Chapter 465: Zi’s resentment
Translator: - - Editor: - -
Suddenly, a male that appeared like a military instructor, roared abruptly.
“Go!”
His tone was icy and filled with fury. The 10 males uniformly raised their rubber police truncheons; roaring furiously, they swung it straight towards that trapped female with their utmost strength!
At this instant, as though she had anticipated their attack, the trapped female suddenly did a backward flip. Wrapping her knees in midair, like she was a graceful bird, she nimbly somersaulted past the male behind her. This move appeared tremendously difficult, but strictly speaking, one could frequently view olympic female gymnast pulling it off. It definitely wasn’t a humanly impossible move.
Though their first assault yielded no result, the 10 males weren’t discouraged at all. Instead, they immediately formed into an intersecting 2 rows formation, arranging neatly like a thick wall before that female; before maintaining their vigilant and tight footwork. Europeans naturally possessed larger builds; in addition to their uniform footwork, they portrayed an impressive display of manpower.
At this very moment, the foremost male bellowed angrily as he swung his truncheon forward. Instead, as his bellow faded, he suddenly felt his hand turning light, as though it was suspended in the air; before his entire self stumbled forward to his center of gravity. Upon closer inspection, the police truncheon he was holding had shockingly flew out of his hand, as it landed against the wall with a bam. He groaned painfully as he clutched his chest before gently tripping to the ground.
No one could tell when, but the opposing icy and tall female had already drew out 2 brightly shimmering and slender rapiers! Instead, the rapiers had their sharp tips grinded blunt, and should be fencing rapiers. Though that was so, observing the agonizing state of that male, it suggested the possibility of a rib fracture. Such was the tremendous might unleashed.
After executing her move, this icy and tall female spreaded her arms open like a bird spreading its wings. Then, she faced the opposing intersecting aggression, as she issued a light admonishing sound to them.
Closely following that, the remaining males maintained their formation as they advanced a step forward! Then, they segregated into group assaults! The 3 foremost males that were in attacking range, simultaneously swiped their police truncheon towards that female! The weapons tore through the air, as it released oppressive ‘Huvrom” sounds!
Retreating a step backwards, that female evaded the joint assault of the three males. In the next second, a sharp dazzling flash of rapier carved out a silverish afterimage, abruptly slicing down like an electric current; as speedy as a flash! It appears that her fencing art heavily emphasized two aspects – upright beheading chops and thrusting!
Without hesitation, the few males roared as they raised their truncheons and smashed down as well. They advanced unceasingly, swiping forth their truncheons unceasingly and issued relentless attacks. Nevertheless, the dazzling shimmer of the icy female’s slender rapiers silently streaked through the air; carving out excellent thin lines in mid air. Thump! Occasionally, one could hear the echoes of one falling to the ground. She either ingeniously evaded any incoming police truncheon, or directly repelled them head on; allowing her to easily somersault away!
As the amount of aggressors gradually declined, that icy female’s brightly shimmering rapier continued thrusting out gorgeous traces in the air, releasing criss-cross cuts with the sounds of ‘hu’. Clashing sparks scattered around, while she lowered her body and slid around like an elegant butterfly. Finally, she reached the front of that military instructor, as her twin dazzling rapiers thrusted towards his throat like a spitting viper!
That military instructor roared furiously, as he lowered himself and swept his leg forward in retaliation. Instead, that female retreated and avoided his sweeping leg, while the left rapier was hurled out from her left hand like a venomous spit of the viper; piercing through his collar, as it pinned his clothing to the ground.
This rapier thrust was evidently an act of mercy, or else, why would it have strayed? The military instructor’s expression was incomparably ugly, as he shook his head and sighed in disappointment.
After releasing that strike, the tall female kept her rapier and stood straight. Shey didn’t display a single bit of strength that exceeded the realms of an ordinary person, but wholeheartedly relied on her sword skills to overwhelm this duel; taking down 10 with 1! Those burly chaps that had clearly gone through harsh training, wasn’t even spared the luxury of retaliating once! One could simply imagine the extent of her combat skills.
Yet though she had triumphed, she didn’t exhibit a single delight; but merely released a despondent breath, as she tossed aside the rapiers. Then, an individual beside her offered her a snow white towel respectfully, which she accepted to wipe her face. Following that, a handsome male assistant with an elegant demeanor marched towards her, while hoisting up a pallet in his hand. A mobile phone was placed over this pallet.
“Director Su. During the afternoon, our E.S financial group board of directors had convened in your absence. The three agreements passed are extremely unfavourable to us. Mr Curry Xanth had just called, with the agenda of discussing relevant partnership details.”
This female was roughly 25-26 years old, but was actually hailed as a board director of the world’s number one, E.S financial group!! Moreover, it seemed like she had immense authority, leading to other board directors colluding to suppress her! Having such accomplishments at this age, she could already be considered a legend.
Director Su then impatiently waved her hand, and sneered.
“Let them pass it! Because it has been far too long, that’s why those idiots are overestimating themselves again! Let Curry Xanth wait a little longer! He truly is childish, does he think the board of director’s policy can influence me?”
While she spoke, she held no regard for her buzzing phone as she directly heading towards her office at the end of the hallway; her brows were tightly knitted together. Clearly walking away for 17-18 metres, Board director Su abruptly glanced backwards, as she questioned her assistant.
“Any news on the matter I’ve asked you to investigate?”
That assistant revealed a reluctant expression as he replied.
“Director Su, the description conditions you gave is truly too little. There is honestly an innumerable amount of news or bizarre cases pertaining to ‘Seaman’. Our side currently has our hand full and cannot handle this momentarily.”
Director Su then quickly turned around as a slight smile suddenly emerged on her face. Even her eyes issued a charming sensation, as though her smile was actually not a smile; her eyes pierced in with dagger like sharpness!
“Is that so? The matters I’ve instructed, you just need to make a call and endorse a 500 pounds capital transaction to a private detective named Jack to handle. I haven’t gotten anyone to monitor the London stock market, but instead you had recently mobilize a huge amount of capital and resource! Obviously, you had your hands full.”
That assistant raised his head, but issued with an extremely sincere and earnest tone.
“Miss Su, now that your position as director of the financial group is being threatened, you should forget about your weird ideas, but place your attention into the business of the financial group.”
Miss Su breathed in deeply as she coldly admonished.
“Do I need you to teach me what to do?”
That male assistant stepped forward, as he smiled wryly.
“It is just that, you are pouring your focus and thousands of capital into an absurd reason. Oh, wrong, you haven’t even provided us with any reason at all, in requesting us to gather related news on the Seaman of the entire world; this is a completely ridiculous task! Putting aside the crisis before you without resolving it, but wasting away with such absurd matters…….I really am unable to continue watching you act so willfully.”
Director Su suddenly squeezed out one word at a time.
“You are fired.”
This elegant demeanored male assistant became stunned, as though he hadn’t heard clearly.
“What?”
Director Su completely ignored him as she directly instructed another female assistant by her side.
“Carry out the dismissal formalities for him. I do not need such individuals who act on their own initiative in my department! In my department, there can only be once voice! And that is my voice, my will! Once an order is issued from me, what I need you to to, then you jolly well do your utmost to accomplish it! Anything that I, Su Lingzi, says, must be treated as the law and reasoning. I don’t permit my orders to be discounted by even one bit!”
That female assistant widened her mouth, attempting to speak up. Su Lingzi’s swept her gare towards her like red phoenix eyes.
Do you also wish to leave?”
That female assistant instantly awoke from her reverie and replied.
“Understood! Understood! Director Su, I will immediately see to it.”
So Lingzi didn’t bother offering a glance at that elegant male assistant, and bluntly marched towards her distant office. This male assistant could only feel like he was stuck in a never ending nightmare; the reason he racked his mind to finally enter E.S financial group, was all because of this director Su of matchless coolness and beauty.
During the previous month, he was even fortunate enough to invite director Su for a dinner date. It could be said that he had broken a record in E.S financial group, something not a single person was known to have accomplished before. Naturally preceding that, he discretely considered himself as her emissary.
Never did he expect that he was to experience such howling winds and torrential rain today; directly awakening him from his fantasy, bringing him back to where he was before!
Clock! Clock! Clock! At this moment, that cool and graceful director Su Lingzi had changed into a pair of high heels, as she gritted her teeth and recited a name.
“Seaman……..”
********
When Sheyan awoke, he had already slept for a night and a whole day. He was famished. After taking a shower, his laziness in cooking up his own meal urged him to head towards the pier in search for something to eat. At one of the shop experiencing excellent business, Sheyan could already smell an unexplainably rich aroma upon arrival at the entrance. Unable to contain himself any longer, he immediately headed in to order several trademark dishes to satiate his belly.
Not long later, the shop owner served a dish to him, while wearing an apron that seemed like it had gone unwashed for ages. This dish had clearly been stewed for a long time. The shop owner gripped an airtight pot with a cleaning rag. After pulling off the lotus leaf that was sealing the opening of the pot, he casually retrieved a clean plate and poured the contents of the pot out. A rich fragrant aroma permeated out. “Gruu gruu” Catching whiff of this aroma, Sheyan’s stomach growled. Unable to cope any longer, he dug into his food.
