PEERLESS GENIUS SYSTEM II

Chapter 279: Crazy Woman

"I'm not going to try."

Fu Yiren responded, as she dejectedly put on her clothes and made to leave.

"I'm warning you, do not do anything to harm Su Li; otherwise, I won't let you go!"

Xiao Luo's threat came just when Fu Yiren reached the door, and she paused for a moment as her heart was once again mauled callously. Her situation was no different from a young girl trying to show her love to the boy she liked, but instead, what she got was the boy's rejection and warning.

Bitterly, she turned around and said, "Mie, we are both members of the NSA. Do you think I will actually kill the innocent?"

Xiao Luo was taken aback as he met her gaze. Suddenly, he felt inexplicably guilty, his eyes softened, and his gaze dropped to the floor. When he looked up at the door again, he only saw it slightly ajar, and Fu Yiren had disappeared, leaving a faint, lingering fragrance in the air.

"This is just crazy!"

Looking at the mess on the ground, Xiao Luo shook his head and sighed. He walked over and closed the door.

The episode cast a pall of gloom over Xiao Luo, and he chose not to regulate his breath anymore. He decided to just allow the internal injury to recover gradually. He walked into the bathroom, turned on the faucet, and rinsed his whole body. He frowned when he saw a few hickeys on his neck and lipstick marks on his face through the mirror.

He felt very dispirited, and having almost being raped by a girl just made him feel tainted.

Suddenly, the phone he had placed on the sink rang. He took a glance and saw that it was from Zhang Dashan. He turned off the faucet and answered the call.

"Oi, what happened today? You fired a store manager by the name of Lee Yueze and then hired him again. What the hell were you doing?" Zhang Dashan's booming voice came through the phone speaker.

Xiao Luo was not in the mood for banter just then, and when he heard that, his immediate riposte was to say, "With your IQ, it's kinda difficult for me to explain it to you."

"What the p***k? We haven't chatted for so long, and you have to flame me on such a rare occasion. What happened? Got raped by a woman?" Zhang Dashan shot back.

Zhang Dashan had inadvertently struck on a raw nerve, for he had no idea what had just happened to Xiao Luo; but the latter, having almost been such a victim, was not in the best of moods and did not take kindly to the jest.

"F**k off!"

Reacting poorly, Xiao Luo hung up the call without a further word. Had Zhang Dashan been at the front door that moment, there was no doubt that he would've greeted him with a kick.

When the line was cut, Zhang Dashan, calling from Jiangcheng, looked at his phone and was dumbfounded. He scratched the back of his head and muttered to himself, "What the heck, has Lao Xiao eaten a bomb or something?"

...

...

The next morning, Su Xiaobei called Xiao Luo for breakfast, and he cheerfully carried her as they left for Su Li's apartment.

Su Li didn't have a bite and waited for Xiao Luo to arrive before digging in.

Xiao Luo placed Su Xiaobei in her high chair then walked over to Su Li's side. He coughed drily before saying, "Didn't you say that you wanted to learn how to make vegetable taro paste?"

Su Li raised her head, and there was a look of surprise in her beautiful eyes. "It's morning now," she said.

Su Li had assumed that the dish was something eaten at noon or in the evening, and it was now the time for breakfast.
