Chapter 289: Blaming Herself (Part One)
Bei Shan said, “Why is this junior brother different? Because his card is the 2 of Diamonds!”
The 8 and J of Diamonds immediately narrowed their eyes and straightened up their backs.
“The 2 of Diamonds?” The J of Diamonds exclaimed, “Senior Brother, was this decided by the Division Master?”
Bei Shan said, “Yes, but this guy doesn’t know anything about the Division Master’s intention in giving him that card, and he doesn’t even really know much about the Dragon Division completely yet. What the Division Master means is, the focus right now is to sharpen his skills, and I’m here on duty to protect him.”
The J of Diamonds couldn’t help but feel a bit curious. “I’m now kind of eager to see what this guy is like. This is the first number 2 card that appeared since the establishment of Huaxia, right?”
Bei Shan nodded. “The last one was the 2 of Spades, which was the Division Master himself, and ever since then, he had hidden the 2s, just so that one day if the Dragon Division really gets exposed, people will only focus on the Joker and the 4 Sky Kings and 12 Earth Kings, and no one would ever pay attention to the only 2! This would be the last resort left by the Division if the Dragon Division gets caught in a fatal crisis.”
Upon hearing about the Division Master, the other two immediately became a little upset and worried, knowing that the Division Master was already very old. If he really didn’t have a successor, then the Dragon Division would collapse!
“Senior Brother, what does the Division Master really see in a Dragon Blade that even needs our protection?” The 8 of Diamonds was a bit confused.
Bei Shan grinned. “Why don’t you two ask me how was he hospitalized?”
The J of Diamonds asked curiously, ‘That’s true, what did he do?”
Bei Shan: “He went to the Queen’s birthday party and swore at her, and then he also insulted all the nobles and aristocrats at that party.”
The 8 of Diamonds’s eyelids jumped. “Swore at the Queen? And even insulted? That old grandma’s already 89 years old right? Holy crap, I’m convinced now!”
Bei Shan: “What’s more ridiculous was that after he called those nobles trash, he even got into a fight and beat those nobles up. Then, he cleared a blood path from the Platinum Palace’s door to the gate of the estate. Almost a hundred of the Royal Guards were beaten down tonight.”
The 8 and J of Diamonds could only squeeze out two words, “Holy, f-ck.”
What level of holy f-ck was this?
Not only did this guy stir up a sh-tstorm at the Queen’s birthday party, he also insulted basically all the nobles at that party, beat them up, and then he also managed to beat up about a hundred royal guards. Just how overpowered was this guy?
Just moments ago, the 8 and J were still despising him. And now, they could only bitterly smile. If it was them, they would be retarded to do what the 2 of Diamonds just did, because they would be beaten to death over 10 times over.
Going to the birthday party of the Queen, insulting the royals, and even stirring up a fight, only madmen would do such a thing.
The J of Diamonds bitterly laughed. “This guy is indeed a 2, he’s basically the same type of guy as the Division Master… “
The 8 of Diamonds: “Did they use guns?”
Bei Shan nodded. “Yes. Xu Cheng was hit 4 times, and now he’s still in the E.R.! We don’t know what will happen, but what we need to do is to stop any assassination attempts during this time. It’s the first time someone disrespected the royalty on their territory, and the British Government won’t let this kind of guy leave the country easily. Now, it looks like we have to play with our old acquaintance, the MI6.”
Chapter 289: Blaming Herself (Part Two)
The J of Diamonds popped a piece of gum into his mouth and chewed. “I’m almost about to vomit from dealing with those guys too much. They are really like gum that just stick to you, but they do do a good job with collecting intel.”
Bei Shan gave out a few orders and then went upstairs. He went back to the corridor outside of the emergency room where he saw Lin Chuxue’s hair draped down on her delicate face which had no hint of color. She just leaned against the wall and stared at the red light in the operating room.
Bei Shan walked over and patted on Lin Lei’s shoulder and pulled him off to the side. He said to him, “When something this big happens, you know there will be more tonight, right?”
Lin Lei nodded. “If it’s really like what my sister said, then tonight, my brother-in-law will be in big danger.”
Bei Shan nodded. “So you should think of a way to let your sister hide for now.”
Lin Lei bitterly smiled. “It would be impossible. I know her, she’s pretty stubborn.”
Bei Shan. “Then you can knock her unconscious first, I will teach you how.”
Lin Lei shook his head. “This thing involves my brother-in-law, and if I were to do it and something were to happen to my brother-in-law tonight, she would hate me for the rest of her life after she wakes up.”
Looking at the hopeless Lin Chuxue in the corridor, he sighed and walked over, wanting to say something to her, but he only heard Lin Chuxue faintly say, “I will not leave, no matter what you say.”
Bei Shan paused, and his mouth that was open and was just about to say something closed.
Lin Chuxue said, “With things getting to this scale, even if Xu Cheng was pulled back from the death, it wouldn’t be the end of the troubles. I won’t leave this place. I already got my family to prepare a helicopter, and we are taking him away right after he wakes up. We will go back to Huaxia.”
Bei Shan sighed. “I’m just worried that he won’t even get to wake up again.”
Lin Chuxue gritted her teeth and said with her bloodshot eyes, “No way, the doctor said he’s still struggling and unwilling to go. I know he wouldn’t leave me behind, so he will wake up for sure! After he wakes up, we will go back to Huaxia. F*ck the nobles and royalty! If anything, I will just destroy my face, as long as I don’t bring Xu Cheng any trouble, I’m willing to do anything.”
Always being very ladylike, Lin Chuxue actually cursed as she talked about her plan.
Lin Lei turned around and looked at Lin Chuxue. “Sis, this isn’t your fault. This is just an obstacle that was left in my brother-in-law’s heart. If we can get through this together, then he won’t feel guilty again. At least now, he already proved himself.”
Lin Chuxue’s eyes began tearing up again and she blamed herself, “No, it had been my fault all along… If I wasn’t so prideful in the beginning, if it wasn’t my identity, Xu Cheng wouldn’t have to endure this much pressure to try and prove himself to anyone. Since beginning to end, it had been me that forced him to walk to this kind of situation. I’m such a selfish woman! I couldn’t let go my prideful identity and always hoped that my man would be better than the others. It was me that got Xu Cheng hurt. “
As she said that, she guilty huddled herself into her knees. The little body in a dress covered in blood would make anyone’s heart ache.
“Sis, it’s not like this. There had always been a rock on my brother-in-law’s heart. In the past, Uncle Xu also ran away with the woman he loved, but in the end, he still couldn’t give his lover a righteous identity. As a result, my brother-in-law couldn’t even be open about his own identity, having to be adopted by us and endure all the strange looks of those around him. He just didn’t want his kids with you to endure something like this too. It wasn’t you that’s pressuring him, but his own path and background. This isn’t your fault, so don’t blame yourself.”
