Chapter 770: Sniped On the Street
Tang Jing ca back to her senses after Chu Xia called out to her. Then she looked at Chu Xia awkwardly and said, “Sorry, I was a little distracted just now.”
Chu Xia ran her fingers through her hair, revealing her beautiful collarbone and neck. Then, she said, “It’s alright. You don’t look so good, are you feeling sick?”
Hearing Chu Xia’s words, Tang Xiaomi raised her head in concern and looked up at her mother before she asked coquettishly, “Mommy? Are you sick?”
Tang Jing forced a smile. “No. it’s because I slept a little late last night.”
After saying that, her gaze fell on Chu Xia’s face and she was stunned for a mont. Then, she could not help but recall the news she had seen in the past few days. ‘She... Seems like Su Yang’s rumored girlfriend, doesn’t she?’
At the thought of this, she could not help but glance at Su Yang again.
However, halfway through, she rembered that the “main character” was still in front of her, so she hurriedly retracted her gaze and said, “I would like to buy two glass phones.”
Chu Xia took in all of Tang Jing’s expressions, but there was no change on her face. However, her heart had waves crashing within like a tsunami.
She said, “Sure, that would be a total of 17,998 yuan. How would you like to pay?”
Tang Jing opened her bag hurriedly and took out a card. “Card.”
Chu Xia nodded. “Okay.”
After swiping her card and taking her glass phone. Tang Jing nudged Tang Xiaomi lightly. “Let’s go, Xiaomi.”
Tang Xiaomi looked up and pouted. “Mommy, I want to play with Su Yang.”
Tang Jing did not dare to look at Chu Xia and softly said, “Su Yang is busy right now, so let’s... Let’s...”
The quick-witted Tang Xiaomi finally realized that sothing was wrong with the atmosphere. Hence, she made an “Oh” sound and followed Tang Jing with a pout.
Watching the two of them leave, Chu Xia frowned slightly, but she was quickly wiped away by her busy work...
The morning sales soon ca to an end. Since the glass phones were all manually bought and there were only six counters being manned at the sa ti, only 3,000 glass phones were sold in two hours.
At the ti, there were only 7,000 units of glass phones left in the storehouse, so it looked like they would be sold out in three or four hours. Therefore, the employees did not take a break, but continued to work.
Thus, after working hard for the entire morning, Su Yang’s “show” ended and he did not continue. Instead, he gave his employees a few words of encouragent before leaving the counter with Chu Xia.
After that, the two of them rested for a while in the store’s lounge and drank so water. Chu Xia looked at Su Yang... She wanted to ask him about Tang Xiaomi’s mother several tis, but she did not say anything in the end.
At the sa ti, Su Yang was too tired to notice anything unusual about her as well.
So, after resting for more than 10 minutes, Su Yang offered to go out for dinner. Hence, Chu Xia forced a smile on her face and nodded in agreent.
At the sa ti, on the rooftop far away, the Fox Hunter, who had been standing by at the sa place for two hours, had already set up his heavy sniper rifle and was aiming at the door of the glass phone store...
...
Shanghai was located in the south, and because it was near the sea, there would be a rainy season every year.
Coincidentally, it was mid-May at the ti, which was the ti of the rainy season.
Hence, the rain continued to fall for a whole day. Even though there was a sign that the rain was getting lighter, it didn’t feel like it was going to be sunny anyti soon.
When Su Yang and Chu Xia ca out of the shop, Jia Xiaoqian was already waiting at the entrance with an umbrella.
After standing under the umbrella, Su Yang and Chu Xia walked towards the car.
On the rooftop, the Fox Hunter looked through his scope and aid his long muzzle towards Su Yang.
The crosshairs in the scope remained unmoved, while Su Yang was slowly walking within the range towards the crosshairs.
The Fox Hunter’s entire body was like a statue, staying completely still. At the sa ti, the cigarette in his mouth slowly burned, leaving behind a gray ash as a faint smoke floated upwards. On top of that, the Fox Hunter’s face remained expressionless...
As Su Yang got closer and closer, the Fox Hunter’s body beca more tense and still. His mind was calculating how the rain and wind would affect his shot and he adjusted the angle bit by bit. Then... his finger on the trigger tightened.
Through the scope, he could almost see the young billionaire’s head exploding. Apart from that, he could almost see the woman beside the billionaire screaming and panicking. It was like he could see blood splattering everywhere and filling the entire street under the rain.
At that mont, he felt that his ntal strength had reached its peak, while Su Yang was only two steps away from reaching the crosshairs!
Thus, the Fox Hunter’s index finger was tensed, and he was about to slowly pull the trigger.
In the end... At that critical mont!
Suddenly...
Su Yang turned around and walked back. In an instant, he had escaped from the best shooting angle that the Fox Hunter had calculated.
The Fox Hunter frowned. ‘What’s going on? Why did the prey suddenly turn back? Has he discovered that I’m here?’
At that thought, he loosened his fingers and raised his head to look at Su Yang. He wanted to know why Su Yang wanted to go back.
Suddenly, Su Yang turned around and looked at the rooftop.
At that very mont, their eyes t.
Thus, the Fox Hunter’s heart skipped a beat. ‘Has my position really been exposed?
‘But... How?!’
The Fox Hunter could not figure it out no matter how hard he tried. Hence, without any hesitation, he prepared to give up on the mission and escape!
“Mission failed! Retreat!”
However, as soon as he stood up to escape, the sky was suddenly illuminated!
Then, a huge bolt of lightning crossed the sky, pierced through the dark clouds, lit up the rain, and struck straight at him!
At that mont, the Fox Hunter looked up in horror, wanting to dodge!
However, his body could not keep up with his mind! Hence, he felt like ti had slowed down at the ti. Although his mind was clear and he wanted to leave and run, but... His body just would not listen to him!
After that, there was a “Crack”... And the Fox Hunter was struck by lightning!
At that mont, there was only one thought in his mind. ‘This coincidental?’ After that, it was followed by a sharp pain in his body. Finally, his body was charred black as he collapsed into the rain.
“Boom!” The lightning arrived earlier than the thunder, which resulted in a loud boom resounding throughout the entire Shanghai!
The pedestrians on the road and those waiting in line for the glass phone were so scared that they shivered. Even their heads dropped unknowingly.
“Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep! Beep!” “Eeee Oooo Eeeee Oooo!” Countless police sirens began to blare because of the lightning. Coupled with the rain, it was like a symphony was being played.
At the sa ti, Chu Xia was also shocked by the thunder. Hence, she grabbed Su Yang in a panic like a frightened rabbit.
Then, Su Yang reached out to protect her and said, “It’s alright. It’s just thunder.”
Chu Xia nodded and carefully looked up at the sky. She said, “It’s so strange. I even looked at the weather forecast. It said that there would be a thunderstorm last night, but only light drizzle today. So, why is there thunder out of nowhere?”
Su Yang smiled. “Perhaps the forecast was inaccurate.”
After saying that, he said, “Let’s get in the car and get sothing to eat first.”
Chu Xia nodded and obediently got into the car.
After getting into the car, Chu Xia suddenly thought of sothing. “Hmm? Didn’t you say that you needed to go back to the store to get your glass phone for your friend? Don’t you need it anymore?”
Su Yang shook his head. “Nope, I just rembered that I have a spare at ho.”
Hearing this, Chu Xia nodded and got into the car obediently.
Then, the car drove away from Jiadian Mobile.
While the car was driving, Su Yang took out his glass phone and tapped on it twice before an input box appeared.
After that, he typed. ‘Little Deeny, have you found it?’
A mont later, a reply ca on top. ‘It’s been retrieved. Don’t worry, Master.’
Relieved, Su Yang put his glass phone away.
Actually, when they were discussing last night, Su Yang, Little Deeny, and Zhao Licheng were a little worried about Su Yang’s safety. After all, in the video, the youth in hip-hop clothes had clearly said that he wanted to deal with Su Yang.
After all, the word “deal with” was very subtle, and there were many ways to interpret it. However, their first reaction was still related to personal safety.
Therefore, the three of them decided to protect Su Yang throughout the day. Even Janet was transferred back from the Atlantic Ocean and turned into water to protect Su Yang.
In the morning, everything went smoothly without any incidents, so even Su Yang had lowered his guard.
However, the mont he left the store, Su Yang’s [Eye of Origins] was triggered.
Little Deeny, who already had 18 cores, instantly noticed the gunman aiming at the rooftop.
Imdiately, an alarm sounded in the virtual space, and Su Yang heard Little Deeny’s terrified warning, telling him to hide as much as he could.
However, Su Yang was a bold person, so he told Little Deeny not to panic. Instead, he asked her to calculate the angle and position of the person. Then, he told Chu Xia that he wanted to go back to get sothing.
With that, he led Chu Xia back inside naturally.
Within those two seconds, Little Deeny found the shooter’s location and sent a map to Su Yang.
After Su Yang confird his location, he turned around and looked at the sniper. Then, he used his Lightning Battery to cause a lightning in the sky to strike him to death.
After that, Su Yang asked Little Deeny to guide Janet to dispose of the sniper’s body. Firstly, it would be easier for him to investigate on his own. Secondly, it would prevent the body from falling into the hands of others and attract their attention.
Hence, Little Deeny followed Su Yang’s orders.
Even though Su Yang appeared calm throughout the entire incident, he was actually sweating. After all, he had heard from Little Deeny that the enemy was wielding a heavy sniper rifle.
At such a close distance, once the shot was fired, the consequences would be unimaginable.
However, he could not imdiately show any signs of abnormality because he did not know if it would trigger the other party to shoot him directly. Hence, he could only pretend that nothing had happened and turn around to make the enemy hesitate, giving himself ti to counterattack.
Fortunately, Su Yang made the right bet...
...
The entire journey back ho was silent. When they arrived at the western restaurant that was reserved beforehand, Su Yang accompanied Chu Xia for lunch.
During the al, Chu Xia looked at Su Yang from ti to ti, trying to read his thoughts from his expression.
However, after looking around for a long ti, she realized that there was sothing wrong with Su Yang. ‘He seems distracted.
‘Su Yang was in a good mood this morning. However, ever since he t the woman beside Tang Xiaomi, he’s been acting strange.
‘I can’t help but recall how that woman looked at Su Yang affectionately.
‘For a mont there, my mind was a little confused...
‘Did sothing really happen between them?’
Chu Xia felt like she was in a ss.
On one hand, she felt that she should trust Su Yang and not suspect him. On the other, her instincts told her that the way that beautiful woman looked at Su Yang was not right, and Su Yang was not being normal either. ‘There might be sothing wrong between the two of them...’
Both of them had their own thoughts, and they were a little dispirited during the al.
After the al, Su Yang did not request to continue with the date and only said that he had to settle so matters at the company.
Chu Xia obediently agreed. She also felt that her heart was in a ss and wanted to go ho to sort it out.
Hence, he got the chauffeur to send Chu Xia ho first. After waving goodbye to Chu Xia, he returned to the hotel.
Back at the hotel, Su Yang entered the virtual space, where Little Deeny and Janet were already waiting there.
In the living room of the castle was a charred corpse and a heavy sniper rifle.
Su Yang picked up the rifle, which was cold and heavy like a piece of heavy tal.
Then, Su Yang carried it on his shoulder and tested it. Then, he heard the Clown Sea Serpent’s voice behind him. “Master, how could you do this yourself? Leave this kind of manual work to !
“That thing is heavy and dangerous. Even professional snipers have to set it up on the ground to use it.”
‘The Cloud Sea Serpent?’
Su Yang turned around curiously and saw the Clown Sea Serpent walking in.
Su Yang put down his sniper rifle and asked, “Why are you back?”
The Clown Sea Serpent grinned and said, “Sister Deeny called back. She said she might need my help next.”
“Oh?” Su Yang looked at Little Deeny.
Little Deeny seed to have matured a little since she obtained 5. THen, she had a bun on her head and was wearing an OL outfit. She also wore a pair of glasses, and she looked like she was wearing a uniform.
Then, she nodded and said, “Master, I’m the one who called the Clown Sea Serpent back.
“I have a feeling that the Clown Sea Serpent would be better at dealing with people like him.
“Also, I don’t want you to dirty your hands.”
Su Yang thought about it for a while and agreed. ‘I’m not good at interrogation indeed.’
On the other hand, in the master mode for [Burning Reincarnation Circus], where other little monsters other than Su Yang and the monsters that were resurrected from within could not enter...
After Su Yang decided that the Clown Sea Serpent would be the one doing the interrogation, Su Yang did not bring anyone with him except for the Clown Sea Serpent into the circus.
When they arrived at the circus, Su Yang sat at the host’s seat while the Clown Sea Serpent looked at everything in the circus with a nostalgic smile. “This place sure does bring back mories.”
Su Yang took a glance at him and felt that it was not too much to call him a lunatic. ‘This place is filled with endless fighting and reincarnations. So, even if I’m a pervert, I wouldn’t want to co in.
Picking up the circus’s booklet, Su Yang called out to the sniper.
When he was calling, Su Yang found out that the man’s na was Hu Yan through the circus booklet, which was a feminine na. On the other hand, his nickna was the Fox Hunter.
Then, Su Yang clicked on [Summon], and a man with a long face, beard, and ssy hair appeared on the circus stage instantly. ‘He looks like the Clown Sea Serpent.’
Without waiting for Su Yang’s order, the Clown Sea Serpent jumped onto the circus stage and looked at the person in front of him. “Consider yourself unlucky to have t . Tell the mastermind and I’ll let you choose a way to die.”
