Tangling with the Western Commander

Chapter 366: Chapter 363

It really was an unfortunate start, just now he had finally caught that person.

The result was a cunning attempt at escape and a moment of unpreparedness led to receiving a slash from a dagger.

He pushed open the door to the restroom, his expression grim as he walked inside.

Luckily, Lu Xiao had managed to catch and subdue the person.

Otherwise, his injuries would have been for nothing.

The man turned on the tap, rinsing the blood flowing down from his palm; the wound was somewhat long, yet not very deep, but it bled quite profusely.

With his sleeves rolled up, his slender fingers efficiently dealt with the scene.

In the mirror, the man with jet-black hair, slightly long eyes, and an expression of indescribable cynicism and ruffianism was none other than Shen Lin, who had come with Lu Xiao to catch the culprit.

The target had come here to the nightclub for entertainment after getting off work tonight, and upon receiving word through the grapevine, he had immediately notified Lu Xiao.

Everything had been going smoothly, all according to plan, except for the unexpected slash.

At this moment, another man entered the restroom.

This man had been drinking, his steps somewhat unsteady.

Looking for a toilet, but when he suddenly pushed open one of the doors, he found a girl lying unconscious inside…!

The short-haired girl lay there semi-conscious, her head tilted to the side, and the restroom light illuminated her pale neck and the faint blush on her cheeks, causing the man who opened the door to stare transfixed.

Soon, a sleazy light gradually emerged in the depths of his eyes.

He sobered up a bit, hurried inside, and quickly tried to shut the door.

What luck.

Although it was common to see inebriated women in nightclubs, occasionally getting lucky with one was still a score.

But this one was particularly tender, clearly young with attractive features.

Just as he was hurrying to close the door, eager to have his fun, suddenly he found the door wouldn’t shut completely, as if something was blocking it.

As he frowned and tried to force it closed–

“Bang–!”

The door was violently kicked open, smashing against his head and sending him stumbling backward, slamming into the wall.

“Fuck… Who the hell is it? Looking to die?!”

With his good time so rudely interrupted, the man angrily turned to the doorway.

There stood a man in a black jacket, staring unwaveringly at him.

The man’s lips slightly curved, watching him with an almost mocking chuckle, and then he said:

“Dude, isn’t it a bit unscrupulous to play with such a young girl all by yourself?”

Upon hearing this, the aggressor’s face turned from green to white, and back again, he retorted angrily, “It’s none of your fucking business! Stop being so damn nosy; I saw her first.”

With that, he roughly grasped the arm of the short-haired girl on the floor, intending to leave the place.

But Shen Lin stood blocking the way, unmoving.

He glanced at the girl’s face, partially hidden by her disheveled hair, sensing something vaguely familiar, but he didn’t dwell on it for the moment.

When he looked back at the man, the curve of his lips grew deeper, and then he began to laugh quietly.

The laughter made the other man’s skin crawl, fury mixed with embarrassment, he threw a punch at Shen Lin’s face.

But before the punch could land, he suddenly screamed in pain, then quickly released the girl and clutched at his crotch, his face contorted in pain as he slowly dropped to his knees.

“…!”

And just as his grip on the girl relaxed, she started to fall forward uncontrollably.

Shen Lin smoothly caught her, cradling the unconscious girl in his arms.
