Chapter 78: Fiery Tom

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation       Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

Fiery Tom raised his hand and snatched the tree branch from Bai Shao when he passed by him again.

It was only after running for more than ten meters that Bai Shao realized what he held in his hand was gone. He looked over angrily. “Who are you? How could you snatch somebody else’s item? Return it to me!”

Fiery Tom played with the stick that had been gnawed by the snow leopards. His eyes fell on Bai Shao and he smiled. He then threw the stick to the two unusually quiet snow leopards.

When the stick fell to the ground and rolled twice, the snow leopards did not rush up excitedly to bite it. Instead, they seemed to be frightened and retreated suddenly. At the same time, they lowered their bodies and stared at the man vigilantly.

Fiery Tom put his hands in his pockets and walked toward the snow leopards unhurriedly. However, he took only one step and the snow leopards quickly fled back to their own cabin.

He met the curious gazes of Bai Shao and the other family, spread his hands, and shrugged helplessly.

“I’m innately disliked by small animals.”

[It’s hard to be liked, though. After all, he’s a top-tier mercenary. He’s so scary.]

[Who i s this man? A mercenary? Why is he here in Traveler? To abuse trash?]

[Let me fill you in. Fiery Tom belongs to Scorpio Mercenary and is active at the border all year round. Because he often livestreams during missions, there was once when the enemy nearly wiped out his whole team because of his livestreaming, so we affectionately call him Double Agent.]

[Bro Double Agent’s net worth is ranked second among all the top mercenaries. The first is Bilina, who’s never shown her face before. He’s become the first ever since Bilina retired.]

[He’s here to chase after his idol and protect the most precious person in his heart. As for who it is, I’m making a bold guess that it’s our beautiful and kind Xixi.]

[Thank you for your kind info, info bro. But the speculations after that are really unnecessary.]

[Bai Xi? That’s impossible, right? Isn’t she in the entertainment industry?

How’s she related to Fiery Tom?]

[Of course it’s because Xixi is the little fairy in the showbiz. Fiery Tom said that person is often bullied in the show. Isn’t Bai Xi often bullied by Bai Lin? And she’s completely in line with Fiery Tom’s ideal girlfriend!]

[I don’t believe in these rumors. However, I am guessing that it might be Bai

[Guessing Bai Lin is even more ridiculous. Fiery Tom likes the pure type, and Bai Lin doesn’t seem to be pure at all.]

[Everyone i s seen Bai Lin’s performance on the show. How can she be an ordinary person with such skills? I suspect that she also has a special identity, such as a mercenary or something.]

[This is so funny. Bai Lin’s level can be achieved with a little training, right? I don’t deny her outstanding performance, but can you not praise her like that?]

[Stop quarreling. We’d know after they split into groups. Fiery Tom must be in the same team as the person he likes to protect that person, right?]

[Hurry up and split into teams! I can’t wait!]

The two snow leopards pulled on Bai Lin’s pants and brought her out of the door.

They were like children who had been beaten. When they could not beat others, they got their parents to come and whine.

They were both fierce and timid.

“Bai Lin?” Fiery Tom took a step and leaned forward with a smile and beaming fox-like eyes. “Hello.”

The moment he got close, Bai Lin’s body tensed up. Her ability to sense danger, which had been trained through overcoming dangers, allowed her to immediately know that this man was not as kind as he appeared.

She looked up without fear. “Did you bully my leopards?”

Fiery Tom’s smile deepened, Bai Lin’s calm expression was reflected in his eyes. “No, I didn’t even touch them.”

The leopards seemed to have noticed the unusual atmosphere and pulled Bai Lin back.

Bai Lin did not move. She narrowed her eyes and sized him up.

This person looked familiar but she did not seem to remember coming into contact with him.

As Bai Lin thought about it, Fiery Tom suddenly straightened up and took a step back, putting a safe distance between the two of them.

He kept the frivolous smile off his face and looked at her expressionlessly. He actually looked even more dangerous. “Do you know me?” Bai Lin was baffled.

“I don’t,” Fiery Tom replied.

“So you have a grudge against me?

Fiery Tom’s expression turned even colder. “No.”

Seeing him like this, Bai Lin did not want to talk to him anymore and looked behind him.

It was a family of three with the father bringing along a younger sister and an elder brother. The two of them looked similar and were a pair of twins.

When they saw Bai Lin looking over, they all heaved a sigh of relief.

The atmosphere between the two of them just now was too tense, as if they were about to fight. The family of three did not dare persuade them, and the door was blocked, so they could only stand awkwardly in place like they were punished.

They did not know what kind of enmity Fiery Tom had with Bai Lin since he had been friendly and happy to chat with them on the way here..
