However, faced with Xie Qi's sincere and unreserved words, Lu Xing was stunned for a moment.

He stared wide-eyed at Xie Qi, who looked so sincere, as if he couldn't believe what he was hearing. His face, which had been slightly pale from nervousness and anxiety, was now filled with astonishment, as if he had been frozen in time.

Although he had never had any contact with the bully before, he had already heard of this notorious and feared man from other people in the village.

But now, the scene before him was far beyond his expectations. The bully, who should have been arrogant and domineering, was now squatting in front of him so humbly, as if he had become a completely different person.

Lu Xing was full of doubts and uneasiness. Faced with such a sudden change, he was a little at a loss.

After a long inner struggle, he finally mustered up the courage, opened his mouth, and asked cautiously in a voice as thin as a mosquito: "Won't you hit me?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Xie Qi responded loudly without hesitation: "Of course!"

However, this overly loud and resolute answer frightened Lu Xingze so much that his whole body trembled violently.

Seeing Lu Xingze frightened like this, Xie Qi instantly realized his mistake and quickly said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I scared you. I'll speak softly, don't be afraid."

As he spoke, he frantically tried to comfort the frightened Lu Xingze, and couldn't help but think in his heart that if it weren't for that group of hateful scum, A Ze wouldn't have become so courageous.
