Chapter 148: Accepting Defeat
Qin Jiu's collarbone was broken by Shen Ning's attack. He could no longer lift his left arm. His face turned pale and his tone no longer had the previous domineering tone.
He suddenly realized that Shen Ning had shown mercy. If she had used a knife, he would have become a "one-armed man" at this moment.
It was clearly an early spring night, still chilly, but beads of sweat appeared on Qin Jiu's forehead...
A strong desire to quit began to arise in my heart.
But he held his breath and refused to admit defeat.
Qin Jiu cursed angrily, "What kind of ability is it to hide the tail!"
Shen Ning sneered, "I can beat you, that's my ability!"
A clear voice suddenly sounded, Qin Jiu's eyes flashed, and he rushed forward again holding his dagger...
Shen Ning estimated his trajectory, and when Qin Jiu rushed up, he suddenly disappeared from the spot, and then appeared behind him again...
As if to avenge Qin Jiu for tearing her clothes, Shen Ning also changed her weapon.
She swung the foot-long machete with great force, completely breaking down Qin Jiu's psychological defenses.
What's the difference between this and finding yourself locked in the same room with a chainsaw maniac in the middle of the night?
He claimed that he was born into a family of martial arts and had few rivals among his peers. When he saw Wang Mazi being beaten that day, he was indeed curious.
Later, after suffering a loss, he found out that the other party was just a woman of seventeen or eighteen years old. Naturally, he felt unconvinced, and that's why he kept wanting to get back at her.
But I didn't expect to end up in such a situation...
I was already at the end of my strength, but the other party was calm and composed, like a cat playing with a mouse.
The sharp blade that appeared from time to time in the night was like the last straw that broke the camel's back.
This is all so weird...
In fact, Shen Ningyuan was not as relaxed as Qin Jiu thought.
The place where she entered and exited the space was the same every time. This required her to spend a hundred times more time to estimate and determine Qin Jiu's position, so as to ensure that she would not run into him the next time she left the space...
……
The two of them were in a stalemate for a while. Qin Jiu was completely scared. His body, legs, and arms were covered with wounds. He even suspected that Shen Ning was deliberately letting him win.
When the blade flew past his scalp again, Qin Jiu's psychological defenses completely collapsed.
He even lost the courage to fight on and had the urge to break the window and escape, but at this moment, he heard the barking of the black dog outside the window...
Qin Jiu gritted his teeth and said, "I admit defeat! I admit defeat!"
He just finished speaking.
With a "click", the lights in the house came on again.
Qin Jiu turned around suddenly and saw Shen Ning's beautiful face.
She was still as delicate and well-behaved as before, but in his eyes now she looked like a murderous evil spirit from hell.
Legend has it that ghosts have no shadows...
Qin Jiu immediately looked down and saw Shen Ning's dark shadow under the light, and instantly breathed a sigh of relief.
Then he thought of the bet between him and Shen Ning. His fair face flushed red, and he lost his arrogant attitude. He just stared at Shen Ning...
Shen Ning also closely watched his movements, wondering whether he should kill him and put an end to it all...
But Qin Jiu closed his eyes, sighed suddenly, with a dejected look on his face, knelt on his knees with a "thump", and kowtowed three times quickly.
"Aunt! Aunt! Aunt!"
Shen Ning: “…”
Qin Jiu stood up quickly again, "A real man should accept defeat. I am arrogant and don't know how high the sky is or how deep the earth is. I am indeed no match for you. You can kill me or rob me as you like. I accept it!"
Shen Ning was stunned. She didn't expect that Qin Jiu would be so true to her promise. However, her tone was still cold, and a murderous aura lingered around her body.
"I hate trouble, but I'm not afraid of it. Today, this is just a small warning.
If you dare to have any thoughts about me next time, I will kill you."
Shen Ning's tone was very flat, without even the slightest ups and downs.
Qin Jiu raised his eyes and met her dark almond eyes, but was so frightened that his whole body trembled. He had been in the underworld for so many years and had seen all kinds of people. Naturally, he knew that Shen Ning was not joking.
She has such ability and courage, and also such means...
He hesitated, "Are you really willing to let me go?"
Shen Ning snorted coldly, "What else?
I'm going to kill people at the slightest friction. Do I look like some kind of perverted murderer?"
Qin Jiu straightened his body instantly, his eyes falling on the machete that was still stained with his blood.
The blood droplets on the blade slowly slid down to the tip of the blade, and then with a "click", they fell to the ground...
How come it doesn't look like that?
It's like the murderer is possessed by the devil...
But Qin Jiu didn't dare to say it.
No! He felt that Shen Ning was more terrifying than a murderer!
He swallowed and suddenly felt happy that he had saved his life.
Qin Jiu didn't even dare to walk out of the door that Shen Ning opened. He stared at Shen Ning warily and opened the window behind him with one hand.
He stepped one foot out of the windowsill and moved his body tentatively, his eyes fixed on Shen Ning.
"and many more!"
He was startled, "What...what happened?"
"You broke my things, pay me."
In just a few seconds, Qin Jiu felt like he had walked through the gate of Hell.
After reacting, Qin Jiu heaved a sigh of relief and took out all the money in his pocket, treating it as money to buy his life.
Seeing that Shen Ning didn't say anything, he thought she was not very satisfied, and hurriedly took off the big gold chain around his neck and put it on the windowsill, "Here you go, all for you. If it's not enough, I'll give you more another day!"
Shen Ning looked at the big gold chain in silence, but he had no intention of robbing it...
Qin Jiu moved his body again.
"and many more!"
Qin Jiu was so frightened that he almost knelt down before her again, feeling both fearful and angry, "What on earth do you want?"
Shen Ning frowned and asked the question in his heart, "How did you recognize me?"
"what?"
Qin Jiu was stunned, as if he didn't expect Shen Ning to stop him just to ask such a simple question.
After thinking it over, he said honestly, "I have had a keen sense of smell since I was a child, and you had a strong orchid scent on you in the alley that day.
At the entrance of the village branch, I had already dispelled my doubts, but when the wind blew, I smelled the familiar scent of flowers again.
I have a very sensitive nose.
Although the smell on you is very faint, I can still tell it at the first sight..."
Shen Ning suddenly realized, and thinking of the orchids in full bloom in the space and the rich fragrance of the flowers, he nodded slightly.
It was indeed my own negligence...
Qin Jiu no longer had the arrogant attitude at this moment, and asked with a pinched throat, "Sister, can I leave now?"
