Chapter 987: Touching My Woman, You're Asking for Death

~7 min read 1,274 words

A massive sound stunned everyone in an instant.

Almost everyone's gaze was fixed tightly on the disheveled Gu Han, who was being pressed against the table, and then on the murderous Li Xiao, their eyes filled with terror.

Even the Security Guard and staff who had rushed over at the sound dared not act rashly.

"I told you, don't show yourself again."

Li Xiao's face was gloomy as the hand gripping Gu Han's head tightened bit by bit.

"Ah..."

Gu Han let out a painful low roar, his hands flailing and grabbing at the air.

Just at this moment—"Li Xiao..."

Cai Xiaotang's weak voice suddenly rang out. Although it was faint, Li Xiao heard it immediately; he released his hand directly and turned to check on Cai Xiaotang's condition.

Only then did he see that she had somehow forced herself to stand up, but her figure was unsteady; before she could even finish a sentence, she fell straight toward him!

"Xiao Tang!!!"

Li Xiao was startled and immediately reached out to catch her, his expression suddenly turning stern.

The lighting here was far too dim, and he hadn't noticed the abnormality of the person before him; only when he touched her skin did he realize in shock that her whole body was burning hot!

Her face was also flushed with an unnatural redness!

"What's wrong with you?"

Li Xiao's heart skipped a beat. Although a vague answer had already flashed through his mind, he still asked subconsciously, his gaze sweeping over the others like a blade.

Cai Xiaotang was panting heavily, trying her best to maintain steady breathing, but the heat constantly rising throughout her body had already burned away most of her reason.

She blinked, leaning weakly against Li Xiao's chest, and swept her eyes around before slightly raising her hand to point at the man who had forcibly dragged her in earlier and fed her who-knows-what.

"He... gave me... something strange to drink..."

Cai Xiaotang spoke in a small voice. The hot air she exhaled while speaking scorched Li Xiao's skin, as if veiling it in a layer of scorching mist.

It went without saying what "something strange" referred to.

"Killing intent" erupted in Li Xiao's eyes almost instantly, and his aura became even sharper.

The next second—"Damn it..."

A man's disgruntled curse, accompanied by the sound of rushing wind, suddenly rang out behind Li Xiao's ears!

Gu Han had stood up straight at some point and was actually wielding a wine bottle, smashing it toward Li Xiao's direction; it was about to strike the back of his head!

Just at this moment—Li Xiao suddenly turned around violently, one arm wrapped around Cai Xiaotang's waist to keep her against his chest, and with a slight tilt of his body, he easily dodged Gu Han's attack!

Then, he took advantage of the momentum to grab the hand holding the wine bottle and twisted it violently in the opposite direction!!!

"Crack!"

The crisp sound of joints snapping instantly spread throughout the room!

Simultaneously, Gu Han's wail rang out.

"Ah!!!!!"

He clutched his completely incapacitated right arm in a disheveled state and collapsed onto the floor, his face turning deathly pale in an instant, his forehead covered in cold sweat.

"You!"

The people nearby hadn't expected Li Xiao to dare to strike so ruthlessly; they were shocked and afraid, threatening in low voices: "Do you know who Young Master Gu is? I think you don't want to live anymore!!!"

The other party clamored loudly, yet no one dared to step forward half a pace to help.

"Identity?"

Li Xiao let out a cold snort.

After saying this, he picked up Cai Xiaotang horizontally and walked toward the door without looking aside.

Seeing this, the others immediately retreated a few steps.

Li Xiao did not leave the room, however, but slowly stood still in front of the man Cai Xiaotang had identified earlier.

That man was already pale with fright; as he backed away, he threatened: "I'm telling you, my... my family... my family is... ah!!!!"

Before he could finish his sentence, he suddenly knelt on one knee directly on the ground!

Then he was sent flying, crashing heavily onto a table before rolling onto the floor!

No one saw how Li Xiao had made his move.

They only knew that by the time they regained their senses, the man was already lying on the ground, clutching his leg and howling in agony, clearly suffering the same fate as Gu Han's arm.

"Li Xiao..."

Cai Xiaotang had a headache from the noisy sounds in her ears, and her body was burning hot; she instinctively pressed hard against Li Xiao's chest and pleaded in a small voice: "Let's go... let's go..."

"Okay."

Hearing her voice, the rage in Li Xiao's eyes was instantly replaced by heartache.

Giving a final, warning glance to everyone in the room, he strode away holding Cai Xiaotang without looking back, and no one dared to stop him.

"Li Xiao..."

Cai Xiaotang was still whispering Li Xiao's name.

"I'm here."

Li Xiao responded in a low voice, carrying her out of the bar at top speed, his expression pained and furious.

That bunch of degenerates who only knew how to wallow in luxury and dissipation!

Drinking was one thing, but they actually had this kind of low-class drug on them!!!

What they fed Xiao Tang must be...

Li Xiao closed his eyes. A faint, sweet scent that he had been able to smell radiating from her since just now kept drifting to the tip of his nose, and he looked troubled.

"Xiao Tang?"

Li Xiao called her name while walking forward with Cai Xiaotang in his arms.

Perhaps because of the cool breeze outside, Cai Xiaotang felt much more comfortable after coming out of the bar.

Although her body still felt as hot as if it were about to be ignited, she still tried hard to lift her eyes to look at the person holding her.

She had no idea at all just how alluring she looked right now.

Li Xiao was caught off guard as he met those eyes filled with mist, and his heart suddenly skipped a beat.

Stunned for a moment, he then asked in a deep voice, "Did you see what they fed you just now? Was it a kind of pink potion?"

"Yes..."

Cai Xiaotang had a vivid memory of that pink liquid and gave a soft response.

No sooner had she finished speaking than she felt a strange wave of restless heat sweep over her again, even more intense than before!

"Mm..."

She couldn't help but let out a soft moan, her fingertips instinctively clutching Li Xiao's lapels.

Her gaze also uncontrollably fell upon his Adam's apple, which was right before her eyes, rising and falling with his breathing.

Cai Xiaotang's eyes suddenly became somewhat unfocused, and she couldn't help but lick her lips.

She already knew...

what kind of medicine she had drunk.

And she also recognized that the person holding her right now was Li Xiao.

The little bit of reason she had left seemed to show signs of being unable to hold on any longer, being ignited bit by bit by the flames all over her body, burning into a raging fire.

As if bewitched, Cai Xiaotang's fingertips suddenly began to move slowly upward.

Until they passed Li Xiao's neck, circled back to the center, and then pressed down lightly.

The next second—Li Xiao's footsteps came to a sudden halt, and a storm instantly surged in the depths of his eyes.

But—"Li Xiao..."

Cai Xiaotang called his name and leaned in a little closer.
