Chapter 275 The Beauty and the Boss's Love and Career (28 words)
She paused deliberately, glancing at Ruan Ruan, a barely perceptible hint of contempt creeping onto her lips.
"Brother, take another look at this child, his name is Ruan An."
Don't let his seemingly simple-minded appearance fool you; he's incredibly handsome, with snow-white skin and large, bright eyes.
Take it out, and everyone will compliment how beautiful it is.
As the woman spoke, she grabbed his soft arm and shoved him toward the nouveau riche.
“We’re just a burden to have him with us. He keeps asking to see his brother every day. It’s so annoying.”
Brother, if you don't mind, please take him with you.
Although he's a bit slow-witted, he can still keep you company and make you laugh.
She finished speaking in one breath, her eyes fixed on the nouveau riche, observing the changes in his expression.
Ruan Ruan sat on the ground, and upon hearing the woman's words, she raised her head blankly, her eyes filled with fear and confusion.
He opened his mouth, wanting to say something, but because he was too nervous and scared, he stammered even more:
"No...no...don't, you...you...why...why...want...to...send...me away."
"Ruan...Ruanruan doesn't...don't...leave, Ruan...Ruanruan wants...want her brother..."
His voice was choked with sobs, sounding especially helpless in this hostile environment.
The nouveau riche smiled knowingly at the woman's words.
He looked Ruan Ruan up and down, his eyes filled with scrutiny and covetousness, as if he were assessing the value of an item.
"Just him?"
He sneered, "Looks all skinny, might not be able to handle it!"
His voice was full of disdain, but his eyes revealed a hint of impatience, as if he was calculating whether the deal was worthwhile.
The woman quickly smiled ingratiatingly, her face crinkling with flattery, and said eagerly:
"Don't worry, brother. Ruan An may look frail, but she's actually quite strong."
This child may look a bit slow-witted, but he's incredibly obedient. If you tell him to go east, he'll never dare go west. He'll definitely make you happy.
As she spoke, she forcefully pulled Ruan Ruan up from the ground and pushed her in front of the nouveau riche, completely ignoring Ruan Ruan's terrified struggles.
"Alright, seeing how sincere you are, it's settled then."
The nouveau riche stopped, reached out and pinched the soft chin, lifting his face to examine it closely, a malicious smile curling at the corner of his mouth.
"However, this only covers part of the gambling debts; you'll still have to find a way to pay the rest."
The woman nodded hurriedly and replied repeatedly:
"Of course, of course. We will definitely find a way to resolve the rest. We will absolutely not renege on our debt."
The gamblers around him wore numb and indifferent expressions.
Some of them crossed their arms, while others smoked cigarettes, simply watching everything in silence.
In this dog-eat-dog underground city, conscience has long been devoured by profit and desire.
They didn't want to get involved, and at that moment they were all secretly calculating the pros and cons behind this transaction, just waiting to see the final result, as if this was just a farce that had nothing to do with them.
Ruan An's fate was nothing more than a trivial interlude in their eyes.
Ruan Ruan's chin was being pinched by the nouveau riche, her eyes welling up with tears from the pain, yet she still stubbornly muttered:
"No...no, Ruan...Ruanruan doesn't want to go with you, Ruan...Ruanruan wants to find her brother..."
Her voice was choked with sobs, sounding especially weak in the cold environment.
In the midst of this suffocating scene, Ran Cang exploded in Yun Sui's earphones, her voice sharp and urgent, like a series of firecrackers exploding in his ears:
"What kind of mess is this!"
How can there be such vicious people in this world?
That damned, outdated family is nothing but a bunch of animals!
She spoke very quickly, her words filled with anger and resentment.
"Just for that little bit of gambling debt, they're going to push this poor kid into a fire pit. Don't they have any humanity?!"
Ran Cang became more and more excited as he spoke, his voice trembling slightly.
When Ran Cang saw the boy about to be handed over to that lewd-looking nouveau riche, she lost control of her emotions.
The anger and sympathy that could not be fully expressed in words poured out of her mouth all at once:
“XXXXXXXXXX”
"No, absolutely not! How dare they!"
How is this any different from selling a child?
"Look how terrified this child is! Have they lost all their conscience?"
Her voice was filled with anger, but also with heartache for the boy.
"Yun Sui, please save him! He's so pitiful!"
Ran Cang cried out almost pleadingly, "You can't just watch him get bullied by these bad guys, we have to save him!"
Every word she uttered was like a heavy hammer blow, striking Yun Sui's eardrums.
Yun Sui had a headache from the barrage of high-decibel sounds.
He took a deep breath in exasperation, raised his hand to rub his other ear, and muttered to himself with a wry smile:
"If this continues, I feel like I'll eventually go deaf from the volume."
My ears can't take it anymore.
At the same time, Changsheng and Lique's equally helpless yet somewhat sarcastic sighs could be clearly heard through the headphones.
Changsheng rubbed his ears and sighed, saying helplessly:
"Yes, my ears have been ringing since just now, they're almost numb from the vibration."
Ran Cang's explosive power is something most people can't withstand.
Li Que also chimed in:
"you do not say!
My eardrums feel like they're about to burst from her voice; if she keeps shouting like that, my ears are definitely going to be ruined.
After a long while, as Ran Cang's stormy emotions subsided somewhat, Chang Sheng seized the opportunity and quickly said:
"It's finally my turn to speak."
Chang Sheng rubbed his still-ringing ears, his expression calm and composed. His gaze fixed on the chaotic yet heart-wrenching scene before him, he slowly spoke:
“Yun Sui, look, things in this world are sometimes so wonderful.”
We came here to track down Bao Zhi, and unexpectedly stumbled upon this child being bullied and facing a tragic fate.
Perhaps saving him was fate, or perhaps it was our mission.
As Yun Sui listened to Chang Sheng's words, his eyes were fixed on the "nouveau riche" who was still bargaining with the old family woman.
Looking at the other party's feigned arrogance, the cunning glint in his eyes, and his undisguised greed when faced with profit, Yun Sui's mind instantly flashed back to all the clues and information he had previously collected about Bao Zhi.
Those scattered fragments were rapidly pieced together and reassembled in his mind.
His eyes suddenly lit up, and he said in a resolute tone:
"This 'nouveau riche' is Bao Zhi?!"
Chang Sheng nodded slightly, a hint of pride flashing in his eyes, and replied affirmatively:
Yes, that's him!
He hid in this complex underground city, thinking he could rest easy, but he never expected that he couldn't escape our eyes.
Ran Cang listened to the conversation between the two, and his face, which was originally flushed with anger, now had a cold look on it.
She snorted coldly, her laughter carrying a chilling coldness that seemed to freeze the surrounding air.
"Hmph, it seems that fate is against him; he's walking right into our trap."
This guy has done all sorts of bad things, his hands are stained with evil, and today he actually tried to harm such a simple and innocent boy. He's absolutely depraved!
Now that we've run into him, he's not going to escape today!
This is his retribution; no one can save him!
Ran Cang's voice was filled with the pleasure of revenge.
She had long hated Bao Zhi's evil deeds to the core, and now the moment had finally come when he would pay the price.
Yun Sui took a deep breath to calm her excitement.
His gaze shifted from Ruan An's terrified and helpless face to the indifferent and apathetic gamblers around him, and a strong sense of mission welled up within him.
