Xiao Zheng approached quickly, stopping in front of Catherine, his gaze stern as he looked at her.
"You, what do you want to do..." Catherine retreated a step, sowhat hesitant, her eyes avoiding Xiao Zheng’s stern gaze.
Xiao Zheng shook his head, saying nothing, but his expression grew increasingly serious.
Looking at Xiao Zheng, Catherine felt a bit of fear rising in her heart for so reason and instinctively retreated. But after a few steps, she felt she was losing face. She clenched her teeth, raised her chin, and said proudly, "I’m leaving now. I advise you not to stop , or I won’t be polite to you."
Xiao Zheng shrugged, moved aside without blocking her, but his expression remained just as serious.
Catherine pretended to have courage and took two steps forward, then glanced at Xiao Zheng’s face, swallowed, and said fearfully, "Why are you looking at like that..."
"I’m thinking..." Xiao Zheng paused, contemplating how to perfectly express his current feelings. After breathing several tis, he raised his head and said, "You, or you all, what do you want to rember?"
Hearing this, Catherine hesitated for a mont, then her expression gradually darkened, letting out a bitter smile, saying, "Many things, many people, perhaps. Sotis, when we look at you, we worry that you’re too tired, that you bear too much, and everyone around you places their hopes on you."
"This is actually very unfair, so we have no reason to demand that you must rember past things. You don’t want to assu responsibility, you don’t want to bear it, you’re very tired, and maybe you want to stop and rest for a while, which is normal."
"But once you are caught in this whirlpool in this world, no one can extricate themselves, whether you want to or not. Soone will always watch you, soone will always treat you as an insider. When you one day want to jump out of this chessboard, you’ll only find."
"Your path has long been blocked by other chess pieces. There’s no way to escape, you can only keep walking on this endless chessboard, either forever trapped or defeat your opponent."
"So reality doesn’t allow us to stop." Catherine raised her head, her face showing an unseen seriousness as she gazed at Xiao Zheng: "If there’s soone extrely important to you, and one day he forgets you, what would you do?"
Xiao Zheng was silent.
Catherine smiled, but it was slightly bitter: "People who are important to you and regard you as the most important will never give up on you."
"To you, it’s the past, once, even from a previous life. But to us, it’s the actual reality."
She spread her hands, her face revealing a radiant smile: "Relentless pursuit, never letting go, you taught that!"
Xiao Zheng closed his eyes, his face showing struggle, a mont later the corners of his mouth slowly curved into a smile: "This way of doing things is indeed to my liking."
A sumr morning, gentle breeze stirring thin thoughts of love.
Seeing Catherine off, Xiao Zheng returned indoors, where Yuan Ying was quietly watching him.
Xiao Zheng smiled, understanding this little girl was worried about him, went up and ruffled her smiling face: "Don’t worry, your boyfriend is very strong!"
Yuan Ying also gave him a smile, then jumped into his embrace, burying her head, her fingers constantly writing sothing on his chest.
Xiao Zheng sighed deeply, holding Yuan Ying tightly in his embrace, whispering in her ear.
"It’s okay, I’ll handle these things well, don’t worry. I’ll have a good talk with them."
His head rested on shoulders shorter than his own, greedily inhaling the youthful scent of the girl in his arms. Although Yuan Ying couldn’t express her feelings with words, sotis Xiao Zheng felt she might understand him better than he understood himself.
The corners of his mouth carried a gentle smile.
Finally, he felt a little at ease.
...
...
Though he sent Catherine away, Xiao Zheng didn’t believe this foreign girl would simply give up, especially after she said those words to him before leaving, reinforcing his belief.
Though he couldn’t think of what ways the little foreign girl might use to entangle him, of course, no matter what way she uses, Xiao Zheng would deal with her with his usual thod, blocking every attack.
Villa in Zhonghai City.
Leng Ruobing looked at the report in her hand, her expression gradually darkening.
The entire villa’s study was empty, giving her space and ti to think calmly. This was a war, a life-and-death battle, but Sky Net did not fear war.
Having lived through many crises that once threatened to annihilate Sky Net’s family, they’ve overco them one by one. Now, several uneven small families trying to annihilate them? Ridiculous.
But the developnt of the situation was still beyond Leng Ruobing’s expectations. Originally, whether it was Beidao Guang or Great Sound Buddha Sect, gradual progress seed their best choice. However, since yesterday they suddenly seed insane, relentlessly attacking Sky Net’s periphery.
Soon compressing Sky Net’s control into an area neither big nor small.
If this passive stance continues, Sky Net will eventually collapse!
Moreover, the assassinations against Sky Net and others who’ve had contact with Xiao Zheng have never stopped. From the recent information, even Mo Anna from Mo Family was targeted by assassins at least twice...
This forced Leng Ruobing to beco extrely vigilant, be it against herself, Chu Xiaoran, or others, these threats are the most dangerous ans to Sky Net.
Anyone who ets a tragic fate will severely harm Sky Net!
Thinking of this, Leng Ruobing let out a long breath, returned the file to the table, then gently stroked her slightly swollen abdon, turning to look at the balcony facing the sea, her expression gradually showing a hint of fatigue and confusion.
Where... are you? I’m so tired, and I miss you so much.
Squeak
Long Qie pushed open the door but did not co in.
Martial Saint’s body regulation ability was incredibly strong, combined with a night’s adjustnt, he and Titan and Evil Eyes’ injuries had healed, but his face still carried a trace of lancholy.
"Why not co in?"
Long Qie hesitated for a mont but ultimately did not enter the study’s door, took a deep breath, speaking solemnly: "Beidao Guang and Great Sound Buddha Sect have begun attacking our headquarters."
The study remained silent for a long while.
"I know." Her voice carried thick exhaustion.
Long Qie closed his eyes trying to conceal his inner turmoil, monts later slowly retreated, closing the study’s door.
