Chapter 525: I Am Not So Desperate
Hearing Su Wan’s anxious voice behind him, Uncle Wang stopped and slowly turned around.
“What’s wrong? Is there anything else?”
The man with the jade demon eyes’ expression changed again and again. His hands were sweating slightly, and his brain was working rapidly.
If this ungrateful woman dared to expose him, he would be the first to let her die with him.
Just as the man’s breathing slowed down, Su Wan finally spoke.
“Uncle Wang, can you give me an advance of a month’s salary? I want to buy an energy box for my robot.”
Su Wan looked at Uncle Wang cautiously. There was a hint of hope in her clear almond-shaped eyes.
Uncle Wang was stunned. Obviously, he did not expect Su Wan to stop him because of this.
Uncle Wang glanced at the worn-out robot beside Su Wan and frowned slightly.
“It’s such an old home robot. You might as well save more money and buy another one.”
It was not Uncle Wang’s fault for misinterpreting Nono’s function. The cheapest home robot on the market was a home robot. Judging from Su Wan’s appearance, she did not seem to be able to afford a higher grade one.
Su Wan’s gaze shifted to Nono beside her, and she spoke with some attachment.
“Uncle Wang, to me, Nono is my family. I will not abandon it.”
When Su Wan’s sincere voice fell into its ears, Nono was very touched. She opened her mouth and stretched out her chubby silver arm, hugging Su Wan’s leg.
“Master, Nono likes you…”
Hearing Nono’s cute voice, Su Wan smiled. She let Nono hug her and reached out to stroke Nono’s Head.
Su Wan and Nono stood together and looked extremely harmonious. It was as if no one could enter their world.
When Uncle Wang saw this scene, it was the first time he saw someone so intimate with a robot.
He coughed lightly and said, “I don’t care about the salary. But if you are really in trouble, I’ll give you half a month’s salary in advance.”
Su Wan was overjoyed when she heard that and immediately bowed slightly to Uncle Wang.
“Thank you, Uncle Wang. I’ll definitely work hard.”
Uncle Wang nodded at Su Wan. After this conversation, he no longer had a last bit of wariness toward Su Wan. He smiled at Su Wan and left with the two fierce-looking guards.
…
Su Wan watched them leave before she let out a sigh of relief.
She was actually not as calm as she appeared to be. Just now, it was as if she was walking on the tip of a knife. If she was not careful, she would lose the whole game.
Su Wan’s back was covered in sweat. She was afraid that Uncle Wang would notice something was wrong and pull out the man with the jade demon eyes. Then, she would be in trouble.
Su Wan glanced at the “VIP” under the bed with a hint of mockery in her voice.
“Alright, he’s gone. You can come out now.”
The man with the jade demon eyes slowly moved out from under the bed. His handsome and extraordinary face was already covered in dust. He looked extremely pathetic.
Thinking of the horrifying experience that night, Su Wan felt a lot better when she saw his dusty face.
It would be great if there was a poisonous spider or something like that. It would bite him to death.
Of course, Su Wan only thought about it. If that thing really appeared, she would not be able to live in peace either.
The man with the jade demon eyes stared at Su Wan for a second. When he saw that she could not hide the smile on her lips, his green eyes became deeper and deeper.
It was really strange. This woman was clearly poisoned by him and her life was still in his hands. Why was she smiling so thoughtlessly?
“Give me a basin of warm water.”
The man with the jade demon eyes reached out and patted the dust on his face and body. Then he looked at Su Wan arrogantly and directly ordered her in a commanding tone.
Hearing this man’s words, Su Wan was extremely unhappy. His arrogant attitude seemed to treat her as a servant.
It was a pity that there was a pill in her body that sought her death. Otherwise, Su Wan would not be so easily manipulated by him.
Su Wan swallowed her anger and ran out of the door. She took a basin of boiling hot water from the tap next door. She was eager to make him lose a layer of skin.
However, halfway through filling the basin, Su Wan silently closed the valve of the hot water again.
Forget it. Now she had a favor to ask of someone. If she were to be angry with him, it would be her own death.
It was better for her to pretend to be obedient. Perhaps that lunatic would be happy and give her the antidote.
Su Wan pouted helplessly and reached out to open the cold water valve.
After mixing the cold water and hot water in the basin, Su Wan reached out to check the temperature of the water. After making sure that the temperature was suitable, she carried the basin filled with water in.
Su Wan placed the basin on the table and pouted at the man with jade demon eyes.
“Here, I’ve brought what you wanted.”
However, to Su Wan’s surprise, the man waved at her and started unbuttoning his shirt!
“Come here.”
Su Wan thought that the man was just washing his face. Why did he suddenly unbutton his shirt?!
Alarms rang in Su Wan’s heart. She took a step back and looked at the man warily.
“What are you doing?”
Seeing Su Wan’s vigilant look, it was obvious that she had misunderstood something. The man with the jade demon eyes sneered and glanced at Su Wan disdainfully, looking at her from head to toe.
“Don’t worry. No matter how low I am, I am not so desperate.”
Su Wan’s expression turned cold. She suddenly remembered that her makeup had not been removed, and she slowly let out a sigh of relief in her heart.
That was true. Judging from this man’s appearance and clothes, it was unlikely that he would take a fancy to a little girl who was as black as charcoal.
The Man with jade demon eyes slowly took off his coat, revealing his firm muscles.
When he turned around, Su Wan was suddenly shocked by this man’s back.
The man’s back was dripping with blood, but his coat just so happened to be dark black. In addition, the lights in the room were not bright enough, so it did not look obvious.
On the right side of the man’s back, there was a deep bullet hole!
Su Wan’s pupils suddenly widened. She stared at the man’s back in disbelief, her heart filled with doubt.
Could this guy have been shot?!
But how could a normal person hold on for so long after being shot?!
What kind of monster was he?!
The man saw Su Wan standing there in a daze. He had seen that this woman had some courage before, but now she was so stunned.
He impatiently waved his hand, and then took out the small knife hidden in his sleeve.
“Come here, help me dig out the bullet.”
Su Wan gulped, and a deep shock flashed through her mind.
This man had really been shot, but he was still alive. Was this guy even human?!
Su Wan forced herself to suppress the fear in her heart. She looked at the man’s bloody back and picked up the silver dagger in fear.
“Are you sure you want me to dig out the bullet directly? Aren’t you afraid of infection?”
Su Wan wanted to say “tetanus,” but she really didn’t know how to say this word in the interstellar language.
