Chapter 647: Chapter 647 Counterattack
"Yo, old man, what do you think you’re doing? Trying to run? ’Cause you got fancy meddling in shit that’s none of your business! What do you think we dragged you back for, huh? Just wait, you’ll get what’s coming to you soon enough." The man cursed and swore as he walked up behind Bai Xiao, followed by a flurry of punches and kicks.
There were also the old man’s groans. Bai Xiao now fully understood that this elderly gent must have been dragged into this mess because of her.
It must have been when she was being hit over the head, the old man saw and tried to help, which got him caught and brought back with her.
She forcefully shifted the chair, and finally, the grating friction between the chair and the floor startled the man.
"Oh, this one’s awake too!"
The man seemed to be standing in front of her, and then the blindfold covering her eyes was ripped off.
The dim light was so harsh that it pained her eyes. Bai Xiao quickly shut them and slowly accustomed herself to the light.
"Well, well, you’re awake? Good, saves me the trouble of having to splash you with cold water. You sure are pretty; don’t worry, me and the boys will take real ’good care’ of you soon." The man’s lecherous eyes rudely scanned Bai Xiao’s entire body.
Their intentions for later were painfully clear.
Bai Xiao coldly watched the man in front of her. With curly hair and probably not more than twenty, wearing bell-bottoms, a floral shirt, with wayfarer sunglasses tucked into his shirt pocket, he looked every bit the petty street thug.
"What are you looking at? You think you can intimidate me with your stare? It’s your bad luck that you’re so damn attractive and managed to piss off someone you shouldn’t have. Otherwise, why would we brothers care about who you are?" The curly-haired man boasted, his grimy hands reaching out toward Bai Xiao’s face, trying to touch her cheek.
"This skin’s so smooth and slippery, just like a peeled egg, truly top-notch. Don’t worry, after the boss has his turn, all of us brothers will take good care of you. Let me have a feel first, to sate my craving."
As he spoke, that filthy paw of his reached directly for Bai Xiao’s chest.
"You bastard, what do you think you’re doing? If you want to pick on someone, come at me, you old fart! What kind of skill is it to bully a young girl? I’m telling you, you’re committing a crime, and if you get caught, you’ll face a firing squad," the old man’s yelling came from behind, loud enough to nearly deafen the curly-haired man.
All of his attention was broken, and Curly clenched his fist in rage, "You old geezer, you’re asking for it. Since it’s a firing squad you mention, I’ll send you off first to spare me your attempts to ruin my fun."
The moment he took a step forward, Curly’s knee hadn’t even straightened when suddenly, some hard, heavy object struck his back, pushing him to the ground and thwarting his further intentions.
In an instant, several things happened at once, so fast that he couldn’t react at all.
A pair of legs hooked his own and held them tight. A hand covered his mouth with such force his head was bent backward, and a solid arm locked around his throat.
In just the blink of an eye, Curly was left completely immobilized. 𝓷ℴ𝓿𝓅𝓊𝒷.𝓬𝓸𝓂
"Make one more move, make one sound, and I’ll snap your throat."
The voice was as cold as it was threatening.
Although there were only a few words, spoken so softly Curly could barely hear them, he clearly understood their meaning. The arm choking his windpipe said it all. He was pinned to the ground, unable to raise a hand to defend himself.
Who the hell is this?
