Chapter 760: Chapter 760: It’s impolite not to reciprocate!
Sheng Shaochen was the first to lead the applause, and soon after, a frenzied cascade of claps erupted, almost lifting Ye Shu off her feet.
General Dasha clapped halfway through before suddenly remembering the third point and hurriedly ordered loudly, “Quickly close all four gates of Bansi City, not even a fly should get out!”
“Cough cough…” Upon hearing this, Ye Shu choked on some smoke and said, “Great General, you have to say we are the exception!”
“We are the exception!” General Dasha shouted back, then realizing something wasn’t quite right, added, “The Holy Girl and her associates are the exceptions!”
Ye Shu and the Great Demon King left Bansi City in the off-road vehicle belonging to the base members, with the hostages going from having no hope the day before to experiencing a rebirth from calamity at that moment, naturally feeling immensely relieved.
Along the way, everyone lavished praise on Ye Shu and Sheng Shaochen, while openly blaming and cursing Song Xiaoxin and her maidservant, making Song Xiaoxin and her assistant A Lai too afraid to even pass gas.
As the car slowly made its way across the bridge that spanned the moat, Ye Shu gestured with her hand and said, “Stop the car!”
General Dasha, who was personally escorting them out, halted the vehicle and asked, “What’s the matter, Miss Ye?”
Ye Shu stood up, looked back at Song Xiaoxin, and said, “Miss Song, I am not a heartless person; let’s forget the drugged bus incident, but I can’t get past this hurdle. You should know clearly what needs to be done.”
Song Xiaoxin, who had been scolded to silence before, now understood Ye Shu’s implication as the car stopped on the bridge.
However, she chose to act deaf and remained silent.
“Hey, pretending not to hear?” Lady Baydi’s slap flew across and directly made Song Xiaoxin see stars.
“What the hell are you doing? Are you bullying the few with the many?” A Lai couldn’t help but shout.
“Stupid girl, dare to raise your voice at me again and see what happens!” Lady Baydi roared furiously, scaring A Lai into submission.
Other women also joined in, chiding with pointed sarcasm, “When you came, you purposely threw someone into the moat, and now look at you, playing deaf and mute?”
“Exactly, your acting is bad enough; don’t think you can get away with being silent!” New ɴᴏᴠᴇʟ ᴄhapters are published on 𝘯𝘰𝘷𝘦𝘭•𝘧𝘪𝘳𝘦•𝘯𝘦𝘵
“That’s right, you should face the consequences of how you endangered us in the past. Don’t force someone else to take action!”
“I really can’t stand this anymore, Miss Ye. If you’re afraid of dirtying your hands, then I’ll do it for you!” Lady Baydi, already strong, suddenly grabbed Song Xiaoxin’s collar and hoisted her up saying, “You wretch, will you jump on your own, or shall we help you?”
“I don’t want to!” Song Xiaoxin tried to squeeze herself towards Sheng Shaochen and pleaded, “Brother Chen, I really didn’t mean it. At that time, I just wanted to rescue you as quickly as possible, so I didn’t control the speed well, and I accidentally knocked Ye Shu down. It wasn’t intentional.”
In Song Xiaoxin’s eyes, whatever Sheng Shaochen said was always of great significance. As long as he said to let her off, nobody else would dare say anything more.
When everyone’s gaze turned to Sheng Shaochen, Demon King Sheng finally spoke up, “Miss Song, you and I are both businesspeople. Reciprocity is the rule; it cannot be changed by anyone.”
With that one statement, Sheng Shaochen made his stance crystal clear!
It is said that it’s only proper to return a favor. The Great Demon King meant that Song Xiaoxin must bear the consequences of her own past deeds. Begging for mercy from anyone would be futile…
