Chapter 262: Fighting With Wits And Courage
Outside a car repair shop, Min Sisi placed her hands in the pockets of her down jacket and said apologetically to the two people in front of her, “I’m sorry. I’m a little rusty from not driving for too long. Did I scare you guys?”
“It’s fine. However, Eldest Miss Min’s car…”
“It’s fine. The collision wasn’t serious either. Otherwise, we wouldn’t have driven over to repair it ourselves. Instead, we would have called the traffic police to handle it. Fortunately, I reacted quickly at the last minute and quickly changed direction. I hit the railing and not someone else’s car. Otherwise, the follow-up would be even more troublesome.”
“I hope that you guys weren’t frightened. I was a little frightened. Please excuse me.”
“Miss Min, you’re being too polite?” Luo Qiu continued to be polite with her.
“Miss Luo, I still have some lingering fears. I want to sit here and rest. Can I please trouble you to go to the small shop over there to buy me a bottle of water?”
Huh?
Luo Qiu was stunned.
Buy water?
She looked at Luo Yikun.
Didn’t they usually call the guys to do this? Why did she ask her?
Just as she was feeling puzzled, Luo Yikun said to her, “I’m a racer and know the parts of the car better. Let me go and tell the boss what kind of parts to use so that the boss won’t use the inferior ones.”
Luo Qiu was even more puzzled.
Since it was the Min Family’s car and not theirs, when did Luo Yikun become so kind?
Besides, did the Min Family lack that bit of money?
Perhaps, they wouldn’t care about a car at all.
However, although she was puzzled, she could not decline since they had already said so much. “Alright, I’ll go buy it now. Second Brother, do you want it too?”
“Buy me a bottle too.”
Luo Qiu left.
Min Sisi’s expression changed before she even went far.
Her gentle and generous smile faded, and her expression was serious and her eyes became sharp. “Let’s talk over here.”
Luo Yikun frowned slightly. He didn’t like others to speak to him in such a commanding tone, “Miss Min, if you have anything to say, just say it here. There’s no one else here.”
Min Sisi stopped in her tracks and then sized him up carefully.
The more she sized him up, the deeper her frown became.
She knew that Luo Yikun was not a hedonistic son, but she did not expect him to be so bold as to speak to her like this.
Luo Yikun didn’t dodge and let her size him up.
He did not have any other ability but he was the most tactful. The reason why he was tactful was because he cherished his life and never wanted to offend anyone whom he shouldn’t provoke.
Just like all these years in North City, he loved women and had gone through countless women. He clearly had feelings for Yan Jinyun, but he had never acted on them.
Because the Yan Family had some status in North City, and Yan Jinyun was a smart person.
He didn’t want to get himself into trouble.
Later on, when he saw Yan Jinyu, he also had thoughts about her. However, he hid them all. After confirming that Yan Jinyu wasn’t someone to be provoked and confirming that Master Nine really valued Yan Jinyu, he never had any thoughts about her anymore.
It was the same now. He could tell that Min Sisi had ill intentions towards Yan Jinyu. He didn’t want to be involved in it, so he didn’t want to respond to Min Sisi.
However…
With her hands in her pockets, her attitude was very nonchalant. “Miss Min, why are you looking at me like that? If you have anything to say, just say it.”
“Don’t you know me?”
“Look at what Eldest Miss Min is saying. You’re the Eldest Miss of the Min Family. Qiu’s cousin even specially introduced you. We’re still standing here alone talking. How can we not know each other?”
“Don’t beat around the bush with me. You know what I’m talking about.”
Luo Yikun stopped smiling casually and looked at her, “Since Miss Min knows that I’m beating around the bush, why ask so much?”
Min Sisi didn’t expect Luo Yikun to actually dare to treat her with such an attitude. She was very unhappy, “How dare you talk to me like this? Didn’t Yu Quan teach you the rules?”
Yu Quan was the Old Master of the Yu Family in the capital, Yu Chen’s paternal grandfather, and Luo Qiu’s maternal grandfather.
“Rules? Eldest Miss Min, what you’re saying is really interesting. My surname is Luo, not Yu. Why do I need Old Master Yu to teach me rules?”
“However, it’s true that I owe Eldest Aunt a favor. If Eldest Aunt hadn’t tried her best to protect me, I wouldn’t be standing here today. Old Master Yu had taught me a lot of things in the early years, so I owe the Yu Family a favor.”
“It’s just that the favor I owe the Yu Family doesn’t seem to have anything to do with Eldest Miss Min.”
“Of course, with Old Master Yu’s relationship with Eldest Miss Min, since the old master has personally spoken, in order to return the Yu Family’s favor, I can help Eldest Miss Min do three tasks when necessary. As for which of the three tasks, the decision isn’t with Eldest Miss Min, but with me.”
“Eldest Miss Min, you can tell me what favors you want me to help with, but whether I agree or not depends on my mood. This is my agreement with Old Master Yu.”
Of course, that was a lie.
Old Master Yu had never said that.
What Old Master Yu said was that other than his eldest aunt who saved him, another person had also saved him. It was the person who had taught him skills since he was young.
He called him Master.
Other than him, his master had another disciple, Min Sisi.
Therefore, Min Sisi was his junior sister.
They all said that it was only right for a senior brother to help his junior sister.
Screw that. He was used to being lazy and cherished his life. He would return the favor to whoever he owed. What did it have to do with Min Sisi?
Furthermore, Min Sisi was not afraid of death and especially went to provoke those people whom she could not afford to offend.
What senior brother and junior sister? This was their first time meeting each other today. He did not think that their relationship was deep enough for them to live and die together.
However, since Old Master Yu and his master had already spoken, it was fine for him to help Min Sisi. However, it depended on his mood to decide what to help her.
“So, Eldest Miss Min, you’d better get this straight. You and I are not superior and subordinate. I don’t have to listen to you.”
“Did Yu Quan agree with you?” Min Sisi sneered, “Yu Quan wouldn’t dare to make this decision without an order.”
Luo Yikun paused and sized Min Sisi up.
She had been calling Old Master Yu by his full name since the beginning, and her tone was even like this.
Why did it seem like Old Master Yu was her subordinate?
Old Master Yu didn’t tell him that. Old Master Yu only said that Min Sisi was someone he treated as his granddaughter and was under the same master as him. He wanted him to help Min Sisi more on the account of him and his master.
It seemed like they were not telling him the truth!
It was fine if they didn’t tell the truth, but they didn’t even string the confession with Min Sisi. Weren’t they afraid that he would find out?
Or could it be that in their opinion, his intelligence was not high enough to discover this? Or could it be that they were fearless and felt that it was fine even if he found out?
“Is that so? I’m not sure about that. Perhaps you can ask Old Master Yu. Anyway, that’s what he told me.”
“Luo Yikun, I won’t talk nonsense with you now. I just take it that what you said is true. Then, help me do the first task now.”
Luo Yikun looked at her, “Oh? Miss Min, tell me about it.”
“Help me find out who placed the pinhole camera in the car! Then, get rid of that person!”
Min Sisi was indeed the one who discovered the camera. Min Sisi even used the opportunity to throw out something that looked like a flying dagger when the car swayed and hit the railing by the roadside and destroyed it accurately.
Min Sisi was not sure if the camera was installed by someone before or after they went to Mei Feng Bar.
On the way to Mei Feng, her thoughts were all on something else and she did not pay much attention to it when Min Nan was driving.
“That’s two tasks, right?” Luo Yikun asked with a smile.
Min Sisi was furious. Since she didn’t want others to discover her, she naturally couldn’t make a move personally. And the only person she could use now was Luo Yikun. She had no choice but to suppress her anger. “Fine, take it as two tasks! If you dare to ruin this matter, Luo Yikun, you’ll die very miserably.”
“Are you threatening me?”
Min Sisi didn’t deny it. “That’s right. I’m threatening you.”
Luo Yikun’s aura was not weak either. “Min Sisi, it’s true that I’m afraid of death, but I hate to be threatened the most. I was prepared to help you do this, but now that you’re threatening me. I’m in a bad mood, so I don’t intend to agree.”
Min Sisi took off her glasses. Without them, she was not as gentle and obedient as before. She smiled disdainfully, “You don’t agree?”
“Look back and see who’s walking over now?”
As she spoke, Min Sisi calmly took out a handkerchief to wipe her glasses before putting them on again.
Luo Yikun frowned and turned around. The person he saw was none other than Luo Qiu, who had gone to buy water. He was furious. “Min Sisi, don’t you dare touch her!”
“To be honest, there’s really nothing that I, Min Sisi, don’t dare to do. It depends on what you do if you don’t want me to touch her.”
Luo Yikun was furious and was about to attack.
Min Sisi calmly took two steps back and said calmly, “Second Young Master Luo, don’t be rash. I might not be as smart as you, but in terms of martial arts skills, you might not be able to beat me.”
“Besides, Second Young Master Luo wouldn’t want Miss Luo to know that you have such an unknown side, right?”
Luo Yikun violently halted his actions to attack her.
“Alright! I’ll help you investigate! However, I’m only responsible for investigating. I won’t help you get rid of the other party. Min Sisi, don’t push your luck. If you forced me into a dead end, no one will get anything out of it.”
“That’s right. I do care about my cousin’s safety, but I only care about it in the capital. After all, I’m the one who accompanied her to the capital this time. If something happens to her in the capital, it won’t be easy for me to answer. When I send her safely back to North City, her life and death will have nothing to do with me. At that time, I’ll be alone. If we really have to fight, Min Sisi, whose losses do you think will be greater?”
Min Sisi frowned deeply.
She had never expected Luo Yikun to have such an attitude towards Luo Qiu.
Didn’t they say that Luo Yikun treats Luo Qiu very well?
“Did you think I said that on purpose so that you wouldn’t threaten me with my cousin?”
Luo Yikun sneered, “Min Sisi, do you think I look like the kind of person who would sacrifice myself for others?”
“Qiu and I have a good relationship, and I do treat Qiu like my biological younger sister. But if I have to choose between Qiu’s life and my life, how do you think I will choose?”
“Similarly, I care about my parents very much, but if I have to choose between my life and my parents’ lives, I will definitely choose mine.”
“You have to believe me. I’m really such a selfish person.”
“If you force me into a corner, Min Sisi, we’ll both die together. All your plans will be for naught then.”
At this moment, Luo Yikun looked ruthless.
He didn’t look like he was joking.
He really valued himself more than anyone else.
Such a person who cherished his life and hated being threatened might really become her enemy if he was forced into a corner.
Min Sisi gritted her teeth. “Alright! Help me find out who it is. You don’t have to do anything else!”
“However, Luo Yikun, remember this. You still have to do two tasks for me!”
Luo Yikun chuckled. “Of course.”
Min Sisi seemed to be only so-so.
Perhaps she really had some ability, but she wanted too many things. Or rather, her desire was too much. Such a person’s weakness was very obvious.
He dared to say that if the person threatening him was Yan Jinyu, his words earlier would definitely be useless against Yan Jinyu.
“However, I still get to decide what the two tasks are.”
“You—!”
“Miss Min, don’t be agitated. I was about to help you investigate who installed the surveillance cameras. If you scare me like this, my hand will slip and I’ll suddenly can’t find out anything. Don’t blame me then.”
As he spoke, he waved the phone in his hand.
Min Sisi was furious.
