Chapter 45: Unforgettable Visage

Shang Shi stared at him heavily, as though sizing him up, and sighed helplessly. “After all these years, I thought that you have gotten over that. To think that you’re still not alright…”

Bai Lang let out a puff of smoke. “How could I be fine? In my entire lifetime, I will never be fine.”

“But you can’t avoid fighting forever. Let’s say you get into a life-threatening situation. Even then, you won’t make a move?”

“If I can avoid it, then I will. Really, you guys?! Just a few grunts and you want me to make a move?! You could just take care of it by yourselves. Speaking of, Hao Yansen must have eaten something bad. He keeps wanting to force my hand. In the past, he wouldn’t have treated me like this.” Bai Lang could only shake his head helplessly.

Hao Yansen had changed, to the point where he was almost unrecognisable to Bai Lang…

Shang Shi gave him a resentful glare. “Do you not admit to your own mistakes? You took Young Master’s card and caused Miss Mo to meet with danger. I feel that what Young Master did was already very lenient!”

“HOW IS IT LENIENT? He is obviously targeting my weak and vulnerable soul, I’ve suffered a terrible wound, you know that?”

“Young Master is thinking about your wellbeing. If you always choose to avoid fighting, then you won’t break out of the shadow of your trauma.”

“There’s no need to say anything further.” Bai Lang tossed away the cigarette which he had just lit. “Let’s get out of here. How do you plan on dealing with this trash?”

“We’ll take them away first. Young Master naturally has plans for them.”

“Right, I forgot to ask, how did you manage to get here so quickly? It’s barely been ten minutes since I notified you.”

“Young Master said that he wanted to come out for a walk before you messaged us.

That’s why we were in the vicinity.”

“Ohhh~ I get it, so he was actually worried about us.” Bai Lang instantly revealed a cheeky grin. Shang Shi saw through his thoughts and monotonously asked, “So the damage to your soul has healed already?”

“That’s obvious, don’t you know who I am?” Bai Lang said light-heartedly, but the gloominess in his heart still lingered.

As well as the visage that he would not forget for the rest of his life…
