You Hurt My Man

Luo Fenhao lay unconscious on the ground after Jiang Qing’s swift knife strike.

"Wake him up with water," Jiang Qing ordered, noticing that Su Hua would be arriving soon.

"Yes, ma’am."

A subordinate poured a basin of ice-cold water over Luo Fenhao’s head.

"Who—who dares do this? Have you lost your minds?" Luo Fenhao snarled through gritted teeth as he regained consciousness.

The moment he opened his eyes, he saw Jiang Qing standing before him, her face concealed behind a mask.

Luo Fenhao: "!!!"

How could he have forgotten?

He’d been captured.

His gaze swept across the dimly lit basement room where he was being held.

No doubt about it—this was their territory.

And here he was, foolishly cursing in enemy territory. He might as well have signed his own death warrant.

Luo Fenhao frowned. "Who the hell are you people?"

Jiang Qing chuckled. "No need to rush. Our leader will be here soon. Then you’ll find out exactly who we are."

She stepped aside, leaving Luo Fenhao to stew in his confusion.

The Golden Dragon Gang had just signed an agreement with them. He was supposed to provide them with money and weapons—none of which had been delivered yet. There was no way the Golden Dragon Gang would turn on them now.

As for the Night Roses, their gang had never crossed paths with them. The Night Roses looked down on small-time gangs like his—why would they suddenly target them?

Could there be another major faction lurking in the shadows of the Black Triangle?

Click-clack. Click-clack.

The sharp sound of high heels echoed through the basement.

"Our leader is here," Jiang Qing announced with a smirk.

Su Hua stepped into the room.

Luo Fenhao’s eyes nearly bulged out of their sockets.

Wasn’t this… the Dark Rose?

He’d caught a glimpse of her once before. A woman of her status wasn’t someone you easily forgot.

Her figure, the mask she wore, even the curve of her lips and chin—everything matched the woman standing before him.

No wonder his gang had been crushed so effortlessly.

So it was the Night Roses who had come after them!

But why?

His Black Right Gang had never done anything to provoke the Dark Rose.

"You… you’re the Dark Rose?" Luo Fenhao ventured cautiously.

Su Hua took a seat, crossing her arms. "That’s right. I am the Dark Rose."

His heart sank.

If the Dark Rose herself had come to see him in this basement, his fate tonight would be anything but pleasant.

"Dark Rose," Luo Fenhao stammered, "may I ask why you’ve brought me here?"

Su Hua’s eyes narrowed.

"Leader Luo, you’ve got quite the nerve—daring to lay a hand on my man."

Luo Fenhao was stunned.

"Your man? Who—who is your man?"

Over the past week, his gang had only clashed with the Golden Dragon Gang.

There was no way their leader could be the Dark Rose’s man. Besides, Lin Xuan had been the one beating him senseless—how could Luo Fenhao have possibly hurt him?

And before that, the men he’d dealt with were all pathetic losers, not the kind the Dark Rose would ever glance at twice.

"My man," Su Hua said, her red lips curling, "is the leader of the Golden Dragon Gang."

What?! Luo Fenhao’s pupils shrank in shock.

Lin Xuan was the Dark Rose’s man?!

Su Hua continued, "These past few days, he came to the Night Roses personally to discuss a partnership. I took a liking to him. Even if he hasn’t agreed to be with me yet, I’ve already claimed him."

"Leader Luo, you hurt him. Tell me—should I let that slide?"

Luo Fenhao protested desperately. "Dark Rose, it’s a misunderstanding! Leader Lin is incredibly skilled—both in combat and strategy!"

Hearing such praise for Lin Xuan from an outsider, Su Hua couldn’t suppress a faint smile.

Jiang Qing caught the glimmer of pride in Su Hua’s eyes and the slight curve of her lips. She shook her head inwardly.

Look at her—practically glowing just hearing someone else compliment him.

Tsk. Women in love.

The other Night Roses members exchanged stunned glances.

Oh no.

This was the exact same expression their leader wore whenever she talked about her boyfriend.

And now, just the mention of the Golden Dragon Gang’s leader had her looking just as smitten—proud, doting, utterly infatuated.

Not to mention, she’d been secretly sending people to monitor Lin Xuan’s movements.

The Dark Rose had truly fallen for him.

"Look at me!" Luo Fenhao gestured at his battered body. "These injuries were all from Leader Lin’s fists. I was the one getting beaten to a pulp—how could I have hurt him?"

He was certain he hadn’t laid a finger on Lin Xuan.

His entire gang, himself included, had been utterly helpless against the man.

"If you didn’t hurt him," Su Hua’s voice turned icy, "then how did he end up with a knife wound on his hand?"

At her words, Luo Fenhao finally remembered.

He scrambled to explain. "Dark Rose, that wound was from me, but—"

He could feel the temperature in the room plummet as Su Hua’s aura turned murderous.

"—I forgot I had a knife hidden in my clothes! The cut happened when he was hitting me, and my blade accidentally grazed him!"

Jiang Qing blinked.

Well, that was… unexpected.

Almost comically so.

"But I swear, Dark Rose, it wasn’t serious! If you don’t believe me, check the wound yourself—you’ll see it’s just a scratch!"

Luo Fenhao exhaled in relief.

If it wasn’t his fault, surely the Dark Rose would let him go now.

"Dark Rose, so… can I leave?" he asked hesitantly.

"Leave?" Su Hua’s lips curved into a chilling smile. "You hurt my man, and you think you can just walk away?"

"But I already explained—it was an accident!" Luo Fenhao’s voice rose in panic.

Su Hua scoffed. "I don’t care if it was an accident or not. The fact remains—my man was hurt because of you."

"And anyone who harms what’s mine will pay the price."

Luo Fenhao’s blood ran cold.

I’m done for.

The Dark Rose was dead set on making an example out of him.

So the rumors were true—the infamous Dark Rose was not only obsessed with a man but downright delusional about him.

"How long has it been since the wolves in the back mountain were fed?" Su Hua asked coolly.

The Night Roses kept several wolves penned in the mountains, and their diet consisted primarily of human flesh.

"Leader," one of the members answered, "it’s been three days."

Su Hua smirked. "Then make sure he suffers before tossing him to the wolves."

Normally, she’d take pleasure in torturing him herself, but she had more important matters—like spending time with her beloved Lin Xuan.

She wasn’t about to waste another second on this trash.

Luo Fenhao shuddered at the mention of the wolves.
