Chapter 281, He is drunk
The heavy rain has not stopped and the wind is rustling.
The moment she fell into his arms, the heavy rain was isolated from the outside. She heard his question and said helplessly: "I'll take care of a small matter."
"Oh." He replied sullenly, then asked, "Is it settled?"
"Yeah, it's taken care of." Jiang Ran looked up from his embrace, seeing his face still flushed slightly, and asked him softly, "Si Xu, why did you come here?"
He was like a wronged cat, his cheek pressed against hers, rubbing gently. After a long moment, he let go of her and complained, "I woke up and you weren't in the room, so I had no choice but to come out to look for you. And you actually left me here to play around with this stranger!"
He felt very aggrieved, with red at the corners of his eyes, and when he looked at Zhang Minxin, there was murderous intent in his eyes.
From his tone and demeanor, Jiang Ran had some guesses in her mind, and tentatively asked, "Si Xu, are you still drunk?"
He had bad manners when he was drunk. Gu Yunqing said that he used to pick anyone to twist the dough into a dough twist after getting drunk. But now he wouldn't twist the dough twist when he was drunk, but he would only fall asleep when she coaxed him.
He rarely acted like a spoiled brat in front of others, especially strangers. The look on his face now indicated that he was probably still drunk.
Sure enough, upon hearing Jiang Ran's question, Si Xu frowned, clearly unhappy: "I'm not drunk!"
Well, he still knows how to defend himself, it seems his brain is still functioning normally. He denies that he is drunk, it seems he is still drunk.
After Jiang Ran came to two conclusions, she coaxed him: "Okay, you're not drunk, I was wrong~"
He always felt that there was a hint of perfunctoriness and disgust in the girl's words. When Si Xu woke up and found that he had been abandoned, his anger suddenly rose up and burned more and more fiercely in the pouring rain.
I want to find someone to twist the dough for me.
Excluding the soft and tender little girl in his arms, his gaze passed through the rain curtain and fell on the group of people not far away.
Well, those guys seem to be psychics as well. Although none of them are particularly powerful, if he finds one with a higher level of psychic ability, it would be enough for him to beat up.
His eyes were fixed on Zhang Minxin, who had a relatively high level of supernatural powers: This guy looked okay, and his body was pretty strong, so he shouldn't die if he was twisted a couple of times - Jiang Ran didn't like him killing people casually, and if he killed that guy, Jiang Ran would be unhappy.
The man's eyes were unfriendly, and Zhang Minxin naturally noticed it.
Stared at by the other party's cold gaze, he unconsciously took two steps back, licked his lips, and became fully alert.
Before he approached, he had already seen Pei Xiao and the metal-type mutant beside him. The Zhang family and the Pei family were not on good terms, so he deliberately ignored Pei Xiao. Knowing that the woman who attacked the Shi family was a friend brought back by Pei Xiao, he deliberately made trouble for Jiang Ran just to make things difficult for Pei Xiao.
He was confident that he could capture Jiang Ran, and he had even thought of a reason to do so—he knew that if the woman was captured, Pei Xiao would definitely not sit idly by.
When that time comes, he will definitely make things difficult for this arrogant young master of the Pei family, so as to relieve the resentment of being suppressed by him over the years.
He had a good plan, but he didn't expect that someone would intervene in the middle.
This new man must be the Professor Si mentioned in the file—a weapon created by the Xiling Laboratory, a high-level dual-element psychic, a murderer and perpetrator of countless evil deeds. Unable to endure the Xiling Base any longer, he was forced to leave and wander the world...
Judging from his attack just now, this Professor Si should have water and space abilities - these two abilities are not common offensive abilities. If it were someone else, he wouldn't even take a second look.
But when he looked at the wounded team members and thought about the force of the ice blade hitting the iron plate, he knew that they had encountered a strong enemy today.
"Haha, he can actually use water-based abilities to this extent..." Zhang Minxin sighed with a faint smile, "I can only say that he is worthy of being a monster developed in a laboratory."
Amidst the patter of rain, Jiang Ran didn't hear the man's low, mocking words, but Si Xu took every word in. He tilted his head, thoughtfully asking, "Are you envious?"
Zhang Minxin: “?” How did you tell that he was envious?
Si Xu looked him over and shook his head: "There's no point in being envious - you're too ugly and stupid, and your qualifications are not good enough. The lab won't want you."
The implication is that he is the kind of inferior guy that no one would want even if he were offered to them.
Zhang Minxin: “…”
Pei Xiao, who was watching the man's face turn from white to red, and then from red to black, twitched his lips twice as he hid in a small alley around the corner. He asked Chu Yuan seriously, "Is Si Xu deliberately mocking him or..."
"You misunderstood." Chu Yuan, accustomed to Si Xu's way of speaking, said calmly, "Seventh Brother always likes to tell the truth."
Of course, if you speak too honestly, it will sound like sarcasm to some people.
Zhang Minxin was born into the wealthy Zhang family of Dongchao. He is the only son in the family and has been raised with the utmost care. How could anyone dare to speak to him like this?
The key point is, after the man finished speaking, the little girl next to him stared at him seriously for a while, then nodded vigorously to agree with him: "The lab definitely won't want it!"
Zhang Minxin clenched his fists and was about to retort when the young man suddenly walked towards him: "Jiang Ran, he bullied you, I will teach him a lesson for you."
Jiang Ran, who had been led by him for two steps, realized it belatedly: "Huh?" A lesson? He wouldn't...
…
A group brawl broke out at the East City Gate. More precisely, one person assaulted a group of psychics. Although both sides were quickly disbanded, many psychics were injured, the most seriously injured of whom was Zhang Minxin, the captain of the fifth team.
When Pei Qing arrived at the East City Gate, the fight had already come to an end.
The victims were lying on the ground, groaning and screaming in pain.
The defendant sat on the side of the road with his head drooped, like a big cat that had just woken up, and the little girl squatting beside him was still coaxing him in a soft voice.
I don’t know what he said, but the little girl looked around like a thief, and thinking that no one was paying attention, she quickly leaned over and kissed him on the cheek.
The big cat was coaxed into happiness, and looked lazy and joyful.
Pei Qing: “…”
Secretary Kim followed him and said, "...Oh, this young couple is really just thinking about killing dogs all day long."
The Patriarch of the Pei family, feeling inexplicably implied, glanced silently at his secretary. His half-smile made the secretary feel a chill on the back of his neck, and he dared not say anything more.
After comforting Si Xu, Jiang Ran walked up to Pei Qing and glanced at the ground. He said awkwardly, "Pei Shuai, I'm so sorry. Si Xu was drunk tonight and didn't use any caution. Look at these people..."
Pei Qing: "..." They fell to the ground. Didn't he use too much force?
Secretary Jin added at the right time: "Boss, they only have superficial injuries and will be fine after a day or two of rest." It can be seen that Professor Si did show mercy.
Jiang Ran nodded: "They wanted to arrest me without any reason. Si Xu had to hurt them to protect me..."
Pei Qing had a good impression of the little girl, so he asked gently, "Why did they arrest you?"
"I don't know." Jiang Ran blinked innocently. "Maybe their boss has a good relationship with the Shi family and can't bear to see me teaching them a lesson, so he wants to capture me to curry favor with Shi Yuji?"
Pei Qing frowned.
Secretary Jin: “…” Oh no, Miss Jiang “accidentally” said something terrible again.
