"Oh? So you want to protect him? Aren't you afraid that I might change my mind and not let you leave?" Ningchuan looked at Dan Jian with a smile that wasn't really a smile.
Dan Rou's face immediately changed, "Jian, you don't..."
But Dan Jian blurted out, "Brother Ning, Qin has helped me, and we have some friendship. If I just leave like this, it would seem like I lack loyalty!"
"Jian, shut up!" Dan Rou was shocked.
Dan Jian shook his head, "Sis, as a wandering swordsman, I rely on loyalty. If I don't uphold loyalty, then..."
"You're talking nonsense! What era is it now? Where is there still a 'wandering swordsman'?" Dan Rou was furious, scolding him relentlessly.
Dan Jian was about to be forcefully dragged away by Dan Rou again, but Ningchuan nodded and said, "There are still 'wandering swordsman,' of course. Wherever there are people, there is a 'wandering swordsman.' It has nothing to do with the era."
Dan Jian's eyes lit up, "Oh? Brother Ning, I also think the same! We really share similar views! Of course, I'm not saying I'm a hero, I have self-awareness about that. What I mean is, our values align. How about we be friends?"
Ningchuan smiled. This Dan Jian was quite interesting, but he still shook his head and said, "I have few friends, and I generally don't make friends."
"That's okay. I'll consider you my friend unilaterally. As for whether you consider me a friend or not, that's up to you. Look, I already consider you my friend, so can you spare my friend?" Dan Jian said again.
Dan Jian wasn't really naive. He had been waiting here for Ningchuan for a while.
At this moment, Qin, who was kneeling in front of Ningchuan, began to beg again.
"Mr. Ning, I know I was wrong. I truly know I was wrong. I promise I won't dare to do it again! Please spare my life for the sake of Young Master Jian!"
Qin was a dwarf, barely reaching 1.2 meters in height. Now, he was kneeling in front of Ningchuan, giving Ningchuan a strange feeling: the person kneeling in front of him was a friend.
"Get up, but don't appear in front of me again."
Ningchuan said calmly, finally giving up on the idea of killing Qin since he seemed to have learned his lesson.
Since Qin knew better now, there was no need for him to die.
"Yes, yes, thank you, Mr. Ning, thank you, Mr. Ning!" Qin immediately felt relieved, standing up and nodding repeatedly.
His heart, which had been held up, finally relaxed.
"Ning, I've made this friend, Dan Jian! How about we sit down and have a drink?" Dan Jian suggested.
"No need."
Ningchuan's voice turned cold as he walked towards the exit of the KTV.
"Ning..." Dan Jian was about to catch up.
But Dan Rou pulled him back and coldly said, "Don't chase after him. Aren't you afraid of saying something wrong and making him change his mind?"
"Uh..." Dan Jian nodded and didn't chase after him. Instead, he curiously asked, "Sis, who is this Ningchuan? Why are you so afraid of him?"
Dan Jian's words caught Qin's attention.
"It's not that I'm afraid of him, but someone above me told me that if I provoke him, the consequences would be something I can't handle," Dan Rou said slowly.
"What? Sis, aren't you always biased towards your subordinates? Since she's like that... Does that mean even she can't afford to provoke Ningchuan?" Dan Jian was shocked.
"Shut up! Is this the place to talk about it?" Dan Rou slapped Dan Jian on the back of his head.
Dan Jian immediately closed his mouth.
Meanwhile, Qin, who was standing on the side, was already drenched in cold sweat. He looked at Dan Rou, who was giving him an unfriendly look, and stuttered, "Sis, I... I don't understand anything... I won't cause trouble outside..."
"If you leak a single word, Mr. Ning won't kill you. I can do it for him," Dan Rou said coldly.
"Yes..."
Qin's entire body went weak with fear.
...
Outside the KTV, most of the classmates had already left. Only Ji Xingyu, Wang Xianmin, Zuo Enhua, and two female students, Jiang Churan and Jiang Yuqi, were still waiting anxiously, discussing whether to report to the police.
"Boss!"
When they saw Ningchuan coming out, Ji Xingyu and the others were overjoyed and went up to greet him.
Jiang Churan and Jiang Yuqi also breathed a sigh of relief.
"Boss, how did it go? Did that guy give you a hard time? How did he let you go?" Ji Xingyu asked.
When they left, Qin had already taken out a gun, so they naturally assumed that Ningchuan couldn't possibly be Qin's match and must have been released by Qin.
"That Qin knelt down and begged me in the end, so I spared him and came out," Ningchuan honestly said.
"What?"
Ji Xingyu and the others were stunned and exchanged glances, finding it hard to believe.
"Ningchuan, stop bragging. That dead dwarf had a gun in his hand. Even if you're skilled, you can't possibly be a match for a gun! You must have knelt down and begged for mercy to come out, right? But it's okay, so many classmates knelt down tonight. If you kneel down in front of a gun, it's not embarrassing," Jiang Yuqi said, shaking her head.
Jiang Churan also showed a trace of disappointment on her face.
Originally, she still thought highly of Ningchuan and had some favorable impression of him.
Even if Ningchuan had to kneel down in the face of a gun, it would be understandable and forgivable.
But now Ningchuan came out and lied to them, Jiang Churan couldn't help but look down on him.
She disliked boys who lied and bragged the most!
"Alright, since everyone is fine, let's go back to school first. The dormitory will close soon," Ji Xingyu quickly defused the situation.
Ningchuan didn't care and said, "Okay, you guys go back to school. I'm going home."
After speaking, he turned and left.
He didn't care whether others believed him or not.
Tonight, the moon was full, and Ningchuan had nothing to do, so he decided to walk home.
On the way, he passed through a strange street.
It was already past eleven at night, but the doors on both sides of this street were still open.
Moreover, these doors were peculiar, all lit with pink lights!
At the door, there were people sitting or standing, each of them wearing revealing clothes.
Ningchuan chuckled. He didn't expect to accidentally wander into the red-light district of Jiangcheng tonight.
"Hey handsome, come in and have some fun?"
"Big brother, come in and have some fun. We can do anything here!"
One after another, the provocatively dressed women waved at Ningchuan, using a sweet and seductive tone.
Ningchuan was about to quickly walk out of this street when he suddenly saw a woman standing not far ahead, in front of a pink-lit door.
She was wearing an ultra-short skirt and had a perfect figure.
That woman was revealingly dressed and seductively posing. Her figure surpassed all the other women on this street, elevating her by two or three levels!
Ningchuan couldn't help but be drawn to that woman's appearance.
The face of that woman belonged to Mu Wanqing!
"This woman..."
Ningchuan frowned. Could it be that this hot police flower, Mu Wanqing, is actually doing this kind of part-time job at night?
