Rebirth of the Supreme Immortal Emperor

20: Chapter 20 The Kind-Hearted Girl!

20: Chapter 20 The Kind-Hearted Girl!

Hearing their discussion, Lan Huanxi’s pretty face blushed with embarrassment, and she whispered, “He’s just here to spend one night, nothing else is needed!”

Before Lan Huanxi’s words hit the ground, a woman who was smoking started to mock and sneer at her.

“Goodness, you’re not the worm in his belly, how would you know he doesn’t need more?”

“Exactly, you’re the only one allowed to eat meat, and you won’t even let us have a sip of soup?”

In an instant, a group of flamboyant women began to collectively jeer at Lan Huanxi.

Lan Huanxi was a distant relative of the boss lady, and due to her really difficult family circumstances, she was sent here to work and help support her family.

However, she was very stubborn, much like what Zhou Dunyi wrote in ‘Ode to the Lotus’: emerging from the mud unsullied, and washing in clear water without being enchanting.

Yet, like a koi in a pond of loaches, her ostracization by the loaches was an inevitable occurrence.

However, Lan Huanxi was still too young, not yet understanding these matters.

From falling from the school campus to this place, she already felt so wronged.

But never had she imagined, even the “sisters” here didn’t accept her, often isolating, scoffing, and ridiculing her.

All at once, Lan Huanxi felt as if half the sky had collapsed, her heart aching with bitterness and her tears couldn’t stop flowing.

Dew-like tears rolled down like pearls off a broken string.

The madam showed some compassion for family ties, yelling at the others, “Enough, each of you say less.

Huanxi is already pitiful enough, don’t mock her anymore!”

Those girls, not willing to show weakness, retorted.

“Tsk.

She’s pitiful, does that mean we’re not?

We work ourselves half to death every day, get pointed at the spine and cursed by the villagers, who has it easy?”

The boss lady, worried about angering the crowd and losing her workers, decided to quiet down.

“Huanxi, it’s already dark outside, and there likely won’t be any more customers.

Go back to your room and sleep, tomorrow morning, you still have to go up the mountain to gather herbs for your mother!”

Lan Huanxi stifled a nod, then turned to head back to her own room.

Seeing Lan Huanxi leave, Lili and the other girls ended their verbal warfare and shifted their focus back to Li Chen, who was handsome and wealthy.

They chattered about who had the greatest charm to win over this young handsome man.

However, no matter how they displayed their Divine Skills like the Eight Immortals crossing the sea,

Li Chen’s response was the same single word: Scram!

It was exactly when they were all dejected that someone suddenly broke out.

“Nobody move, this is a police raid, everyone get to the corner and squat down!”

A policewoman said to her colleagues, “You stay here and watch, I’ll go upstairs to check!”

The policewoman, named Tang Xiaoxiao, used to work at the city police station.

Her temperament was too rough, and she liked to rough up the criminals.

Just last week, she kicked a rapist so hard that she was sent away from headquarters to a local police station, to temper her character.

Upon reaching the second floor, she heard noise from a room diagonally across and kicked the door open.

Her left foot stepped out, her right foot quickly followed, and she performed a Grapple to try and grab Li Chen’s shoulder.

Seeing this, Li Chen tsk-tsked and commented, “Not bad, that Grapple technique is quite decent.

It’s just a little rough around the edges, lacking in speed and strength!”

Hearing Li Chen’s remarks, Tang Xiaoxiao was biting mad.

She was the champion of the female police academy’s combat competition, and he dared to say her Grapple was unstandard?

Li Chen slightly tilted his head, dodging Tang Xiaoxiao’s attack.

Immediately after, without waiting for her next move, his hand struck swiftly like the wind, seizing her wrist and rendering her motionless.

In no time, the two were in an ambiguous struggle on the floor, rolling and wrestling.

I try a ‘Rabbit Kicks Eagle’, you counter with a ‘Hawk Flips Over’, they were having quite the lively scuffle.

Downstairs, a few male officers heard the commotion upstairs, worried that Tang Xiaoxiao was at a disadvantage, and hurriedly rushed up.

Seeing her colleagues arrive, Tang Xiaoxiao took the opportunity to employ a ‘Rabbit Kicks Eagle’, kicking Li Chen away.

The two officers quickly moved forward and handcuffed Li Chen.

If Li Chen wanted to resist, even twenty officers couldn’t hold him.

However, this time he did not resist.

After all, we are in the information age.

If he ran away now, maybe by tomorrow morning, his portrait would be all over the internet, plastered in every alley and street.

By then, his lifetime of reputation would be completely ruined by this one incident.

He might not even be able to wash it off by jumping into the Pacific Ocean.

Besides, if Ye Chuxue got wind of this, wouldn’t that girl disdain me to death?

Tang Xiaoxiao jumped down from the bed and kicked fiercely at Li Chen.

“Ouch!”

The person who shrieked wasn’t Li Chen, but Tang Xiaoxiao.

She felt her kick was not on Li Chen’s body, but rather on an iron board, painfully jarring her foot.

Li Chen glanced over at Tang Xiaoxiao, following her fair ankle upwards, his brow slightly furrowing.

Tang Xiaoxiao saw this bastard Li Chen, at such a time, still daring to brazenly ogle her legs with his fiery eyes, and felt her anger surge.

“Have you seen enough?”

Li Chen shook his head, honestly replying, “No!”

Then, he looked up at Tang Xiaoxiao with sincere eyes and said, “Beauty, you are sick!”
