Chapter 207 — Black Panther Escapes

"Wow, if I marry him, then wouldn't you have to marry him too?" Shen Yushu pretended not to understand. "Yaoyao, you're so sly — you like Arrow Bro yourself, but you're using me as your vanguard, oh oh..."
"Xiaoshu! What nonsense are you spouting? Who likes him?" Gu Mengyao clapped a hand over Shen Yushu's mouth. Surely that Wei Zhao creature hadn't heard? How humiliating. And what was Xiaoshu thinking, taking a childhood joke of an oath so seriously all this time... She wasn't stupid, so why did she like the idea of being a concubine?
"Hehe..." Shen Yushu smiled and said nothing. "I won't say it. If I do, you'll just cover my mouth again, Yaoyao!"
"Hmph, let me tell you, you're not allowed to tip him off in advance. I'll be watching you." Gu Mengyao was angry now, leaving Shen Yushu no room at all.
"Huh?" That had indeed been Shen Yushu's plan — to secretly contact Arrow Bro first and tell him to play along with her that evening. She hadn't expected Gu Mengyao to block her path before she could. Had she known, she would never have provoked Gu Mengyao; provoking her only brought trouble down on herself... A real miscalculation! She had thought a bit of nonsense would make Yaoyao forget the whole thing...
Shen Yushu's eyes darted around twice, but no good solution came to mind, so she could only sigh in defeat. "All right... Yaoyao, I'll just confess..."
"That's more like it! A promise kept is what makes a good girl." Gu Mengyao nodded and pulled Shen Yushu back to the villa.
Wei Zhao had long since returned to the villa and called Uncle Qing, hoping he would come fix the car — but he was driving Gu Pengzhan to a neighboring city for a business event and would not be back for a while.
Not long after he hung up, Wei Zhao unexpectedly received a call from Qiu Lingshan. After a moment's hesitation, he answered. "What is it? Don't tell me you want me to go catch someone again?"
"Wei Zhao, Black Panther has escaped!" Qiu Lingshan's urgent voice came through the phone.
"Black Panther? Escaped?" Wei Zhao was slightly taken aback.
"Yes, just this afternoon, on the way from the police station to the detention center, Black Panther suddenly went berserk and injured three police officers and two auxiliary officers. One of the auxiliary officers is critically wounded and still not out of danger at the hospital..." Qiu Lingshan said.
"What? He injured three police officers and two auxiliary officers? Five people? Are you sure?" Wei Zhao was stunned. Black Panther's strength was hardly anything to speak of — how could he have taken down five people? Was this some kind of joke?
Back when he had dealt with Black Panther himself, it had been practically child's play; he hadn't even used any of his real skill. Black Panther's strength was not even half of the early Yellow Rank — he was merely a little more ruthless... Could the kid have been hiding his true strength?
