and then I can go inside." She sat outside of the gate, at one side, leaning back at the compound wall.
