Chapter 21: Ruthless
1756 Words
I was pacing back and forth in the private room, feeling very restless and agitated. I felt like I was so tense that I was about to explode.
I've never been this nervous before. I feel my hands shaking, my body trembling, and this unnatural feeling is taking over, making me restless and uneasy.
At my most anxious moment, Xiao Mi walked in. After watching her come in, I walked over, nervously reached out, and awkwardly hugged her. I needed a hug. I held her stiffly, making her seem a bit strange, but as she gently patted my back, my tense body felt warmth.
"I never thought their world was like this, never thought about it," I said uneasily.
Xiao Mi hugged me tightly and said, "Yes, are you scared?"
I nodded. I was afraid of this kind of danger; it really was like a knife at any moment. I just wanted to make money, just wanted to get ahead.
Xiao Mi pulled me onto the sofa and said, "Being afraid is useless. The more afraid you are, the more others will bully you because they know you're scared and won't fight back. In this world, only being tough matters. The tougher you are, the more others will respect you. The tougher you are, the more others will fear you."
I looked at Xiaomi, she held my face, very sincerely. I now feel that I'm not even as good as a woman. Xiaomi stroked my hair and said, "If you want to survive on this ship sailing through the storm, you must have enough capital. If you're willing to join my ship, I guarantee we can surpass Brother Guang."
But I still pushed Xiao Mi away and said, "Do you want me to surpass Brother Guang? Or do you want to take revenge on him?"
Xiao Mi looked at me and said, "I don't want to talk about it here. Can you come home with me? Let's relax a bit."
She pulled me up from the sofa, and I followed her aimlessly. Right now, I feel like a soulless puppet, anyone can control me.
When we went out, Xiao Mi hailed a taxi. We got in, Xiao Mi gave an address, and then leaned back on the seat. I looked at Xiao Mi; I had never really scrutinized her before, always seeing her as a tool for relaxation. But she was not simple; she harbored a heart full of vengeance.
She looked at me staring at her, her face turning a bit red. I couldn't tell if it was because of the alcohol or if she was just shy, but looking at Xiaomi's blushing, shy expression!
I felt my throat was very dry, so I lowered my head and pressed my parched lips against hers, and she didn't back down either.
"Mm... mm..." Xiao Mi tightly hugged me with both hands, occasionally making faint sounds of resistance.
Maybe my strength was too much, so it made her a bit uncomfortable, but I don't want to be polite. Everything inside me is restless and irritable.
Xiao Mi quickly responded with enthusiasm. Although I had an intimate relationship with Xiao Mi once, this was still outside, which made me feel both excited and scared.
"Mm..." After Xiao Mi opened her eyes and glanced at me, she shyly closed them again.
But Xiaomi grabbed my hand, stopping my actions. I looked at him; Xiaomi showed a shy and innocent expression, looking at me as if wanting to say something but hesitating. I still wanted to do something, but Xiaomi leaned her face against mine, like a little lamb. Facing this little lamb, I couldn't help but feel more and more moved. The humiliation I felt before in front of Seventh Master and that group of big shots, where I felt like an ant, was instantly comforted
My fingers moved to Xiaomi's shirt buttons, secretly unbuttoning the first one, then immediately pulling the collar open. A domineering desire for control made me want to do whatever I wanted with Xiaomi. It seemed that only this could soothe my wounded pride. In the dim light, it was like a lighthouse guiding me.
"Mm... please don't..." Xiao Mi shyly pleaded in my ear.
I ignored Xiao Mi; I wanted what I wanted right now. But just as I was about to take it further, the driver suddenly turned around and shouted.
"Here we are! Is this the place?" the driver said.
"Yes," Xiao Mi said, glancing out the window.
I was very annoyed. After getting out of the car, I took out some money and handed it to the driver. Then I looked up at the area in front of me, which was an old residential complex. Xiao Mi led me inside. We went upstairs to a room. The building was very old, and there was a musty smell in the hallway. Xiao Mi opened the iron gate, and we walked in. The room was very messy, with clothes and cosmetics everywhere.
Xiao Mi didn't mind, and neither did I. Right now, all I wanted was to fulfill my inner desires. After entering the room, I immediately held her tightly, kissing her passionately on her luscious lips, making her utterly intoxicated.
Xiao Mi clutched my clothes tightly with both hands, her body burning hot and her breathing rapid. I believe at this moment she is just like me, her heart already ablaze with excitement. Coupled with the shy expression on her face, she might be suppressing her inner thrill, which is why her whole body is flushed and she keeps gasping for breath.
Looking at the buttons on her clothes, one by one being torn open, made me feel a bit dizzy and hot. Her expression had already made my face flush with heat!
"At this moment, I really admire you. I think at this moment, you truly resemble a man..." Xiao Mi said to me.
I pushed her onto the sofa, and she seductively reached out to me. I knew she was teasing me, and I would use the fiercest storm to tear her apart...
Time fell silent as I stared at the ceiling, Xiao Mi lying on my chest. We both seemed utterly exhausted. I had vented all my unease and anger onto Xiao Mi's body. She felt like a doll being bullied, and afterward, all my inner turmoil and rage vanished. It felt good...
Xiao Mi stood up, lit a cigarette, and took a deep drag. I watched her, not saying a word, just admiring her slender and exquisite body. I had never appreciated a woman so closely before; I found her extraordinarily beautiful.
She looked at me and said, "Are you relaxed?"
I nodded, feeling less tense inside. Xiao Mi walked around the room a couple of times, picked up the bra on the floor with her foot, and put it on. She said, "Relax, let's talk business. I heard about your meeting with Master Qi. You were scared, but let me tell you, don't be afraid. They're all human, and every human has weaknesses. The only reason they can act so arrogantly now is because they've worked hard to get where they are. Once you have
Xiao Mi's words are very true, but it's easier said than done. Xiao Mi said, "I heard you have a lot of research on gambling stones?"
I nodded and said, "My dad studied it his whole life; I just learned a bit from him..."
Xiao Mi took a deep drag on his cigarette, threw the butt on the ground, and said, "You won two million for Brother Guang, how much did you get?"
I gave a bitter smile and said, "One-tenth..."
"How pitiful, have you ever thought about going solo?" Xiao Mi said.
"He won't agree... and besides, I don't have enough stake money right now, I need to save up..." I said.
"You are absolutely right, but you can't trust him. One day, he will sell you out, just like his three brothers did," Xiao Mi said.
I looked at Xiao Mi and said, "Can I trust you?"
Xiao Mi looked at me and said, "You and I are the closest, we are honest with each other, can't you trust me?"
I looked at Xiao Mi, unsure of what to say. Sweet words from a woman are the hardest to resist. I asked, "Do you have any plans?"
Xiao Mi curled up on the sofa and said, "Money, what we need most right now is money. With money, we have power. With money, Lao Wu can finally make a name for himself..."
After I heard it, I felt really upset. I felt like she was using me to help her ex-boyfriend, and no man would be willing to do that.
"What does Lao Wu Chutou have to do with me?" I asked.
"These two men are the ones I hate the most, so I really want to see them destroy each other. I know that Lao Wu won't be suppressed by Qian Guang forever; he just hasn't had the chance. As long as he gets an opportunity, Lao Wu will definitely surpass Qian Guang. To rise to power, Lao Wu will definitely take down Qian Guang," Xiao Mi said.
I smiled and said, "What happened after that?"What benefits do I get from it?
Xiao Mi looked at me and said, "I'll help you take care of Lao Wu, and you can take everything from the two brothers."
Xiao Mi's words were extremely vicious. I really can't imagine how such a seemingly weak woman could have such a cruel heart, wanting to pit the brothers against each other and ultimately benefit from it. But I can't bring myself to trust her.
Xiao Mi looked at me and said, "Let me tell you now why I can't live without Qian Guang. Do you know what I'm smoking?"Drugs, addiction, I really liked Qian Guang. When I was dating Lao Wu at school, it was just to get close to Qian Guang. Finally, I had a chance to be alone with him. I was ready to give myself to him, but he ruthlessly slapped me and then injected me with something. From then on, I couldn't live without him, and he treated me like a dog. I hate him...
I squinted at Xiao Mi; the hatred in her eyes was more real than her words. This woman is terrifying...
Because everything she has suffered is self-inflicted, yet she has shifted the blame onto others.
