Chapter 633: Scumbag, Poo
Ye Qing then looked at Xi Duoduo and scoffed with disdain, “Scumbag. You have no idea what’s good for you. Poo!”
Xi Duoduo: “...”
Everyone: “...”
This hall is in dire need of some shame right now!
“Hahaha... you’re a good lad! I like you.” The girl was happy to hear this though. She looked away from Ye Qing and stared menacingly at the rest of the guests. “What about you guys? Do you guys have something you wish to share with me?”
“Nope!”
“Absolutely not.”
“You’re always right.”
Everyone obeyed their instinct without any hesitation whatsoever. Then, as if they had practiced this a million times before, they turned to Xi Duoduo and declared disdainfully, “Scumbag. Pooh!”
“Scumbag!”
“Scumbag!”
Xi Duoduo: “...”
You’re all a reputable jianghu warrior in your own right. Can we have some backbone in this hall? Ah?
Even if I am a scumbag, what the fuck does it have to do with you? Do you need to grit your teeth like I dumped your wife or something?
Oh my heavens that fucker over there actually spat at me! I can actually feel his saliva on my face! I’m gonna—
“Hmph hmph!”
The girl huffed out with delight before turning back to Xi Duoduo. “You see this? Do you admit that you’re a scumbag now?”
“Yes, yes, I’m a scumbag.” Xi Duoduo immediately replied in the meekest tone he could muster. “I promise I won’t do it again, so please... leave me some face.”
“Hmph! If you apologized earlier, then I wouldn’t need to waste all those breaths, would I?” The girl declared like a victorious general after finally squeezing an apology out of Xi Duoduo.
And how is this my fault?! Xi Duoduo complained mentally but did not show his emotions on his face in the slightest. “Yes, yes, it’s all my fault.”
“There is no greater good than knowing the error of your ways and correcting it!” The girl nodded in satisfaction. “Alright, I’m tired. I’m heading back to sleep now.”
“Oh, and you better not cause trouble inside my body and disrupt my sleep again. Otherwise, you will regret it.”
“I will remember,” Xi Duoduo replied humbly while thinking, Please just leave already!
“Hmph hmph! Here, you can have it back.”
The girl kicked the hand beneath her foot back to Xi Duoduo and gradually turned transparent. A few seconds later, she was gone.
Xi Duoduo sighed in relief only after the girl was completely gone. To say that she was difficult to please would be an understatement. What on earth possessed him back then to choose her? Oh right, he was fooled by her appearance into thinking that she was cute, innocent and friendly. In reality, she was fiercer than a fucking tiger!
Karma truly was a bitch. He had screwed countless people over for profit, so it was his fate to suffer a she-tiger on his hill... forever.
There was nothing he could do about it though, This was the mistress he chose. He had to please her even if his dignity was raked over the coals again and again!
Xi Duoduo thought he had resolved himself, but tears began welling in his eyes when he looked down and saw the hand before his feet. It was such a beautiful, valuable hand, but now it was just a rotting chunk of flesh and bone. Heavens, he could literally smell the rot from where he was. Even with his persuasion skills, could he convince anyone to buy this? Obviously not.
Xi Duoduo felt like crying. This was why the saying, “Having given away a bride, to lose one\'s army on top of it” existed. Not only did he lose a hand that would’ve been worth a ton of money, he had to console his customers as well.
Sure, no one was harmed in the end, but it was his mistake that resulted in this shitshow in the first place. He had to make a show of good faith somehow, and what does good faith constituted in this scenario? Money, of course!
My bride! My army! My money!
Xi Duoduo was actually crying at this point. Tears wouldn’t stop streaming down his cheeks for a time.
Once again, there was nothing he could do about it. He was the one who screwed up. Of course he had to suffer the consequences of his own actions.
So, Xi Duoduo sucked in a deep breath, put a lid on his sorrow, and wore a smile on his face once more. He said, “I’m so, so sorry that happened, dear customers. It was my mistake that this happened. As compensation, I shall prepare a big gift for everyone later. I hope you can find it in yourself to forgive me.”
“You’re welcome, Mr. Xi.”
The crowd accepted his apology without any fanfare. No one tried to press him or anything. Was it because they weren’t angry that their lives had come under threat just now? Of course not. Petty-minded people were never the minority in the jianghu.
However, they had also witnessed a certain girl’s power earlier. They would have to be suicidal and addled to stir up trouble at this time!
Besides, no one was hurt. No one was even forced to use a life-saving item or something, not to mention that Xi Duoduo had promised to compensate them for their troubles. It would be too greedy to ask for more.
“Who was that man just now, Mr. Xi? Do you recognize him?”
It was at this moment Ye Qing spoke up. When the man had removed his mask, and Xi Duoduo had seen his face, he could sense just how shocked and surprised the businessman was. Unless he was gravely mistaken, Xi Duoduo recognized the man.
“In fact, I do.”
Xi Duoduo turned to look at the crumpled heap of a man at the far wall and answered with a complicated expression, “Do you still remember that I said that a tomb raider was the one who gave us the hand as a collateral? If I’m not mistaken, that man is none other than that tomb raider.”
“What? Are you sure, Mr. Xi?” Someone exclaimed in shock.
“I’m sure. I remember the scar on his face very well,” Xi Duoduo confirmed. “I already thought that something was wrong with him when he gave me the hand at the beginning. He seemed out of it and was barely coherent most of the time. Perhaps he had already succumbed to the hand then.”
“If that is true, then why would he give the hand to you as a collateral? For over five years no less?” Ancestor Greenwood voiced his puzzlement.
Xi Duoduo shrugged. “That is a question only he can answer, but...”
He glanced at the man again and shook his head. “It looks like that’s a question that will forever remain a mystery.
His little mistress had not held back. She had never planned on leaving him alive.
That was fine though. He was a businessman, not an investigator. He had no interest in finding out the whole truth about something, so the man’s death did not bother him much.
Xi Duoduo snapped his fingers, and two men appeared from the back stage. He ordered, “Take him away and bury him somewhere.”
“As you command!” The two men responded before walking over the man and carrying him on his feet.
It was at this moment the dying man suddenly grabbed one of the servants’ head and bit him right on the nose.
“Aaaaaaaaaargh!”
A bloodcurdling scream resounded throughout the Hill of Services. No one had seen this coming. The man should be incapable of lifting even a finger, and yet he had somehow to assault the servant.
By the time they came to, the servant’s nose had already been ripped off his face.
After biting off the servant’s nose, the man charged toward Xi Duoduo—or more accurately, the hand in front of him—while his face was covered in gruesome blood.
“You bastard!”
Enraged, Xi Duoduo brought out his Flame In Stone and showered the man with a jet of flames. His whole body caught on fire like his skin was made of oil.
The man could not seem to feel it though. He managed to grab the hand and hold it tightly against his chest.
“No one will separate us. We will never be separated again!”
Despite being covered in flames, despite the fact that his flesh and blood was turning black by the second, the man didn’t appear to be afraid or in pain at all. There was only infatuation, madness and love on his face.
