Chapter 43: The Four Silhouettes
"The White Family of Dongcheng, I've long admired your great name." I smiled lazily and said the words of admiration, but my demeanor was rather languid.
It suddenly fell silent.
Halfway through, that so-called big shot laughed and looked at me with a hint of interest in his eyes. He only said: "Beautiful girl, good eyesight."
I hummed in agreement, accepting his praise, and glanced at the man who looked embarrassed. I rolled my eyes and said, "Since I know your identities, it's probably not good for you to go back either. Why don't we just fight?" As I spoke, I had already started warming up my wrists.
They were six people, and they were from the Bai family. I'm not stupid enough to rush into the muzzle. In a one-on-one fight, I might still have a chance of winning.
After all, I have also received professional training, and the compulsory courses such as judo and swordsmanship are not to be mentioned.
The big brother laughed and said, "I didn't expect a girl like you to say something like that. After knowing we're from the Bai family, you can still be so calm and composed. It's really admirable." His eyes sparkled as he asked, "Beautiful lady, what's your name?"
"You should report your own name first." I proudly raised my head and learned from Gu Chen in a pretentious manner.
"In the lower reaches of the Chu River." He said loudly, his eyes staring at me intensely: "So can you say your name now?"
Is this the Wei Zichu who is under Bai's first-rate underworld? No wonder he's called Big Brother.
I yawned and replied calmly: "I didn't say I had to tell you my name, it's you who insisted on asking."
The man from before suddenly flew into a rage and shouted: "You're shameless!" I didn't doubt for a moment that his next move would be to take out a knife and chop me up.
Wei Zichu just smiled, the hostility and suspicion in his eyes disappeared, replaced by a smiling face.
"What a sharp-tongued little beauty, really good, really good for my appetite." He smiled foolishly, with an expression of being on the verge of drooling.
I'm disgusted.
Even after knowing he was Wei Zichu, I still didn't dare to be careless. After all, that one knife earlier was swung by him, the power and accuracy need not be said, if today's me was just an ordinary girl, I'm afraid I would have seen King Yan already.
"Cut the nonsense." I said directly: "It's best you hand over what you just robbed, otherwise I won't let you off."
At that moment, I couldn't help but admire myself.
"Damn it!" The man was furious and, disregarding Wei Zichu's attempts to stop him, charged straight at me.
It's a good thing I was prepared, my face sank, just as I was about to make a move, I was suddenly pulled into a cold-emitting embrace, the unique cold aura of Gu Chen tightly surrounded me. I was stunned for a moment, then let out a sigh of relief.
It's still better to leave it to Gu Chen. I flipped my eyes and simply closed them in his arms, resting.
Wei Zi Chu yelled loudly and slapped the man's occipital bone with one hand, scolding him for a while before preparing to pounce on me.
Gu Chen finally spoke up: "Is that Bai Fei Yuan guy still thinking of making a move on Lan Xuan? He really is overestimating himself."
When he heard the name of his own young master being called out by the man in front of him who was emitting a cold aura, Wei Zichu lost his composure for an instant before cautiously asking: "Who are you? How do you know my family's young master's name?"
"West City's Gu family, Gu Chen." Gu Chen held me tightly in his arms, expressionless as he revealed his identity.
Wei Zichu's eyes flashed with a hint of surprise, and the faces of those behind him also changed drastically.
"It turned out to be Young Master Gu's little brother." Wei Zichu revealed a perfunctory smile, "Could it be that Young Master Gu has also taken a liking to Lan Huan?"
He curved his lips into a seemingly smiling yet not quite smiling arc, "I'm not very interested in that thing." I seemed to feel the strength in his hand growing stronger.
It's done. I let out a mournful sigh in my heart, and Gu Chen had gotten me angry again.
