Chapter 833 - A Gutless Cur
Chapter 833: A Gutless Cur
Brother Huang and his couple of thugs, whose backs and heads were being grazed by the rocks on the ground, moaned from the pain while being dragged by one leg were taken care of by Hou Zi and the guys. As to Luo Ran, who had passed out, naturally, Boss Luo came to pick him up personally.
Ye Jian1 had already retracted the silver wire near the end. Still, Luo Ran who had lost his senses to fear didn’t know that the reason he wasn’t able to make any loud noises was that he had lost his voice due to fear, and wasn’t because his voice was strangled away by the silver wire in Ye Jian’s hand.
Passing out from fear was the result Ye Jian needed.
She wrapped the silver wire back onto her forearm bit by bit. At the same time, she looked at Luo Ran who was lying down like a dead fish, and she mockingly laughed: “With only this amount of courage, he still dared to speak about murder every time he opened his mouth, I don’t even know where his confidence comes from.”
“Your usual cordial behavior is to blame, giving off an illusion to others that you’re someone easy to mess with.” He watched her frighten a boy to the point of passing out, Xia Jinyuan2 raised her hand and massaged his forehead, he said helplessly: “If you just show off more of your mean side occasionally, then the seat of the top dog in school is yours to take.”
The little fox always gave off the impression of a good girl in front of her classmates, cordial, humble, and polite, precisely because of that’s giving off the illusion that she’s someone easy to bully.
Ye Jian blinked her eyes and shook her head, and she said with a serious face: “That won’t do, a Special Ops soldier must know how to disguise. My public identity is a high schooler; how could I do something that destroys my own identity in school?”
“If he returns to school and talks about what happened tonight, that would still destroy your good student identity.” While speaking, Xia Jinyuan waved one of his hands behind his back, the previously silent motorbikes revved up simultaneously, after a brief rumble, the barren land was once again engulfed in darkness, leaving behind him and her.
As to Luo Ran, who had passed out, they treated him as nonexistent.
With the cold night breeze and the chirping of insects, the area that was still filled with bloodthirst a minute ago had returned to peacefulness a minute later, with the passing of the night breeze, it was like nothing had ever happened here.
Ye Jian stepped towards the direction of the road; her calm and indifferent voice was cool like water, she leisurely answered while walking: “Nope, he wouldn’t dare speak of it, let alone talk bad about me in school.”
“Why not?” Closing the distance with just a few steps, he accurately and smoothly grasped her hand, Xia Jinyuan asked with a smile: “I’ve heard everything just now, that boy was still acting so arrogantly even when death is approaching, when he returns to school, it’s hard to say when he’ll start bullying you again.”
His hand was really warm, but also really dry, when held by his hand, warmth and safety came with, making it hard for her to stop the corners of her lips from arching upwards, “Nope, he wouldn’t dare, he wouldn’t dare.”
She repeated her words, she said with full certainty, confident yet assured.
The hand that he grabbed inside his palm was very soft, as if her bones would be damaged by exerting a little bit more strength. Xia Jinyuan kept holding it; he wore a faint smile on his handsome face, “How do I say this? He looks quite gutsy to me.”
“He’s not gutsy at all, trust me, after tonight, he’ll become an absolutely honest man in front of me.” Ye Jian also held onto his hand, slender yet strong, filled with vigor, “I told him just now, someone like him without the ability to kill people dared to spread it all over the place, if someone like me who had the ability to kill wanted to kill him, is going to be a piece of cake. That’s why he’ll be afraid, afraid that I’ll really act on my words and take care of him.”
“As to his guts, he doesn’t have any. Someone who doesn’t have any ability yet acts very arrogantly are normally timid people, those with the ability but act very arrogantly, normally only act arrogantly when they’re about to kill someone.”
