I Was Born In The Underworld - Chapter 7

Translator: NovelMultiverse | Editor: NovelMultiverse

“My first time…”

Is my first time about to be taken away by the man in front of me, in such a brutal way?

The thought lingered in Lin Yuxin’s mind, and her body was already trembling in fear. 

With a proper and elite family background, she has always kept her reputation clean and respected. She is outstanding in both archery and academic performance and had not once batted an eyelash at the boys who chased behind her like files. Therefore, to this day, she still preserves her innocence and purity. 

Lin Yuxin felt a stab of despair and deeply rooted helplessness, but at this moment, GuFan frowned at her and shrugged, with a speck of innocence in his cold and calculating eyes.

“People often say women fantasize about being raped, and you seem to be no exception.”

“But unfortunately, I am not interested in you at the moment. My only purpose here today, is to take a suited bow.”

GuFan stated his purpose flatly. This shocked Lin Yuxin, as her face starts reddening madly, with flushes climbing to her ear roots.  

A bow???

GuFan is here, for a bow???

This man had the guts to break in here, just to get a bow and arrow out of her???

Isn’t this a bit too ridiculous, breaking into her house just for a bow? It felt like he took his pants off, and she was fearing for the worse, but he simply farted in her face. What a load of nonsense! 

“So that is all you’ve come for?”

“For a bow, you invaded my house, and almost made me think I’m writing my will today! I thought I was doomed! I thought you were going to kill me!” Lin Yuxin felt her face heating with anger, but she doesn’t care — she honestly thought she would be scared to death moments ago!

Lin Yuxin has even made the worst-case scenario plan…

She wondered what to do if GuFan wanted to assault her, or if he was really like the murderous maniac in movies, that would brutally kill her purely for his entertainment. What should she do then? 

GuFan on the other hand, just shrugged at her rant, with a slight playfulness to his tone: “Under normal circumstances, you wouldn’t even look at me, let alone showing your precious collections. After all, the owing of suitable crossbows in China also requires a license.”

“And…Wasn’t I just a plain loser in your eyes? Didn’t think I have the honour to talk to you, am I right?” 

Lin Yuxin’s body stiffened at his casual tone. He was right. If GuFan was still the boring loser he used to, there was no way Lin Yuxin would bat an eyelash at him, let alone risk breaking the law and gift him her precious crossbow collections.

“Just so you know, these bows and arrows are limited edition only, and constructed by special foreign designers, every single one is precious! One and the only!” 

Lin Yuxin swallowed, and asked tentatively: “You only want the bow, right? What are you using it for?” 

GuFan, upon seeing her careful expression, smirked: “Of course I just want a bow…For now. But if you want me to force you into something…I’m more than happy to provide the service.”

“Hurry up and get your collection. If you try to complicate things along the way, then you know the results, right?”

Lin Yuxin’s expression was complicated, but in the end, she was defeated. She sighed, took out her special keys, and walked to the room where she kept her bow and arrow collections.

…

…

After 20 minutes.

A dozen bows and arrows of different styles were neatly placed in front of GuFan, and it was an impressive sight — Lin Yuxin definitely has quite the collection.

There are recurve bows for shoot championships, compound bows with high precision settings, and some retro vintage bows that are purely for collection only. 

During this entire encounter of showing the bows, GuFan was always beside Lin Yuxin, watching her every step carefully. Even though underneath his body, GuFan seems to possess similar powers compared to ordinary people, but his cunning and exquisite fight skills, coupled with his fierce and calculating approach during a showdown, has stripped Lin Yuxin of all her courage. His aura is similar to those top-ranked killers in movies, and Lin Yuxin knew she had no chance of survival against this man. 

Fortunately, GuFan, the demon who broke into her house, had no interest in hurting her. 

He really was just here for a bow and arrow, what a true relief!

“This recurve bow was designed by a foreign friend of mine, and its accuracy setting is much higher and targeted, compared to other bows used in general competitions….”

Lin Yuxin saw GuFan’s continuous attempt at a recurve bow, and was even going to the length of testing it repeatedly by stretching the strings. Clearly, he has a good understanding of these bows, and is also an expert; she couldn’t help but starts explaining her precious, with a hint of pride in her tone.[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]

“This hunting bow is relatively retro too, and the material it’s made of is also very special. However, the requirements for its suitable user are also relatively high.” 

Lin Yuxin couldn’t help but starts pitching in her suggestions to GuFan and showed him the bow she was mentioning. It is a powerful ancient longbow, which requires users to have a strong arm.

GuFan was interested as he took up the bow, but after testing it, he quickly gave it up. The reason is simple, his body was still too week. Although this longbow is powerful, he does not have enough strength to pull the bowstring for now.

In the end, GuFan chose a compound bow, which is specially designed for hunting. The bow is made of a rare light metal, which is smooth and sturdy, and handy to carry around. Most importantly, the bow is specially designed for hunting in the wild. 

The load-reducing gears on both sides of the bow also greatly reduce the power required by the user and judging by the gears, this bow is fully capable of a powerful kill. This is perfect for GuFan’s present body, as it wouldn’t require much strength for a deadly blow.

“I want this one. Also, I need some more arrows, including metal arrows with strong penetrating powder, and modified blades.” GuFan spoke with a calming professional tone, which surprised Lin Yuxin once again. 

Why does he need so much deadly equipment? Is he planning to go hunting in the wild?

Or…Is he truly a malicious killer, planning his next step of murdering his enemies?!

Lin Yuxin did not raise the questions, as she knew she did not have any room to negotiate or reject his orders. All she could do is once again bring out hundreds of arrows from her private collection, as well as a large number of remodeled metal arrows.

Looking at large bundles of her belongings being collected by GuFan, Lin Yuxin felt a sharp sting in her heart and said to him with a hint of bitterness: “You really have quite the eye, this compound bow is perhaps the most precious in my collection. It cost me US$100,000 to buy it, and those modified metal arrows and arrows are also worth hundreds of dollars each.”

In this way, the lump sum of compound bow and arrows that GuFan took has reached nearly one million Chinese yen, which, indeed, can be considered a felony. 

GuFan packed up all the equipment, put it in the bag, zipped up the zipper, and is ready to leave.

“I’m sorry for such a late-night visit.”

“I’m very satisfied with your kind gifts. For the sake of old classmates and these equipment, I will tell you a secret, a secret that worth millions, tens of millions, a secret that cannot be measured by money.”

GuFan walked to the door and turned around. Hesitating, but he finally told what he knew. 

Perhaps, this would be enough to return Lin Yuxin’s favor?

GuFan didn’t want to take her things in vain. Although his personality is ruthless and calculating, he was not a thief. 

GuFan continued his secret: “Buy supplies, store them at home. It is best to buy supplies that can be stored for a long time, such as army compressed biscuits…Do as I’ve said, and thank me later.”

After leaving these inexplicable words, he simply walked up to the second floor with his equipment bag on his back, climbed the wall from the blind corner of the monitor again, and disappeared on the balcony. 

Lin Yuxin was left confused more than ever. She hurriedly ran out to chase him, but could only make out the GuFan’s back as he climbed over the wall in the shadows, and disappeared into the dark.

She took the phone on the sofa, was going to call the police, but hesitated. The whole city would be looking for GuFan now, but can they really catch such a “cold-blooded killer”? 

If she does call the police, will it provoke him to retaliate? 

What a nightmare!

Thinking of the real GuFan, who was hidden behind the mask of “an ordinary loser”, Lin Yuxin truly thinks he is a demonic character with cold blood. 

Would a demon like this mock her, by telling her ridiculous jokes?

“Buy a lot of supplies”

“Could it be that GuFan knows secret internal news, that there is going to be a war, so prices are going to soar?”

Lin Yuxin mutter to herself. She was still hesitating on GuFan’s final advice, but looking back, GuFan’s expression wasn’t mocking, or playful. It seemed to be a warning.

“Ok!!”

“I may be crazy, but I do want to try what GuFan said, and see what will happen.” Lin Yuxin mumbled as she was shocked at her own final decision. 

But..this might also be the most current choice made by Lin Yuxin, which will guard her against the calamity and darkness in the upcoming future.[Read this novel and other amazing translated novels from the original source at the “Novel Multiverse dot com” website @ novelmultiverse.com]
