Chapter 151: You Are Blind
After briefly reporting today's battle situation to Shen Yang, Xie Chengzhi accompanied Luo Rui down from the city wall.
From a distance, Luo Rui saw Jiang Ran treating the wounds of the injured superhumans, and she calmly retracted her gaze.
"She seems to be different from before." Xie Chengzhi followed her line of sight and seemed to lament.
Different? Luo Rui stared at him with squinted eyes. "How's she different?"
Not noticing the change in his girlfriend's tone, Xie Chengzhi casually said, "She used to be very timid and afraid of seeing blood. She couldn't do anything, and wasn’t as efficient as she is now."
After saying that, he muttered softly, "She’s obviously a spoiled young lady, but she looks convincing acting like a professional."
Hearing her boyfriend's words, and not caring whether it was ridicule or praise, Luo Rui twisted his arm hard.
When Xie Chengzhi looked over in pain, she pouted. "Why, you realized that your ex-girlfriend has become virtuous and regret breaking up with her?"
Xie Chengzhi laughed and held her hand tightly. "What nonsense are you talking about? I just said it casually—she can’t hold a candle to you."
"You’re still comparing her with me?" Luo Rui had a smile in her eyes, but she admonished playfully, "I’m my own person. I don't need to compare myself with anyone."
"Yes, yes, my Ruirui is the best and most powerful. No one can compare with you," Xie Chengzhi coaxed his girlfriend and laughed softly. "How could a delicate lady like Jiang Ranran who sells her body and degenerates herself be qualified to compare with you?"
Before he finished speaking, something swept past in the diagonal direction with a sharp wind.
Out of the instinct of self-protection, he instinctively dodged to the side.
A steel pipe as thick as a wrist flew past his face and pierced the wall next to the two with a thud.
The staff squatting by the wall to rest was startled and jumped a few meters away like a rabbit.
"What's going on? What's going on? What a scare!"
The commotion here alarmed the people around, and soon, a crowd of onlookers gathered around.
At the handrail of the city wall stairs, the hood of his jacket covered the youth’s face, and his face couldn’t be seen clearly.
He flexed his wrist and shouted in an exaggerated tone with a trace of panic, "Sorry, my hand slipped. Sir, are you okay?"
He leaned on the railing, looking down at Xie Chengzhi, and grinned.
Having no impression of this youth at all, Xie Chengzhi looked at him coldly and said flatly, "I don't know how I offended you. Dude, you were clearly targeting me."
"Geez, I don't know what happened." The youth's voice was full of confusion. "I just heard a grown man saying bad things about a girl behind her back like those gossipers. I couldn't stand it, so my hand reacted on its own."
He let out a long sigh and said regretfully, "Fortunately, Sir, you reacted quickly. Otherwise, I'm afraid you won't be able to enjoy the pleasure of talking about people behind their backs in the future, haha."
It was obvious that the youth heard their conversation just now and got back at them for Jiang Ranran’s sake.
Luo Rui stared at him quietly and sneered. "Who are you?"
"Me?" The youth didn’t intend to reveal his identity. "I'm just a passerby who can’t stand injustice."
Luo Rui sneered. "You've already attacked us, yet you refuse to tell us your name. Why? Do you have unspeakable secrets ?"
"Young lady." The youth wasn’t old, but he spoke in a mature manner. "You insist on knowing my name so much. Are you obsessed with me?"
"You..." You shameless rascal! Who would be so blind to be obsessed with you?
"Please don't," Interrupting her, the youth laughed. "There are many beautiful women around me, and I really don’t fancy an ugly girl like you—although you’re a superhuman who’s good at sucking up to the Shen family, I prefer delicate ladies who are beautiful, gentle and kind. At least, they won't gossip behind people’s backs."
He was humiliating her.
Amid the lively discussions of the people around her, Luo Rui clenched her fists and her pretty face flushed beet red.
Xie Chengzhi hid his girlfriend behind him, and looked at the youth with a murderous look in his eyes. "Are you Jiang Ranran's friend?"
He said so much merely to stand up for Jiang Ranran. However, the youth looked unfamiliar, and didn't look like one of Si Xu's subordinates.
Could it be a guy who liked Jiang Ranran?
"Jiang Ranran? Who?" The youth looked confused. "Is she a beautiful, delicate lady? Is she prettier than the one next to you? If she’s prettier, you can introduce her to me."
Being repeatedly humiliated by his words, Luo Rui was furious. "You!"
Holding his lover's hand tightly, Xie Chengzhi said calmly, "Since you aren’t Jiang Ranran's friend, do you have any grudges with the Shen family?"
The youth sneered. "What grudges could I have with the Shen family? I’m just small fry. How could I possibly know those big shots in the base? Hah."
Xie Chengzhi sneered. "But what you said just now..."
"He merely thinks you’re blind and your eyes should be dug out since they’re useless."
The cold, emotionless voice drifted into the ears of everyone present.
The words were simple and blunt... Jiang Ran, who was hiding behind the crowd watching the commotion, slapped her forehead with her hand. Didn’t I tell him to rest at home? Why did he come out and wander around again...
The young man walked out slowly from behind the crowd, wearing a gray pullover and casual pants. He looked like an innocent and harmless college student who had just graduated.
However, as soon as he opened his mouth, the people around him were instantly disillusioned by his blunt words.
"I'm talking about you. Since you’re blind, I might as well gouge your eyes out."
As he said, the air current at his fingertips stirred, spinning into a sharp blade.
"I've been annoyed with you for a long time," Si Xu said, yawning. "Are you going to gouge your eyes out yourself or do you want me to do it?"
Being someone who had a grumpy mood when waking up, he explained with blunt words what was meant by "rivals were particularly jealous of each other".
This jerk was Jiang Ranran's ex-boyfriend. Although his girl wasn’t the original Jiang Ranran, Si Xu thought about how they threw her into the water without caring about her fate. If he hadn't been in a good mood and saved her, his girl would have drowned in the water.
Moreover, Xie Chengzhi and Jiang Ranran had broken up a long time ago, but he was still gossiping about her behind her back.
What a bastard.
And a blind bastard at that.
For such a person, it would be best to dig out his eyes, cut off his tongue and throw him out to feed the zombies.
With this thought in mind, Si Xu's eyes became murderous.
Faced with a murderous aura, Xie Chengzhi instinctively took a step back, and his expression changed slightly.
"Professor Si..." Luo Rui moved her lips, wanting to speak, but as soon as she opened her mouth, it seemed as if an invisible hand had gripped her neck, and she could no longer make a sound.
"You." Si Xu glanced at her and said seriously, "You’re ugly and mean-spirited. Don't you know that at all? How dare you compare with my Ranran?"
Luo Rui's throat was stuck and she couldn't make a sound. She just blinked and a tear slipped out of the corner of her eye.
"Wh-what did you do?" Noticing that his girlfriend wasn’t fine, Xie Chengzhi supported Luo Rui and glared at Si Xu. "Professor Si, don't you think you’ve gone overboard by bullying a girl for no reason?"
"It's not for no reason." Si Xu felt that this guy was stupid, so he explained it patiently, "You said bad things about Jiang Ran behind her back, so I want to teach you a lesson."
This guy actually explained it seriously... Jiang Ran didn't know whether to laugh or cry. She pushed away the people who were blocking her. "Excuse me, please make way..."
She ran to Si Xu and pretended that she had just arrived. "Si Xu, what happened?"
