Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
“I already said that I wouldn’t let those people off easily. Why did you help me block all my escape routes when you opened your mouth? If I don’t dare to attack this time, should I be grateful to you for helping me provoke these two big shots and draw a lot of hatred?”
When the sect master of the Underworld Sect, who had awed the world in the eyes of outsiders, looked at the incomparably beautiful girl in front of him, the words from his mouth were as gentle as a hot spring, warm and thoughtful.
Hearing Ming Tu’s teasing, Zhuang Xian raised her eyebrows mischievously and stood up.
She raised her uninjured hand and patted Ming Tu’s shoulder. She chuckled and said, “You’re welcome. This is what I should do! Since you’re already in City H, I’ll leave the rest to you! Zhang Tao’s subordinates suffered heavy losses in this mission. You have to do a good job of soothing the good family. Don’t let the old general’s heart turn cold! As for those useless bastards in the government, you must think of a way to teach them a lesson. If even you can’t do it, I can only beg the old man!”
Zhuang Xian gave Ming Tu a look that said, ‘You know what I mean.’ Then, she strode out of the office, leaving only Ming Tu with her back view!
Ming Tu looked at Zhuang Xian’s back with a stifled expression, and a weak smile appeared. He thought about Silente and sighed deeply, shaking his head slowly. After not seeing Silente for a long time, he felt that this child had become more cheerful, lively, and even cuter.
Li Zhen waited for Zhuang Xian for nearly two hours outside the main gate of the Underworld Gate branch before Zhuang Xian finally finished settling everything and walked out.
After seeing the injury on Zhuang Xian’s arm, Li Zhen’s expression became solemn, and his mood immediately sank to the extreme. He took a few deep breaths, barely suppressing the anger in his heart.
Seeing that Zhuang Xian obediently climbed into the off-road military vehicle and calmly sat beside him, Li Zhen sighed helplessly. After a while, he raised his hand and pointed at the driver sitting in front, indicating they could set off.
Feeling the car start, Zhuang Xian looked at Li Zhen with a guilty conscience and said softly, “I’m fine. Why are you pulling a long face? Ming Tu also rushed over this afternoon. Just now, he was in a meeting with a group of people. You shouldn’t have seen each other for a long time. How long have you been waiting outside? Why don’t you go in and see him?”
When Li Zhen heard this, he turned around and glanced at Zhuang Xian. His gaze was very unfriendly.
Zhuang Xian’s heart skipped a beat. She had a bad feeling. She wanted to say something to divert the old man’s attention so that she could get through this crisis temporarily!
However, there were times when people made mistakes and horses stumbled. Even someone as smart as Zhuang Xian would have times when she begged for mercy in front of the people closest to her.
Even though this ‘begging for mercy’ was not obvious at all, anyone who knew Zhuang Xian a little would understand that the reason why Zhuang Xian kept chatting with others to ease the depressing atmosphere was that she was annln?i7.in? and begging for mercy
Li Zhen naturally understood Zhuang Xian. He also knew that these were the awkwardness in Zhuang Xian’s personality. In the past, he would still think that this was Zhuang Xian’s unique and cute trait, but now that he looked at it, he felt it was annoying and uncomfortable.
As expected, a child was still a child no matter what. She would feel uncomfortable if she didn’t scold him for a day. She would dare go to her room and tear off the tiles if she didn’t hit him for three days.
This was the first time Li Zhen had felt so clearly that Zhuang Xian was much more challenging to discipline than that stinky brat Li Qin!
Zhuang Xian usually looked obedient and sensible, but if something happened, her mind would be more significant than the person before her. She did not take the lessons and nagging of her elders to heart at all. She did things recklessly and did not care about the consequences. She did not care about her safety, causing those who cared about her afraid daily. Especially in a situation like today, Li Zhen was going crazy!
