The young man's eyes flickered a little and, gesturing the exit from the patio behind the man, he smiled again.
When he started to talk again, his voice was calm and gentlemanly. It was soft like he didn't wish to wake someone. "This is your last chance. Get the * out of here on your own."
"––!"
The middle-aged man recollected himself all of a sudden and his face turned beet red from fury.
He was furious. He had to take a few deep breaths before his brain could function again. He was finally able to form words again. "So that's how it's going to be? Who the * do you think you are? You are but an 18th-tier that isn't even worth my time normally. Have you forgotten even your own surname because you think are you so good-looking?!"
After his shouting, the middle-aged man lunged forward angrily. The young man in front of him, however, took a step back with his right foot and then, using his left as a pivot point and turned his body––
The alcohol numbed not only the cerebrum but also the cerebellum that was in charge of one's balance. The middle-aged man, encountering nothing when he lunged forward and almost fell onto the floor.
He broke out into cold sweat and, his hands on the rim of the low wall on the edge of the patio, stabilized himself.
Just like that, Luo Xiu had taken the opportunity after he had avoided the middle-aged man to move between the middle-aged man and the exit of the patio.
He looked down in his arms –– from his conscious efforts, the girl was not awake by the ruckus and the mild movements. She was still sound asleep.
Luo Xiu smiled.
He looked back up again. Without even bothering to look at the trash with both mind and body as clumsy as that of a pig, he started walking out of the patio on his long legs.
And, right when he had taken just his first step, the middle-aged man who had been panting next to the wall finally regained his first breath. Standing back up, he took two steps forward and shouted.
"I dare you to stay! How dare you did that to me? Just how many lives do you think you have to throw away like this, huh?! I will remember you. From now on, no, starting tomorrow. I am going to crush you!"
Luo Xiu had already reached the door of the exit and was just about to step out of it.
He showed no reaction to anything that the man had said. All the nasty words coming from behind was nothing more than a dog's bark.
There was no need for him to go beat a dog up in person. It would only taint his name if words got out.
"……PEI!"
The middle-aged man was out of breath after running two steps forward and stopped. He spat and looked vicious.
"All I asked for is to toy with your female assistant for one night. Why you have to be so protective of her? Once I have you taken care of, I will still be able to do to her whatever I please––"
Bap!
The heel of the male casual style leather shoes made a very soft sound when it stopped on the cold tile.
The figure that didn't care about anything up until this point stopped abruptly.
Under the thin white shirt, the smooth muscles on the shoulders began to tense, as though some sort of emotions were being stored up and ready to explode.
The middle-aged man was surprised. Then he had on a ferocious smile. "Oh? You are not going to be a coward anymore? You are mad? Oh, I see. I can't talk about your female assistant. Is that it? Hah. Alright. Then I must talk about her–– once I had you taken care of, I will be nice and allow you to be there when I have my ways with her––"
The figured turned back around abruptly.
The middle-aged man who ran to the patio door was just able to see the pair of eyes that was still tender like jade just a few seconds ago.
As if the autumn wind, the tenderness turned into bone-chilling coldness.
Luo Xiu stepped up.
Lifted his foot and kicked the man right on his chest.
BAM!
The middle-aged man felt as though his chest was hit by something heavy. He lost balance before he could react.
With a loud thud, he landed on his butt.
After the initial numbness, a great pain came from his chest area. "… OOWWW!"
