I’m a Down-and-Out Villain Being Pursued by the Female Lead Chapter 45

Sherisa felt that the atmosphere around her seemed to become somewhat wrong.

The originally noisy restaurant not far away suddenly seemed to have lost all sound, falling into deathly silence.

And more importantly, the sky outside was becoming increasingly strange.

The sky that was originally approaching nightfall had been stuck at sunset time.

The entire sky seemed to be shrouded in crimson, as if something was about to descend from above.

Now she had a lame leg and couldn’t move freely at all, only able to wait in place for news from Henry.

This feeling made her very uncomfortable.

None of this was in her plan.

“Tap tap tap.”

Suddenly, staggering footsteps came from outside the door, and groaning sounds rang out from beyond the door.

“Damn it, what the hell happened here. How come there isn’t a single soldier? And the deal, there were clearly people arranged here, how come they haven’t come looking yet?”

Sherisa recognized this as Pierre’s voice.

She hadn’t expected this guy to recover so quickly.

On the other side, Pierre held his head, pain still circling through his nerves.

It hurt so much, what exactly had hit his face directly?

If he found the source, he would definitely make the other party pay the price!

However, what Pierre was most angry about now was that his mission still wasn’t complete.

He had been unconscious for so long, yet no one had discovered the abnormality. Were these Empire soldiers just eating for free?

The angry Pierre casually pushed open the door of a room.

But when he saw the girl in the room, his expression froze for a moment.

As the main person in charge of this transportation, Pierre had seen Sherisa before!

But why would she appear here, that was the main problem!

This matter clearly wasn’t supposed to allow a second member of the Noel Family to interfere, and now Sherisa appearing here meant she had violated the Empire’s rules!

According to regulations, Sherisa should be handed over to him to deal with!

Thinking of this, a wicked smile appeared on Pierre’s face.

He stepped into the room, his voice also carrying mockery.

“Miss Sherisa, I didn’t expect you to appear here. I think you should be very clear about the contents of this transportation plan. What you’re doing is against the rules.”

Seeing Pierre’s gaze, Sherisa naturally knew what the other party was thinking.

But she smiled contemptuously, her eyes showing no intention of looking up to Pierre.

In her view, Pierre was indeed a dog, a dog that bullied others by flaunting his powerful connections.

“Pierre, it seems you haven’t been taught enough of a lesson. Look at the bump on your head, it’s as big as the buns my chef makes.”

Sherisa’s voice made Pierre’s expression change dramatically.

He hadn’t expected Sherisa to accurately describe his experience.

This also made him suspect that his repeated fainting was caused by Sherisa.

But when he looked at Sherisa’s swollen ankle and the soldier’s armor on the ground.

He immediately deduced that Sherisa must have disguised herself as a soldier to infiltrate the convoy.

This was absolutely not allowed in the Empire!

“Miss Sherisa, you disguised yourself as an Empire soldier! This counts as espionage in the Empire. I have reason to suspect that the Noel Family is cooperating with enemy countries and wants to harm the Empire.”

What a big hat to put on Sherisa’s head.

If it were an ordinary person, they would probably have been scared to death already.

But hearing Pierre’s words, Sherisa couldn’t help but laugh.

Her smile was like mockery toward Pierre, completely disdainful of his words.

“Pierre, is your brain broken? Do you think your words are useful now? You should first consider whether you can get out alive before saying anything else.”

Hearing these words, Pierre’s expression changed dramatically.

He drew the dagger from his waist and pointed it at Sherisa, his tone also becoming fierce!

“You dare to kill me? If His Majesty the King knew I died halfway, he would definitely make your Noel Family pay with their lives!”

“Just you, a small fry? Do you know how much tax we pay to the Empire each year? That money could buy your life until you go to hell.”

Sherisa’s words deeply pierced Pierre’s heart!

Don’t look at how this guy always acted high and mighty.

But Sherisa understood these people’s hearts the most.

They pretended to be arrogant, treating chicken feathers like imperial edicts, but their self-esteem was more fragile than anyone’s.

They needed to gain satisfaction and vanity by insulting people with higher power and position than themselves. Without doing this, they would only feel they had no value whatsoever.

The current Sherisa was just completely tearing off that surface layer!

“Even so, I can still humiliate you here! I want you to know that even if you’re high and mighty, in my eyes you’re nothing but a whore!”

Pierre’s expression was crazed, his entire fat face flushed red with urgency.

Instead, Sherisa’s face showed a pitiful appearance.

This made Pierre even more impulsive.

He strode toward Sherisa, still shouting from his mouth.

“Now you know fear? Too late! I’m going to make you watch with your own eyes…”

Before he could finish speaking, his shoulder was grabbed by someone.

The other person seemed to want to completely crush his bones, causing him to scream in pain!

And Sherisa pursed her lips, looking like she wanted to laugh but was pretending to be pitiful.

“Thud!”

Pierre suddenly rose up on his toes, his eyeballs nearly popping out of their sockets, looking like a young man standing at attention!

He covered his crotch, a severe pain coming from his lower body.

He could even feel that something inside him seemed to have shattered.

Pierre knelt on the ground, his head also pressed tightly against the floor, as if kowtowing to Sherisa.

Behind him, Henry’s figure had appeared at some unknown time.

“You made her see your balls get crushed, how pitiful, you might have to become a eunuch.”

Henry felt he hadn’t used much force at all, it must be that this pig Pierre ate all day without exercising, making his body completely deteriorated.

Not Henry’s fault!

Seeing Henry return, Sherisa hopped on one foot to Henry’s side.

Henry held her in his arms with both hands, his strong arms making it easy for him to do a princess carry.

Sherisa wrapped her arms around his shoulders, pouting her mouth, looking very unhappy.

“Before you came just now, he kept cursing at me, even calling me a whore.”

Henry glanced at the suffering Pierre, not knowing what to say for a moment.

“And also, he said you were a husband gone on a long journey, leaving only me, an alluring wife, in the house, wanting to put a big green hat on you.”

“I… I didn’t…”

Pierre used all his strength trying to explain.

He had no idea there were other people in this room, how could he possibly speak ill of the other person!

A woman’s mouth, a lying ghost!

Brother, don’t be deceived by her!

Pierre roared internally.

Henry looked at Sherisa with black lines all over his head.

Where exactly had this woman learned such culture? This kind of thing that was only suitable for people to watch was still too advanced for them.

Perhaps in the future when there was an opportunity, he could demonstrate it himself.

But he would need to be Sherisa’s leader first.

“Pierre, I believe you!”

Henry nodded toward the other party.

Just as Pierre was squeezing out a smile on his face, suddenly, his smile froze on his face.

Then he foamed at the mouth, rolled his eyes back, and fainted.

Henry retracted his foot, saying very calmly.

“But I also didn’t say I wouldn’t hit you.”
