Chapter 3: 001 The Return of the Diviner_3
Editor: Henyee Translations
In Shanghai City, the most notorious name besides Jiang Moyuan was the man before his eyes, Fu Yunshen, The Seventh Young Master of the Fu Family.
However, the latter’s reputation was not a good one; it seemed that aside from a handsome face and wealth, no other merits could be found.
But Nie Chao always felt that he couldn’t see through this dandy playboy.
Fu Yunshen’s eyes were restrained as he smiled carelessly, “I certainly don’t want to be like him.”
“That’s true,” Nie Chao said, “It’s better to enjoy life’s pleasures freely. Luckily, I’m not the only child in my family, so I won’t be forced by the old man to take over the company.”
Fu Yunshen didn’t speak.
“You might not know, but the Ying Family taking in a foster daughter is just to provide blood for Ying Luwei; it’s quite pitiful,” Nie Chao continued, “But the pitiable also have their detestable points. I think this foster daughter of the Ying Family is lacking in character.”
He scrutinized the girl, inevitably astounded, “But she really is good-looking, tsk tsk, none of those from the capital can compare to her.”
Fu Yunshen still gave no response, his peach blossom eyes slightly lowered, his thoughts unknown.
With no one to gossip with, Nie Chao also lost interest. Just as he was about to ask the man if he wanted to check out the newly opened bar, he was suddenly surprised, “Hey, The Seventh Young Master, it seems like the Ying Family’s foster daughter is in trouble.”
Five street thugs who had appeared out of nowhere blocked the girl’s way, their faces bearing ill-intentioned, lewd smiles, with two of them holding knives in their hands.
Many people around noticed the scene but merely glanced at it coldly, before hurrying on their way.
“Now I believe in karma,” Nie Chao didn’t move, as if watching a good drama, “Look at her slender arms and legs, pitiful indeed.”
Fu Yunshen, without looking, finally spoke, “Go help her out.”
“Help?” Nie Chao doubted he heard correctly, “No way, The Seventh Young Master, are you actually asking me to help her? Do you know how bad her reputation is in Shanghai City? Getting involved would be like getting smeared with filth.”
“She’s just a young girl,” Fu Yunshen lifted his eyelids, “You’re also just going by hearsay. In the depths of a wealthy family, black and white reversal is the norm; how could you know what kind of person she really is?”
Nie Chao thought about it as well, “But why should I be the one to help?”
Fu Yunshen lazily stated, “You know karate.”
“Fine, fine, fine,” Nie Chao helplessly agreed, “I’ll help, but if I get blamed by the Ying Family’s foster daughter later, I’m going to say it was you.”
“Hmm,” Fu Yunshen indifferently affirmed, “it’s on me.”
Nie Chao somewhat reluctantly stepped forward, but before he could reach her, an unexpected event occurred.
The girl emotionlessly grabbed the wrist of the leading thug and, with a quick raise and an over-the-shoulder throw, her moves were chillingly ruthless.
In less than ten seconds, she threw punches and kicks, raised her foot for an elbow strike, and swiftly knocked down the remaining thugs without even gasping for breath.
It was so fast that everyone present was caught off guard, even the passersby were stunned.
Nie Chao was dumbfounded: “…”
Fu Yunshen slowly straightened up, raising his peach blossom eyes, and suddenly smiled.
