The Indifferent Young Master’s Flash Marriage - Chapter 904
Chapter 904: Innocent Bystanders
Executive Officer Lin’s face was covered in cold sweat, and even his palms were covered in sweat.
However, compared to his fear, Jiang Xuecheng was much calmer and began the final countdown.
“Ten, nine, eight…”
Before Jiang Xuecheng could count the final few seconds, Executive Officer Lin gritted his teeth and finally nodded at Jiang Xuecheng in agreement.
“Okay, stop counting. I’ll wait for you at the school gate later.”
Jiang Xuecheng’s expression was as cold as ice. The dagger on Executive Officer Lin’s neck flashed with a cold light, but he had no intention of moving it away.
“Don’t think of acting rashly or stalling for time. Otherwise, I’ll let you die without a burial place, understand?”
As he spoke, the tip of Jiang Xuecheng’s dagger went a little deeper into Executive Officer Lin’s neck, but only a trace of fresh blood oozed out. The color of the blood was barely noticeable.
Executive Officer Lin was obviously scared out of his wits. He kept nodding at Jiang Xuecheng like a chicken pecking at rice.
“Okay, okay, okay. My life is in your hands now. How could I dare to act rashly?!”
As he spoke, Executive Officer Lin was clearly on the verge of crying. Even his legs were starting to show wet marks.
Did he wet his pants?!
He was a man after all, but he was actually so timid and afraid of things?
Jiang Xuecheng looked at Executive Officer Lin with disdain. He felt that it was laughable that he had been schemed against by such a person.
However, he had been careless because he had thought that Executive Officer Lin was not strong-spirited and could not be of much use.
Now, he had learned from his mistakes. However, an enemy that looked like he could not withstand a single blow was enough to hinder one’s footsteps in certain matters, and even to murder for wealth!
Jiang Xuecheng’s gaze was locked tightly on the other party, and the warning in his eyes was self-evident.
Although his modified face appeared rather mediocre, his pair of dark jade-colored eyes were still unfathomable, making one feel intimidated by them.
“Go out now and head straight to the school gate. Remember to say that you randomly found someone to investigate the situation and then chose me. You have to put on a good show, understand?”
“I… I will definitely remember! Don’t worry…”
Executive Officer Lin nodded fearfully. He couldn’t even speak properly and even stuttered.
He was afraid that Jiang Xuecheng’s knife would really stab into him and cut his throat!
Of course, Jiang Xuecheng knew what this guy was afraid of. He snorted coldly and then casually put away his knife.
Just when Executive Officer Lin thought he was liberated, he was suddenly pulled over by Jiang Xuecheng. He suddenly walked to the sink and splashed a lot of water on his neck.
Executive Officer Lin’s life was now under Jiang Xuecheng’s control. He had been infected with a virus of unknown origin. He dared not speak out in anger.
Because there was an extremely fine wound on his neck, and the cold tap water splashed over it, Executive Officer Lin only felt a faint pain on his neck.
He had a bitter expression on his face, not daring to say a single word. When he saw his reflection in the mirror, he was filled with fear. However, the faint trace of blood on his neck had already disappeared.
It had to be said that Jiang Xuecheng’s swordsmanship was extremely good. Although it could make him feel pain and see blood, now that it was done like this, it was not easy to even find the wound.
“Your Highness, may I leave now?”
Jiang Xuecheng’s almost barbaric methods were too much for him. If this went on without the virus acting up, Executive Officer Lin felt that he was going to have a heart attack!
Jiang Xuecheng slowly looked away from him and finally nodded indifferently.
Executive Officer Lin seemed to have been granted amnesty and was trying to leave slowly. However, before he reached the door, he suddenly realized that he had to look like an executive no matter what.
He was about to tidy up his clothes with a bitter face, but when he looked back, he realized that the figure of Jiang Xuecheng had already disappeared.
He had really come and gone without a trace!
Executive Officer Lin felt an inexplicable chill run down his spine. With his skills, even if he wanted to sneak into his usual office and rest place, it should be easy, right?
Why had he been so foolish at that time, wanting to conspire with Fiennes to murder the emperor? Was he such a pushover?
Now, there were only two things that he could not do well. At that time, he still felt that Fiennes was too suspicious and insisted on making him go to the bottom of the sea to retrieve the bodies. Now that they couldn’t find the bodies, he realized that the two of them were really not dead…
He could not help but shudder. He recalled the warning from Jiang Xuecheng and told him to leave as soon as possible. Otherwise…
Executive Officer Lin reluctantly tidied up his clothes and then went out.
The two burly men who were responsible for guarding the door outside were wondering why Executive Officer Lin had been in the bathroom for so long. They were still hesitating whether they should go in to take a look when Executive Officer Lin happened to come out.
However, he looked a little… uh… seeing that he was covered in water, the two bodyguards felt even more puzzled.
One of the square-faced bodyguards could not help but ask another question.
“Sir, why is there so much water in your clothes…”
Executive Officer Lin was currently in a fit of anger. Moreover, he was now paranoid. He only felt that Jiang Xuecheng must be observing him from somewhere in the dark. Executive Officer Lin was even more displeased.
Previously, he had been threatened by Jiang Xuecheng for so long. Now that Executive Officer Lin finally met two people who could vent their anger, he immediately berated them.
“Is this something you can ask?! Do you think you can be a butler if you don’t work as a bodyguard?! I’ll fire you two when we get back!”
They didn’t even see when such a grown man like Jiang Xuecheng went in! They didn’t know to rush in and protect Executive Officer Lin even after seeing that he hadn’t come out for so long!
He would fire them when he got back!
The two burly bodyguards suddenly felt a little wronged. What did they do wrong? Why did it feel like Executive Officer Lin had turned into a firecracker after going to the bathroom?
The two of them looked at each other and shut their mouths at the same time. They were both boorish people and didn’t know what to say at all. They could only silently follow behind Executive Officer Lin.
When the person-in-charge of Hope Primary School saw Executive Officer Lin like this, he was also puzzled.
He remembered that Executive Officer Lin had previously mentioned that he wanted to go to the student dormitory, so he immediately asked carefully.
“Executive, didn’t you say that you wanted to go to the student dormitory to see the situation? Now we…”
Before the person-in-charge of hope primary school could finish his sentence, Executive Officer Lin suddenly waved his hand and interrupted him.
“I’m not free, I’m not going! Today’s inspection ends here!”
Ah?!
The inspection has ended?
No Way, Executive Officer Lin had only been here for less than half an hour…
The person in charge of the school did not understand how he had offended this lord, but when he saw the two bodyguards being scolded in front of him, he did not dare to have any objections.
“Alright, thank you for your hard work, Executive. When you return, I will send you a copy of the specific situation of the school.”
Executive Officer Lin listened absentmindedly. He did not have the time to pay attention to the words of this person in charge of the school. His mind was full of thoughts on the virus in him!
