Guide To Reign My Tycoon Husbands - Chapter 212

Chapter 212: Black, white and gray (2)
Luo Huian looked at the rewards that she had been awarded with and clicked her tongue. With her hands in her pants’ pockets, she remarked, “That old hag is really annoying. I mean just look at the pathetic stats, I am lucky that I am living with humans and not immortals or else I would have died by now.”

“How many times do I have to tell you?” Xiao Bai said in a reproving voice. “Don’t call your grandmother an ‘old hag’, she is your elder and no matter what she cares for you.”

“A little too late for that isn’t it?” Luo Huian clicked her tongue as she walked over to the taxi stand while muttering under her breath, “And if she cares for me, ask her to give me a glass of water instead of a trickle of dew. It is really hard to deal with a bunch of things as my spiritual energy is limited.”

“I mean, I already have limited energy and yet some people keep testing my patience,” someone bumped into her as she walked past the throng of people.

Given that she was standing in the middle of a crowded street, there was nothing wrong with someone bumping into her and yet Luo Huian raised her hand and caught the person who bumped into her by her face.

“People like these,” she snarled as she pushed the woman on the hard concrete floor. However, she controlled her strength as she was smart enough to not burst open the skull of a human in a crowded region.

“Huian!”

“What are you doing!?”

The two snakes were startled by her actions and so were the people in the crowd. However, Luo Huian did not pay attention to their yelps and cries as she held her hand out infront of the woman,

“My purse,” she said to the pickpocketeer. “I don’t know about the rest but mine has a black card and I really don’t appreciate your attempts to take it from me.”

Her words were quiet the crowd still heard her and now they were shooting contemptuous looks at the thief.

“Really now, she looks young and yet she is doing such a thing.”

“It is the young ones whom we need to watch out for after all.”

“Tsk, Tsk…she looks like she is just fifteen or sixteen years old and yet —I have to say that the parents of these kids are not doing a good enough job to control them.”

“If she was my daughter, I would have whacked her until an inch of skin was ripped off. Nothing else other than a good beating does the trick.”

The girl was now shivering with fright, Luo Huian frowned at her actions and said to her, “Are you going to take out my purse or not? Don’t think that by acting pitiful in front of me, you can get away. I have little to no sympathy for people like you.”

“Please, my mother…”

“What does your mother have to do with me?” Luo Huian asked as she started patting the pockets of the thief. “If your mother needs money then you need to work hard. Hard work will always be rewarded.”

“Miss..”

“Here you go,” a new voice joined them and Luo Huian raised her head. She saw Wei Yucheng, the assistant of her mother standing behind her, he was holding what seemed like a stack of yuan in his hands while smiling politely at the young girl, “If you don’t mind you can take this money and in return hand Miss Luo her purse? She is right that the card inside of her purse is more trouble than help.”

“You will be locked up if you do not return the card to Miss Huian.”

The young woman squeaked but she hurriedly took out the purse from her pockets and handed it to Luo Huian.

“Now if you can let her go, Miss Luo,” said Wei Yucheng and Luo Huian raised her brows. She snatched her purse from the other hand which was free and said to Wei Yucheng, “You seem to be oddly kind to this young lady. She is a thief and who knows how many people she has stolen from and yet you want me to let go of her?”

“She should be handed to the police,”

Her sentiments were echoed by the rest of the people in the crowd who agreed with Luo Huian.

“Do you really think so?” Wei Yucheng asked with a light-hearted voice. “She is clearly young and one can see that she is not in a good situation. Most probably she has something or someone who is forcing her to do such a thing, does she need to be sent to prison for being bullied now?”

As he spoke, he pointed to the many injuries on the body of the young lady who was shivering under Luo Huian’s hold.

“Please—please… let me go, I promise… I promise I will not do it again,” begged the young lady and even though Luo Huian was less than inclined to do such a thing, there was a roar and —

BANG!

She felt something knock her backwards and Luo Huian was sent flying back.

“Ouch!” She winced while rubbing her back as she scrambled to her feet but no matter how fast Luo Huian was, she was simply not as fast as the partner the thief.

The two of them were now running away on a scooter, which was already five blocks away from where she stood.

Luo Huian wanted to chase after them but her arm was caught by Wei Yucheng.

“Let them go,” he said to her in a stern voice. “You need to understand that every single person who commits a crime is not necessarily bad— some of them are forced into it.”

“There is no need to announce every single one of them as a criminal and chuck them in prison.”

Luo Huian wrenched her arm from the mer and said, “Speak for yourself.”
