Yellow-Haired Man and Long Hair Man wore smug and mocking expressions, completely disregarding the dark look on Gu Chenan's face behind them.
Since Gu Chenan agreed to their exorbitant compensation, it indicated that he was the type to avoid conflicts and seek peace. If that was the case, wouldn't it be a good opportunity to humiliate them both thoroughly?
But they were wrong. Gu Chenan was never one to avoid conflicts. His previous actions were merely to quickly take Hoshino Kannon out of the police station, and twenty thousand yuan was nothing more than pocket change for him now.
However, this did not mean he was afraid of trouble.
In the midst of Yellow-Haired Man and Long Hair Man's mockery, Gu Chenan silently led Hoshino Kannon's hand all the way to the roadside.
Meanwhile, the two men were whispering something, and although Gu Chenan couldn't hear them, he could tell from their occasional bursts of strange laughter that they were definitely not saying anything nice.
Suddenly, Hoshino Kannon tightened her grip, preparing to take action.
She could endure being humiliated herself, but she couldn't stand seeing Gu Chenan being humiliated along with her. Even though their words were aimed at her, involving Gu Chenan was unacceptable!
At that moment, Gu Chenan pulled her hand back: "Leave this to me. I can't let you take the risk."
By "risk," Gu Chenan meant being arrested again. Hoshino Kannon was stunned, then blinked and said, "Okay."
"Let's get in the car."
Gu Chenan ignored the provocations from Yellow-Haired Man and Long Hair Man, leading Hoshino Kannon's hand to the car.
"Wow, he even has a driver?"
"I should have asked for more if I knew the girlfriend's boyfriend was rich."
"Yeah, we definitely asked for too little."
"Tsk tsk, with a girlfriend like that and still willing to be a sucker and pay twenty thousand, where did this rich idiot come from?"
"Who knows? Anyway, we got our twenty thousand, let's go eat something good tonight?"
"Sounds good!"
At this moment, Yellow-Haired Man and Long Hair Man were still pointing and talking about Gu Chenan on the sidewalk.
"Gu Shao, are you okay?"
Seeing something was off, Ma Bing turned and asked.
Gu Chenan, with a grim expression, pointed at the two men outside the car: "Have someone follow them."
"Understood."
Ma Bing nodded and picked up his phone to give instructions.
......
At eleven o'clock at night.
In a large food stall, Yellow-Haired Man and Long Hair Man, with bandages on their heads, sat at a table eating skewers and drinking alcohol, looking both relaxed and smug.
"I never thought that guy would agree to give us ten thousand each. This is really a windfall!" Long Hair Man said while munching on a skewer.
"I thought provoking him with words would make him lose his temper and attack, but he turned out to be a coward, not daring to say a word," Yellow-Haired Man said proudly while smoking a pack of expensive cigarettes.
"Hey, if his boyfriend had any backbone, he wouldn't have agreed to our demands."
"Let's not talk about that. If his boyfriend had any sense, why would he let his girlfriend go to such places?"
The two men chatted and naturally steered the conversation back to Gu Chenan, mocking him again.
The gist of their words was that Hoshino Kannon had long been unfaithful to Gu Chenan, and the rich but foolish Gu Chenan not only didn't care but was even willing to pay twenty thousand for her.
But the two men didn't know that in a black SUV parked on the roadside, Gu Chenan and Hoshino Kannon were monitoring their every move.
Ma Bing in the driver's seat glanced at the situation outside and then turned to say, "Gu Shao, you could have left this to me. You didn't have to come in person."
Gu Chenan chuckled lightly: "Only by doing it myself can I feel satisfied."
"Exactly," Hoshino Kannon agreed, clenching her teeth.
Soon, Yellow-Haired Man and Long Hair Man finished their meal, paid the bill, and walked into a dark alley.
"Let's go, get out of the car," Gu Chenan waved his hand, and the three of them all got out of the car, following Yellow-Haired Man and Long Hair Man into the alley.
"Why don't we have more of these good things? If we encountered one every month, why would we need to work?"
"You think there are rich idiots like today's guy everywhere? For others, we'd only get a few thousand at most."
"True." As he spoke, Yellow-Haired Man's mind flashed with the image of Hoshino Kannon's beautiful face and couldn't help but exclaim, "To be honest, that woman, though crazy, is undeniably gorgeous."
"Indeed, she looks like she stepped out of a manga."
The two men walked and chatted along the dark alley, completely unaware of Gu Chenan and the others behind them.
But just as they finished praising Hoshino Kannon's appearance, they heard a spine-chilling female voice beside them.
"Thank you for the compliment."
The two men were startled and instinctively turned to look, but before they could, Hoshino Kannon in a leather skirt and combat gear appeared in front of them.
Seeing Hoshino Kannon dressed like this, the two men couldn't fathom what she was up to, only thinking they had coincidentally run into her again.
"Oh, beauty, what a coincidence!"
"Miss, where are you going dressed in that little leather skirt? Does your boyfriend know?" they mocked.
"What do you think?"
Hoshino Kannon said as she took out two sharp cones from her leg holster. Under the moonlight, the cold glint of the cones reflected deadly light.
In the moonlight, in the dark alley, Hoshino Kannon's eyes turned a blood-red color again, and the sharp cones in her hands reflected a chilling light that made Yellow-Haired Man and Long Hair Man tremble with fear.
They had witnessed Hoshino Kannon's combat prowess; she could knock them both unconscious in seconds. Therefore, they knew they stood no chance against the Hoshino Kannon in front of them.
"Be-beauty, what do you want to do?"
"Be-beauty, we've already made peace, don't do anything rash, or this time we definitely won't forgive you."
Yellow-Haired Man and Long Hair Man's eyes widened in fear, and they backed away while speaking.
"Forgive?"
Hoshino Kannon smiled, her red tongue licking the cone, presenting an alluring yet terrifying expression: "This time, you don't need to forgive, and you won't have the chance to."
"Crazy, crazy!"
Yellow-Haired Man and Long Hair Man exclaimed in panic, quickly turning to run, but they collided head-on with the tall and sturdy Ma Bing.
The two men were shocked, their faces contorted in fear.
Seeing that both the front and back paths were blocked, their minds raced, and they immediately turned to plead:
"Be-beauty, think about what your boyfriend said today, don't be impulsive!"
"Yes, beauty, don't let your boyfriend down!"
"Oh, are you talking about me?"
But at that moment, a voice they were all too familiar with appeared. The two men were startled and quickly turned around to see Gu Chenan walking out from behind Ma Bing.
Gu Chenan smiled and waved at them: "Hello again, nice to see you."
