Chapter 120: Bully the weak and afraid of the strong
Everyone subconsciously stepped back and gathered together, feeling that this would make them safer.
Wei Mingliang, who was about to be beaten to death and then go to see his parents, slowly opened his eyes and vaguely saw a familiar figure walking towards him.
"Sister Xu?"
Xu Sichen stood beside him, looking down at him, and said with dissatisfaction: "Where is the knife I gave you? Why don't you use it?"
Just one cold question made Wei Mingliang, who had lost all hope, have tears in his eyes in an instant.
He struggled to get up, sat down in the corner, and took out the knife in his arms.
"Xiao Xu, what are you doing? Wei Mingliang is the murderer who killed the entire Chen family. Do you still want to protect such a devil?" An elderly man, self-proclaimed virtuous and respected, admonished Xu Sichen: "If this happened in the past, he would have been arrested and shot!"
"Then why did he kill people? Do you know?" Xu Sichen smiled sarcastically, then said, "I remember it was you who forced them to take in the Chen family's vampires."
The old man was a little annoyed: "No matter what, killing someone means paying with your life!"
Xu Sichen smiled and said, "That's right, murder must be punished! You murderers who killed Wei Mingliang's parents, why don't you set an example first?"
The old man angrily said, "What nonsense are you talking about? Little girl, I know you are powerful, but you can't just accuse others with your empty words."
Xu Sichen: "Oh, have you forgotten how the Wei family took in the Chen family's vampires? If you don't remember, I'll help you recall it!"
"I remember when I said that the cuckoo was occupying the magpie's nest, you said that I was too cruel. It's fine if you don't agree, but how can you stop others from helping?" Xu Sichen looked at the old man and said word by word.
After saying that, he turned to the other middle-aged woman and said, "When Wei Mingliang refused, you were the one who said that kids these days are more selfish than each other and don't have the Lei Feng spirit of your generation. It's simply a sign of moral decline."
"It was you who persuaded Wei Mingliang's mother again, saying that you have been neighbors for so many years and you know her best. Who wouldn't say good things about her when they meet her? She can't let me influence her."
"You were the one who persuaded Wei Mingliang's father, saying that with so many people watching, if they refused to leave, you would definitely not stand idly by."
Xu Sichen had a very good memory and could almost perfectly reproduce every word they said at that time.
Those whose names were called lowered their heads guiltily.
Xu Sichen sneered: "In the end, they refused to leave. Did you help? They killed his parents, why didn't you try to catch the murderer? Now you are dealing with a minor. You are so quick."
Someone complained: "We just tried to persuade them a few times, they are just stupid..."
Suddenly, with a "whoosh", a crossbow arrow passed by the man's head.
The man immediately collapsed to the ground in fear, and the people present turned pale with fright, not daring to say another word.
"Haha, a bunch of bullies! Don't you think Wei Mingliang is just a kid and easy to deal with? If you kill him, you can occupy their house?" Xu Sichen said with disdain.
Everyone who was hit by what was said fell silent immediately.
During the flood and freezing period, every family had three or five relatives coming to seek refuge, so that the originally spacious homes became overcrowded.
Almost as soon as they learned that the Chen family was extinct, their first reaction was the Wei family's house.
Xu Sichen didn't bother to look at their greedy faces. He turned around and pulled Wei Mingliang. Seeing that Wei Mingliang's eyes were about to cry, he coldly scolded him, "Remember, if anyone dares to hurt you, you will return the favor with a knife double. Tears are useless."
Wei Mingliang gritted his teeth and nodded firmly.
"Sister Xu, be careful!" Wei Mingliang shouted when he saw the scene behind him.
He wanted to push Xu Sichen away, but unexpectedly Xu Sichen was faster than him.
Without even looking back, he picked up the crossbow in his hand and shot backwards.
With a "swish", the sound of a sharp arrow piercing through flesh was heard.
Xu Sichen turned around and saw Wu Dawei grabbing Qian Li and blocking him, and was shot in the heart by a sharp arrow.
Qian Li's eyes were about to burst, and she turned to look at Wu Dawei: "Why, why?"
Maybe she would never believe that her husband, who had always been cowardly, would use her as a shield.
Wu Dawei was so frightened that he stammered, "I, I didn't mean it, Lili, I really didn't mean it..."
Xu Sichen had no sympathy for Qian Li. She looked at Wu Dawei and said coldly, "You want to kill me?"
Hearing this voice, Wu Dawei was so frightened that he didn't care about Qian Li in his arms and turned around to run away.
But before he could run a few steps, a sharp arrow pierced his back.
The surroundings suddenly became quiet, and everyone huddled tightly in the corner, not daring to move an inch.
Compared with their previous behavior of shouting and killing Wei Mingliang, it was extremely ironic.
"Remember, this house is mine! If you move in, you will be responsible for the consequences!" After Xu Sichen said this, he took Wei Mingliang back to the 12th floor.
As soon as he entered the house, Wei Mingliang, who was cold all over, felt a burst of warmth blowing towards him.
He only felt that his heart and body were warm.
Xu Sichen left Wei Mingliang there and went into the room on his own.
He came out again with a pile of men's clothes in his hand, a huge pile from inside to outside.
"It's so dirty. Go to the bathroom and wash yourself before coming out." Xu Sichen's voice was still indifferent, without any comfort or pity.
Wei Mingliang took the clothes and went into the bathroom almost at the same time.
Not long after, a suppressed cry came from the bathroom.
The crying became louder and louder until it finally became a loud howling.
Nearly an hour passed before Wei Mingliang finally came out of the bathroom reluctantly.
He was barefoot, holding the corners of his clothes with both hands, looking uneasy, and stood in front of Xu Sichen like a young wife.
Xu Sichen looked him up and down. Compared with the previous dark appearance where the face could hardly be seen, the young man now was about 1.7 meters tall and fair-skinned. Although there were many scars on his face, he was still handsome.
"Not bad, I finally look like a human being."
Xu Sichen rarely made a joke, but Wei Mingliang's eyes instantly turned red.
He knelt down with a plop and kowtowed three times to Xu Sichen.
Then he choked up and said, "Sister Xu, thank you, thank you for saving me. From now on, can I always follow you? I'll do anything you ask me to do!"
Xu Sichen smiled and said, "Oh, what can you do?"
"I, I..." Wei Mingliang stuttered nervously, racking his brains to say, "I can wash clothes and cook, find supplies for my sister, and I can also warm——!"
He suddenly covered his mouth with his hands at the last sentence and lowered his head in annoyance.
