Chapter 135: Catfight  

"What‽" Wushuang was dumbfounded. How could it be Xia Xinghe?

Wasn’t Black Three on his way to kill her, how can she be here?

Wushuang was spooked, but she gathered her courage and peered through the peephole. Xia Xinghe was indeed standing outside their door.

She glared icily at the peephole as if staring at her through it!

Wushuang almost screamed out in shock. Xinghe was like a ghost that had returned to claim their lives. For some reason, Wushuang and Wu Rong shivered in fear.

"How is she here?" Wushuang asked concernedly, "Could it be that Black Three has failed?"

Wu Rong’s face went several shades paler. "That’s impossible..."

"But if not, why is she here?" The reality finally settled in for Wushuang. She was beside herself with worry. "Mom, what should we do? Black Three probably sold us out after he failed so she’s here to confront us!"

Wu Rong was equally flustered but she calmed herself quickly.

magic "Don’t fret. Maybe Black Three hasn’t made his move yet. Furthermore, even if he fails, he will not sell us out!"

"Why?" This was the question that was bugging Wushuang.

Only an idiot would bear the entirety of the crime and not incriminate them.

Wu Rong grabbed Wushuang’s arm tightly and said under her breath, "Because he’s under the impression that you’re his daughter, even though you’re not!"

"What..." Wushuang was at a loss for words. She had a hard time processing what her mom just said.

"In any case, for your sake, he won’t sell us out. Let’s see what Xia Xinghe wants first, don’t panic..."

"Okay..." Wushuang nodded somewhat vacantly.

With each other support, the mother-and-daughter pair calmed down fairly quickly.

In the meantime, Xinghe kept on hitting the doorbell. She didn’t push it in a hurry but slowly at a constant interval. Each one sounded like a requiem beyond the grave.

Finally, the door slid open to reveal a small crack.

Wu Rong glared at Xinghe from behind the door, asking, "Xia Xinghe, what are you doing here?"

Xinghe returned her glare and said plainly, "You honestly don’t know why I’m here?"

Wu Rong snorted. "How would I know that? In any case, you are not welcome here! Leave immediately or this might turn physical!"

"Fine, then let’s have it your way," Xinghe launched a kick at the door, knocking Wu Rong and Wushuang back. They collapsed to the floor like a pair of dominoes.

"Xia Xinghe, what are you doing‽" Wushuang and Wu Rong screamed in unison.

They didn’t expect Xinghe to be so audacious.

"What am I doing?" Xinghe stepped into the room gracefully, stared down at them and said, "Of course to collect my debt."

Wu Rong’s eyes shuddered briefly. "What debt? I warn you, if you don’t leave right this moment, I’ll chase you out myself!"

"Won’t you agree we are way past that by this point? Hit me with everything you got, because I’m going to do the same!"

Xinghe let loose another kick at Wu Rong’s chest.

Wu Rong screamed in pain.

"Mom!" Wushuang climbed up and charged viciously at Xinghe. "B*tch, I’m going to kill you!"

Xinghe stepped out of her way nimbly and kicked at Wushuang’s knees. Wushuang crumpled to the floor instantly.

"Wushuang..." Wu Rong clambered to her daughter in a hurry to check on her condition.

Actually, there wasn’t much force behind Xinghe’s attacks. Wu Rong and Wushuang’s face suffered more damage than their bodies.
