Chapter 294: Tougher Than Me
Chapter 294: Tougher Than Me
Under this gaze, her body seemed to be under a spell, unable to move at all.
This power...
Extremely powerful and terrifying!
The last time this kind of power gave her this terrifying feeling was when Ruan Xihe had just arrived in this world and was strangled by Fu Ling.
It was as if the person behind him just moved his fingers, and Ruan Xihe would be easily crushed to death like an ant.
The desire to get stronger faster instantly filled her mind. She gathered all her strength to fight against this force, trying to regain a little bit of control over her body.
at this time.
"Ah..."
In the darkness, a faint laugh came from somewhere.
The laughter seemed to be suppressed deliberately. The cold and thin sound squeezed out from the throat was like a cold wind in the middle of the night, clearly penetrating Ruan Xihe's ears and giving her goose bumps.
As the laughter died down, the gaze that was staring at her from behind disappeared, and at the same time, her body regained its freedom of movement.
The moment the restrictions on Ruan Xihe's body disappeared, she turned around quickly.
But the night was pitch black, and all she could see was the tall tower standing steadily in the darkness.
Ruan Xihe knew that the person who had just stared at her was inside the tower.
But she didn't know who that person was or what he meant.
What is certain is that the man is definitely not a member of the Holy Maiden Church, otherwise there would be no need for him to let her go no matter what.
Ruan Xihe took a deep breath, tapped his toes lightly, picked up Linghu Zhou and disappeared on the spot.
Soon, she appeared in Gongzi Heng's room with Linghu Zhou.
At this time, Gongzi Heng had taken off his women's clothes and changed back into his own clothes. He was wearing a bamboo hat on his head and was preparing to go out in the late night when the dew was heavy.
Seeing Ruan Xihe suddenly appear in the room with a person in her hand, Gongzi Heng was so scared that the sword in his hand almost fell to the ground.
"Boss? Why did you come here suddenly?" He blinked, not quite sure what was going on.
"Borrow a place."
Ruan Xihe responded casually and threw Linghu Zhou onto the bed.
She sat on the edge of the bed, picked up the iron chain on Linghu Zhou's neck and began to study it.
Linghu Zhou was still unconscious. When he was thrown like this, his clothes flew to both sides of his body, revealing his chest and abdominal muscles as well as some scratches and kisses on his skin.
Gongzi Heng walked to the bedside, looked down, and saw this scene and the disgusting marks on Linghu Zhou's body.
When he saw the iron chain locked around Linghu Zhou's neck, he covered his eyes tactfully.
"Boss, how about you exercise some restraint?"
It was a dark and windy night, and the boss brought a tied man here. Plus, he was covered with marks, so Gongzi Heng naturally thought of something wrong.
However, when Gong Ziheng saw that the person on the bed had fainted, he naturally felt that it was his obligation to remind the boss to restrain himself.
Suddenly, Gongzi Heng's face changed as he thought of some issues regarding seniority and titles.
This guy doesn't look as powerful as him. If the boss really gets together with this guy, wouldn't he have to call this guy the boss?
He put his entire face close to Linghu Zhou's and began to examine him carefully.
Finally, he came to the conclusion that he really felt that the person lying on the bed was not in good condition!
"Boss, I think this guy is average looking and has an average body. There are many better fish in the sea. Why don't you..."
"boom--"
Ruan Xihe didn't even stand up.
She simply raised her hand and punched Gongzi Heng, sending him flying five meters away. Gongzi Heng fell on his buttocks.
"I brought him from the Grand Elder of the Saint Maiden Church."
Ruan Xihe's gaze was always on the chain in her hand, never moving away. She replied to Gongzi Heng without even raising her head.
She was looking for a way to open the chain without hurting Linghu Zhou.
At this time, Gong Ziheng stood up from the ground, rubbing his butt with one hand, and rubbing his beaten stomach with the other hand, with an embarrassed expression.
"So that's it..."
Gongzi Heng scratched his head with one hand, then rubbed his stomach, then rubbed his butt, his eyes glancing around, looking very busy.
Seeing that Ruan Xihe ignored him, Gongzi Heng happily returned to the bed.
He spoke solemnly, "But Boss, as someone who has been through this, there is one thing I still have to remind you of."
Hearing the words "as someone who has been through this", Ruan Xihe became interested.
"what's up?"
"You saved him. If he wakes up and says he can't repay you for saving his life, you must not agree to it, boss. Usually, such people are just coveting your power and want to use you as a backer to live a life of idleness and wait for death. You can't trust him."
Ruan Xihe: “…”
She rarely looked up and glanced at Gongzi Heng.
Gong Ziheng continued to express his views, "Besides, Boss, look at this guy's skinny arms and legs. You can tell at a glance that he has never done any work. If you were with him, he would definitely not do anything. I can't bear to see you get married and become his family's cattle and horses after marriage. We are going to do something big."
Ruan Xihe: “…”
"Why do you say that?" Ruan Xihe raised her eyebrows, somewhat surprised that Gongzi Heng's focus was here.
Because from what she had heard and her impression, Gongzi Heng had been with Jimo Qianyi since childhood, and she had never heard of any rumors about him having any love affairs, he was only good at fighting.
Otherwise, when they met for the first time, Gongzi Heng would have recognized at a glance that she was a woman disguised as a man during the admissions examination, instead of clamoring to compete with her to be the boss.
"Ah? Um...I..."
Gongzi Heng didn't expect that Ruan Xihe would actually ask him the reason. His eyes were vague and uncertain under the shadow of his bamboo hat. His hands pretended to be busy, scratching his head and putting his hands in his pockets.
When Ruan Xihe saw this, he immediately came to a conclusion in his mind.
She turned around and gave Gong Ziheng a standard professional sweet fake smile, "Tell the truth, I will punish you severely if you confess, and I will also punish you severely if you resist."
After he finished speaking, Ruan Xihe drew out the Sad Question Knife from space.
She pinched the handle of the knife between her fingertips and twirled it in her hand. The light shone on the blade, giving off a cold glow.
These cold lights flashed across Gongzi Heng's face little by little, making him blink.
"I said it, I said it!"
Gongzi Heng raised his hands in surrender at both sides of his body. He pouted his lips in defiance and answered honestly.
"I just don't want you to find someone weaker than me as your Taoist partner. Otherwise, if he is weaker than me, I will have to call him Old Master, which is too embarrassing for me. Besides, I think only someone stronger than me is worthy of you, or someone who can take a beating better than me."
"..."
And, boss...gong?
What is this called?
