“What’s wrong with you?”
Seeing Zhou Suyun’s pained expression, Yang Lu asked with genuine concern. No matter what, Zhou Suyun was his woman now, and seeing her in pain didn’t make him happy either. Could he have slapped her too hard?
“It’s… nothing, just a woman’s usual issue. I’ll be fine with a little rest.”
Hearing his concern, Zhou Suyun felt a warmth in her heart. This man, despite his dominant exterior, could be very gentle. But her condition wasn’t something he could fix. It wasn’t serious, but she had seen countless doctors to no avail and had eventually given up.
“A usual issue, huh?”
Yang Lu thought for a moment, then understood what she meant. After her father’s death, she had been deeply traumatized, leaving her with a chronic ailment. Although it wasn’t severe, it was notoriously hard to treat with regular medicine. As for Zhao Ritian, he’d helped her with special massage techniques, both healing her and, well, making her fall for him.
Yang Lu smiled, feeling pleased with himself. Looks like that reward will come in handy!
“I can fix that.” He said confidently.
“You can? Really?” Zhou Suyun looked at him in surprise. Was he serious? Judging by his sincere expression, it didn’t seem like he was joking. Could he actually know how to treat her?
“Use this—it has miraculous effects. I guarantee it’ll make you feel as good as new!”
Yang Lu pulled out the “Miraculous Nursing Pad” he’d received from the system. According to the description, this item offered immense benefits for women. Surely it could cure her problem too.
“Don’t mess around! How could this thing help?”
Zhou Suyun had been inclined to believe him, given all the surprises he’d brought into her life. But seeing him produce a feminine pad and tout it as a miracle cure? She had her doubts.
Could he have fallen for some scam?
“Are you questioning me? Put it on now, understand?”
“N-no, I wouldn’t dare. I’ll put it on right away.”
Startled by his stern tone, Zhou Suyun felt a pang of fear. Seeing him upset made her anxious. She quickly grabbed the pad and headed to the restroom to put it on. Visit novelping . com for the full chapter.
But before she could make it there, a series of cars suddenly pulled into the area.
One after another, fierce-looking men stepped out, their eyes fixed on Yang Lu. If you knew these men, you’d recognize them as top figures in Dragon City’s underground world. Their purpose today was singular: to fulfill the bounty Zhou Suyun had placed on him.
Who would’ve thought this guy had the guts to kidnap Zhou Suyun? Today, nearly a hundred elite fighters from Dragon City had gathered. Even if he had wings, he wouldn’t escape.
“Kid, we’ve finally found you!”
“Ms. Zhou, don’t worry, we’ll take care of this guy!”
“After today, he’ll be nothing but a memory!”
The men were eager to take down Yang Lu. Whoever could finish him off would fulfill Zhou Suyun’s bounty, bringing unimaginable rewards. They were infuriated by his arrogant demeanor. Even though they’d surrounded him, he stood there with his arms crossed, looking completely unimpressed. His lack of fear was downright irritating.
What gave this guy the nerve to act so smug? One of the men, a bald-headed brute, couldn’t hold back any longer.
“Brat, prepare to die!”
He lunged at Yang Lu, but the others scowled, realizing this guy was trying to claim the bounty for himself. They began moving in, ready to act.
But the next moment, something unexpected happened.
Smack!
“Jade-Faced Demoness, what are you doing?!”
Just as the bald thug reached Yang Lu, ready to strike, Zhou Suyun slapped him across the face. The thug stood there, stunned.
Was she insane? He was here to save her, and she slapped him?
If she weren’t who she was, he would have slapped her right back.
Zhou Suyun, looking coldly at the thug, said, “You’re asking what I’m doing? I should be asking you that!”
“What I’m doing? I’m saving you! I was just about to kill this guy and fulfill the bounty!” The thug was incredulous, shouting back in frustration. Was she out of her mind?
Zhou Suyun’s voice was icy. Enjoying the story? Read on at g.com.
“Yang Lu is my man. Anyone who dares to kill him is my enemy.”
“And as the Jade-Faced Demoness, I won’t spare a single one of them!”
“Did you hear me?!”
Clinging to Yang Lu’s arm, she spoke with unrestrained authority. Yang Lu had completely won her over. At this moment, he was hers, and she wasn’t letting anyone touch him.
Witnessing this, Yang Lu inwardly offered a moment of silence for Zhao Ritian.
‘Zhao Ritian, my friend, this scene was supposed to be yours, but, well, I’ll gladly take it now. Being the man of the Jade-Faced Demoness isn’t half bad. Look at these guys—every one of them wants to kill me. Those are looks of pure envy!’
‘And why envy me? Because I’m exceptional, that’s why!’
“What?!”
“The Jade-Faced Demoness’s man?”
“This has to be a joke!”
Zhou Suyun’s words sent shockwaves through the crowd. Everyone knew her reputation as a leader in Dragon City’s underworld. Many men had long harbored hopes for her, only to vanish without a trace. She had publicly declared that anyone who pursued her would face her wrath.
But now she was openly admitting it herself? And why place a bounty on him if he was her man?
“Zhou Suyun, are you toying with us?”
“You think placing a bounty is some kind of joke?”
The bald thug covered his slapped cheek, anger flashing in his eyes. No way was he going to let her slap him without retaliation!
