Chapter 69: Not Someone You Can Afford to Mess With (2)
If she were the previous Zhao Youlin, the moment she saw Zhao Youxi lunging at her so fiercely, she would have been dumbfounded. She would have simply stood there and let Zhao Youxi strike her without fighting back.
Unfortunately, the current Zhao Youlin was no longer her old self whom Zhao Youxi could slaughter whenever she desired. Instead, the current Zhao Youlin was an icy-cool predator who was always well-prepared to kill her prey.
When Zhao Youxi swung her hand at Zhao Youlin, Zhao Youlin quirked on her eyebrow. She took a step back and dodged Zhao Youxi’s incoming arm. Zhao Youlin bent her left fingers and grabbed Zhao Youxi’s wrist swiftly, accurately, and without hesitation. Then, she wrung her wrist hard backward. At the same time, Zhao Youlin effortlessly grabbed a shiny thing from Zhao Youxi’s hair with her left hand.
Zhao Youxi had never expected that Zhao Youlin had the guts to fight back, and she even ended up being caught squarely. She inevitably let out a cry of pain the moment her arm was twisted, “Darn it! Y-You…”
Before she had finished cussing, she was immediately interrupted by the cold object against her neck.
Zhao Youxi widened her eyes and looked down incredulously. Her heart grew cold the moment she saw the object that was glowing with a bone-chilling light beside her.
It was a diamond-encrusted hairpin that she had put on her hair. Initially, it had served as an ornament to embellish her hair. However, it had easily turned into a sharp weapon that could threaten lives.
“Y-You… You’re not that wench!” Zhao Youxi froze for some time before she recovered and shrieked as her body trembled.
Zhao Youlin’s eyebrow did not even twitch when she heard Zhao Youxi’s words. She said playfully, “Oh, really? Then, who do you think I am?”
Zhao Youxi was at a loss for words. As she stared at Zhao Youlin’s face, which was nothing like the one she remembered, an inexplicable horror crept over her. Her body trembled even more.
“You’re not Zhao Youlin… You definitely are not… Zhao Youlin can’t possibly… Impossible…”
“Impossible what?” Zhao Youlin interrupted Zhao Youxi’s words leisurely. Her eyes were filled with excitement and mockery that gave one the creeps. “Impossible for me to react aggressively in the face of your abuse or defend myself when you’re about to strike, huh?! Who do you think you are?! Do you think everyone in this world has to succumb to your humiliation, beating and cussing?! Zhao Youxi, you’re right. I’m not Zhao Youlin or whatsoever.”
Right after Zhao Youlin spoke, Zhao Youxi stared at her and her gaze was inevitably filled with fear.
Meanwhile, Zhao Youlin was unaware of this. She looked into her eyes and enunciated each and every word, “The previous Zhao Youlin is dead. She was dead the moment she stepped out of the Zhao family and the Mu family. Now, I’m no longer the previous eldest lady of the Zhao family whom you all can simply toy with. If you all ever dare to lay a finger on me and my son, I’ll pay you back tenfold!”
“Y-You… I-I…” Zhao Youxi’s lips were trembling slightly. She was too frightened to speak as she was intimidated by the strong murderous intent exuded from Zhao Youlin. She instinctively knew that this woman was not joking about.
Amidst desperation, Zhao Youxi shifted her gaze and looked at a distance not far away from her. When she saw the bodyguards who came along just stood there like bumps on a log, her face darkened. She growled at them, “Are you all dead?! Can’t you see she’s threatening to kill me?! Come over now and save me!”
When the bodyguards in black suits were snapped out of a daze, they hurriedly went over to them.
Ye Yan was standing with Joy some distance away. When he saw this, his expression instantly changed. He hesitated, thinking if he should stand up to lend his help. Just then, a loud shout was heard, “I dare you to come near me!”
