Chapter 1875: Getting Beaten Up

The pretty boy frowned, “Did you meet him or not?”

“Someone came to invite him, but he didn’t go.”

“Interesting,” the pretty boy tossed a grape into his mouth, “I asked you to check his funding sources and identity, have you got any leads?”

The bodyguard shook his head.

“This tricky?!”

The pretty boy shot up from his seat, almost choking on an unchewed grape, his face reddened as he grasped his throat, managing to recover after a few attempts, the flush faded, quickly turning pale, “I got myself a real burden from the desert!”

The woman laughed.

The laughter was light and tingling, the pretty boy grouched, “You heard it all, and you still dare to mess with a guy like that?”

The woman was unfazed, not at all scared, she held the rail to head upstairs when suddenly, the sound of a screeching brake came from outside. She bent down to look out, seeing an open car door, and a man stepping out with increasingly menacing steps.

The pretty boy heard the commotion and went to greet it, his face full of smiles, but when he saw the fierce and menacing Yaen Chi, his mind blanked, and without hesitation, he turned around to run.

But before he could get away, Yaen Chi caught him, pressing the back of the pretty boy’s head, moving swiftly, even faster than before, slamming the pretty boy onto the couch, pulling him up for a violent beating, making the pretty boy yelp and scurry around, squatting there holding his head, begging for mercy.

After Yaen Chi had enough, he lowered the leg that was resting on the coffee table, stood up tall, his height slowly rising, he adjusted his collar, half-smiling as he massaged his wrist.

“You got some nerve, trying to trick me.”

The pretty boy looked utterly puzzled, “I didn’t, I couldn’t dare!”

“Couldn’t dare? Then who gave you the guts to investigate me?”

The pretty boy was even more bewildered, beads of cold sweat rolling down, his heart full of dread, he had indeed asked to investigate, but hadn’t he instructed those guys to do it secretly? Tonight’s plan was to lure him to his casino to check his account info, could it be that those idiots weren’t discreet and he accidentally caught them in the act?

He jumbled a lot of words, confused, couldn’t figure out how to explain himself, already beaten like this, making up more excuses might anger him further.

“Well…”

The pretty boy squatted, moved to Yaen Chi’s feet, “I just felt insecure, you’re so mysterious, always hanging out with me, I was scared, so I wanted to find out more about you to put myself at ease, you know?”

Yaen Chi: “Call me grandpa.”

“Grandpa!” The pretty boy’s voice was clear, raising three fingers, “I swear, I only have this simple intention, nothing else, you’re so tight-lipped, such a good shot, you have no idea how many nights I couldn’t sleep well.”

Yaen Chi sat down on the armrest of the sofa, “Why be afraid of me, can’t you just kick me out?”

“No way!”

Such a dangerous person, if he lets him go, if they become enemies and he turns against him, wouldn’t that be asking for trouble? Besides, just by keeping him under his nose it’s already so hard to handle, at least he provides three meals a day, serving him well, for this small kindness, Yaen Chi wouldn’t harm him on his turf, how could he dare let him go?

The pretty boy smiled placatingly, “Grandpa, you came a long way, escaped here to G City with me, I can’t possibly be heartless and leave you, right?”

He moved closer again, not crawling on the floor was his last bit of pride, “Forgive me, I’ll make sure I don’t dare do it again.”
