Courting Death!

542: Chapter 542: Got a Nasty Mouth?

Courting Death!

The sound was crisp!

It echoed throughout the room!

Xu Xinyi screamed in fright; she didn’t dare to turn back and face her aunt.

And Xu Juan was extremely panicked.

She subconsciously thought she had been hit.

She immediately fell to the ground in pain, as if she had been shot.

Ah!!

Xu Juan lay on the ground, unable to rise, just writhing and rolling about.

As if she really had been shot.

But in reality?

Wu Jie raised his gun and blew a breath over the muzzle.

Seeing Xu Juan rolling on the floor, he shook his head with a mocking smile.

“Does it hurt that much?”

Wu Jie asked curiously.

“It hurts…

it’s killing me…

I…”

Xu Juan lay on the ground, shouting loudly.

But as she yelled, she felt around her body, sensing carefully.

It seems…

perhaps…

maybe…

In an instant!

Xu Juan suddenly widened her bulging eyes.

What’s going on?

Not shot?

At such a close distance, Wu Jie, even if shooting blindly, would have hit her, right?

She had clearly seen the gun aimed at her head just before!

Wu Jie had even said that his shooting was terrible, aiming for the head but likely to hit the foot.

So, Xu Juan quickly looked down at her own legs, which were as plump as elephant’s.

Not painful!

Her whole body didn’t hurt at all, except for her buttocks!

Only when she fell butt-first to the ground just now, it hurt a bit.

But she had clearly heard the gunshot, hadn’t she?

Could it be that he wasn’t trying to kill or injure her, but just to warn or threaten?

Where did the bullet fly off to?

Xu Juan looked around, but dared not look at Wu Jie.

It was incredibly embarrassing!

She hadn’t been hit, yet she had acted as if she was dying, wailing and rolling on the ground.

It was just too damn embarrassing!

Meanwhile, Xu Xinyi hadn’t heard Xu Juan’s cries of agony.

Out of curiosity, she suddenly turned around.

She had thought she would see an extremely tragic and terrifying bloody scene, but what was the actual result?

She only saw her aunt Xu Juan, climbing up with an embarrassed expression on her face.

Wu Jie hadn’t killed her!

The shot he had fired had hit the slogan “The Customer is God” behind Xu Juan.

This slogan, compared to Xu Juan’s deceitful and shifty demeanor today, formed a stark contrast.

And the bullet hole that had pierced it was a huge irony aimed at her!

“This…”

Xu Xinyi was at a loss for words.

It was completely unexpected.

It hadn’t been that long since they last met, and Wu Jie had become so powerful.

It was as if by getting close to the beautiful CEO Tang Xiao and holding on to the powerful legs of the Tianyuan Tang Family, his status had skyrocketed!

“Are you still going to dawdle?”

Wu Jie asked with a cold smirk, “Although my shooting is sloppy, if I empty the magazine in one go, even a blind cat will hit a dead mouse, and I would surely hit you, wouldn’t I?”

Xu Juan, wearing a bitter smile and in an utterly awkward manner, said:

“I…

I won’t dawdle anymore!”

“Xinyi, please lend me thirty million quick!

You’ve seen it, Mr.

Wu really is in a hurry to return the goods!”

“I’ll write you an IOU, promising to use this jewelry store as collateral, and I’ll pay you back triple the bank interest.

How about it?”

Upon hearing this, Xu Xinyi didn’t make a sound but instead continued to look at Wu Jie with a curious expression.

“I say you’ve been living with more style!

You used to hurt people just with your mouth, but now you’ve even started playing with guns!”

“Where did you buy this from?

The craftsmanship isn’t bad at all!

It looks smoother than those produced by handcraft workshops.”

During the conversation, Xu Xinyi stepped forward and carefully examined the pistol as if it were some rare treasure.

“Like it?” Wu Jie asked with a sneer.

Xu Xinyi nodded without hesitation.

“I’ve played with one before too, but the replicas were poorly made.

My dad said to play with it as little as possible because not only is the aiming off, it might explode any moment, which is too dangerous!”

“This one…

tsk tsk, it even has a serial number!

Surely it wasn’t stolen and sold to you by someone?”

Wu Jie smiled without saying a word.

Xu Juan became anxious.

“Oh Xinyi, can you stop wasting time with your nonsense and just tell me, will you lend it or not?”

“People see Mr.

Wu differently now.

Just now, a police officer came by, and not only did he not confiscate the gun and arrest him, he even saluted Mr.

Wu!”

Upon hearing this, Xu Xinyi’s eyes lit up even more.

“Holy crap!

Look at you go!”

She gave a thumbs up, then turned to Xu Juan with an impatient tone:

“You want to borrow money?

Then what are you waiting for?

Write the IOU!”

“They say even blood brothers should settle accounts clearly, so all the more between us—it should be in black and white to avoid any disputes later on!”

“And another thing, if you’re using the jewelry store to pay off your debt, then the original business license must be mortgaged to me!”

After roaring this, Wu Jie saw Xu Juan start to copy everything down, and only then did Xu Xinyi settle herself next to him with a leisurely air.

“Appearances can be deceiving, eh?

Mr.

Wu, just how many identities do you have?”

“Also, I’ve already sent you the list of the inheritance I’m entitled to—do you want to buy it or not?”

“Hey…

say something!

Don’t just stay silent and refuse to speak!”

…

Wu Jie couldn’t be bothered to respond.

A nagging, deadweight of a fat woman!

An ignorant, spoiled young miss!

Being around people like her is a genuine pain in the ass.

If it weren’t for wanting to return that Pure Love diamond ring, Wu Jie would have left long ago; out of sight, out of mind.

After blabbering a bunch, Xu Xinyi finally had the sense to shut up.

“Ah, there are a hundred varieties of flowers, and people are just as diverse!”

Xu Xinyi made a sour comment, “Now, I’m just an orphan with neither parents nor backing, looked down upon by everyone!

I’d rather not stay here and suffer this humiliation.

Goodbye, Mr.

Wu!”

With that, Xu Xinyi sneered, rose, and made to leave.

Xu Juan, who hadn’t finished writing the IOU, was suddenly in a panic.

“Hey, Xinyi, don’t go!

I’ll finish writing the IOU in a jiffy!”

Xu Xinyi pursed her lips, “Sorry Auntie, I’m not in the mood today, I’m not lending any money!”

With a snort of derision, Xu Xinyi gave Wu Jie a sidelong glare.

“No matter how well you do, you’re just riding someone’s coattails.

What’s there to be proud of?”

She murmured this under her breath.

But the office was so small, and Wu Jie was sitting nearby.

It was hard for him not to hear her dripping sarcasm.

Was he just not buying her inheritance?

Was there really a need for such biting sarcasm?

“Hold on!”

Wu Jie suddenly called out to Xu Xinyi, his brows furrowed as he asked:

“Didn’t brush your teeth before you left the house this morning, did you?”

Xu Xinyi frowned slightly, apparently not getting it.

Wu Jie said coldly, “Can’t you understand human speech?

That’s why your mouth is so foul!”

Xu Xinyi pointed angrily at Wu Jie,

“What the fuck!

Who are you calling foul-mouthed?

I’m just speaking the truth!”

“Aren’t you just a pretty boy who got ahead by clinging to a woman?

The whole world knows about your talent for mooching off women—it’s top-notch!”

“What’s the matter?

Did calling you out for relying on others hurt your pitiful dignity, your fragile little heart?”

Wu Jie’s eyes narrowed slightly, the corners of his mouth lifted.

“What’s wrong with me not buying Xu Changshan’s contested inheritance?”

“Do you really have to be so sharp-tongued, so critical?”

“So I got ahead by relying on a woman, I mooched off women, but I charm them with my talent, what’s it to you!”

Xu Xinyi’s face darkened instantaneously, her teeth clenched as if she was on the verge of madness.

Seeing her reaction, Wu Jie hummed with amusement:

“I’ve realized that you’ve lacked manners since childhood.

Your dad was too busy conning and harming others to teach you gratitude!”

“If I hadn’t reminded you back then, would you have stood a chance fighting your stepmother for the inheritance?”

“And now, not only do you disrespect me, you actually have the gall to taunt and mock me!”

“Have you no conscience at all?”

Xu Xinyi glared fiercely at Wu Jie, biting her lip.

She wanted to curse, but she didn’t know where to start.

Because everything Wu Jie said was true, how could she refute it?

“Nothing to say now?” Wu Jie pointed at Xu Juan, “Then hurry up and lend her the money so she can pay me back immediately!”

Xu Xinyi sneered immediately, “Humph!

What if I don’t lend it?

What can you do to me?

If you have the guts, just shoot me!”

“Kill you?

I’d rather kill a rabid dog!”

Wu Jie didn’t want to waste his breath arguing with Xu Xinyi, he had suffered enough annoyance for one day.

Glancing over at Xu Juan, Wu Jie said irritably:

“I give you ten minutes.

In ten minutes, either I return the goods and leave, or your head will explode!”

“Are you going to return the goods or do you want to die?

The countdown starts now, make your choice!”

Xu Juan was utterly frantic.

With one leap, she dashed over and grabbed Xu Xinyi’s hand.

“Oh my dear niece, save me!

You can’t just stand by and let me die!”

Xu Xinyi struggled to break free, intent on leaving.

“Let go of me, if you weren’t refunding him, why wouldn’t I lend to you?”

“Are you trying to force me?”

“What do you mean?”

…

Xu Xinyi exclaimed in shock.

With a fierce tug, the stout Xu Juan yanked Xu Xinyi over to the desk.

With a loud thud!

Xu Juan forcefully pushed Xu Xinyi’s head down on the desk, picked up a utility knife from the desk, and pressed it against Xu Xinyi’s throat.

“Since Mr.

Wu has given me two options, I’ll give you two as well!”

“Either lend me the money right now, or the both of us can die together here and now!”

“But don’t worry, Auntie has been in the underworld for many years, I’ve stabbed plenty of people before!”

“If you want to die, I promise to be quick and won’t let you die in excruciating pain!”

…
