Chapter 356: Chapter 252: Acting Like a Madwoman

The sudden words made the surrounding instantly quiet, and everyone stared blankly at Qi Ling.

Qi Ling stood opposite Luo Mingsheng, silently watching him.

Luo Mingsheng was stunned there, his face full of confusion: "Huh?"

Qi Ling’s expression was calm, but hidden currents of treachery flowed in her eyes: "I said, you weren’t blown to pieces last night."

Luo Mingsheng was completely befuddled: "You... what do you mean? Do we know each other?"

Qi Ling’s gaze turned icy cold, devoid of the sweet innocence she once had, instead filled with a terrifying killing intent: "It’s just as well, if you were that easy to kill, it would be a pity."

The unprovoked hostility made Luo Mingsheng panic a little, unconsciously stepping back: "No, who are you, you’ve got the wrong person, I haven’t even seen..."

His words were abruptly cut off, standing there like a statue, his bewildered gaze focusing on Qi Ling’s face.

Those amber eyes wove a strange interplay of light and shadow under the sun’s rays, an overwhelming sense of menace enveloped him.

Qi Ling extended her index fingers to either side of her red lips, lifting them, creating a smile arc.

As her fingers relaxed, the arcs vanished instantly, with her lips forming nearly parallel cold lines.

In an instant, fear from some memory quietly unleashed itself, causing Luo Mingsheng to break out in cold sweat unconsciously.

At this moment, Su Mo strode to Qi Ling, glaring at her, questioning with anger: "Was it all you? Since the beginning, when you approached me, you were scheming against me?"

Upon seeing Su Mo, the coldness in Qi Ling’s eyes vanished without a trace, her lips curving up again into a sunny, sweet smile.

"Hehe, don’t be mad. Our commission isn’t settled yet, strictly speaking, I’m still your girlfriend~" Qi Ling pointed playfully at Luo Mingsheng, "Go on, Mo Mo, help me beat him!"

"Screw you!" Su Mo slapped her fiercely.

With an incredibly loud "slap," Qi Ling was flung to the ground.

Su Mo did not hold back with the slap, striking heavily, leaving Qi Ling bleeding from her mouth and nose, a large purplish-red handprint on her face, with skin and flesh torn, oozing blood.

Qi Ling’s expression remained calm as she casually tucked her disheveled silver hair behind her ear, teasingly said, "Oh~ so you do hit girls, I thought you were the gentleman who’d never lay a hand on a woman."

Su Mo coldly replied: "I don’t hit normal girls, but I do hit those who are asking for it."

Qi Ling chuckled briefly, slowly getting up: "Looks like our little lover’s game is over."

She took out her phone and did some operations, leaving without a backward glance: "The remaining balance is transferred, plus compensation for your damaged equipment and medical expenses, farewell."

Qi Ling hadn’t walked far when suddenly her throat was grabbed, and a feeling of weightlessness followed.

"Thud!" With a dull thud, she was pinned against the wall by Su Mo’s grip on her neck, even the back of her head got hit.

Confronted with someone who deceived him and harmed his comrades, Su Mo had no sentimental mercy, his brows furrowed with cold ruthlessness: "Thought you could just leave after that, are you dreaming?"

Qi Ling’s face, nose, and lips were bloodied, yet she appeared oblivious, still smiling serenely at Su Mo: "So, what do you want to do?"

"Shh—" The Mad Corpse Blood Code activated, sharp bone spikes emerged from Su Mo’s fist.

He raised his fist, the bone spikes merely inches from Qi Ling’s face.

"Want to know? I’m fair, how you hurt my comrades, I’ll hurt you the same way."

"Heh... haha..." Qi Ling let out a low chuckle, and as she chuckled, she suddenly grabbed Su Mo’s wrist.

Su Mo thought she wanted to break free but quickly realized something was off.

Qi Ling wasn’t pushing his hand away...

But in a completely opposite direction...

She was pulling that hand with the bone spikes closer to herself!

"You can hurt me, but you’ll surely be disappointed. Don’t believe? Well then, try it."

Qi Ling holding onto Su Mo’s hand, amusedly watched him, her cat-like smile slowly unfolded, revealing her soft tongue. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

Under Su Mo’s astonished gaze, Qi Ling extended her tongue and pressed it against the bone spike, licking upwards.

Su Mo’s bone spikes were sharper than a knife, Qi Ling’s tongue was deeply slit open, leaving a ghastly gash several centimeters long, with blood gushing out instantly.

Exclamations of shock erupted around, everyone was stunned.

In the human body, the tongue is rich in neurons, and accidentally biting it usually brings mind-numbing pain.

The wound on Qi Ling’s tongue from the bone spike was unimaginably painful, some female researchers were even so scared they covered their eyes.

"See? You can only inflict the same wounds on me, but not the same feelings. Because—"

Qi Ling stuck out her bloody tongue, as if showcasing it to Su Mo, her amber eyes filled with twisted madness.

"I can’t feel pain~"

"Ahahaha! Ahahahahaha!" Qi Ling let out her signature laughter, her facial wounds splitting, blood from her cut tongue constantly flowing out, soon dyeing her chin and collar crimson red.

This crazed and creepy scene stunned everyone present, even Su Mo stood there in disbelief, staring blankly at the blood-covered Qi Ling.

At this moment, Dongdong suddenly snapped back to reality and looked out the window, shouting in alarm: "Boss! Look out!!!"

"Boom!!!" A massive shadow shattered the window and wall, rushing towards Su Mo amid flying debris.

Su Mo was too close to the wall, unable to dodge and was hit directly, rolling away and crashing to the ground.

The thing that crashed into the building was a hovercar, a very advanced commercial model, with a body made of strong alloy, bulletproof and explosion-proof, barely deformed from the impact, only the glass shattered.

There was no one in the cabin, with an unmanned automatic driving system in operation.

Moreover, its angle of impact was extremely precise, just managing to hit Su Mo, but completely avoiding Qi Ling, as if controlled by an invisible hand with precise calculations.

The sudden attack threw the lobby into chaos, everyone was rushing towards Su Mo.

Qi Ling sat on the hovercar’s hood, hooking her arm around the window frame’s edge.

Then she took out her phone, tapped the screen a few times, and the hovercar roared to life, starting again.

Su Mo climbed up from the rubble, pushing the Edge Mercenaries beside him forward: "Chase!"

The hovercar didn’t stay for even a second longer, quickly reversing, and bursting through the wall’s opening from earlier, flying into the sky, unreachable by anyone.

Qi Ling sat atop the car hood, overlooking the rushing Su Mo, her face expressionless, she extended her finger to her bloodied lips, blowing Su Mo a chilling kiss.

The hovercar began to ascend, higher and higher, finally turning into a black dot in the sky, disappearing from sight.
