Chapter 494 - Zhuo Yuze (2/2)
Xiao Luo glared at the commander. “What’s the relationship between you and him?” he asked.
Zhuo Yuze’s eyes glowered, and he replied, “He’s my brother.”
“Oh, so that’s how it’s going to be,” Xiao Luo said.
He gave the man a mocking smile and said, “As a commander, you should be around the rank of senior colonel, correct? You should be about 34 this year. To already achieve the rank of senior colonel when you’re only 34… hmm, I bet you climbed your way up through some family connections? Have you ever attended military school? You don’t even know how to sit or stand properly, so it seems to me like you got in through the back door.”
“You b*stard, so cocky when you’re about to die. Is your brain filled with nothing but sh*t?” Zhuo Wei snarled.
Zhuo Yuze raised his hand, signaling his brother not to say anything. He stared at Xiao Luo with glowering eyes and scowled, “You want to know something? You’re the first person who has the guts to speak to me like that.”
“You’re also the first person who has the guts to talk to Xiao Luo like that,” Gu Qianxue said, suddenly joining the fray.
Hmm? What an innocent and beautiful looking young girl!
Zhuo Wei’s anger-filled eyes glinted when he saw Gu Qianxue. Just you wait, you little girl, once I get rid of this Xiao Luo, I’m going to come and conquer you, he thought to himself.
“Why are you looking at me? Look at me again, and I will gouge your eyeballs out!”
Gu Qianxue hated the lewd look in Zhuo Wei’s eyes. She was definitely not the kind of girl who shied away meekly.
“Hahaha…”
Zhuo Yuze laughed crudely and said, “I see… so you’re a savage horse! My younger brother loves savage horses because it’s going to be so much more enjoyable to ride on one.”
Hearing the commander speak in such a salacious manner, a cold light gleamed in Xiao Luo’s eyes. He discreetly scanned his surroundings and analyzed the situation. He took note that there were two platoons of armed soldiers, and they were undoubtedly carrying live ammunition. He decided to hold back as this was not a suitable place for him to take action now.
Gu Qianxue might be innocent, but it was not like she didn’t understand what was happening, and her face turned red in anger. As long as Xiao Luo gave her some sort of signal, she would make sure she beat these bunch of people up.
Zhuo Yuze looked at Xiao Luo once again and said, “Let’s go, I’m representing the country, and I’m here to recruit you!”
The commander spoke in a casual tone that sounded like there was only one path that Xiao Luo could take.
As long as he recruited Xiao Luo, he could make life difficult for him at any given moment. The commander had been through thick and thin with Zhuo Wei since they were kids and were really close to one another. Since Zhuo Wei was assaulted so severely, he swore that he would make the other person pay a hefty price for it.
“Can I refuse?” Xiao Luo asked, looking at the commander without any defiance. There was no need for him to show anger toward someone who was about to die.
As if he just heard a joke, Zhuo Yuze laughed like a madman and said, “What do you think?”
Zhuo Wei was incensed. “B*stard, to be so cocky just because you’re a little capable… You must be the husband of that slutty Su Li. You can’t fool me. I’ve already told you, I’m not someone you should mess around with. You better move while you still can. Otherwise, we’ll just drag you along,” he said, and gloated, “The moment my brother gives the order, that slut Su Li upstairs right now will be thrown off the building. It’ll be in the headlines tomorrow, and the public will read that the national goddess Su Li had committed suicide after jumping off the building due to depression, hahaha…”
Evidently, someone had already entered Su Li’s apartment and was in control of Su Li right now!
Xiao Luo read between the lines and understood this from Zhuo Wei’s words. He slowly clenched his fist tightly, and a murderous intent formed from this provocation.
Xiao Luo contained his urge to murder these people outright by complying with the commander’s demand for the time being. “Alright, I’ll go with you,” he snarled.
“A wise man submits to their fate; I look up to people like you.”
Zhuo Yuze sniggered and said, “Tie him up for me!”
“How dare you?” Gu Qianxue could no longer hold it in. The anger in her body was about to explode.
Xiao Luo checked her aggression. “It’s alright, I’ll go with them. Please go and have a look at the apartment just opposite of mine. If you happen to see anything dirty, get rid of it for me,” he said. Of course, he meant for her to make sure that Su Li was safe first.
“Yes, come back quickly and bring me out to have fun,” Gu Qianxue said, understanding his intentions.
Zhuo Yuze and Zhuo Wei were not expecting Gu Qianxue to be a martial arts expert and were naturally unaware of the threat she posed. At that moment, all they did was laugh at how innocent she was. To think that she even thought that Xiao Luo would be coming back! But what they didn’t know was that they were getting closer and closer toward their own deaths.
