Chapter 40: Repeat What You Said Earlier?

At that moment, the toddler finally reacted. It started crying.

A woman immediately dashed out from the crowd, hugged the child, and called him ‘Baby’. She was scared that Mo Youwei would take revenge and did not dare to stay for any longer. She hugged the child and entered the crowd in a hurry.

Within a moment, only Lou Qianxue and Mo Youwei remained on the streets.

Lou Qianxue was wearing a long, white robe. Her expression was cold yet beautiful. Carrying a long sword on her back, she just casually stood there, and an exceptional charisma engulfed everyone.

At that moment, someone in the crowd recognized her. The person could not help but yell, “Lou Qianxue! She’s Lou Qianxue! She’s that Lou Qianxue!”

The incident regarding Lou Qianxue at the Alchemy Union had already been spread. A lot of people had heard her name. Upon hearing what the person said, all of them started looking at her in a curious manner. “So she’s Lou Qianxue! How beautiful!”

“That’s great. If she’s Lou Qianxue, Mo Youwei would not dare to take action against her. After all, the city lord’s mansion does not pale in comparison to the Mo Family.”

“Right, right, right!” The woman who was hugging her child in the crowd let out a breath of relief upon hearing that. Afterward, she hugged her child and silently ran away. Lou Qianxue’s identity was extraordinary, and she would not have to be afraid of Mo Youwei taking revenge upon her. However, the woman was afraid. Hence, she needed to escape before Mo Youwei discovered her.

Mo Youwei was hit on the face by the whip. He was in huge pain and was furiously cupping his face. He was about to hit her when he suddenly heard someone call out her identity.

“Lou Qianxue?” His heart moved. He had seen Lou Qianxue and Madam Xuanji before. In his memories, the mother and daughter were extremely good-looking. It would not be an exaggeration to call them extraordinarily gorgeous.

As he thought about that, Mo Youwei’s anger considerably diminished. He carefully sized-up Lou Qianxue, and a glint of surprise flashed across his eyes. A lecherous smile could not help but surface on his face.

He narrowed his eyes and walked a few steps forward. “So it’s Miss Lou. The manner he talked in was pretentious and insincere.

Lou Qianxue looked at him in a cold gaze. “What do you want to do?”

Mo Youwei loudly laughed. “Although the city lord’s mansion is not bad, the Mo Family cannot be easily bullied. You killed my horse, so naturally, you must compensate me!”

Lou Qianxue coldly humphed. Her fingers moved, and she retrieved a few silver notes from the Mountain River Space. She passed them to Mo Youwei. “This thing is settled.”

Mo Youwei reached out with his hand, but he did not receive the silver notes. Instead, he touched Lou Qianxue’s white and soft hands. His heart shook, and he lecherously said, “Good little sister, Brother Mo has a lot of silver notes. Why don’t you replace the horse and let me have a ride? I heard that the guy with the surname Su does not want you anymore. If you are willing, big brother can let you...”

He was speaking when...

Crack!

The sound of bones shattering appeared.

“Ah—” Mo Youwei let out a pathetic yell as if a pig was getting slaughtered. His expression immediately changed as he held onto his broken wrist, wailing heartbreakingly.

Lou Qianxue’s expression was icy-cold as she kicked him. Her silver-white boots directly stepped onto his face, and she crushed forcefully, “Repeat what you said earlier!”

Mo Youwei, as the eldest young master of the Mo Family, had never been so embarrassed before. His skills were evidently higher in level than Lou Qianxue, yet her foot was like a parasite. He could not avoid it no matter what.

Immediately—fury, hatred, resentment, and shame—all these emotions surged up in his heart. Without any care, he started scolding her. “B*tch. You are a b*tch that no one wants! Let me tell you, Lou Qianxue. One day, I will force you—”

Mo Youwei had not finished his dirty words when he suddenly stopped.

He widened his eyes. He fearfully looked at the shining longsword lying between his legs. That icy-cold sensation caused him to immediately break into a cold sweat.

Yet, the cold and beautiful girl who was holding the longsword had a calm expression. Her eyes did not move, and she merely opened her mouth in an indifferent manner. “Speak! Continue speaking!”

Mo Youwei’s face turned into the color of pig liver. He immediately fell silent and did not dare to open his mouth.
