Chapter 247 - SUAVE SENIOR BROTHER (2/2)
Not expecting that Hu Lei would show her savage side before her husband, Kaito did not have the time to dodge elegantly. In a panic, he evaded the weapon hurriedly and tripped over a footstool before falling down on the plush rug beneath his feet.
With that, he lost his graceful and perfect image. Hu Lei looked at him sitting on the floor with a shocked expression and laughed out loud.
She turned to Zhong Feng and pulled his arm. ”Baby, let's go take a shower. I'll wash off the gel from your hair before it causes any damage.”
Zhong Feng looked at Kaito before saying 'ok' obediently.
As he watched them walk away, Kaito felt that he had lost his image as a suave senior brother.
He was supposed to be cool so that Zhong Feng would feel threatened. Then, the man would have to treat Hu Lei better because he would be afraid of the great senior brother stealing away the treasured beauty.
He remained on the floor looking at the knife embedded on a wall, feeling that it was his greatest enemy.
While he was contemplating his life, his phone rang. He took it out and stood up quickly before answering.
”Teacher, is something the matter?”
An aged but vigorous voice came through. ”I heard from the others that you went to see my little student. How is she?”
Kaito felt aggrieved. ”Why don't you ever want to check up on me? Even when I was injured, you did not call me even once.”
”Who do you think you are? Do you deserve my concern? Do you ȧssume I don't hear about your antics from my other students? You should be asking me how I am doing? You do not even bother to send a bottle of good quality sake to me.”
Kaito regretted his earlier words because he suddenly remembered why he did not call their teacher. He was long-winded and a total nag. He did not have the mystery and grace of a ninpo teacher.
”Now, tell me about little Hu Lei? Is she well? I hear there is some trouble.”
”Do you need to worry about her issues?” Kaito was annoyed by the nagging. ”She is as aggressive as ever, and I am here to help out. And even if things go wrong, her husband is not an herbivore.”
”WHAT? My little Hu Lei is married? Who is the shameless b*stard who has dared kidnap my student? I will find him right away! He will curse the day-”
”Teacher, there is an emergency. I have to go. Bye.”
Kaito hung up immediately and breathed in relief.
That old man could annoy anyone to death. For a moment, he wondered if he would make good on his threat to come to Supreme City. After a moment, he shrugged carelessly. The relic rarely left the mountains. It was highly unlikely that he would come.
And if he did…
It would be Hu Lei's problem.
