Chapter 234 - A stormy night (2/2)
“You little *sshole, have you received my gift? Was your sister blown up? Hahaha!” Long Sankui’s cruel voice came through the phone.
“Are you testing my limits?” Xiao Luo’s voice was cold, with no trace of emotion.
“So what if I’m testing your limits? Are you dissatisfied? Come and f*cking kill me, how about that?”
Long Sankui roared, “I’m telling you that if you dare not come tonight, I’ll keep planting the bombs. Next time, maybe it’ll be your friends, your parents or your useless colleagues. You could save them this time, but can you save them every single time? I won’t f*ck with you, I’ll just keep f*cking your friends and families up, I’ll blow them up and give you a taste of losing what is dear to you.”
“You wanna die?” Xiao Luo said coldly, as rage began to take hold of him.
“Hahaha! Are you finally getting mad? You little pr*ck, I’m waiting for you, and I’ll chop your head and kick it around like a soccer ball!” Long Sankui hung up with the lingering sound of his evil laughter.
Even beneath all those bandages, Gu Qianxue could still feel Xiao Luo’s rage emanating from within.
Crack~
The phone was crushed in Xiao Luo’s hand, shattering its internal parts and screen. They fell in little pieces to the floor.
Gu Qianxue was stunned, and for the first time, she feared for him. Immediately she asked in an urgent tone, “Xiao Luo, what’s going on with you?”
“It’s nothing.” Xiao Luo forced out a smile.
…
…
BOOOM!
A crack of thunder rumbled as a flash of lightning lit the sky up; a colossal storm formed over Jiangcheng bringing heavy rains and strong gusts of winds.
Gale force winds were driving the rain through the streets, forming a turbulent haze, and blew the trees on both sides with such force that they looked like toppling over. Weaker limbs and branches were torn off and were carried away with the wind.
A distance away from the hospital, a vehicle parked under a tree. In the fierce storm, a thick branch had fallen on it and damaged the front of the car. Its alarm triggered and blared incessantly, breaking the monotony of the tras.h.i.+ng rain and thunderclaps.
It was a rare storm, a tempest that only hits Jiangcheng every once in a long while.
Xiao Luo was sitting on the sofa in the ward with his legs were crossed. His right hand was on the armrest, which he was tapping on rhythmically, while his left elbow was resting on the left armrest with his hand on his chin.
He was in his hospital gown, and his eyes were still covered up. But a strange warm glow was surging within his body, revealing his silhouette under the garment when it pa.s.sed.
In the dim light of the ward, the whole scene seemed nothing short of eerie.
“Why are you forcing me?”
Xiao Luo had spent a hundred thousand points to activate the healing ability. Waves of warm light now ran through his body, steadily healing the burns and damage done to his body and eyes. As his body healed, his face took on an expression of rage and murderous intent.
He would not have chosen this path, but Long Sankui had painted him into this desperate corner.
He was well aware that Long Sankui had nothing to lose, and he would put all the resources he had to get back at Xiao Luo. What game did he have in mind this time?
For the sake of his family and friends, he would play Long Sankui’s game. He had chosen this path, and he intended to finish it.
…
…
A flash of lightning awakened Liu Tieguo. He glanced at w.a.n.g Lihu and Ye Qiu, and they were dead asleep. He decided to get up and check on Xiao Luo. He peeked through the little window and found no one in the dim-lit room.
“Boss, I hope you’re not up to something silly again!”
Liu Tieguo mumbled to himself and quickly took out his phone, dialing a number urgently.
Fan Changlong, the chief of headquarter, turned his head when he heard his phone ring.
