Chapter 35 Scarlet Xia
Chapter 35 Scarlet Xia
After two days in bed, I was almost ready to walk.
I asked Amanda to help me to see Ben. He had now been able to open his eyes and speak, but he was
still in poor health. He needed to take a rest after saying a few words.
On the third day, a very special woman came to our villa.
This woman didn't look like a domestic woman. Her features were relatively deep and her skin was not
as fair as that of domestic women. She looked a bit like a Southeast Asian, and she was thin. But I
could not forget her at my first sight.
Her eyes were neither charming nor sharp, but indifferent, like a robot, as if devoid of human feeling.
As soon as she got close to me, I felt my hair stand on end as if the leopard was stalking me.
The friends of Ben seemed to be afraid of this woman. They did not pay attention after seeing her,
stood up and greeted, “Scarlet.”
That woman slightly nodded, and then she looked at me, said to me with a blunt national language,
“Excuse me, are you a friend of Ben, Justin?"
I was immediately a little flattered. How would a foreign girl know my name?
I repressed my inner excitement and held out a hand and said with a smile, "Hello, my name is Justin.
Ben is my good friend."
That woman ignored me and continued to say, “My name is Scarlet, a friend of Ben. I come to protect
you."
She was cool and came straight to the point. She was confident that she could protect the wounded in
our room. I couldn't help but be interested in this woman.
I withdrew my hand in embarrassment, said with a smile, “Thank you. Well, do you have a meal? Do
you need me to ask for a takeaway?"
"No, I had a meal already. Where is Ben now? I want to see him." Scarlet said calmly.
"I'll take you there. He'll be glad to see you." I tried to deal with this woman in my businesslike way and
made sure I make a good impression on her.
I didn't want to hit on her. It was just a professional habit.
However, the woman only nodded, which made me feel a little frustrated.
I took her to Ben’s room. The woman looked at the injury of Ben, turned to me and said, “Can I be
alone with Ben for a while?" Original from NôvelDrama.Org.
I knew it was an obvious departure. With an embarrassing smile, I turned and walked out, and the door
tightly locked.
I did not go far to but stood at the door in case of any accident. Although the friends of Ben all knew
her, but I did not rule out the possibility that she would secretly hurt Ben. In case of Ben calling for help,
I could rush in to save him.
The house was quiet, without any noise. I lied prone to the door gap to look inside. Ben had woken up
half leaning on the bed, the woman sat opposite Ben, talking with him.
I breathed a sigh of relief. It seemed that I had been overthinking.
I shook my head and went to the sitting room. I was guessing the relationship between Scarlet and
Ben. Could they be couples? Good for Ben that he could have a foreigner as his girlfriend.
Well, I wonder what it would be like when they had sex. Would they make love after talking for a while?
Thinking of that, I could not help but creepy smiled.
Then a man of Ben handed me a cigarette and said, “Justin, take a smoke."
I took over the smoke out of guilty. These people did not blink when they killed people, now they took
the initiative to give me smoke, how could I not be guilty?
I put the cigarette to my mouth, fumbling for the lighter. At this time the man came over and lit the
cigarette to me. I was a little surprised. What was going on?
The man took a cigarette, inhaled pleasantly, slowly exhaled a cigarette ring. After noticing that I was
looking at him, he turned his head and showed me a smile.
My hand shook, almost dropped the smoke to the ground. Damn, he had a wired smile. With a long
scar on his face and green eyes, he was like a devil. I had read a book that the if a person killed too
many people, his eye would turn green for there was toxins in the body. And I was not sure whether
this man was one of them.
My body can't help but and slightly kept distance from him, smiling.
That man smoked a mouthful and suddenly said to me, “Justin, thank you for saving Ben and us.
Although you are a friend of Ben, but we did not pay attention to you."
"But you did a good job the night before yesterday!" The man gave me a thumb, took a smoke and
continued to say, “We are uneducated. In addition to fighting, we know nothing but are thankful. You
saved everyone, and we will work for you. It's so simple!"
I did not understand. What did he mean to work for me in future. I was not going to set up a gang,
besides, wasn't there Ben?
I was a little confused and asked, "Brother, the night before yesterday I was the one who brought
trouble to you. It was I who should thank you. I am so ashamed. Take care of yourself. When Ben
recovered, I will treat you a meal another day."
The man twitched the corners of his mouth, as if smiling, and turned away.
At this time, the Scarlet came out from Ben’s room, and said to me in flat tone, “Justin, Ben want to see
you."
"Ok, ok." I got up from the sofa and went to Ben’s room.
Ben looked very good today, and his face had been a little rosy.
I sat beside him, asked in concern, “Ben, how are you? Are you still in pain?"
Ben bared his teeth with a smile and said, “It's all right, I'm a hard man. The hell did not accept me, so I
came back to life."
I nodded, “That's good, that's good."
Ben was staring at me without saying a word. I felt different and asked him, “Ben, what is wrong? Are
you feeling pain?"
Ben shook his head, and softly said, “Justin, there is something to discuss with you."
I immediately put right look, and said seriously, “We are friends, just say it."
"Justin, I have seven friends who have followed me all the way, and I want to entrust them to you." Ben
said lightly.
