Chapter 323: Meeting the Enemy on a Narrow Path
"You are..." Lin Xi slightly frowned, trying to finish her sentence, but Gu Fan interrupted, "You don’t need to know who I am. All you need to know is that I am a friend of justice. I resolutely oppose people like you who betray trust and toy with people’s feelings. I am just like that - upright in pursuit of justice. If you have the courage, bite me."
Having heard his words, Lin Xi was left fuming with anger. "Is that you, Gu Fan?"
"Sorry, you’ve mistaken me for someone else." Gu Fan thought, with his face mask, goggles, and cap on besides deliberately lowering his voice when speaking, there was no way Lin Xi could have recognized him.
"Although I’m not Gu Fan, I’ve heard of him. He’s brave, kind, honest, respects his teachers and gets along with his classmates. He is especially gentle with his girlfriend. Anyone that hurts him is a bad person." Gu Fan’s words left Lin Xi speechless, almost rolling her eyes in frustration.
Of course, Lin Xi wasn’t going to let Gu Fan go easily. She sternly warned, "Put down the blueprint, heed my advice, and go back to live a peaceful life of studying. That’s what you should be doing."
"Study what? I’m not Gu Fan, you’ve got the wrong person. I am here to uphold justice and thwart the plans of an evil woman like you." Gu Fan kept denying, and as a result, Lin Xi got angry. "I possess supernatural powers. I can see through your disguise with my own eyes. Stop pretending."
Gu Fan was the one who was unhappy after hearing this. "What the hell is this? You’ve got this ability and you didn’t tell me earlier? I went through all that trouble to disguise myself. You did this on purpose."
Impressed by his deflection, Lin Xi almost choked with anger but managed to suppress it. "Enough of this. You may leave, but leave the blueprint behind."
"Give me a reason to play along. Otherwise, I’d rather die than submit." Gu Fan adopted an unyielding stance, making things difficult for Lin Xi. Despite this, Lin Xi was confident she could handle it and replied, "Because at the snap of my fingers, you will kneel before me. Is that reason enough for you to cooperate?"
