The King of Urban Mercenaries
Chapter 599 - 599 600 Anxious Xue Mei Goes Berserk

599: Chapter 600: Anxious, Xue Mei Goes Berserk 599: Chapter 600: Anxious, Xue Mei Goes Berserk The next morning.

Zhonghai, West Suburb.

Thorny Rose Headquarters.

Rose Manor.

Ice Cave Ward.

Damn, why is it so painful!

And, why is it so cold!

These were Lin Fei’s two most immediate feelings when he regained consciousness.

“Sister-in-law, the boss has woken up.”

Butcher, who had been keeping watch by Lin Fei’s side along with the frigid beauty Xue Mei, saw Lin Fei open his eyes.

He promptly alerted Xue Mei, who had been dozing on Lin Fei’s body.

“Lin Fei, you’re awake.

How are you feeling?

Is there any discomfort?” Xue Mei, alerted by Butcher’s words, immediately raised her head.

The ravishing eyes that had been closed snapped open and focused on Lin Fei’s face.

At the same time, her pale and delicate hand reached out to rest on Lin Fei’s forehead.

“I’m fine, just feeling a bit cold,” Lin Fei casually responded to the frosty beauty Xue Mei, then turned his gaze to Butcher and said coldly, “Did I have another episode?”

“Yes.” Butcher nodded in affirmation, his face showing guilt.

“Boss, it’s my fault.

I should have thought of it earlier when you heard—”

“It’s not your fault.” Waving his hand to stop Butcher’s self-criticism, Lin Fei struggled to sit up, taking Xue Mei’s delicate hand into a firm grip, revealing a rare look of anxiety in his eyes.

“I didn’t hurt you, did I?!”

At that moment, Lin Fei was undoubtedly filled with trepidation.

His nervousness was comparable to, if not greater than, the feelings he had experienced when he first set foot on the battlefield.

Seeing the anxious look in Lin Fei’s eyes and feeling the sweat beginning to form on her delicate hand that Lin Fei was holding, Xue Mei, who had been worried about Lin Fei all night in the Ice Cave Ward, felt a strange warmth in her heart.

“No, you’re overthinking it.

I was quite far from you guys, even if you wanted to hurt me—”

“Sister-in-law, the boss often teaches us.

Lying is wrong.”

Butcher’s rather abrupt interjection stopped the laughter in Xue Mei’s phoenix eyes and eased the tension in Lin Fei’s eyes momentarily.

“Did I injure you?

How did I injure you?

Is the injury serious?”

Hearing Butcher’s interruption, Lin Fei, understanding that he might have truly injured the cold beauty Xue Mei the night before, looked deeply worried—as if he would have examined Xue Mei right there and then if Butcher hadn’t been present to see just where he had injured her.

“No, don’t listen to his nonsense.

You just accidentally bumped into me a bit; it’s nothing serious.”

However, it seemed Butcher had developed a habit of interrupting.

Just as Xue Mei finished speaking, Butcher spoke up again.

“Yes, it’s not very serious.

It’s just that the boss accidentally, with one kick, made you bleed, sister-in-law, and you nearly passed out.

Tsk tsk, luckily you weren’t pregnant.

Otherwise, you might have had a miscarriage from that kick.”

“If you don’t speak, no one will think you’re a mute!”

After being undermined by the Butcher twice in a row, even Xue Mei, this cold and charming creature, harbored affections that fully entwined around Lin Fei.

Due to her discontent, the woman turned her beautiful head aside and warned the Butcher with resentment shining in her phoenix eyes.

“The door is that way, get lost on your own!”

Compared to Xue Mei’s frustrated verbal warning, Lin Fei was undoubtedly more straightforward.

Although the Butcher and he had been brothers for many years and the Butcher had in a roundabout way informed him of the truth,

the current situation clearly made Lin Fei desire nothing more than to spend some alone time with Xue Mei, the cold and charming beauty.

“Boss, I actually think I should stay.”

“I think you should get lost!”

“If we’re talking fair, we should consult my sister-in-law’s opinion.”

“Your sister-in-law listens to me!”

“If I remember correctly, I should have more than one—actually, what I mean to say is, didn’t you think, boss, why would I go to Zhonghai if I knew you were there?!”

“What do you mean?!”

“According to my investigation, Little Tiger’s daughter is right here in Zhonghai!”

Upon the Butcher’s words, Lin Fei’s expression instantly froze!

The feelings of guilt and worry that had been growing in his tiger eyes upon learning that he had hurt Xue Mei when he fell ill were steadily replaced by a hint of bloody color.

“I don’t welcome you here!

Please leave!”

Seeing Lin Fei’s face darken and even showing signs of falling ill again, Xue Mei, already worried about him, swiftly turned fierce and unceremoniously scolded the Butcher.

After all, she was the person in charge of the vast Thorny Rose, and although she had become much more feminine since her heart had belonged to Lin Fei, Xue Mei, still a long-standing figure of authority, undoubtedly possessed considerable prestige when she turned cold.

Even when facing someone like the Butcher, one of the four leaders of Hell’s Judgement Organization, and a renowned figure in the Mercenary World!

In fact, it was precisely because she perceived the deep relationship between the Butcher and Lin Fei that she had not already summoned the members of Thorny Rose to expel the Butcher from Rose Manor by force.

“Sister-in-law, I’m sorry.

I must tell you this!

You may not know, but Little Tiger is one of us—”

“I don’t know!

And I don’t want to know!

I only know that if it weren’t for you, Lin Fei wouldn’t have become like this!

Regardless of whatever relationship you have with Lin Fei, and whoever Little Tiger is, I just know that I do not want to see Lin Fei like he was last night ever again!

And I absolutely will not allow, for him to fall ill here a second time!”

These words had been broiling in Xue Mei’s chest all night.

If it weren’t for her extraordinary upbringing in Rose Manor, she might have broken down when Lin Fei had kicked her away while he was ill.

Though she was the ruler of Thorny Rose, she was ultimately just a woman!

A woman who, despite being kicked aside by her own man, saw him fall into madness and felt powerless to help!

A woman who could only watch and wait helplessly by the side as her man lay unconscious!

“It’s okay.

What’s done is done, don’t worry, I won’t fall ill again.

Even if just for you, I absolutely will not fall ill again!” Lin Fei, whose tiger eyes were beginning to redden after hearing what the Butcher said, heard Xue Mei’s sharp retort to the Butcher.

The blood in his eyes quickly faded, and his large hand instinctively embraced the woman into his arms.

The Butcher, too, was taken aback by Xue Mei’s words.

Seeing Lin Fei wrapping his arms around Xue Mei and knowing that he should no longer stay and be in the way, he left the Ice Cave Ward with a casual stride, heeding the signal in Lin Fei’s eyes…
