13: Chapter 13 A Grand Ride on Horseback 13: Chapter 13 A Grand Ride on Horseback Liu Hun didn’t know what Fen Ran meant. He looked into the vulnerability in Fen Ran’s eyes, saw a tear welling up, “What’s wrong with you? Quick, show me the wound.” Fen Ran felt heartache. She slightly furrowed her brows as the hands Liu Hun rested on her shoulders emitted a faint warmth. She enjoyed this, and liked how Liu Hun was holding her. Only now did she truly understand why Bai Lian and Qin Yue were both drawn to Liu Hun. Because Liu Hun was a real man, by his side, one could feel the tenderness that other men couldn’t provide. Liu Hun coldly smirked as he stood up. He walked over to the bald strongman, squatted down, “You just said, you wanted to deal with me, wanted to set your dog on me, right? Now, there’s still time to correct your mistake, I can even overlook the destruction of my cornfield. But, her leg was bitten by your dog, and if you can’t get her back to the village on your back, I’ll take your life!” The bald strongman trembled, nodding his head repeatedly. In front of Liu Hun, all his dominance melted into a meek little kitten. “Now, immediately, go!” Liu Hun commanded in a deep voice. The bald strongman crawled towards Fen Ran in a scramble, sprawling on the ground with both his hands and feet. “If you dare to make any other move, if you dare do anything else, I guarantee you’ll be crippled for life! Do you understand me?” Liu Hun said icily. A twisted, mock smile appeared on the bald strongman’s face, the flesh around his face contorting together. Fen Ran stepped back, her eyes filled with fear when she looked at the bald strongman. Seeing this, Liu Hun shook his head with a smile, “Don’t be afraid, I’m here, he wouldn’t dare do anything to you.” The bald strongman sullenly pursed his lips. A big guy like him couldn’t beat a boy who looked like a bamboo stick; if word of this got out, how could he ever mix with the ten miles of countryside? Several village chiefs didn’t dare to forcefully meddle with him, and now Liu Huyi, this kid? Liu Hun kicked the bald strongman’s buttocks, with those shifty eyes, what was going through his mind, how could Liu Hun not guess? “You want to die?” “No, no... I don’t wanna die!” the bald strongman pleaded repeatedly. “Louder!” barked Liu Hun. “I don’t wanna die!” the bald strongman roared to the sky, his face ugly. Liu Hun’s mouth curved into a smile. He squatted down, placing a palm on the bald strongman’s neck, “Now, I’m asking you, I’ve killed your dog, even dared to hit you, any objections?” “No... none.” “What about if I slap your face?” Liu Hun sneered coldly. “No...” “What was that? I didn’t hear you clearly?” Liu Hun asked. “No objections! I won’t dare do it again, boss,” the bald strongman kept begging for mercy, worried that Liu Hun would smash him against a rock like he did with the dog, worried that Liu Hun would kill him with a single punch. Liu Hun had a deep disdain for the behavior of bullies; it was what he despised most. Had he not followed Fen Ran that day, who knew what might have happened to her. To deal with a bully, one needed to be even more fierce than the bully, to let them know they were not to be trifled with. Especially after seeing what the bully had done to Fen Ran, rage had filled his heart. “Now, immediately behave like a dog, and let her ride you back to the village. If you have any other sneaky ideas, I won’t spare you again,” Liu Hun’s voice was ice cold. “Yes, yes, yes,” the bald thug crouched on the ground. Fen Ran rode on the bald thug’s back, listening to his barks along the way, while watching Liu Hun’s icy face, looking particularly handsome. She found it hard to imagine that Liu Hun, once viewed as the poorest and least capable man in Wanbao Village, could possess such strength today, compelling the bully who was hated throughout ten miles of countryside to submit completely. She had initially wanted Liu Hun himself to carry her back to the village, but considering what people might say if they saw the two of them like that, she dismissed the idea. Having the bald thug, who had bullied her, act as a dog to ride back to the village was the ultimate satisfaction. Upon returning home, Liu Hun threw a piece of straw rope next to the bald thug, “Put this rope around your neck yourself, then roll back home! If you dare to do this again, don’t blame me for leaving you with a lifelong disability!” “Yes, yes, yes,” the bald thug scurried to flee. Liu Hun promptly shouted, “Stop right there!” The bald thug turned around tremblingly, “Wha... what else is there?” With a smile on his lips, Liu Hun said, “Listen carefully. This is Wanbao Village, and my name is Liu Hun. If you wish to seek revenge, come find me. Now, get lost!” He was not someone who enjoyed trouble, but he could make a guess or two about the bald thug’s character. By saying this, he meant to direct all the bald thug’s anger towards himself and steer him away from Fen Ran. Unable to take Liu Hun’s torment any longer, the bald thug let out a cry of alarm, sprinted to the village entrance, and threw down the straw rope from his neck forcefully. His gaze fixed on where Liu Hun stood, he viciously declared, “So, you’re Liu Hun. Liu! Hun! You just wait for me, wait!” With that, he bolted away down the small road leading out of the village. “Little Hun, you’re so good to me, really, I never expected you to be this formidable. I’ve never felt this relieved in my whole life. Today was really a joy,” Fen Ran chuckled, about to stand up when her hand accidentally brushed her injured calf, causing her eyes to squint in pain with an “ouch.” “Let me take a look,” Liu Hun carefully shifted Fen Ran onto the chair. Just as he knelt down, lifting Fen Ran’s calf slowly, his hands were extremely gentle on her leg muscle, feeling the extreme softness and the elasticity covered by the flesh-colored transparent stockings, creating an aesthetic of flowing curves. Nevertheless, Liu Hun’s gaze focused on a swollen wound on her calf that had clearly been bitten by a dog. “If this wound isn’t treated properly, once infected, it could lead to something serious,” Liu Hun frowned. “Oh, is it that severe? Then... should I go to the hospital?” Fen Ran became anxious upon hearing Liu Hun’s words. Liu Hun glanced at his right palm. He faintly felt that he could heal the wound effectively. However, using True Qi to heal could lead to misunderstandings and possibly make him the oddball in the villagers’ mouths. “It’s nothing, just to scare you. By the way, do you have red flower oil?” Liu Hun asked. “Red flower oil, it’s in the second drawer of that cabinet,” Fen Ran pointed to the second small cabinet placed on top, watching Liu Hun follow her finger to get it, feeling an increasing warmth in her heart. Liu Hun was really a gentle and considerate person; how had she not noticed it before? Liu Hun fetched the red flower oil, walked over to Fen Ran’s side, “It’s going to hurt a bit; you’ll have to bear with it.”
