Chapter-12[Revenge-2]

"Who made this damn soup!! AHH!! My tongue!! Urghh…M-my throa…!! It hurts!!!"

A man wearing a white coat writhed on the ground while holding his throat. Tears and snot were covering the man's face. His body was sweating beyond the limit.

'Isn't that soup…' Adam who saw that instantly looked at his girlfriend who innocently smiled in response. Then he shook his head.

"Call the DOCTOR!!" The woman standing beside the man ordered the waiters and picked the man up. Others went up to help the man too.

Situ Xun narrowed her eyes and looked back at Adam.

"I am sorry for the commotion, but I will have to take my leave." She apologetically said. It was clear from the angry look in her eyes that she wanted to solve it quickly.

"Miss. Xun, let us come with you too," Adam replied. He was not just playing nice but also because he wanted to get on the good side of these Situ siblings because the Situ Family was one of the major families of Qinghai Province. It would help him in the future if he wanted to develop his business in Qinghai Province.

Situ Xun looked at her brother who nodded back.

"Then, let's go, Mr. Adam."

The five of them stood up and went toward that place where people were grouping together. Seeing them coming forward, the group of mobs made way for them and Situ's siblings started to look at the man and then Situ Xun focused on the woman who was with the man.

"What happened here?"

The woman becomes nervous in Situ Xun's presence but seeing her man's state, she answered, "He drank the soup that was just served, and then his condition started like that."

"Did he have any previous problems before?" Situ Xun asked with a frown on her face.

"N-No! He had his checkups on regular basis and there is no problem in him."

"I see…" Situ Xun turned at Situ Zian. "Call the manager of this hotel. I need a valid explanation for this blunder."

Situ Zian nodded and called a waiter, ordering him to find the manager.

"No one is allowed to drink the soup!" Situ Xun said loudly to the audience.

In the meantime, the doctors arrived too. They started to diagnose the writhing man's condition and see that it continued to worsen, they made him unconscious.

"What did you do in the kitchen?" Adam asked Lilliana in a low tone. He could somewhat guess that it was a nasty thing but he still asked.

Lilliana smiled sweetly, "I just played with the bottles there."

Adam looked at the man's condition and decided not to ask about what bottles she had played with. The man's condition was not something he wanted to in.

"Miss. Situ Xun, the man seemed to have taken a large number of spices which had made him like this. We have given him medicine for now but I recommend him to be taken to a hospital to help him cleanse the things he had eaten off his palate." The doctor gave the diagnosis report in a serious tone.

Situ Xun nodded. Someone had already called for the ambulance.

"Sister, he is the manager of this hotel." Situ Zian dragged La Ji by his neck and threw him to the ground. La Ji groaned as he fell and looked around fearfully.

Everyone looked at him with disgust. While they were not as well known as the Situ Family but they all were still elites in their work and if by any chance, they had drunk that soup, then their condition would have been like that. So, their emotions were justified.

Situ Xun stared at La Ji like he was a piece of shit. 'He made us lose our face in front of so many guests and not only that, he even made it hard for me to have a deeper rela…no…'

She was angry right now. It was even visible on her face.

Situ Zian seeing that sweated. 'This guy is finished today. The last time I had seen her was when someone from the company tried to swindle her, thinking of her as just some pampered young lady but now, that man is counting days behind the bars…'

"Do you have anything to explain yourself with?" Situ Xun asked angrily.

La Ji trembled. His eyes were not able to look at Situ Xun at all. His legs were quivering in fear.

Adam suddenly looked at La Ji. 'The link is becoming weaker right now…what happened?'

'Celeste?'

[It's because his mind is being overpowered right now. You should have an idea of how long you can control him easily, right~?]

'Yes…I think I could still control him for around 3 minutes.'

[Then complete your work~]

'Hmm…'

Adam looked at Lilliana, who was staring at the scene with a smile on her face. 'Right, this man was one of those who nearly made me lose her…I have no need to be polite with him…'

Adam shifted his sight to La Ji. 'Ran toward the cutlery area and grab a knife, then pick someone and use them as a hostage, but don't hurt them.'

Even though Adam gave an order, he felt something drained from him in a large amount. 'The amount of mana used right now was enormous. I guess the stronger mind I need to control, the more mana am going to consume. This means…this trash's mind was broken completely before due to fear that I needed to use a little bit of mana to control him…'

Adam soon analyzed how the use of [Mind Control] worked. As the description provided by the system was not enough.

Following his master's order, La Ji stood up under the gazes of everyone around him and ran to the cutlery area. His speed was fast as he ran with his life depended on it.

"Where is this bastard going?!" Situ Zian followed behind La Ji but he was late.

La Ji picked up the knife and grabbed the teenage girl that was recording everything on her phone. He placed the knife on her neck and looked around vigilantly.

"D-Don't come near me…!!" He shouted. "I will kill this girl!!"

"Release that girl!!" Situ Xun shouted with a nervous look on her face. She seemed to be afraid of the girl in the trash's hand.

Meanwhile, Situ Zian and Wang Li both trembled.

Right now, there was clarity returning to La Ji's mind. But it was still not enough to overpower the control that Adam had.

'Ahh…no, this revenge is boring….' Adam suddenly thought and began looking around. H had failed to see the expressions on the face of Situ Group. Then his eyes landed on the large soup bowl and a smirk plastered on his face.

'My servant, go and drink that soup. As much as you could. Then, jump off from the right corner of the building. And if you remain alive, then quickly jump again to the ground floor.'

La Ji's body trembled as those words entered his mind. Like a devil's statement, his body moved on its own. He tried to struggle but his mind refused. 'N-no! I don't want to!!'

He was mentally screaming.

The silver-haired girl with her hair tied into twin ponytails remained calm. Her eyes were just looking at the knife like it was nothing.

La Ji threw the girl away. Her body crashed into the sofas but she released not a single shriek. Instead, she stood up as if everything was fine and looked toward Adam.

Lilliana who noticed the gaze on Adam turned at the girl. And the next moment, she turned her head. 'How could someone have such expressionless eyes?!' Her body shivered.

The eyes of the silver-haired girl were filled with nothing. They were blank. No emotion was shown in then…no, even the light a human had in their eyes was absent in her eyes,

La Ji quickly ran to the soup area with the knife pointed forward. No one stopped him, even the guards that had come here watched from afar.

"What is he doing?" Situ Xun asked. But soon she got the answer.

La Ji grabbed the ladle(Large serving spoon) and started drinking soup directly from it. Seeing him doing that, everyone moved far away.

La Ji had tears in his eyes. His throat felt like burnin,g, all of inside churned. Snot covered his face and entered his mouth along with the soup.

His lips got swollen. Sweat covered his entire body.

"Disgusting…what the hell is he doing?" Situ Xun looked at La Ji with disgusted look. She couldn't comprehend what the hell was wrong with the trash.

"Is he mentally upset? And got even worse due to Big Sister's pressure?" Situ Zian jokingly said.

Wang Li shook her head and smiled, "You know that it will pay you back when you go home, right dear?"

Situ Zian trembled and mechanically turned his head at his sister, who was glaring at him. 'Ahh...fuck…I am dead…' he instantly knew his future.
