Chapter 146: Subduing the Criminal
Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation
Hai Tang touched the back of her waist where the criminal had stabbed her with a dagger and found that there was only a little blood. The wound was not deep, so she shook her head and replied,””I’m fine. You saved me. Thank you so much!”
“It’s nothing. You’re smart. If you didn’t call me hubby, I wouldn’t have realized that you were in danger. “The young man gave her a friendly smile and punched the struggling criminal in the face. He shouted, “Behave yourself!”
The criminal’s eyes rolled back and his limbs went limp. It was obvious that he had been beaten unconscious.
Only then did Hai Tang dare to walk to the young man’s side and explain to him, “”l’m sorry for offending you just now. I called you husband because he threatened me with a knife and asked me for cash. I had no choice but to lie to him. You happened to pass by, so I had no choice but to ask you for help.”
“I was wondering why I felt that I would be lucky tonight, so I came out to wander around. So it turns out that I saved an oriental beauty.”The young man said cheerfully.
While waiting for the police to arrive, Hai Tang learned that the young man who had saved her was called Fa Xiu. He was here for a vacation and had come out on a motorbike at night to wander around. It was a coincidence that he had saved her.
The Dharma Cultivator was tall and had long legs. The loose sportswear on his body could not hide his well-built muscles. His eyes were deep and he had a very exotic style. Hai Tang guessed that he was not an ordinary person, but she tactfully did not ask about his identity.
Seeing the tied up criminal being escorted into the police car, Fa Xiu suddenly turned his head and asked Hai Tang,””Don’t you think my name sounds familiar?”
“No, I haven’t.” Hai Tang shook her head honestly. The number of foreigners she had met could be counted on one hand, let alone someone who shared the same name as a Dharma Cultivator.
Dharma Xiu smiled brightly and looked into her eyes.”Beautiful lady, you haven’t told me your name.”
Hai Tang replied somewhat embarrassedly, “My name is Hai Tang.”
‘ What a nice name,” Fa Xiu praised enthusiastically.” You’re just like your name. You’re like a beautiful flower. But I think your eyes are the most beautiful. They’re very moving.”‘
Hai Tang was not used to such straightforward praise, so she nodded politely.
Seeing Hai Tang’s awkward expression, Fa Xiu hurriedly explained, didn’t mean to tease you. In our country’s culture, we should always praise beautiful things and people.”
“I understand, Mr. Dharma Cultivator.” Hai Tang brushed her hair behind her ear and said tentatively, ‘”‘ I still don’t know how to thank you…”
If she hadn’t encountered a Dharma Cultivator, she might have been hurt by the criminals, and the consequences would be unimaginable.
The Dharma Cultivator had saved her life, so she owed him a favor. Hai Tang was conflicted, not knowing how to repay this favor.
Pay? However, the way she dressed and talked about Fa Xiu did not seem like someone who lacked money. If she rashly offered to give him money, Fa Xiu might be angry.
If she wanted to repay him with something, Hai Tang was not sure what would be better.
Just as Hai Tang was in a dilemma, Fa Xiu waved his hand nonchalantly and said,””No need to thank me. This is what I should do.”
After saying that, he looked at his phone again and stepped onto the motorcycle. He looked at her and said, “It’s getting late. Hai Tang, do you need a ride home?”
“No, thank you for your kindness.” Hai Tang hurriedly waved her hand and refused.
He had already done her a huge favor, so she couldn’t ask the Dharma Cultivator to send her home again.
“Alright, then take care of yourself. I’m leaving. Bye.”The Mage put on his helmet and rode away on his motorcycle.
After finally settling everything and tidying up the messy shop, Hai Tang finally had the time to look at her phone and realized that Gu Yun had already sent her several messages.
[What are you busy with in the shop? Hai Yuan wanted me to play a game with him. He lost a few rounds and started to throw a tantrum.]
[Why isn’t my wife replying to my messages? I miss you so much.]
[Is something the matter? I want to pick you up.]
The message Gu Yun sent ten minutes ago was: [You’ve been ignoring me for an hour. I’m worried about you. I’ll pick you up at the shop.]
After reading the message, Hai Tang couldn’t help but tighten her grip on her phone…
