Chapter 189 - Psychological Damage
Chen Ye"s face darkened.
It wasn"t that he didn"t want to stop w.a.n.g Quan, but he didn"t manage to do that in time.
He was already afraid of Huo Siyu. Now, he even heard another girl say that his brother, Chen Xiaotian, owed her a favor.
Was she boasting?
Not necessarily.
Huo Siyu"s obvious inquiry showed that Huo Siyu trusted her and believed in her.
Then it was very likely that what she said was true.
He never expected that he would need to be wary of Huo Siyu, and even more so of Huo Siyu"s friend.
""w.a.n.g Quan! Stop!"
However, it was useless. The 10-odd people that w.a.n.g Quan brought went forward to arrest them. The commotion was rather big, and w.a.n.g Quan could not hear Chen Ye"s reprimand at all.
As for the brothers that w.a.n.g Quan had brought with him, one or two of them had heard Chen Ye and they paused for a moment. However, since they didn"t receive w.a.n.g Quan"s instructions, they only hesitated for a moment before continuing to charge forward again.
Huo Sisi was naturally frightened because of Yan Jinyu"s words.
She knew Yan Jinyu"s ident.i.ty but she didn"t take Yan Jinyu seriously. After all, she was just a girl who grew up in the countryside. Other than her looks and ability to attract men"s attention could make her feel a little threatened, she actually didn"t think highly of Yan Jinyu herself.
However, ever since she came into contact with her, she had long realized how difficult Yan Jinyu was to deal with.
Not to mention anything else, just the fact that she could avoid such a dangerous moment on the ski resort.
Moreover, Yan Jinyu"s fiancé was Master Nine.
She didn"t think that Yan Jinyu would be stupid enough to say something so easily exposed.
So, did Chen Xiaotian really owe Yan Jinyu a favor?
If that was true, then, then who did she provoke?
Also, what did Yan Jinyu mean by "just do it"?
Why did she sense that they did not take w.a.n.g Quan and the rest seriously and were very confident that Huo Siyu would not be at a disadvantage in front of these people?
Could it be Huo Siyu…
Huo Sisi didn"t have a chance to continue thinking about it.
Because she, who had retreated to the back, saw a shocking scene.
Huo Siyu suddenly stepped forward and grabbed the wrist of one of those people were about to catch them and twisted it!
She could clearly hear the sound of bones breaking.
"Argh—"
It was the man"s scream. Then, he was thrown to the ground hard by Huo Siyu.
Then, Huo Siyu flew up and instantly disarmed four more people.
It was not the kind of disarming where they could still stand up after being kicked down. It was the kind that after they fell to the ground, they could not stand up for a long time.
The men under w.a.n.g Quan had some skills too, but why were they so weak in front of Huo Siyu?
No! It was not that they were weak, but it was because Huo Siyu was too strong!
Then, Huo Siyu disarmed the remaining people without any effort.
That was not all. Without seeing her move, she quickly arrived in front of the stunned w.a.n.g Quan and pressed something against his neck.
Taking a closer look, it was actually a lancet.
When did Huo Siyu have a lancet? Did she carry it with her?
The lancet was very sharp. There was a b.l.o.o.d.y wound on his neck even when she didn"t use much force when it touched w.a.n.g Quan"s neck.
Huo Sisi was so frightened that she took a few steps back and almost fell.
"S-second Miss Huo…" w.a.n.g Quan was so frightened that he couldn"t speak properly.
Huo Siyu sneered, "Why are you trembling? Weren"t you very arrogant just now? Boy, do Beauty Yu and I look so easy to bully? Do you still want to take us away?"
"Tsk, you"re overestimating yourself."
"I thought I wouldn"t have the chance to exercise today. After all, Mr. Chen is very tactful. He didn"t have any designs on Beauty Yu and me, but you insisted on coming to us."
"You probably don"t know, but I haven"t exercised for too long and my hands are itchy."
She glanced at the people on the ground and said, "Did you see that? You brothers probably have to stay in the hospital for a long time before they can recover. That one was the first to make a move. My technique is very precise. His hand will never recover."
w.a.n.g Quan looked frightened while Huo Siyu continued to smile. "Oh, I even held back. No matter what, it"s still broad daylight. It"s not good to kill someone."
"However, if someone really dies, it"s not like I can"t resolve it. This is South City. As long as I give my brother a call, he will be able to settle the matter quietly. Do you believe me?"
"Therefore, it doesn"t really affect me whether I take your life or not."
"I"m very fast with my lancet. Do you want to try it?" As she spoke, she pushed the lancet forward.
w.a.n.g Quan was so frightened that he closed his eyes and shouted, "S-second Miss Huo, please spare me! Y-yes, I have entertained angels unawares! I have entertained angels unawares!"
"…Please show mercy, Second Miss Huo!" Chen Ye recovered from his shock. Fortunately, he reacted in time. Otherwise…
Indeed, as soon as he shouted, Huo Siyu"s hand that was holding the lancet paused and she looked up at him lazily.
However, she had no intention of retracting her lancet.
"w.a.n.g Quan is used to being tyrannical and offended Second Miss Huo. I"ll represent him to apologize to Second Miss Huo and…" He looked at Yan Jinyu, but he saw the smile in Yan Jinyu"s eyes.
His limbs turned cold. "…and this lady."
Under such circ.u.mstances, her smile did not change at all. It was as if everything was within her expectations. How could he not be shocked?
Huo Siyu was so skilled, but she still listened to her. What about her then?
Chen Ye did not dare to think further.
He was extremely glad that he trusted his intuition and had not provoked them.
Wasn"t he just as tyrannical as w.a.n.g Quan?
His big brother always told him to restrain himself. Otherwise, he might offend someone he shouldn"t have at one point. They were already in the midst of changing careers. If they offended someone, they would probably be in big trouble.
If he offended someone that even his big brother did not dare to offend, he would be finished.
He knew that his brother"s words usually made sense, but he just didn"t want to hear them.
It was only at this moment that he realized what kind of person he should not offend.
If he was not careful, he would lose his life.
It was obvious that Huo Siyu really dared to kill.
"Second Miss Huo, please spare w.a.n.g Quan"s life. I"ll bring him back and let my brother teach him a lesson. Then, I"ll give you a satisfactory explanation."
"Beauty Yu." Huo Siyu didn"t let him go. Instead, she asked Yan Jinyu.
"One hand," Yan Jinyu said to Chen Ye.
Chen Ye understood that she wanted w.a.n.g Quan"s hand.
No matter what, w.a.n.g Quan was his brother. He was about to plead for mercy, but the other party didn"t give him a chance to speak.
The girl smiled faintly and said unhurriedly, "One life or one hand, choose for yourselves." He wanted to bring beautiful girls back whenever he saw them. Who encouraged this evil practice?
She wasn"t a kind person, but she couldn"t bear to see such a thing happen either.
Of course, if they hadn"t targeted them, she wouldn"t have bothered. However, since they had tactlessly targeted them, she wasn"t a good person who repay evil with kindness. She couldn"t even be bothered to take his life because she was lazy.
"Little Rain, three seconds. If the other party doesn"t give us their choice, attack. I"ll clean up the aftermath."
Huo Siyu raised her eyebrows. "Three, two…"
"Alright!" Chen Ye gritted his teeth.
"I agree to your request! After I go back and meet my brother, I"ll definitely give your a satisfactory explanation!"
"Thank you for showing mercy. We owe Miss Huo and this lady a favor this time."
"There"s no need to owe me a favor." Yan Jinyu looked up at him. "Chen Xiaotian still owes me a favor."
A favor…
Now, Chen Ye believed that his brother might have really owed her a favor.
"How should I address you, Miss?"
"With your status in South City, it"s easy for you to find out who I am. Why bother asking? Even if I say my name, your brother might not know. You just have to tell him that two years ago, oh, it should be three years ago, Christmas Eve in Country M."
"That"s all you have to tell him and he"ll know who I am."
Chen Ye, who heard her words, was not calm anymore.
Christmas Eve three years ago…
He seemed to know what favor his brother had owed her.
Suppressing the shock in his heart, he said, "Alright, I"ll definitely tell my brother in detail."
"However, we don"t want the favor. You can compensate us for the psychological damage. Little Rain and I came out to play happily, but we were suddenly stopped by someone. We were so frightened that our good mood was gone. It"s not too much for you to compensate us for the psychological damage, right?"
Chen Ye"s current mood was a little indescribable.
Who exactly was frightened?
Even Huo Siyu"s face twitched.
Beauty Yu had said that they had already retired and would no longer take on missions. It would not be so easy to earn money in the future. Then, she wouldn"t touch the money that she had saved previously if she could, lest she didn"t have the money to retire.
She thought that Beauty Yu was just joking. After all, the a.s.sets in their hands couldn"t be spent in a few lifetimes, let alone supporting their retirement.
Now, she realized that what Beauty Yu said back then did not seem to be a joke.
She really wouldn"t touch it if she could!
Beauty Yu had previously cheated the Qiu Family of the capital out of a sum of money. With Beauty Yu"s current spending speed, that money was enough for her to spend for a long time.
Now, she was asking for compensation for psychological damage.
Uh, it could only be said that Beauty Yu was very good at making a living.
Hence, it was useless for them to keep an eye on Beauty Yu"s private account so that she couldn"t buy more yogurt. Beauty Yu had too many ways to earn money.
Even if Beauty Yu didn"t do anything.
"I-I wonder how much you need us to compensate… for the psychological damage?" Only Chen Ye knew how complicated he was feeling now.
"Think about the amount yourself. Just pay for what you think these lives are worth. Transfer the money onto Little Rain"s account"
"…Alright."
"Little Rain, let"s go."
After saying that, Yan Jinyu glanced inconspicuously at a certain direction not far away.
