Chapter 1408: Chapter 1408: Be Your Man

The person who had not descended from the carriage watched with interest as the five people sparred.

He could tell at a glance that Jian Dan had no intention of making a move against the four of them; she was merely looking to deplete their strength.

"Stop~" He opened the car door and slowly descended from the vehicle.

Upon hearing the voice from the car, the four stopped their assault on Jian Dan.

"Looks like you’re their boss!" Jian Dan said with a smile as she looked at the newcomer.

"Boss!" The four’s address confirmed Jian Dan’s speculation.

"You four, step back. You’re not her match at all. Just now, she was merely toying with you. If she had wanted to kill you, a few of you would already be nearing your end."

"A woman?"

"What about it?"

"Nothing!"

For a woman to become the boss of four grown men, her strength must be nothing short of formidable.

However, this woman had wrapped her face in cotton gauze, making it impossible to discern her features clearly.

But from her voice, she seemed to be of a certain age.

"So, shall we have a go?"

"Sure! Just what I need to get a good workout!"

As soon as Jian Dan finished speaking, the woman made her move, acting with incredible speed. Jian Dan, caught off guard, had her clothes ripped by the woman.

"Damn, that’s impressive!"

While Jian Dan was talking, the opponent struck again, but this time Jian Dan managed to dodge.

"Now I see why your underlings are so rude. It seems they’ve learned from you; not even a greeting before throwing a punch."

"Don’t you know that surprise is key to catching one off guard?"

Because the opponent was just too fast, Jian Dan had no time to continue talking.

After a few exchanges, Jian Dan was already starting to struggle.

How is this merely impressive? She’s a martial arts expert! Be it her agility or her reflexes, both are top-notch.

"Stop~" Jian Dan raised her hand.

"What? Can’t handle just a few moves?"

"It’s not that I can’t handle it; I’m just a bit tired, I need a break. I’ve already expended a lot of energy fighting your underlings, and you haven’t, which makes this unfair!"

"Fairness? You talk about fairness with a thief?"

"So what? Thieves have their own code, don’t they? And with skills like yours, you must have your own pride!"

"The lass sure has a sharp tongue. Alright! Take a break then!"

Taking the opportunity, Jian Dan snatched the scarf from the woman’s head, revealing the woman’s face to her eyes.

Jian Dan was shocked by the face before her.

It wasn’t because the face was breathtakingly beautiful, but quite the opposite—it was a somewhat terrifying face.

There was a long scar across the face, stretching from the eye to the cheek.

But judging from her features, it must have once been a very beautiful face.

"I’m sorry!" Realizing she had been impolite, Jian Dan quickly apologized to the other party and handed back the scarf. "I’m really sorry!"

The woman snatched the scarf back from Jian Dan’s hand and covered her face again. "Seems like you can’t leave today."

"No! I didn’t mean to do it, and I apologized."

"No one who has seen my face has ever lived!"

"Then what about those four?"

"Those four are my people!"

"Then I’ll just become one of your people, and that’ll settle it."

(Jian Dan, did you ask Chu Liyuan when you said that?)
