55: Why be afraid?

Su Mianmian was almost exasperated; did he really think she was an object?

Just as she was about to teach this man a lesson, she heard him let out an even more painful groan.

Su Mianmian glanced over and saw his hands unconsciously clutching his throat, his face pale.

Even though he was on the verge of death, his hands were still tightly gripping his throat, as if he wanted to kill himself.

Su Mianmian looked at Shi Xu; there was no doubt it was his doing.

Only his mental ability could control people like this.

"What... what is he doing?"

"Is he possessed?"

The people behind the man saw him like this and all took a few steps back.

A few bolder ones tried to step forward but were pulled back by someone, "What are you going to do, do you want to die with him?"

Even the boldest didn't want to die, so they stopped and didn't move forward.

Su Mianmian looked into the man's eyes; there was confusion, anger, and a plea for help, but no regret.

She smiled; such a man deserved to die.

Just by looking at the man's glabella, she could tell how many bad things he had done in the past.

A man like that probably wouldn't even reincarnate after death.

Su Mianmian watched as the man gradually stopped breathing, feeling nothing in her heart.

"He... he's dead?"

"You... you killed him?"

The man's companions were the first to react, pointing at Shi Xu and the others with terrified expressions.

When the others realized he wasn't possessed but was controlled by Shi Xu and his group, they all became scared.

Someone who could control people was terrifying no matter how you looked at it.

Except for the dead man's companions, everyone else had an urge to run away.

"If you dare to cause trouble here again, next time, it will be you who dies."

"Believe it or not, it's up to you."

Su Mianmian looked at the people in front of her with a sarcastic expression, her tone utterly calm.

The calmest voice spoke the most threatening words.

Shi Xu glanced at Su Mianmian, and the anger he had felt earlier dissipated considerably.

When he heard that man wanting to give Su Mianmian to his boss, the anger in his heart was truly uncontrollable.

That was also why he killed him directly.

No one knew how much he cherished Su Mianmian.

Whoever dared to say such things to her would die.

A dangerous smile flickered in Shi Xu's eyes.

"You... you little girl, how dare you speak like that!"

"We just wanted to tell you some information."

"How can you be so vicious!"

A middle-aged man's face flushed red when he heard Su Mianmian say that.

To think he used to be a politician, and now he was losing so much face.

He felt a burning pain on his face.

"We don't need any information from you."

"Just don't bother us."

"If you come again, his fate will be yours."

Su Mianmian said to them with an arrogant look.

The confidence in her eyes made the middle-aged man afraid to speak again.

"I... I will avenge my brother."

"You all die for me, especially you, you stinking girl!"

A man suddenly rushed out, a knife in his hand, running towards Su Mianmian.

Su Mianmian's lips curved into a cold smile; a vine wrapped around the knife in his hand and pulled it down.

Stripped of his weapon, the man's eyes were filled with disbelief.

He wanted to retreat, but he couldn't move at all.

Su Mianmian glanced at Shi Xu, knowing he had helped her.

She walked with a smile to the man who wanted to kill her, looked him up and down, and said with disgust, "Not only is your mouth foul, but you're also smelly."

After Su Mianmian finished speaking, she quickly retreated a few steps.

Shi Xu and the others couldn't help but laugh.

Su Mianmian's mouth was truly amusing.

"You..."

"You're the one who's smelly!"

"Let me go!"

"If you kill me, our boss won't let you off!"

A hint of fear flashed in the man's eyes.

He still remembered how the previous man had died.

"Then go back and tell your boss that we're always here, come find us anytime."

"We're ready for anything."

Su Mianmian said indifferently.

After she finished speaking, the man regained control of his body.

He turned to walk back, then suddenly, with a "bang," his body exploded, and flesh and blood splattered onto the people around him, making them scream in terror.

The screams of terror echoed, reaching who knows where.

"Boss, you..."

"Forget it, we'll clean up properly later."

Xu Qing was about to say something, but he caught Shi Xu's displeased expression and immediately shut up.

Provoking Shi Xu when he was unhappy was clearly not a wise choice.

"Aren't you leaving?"

"Are you planning to stay here with these two?"

Su Mianmian looked at the others with a devilish smile; the blood on them was truly disgusting.

Upon hearing her words, everyone frantically ran downstairs.

In their hearts, this place was like hell.

How did these people kill invisibly?

They vowed never to come again.

"Are we just letting them go?"

"Won't they come back?"

Xu Qing stroked his chin, his face full of curiosity.

"They're just small fries."

"We don't need to get so much blood on our hands for petty troublemakers."

"The real one to watch out for is the boss they mentioned."

Su Mianmian only saw problems with these two men's glabella; although others also had issues, they were minor.

She couldn't be bothered to deal with them.

Xu Qing nodded at her words.

"If we killed so many people at once, we'd definitely become public enemies of this building."

"Although we're not afraid, it's too much trouble."

"At a time like this, don't stir up so much trouble."

"Killing these two to get it out of our system can also deter others."

Su Jinxuan understood Su Mianmian's meaning and explained.

The others understood some more principles after hearing him.

Su Mianmian looked at Su Jinxuan with affirmation; he really understood her thoughts.

If they killed everyone at once, their peaceful days would surely come to an end.

Unless they killed everyone in the building.

That was impossible.

Humans were already few, and not everyone was bad; if they killed like that, what was the difference between them and those villains?

Su Mianmian was not one to kill innocent people; the people she wanted to kill were absolutely heinous.

"Let's go back first; tonight, the 'boss' they spoke of will definitely make a move."

"Just roughly clean this up for now; we'll have to deal with it again tonight anyway."

Shi Xu had been silent until now, finally speaking.

Su Mianmian looked at him with a scrutinizing gaze, thinking that his silence must have been due to him using his mental power to scout out the so-called "boss."

It seemed he already understood their plan.

Xu Qing and Xu Huan nodded, and the two began to clean up.

Su Mianmian stopped Shi Xu, who was about to return to his room, "Shi Xu, did you scout out that boss?"

Her tone was full of certainty, and Shi Xu didn't hide it, nodding.

Su Mianmian asked about their plan, and Shi Xu smiled, casually saying, "It's nothing but some petty tricks."

Su Mianmian was confused; why was his answer so irrelevant?

Shi Xu patted Su Mianmian's head and smiled, "They want to bomb our house with explosives, are you scared?"

Su Mianmian heard him and asked back with curiosity, "Why should I be scared?"

If Shi Xu wasn't scared, why should she be?

Since Shi Xu said it so casually, she was sure he already had a solution.

Shi Xu looked at Su Mianmian's confident expression, and he finally couldn't help but laugh.

His pleasant laughter reached Su Mianmian's ears, and she couldn't help but blush.

"Shi Xu, what are you laughing at?"

"Stop laughing."

Su Mianmian hit Shi Xu's arm, her face flushed with annoyance.

Shi Xu stopped laughing, grabbed Su Mianmian's hand, and said mysteriously, "Tonight, I'll show you a good show."
