Chapter 592 - Grudges (2/2)
Asou Shuyao laughed as if she had just heard the funniest joke in the world, “In my eyes, every single person of Hua nation is just a lower class of animal destined to be enslaved by us. Go back to where you come from, chinaman! You are not welcome here!”
Asou Shuyao’s scathing insult finally got to Xiao Luo. With his dignity and patriotism for Hua nation, he would never allow someone to ridicule his culture in such crude terms.
“You foul-mouthed woman, I… I am not letting you go!”
As someone with a well-to-do background in Hua nation, the man had never expected to go through such humiliation in Ri nation. It was beyond what he could tolerate, and it made him lose his composure momentarily. Without warning, he stood up and pushed Asou Shuyao.
But little did he know that he had fallen right into Asou Shuyao’s trap, for she had purposely insulted him to instigate him into making an aggressive move against her.
She effortlessly blocked the man’s hand and swiftly grabbed his thumb in a tight lock. She then yanked it forcefully, and the man immediately screamed in pain. He bent his knees as his entire body leaned back, his face twisting in agony from the immense pain.
“How dare you assault a police officer? You have quite a nerve!”
Asou Shuyao smirked as she looked at the police officer. “Send him behind bars and proceed with a seven days detention,” she said.
“Wait!” Xiao Luo approached.
“Yes, Xiao Han-san? Are you planning to bail him out?”
Asou Shuyao smiled in a condescending way and said, “As you saw yourself, he was assaulting a police officer, and that is a serious crime.”
Xiao Luo tried very hard to quell his urge to kill and said, “I am going to be straightforward–if it’s me you’re after, then come at me. There’s no need to involve innocent people.”
“Although a color pen does not amount to much, such behavior must be nipped in the bud to make certain he does not progress to stealing more expensive things. Besides, he assaulted a police officer. Do you even understand what that means!” Asou Shuyao snarled as she let go of that man’s thumb.
The moment she finished speaking, Xiao Luo bounded like an uncaged tiger and lashed out with a powerful punch at her.
His attack was as fast as a tornado, and Asou Shuyao barely had the time to block the blow as she crossed her arms in front of her chest instinctively. The punch smashed right into her defense, and she felt like being hit by a tsunami. The force threw her back, and she crashed against an office desk behind her.
Everyone was busy with their work in the office, but they suddenly looked up, and their eyes were drawn to the commotion.
Asou Shuyao took a long time to recover as she felt her arms go numb from the hit. She could not stop trembling as she glared at Xiao Luo with hatred in her eyes. However, she erred toward caution and refrained from retaliating back. She could tell from the blow she received that this person from Hua nation was exceptionally skillful.
“This is what you call assaulting a police officer! Do you get it now?” Xiao Luo mocked.
Kimura Akino recovered from his shock and immediately said to the onlookers, “Don’t mind them, they are sparring. Go back to your work.”
Miyazaki Ronjin was also surprised, but unlike his colleague, he lit a cigarette and started smoking.
“So, can he go now?” Xiao Luo asked.
“Yes, he just needs to pay for the color pen.”
Miyazaki Ronjin responded. He then turned to Asou Shuyao, who was still tensed up and said, “Am I right, Ms. Shuyao?” He gave her a disdainful smile, which exposed two rows of yellowish teeth.
“Get the hell out of here!”
Asou Shuyao screamed. It was not a big issue, to begin with, and it would be unlikely that any serious charges could be made against the man. Her only intention was to force Xiao Luo to reveal his skills, and now that she had already gotten a feel of Xiao Luo’s strength, there was no need to waste her time on a random Hua national.
As Xiao Luo brought the man out, he gave Asou Shuyao a meaningful glare as they passed. His eyes resembled a wolf bearing a grudge, ready to pounce on its quarry when the opportunity arose.
