Chapter 178: Two Photos
That night, after work, Su Hui went home and sat directly on the sofa, her gaze somewhat blank as she was still reminiscing Zhuo Hang’s words. They felt somewhat illusory, but after experiencing the Outland Incident, they seemed truly possible.
At this time, Gu Fan walked over. Seeing Su Hui sitting there in a daze, he waved to her, but received no response. Left without a choice, Gu Fan could only shout, "Sister Su, snap out of it, come back."
Startled, Su Hui immediately retorted irritably, "Snap out of it? Your head needs to snap out of it. Can’t you see I’m deep in thought? Are you deliberately interrupting me? You’ve been idle for a couple of days. Do you have an itch that needs scratching?"
Gu Fan shrugged indifferently. "Yeah, I am itchy. What are you going to do? Bite me?"
"You cheeky brat!" Su Hui charged over and unleashed a swift flurry of punches, holding nothing back, knowing Gu Fan could handle it.
However, Gu Fan’s performance surprised Su Hui. His footwork was nimble. He dodged left and right, the blocks were just right, completely handling her onslaught with ease.
"Well, I must say you’ve improved. No wonder you dare to provoke me." Su Hui’s enthusiasm only grew upon finding a worthy opponent. However, she overextended on an attack and Gu Fan found an opening.
With quick reflexes, Gu Fan grabbed Su Hui’s arm, preparing for a shoulder throw. But what kind of person was Su Hui? She stabilized herself by placing a knee against Gu Fan’s back and swiftly hooked her arm around his neck, forcefully pulling him backward.
Going with the momentum, Gu Fan tipped backward, delivering a back kick. But Su Hui blocked it. Still, she was impressed with his performance.
After a seemingly long battle, Gu Fan ended up subdued by Su Hui via a cross lock. Gu Fan begged for mercy: "Sister Su, I was wrong, please spare me, my arm is about to break."
Su Hui simply asked, "It’s good that you know you were wrong. With the new romance, your living costs must’ve gone up. But don’t raise my rent."
