Quick Transmigration: The Villain Is Too Pampered and Alluring - Chapter 28

It was already 10 o’clock in the evening when Sheng Nuan found out about Ye Nanxun’s accident.

She learned from customer service that Ye Nanxun had been detained by the owner of the underground boxing ring, severely beaten, and then discovered that his mother’s illness had relapsed.

Her customer service was only basic, with limited traffic, and after performing security monitoring to prevent ambushes, there was no extra traffic to check other things. It was only when Sheng Nuan thought of Ye Nanxun that she inquired and learned about his predicament.

In order to raise money for his mother’s surgery, Ye Nanxun had been playing in fake matches for the gambling house’s bookmaker,  but was caught by the owner of the boxing ring and was detained on the spot.

In such a gray area, being detained means you’d either end up dead or half-dead.

Sheng Nuan hesitated for a moment… After all, this matter had nothing to do with her. Even if something happened to Ye Nanxun, it would not concern her.

Currently, they were getting along well, and even if she fell into a similar situation as the original host in the future, Ye Nanxun might not help her, but he wouldn’t harm her either. So why take the risk to save him?

But thinking of the scene where the Ye family’s mother and son celebrated her birthday yesterday, Sheng Nuan finally muttered a curse, took the gun Swat had left for her, and went straight out…

In the warehouse behind the underground boxing ring, Ye Nanxun was handcuffed and hung, his body covered in bl00d. The wound at his brow was continuously bleeding, blurring his vision.

Sister Lin, who hurried back, looked distressed. She glanced at Ye Nanxun helplessly before continually pleading with her father in a low voice.

“Dad, A’Nan is here to save his mother. Please let him go this time.”

Boss Zhao, holding a cigar, responded leisurely, “Let him go? I’d like to, but he shouldn’t have broken the rules here… In this line of work, rules are bigger than the sky¹!”

Seeing a burly man next to her pick up a whip again, Sister Lin hurriedly said, “Dad, but A’Nan is different. He is one of us. Dad… Since A’Nan is with me, just for my sake, please spare him this once. I beg you, Dad.”

Boss Zhao’s smoking action paused, and his brow furrowed.

“Ye Nanxun…” Boss Zhao asked, “Is what Sister Lin said true?”

Sister Lin quickly raised her voice, “A’Nan, speak up.”

Ye Nanxun slowly lifted his head…

His face was covered in bl00d, his nose bruised and face swollen, but he understood what the father and daughter were discussing… As long as he followed Sister Lin’s words, he could leave unharmed today. However…

Ye Nanxun began to cough violently. After the coughing subsided, he slowly spoke with a hoarse voice, “Thank you for Sister Lin’s kindness.”

Sister Lin sat back on the sofa, her expression full of helplessness and disappointment.

He would rather risk half of his life than be with her… Was she that unbearable?

Angry and embarrassed, Sister Lin gritted her teeth and stopped speaking, turning her gaze away.

Boss Zhao smiled, “Well, you’ve still got some backbone… Alright, considering your past association with me, I’ll let you keep one finger today. Don’t worry, I won’t take it for nothing. One finger for fifty thousand, and I’ll make up the money Jin Dafa gave you for the fake punches.”

With that, Boss Zhao waved his hand, and someone with a dagger walked towards Ye Nanxun…

Sister Lin’s eyes showed compassion, but in the end, she remained silent.

At that moment, a noise came from outside as someone entered, “Boss Zhao, someone is here to redeem Ye Nanxun.”

Boss Zhao raised his eyebrows, and Sister Lin was momentarily stunned.

Ye Nanxun, who was hanging, was stunned for a moment. When he guessed what was happening, he quickly looked up. The next moment, he saw a slender girl being led in by several burly men.

The girl was wearing a plush coat, looking delicate and fragile. Upon entering, she glanced at Ye Nanxun and and saw that he was battered and covered in bruises. She frowned slightly before looking back at Boss Zhao who was sitting at the top.

“Hello, I heard Ye Nanxun has caused trouble here. I’ve come to apologize on his behalf and redeem him.”

As soon as Sister Lin saw the girl, she immediately understood and instinctively looked at Ye Nanxun. She saw Ye Nanxun, who had been beaten without flinching, finally showing a change in his expression. His eyes were filled with anxiety and a hint of hostility.

He cared a lot about this girl.

Sister Lin felt a chill in her heart and expressionlessly sat back down.

Boss Zhao laughed, “A little girl… and you dare to stand here and talk to me.”

As Boss Zhao finished speaking, a burly man behind Sheng Nuan kicked her hard in the back, knocking her to the ground.

Ye Nanxun struggled violently, gritting his teeth and shouting, “Don’t touch her!”

Sheng Nuan was caught off guard by the kick. She cursed under her breath, got up, turned around and fired a shot.

With a bang, the burly man who had kicked her was shot in the thigh. He screamed and fell to the ground, rolling away.

In an instant, everyone around was stunned, and Boss Zhao’s face changed as he quickly stood up.

A bodyguard beside him drew a gun and stood in front of him…

Sheng Nuan was not a kind person to begin with. Considering she needed to save someone, she held back from shooting the man who had kicked her. However, her marksmanship, inherited from the original host’s memory, was personally taught by Leslie Norman.

Confirming that the man’s leg was ruined, Sheng Nuan slowly turned to face Boss Zhao, sneering, “Boss Zhao, it seems you’re not very polite.”

Sister Lin was already dumbfounded, her whole body tense.

Boss Zhao had already realized something… The girl opposite, with her marksmanship and unhesitating movements when drawing and firing her gun, clearly showed that she was not an ordinary person.

He squinted and sneered, “You have quite the temper, young lady.”

Sheng Nuan scoffed, “Aren’t you the one who started it?”

It’s true that the older you get, the more shameless you become.

Boss Zhao didn’t argue but instead probed, “I don’t know which deity you are, but what brings you to my little territory?”

Sheng Nuan frowned, “Are you senile? I said I came to redeem someone. Originally, I was going to speak politely, but you’re disrespectful as an elder, and now you’re still trying to question me?”

The more outrageous and audacious Sheng Nuan’s words and actions became, the more cautious Boss Zhao grew. He stared at her for a long time before asking in a deep voice, “Just redeeming someone?”

Sheng Nuan put her gun away and took out several stacks of cash from her bag, throwing them on the ground, “Your man kicked me, so I crippled him. Ye Nanxun broke your rules, and I’ve already paid for him. This matter ends here, how about it?”

Boss Zhao looked at her quietly, then smiled, “This little friend is so brave. I wonder if we can be friends.”

“You’re not worthy!”

Sheng Nuan replied coldly, “No more nonsense. Release him.”

Sister Lin stood up, “How can you speak like that?”

Sheng Nuan looked at her with a half-smile, “I don’t want to make trouble, so I suggest you don’t either. Know your place and don’t provoke people you shouldn’t.”

Sister Lin, enraged and red-faced, wanted to say more but was stopped by her father’s quiet admonition.

Boss Zhao raised his hand, and someone put Ye Nanxun down.

Sheng Nuan walked over to support him. Ye Nanxun looked at her with a fixed gaze, his lips pressed into a thin line.

“Let’s go. We can talk when we get back.”

Sheng Nuan didn’t even glance back at Boss Zhao or his people. She supported Ye Nanxun and turned to leave, showing her back to them as if certain they wouldn’t dare make any moves.

As the two left, Sister Lin stamped her foot in anger, “Dad, you just let her go like that?”

Boss Zhao’s face was slightly grim as he took a deep breath, “A’Lin, your father’s success today relies on his sharp eyes.”

Sister Lin was stunned, frowning in confusion, “But she’s just a little girl…”

Before she could finish, her father interrupted, “Have you ever seen any little girl with her shooting skills and courage? She didn’t even blink when she fired.”

Boss Zhao’s expression grew serious, “That wasn’t the look of someone who has fired a gun for the first time.”

Sister Lin froze…

Although Zhao Boss is involved in shady business, he still has to be extremely cautious in this kind of environment. Sister Lin although praised and treated like a queen in the underworld, had never even touched a gun.

She couldn’t imagine what kind of environment the girl had lived in…
