Tiny Genius Alert! Mom & Dad Better Make Peace

Chapter 1027: Chapter 7: Ugly Freak? Can You Make Your Mouth Even Nastier?

Gu Yan squinted his eyes, withdrew his gaze from the end of the street, and flashed a sinister smile as he looked at the woman beside him.

Nie Xiaoxing dared not to relax her guard, sprinting through several streets before ducking into a dark alley, gasping against the wall.

Suddenly, her wrist was seized by a large hand.

Nie Xiaoxing gasped in shock and swung her leg out instinctively.

"Hmm..."

Gu Yan hadn’t expected Nie Xiaoxing to be so fierce. He took a hard kick to the stomach and groaned in pain.

He hadn’t even recovered from that kick when he saw Nie Xiaoxing raising her leg to strike again.

Gu Yan inhaled sharply, gritted his teeth, and dodged, growling, "Enough! If you hit me again, I will fight back!"

Nie Xiaoxing, "..."

Her eyes narrowed, holding her breath, she stared intently, drenched in sweat.

But as soon as she made out the face in the dim alley, Nie Xiaoxing exclaimed, "Brother Gu Yan..."

"Boss, over here!"

A series of heavy footsteps charged towards them aggressively.

Gu Yan clicked his tongue, glanced at Nie Xiaoxing, grabbed her hand, and ran in the opposite direction.

Nie Xiaoxing was pulled forward by him, her eyes wide with the sudden, intense pace. Staring at Gu Yan’s broad back, her heart pounded furiously, unsure if it was from the sprint or something else.

Gu Yan clung tightly to Nie Xiaoxing’s hand, running out of the alley and down another street.

With the eyes of those pursuers locking onto them, he pulled Nie Xiaoxing into a parked G-TR on the roadside.

The car sped off in less than three seconds, kicking up dust as it raced away.

Nie Xiaoxing watched through the car window as the group of men brazenly commandeered a vehicle, dragging its owner out and climbing in, chasing after them.

Nie Xiaoxing turned to look at Gu Yan.

Gu Yan narrowed his eyes, his chest heaving, casting a chilling glance through the rearview mirror at the pursuing car.

"Racing my Speed God? They have no idea who they’re dealing with! Fine, I’ll play with them a bit."

Nie Xiaoxing, "..."

After that, Gu Yan drove leisurely through various parts of the city.

Whenever the car behind them got close, he’d suddenly accelerate.

Once there was some distance again, he deliberately slowed down.

Nie Xiaoxing’s big eyes sparkled, watching Gu Yan.

Was he toying with them?

...

After nearly an hour of being toyed with by Gu Yan, the pursuers finally realized they were being led on. Frustrated, the driver slapped the steering wheel, deciding not to pursue any further.

Gu Yan saw that the car had stopped by the roadside and let out a sinister laugh, "Mess with me, and I’ll mess you up!"

After chuckling, he noticed silence beside him. He frowned, raised an eyebrow, and glanced sideways.

Unexpectedly, he met Nie Xiaoxing’s steady gaze.

The car wobbled on the road, and Gu Yan gripped the steering wheel tightly, frowning, "Stop staring, I hate being watched!"

Nie Xiaoxing pursed her lips, withdrew her gaze, and took her bag from behind her. She opened it and pulled out a packet of tissues. After a moment’s hesitation, she offered one to Gu Yan, "Wipe your sweat."

"What’s the sweat for? It’s been an hour; if there was any, it dried long ago."

Gu Yan stared at the road ahead, "Who were those chasing you?"

After asking, there was no response from Nie Xiaoxing.

Gu Yan clicked his tongue, glanced impatiently to the side, only to see Nie Xiaoxing with her head down, "intently" wiping away sweat, as if she hadn’t heard his question.

His eyes narrowed slightly, and Gu Yan gave a cold laugh, "Fine if you don’t want to talk. I didn’t want to know anyway."

Nie Xiaoxing’s hand paused, and she gently raised her eyes to look at Gu Yan, not missing the cold arc at the corner of his mouth. She whispered, "What were you doing there?"

Gu Yan gave her a sidelong glance.

He thought, you’re ignoring my questions but expect me to answer yours? In your dreams.

Now, it was Gu Yan’s turn to ignore Xiao Xing.

Nie Xiaoxing watched him, not minding at all. Her lips curved slightly, though the arc was subtle, it was there, "Thanks for today."

Gu Yan snorted softly.

...

Gu Yan dropped Nie Xiaoxing off at the apartment building she lived in.

Gu Yan glanced at the building, his eyes flashing slightly.

Nie Xiaoxing unfastened the seatbelt, opened the car door, and got out. She walked around to the driver’s side, bent down to say goodbye to Gu Yan.

But the car drove off before she could speak.

As the car sped past, Nie Xiaoxing instinctively stepped back, slightly taken aback by the rush of wind. She frowned lightly, her gaze darkening slightly as she watched the G-TR drive off into the distance.

...

Qingcheng Villa District.

Yuan Xihuo sat on the living room sofa, gossiping with Nanny Liu while watching a family drama on TV. Suddenly, the sound of a car engine came from outside the villa.
