Chapter 779 - 779: Acting Skills Rivaling a Movie King

Sure, here is the translation:

After being stunned for a while, Lone Wolf forced a laugh and said, "Sponsoring the welfare home, what else could it be?"

"Please don't treat others like fools, okay?" Nie Longjiao said angrily, "Who sent you here?"

In fact, she had long considered that such a situation might happen.

After all, no matter how clever the theft technique, it can't be flawless, and it's not entirely unacceptable to be discovered.

Seeing that they couldn't keep pretending, Lone Wolf slightly lowered his head and roared angrily, "Take action!"

The three rushed together, charging towards Nie Longjiao, who was five meters away.

Always vigilant, Nie Longjiao immediately stepped aside, dodging their assault, and then ran towards the farmer's market.

Lone Wolf wanted to chase, but was stopped by Hui Shiqi, who then raised his voice deliberately, "No need to chase, can the monk escape the temple?"

Indeed, Nie Longjiao paused.

She turned around, walked back slowly, took a deep breath, and said, "Is your boss called Xiao Feng?"

"What Xiao Feng, I don't know him," Lone Wolf immediately denied.

Hui Shiqi and Hui Shiba's hearts skipped a beat, isn't this making it obvious, buddy?

Not responding, or saying "You don't need to know," would be better than outright denial.

At this moment, Nie Longjiao was ninety-nine percent certain that it was indeed Xiao Feng who had sent these three over.

The other party had sought her out an hour ago, explicitly expressing interest in recruiting her, but she refused.

An hour later, someone shows up at her door; it's hard not to be suspicious.

As for whether it was someone else, Nie Longjiao thought the possibility was very small, almost negligible.

Because if it was someone else, why come at this specific point in time?

Thinking of this, Nie Longjiao came up with an idea and said, "No matter who you are, none of you three will leave here today!"

After speaking, she actually charged straight at them.

Naturally, Lone Wolf and the two set up a formation: one faced her head-on, while the other two attacked from behind.

"Bang!"

Hui Shiqi struck Nie Longjiao on the back.

"Ah!"

Nie Longjiao cried out in pain, fell directly to the ground, and couldn't get up for a long time, looking as if she had lost her combat ability.

For a moment, time seemed to come to a standstill.

None of the three of Lone Wolf expected that after leaving a harsh word, she would simply and neatly fall down in less than five seconds.

Is this some kind of joke?

However, there was no time for that, Lone Wolf whispered, "Get the rope."

After speaking, he quietly sent a message to Xiao Feng.

Xiao Feng, who was waiting at the market entrance, immediately rushed to the welfare home upon receiving Lone Wolf's message.

Only, he felt something was a bit off; could Nie Longjiao be taken down this easily?

But seeing Nie Longjiao indeed on the ground, he had no choice but to believe it.

"Stop!" Xiao Feng shouted sharply.

This shout was truly full of righteousness.

If it were a TV drama, there should be slow motion at this point, accompanied by thrilling background music, finishing with a close-up.

"Who are you?!" Lone Wolf approached.

Xiao Feng said righteously, "In broad daylight, you're kidnapping. Do you have no regard for the law?"

"Law?" Lone Wolf laughed loudly, hands on his hips, "I really don't know what the law is. If you don't want to die, get lost, or I'll tie you up too!"

Xiao Feng looked at Nie Longjiao and said firmly, "As long as I'm here, I dare anyone to touch her!"

As his words fell, Nie Longjiao shouted, "Cut!"

After shouting "Cut," she stood up, patted the dust off her clothes, and clapped her hands, saying, "Mr. Xiao, if you don't pursue a career in acting, it's really wasting your talent.

Your acting skills are so exquisite, comparable to a film emperor." Xiao Feng was taken aback, "What acting, what film emperor, what are you talking about?"

"Does Mr. Xiao want to continue acting?" Nie Longjiao said expressionlessly, "What's the name of this play, Hero Saves Beauty?

Unfortunately, no one pays me for acting." At this point, continuing to pretend was pointless. Xiao Feng chuckled and shook his head, "You say you're not good at acting, that's really modest. You played dead on the ground just now very well."

"That depends on who you compare with. Compared with Mr. Xiao, my acting skills are still too juvenile," Nie Longjiao said with a sarcastic tone.

Xiao Feng sighed deeply and said, "Don't worry, the scene between you and me is not over yet, to be continued."

After speaking, he turned to Lone Wolf and the others, "What are you standing around for? Let's go!"

...

Outside the farmer's market, in a restaurant with pitiful customer flow.

Lone Wolf, Hui Shiqi, Hui Shiba.

The three stood in a row, heads down, a look of shame as if facing their parents after being caught doing something wrong.

Sitting on a stool, Xiao Feng shook his head and sighed, "I really am impressed by you all."

Hui Shiba stepped forward and said, "Brother Feng, we didn't expect she was pretending too."

"Objectively speaking, this failure is mainly because of Brother Wolf," Hui Shiqi said seriously, "If it weren't for that brick.

And then the denial, the failure wouldn't have been so complete."

Lone Wolf was immediately displeased, but before he could speak, Xiao Feng interjected, "What brick? What denial?"

Hui Shiqi didn't hide anything and explained the situation all at once.

After hearing it, Xiao Feng only felt his blood pressure rising a bit, he looked at Lone Wolf, "You picked up a brick from the ground, intending to knock her out?"

"Not really, mainly it's acting, isn't it? How else do we show we're the bad guys?" Lone Wolf explained with a guilty conscience, "I did this to set the stage for your grand entrance."

"..." Xiao Feng.

Are you sure this was setting the stage and not digging a pit?

Hui Shiba tried to smooth things over, "Brother Feng, the situation is what it is, the result can't be changed.

I think now we should summarize the lessons from failure and come up with a new plan."

"No need to summarize." Xiao Feng said disappointedly, "This failure is all my responsibility."

Lone Wolf and the others exchanged looks, and quickly tried to take the blame.

But before they could speak, they heard Xiao Feng continue, "My biggest mistake was choosing you three to execute the plan."

"..." Lone Wolf.

"..." Hui Shiqi.

"..." Hui Shiba.

So, in the end, we still have to take the blame?

In fact, Xiao Feng wasn't trying to shift the blame; it was truly not the plan that had problems but the people executing it.

If it really was the plan that had issues, Nie Longjiao wouldn't have come out in the first place.

But what move can be played next?

Could they really kidnap Nie Longjiao and force her to comply?

Xiao Feng felt it might not be impossible, but it was a last resort. If it weren't absolutely necessary, they should try other methods.

In short, he's in a standoff with Nie Longjiao!

He wouldn't stop until he reached his goal!

Let's see who has the last laugh.

When she finally ends up in his hands, heh heh!
