Chapter 145: As Long As We Are Together
There was a dramatic intake of breath coming from the almost-dead man lying on the floor. Everyone turned their attention away from me and onto Liu Haoyu as he let out a series of coughs that made me think he might be coughing up a lung or something.
I guessed I was partially right when a large black mass came out of his mouth. Spitting it out on the floor beside him, the old man wiped his mouth on the back of his hand before his eyes went straight to me.
"Get the fuck out of here," he snarled, his teeth dyed red. The whites of his eyes were bright red from burst capillaries, and he almost looked demonic as he glared at me. "You are not welcome here."
Seriously, what was with men making a wish, and as soon as they get it, they demand that I leave? Like, who the fuck made it so that you were able to live again? Sure, one of his men made the wish, but it was me who granted it.
I was almost starting to take this personally.
"She saved your life," snarled Chang Xuefeng, coming up behind me. Pulling me into his embrace, he glared at Liu Haoyu. "You should be grateful."
"Please," scoffed one of the men holding Liu Haoyu’s head. "Our Boss recovered on his own. Everyone knows that wishes are nothing more than a waste of time. Our Boss is loved by the gods. Nothing will happen to him because that is their wish."
I blinked at that statement before shrugging my shoulders. Liu Haoyu had a whole plethora of diseases and issues that weren’t going to be solved by me alone. Maybe if he were truly loved by the Gods, someone else would come forth and cure him.
I wonder if he would be an asshole to them, too.
