Chapter 120 I'm the Protagonist No Matter Where I Go
Inside the rented room, Guo Xiang lay on the sofa, looking uneasy.
He's been feeling uneasy lately, like someone's following him.
He's been very careful lately, repeatedly trying various methods to probe, but hasn't found anyone following him.
Was he being too paranoid, or was the person following him just too sophisticated?
"It's all that damn person's fault. If it weren't for him, I wouldn't be hiding in this small place, living in seclusion and on the edge of my seat."
Guo Xiang cursed angrily.
The thought of that person made Guo Xiang shudder.
"This can't go on; the country is no longer safe."
The Xia family is too vigilant right now and can't do anything, so they should stay abroad for a while.
"Let's lay low for a while before coming back."
Once Guo Xiang made up his mind, he began packing his things.
This is just a temporary place to stay. I don't have much to take with me, so I packed a light backpack.
Guo Xiang slung his bag over his shoulder and booked a plane ticket as he walked out.
The next flight to an overseas destination is scheduled to depart in two hours, so he still has time and can make it there in time.
He opened the door, just as the person outside was about to knock.
Guo Xiang's pupils contracted slightly, and fear flashed in his eyes.
The first priority isn't confrontation, it's running.
He rushed into the house as fast as he could, heading straight for the window.
He quickly calculated where he could escape the fastest.
A bullet grazed his forehead, and a burning pain shot through him. He immediately stopped in his tracks.
They dared not move an inch.
This is a warning.
If he runs again,
The next shot hit him in the head.
The people at the door came in and took all of Guo Xiang's belongings.
Check all possible hiding places inside the house.
Only after confirming it was safe did they step aside.
Qiu Jing looked at Guo Xiang, who was sitting blankly on the sofa.
"Sit still."
"What do you want? Who sent you?"
Guo Xiang stared at the woman in front of him, and before Qiu Jing could answer, he said confidently.
"You're his people. I know you. You've been around him before?"
"Heh, he's always wanted to kill me. I knew I wouldn't escape so easily."
That explains how he managed to escape so easily.
Given that person's intelligence, it's impossible for them to do nothing.
Just as expected, he had always been under that person's control.
"Playing cat and mouse is really his favorite game; he's still just as wicked as ever."
Guo Xiang knew he couldn't escape.
He no longer felt the tension and excitement he had just felt, and relaxed back on the sofa.
He looked at Qiu Jing, who hadn't said a word but exuded a powerful aura.
"What does he want to do with me? Kill me?"
Qiu Jing stared at him without saying a word.
Guo Xiang met those eyes and knew he couldn't get any information out of them, so he anxiously fumbled with his fingers.
He hated this feeling.
The feeling of being powerless and at the mercy of others.
Guo Xiang didn't press the matter, and the others didn't say much either.
The room became so quiet that you could hear a pin drop.
Guo Xiang grew increasingly anxious.
Finally, I couldn't stand the oppressive atmosphere anymore.
"Kill me if you want. If I beg for mercy even once, I'm no hero."
But no matter how he called out, Qiu Jing didn't move.
Guo Xiang was so angry that he kept punching the sofa armrest.
"What exactly do you want to do? What exactly do you want to ask?"
The room remained quiet, and Guo Xiang became even more nervous upon seeing this scene.
He knew they hadn't moved; they must be waiting for someone.
There is only one person they can wait for.
Thinking of that person, Guo Xiang's hands trembled involuntarily.
Gritting his teeth, Guo Xiang suddenly stood up and rushed towards the window.
Qiu Jing reacted the instant he moved, kicking him in the back of the knee.
The second kick landed on Guo Xiang's back, pinning him down.
Guo Xiang struggled desperately, shouting, "Kill me! Kill me!"
Qiu Jing ignored his words and waved her hand.
Two people came up and forced the person back onto the sofa.
Guo Xiang shouted, telling them to kill him.
Footsteps came from the stairwell; someone was coming.
"What? You want to die? Perfect..."
Surrounded by the crowd, Zhou Ran stepped into the room.
Guo Xiang turned around abruptly upon hearing the sound, and upon meeting Zhou Ran's gaze, he flinched.
Hearing Zhou Ran continue slowly.
"I'm all about methods, I don't do things like murder and arson."
Guo Xiang opened his eyes wide in terror, his body trembling uncontrollably.
"Let him go."
Zhou Ran waved her hand, and Qiu Jing led her people out, closing the door behind them.
Only Zhou Ran and Xia Chenggan, who had come with them and hadn't moved, remained in the room.
Xia Chenggan's eyes were fixed on Zhou Ran.
His eyes were filled with infatuation, as if he had met his muse.
They looked at it like a precious treasure, with unwavering focus, fascination, and unblinking eyes.
From the moment she entered the room, Zhou Ran's demeanor changed completely.
It has become dangerous, extremely dangerous.
It's like a danger that could lead to utter ruin if you just glance at it.
Yet it was so captivating that Xia Chenggan couldn't help but look at it again and again.
I don't want to look away for even a second.
An urge arose within me to dismember him, tear him apart, and devour him piece by piece.
Most people would have run away in fear if they were stared at like that.
Zhou Ran was calm and at ease, completely relaxed, without any emotional fluctuations.
Xia Chenggan knew that this person was wary of him.
That's really interesting, extremely interesting.
Xia Chenggan licked his lips, wanting to take a bite.
Zhou Ran slapped away the large head that was close to her neck.
He only sat down on the chair after stopping Xia Chenggan from going berserk and biting people.
Seeing Guo Xiang still trembling on the other side, he chuckled softly.
"What? Are you afraid of me?"
"Um."
Zhou Ran continued, "Weren't you very bold before? You caused so much trouble and gave me a lot of trouble."
Guo Xiang waved his hands and shook his head frantically, "No, no, I didn't want to."
He knelt down with a thud and desperately kowtowed, begging for mercy.
"Please, please kill me, kill me, please!"
Zhou Ran watched him beg for mercy with great interest.
"Didn't you say you wanted me to die a horrible death and suffer endless torment for all eternity? Is this all?"
Guo Xiang collapsed to the ground, his eyes filled with terror, his mouth opened but he couldn't utter a single word.
"You want to know how I knew that?"
Guo Xiang stared at Zhou Ran, not daring to move, his eyes brimming with terror, his heart pounding wildly.
His adrenaline surged, propelling his body forward and preventing him from collapsing.
"The first time I saw you." Zhou Ran pointed to her eyes.
"You know, I have eyes that can see through people's hearts. I can tell at a glance whether someone is a human or a ghost."
Zhou Ran leaned forward slightly.
"He Xin, how can you still be so foolish!"
"I was wrong, brother, brother, please forgive me, please forgive me!"
Guo Xiang, now known as He Xin, rushed over, trying to grab Zhou Ran's leg and beg for mercy.
Xia Chenggan kicked the man away while pulling Zhou Ran into his arms.
He Xin was warned, "You are not allowed to touch my men!"
Zhou Ran didn't struggle, leaning against Xia Chenggan's chest and looking at He Xin.
"Your portrayal of Guo Xiang was terrible. I told you long ago, if you're stupid, just behave yourself and don't try to be clever. What's wrong with your hearing?"
Guo Xiang clutched his chest; his ribs were broken.
The excruciating pain rendered him speechless, leaving him only able to stare blankly at Zhou Ran.
Those deep, dark eyes were his nightmare for two lifetimes.
His acquaintance with Ning Rui was an accident.
While he was working, he accidentally encountered Ning Rui, who was being chased and hiding.
Looking at Ning Rui squatting in the trash can.
He Xin knew that this girl was not simple.
He stepped in to help, covering up Ning Rui's traces and secretly bringing her home.
Ning Rui has a bit of a spoiled temper, but she is simple-minded.
In that filthy world, to have such a temperament.
They must have been protected and pampered growing up.
He Xin lacks both ability and ruthlessness, making life difficult for him in this world.
But he was still a bit clever, knowing that this was a hard-won opportunity.
Like the "phoenix man" in every novel.
He quickly won Ning Rui's heart, making her fall deeply in love with him and unable to extricate herself.
Just as he was basking in his own glory, waiting to go home with Ning Rui and begin his glorious new life...
He saw those eyes, eyes that held the starry sky and the boundless universe, but devoid of any human warmth.
Under those eyes, his filth had nowhere to hide.
Fear, anxiety, low self-esteem, and surging negative emotions nearly overwhelmed He Xin.
In the end, Ning Rui helped him by calling the person with the eyes "brother" and begging him to agree to marry him.
When He Xin thought he was going to die.
The owner of those eyes agreed, like a doting older brother who couldn't refuse any of his younger sister's requests.
At the time, he said, "If you're stupid, just behave yourself and don't try to be clever. Just try to make Ning Rui happy."
He Xin still remembers that day.
From that day on, those eyes took root in his dreams, growing into a magnificent carnivorous flower.
He even had a slightly wicked thought.
I really want to see if such eyes will be tainted by worldly dust.
Just as the assessment said, he only has petty cleverness.
All his painstakingly designed plans were easily thwarted.
He decided to take advantage of Ning Rui.
I saw those eyes the next day.
He said, "You deserve to die, Rui Rui. It's so hard to keep you alive."
He experienced the most painful period of his life.
He wants to die, but he can't, so he just lives such a pathetic life.
It turns out that sometimes being alive is a million times more terrifying than being dead.
Even after he came to this world, he could still occasionally feel pain in his body.
That wasn't physical pain; it was pain from the soul.
The pain was excruciating, inch by inch, from bone marrow to flesh.
With each increase in pain, those eyes became more deeply etched into my mind.
Xia Chenggan suddenly attacked and gouged out He Xin's eyes.
"I hate the look in your eyes. I told you he's mine. You're filthy!"
He Xin roared in pain, his hand that had been covering his chest now covering his face.
Zhou Ran watched the bloody scene with a calm expression.
Xia Chenggan looked at Zhou Ran.
Are you angry?
Why should I be angry?
Zhou Ran looked at Xia Chenggan with a puzzled expression, wondering why he asked that.
Xia Chenggan said, feeling wronged.
“You were angry, so I didn’t let you ask before I started hitting you.”
Zhou Ran nodded. "You knew why you still attacked?"
"I hate the way he looks at you, you're mine!"
Zhou Ran slapped Xia Chenggan across the face.
"I'll go crazy later; there'll be a time when I need your help." Author's note: Thanks to my mentor 9492239 (9492239) for their support! For more exciting content, please leave a message for this book on Liancheng Reading.
