Chapter 279: Chapter 279: Hope You Like This Gift… (First Update)
The air was filled with a nauseating stench of blood.
Among the pools of blood and corpses, Wen Sinan stood proudly, his purple hair fluttering in the night breeze.
“Your Majesty, how should we deal with these bodies?” an underling asked.
Wen Sinan said indifferently, “Cut off the leader’s head and place it at the entrance of that bar!”
“Yes!”
Wen Sinan looked toward the direction of the bar, the corners of his mouth slightly curling up beneath the mask.
“I hope you will like this gift…!”
The next day.
Old Stone, following his routine, opened the doors of the bar early, only to let out a deafening scream immediately after.
Griffin, woken up by the noise, came downstairs, speaking irritably, “What the hell are you screaming about?”
Old Stone’s face was ashen white as he sat collapsed on the ground, his voice trembling, “A dead person, there’s a dead person!”
Griffin’s mouth curled, “A dead person? Since when has the City of Sin been short on dead people?”
As he said this, he turned his head to look, and then he too was stunned.
A head was placed at the entrance of the bar.
Bald, with a ferocious expression, the face still bore the fear from the moment of death!
It was the biker gang leader who had come here yesterday!
Griffin inhaled sharply.
Who did this?
At that moment, Xue An also came downstairs.
“My lord, look at this…” Griffin said with a heavy expression.
Xue An said flatly, “Dead is dead, after all, he deserved it! What’s so strange about it?”
“But… I just have this feeling that there’s something odd about it all. Could it be that woman who did it?” Griffin muttered to himself.
Xue An smiled faintly, “Whether it was her or not, we should find out soon!”
By evening, more news had come in.
The entire biker gang had been wiped out, reportedly leaving a most ghastly scene!
This news shocked everyone in the bar.
Many who had been present the day before began discussing heatedly.
“My goodness, the biker gang’s influence had been on the rise lately, and yet they were wiped out overnight!”
“Heh, what’s so surprising about that? The taller a tree stands, the more wind it will catch. The biker gang has been too arrogant lately! Drawing enemies isn’t unusual!”
“So who do you think did it?”
“I guess it might be Old Bell!”
Old Bell!
At the mention of this name, the entire bar fell silent.
In the City of Sin’s dark triumvirate, there was the Bone Picker Griffin, the Scorpion Queen Wen Sinan, and Old Bell.
But now Griffin had been driven away, the Scorpion Queen was mysterious, and only Old Bell remained active!
Especially his son, Xiao Bell, who was a notorious wastrel known throughout the City of Sin!
Many turned pale at the mention of Old Bell’s name.
Yet, there were some who disagreed, scoffing, “I don’t think it’s his doing! Old Bell has become more cautious over the years, seldom wiping out entire gangs!”
“Then who do you think it is?” someone said discontentedly.
“You… have you forgotten about that woman last night?”
The bar fell silent at the mention of that woman.
“Heh, how could that be? She’s just an ordinary woman after all, maybe even a prostitute!” someone said with a snicker.
“Right!” many echoed in agreement.
While these people were arguing endlessly, Xue An and Griffin were drinking by the bar.
Old Stone’s bartending skills were indeed good; at least Xue An was very satisfied with his drink.
Hearing the crowd’s debate, Griffin said angrily in a low voice, “That old bastard Old Bell, if it weren’t for him, I wouldn’t have been driven out!”
Xue An said nothing, continuing to drink his liquor slowly.
As the bar was bustling with the demise of the biker gang,
the door opened.
A pair of straight long legs stepped in first, followed by that familiar micro skirt and the same light purple hair.
The bar fell silent.
Everyone stared blankly at the woman.
Some even swallowed hard with difficulty, then prepared to slip away quietly.
It was Wen Sinan.
She strode over to Xue An, sat down beside him, and said indifferently to the stunned Old Stone, “Bring me a Hellfire, I was too tired last night!”
“Ah… Oh right!” Old Stone hurriedly fumbled around to mix the drink, occasionally casting frightened glances at Wen Sinan.
Even Griffin turned a shade paler, for he simply couldn’t see through this woman.
Only Xue An kept sipping his drink at a leisurely pace.
“Aren’t you curious?” Wen Sinan couldn’t help but ask.
“Curious about what?” Xue An put down his glass and turned to look at her.
“Curious about what I went through last night?” Wen Sinan asked, batting her large eyes.
Xue An smiled, “The path is yours to choose, what does it have to do with me?”
Wen Sinan was left speechless, grinding her teeth in frustration.
She had come today specifically to gauge everyone’s reaction, especially Xue An’s.
She had developed a strong curiosity about this man.
Particularly his decisive nature, which Wen Sinan greatly admired.
But to her surprise, Xue An seemed entirely indifferent to her.
That annoyed Wen Sinan.
“Hey, actually I should thank you for last night!” Wen Sinan suddenly said in a low voice.
Xue An smiled, “I’ve said, no thanks necessary!”
“Hmph, what an uncharming guy!” Wen Sinan, who was always quick-tempered, finally lost her patience and stormed off after tossing out those words.
Not until she reached the bar’s entrance did she turn back and say, “Tomorrow is my birthday, are you interested in coming?”
Xue An shook his head, “Not interested!”
“You…” Wen Sinan’s eyebrows shot up, but then she regained her composure, snorted coldly, and left.
After her departure, many people looked at Xue An with astonishment.
Some were practically green with envy.
Wen Sinan’s behavior had clearly been a hint towards Xue An!
But unexpectedly, Xue An was completely unmoved by it.
It was as if he was turning away a woman who had made the first move!
Griffin, however, wasn’t surprised.
Compared to An Yan, Wen Sinan was no different from an ugly duckling.
Still, he couldn’t help but express his curiosity, “My Lord, that woman is quite mysterious! Are you sure you don’t want to go?”
Xue An shook his head, “I can’t be bothered to go, and also, find out the exact whereabouts of the Fountain of Youth as soon as possible. I don’t have the time to keep wasting here!”
With that, he got up and went upstairs.
Outside, Wen Sinan got into her car, seething with rage.
Those inside the car shivered with fear.
They were all too aware of their queen’s temper; she was someone who could kill at the slightest provocation!
“Your Majesty, do you want us to wipe out this bar?” one of Wen Sinan’s attendants asked.
But unexpectedly, Wen Sinan slapped the attendant across the face.
The slap left the attendant with a bloodied mouth, yet they didn’t dare to raise their head.
“Speak such words again, and I’ll throw you into the Snake Pit to be devoured by thousands of snakes!”
“Yes!” the attendant replied in a trembling voice.
Wen Sinan took a deep breath, suddenly calming down, a proud smile on her lips.
“There hasn’t been a man I’ve set my sights on who could escape the palm of my hand! Even if you have a wife, it’s the same!”
