78: Chapter 77, A Twist of Fate!

Li Xue, perched on Fang Yi’s shoulders, was trying hard to climb over the enclosure wall, yet no matter how she gritted her teeth, she just couldn’t make it over, and her face instantly revealed her struggle.

No way, she absolutely couldn’t let this guy look down on her!

Li Xue cared greatly about face-saving, and with that thought in mind, she mustered all her strength as if she were drawing on her very last reserves, took a deep breath, and tried to climb over again.

However, whether it was because she applied too much force this time and caused a recoil, Li Xue’s body suddenly became unsteady and she fell backwards.

And Fang Yi, who had just been lamenting ‘why was she wearing pants instead of a skirt,’ also saw this.

He was quick-eyed and nimble-handed, immediately stood up, and caught Li Xue by her waist.

(Deleted!)

Fang Yi deliberated on his wording and said, “This…

I didn’t do it on purpose.”

Li Xue squinted her eyes slightly, “You did it intentionally?”

Fang Yi replied, “No.” If I really did it intentionally, I’d surely still be taking advantage of you right now.

Li Xue said, “As long as it wasn’t intentional, put me down now.”

Fang Yi hadn’t expected the girl to be so easygoing, and said, “Lady Bai, it’s not yet okay to put you down; let’s leave it like this, I’ll help you over.”

Li Xue was taken aback, unsure of what Fang Yi meant.

The next moment, Fang Yi lifted her up, and seeing that they were nearly scaling the wall, Li Xue was overjoyed.

For a moment, she even forgot about Fang Yi’s harassment and taking advantage of her.

Li Xue climbed over, and immediately after, Fang Yi followed, as agile as a spry, swift monkey, and the one-meter-fifty-six high wall posed no challenge to him at all.

Fang Yi landed next to Li Xue and looked around at their surroundings.

This place was a construction site, but there didn’t seem to be any workers around.

“You…

you took advantage of me just now,” Li Xue suddenly said.

Uh…

Your neural reflex arc is too long.

Fang Yi took out a cigarette, lit one, and after exhaling a puff, he said, “What just happened was an unintentional mistake.

Look, you made it over, right?

We should focus on the outcome, not the process.”

Li Xue pondered and said, “You seem to make some sense there.”

Fang Yi felt a bit remorseful; this girl was just too gullible.

“What should we do next, Lady Bai?” Fang Yi completely respected Li Xue’s wishes.

Li Xue pondered again, her dark brows slightly furrowed in deep thought, as if she was really contemplating a strategy!

The next moment, Li Xue said, “Straight to the den!”

“Alright!” Fang Yi immediately echoed.

Just that…

Straight to the den?

Why does this phrase seem to evoke unsavory thoughts?

…

…

Li Hei stood at the entrance of the construction site, tossing away a cigarette butt and lighting another within a few minutes.

He absentmindedly smoked, his eyes intently fixed on the woman by the tricycle stand across from the construction site.

Li Hei felt like a beast inside him wanted to burst out of its cage.

Sweat beads the size of beans formed on his forehead; he seemed to be enduring, yet as if he couldn’t contain himself…

After a while, Li Hei furiously crushed his cigarette underfoot.

“I haven’t had meat in a month!

I can’t take it anymore!”

Li Hei strode towards Xia Ziqi on the other side, his eyes filled with ravenous desire, incredibly intense, while Xia Ziqi was busy with her work, unaware of someone approaching her.

…

“Actually…

I think what you’re doing is completely unnecessary,” Fang Yi sincerely said.

At that moment, they were wandering around the construction site.

When encountering workers, before Fang Yi could create a diversion, Li Xue had already swiftly hidden behind an obstacle.

But there would always be times when there were no obstacles to hide behind, and Li Xue ended up hiding behind Fang Yi.

Fang Yi was utterly clueless about what the girl was thinking.

Lady, you’re just fooling yourself!

A few passersby workers caught sight of them; they just looked a few extra times, particularly at Li Xue—they were on a construction site full of men, how could they not gaze at a beauty?

As the laborers walked away, Li Xue came out from behind Fang Yi somewhat sullenly, her cheeks slightly reddened, and awkwardly said, “I…”

“I understand.”

“Understand what!

I just didn’t want to expose my identity,” Li Xue said.

“It’s different with you; you’re just an ordinary citizen.

With your plain look, they definitely wouldn’t think you’re a threat.”

Fang Yi said, “But they have already seen you.” The implication was, you’ve already blown your cover.

A shadow of self-doubt crossed Li Xue’s pretty face, then immediately, she said, “Chill, chill, all these are trivial matters, everything is within my expectations, stop dawdling, let’s get to work.”

Fang Yi was both amused and concluded that this girl did have rather thick skin.

He didn’t know what the next course of action was, but perhaps struck by a whim, Li Xue wanted Fang Yi to knock out a worker and then ask for directions.

You’ve watched way too many martial arts dramas!

Fang Yi thought to himself, and just when he saw a laborer coming their way, Fang Yi approached and took out a hundred bucks, and the worker followed Fang Yi.

“Ask away, I will definitely tell you everything I know—I’m very honest,” the worker said, of course, honesty founded upon that hundred bucks.

“One moment.”

Li Xue reached behind her into her back pocket, quickly took out a photo, and showed it to the worker, saying, “Have you seen this person?”

The worker was suddenly astonished and exclaimed, “That…

that’s Brother Hei!”

“Brother Hei?”

“Yes, the one with a scar on his face, looks really scary,” the worker said.

Originally Fang Yi had been standing aside doing nothing, letting Li Xue ask the questions.

But after hearing the word ‘scar’, his expression changed, and he furrowed his brows, snatching the photo from Li Xue’s hand.

Li Xue was a bit annoyed, yet Fang Yi held up the photo to her, and said in a stern tone, “Is this the man you are after?”

Li Xue was somewhat puzzled by Fang Yi’s reaction, but still nodded and said uncertainly, “Yes, that’s him.

What about it?”

Fang Yi didn’t answer but turned to the worker and asked, “Where is this Brother Hei right now?”

The worker replied, “I don’t know, I saw him having lunch with someone just now.

Oh, right, I saw him standing by the construction site entrance, seemed like he was looking at a woman.

Come to think of it, that woman was really pretty.”

Fang Yi’s heart sank, and he said to Li Xue, “You get out of here by yourself!” Without waiting for Li Xue to respond, Fang Yi, with a grim expression, had already dashed toward the construction site exit.

Let nothing be wrong, let there be nothing wrong!

Fang Yi roared internally.
