Chapter 1072 - 1068: Kindness and Evil

Just in the moment he snapped back to reality, Qian Gaochang felt that the person looked quite familiar, as if he'd seen them somewhere before. A puzzled expression appeared in his eyes as he looked Ozawa Miwa up and down.

When the little princess got angry, despite her serious demeanor and frosty face, that look somehow gave off a cute vibe, no matter how stern she appeared. It hardly inspired any fear, but rather a sense of amusement and delight!

Xiao Tian sneered coldly in his heart, understanding that it wouldn't take long for Qian Gaochang to recognize Ozawa Miwa.

It couldn't be helped. Her slightly petite figure, coupled with a face so cute it was beyond critique, was just too unforgettable. Once seen, it left a deep impression, with no need for interaction to deepen the memory!

Sure enough, the confusion in Qian Gaochang's eyes quickly disappeared; a hint of realization emerged in his gaze, and he looked around. After spotting the smiling Xiao Tian, his eyes suddenly turned sinister, and a murderous aura emanated.

Since he was discovered, Xiao Tian decided not to remain a stable observer anymore. Leaning back in his chair, he casually drummed his fingers on the armrest, asking in a relaxed manner, "Long time no see, Young Master Qian. By the way, your leg recovered so quickly?"

"Truly a cause for celebration!"

Once Xiao Tian mentioned the topic of the leg, Qian Gaochang could no longer contain himself and stormed towards Xiao Tian in a fit of rage.

In doing so, everyone noticed that the person who claimed he was about to search their luggage seemed to indeed have trouble with his right leg, but it wasn't very obvious. If Xiao Tian hadn't mentioned it, it would have been hard to tell there was any problem at all.

"Xiao Tian, you fucking dare mention my leg?" Qian Gaochang said through clenched teeth, "I said back then that the day would come when you'd repay a hundredfold what you did to me, and now, I've finally waited for this day!"

His face broke into a smile, but that smile looked terrifying!

"Is that so?" Xiao Tian chuckled lightly, seemingly unfazed by Qian Gaochang's threat, and feigned surprise, "Last time it was the right leg. Are you now planning to break the left leg too to make a pair?"

"You!" Qian Gaochang's thick eyebrows shot up as his body shook with rage. The issue of his broken leg had always been a sore point for him, and having Xiao Tian bring it up repeatedly made him wish he could rush over and tear that sharp-tongued mouth apart.

"Good... good... very good!"

With three consecutive 'goods,' Qian Gaochang nodded forcefully as he spoke, looking like he was on the verge of a mental breakdown, gasping heavily to quell the overwhelming anger within!

...

"Originally, I had no chance of fulfilling the vow from back then, but you've kindly walked right into it now." Qian Gaochang grinned, "Tell me, if I don't make good use of this opportunity, wouldn't it be a disservice to your painstaking efforts?"

Xiao Tian's expression remained unchanged, still with a light smile on his face, looking composed, as if watching a clown performance, then raised an eyebrow and countered, "Are you sure this opportunity of yours isn't just you courting death again?"

This time, surprisingly, Qian Gaochang didn't explode in anger and instead nodded very seriously with a sinister smile, "There's a saying, 'those who play with fire will inevitably get burned.' Aren't you now playing with fire..."

As he spoke, he gave Ozawa Miwa a meaningful look.

The little princess was taken aback, involuntarily shivering. Being from the royal family, she understood some schemes and tactics, coupled with the meticulous reminders from the middle-aged man before departure, solemnly warning her never to reveal her identity.

Recalling those reminders and Qian Gaochang's gaze just now, an ominous premonition arose in her heart...

"If I reveal myself, it's not a big deal, but it would be terrible for Father and Brother Xiao Tian!" Ozawa Miwa thought silently.

Xiao Tian sneered, "Whether I'm courting death is one thing, but what do you intend to do?"

Although Xiao Tian spoke calmly, to Qian Gaochang and his men, this was a clear signal of submission. Amongst them, there were two who were witnesses to the events of the past.

However, with just one confrontation, they were slapped away by Xiao Tian, and it was normal they couldn't recognize him now. After all, such low-rate characters were never significant to Xiao Tian!

It was true back then, and it's true now!

"I'll make it simple. Just have that 'little girl' by your side accompany me for a while..." Qian Gaochang chuckled, looking at Xiao Tian with envy, "I imagine playing with someone so noble must be quite thrilling, huh?"

After Qian Gaochang finished speaking, he wore a face of certain victory. Just now, when he said "that little girl," he emphasized the tone, making it very clear: I can call her that little girl, and I can also reveal her identity as a royal princess.

With such leverage, are you still afraid of defying heaven?

Ozawa Miwa's face flushed suddenly, but it was out of anger. Her big eyes widened with fury, and she bit her lips hard, wishing she could kill the despicable person before her right on the spot!

She indeed is kind, but that doesn't mean she's weak. Facing shameless people, Ozawa Miwa wouldn't hesitate to strike, because otherwise, it only makes the bad guys more rampant, and she would get hurt!

...

"When kindness becomes a habit, it turns into weakness, and bad people will exploit this to hurt you wantonly!"

This sentence was deeply etched in Ozawa Miwa's memory because, at that time, Mei Huizi said it with unprecedented seriousness and solemnity.

The young princess, though she could somewhat understand the sentence's meaning, still questioned, "Is Granny Mei Huizi telling me not to be kind?"

Mei Huizi replied with a smile, "I hope you will be the kindest among evil people and the fiercest among the kind. Repay kindness with kindness and handle evil with evil!"

"Only then can your kindness not fall prey to evil!"

If Xiao Tian heard these words, he would undoubtedly applaud on the spot because they made so much fucking sense!

If being kind means tolerating all sins and allowing the outside world to harm you without restraint, what's the use of being kind?

An eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth!

If someone respects me a foot, I'll return with a yard!

This is the principle Xiao Tian always follows.

As for the notion that kindness means constant retreat, and fighting evil with evil is itself evil, then that can't be called kindness; it's stupidity, utter stupidity!

...

Therefore, at this moment, Ozawa Miwa genuinely wanted Qian Gaochang to die, for such scum didn't know how many good people he could harm while alive.

In the next moment, Xiao Tian's expression changed, his mood reached rock bottom, and he kicked forward with his right foot, shouting, "Fuck you!"
