Chereads / That Man Is A Girl! / Chapter 26 - 25. Little Boss

Chapter 26 - 25. Little Boss

Zhang Wuxian hovered over her, his smirk and eyes oozing malice.

"Should we take him somewhere special?" He asked loudly to his lackeys.

Following his cue, his lackeys began to install fear in her.

"Our secret spot seems like a good idea..."

"I'm sure our new friend will like it."

"We could play a game."

But alas, Chen Jingyun remained unaffected. To her, this type of play could be considered a child's game. If there was someone that should be scared, it should be them.

Chen Jingyun smiled.

"Classmate, you seem to be pretty confident. You are not scared to create more evidence?"

If there was anger, Zhang Wuxian didn't show any sights of it. Instead, he laughed.

"Classmate, do you come from a prestigious family?"

Chen Jingyun cutely shook her head. "Nope."

Zhang Wuxian only laughed even harder, his lackeys following suit.

"Classmate, is your family rich?"

"Nope."

Hearing this, Zhang Wuxian closed in on her and whispered words that froze her to the core.

"What about your parents? What do they do? Are they safe? Do they need jobs?"

This bastard...

Breaking the ice that had caged her, Chen Jingyun began to burn with anger. She understood much better why some people felt helpless even if they had everything to present to the court.

This guy... used Hong Bao's parents to threaten him.

Once he saw her expression, Zhang Wuxian smiled in satisfaction.

"See? I am untouchable. There's nothing you can do, little guy."

Turning back to his lackeys, Zhang Wuxian declared his victory.

"Take him to the back. Let's give our new friend a warm welcome."

One of the lackeys quickly stepped up and pushed her to walk. He was fat and clumsy. He seemed to be the newest addition to their group.

"Move!" The fatty pushed her.

But Chen Jingyun didn't even budge.

"What are you doing? Push him!" One of the other lackeys ridiculed him.

Huffing in annoyance, the fatty used even more force.

But she was an unmoving mountain.

Looking up, a strange smile played on Chen Jingyun's lips. It was taunting, filled with ridicule and confidence. No one could rival her presence.

For the third time, the fatty tried to push her once again, but this time, she grabbed his arm in a steady hold.

It might have been a funny sight to watch such a small and dainty hand wrapped around the fatty's arm, holding it in its place, but the sounds of groans and pain said otherwise.

"Let go of me!" The fatty voice went up a decibel.

Chen Jingyun only glanced at him with annoyance. Her eyelids lowered into a heartless slant, and eyes cold devoid of compassion. She had turned into a different person.

"Silence."

The fatty shuddered and immediately quieted down even if he was hurting.

Somehow, this guy turned out to be even scarier than his own boss...

The poor fatty glanced at his buddies, sending a message for help, but they only looked back at him with ridicule.

"Stop pretending, Fat Bo!" One of them shouted at him. "Get him!"

But Fat Bo shook his head fervently and blinked several times.

I'm not pretending at all! Save me!

But his message was unsuccessfully conveyed.

However, Chen Jingyun did let go of her iron grip. Instantly giving Fat Bo the freedom he needed.

Instead of running back to his group, Fato glanced back and forth.

On one side, his group looked at him with ridicule, booing him and spouting insults. And his boss... Zhang Wuxian didn't look too happy.

Then there was this little guy who managed to subdue him in one move. She looked weak and easy to pick on... but once she unleashed her presence. She became the strongest character in any manga he has ever seen...

Looking at her with admiration, Fat Bo swore allegiance.

"I'm sorry, great master! I will never raise a hand towards you!"

Fat Bo changed sides!

"Did you just hear Fat Bo?"

"He wants to side with the little guy!"

"Is he crazy?"

His former buddies laughed at him, but Fat Bo didn't budge. He was a loyal man!

That just changed allegiance, but that doesn't matter... cough, cough.

Zhang Wuxian, on the other hand, didn't seem amused by the situation. Instead, he was angered and offended.

"Fat Bo, are you sure you want to change sides?" Zhang Wuxian smiled dangerously.

Fat Bo only gulped.

Looking at Zhang Wuxian's smile, and sensing Chen Jingyun's presence at the same time, Fat Bo nodded firmly.

"The Little Boss is my only boss now!"

Fat Bo looked at Chen Jingyun with unyielding loyalty.

In turn, Chen Jingyun chose to ignore him. She isn't going to lead any gang any time soon.

Looking back at Zhang Wuxian, Chen Jingyun approached his turf confidently. She doesn't fear numbers. They all looked like spineless cowards.

"Zhang Wuxian is it? My parents are fine. Thanks for asking." She closed in on him, her presence domineeringly taking over the flow of the scene.

Even if his lackeys were being affected by her presence, Zhang Wuxian couldn't back down.

"Oh? Tell me about it. Do they have stable and secure jobs?" He lifted his chin in arrogance.

In response, Chen Jingyun chuckled.

"You know? You turned out to be more cowardly than I thought you were." She said truthfully.

"How so?"

She smiled.

"Why don't you try hitting me right here, right now, in front of everyone?"

"You want me to hit you?" Zhang Wuxian raised his eyebrow in disbelief.

"Are you scared of a middle-class kid?" She taunted.

By now, many eyes were already on them. Some waiting for the action, and certain others wanting to step in.

"Boss hit him already!"

"He's asking for it!"

Feeling the pressure from his lackeys and the audience, Zhang Wuxian didn't seem to make a move. His eye wandered off to the bystanders.

Smirking, Chen Jingyun shook his head at him.

"Ah, forget it, you're too scared." She sighed as she turned around and left.

"So much trouble for nothing."

Disappointed, the crowd began to holler at him making his skin burn with embarrassment. His lackeys were also insisting on him to do something.

When the kettle began to boil, Zhang Wuxian swung his fist, aiming for her head.

"Who says I'm scared?"

Before his fist could reach her, an obstructive force came crashing down on him.

"You... What do you think you are doing?"
