Chapter 265 - 266: Never Rest Until Death
"Xiaodong!" Li Sijie almost suspected she was dreaming. She opened her eyes and cautiously turned her head, only to see Song Xiaodong’s resolute and handsome face. With a soft gasp, she had already thrown herself into Song Xiaodong’s arms, tightly wrapping her arms around his waist and couldn’t help but softly start sobbing.
Li Sijie was usually a very strong woman, but when faced with situations she couldn’t resolve and felt completely trapped, the sudden appearance of a man she liked, as if a divine weapon had descended from the heavens before her, fully revealed her vulnerable femininity. At this moment, she desperately needed the solid and reliable chest to lean on.
Song Xiaodong wrapped one arm around Li Sijie’s waist, then gently patted her back twice with his hand, and softly said, "Don’t be afraid, I’m here to solve this for you."
Li Sijie softly hummed in response, simply burying her face in Song Xiaodong’s chest. As for everything else, she didn’t want to care anymore. At this point, even if the guild was shut down, even if she lost everything, she didn’t care.
"Let me go!" Chen Qiusheng on the other hand was desperately struggling, but his wrist felt as if it were clamped by iron tongs, despite his efforts, he simply couldn’t break free.
Song Xiaodong looked up at Chen Qiusheng, his gaze appearing calm but it made Chen Qiusheng suddenly feel a strong sense of danger. Considering the other’s immense strength, if a fight ensued, he would easily be at a disadvantage. Knowing but not accepting defeat on the spot, he immediately forced a laugh and said, "I’m sorry, I was drunk just now."
"Drunk?" Song Xiaodong narrowed his eyes and asked, "Being drunk means you don’t have to take responsibility?"
Chen Qiusheng hastily added, "I didn’t know what I was doing just now, truly sorry."
Song Xiaodong released Chen Qiusheng’s hand, and just as Chen Qiusheng was secretly feeling relieved, he saw Song Xiaodong’s hand suddenly swing up, instinctively trying to dodge, but the palm still firmly struck his face.
"Slap! Slap!" Song Xiaodong swiftly delivered two hefty slaps to Chen Qiusheng, then coldly said, "I was drunk too."
