Chapter 678 “Can’t Let Her Live (1)”
Ho Cui Cui was so shocked that her eyes were literally popping. Against that murderous intent, even her breathing had become difficult….
Peng!
Bypassing whatever guard or defense the chubby girl had, Bai Yan uses her toe to kick the other side’s kneecap, causing the foe to fall to the ground in a kneeling position as a result of the pressure.
“You…” Enraged by the humiliation, Ho Cui Cui swings her head up to be only confronted by those deathly glares. Whatever she wanted to say in retaliation in that split second, it’s completely gone and replaced by an involuntary gulp.
The whole restaurant was deathly quiet as a result of the sudden move.
This woman… she’s too brutal.
A slight disagreement and she’s already beating someone?
“Do you still want to buy my fox?” the heel of her shoe now firmly pressing down against the chubby girl’s back, causing a not so obvious pain in the victim’s bone in the process.
“Or do you plan to skin him instead for his fur?”
With every question and word given there, Ho Cui Cui’s complexion would grow paler by the second because of the increasing pressure on her bone. In no time at all, a squirt of blood had seeped out of that trembling mouth and brought her back to reality. She’s hit a brick wall this time, a cue for trouble beyond her rank.
If only I can reveal my identity then this woman would never dare to do this to me…..
But Mu Leng’s message continues to linger in that head – if they want to successfully impersonate that woman then the public mustn’t be allowed to know about the matter.
Gritting those teeth, Ho Cui Cui ends up holding back her anger. In the girl’s mind, there would be other chances in the future for payback!
“Outrageous!” ”
It was just then a loud hollering voice had drifted over from the restaurant’s doorway.
Following the source of that sound, what came into view of Bai Yan’s eye was an elegant face of someone she’s met before.
Mu Leng also noticed the inquisitive gaze coming her way right at that moment, but unlike the flat reaction from the former, she herself was absolutely shocked by what came into her view. The very sight of Bai Yan’s face was enough to make her go green until it eventually fell into a state of panic.
Not missing this, a pang of suspicion promptly sprouted within Bai Yan’s head. It seems this person recognizes me….
“Hold it! ”
Forcing down the unsettling mood inside, the usually high-standing girl slowly strode into the restaurant to confront the other side: “Miss, this girl is my friend, I hope you can let this slide out of consideration for my name and face.”
The plea for mercy immediately warranted a look of gratitude from the chubby Ho Cui Cui. She didn’t expect someone as important as Mu Leng to personally come save herself, let alone claim they are friends!
The rest of the occupants inside the restaurant were nominally shock of course. There’s plenty of envious looks shooting their way now to the point where Liu Yu who’s the other participant in this fight had also backed down. The boy’s practically trying to hide in order to avoid eye contact.
The message today was too obvious. As long as they’re not brain dead, there’s only one meaning: The Ho family of the Misty Fairy House will no longer be a third-rate family anymore.
“Give you face?” “Bai Yan’s gaze squints into a frosty stare, “Do I know you?”
That last part of questioning definitely brought on a new wave of unease within Mu Leng’s heart. She’s very much afraid this woman would remember their last encounter and ruin everything she’s had planned for the future. Nevertheless, the will to continue with this farce wins out in the end. “We are not acquainted.”
“If we are not acquainted then why should I give you face?” Sneering with contempt at this point, Bai Yan cocks a smirk: “Is your face worth a lot of money?”
Now Mu Leng could no longer keep up her façade and actually showed a crack in the face. She simply never expected there to be an individual who would dare go against herself in the Misty Fairy House.
“If you are unwilling to give me face Miss then I can only apologize ahead of time. Uncle Mu, please restrain this lady for me.” Putting on an indifferent air of someone of superior status, this girl acts like she’s above everyone else despite willingly joining in on the fight.
But in truth, Mu Leng wanted this outcome from the very start. She only needs an excuse to have her people make a move. Then when it comes time, they could just make up some lie about it being an accident when they harm or kill off the woman.
“Yes, Miss!” Upon giving the confirming word, an old figure suddenly snakes out from behind the crowd and shot for Bai Yan’s neck using his hand as an arching arrow, reading to pierce through the skin and the main arteries.
