Chapter 285: The Guo Nation Believes in the Term “Reciprocation”
He sounded like he was in anguish and appeared to be badly injured.
With the lights from the green Hummer, Li Beinian could see where the blood was flowing from.
She had caused that wound.
With the ivory dagger her godmother gave her.
At this point, Gale was forcing a smile.
Li Beinian couldn’t identify or express what exactly she was feeling.
Mu Xichen inched closer and looked down at him with a completely stern and cold expression.
Gale’s face got even paler as he called out, “Bei Lun!”
The man’s clear voice reverberated in the small space.
But Mu Xichen did not flinch a bit.
He looked at Gale and asked very slowly, “Which hand did you use to touch her?”
His voice was low and the sound of his footsteps intimidating.
“No.” Gale curled up instinctively and shouted like he was being accused. “She’s the one who hurt me!”
He then revealed the stab wound on his side. “Mu, look, my blood!”
But Mu Xichen seemed to not have heard him at all as he stepped heavily on the wound.
“Ah!” Gale yelled in agony. “Mu!”
He grabbed Mu Xichen’s leg in an attempt to stop him.
But it was futile.
Mu Xichen exerted some force, forcing an even more agonizing shriek from him.
Li Beinian’s eyelids twitched. She couldn’t bear to watch on.
He was… too cruel with that stomp!
The blood oozed out even faster now, dyeing part of his black military boots a bright red.
“Mu, the soldiers of the Guo Nation… shouldn’t do this…” he painfully said as he grabbed Mu Xichen’s leg. “People of the Guo Nation… have always been peaceful and harmonious. You’re… breaking the rules…”
Mu Xichen chuckled upon hearing that.
Instead of letting him off, he stomped on him harder than before.
Gale’s screams were loud and intense.
“The Guo Nation believes in something.” Mu Xichen smiled coldly. “It’s called reciprocation.”
As he said that, he bent over to grab Gale’s hair.
Gale panted with bloodshot eyes.
The next moment, he was tossed to the ground, landing belly first.
The pain from the wound was excruciating.
“Which hand did you use to touch her?” Mu Xichen asked again. Then, he stepped on one of Gale’s shoulders. “This one?”
Gale yelled, “No!”
He then shifted his foot to the right shoulder. “Or this one?”
Gale painfully said, “No, I didn’t… Ah!”
He screamed once again in serious pain.
Li Beinian’s hairs were standing on end as she watched Mu Xichen twist Gale’s arm forcefully.
She could barely believe that the man before her was Mu Xichen!
At this point, his back was facing her, but his ferocity was unmistakable.
As if feeling her gaze, Mu Xichen turned around.
His eyes looked into hers more deeply than ever.
