The Pure-Hearted Princess and the Kiss of Darkness

Super Landlord: Rise from the Shadows - 1: The Scoundrel Brother!

Phew~

Little Flores let out a long breath, deciding to visit home before seeing her again...

Finally, he was back in the small county that had given him life and nurtured him.

Feeling his cheek, Little Flores smiled faintly; eight years in the military had transformed him significantly.

Little Flores had few relatives left; his parents had passed away when he was young, and his relatives avoided him like the plague. Among his remaining family, only his sister-in-law, Shirley Chen, was someone he still cared about. As for his brother...

Shaking his head, he dispelled all thoughts of his brother and stepped into Mason Street with a smile.

Both sides of Mason Street were lined with three-story buildings that looked quite old; each small building was a separate compound with its own gate, and their home was no exception. The two fruit trees that stretched over the wall were still as lush as when he had left.

Clank, clank, Little Flores knocked on the door nervously.

Inside, Shirley Chen, holding a stick and looking tense, opened the door to see a face she had been longing for.

"L...Little Fish?"

Shirley Chen wondered if she was so stressed these days that she was hallucinating.

Little Flores didnt even notice the stick in Shirleys hand; his gaze was entirely captivated by her haggard face, and his expression and eyes unconsciously became complicated.

"Sister-in-law, its me, Little Fish."

As he spoke, the stick in Shirleys hand fell to the ground, and she threw herself into Little Floress arms, tears streaming down her cheeks like broken strings.

"Little Fish, youre finally back, youre finally back."

Shirley Chen spoke with uncontrollable joy, her hands tightly hugging Little Floress waist as if she was afraid he would suddenly disappear.

Little Flores hesitated slightly with his arms but ultimately embraced her.

"Mom, are those bad people here again?"

Hearing the clear voice, Little Flores looked up at the door of the house in the courtyard, where a lovely girl with two braids was cautiously peeking out her little head.

He suddenly remembered that when he left, his sister-in-law was already pregnant...

And hearing the little girls voice, Shirley Chen shuddered, quickly disengaging from Little Floress arms, her cheeks flushed, and her gaze quite unnatural.

She clearly understood that her actions were too intimate; they were no longer what they used to be. She was now Little Floress sister-in-law.

Little Flores noticed the deeper meaning in the little girls words and looked at Shirley Chen with a serious expression.

"Sister-in-law, whats happened at home?"

Shirley Chens eyes turned red, and the tears she had just stopped fell again.

"Your brother, your brother gambled again and drinks every day. Now he owes money and has run away... Those people are forcing debts on our doorstep every day. We cant live here anymore..."

The more Shirley Chen spoke, the more heartbroken she became, eventually covering her eyes and squatting on the ground, her shoulders shaking uncontrollably.

Little Flores felt a pang in his heart and clenched his fists in anger, that damn brother!

Looking at Shirley Chen, who was crying silently on the ground, Little Flores was filled with regret!

His brother was a gambling addict and a drunkard. It was because his brother had lost gambling and hit someone that Little Flores chose to join the army. With an army career, there would be a family subsidy of 80,000 dollars, which could relieve his brothers urgent need. Otherwise, his brother would be locked up.

The little girl at the door timidly walked to Shirley Chens side, glancing at Little Flores with fear before holding Shirley Chen and softly saying, "Mom, dont cry. Ruth is here."

Ruth... Little Fish...

Little Floress heart trembled, and he said to the little girl, "Ruth, is your name Ruth Flores?"

Ruth fearfully hid behind Shirley Chen, still looking at Little Flores apprehensively, biting her lip as if unsure whether to speak or not.

Shirley Chen looked up, wiped her tears, and then picked up the little girl.

"Yes, her name is Ruth Flores."

After saying this to Little Flores, Shirley Chen gently said to Ruth, "Ruth, this is your uncle. Say hello to uncle."

"Hello, uncle."

Listening to the clear voice and looking at Ruth Flores clinging to Shirley Chens neck with fear, Little Flores felt heartbroken.

What kind of growth experience could make a child so afraid of strangers?

He forced a smile and said, "Hello, Ruth."

At this moment, a noisy sound came from outside the alley. Even from a distance, the uproar had already reached them.

"Shirley, is the money ready yet?"

Hearing the voice, Shirley Chens body shuddered, and her expression suddenly became panicked. Ruth Floress eyes turned red, and she was on the verge of tears from fear.

All these scenes fell into Little Floress eyes, and his heart felt as if it was being pricked by a needle.

He picked up a stick and walked out of the yard. Looking outside, he saw seven or eight thuggish young men with various colored hair walking towards them. He raised the stick and pointed at the young men outside!

"Every debt has its debtor; Tiger Flores owes you money, so go find him directly!"

Little Flores suddenly appeared and startled the seven or eight young men outside.

After hearing his words, the young men were taken aback, looked at each other, and the one with yellow hair, who seemed to be the leader, said, "Who are you?"

Little Flores put down the stick and said, "Little Flores."

The yellow-haired young man smiled, looked up and down at Little Flores, and then spat out the cigarette butt in his mouth.

"You are Tiger Floress brother. We were just worried about not being able to find you."

Little Flores was puzzled; they were looking for him?

"Your brother owes us a total of 1.3 million. You figure out what to do about this money."

So, they came to collect the debt. Little Flores sneered coldly, looked at the stick in his hand, and then swung it directly.

"1.3 million, right? Here, Ill give it to you!"

As he spoke, the stick in his hand had already hit the yellow-haired young mans shoulder solidly.

"Ah!"

The yellow-haired young man screamed and knelt on the ground directly.

Little Flores had been in the army for eight years and would not have been discharged if there hadnt been a special situation. In the military region, he was a real soldier king, a super soldier king!

This stick was swung with anger, and the yellow-haired young mans shoulder bone was directly cracked by him!

After one stick, Little Flores did not stop at all, and the stick in his hand continued to hit the surrounding young men.

Every time the stick hit, there was an accompanying scream.

When all seven or eight young men were lying on the ground, Little Flores snorted coldly and threw away the stick in his hand.

"You want money, go find Tiger Flores, and dont disturb us. Otherwise, Ill beat you every time I see you!"

Staring at these gangsters, Little Floress eyes shot out a terrifying cold light!

The yellow-haired young man, who was lying on the ground, stood up with a wince due to the pain, and his facial features were twisted together because of the pain.

"Damn it, you wait for us, our boss will deal with you!"

Little Floress eyes flashed, remembering the person his brother often borrowed money from at high interest rates. If this time it was also that person...
