Chapter 267 - 267 267 Mo Lan's True Attitude

267: Chapter 267 Mo Lan’s True Attitude 267: Chapter 267 Mo Lan’s True Attitude Zhong Qin’s words also left those two kids dumbfounded; they dared not claim it was an attempt to assault her, but rather lamely said they just wanted to play around with Zhong Qin and didn’t intend to hurt her.

Such childish lies naturally couldn’t deceive Zhong Qin, and she slapped them both several times, saying, “Am I so ugly that you don’t even want to assault me?” After finishing her words, Zhong Qin slapped them again, several times.

Zhong Qin’s personality truly was enigmatic, and those two kids were even more baffled, unsure of what to say to her.

At that moment, Xiang Yu suddenly stood up, then pulled out a dagger and plunged it into one of the men’s hands, asking, “Who sent you?”

With a dagger pierced through his hand, the man clenched his teeth, emitting a whining sound, but did not scream out loud.

He wasn’t under anyone’s orders; he had simply seen Zhong Qin alone and, noticing that she appeared to be carrying a lot of money, was tempted to do evil.

“We weren’t sent by anyone, we have a boss named Han Guohua.

He was said to have gone on a mission yesterday and never returned.

Feeling we had lost our support, we just wanted to grab some money and leave this place.” Though the man didn’t shout, tears streamed down his face, indicating he was truly in excruciating pain.

Han Guohua was one of Miao Honglei’s men, and Xiang Yu knew why he hadn’t returned—he had killed him himself.

“Where were you planning to take your granny?” Xiang Yu pressed.

“I have a few brothers, and they all traffic women.

This granny here is so beautiful, she would definitely fetch a good price,” the man cautiously said.

“Really?

How much could I sell for?” Zhong Qin asked, her large eyes filled with curiosity.

At this point, the matter was clear, and Mo Lan waved her hand, signaling Big Bear to take the two men out.

Yet Zhong Qin remained curious.

Looking at Xiang Yu, she asked, “How much do you think I could sell for?”

“You’re priceless,” Xiang Yu said with a chuckling smile.

Mo Lan, however, couldn’t help but give Xiang Yu another look.

From the moment Xiang Yu had taken out the dagger, she felt that Xiang Yu was no ordinary person—his sudden appearance in this city was surely not that simple.

“Your name is Xiang Yu, isn’t it?” Mo Lan suddenly asked, looking at Xiang Yu.

“Yeah, he’s my new little brother, super tough,” Zhong Qin said proudly.

Xiang Yu said nothing, merely nodding and smiling.

“You’d best not have any other intentions by staying close to the lady, or else I’ll make sure you die a very ugly death,” Mo Lan said coldly.

Though she always looked at Zhong Qin with warmth, her face was filled with a murderous intent when she gazed at Xiang Yu.

It had to be said, only a woman capable of making it to her position could display such duality.

It made him wonder if Kong Ruyu had not been dealt with by him in the past, whether she might have also become a dominant female boss.

But then again, the two women did have some similarities—they were both mature and beautiful in their own way.

But Kong Ruyu had a certain seductiveness about her, easily able to hook a person’s heart, whereas Mo Lan exuded a sense of maturity and steadiness; they were not walking the same path.

“How do you want me to die?” Xiang Yu met Mo Lan’s gaze without flinching, showing no fear, his eyes serene.

He had no bad intentions towards Zhong Qin.

When he first came here, his only intent was to take down the trashy gang led by Shen San, only to discover after arriving that the issues here were quite complex.

Even though Shen San was fond of killing, he was relatively low-key compared to the others.

Xiang Yu had been here for several days, and Shen San surprisingly hadn’t come to cause him any trouble.

Instead, Ding Yongwei and Miao Honglei were the first to seek him out.

By now, Xiang Yu had gradually grasped the basic situation.

Miao Honglei was in charge of drug trafficking, Ding Yongwei dealt with arms, and Shen San trafficked in people and organs among other disgusting things.

If Xiang Yu had to eliminate one person first among the four, he would definitely choose to take out Shen San first, as he was a beast capable of any evil.

The Mo Lan in front of him was in charge of gambling dens, which seemed to be not just this one but scattered throughout various corners of the city.

The fact that she could run a gambling den so openly here indicated that she was no simple character either.

Xiang Yu met Mo Lan’s gaze, and the two locked eyes for two seconds before Mo Lan let out a cold laugh and said, “I have many ways to kill you, if you don’t believe it, you can try.

I’m just reminding you that whatever you do in this city is none of my business, but if you harm the young lady, I will take your life.”

“Understood,” Xiang Yu didn’t want to argue on this topic and nodded firmly.

He also sensed a certain meaning in Mo Lan’s words.

Xiang Yu could target anyone, but he must not harm Zhong Qin.

That meant no matter whether Xiang Yu fought with Ding Yongwei or with Miao Honglei, Mo Lan would not interfere.

Zhong Qin observed the somewhat awkward atmosphere between the two, then turned to Mo Lan and said, “Aunt Mo Lan, don’t be so nervous.

How could she possibly harm me when she’s my subordinate?

Isn’t that right, Xiang Yu?”

Xiang Yu quickly nodded, assuring, “Rest assured, I will protect Zhong Qin.”

Xiang Yu was telling the truth.

Zhong Qin hadn’t really done anything wrong, and he had no wish to harm the girl.

He followed Zhong Qin with the hope of finding a breakthrough to infiltrate the organization.

Zhong Qin played around for a while longer before preparing to leave.

Mo Lan originally wanted to send some people to protect Zhong Qin, but Zhong Qin refused, feeling safe as long as Xiang Yu was by her side.

After Zhong Qin reminded Mo Lan again not to tell her father about her visiting here to play, she finally left satisfied.

They roamed around the city for a while, with Zhong Qin buying lots of clothes, which left her contented.

Inevitably, Xiang Yu could only resign himself to the fact that girls will always be girls — they love shopping for clothes.

However, there was no help for it, he was currently playing the role of a protector of beauty, and naturally had to play it well.

After Xiang Yu escorted Zhong Qin back, he finally had a chance to rest.

He had just gotten back to his own room when Tie Zhuzi and Xiao Xuan came in.

Tie Zhuzi looked at a somewhat fatigued Xiang Yu and hesitated as if he wanted to say something.

Seeing this, Xiang Yu said, “If you have something to say, just say it.”

Tie Zhuzi then said, “Brother Yu, Zhang Xu and Liu Song both want to join us, to hang out with us.”

Upon hearing this, Xiang Yu promptly sat upright, the weariness on his face vanishing as he cautiously looked at Tie Zhuzi and asked, “What did they say?”

When Xiang Yu first saw the two men, he felt they were not simple and guessed that they were sent by Zhong Qin’s father to protect her.

Now that they said they wanted to follow him, Xiang Yu grew suspicious, unsure whose men these two actually were.

“They didn’t say much, just that you are an extraordinary person, Brother Yu, and they want to acknowledge you as their elder brother,” said Tie Zhuzi, looking solemnly at Xiang Yu.

Xiang Yu glanced at his watch, noting it was only two in the afternoon, then looked at Tie Zhuzi and said, “Call them over…”
