49: He looks like a dog!

"Yuxuan... You..."

Enduring the waves of pain from his body, Xiao Chen raised his eyes in astonishment, looking at Shen Yuxuan before him with disbelief. His voice was desolate, his gaze gray, and his facial muscles twitched uncontrollably.

Sorrow is greatest when the heart dies.

Looking at Shen Yuxuan's icy cold gaze, Xiao Chen only felt a pain so intense he could barely breathe, as if he had been abandoned by the entire world.

Xiao Chen never expected that Shen Yuxuan, his childhood sweetheart from years ago, would actually take action against him directly, and all because of that damn bastard Jiang Che. This dealt another ten thousand points of critical damage to his already riddled heart.

If his conjecture was correct, Shen Yuxuan and Jiang Che had probably only known each other for a few short days.

A few short days were enough to make Shen Yuxuan do this for him?

What kind of love potion had that bastard Jiang Che fed his white moonlight?

Why!

Clearly, all of this should have belonged to him, damn it!

He was the man who had accompanied Shen Yuxuan through her entire youth!

Could it be that a childhood sweetheart truly never defeats a sudden arrival?

Just as he had always liked Shen Yuxuan in his heart, Xiao Chen took it for granted that Shen Yuxuan had also been secretly harboring feelings for him all along.

During these years as a mercenary in Africa, it wasn't that Xiao Chen hadn't thought about reconnecting with Shen Yuxuan, but he was afraid that Shen Yuxuan would be targeted by people from his hostile factions and get implicated, which was why he had delayed taking action.

Although he hadn't reconnected with Shen Yuxuan, Xiao Chen had always been trying to keep an eye on her life, so naturally, he knew she had never dated any boyfriends in these past six years.

Therefore, Xiao Chen fell into one of life's three great illusions: that Shen Yuxuan had been waiting for him all these years.

So... how on earth did that bastard Jiang Che manage to make Shen Yuxuan care for him so deeply and fall so hard for him in such a short time?

Could it be...

Is this guy, like that legendary Lao Ai, a master of the bedroom?

Pain!

Too painful!

Thinking of some unspeakable scene, Xiao Chen's face turned bright red in an instant, and with a "Wah" sound, he spat out a large mouthful of bright red blood.

His already pale complexion became even paler, like snow, and his breath was weak, as if he were not long for this world.

The physical pain was far less than the emotional trauma Jiang Che had inflicted upon him.

Xiao Chen's eyes were bloodshot, his gaze cold and icy, staring fixedly at the hypocritical Jiang Che before him.

If looks could kill, Jiang Che would have been killed by him more than ten thousand times!

[Xiao Chen wishes he could chop you into pieces and feed you to the dogs, emotion points +33333...]

Jiang Che: ...

Jiang Che naturally felt Xiao Chen's incomparably hateful gaze.

At this moment, Jiang Che was speechless.

Damn, he hadn't even said a word since he arrived, and Xiao Chen already wanted to chop him into pieces and feed him to the dogs?

Did this guy... imagine some other unspeakable scene again?

Pfft!

What a dirty-minded guy!

"Jiang Che! You..."

Xiao Chen gritted his teeth, blood spilling from the corners of his mouth. His voice was cold as a winter spring, acting like a madman, like a vicious dog from Hell.

Xiao Chen had just gathered enough emotion, but before he could finish speaking, he was immediately interrupted by Shen Yuxuan again.

"Xiao Chen, you are not allowed to speak to Senior!"

"A piece of trash like you is not worthy of speaking to Senior!"

Shen Yuxuan's expression was extremely cold, and her emotionless words shattered Xiao Chen's defenses once again.

"I..."

Xiao Chen was speechless for a moment, completely at a loss for what to say. He struggled to reach out and clutch his aching chest, his lips turning purple and trembling uncontrollably.

"Get lost immediately, get out of my sight!"

"Otherwise, I will call the police!"

Seeing Xiao Chen's miserable state, the kind-hearted Shen Yuxuan uncharacteristically felt no pity and spoke coldly.

As she spoke, Shen Yuxuan took out her phone, making a gesture as if she were about to call the police.

In Shen Yuxuan's view, the reason Xiao Chen had fallen into such a miserable state was entirely his own fault and did not deserve a shred of her pity.

Before deciding to become a mercenary leader and committing repeated atrocities, Xiao Chen should have anticipated that this day would come.

"Fine..."

Xiao Chen's face was ashen, and he closed his eyes in despair, not bothering to defend himself further.

He knew clearly in his heart that any explanation at this time would be futile, and Shen Yuxuan would never believe him.

Forcing himself to take a breath, he struggled to get up from the ground, trembling. With a desolate back, he walked away with a stumbling gait.

The setting sun was like blood.

Under the sunset, Xiao Chen's back looked exceptionally lonely.

"Yuxuan, look at him, he looks like a dog..."

Jiang Che reached out and took Shen Yuxuan's slender hand quite naturally, his smile mocking and his tone teasing.

Fearing that Xiao Chen in the distance wouldn't hear, Jiang Che deliberately raised his voice.

Jiang Che did not stop Shen Yuxuan from letting Xiao Chen leave.

Tonight was Xiao Chen's doomsday; what did it matter if he lived a few more hours?

Besides, they were still in public, and there were quite a few workers who had just finished their shifts inside the orphanage.

Killing Xiao Chen in front of everyone would have a bad impact.

Xiao Chen's Dantian had been destroyed; he was now a useless person with no cultivation and could no longer stir up any trouble.

Sending any Shadow Guard to finish him off would be easy.

"Mm-hmm, Senior is right~"

"This guy is a beast not even worth as much as a pig or dog!"

Shen Yuxuan hurriedly agreed, echoing his words with a sweet smile, her voice becoming soft and sweet again.

Raising her eyes slightly to gaze at the man before her, Shen Yuxuan's eyes were filled with deep, melting tenderness and affection.

Not far away, the just-departed Xiao Chen heard their conversation and could no longer endure the grief and indignation in his heart. A mouthful of blood surged from his mouth, and he fell straight to the ground, fainting.

Seeing this, Jiang Che smiled inwardly and had no intention of staying longer, saying directly.

"It's getting late, let's go home."

Having completely broken Xiao Chen's defenses and farmed over fifty thousand emotion points from this soldier king, Jiang Che no longer had any desire to tangle with him and turned to leave with Shen Yuxuan.

If Xiao Chen were to be angered to death like this, it would naturally be for the best.

Having sustained such serious injuries, even if he were lucky enough to survive, he was destined not to live past early morning.

"Mm-hmm, I'll listen to everything Senior says~"

Shen Yuxuan nodded obediently, her face like a peach blossom, looking shy. She subconsciously held Jiang Che's large hand tightly, not even glancing at Xiao Chen as she left the Sunshine Orphanage with Jiang Che.

...

"Pfft!"

"You brat, weren't you quite arrogant!"

"Go ahead and be arrogant for me to see now?"

After Jiang Che's motorcade had left in a grand manner, the construction foreman from before walked up to Xiao Chen, spat on him, and kicked him hard a few times.

"Nobody is allowed to help this guy, and nobody is allowed to call for an ambulance."

"Let him fend for himself!"
