Rebirth of a Nation's Darling – Prince Charming

Chapter 15

Prince Charming, The Bug Killer

Si Huang could even see the gloating glint in his eyes. To her surprise, the waitress didn’t seem angry or desperate. Her voice even sounded calm.

“You’re the only ones causing me trouble. You don’t have to deliberately toy with me with words like that.” After a pause, the girl’s voice sounded very youthful. “You’re not gonna leave me alone today, are you, Brother Poison?”

Poison Eyes curled his lips and laughed. “That’s what I like about you, Lingling. You’re not weak like other chicks. You’re right, I’m not a patient man. I’ve been asking you to be my girl for a long time, and you still haven’t agreed. I have no choice.”

He spoke as if it was the girl’s fault for being unreasonable. “Be a good girl today,” Poison Eyes said with a smile. “You’ll be my girl from now on, and if you misbehave… Well, let’s just say… the more, the merrier. Heh.”

The eyes of the underling who had previously spoken lit up. “You’re such a scholar, bro!”

The waitress fell momentarily silent, which Poison Eyes interpreted as consent. He gave them a meaningful look and his thugs regretfully stepped away. However, they did not go very far. It seemed like they wanted to enjoy the show.

Then, Si Huang finally had a clear view of the face of the girl, who had drawn her interest.

Her skin was fair with a slight tan. She had pretty, delicate eyebrows and lovely almond-shaped eyes that were perfectly placed on her heart-shaped face. She was a beauty in the bloom of her youth.

The cold, resilient expression on her beautiful face added a certain flavor to her. It was no wonder Poison Eyes was attracted to her.

However, this girl looked like she was under 20 years old. Who knew why she was working as a waitress at Night and had run into this bad luck.

“She looks familiar,” Si Huang mumbled to herself before she suddenly heard the girl mutter quietly, “Poison Eyes, I will make you pay for what you’re going to do to me today.”

Her words had no effect on Poison Eyes. They excited him even more instead. “You will learn to love me… and this.” His meaningful tone along with the bulge in his pants finally created a crack in the girl’s calm exterior.

Poison Eyes bent down, reached out with his hand, and pulled the girl’s pants down straight away. Two to three thugs jeered and laughed in the meantime.

A figure sprinted toward them from 100 meters away. There was no time for any of the thugs to react. Then, a man’s scream was heard before the world went silent.

Si Huang tossed the rock in her hand away and kicked Poison Eyes in the stomach.

“Ugh!” Blood was foaming in Poison Eyes’ mouth.

Si Huang made sure that Poison Eyes would not be able to stand up again for a while. Then, she turned around and fought with the other thugs.

She was too fast. The strength in her punches and kicks was a stark contrast to her slender figure. One punch was enough to knock someone unconscious, and one kick was enough to break a man’s bones. As a result, none of the six thugs managed to escape.

Si Huang had never imagined that she would receive such a huge skill upgrade. She almost lost control and nearly kicked them to death. However, even if she did beat them to death, the police wouldn’t bother to launch an investigation. After all, people like them, who walked on the dark side of society, ran into all sorts of accidents every day.

“Poison Eyes.” Si Huang walked toward Poison Eyes, bent down, and stared down at his twisted, agonized face.

“Y-You?” Poison Eyes recognized her as the soulful singer on the stage. Even he had been enthralled at the time and had only remembered to drag the girl away at the very end. “Not everyone can play the hero and save the damsel in distress, kid. Don’t you know…” His threat came to an end when Si Huang took off her cap and revealed his beautiful face. His pupils dilated.

“Looks like you still remember me.” Si Huang chuckled. “Good. I’m here because I want something from you.”

Si Huang’s charisma exceeded the limitations of gender norms. His smile, which was indescribably beautiful, completely dazzled Poison Eyes. However, he was unmoved in the face of such unparalleled beauty. He felt strangely terrified instead. This was a completely different feeling from when he had first met Si Huang, so it frightened him. “W-What is it?”

“The recording of that conversation you had with Si Hua. I want the part when he tells you to frame me,” Si Huang said.

“Is this a joke?” Poison Eyes let out a dry laugh. His pupils trembled violently.

Si Huang fell momentarily silent. His eyes then lit up with a smile. He stood up elegantly and placed one foot on Poison Eyes’ hand. Then, he slowly ground his foot.

“AAAARRRGGHH!” Poison Eyes’ face was suddenly drained of color. He dearly wished to pull his hand away. Unfortunately, he couldn’t move it at all.

Cr-aack—Cr-aack—

The sound of cracking bones contrasted against Si Huang’s gentle movements. “Mm… Consider it a joke then.” She smiled. She then gently removed her foot from Poison Eyes’ now crippled hand. Before Poison Eyes could manage to sigh in relief, he felt pressure on his crotch and his entire body broke into a cold sweat. Then, he convulsed violently. “I’ll tell you! It’s on my phone, but I don’t have my phone on me. I’ll give it to you later!”

Si Huang nodded, feeling satisfied, and promptly stepped on his crotch all the way through.

“NNNGGGHHH!” The extreme pain nearly made Poison Eyes’ eyes pop out of their sockets. He died before he could even scream.

Si Huang swiftly removed her foot, turned around, and faced one of the six thugs. “You. Search him,” she ordered.

The thug forced himself to his feet, reached into the dead Poison Eyes’ pocket, and took out the phone without a word. He even made the effort to take a packet of tissues out of his own pocket and carefully wipe the phone before giving it to Si Huang.

He didn’t do this because the phone was poisoned. He just had a hunch that Si Huang was a clean freak. His movements were natural, and Si Huang accepted the phone naturally as well. In reality, she was too disgusted to touch Poison Eyes’ body.

She looked through the phone and soon found what she needed.

Despite Poison Eyes’ degenerate ways, he was crafty. However, that alone was not enough. He was no visionary. She remembered that Si Hua had framed her in her past life and she had been forced to swallow drugs by Poison Eyes. A series of unfortunate events had soon followed, preventing her from getting revenge. By the time she’d had the opportunity and the ability, Poison Eyes had been dead.

He had died because he’d kept using the recording to blackmail Si Hua. His greed had driven Si Hua to end his life. As for the recording, Si Hua had obviously deleted it. She had found out because Si Hua had mentioned it to her in passing when he had been in the middle of taunting her. Furthermore, the thug in front of her had mentioned it too.

After sending the recording to her phone, Si Huang handed Poison Eyes’ remains to the young thug.

He was a teenager younger than Si Huang with average, delicate features. His complexion was dark yellow in color due to malnutrition and frequent exposure to the elements. He had spiky hair and small bumps all over, so someone had probably pulled his hair during a fight.
