Fatty asked me how we should deal with the two ninjas.
I hesitated for a moment, then said, "Let them go."
Purple Clad was somewhat unwilling. "Just let them go like that? They were trying to kill you just now."
I shook my head. "Didn't I come out of it fine? Besides, we can't really kill the two of them, can we?"
He Li said from the side, "It's not impossible. Since they wanted to kill you, they should have been prepared to be killed in return. If you're worried about disposing of the bodies, leave that to me."
One of the ninjas panicked when he heard that. "Mr. Jiang, you can't kill us. If you kill us, Abe Ichinan won't survive either."
Purple Clad sneered. "He has absolutely nothing to do with Abe Ichinan. What does her life or death have to do with us?"
The ninja said, "Miss, you can't put it that way. Great Xia has an old saying: I did not kill Boren, yet Boren died because of me. If anything really happens to Miss Abe, then although Mr. Jiang would not have killed her himself, she would still have died because of him. I imagine Mr. Jiang wouldn't be able to get over that in his heart, would he?"
His words stunned me. Thinking about it carefully, he was right.
"You've really taken a liking to her?" Purple Clad sounded dissatisfied.
I said nothing. Xu Qiuyan merely watched quietly, a faint smile on her face.
Purple Clad said, "You already have someone you love. You can't betray Sister Xu. Even if you're not satisfied and want to find a mistress, aren't I right here? What do I lack compared to that Island Nation woman?"
Her words sounded familiar. Fatty had said the same thing before.
