At Liu Ergou's words, Leng Shasha couldn't help but roll her eyes.
"Hmph, who says it was ineffective!" Leng Shasha said irritably. "It was clearly effective, the main problem is that you're just too incredible!"
"Going for so long without even taking a break! You're unbelievable!"
Liu Ergou just laughed at her complaint and retorted, "So, Shasha, do you like it?"
Leng Shasha nodded vigorously. "How could I not? I love it to death!"
Just as Liu Ergou was about to continue flirting with Leng Shasha, his phone began to ring.
Upon hearing the ringtone, he hung up the call without even looking.
What a joke? I'm busy, why would I answer the phone? What if sothing else cos up and interrupts ? Being interrupted is incredibly annoying, so much so that words can't describe it.
However, before Liu Ergou could put his phone down, it rang again. He hung up once more without even looking. But this ti, the phone rang even faster, almost imdiately after he hung up.
This thoroughly annoyed Liu Ergou.
"So damn annoying!" he grumbled. "Why can't they give a guy a break? Calling all day and night! I'm turning off my phone, we'll see who you can call then!"
Saying this, he moved to turn off his phone, but Leng Shasha quickly stopped him.
"Wait, Er Gou, don't turn it off yet!" she said urgently. "Look, they've called three tis now. It must be sothing urgent. Just take a look!"
"You can always turn it off if it's not important. But if it really is an ergency and you miss the call, you could regret it for the rest of your life! You wouldn't want that, would you?"
Liu Ergou had to admit she had a point. He glanced down at the caller ID. The call was from Zhang Man.
This made him raise an eyebrow. After a mont's hesitation, he answered the call.
As soon as the call connected, Zhang Man's frantic voice ca through.
"Er Gou, sothing terrible has happened! You have to save !"
Hearing the anxiety in Zhang Man's voice, Liu Ergou knew she was really in trouble.
He said hastily, "Xiaoman, calm down. Tell what happened. If you can't explain over the phone, co find ! I'm at..."
Just as Liu Ergou was telling her his location, the call was disconnected.
「About ten minutes later.」
The doorbell to Leng Shasha's villa rang. Liu Ergou quickly went to open the door.
A frantic-looking Zhang Man stood outside. The mont she saw Liu Ergou open the door, she threw herself into his arms.
"Xiaoman, calm down. Let's get you inside first, then you can tell everything," Liu Ergou said, holding her.
With that, Liu Ergou led Zhang Man into the living room. Upon entering, Zhang Man saw a naked Leng Shasha, and her face imdiately flushed red.
Seeing the blushing Zhang Man, Liu Ergou laughed. "Don't be shy, Xiaoman. Just say what's on your mind. We're all friends here, no need to hold back."
At Liu Ergou's words, Zhang Man could no longer be bothered with shyness and blurted out, "Er Gou, this is bad! Do you rember Sun Gang? Sun Yunxing's brother?"
Liu Ergou nodded. "I rember him. What about Sun Gang?"
"Sun Gang... he wants to et !" Zhang Man said, her voice choked with tears. "He told I have to go see him alone!"
Hearing this, Liu Ergou's brows furrowed. Sun Gang, huh!
Before he could dwell on it, Leng Shasha gasped, "Ah, Sun Gang?!" She turned to Liu Ergou. "Er Gou, what's happening? How did you get on the wrong side of Sun Gang? That man is not soone to be trifled with!"
"I didn't do anything to him, but I had a run-in with his younger brother, Sun Yunxing. Now Sun Gang has co looking for because of it," Liu Ergou explained. "I know he's bad news, but I refuse to believe he's tougher than Mi Xiaoying!"
Leng Shasha shook her head. "Er Gou, you don't understand. This Sun Gang is extrely ruthless. Let put it this way: he and Mi Xiaoying are not in the sa league."
"Two Mi Xiaoyings wouldn't stand a chance against one Sun Gang."
"Look, Mi Xiaoying is a woman. At the end of the day, she has so moral principles, a line she won't cross. But Sun Gang is different. That guy is barely human. He's an absolute animal with no bottom line whatsoever. Pissing him off is asking for a world of trouble!"
Leng Shasha's words took Liu Ergou by surprise. He knew from Zhang Man that Sun Gang was bad news, but he never expected Leng Shasha to claim that two Mi Xiaoyings wouldn't be a match for him.
If that's the case, then this really is a huge problem.
Before Liu Ergou could say anything, Leng Shasha asked, "Er Gou, if I'm not mistaken, you've already t Sun Gang, and he's made so kind of demand, right?"
Liu Ergou nodded and repeated Sun Gang's demands to Leng Shasha.
After she finished listening, her face fell. "Damn, I was hoping he just wanted money. If it was just about money, you could pay him off. But I never expected a demand that outrageous! I'm afraid I can't help with this."
Hearing her words, Liu Ergou reached out and patted her head. "Alright, Shasha, you don't need to worry about this. He's just one man. Don't be afraid. I'm here for you, and I'll handle whatever cos. Even if the sky falls, I'll be here to hold it up."
Having said that, Liu Ergou put on his clothes and took Zhang Man's hand. "Xiaoman, you don't need to be afraid either. He's just Sun Gang, right? I'll go with you to et him. I'd like to see what he can possibly do. It's not like he can turn the world upside down!"
Hearing Liu Ergou's comforting words, Zhang Man couldn't hold back any longer. She threw herself into his arms and began to sob quietly. Liu Ergou said nothing, just gently stroked her head.
Truth be told, I'm not really afraid of this Sun Gang. I put Mi Xiaoying in her place, so how bad can he be? Even if he's more formidable than her, I'm not the least bit scared. So what if Sun Gang has no principles? I have plenty of my own thods, subtle tricks that no one would ever suspect. I just prefer not to use them unless it's absolutely necessary.
As Liu Ergou mulled this over, Zhang Man's crying subsided and she began to calm down.
