Rebirth of an Idle Noblewoman (1-200)

Chapter 62: Nine Palaces and Eight Trigrams Array

Not soon after, the brutes pushed open the door and came into the room, and along with them a dim, yellow light.

“Go, wake those two up! It would be too boring two play with them while they’re asleep!” The one that was right at the forefront was a man with bulging muscles and tattoos that was holding a camera in his hands, and as he looked at the two girls on the floor, his gaze became more and more lustful.

Xiao Yun opened her eyes slowly, her eyes getting used to the dim light before squeaking in shock upon seeing the scene in front of her. Then, she slowly crawled in front of Gu Xiqiao protectively, glaring at the men as threateningly as she could, but her shivering body betrayed her fear.

The lens of the camera was pointed at the two girls, and Gu Xiqiao slowly opened her eyes too, glancing around and seeing a piece of rotten wood next to them.

“Boss, let me do it! I’ll shoot the video!” One of the men walked in from outside and snatched the camera over, pointing it at the two girls. As he looked at the two figures through the camera, his breathing started to become erratic.

“I-I know I’m your objective, but she doesn’t have anything to do with this, so let her go… Please.” Xiao Yun figured out what was happening and tried to calm herself down as much as she could. Gu Xiqiao was in their hands now too, so she couldn’t enrage them! “If you need money, I can get someone to send it to you right now, and we won’t even press any further charges against you, promise!”

These people all looked quite fierce and all had tattoos, and Xiao Yun immediately started suspecting that uncle of hers that was always up to no good.

To destroy a girl in such a way was already worse than scum!

The bald man scoffed, before reaching over and grabbing her chin roughly with calloused fingers, before his fierce gaze swept over to Gu Xiqiao, looking up at down at her legs that were like a piece of art.

“We don’t need money,” He said, before pushing her away and making his way over to Gu Xiqiao slowly, looking at her clear eyes in enthrallment and reaching over, as if he wanted to touch her.

At that exact moment, Gu Xiqiao suddenly moved. She grabbed the piece of wood and swung it as hard as she could towards a weak spot she had aimed at beforehand!

There were seven burly men in total in the room, and they all didn’t seem like nice people, and the bald man in front of her seemed to be particularly strong.

Gu Xiqiao had already weighed the odds of her winning against them, and while she was in the first level of ancient martial arts, things had already gone beyond her expectations—These weren’t regular thugs that she could defeat while taking care of Xiao Yun at all!

Now that Xiao Yun was here, she needed to buy her time to escape before she could deal with them!

As the thugs were stunned in shock, the two of them ran outside as quickly as they could, and Gu Xiqiao handed Xiao Yun the keys to the van that was parked outside that she had snatched away and led Xiao Yun towards the car, but the latter wasn’t willing to leave. “Let’s leave together!”

“Xiao Yun, listen, this is an attack aimed at me, alright? I can deal with this!” Seeing that Xiao Yun wasn’t relenting, she grit her teeth and continued without really meaning it, “Don’t you see? You’re being a burden!”

Xiao Yun closed her eyes and sighed, knowing that it was a truth that she would drag the other down.

“It’s Gu Xijin, right?”

She gritted her teeth and cursed under her breath, already regretting why she didn’t off Gu Xijin back when they had the chance, and more importantly, she hated how she was powerless to help!
