Chapter 2015 - 2017: Playing the Victim

Chapter 2015: Chapter 2017: Playing the Victim

Xiaoxiao’s little temper flared up.

No matter who this person was, a woman cross-dressing as a man and clinging to her own husband definitely didn’t have good intentions.

If that woman tried to latch onto him, that’d be a disaster!

She stepped forward and grabbed that cross-dressed person. "Stay away from my husband!"

But the moment she reached out, she realized the other party dodged her with ease.

Obviously, this person had trained; that made her even more suspicious.

Standing there, Yang Ming heard his wife’s voice, and his first reaction was relief.

His wife hadn’t gotten lost!

But his second reaction was: his wife was angry.

He just assumed she was mad because they’d gotten separated; he had no idea it was because of the cross-dressed woman in front of him.

At this moment, Wang Kui squeezed his way in too. Seeing Wang Kui, Xiaoxiao shouted, "Wang Kui, pull that person off your third brother!"

Once Xiaoxiao finished speaking, she squeezed out of the crowd.

She was a bit mad—mad at Yang Ming. Was he blind or what, letting some woman cling to him and not let go?

Hearing the order, Wang Kui immediately stepped up and yanked the cross-dressed person away.

Only then did Yang Ming break free. Seeing his wife leave the crowd, he hurriedly chased after her.

"Wifey, wait up!"

Xiaoxiao didn’t speak and kept walking forward.

"Wifey, I was wrong!"

Xiaoxiao stopped in her tracks. "What were you wrong about?"

"I should’ve held onto you just now. Instead we got separated."

Xiaoxiao shook her head helplessly and walked on.

Yang Ming was a bit confused. What on earth was up with his wife?

...

...

On the other side, the cross-dressed woman was grabbed by the burly Wang Kui and immediately shifted her target.

Grabbing that man just now had only been a stopgap, but the one in front of her was different—tall and strong. Sticking with him was definitely safer than sticking with the previous guy. Her bodyguards wanted to drag her back; even they would have to think twice. She had to seize this chance to escape; she could not let that person control her anymore. She’d been under control for a year, and it had taken so much to finally get out. Over her dead body was she going back.

If she was on her own, she’d definitely be dragged back. But if she walked with someone else, her bodyguards would hesitate; they wouldn’t dare openly snatch her away.

This was her only chance, so she went all out with the sob story.

"Big bro, that guy is going to drag me back again later. I’m a man—I don’t want to be messed with by a man, that’d ruin my whole life. You’re tall and strong; if I follow you, he definitely won’t lay a hand on me. I’m begging you, take me with you for a bit. Once I’ve completely shaken him off, I’ll leave. Don’t worry, I absolutely won’t cause you any trouble."

The people in the crowd heard her pitiful plea and couldn’t help chiming in.

"This little brother’s right. Big guy, just walk with him for a while. That beast in human skin—we’ll keep an eye on him, he absolutely won’t get away!"

But no matter how hard she played the victim or how much the crowd pleaded for her, Wang Kui didn’t respond at all, because he’d already figured out she was a woman. Wanting so badly to stick with them like this, she definitely had some agenda. So he waved his big hand and said bluntly, "Get lost."

Then he squeezed out of the crowd!

Seeing that it had no effect at all, the cross-dressed woman sighed inwardly, but it still wasn’t time to give up.

Right then, a righteous messenger arrived; someone in the crowd spoke up.

"Little brother, hurry and go. We’ll keep an eye on things for you—this beast in human skin definitely won’t dare do anything to you!"
