"What’s not to see?"
Listening to this voice, the expressions on the eight people’s faces were all different. Luo Qianqian’s face showed surprise and delight, Luo Shufan was astonished, Bai Yizhu was relieved, Lin Jiayou looked resigned, Bai Yixian had a comforting smile. In contrast, Han Wei’s face was filled with shock, Han Yi’s with gravity, and Han Xi with confusion.
Luo Xiying kicked open the door of the wooden cabin, and the door flew off its hinges, crashing to the ground with an irreparable crack. Dressed in camouflage fatigues, carrying a backpack, donning a camouflage cap, and annoyingly wearing sunglasses, she held a submachine gun, followed by a number of camouflaged comrades.
"Luo Xiying! You are causing a disturbance to military discipline!" Han Wei said to Luo Xiying with trembling legs. As a mber of the Han Family, he was particularly afraid of the woman known as Killer God, but he tried to talk tough regardless.
"I am training cross-country, none of your business where I do it." Luo Xiying waved at Luo Qianqian, "Look at you, so weak. Co on, your uncle will buy you a cake later." She tapped Luo Qianqian’s forehead with her finger, still smiling, then turned around with a dark face to look at Han Wei and the two n: "Who dares to touch my family without asking ?"
Luo Shufan stretched his arms and walked to Luo Xiying’s side: "Uncle, you’re so slow. Qianqian is worrying about how she’ll complete her howork." Yet his eyes brimd with unexpected joy, he had not anticipated that Luo Xiying would arrive so swiftly.
"Good boy, Xiao Baibai, take them aside. I’m going to vent so anger for my niece and nephew," she said, tossing the equipnt on her to her comrades, but she didn’t take off her sunglasses.
"Xiao Baibai?" Bai Yizhu looked doubtfully at himself and his brother, only understanding when he saw Bai Yixian’s ears turning red; he burst into hearty laughter.
Bai Yixian regained his composure, had Lin Jiayou lead Luo Shufan and Luo Qianqian away first, and then walked behind, pinching Bai Yizhu’s ear.
Once everyone had left, Luo Xiying curled her lips into a smile and beckoned Han Wei and his companions with a crook of her finger: "Who’s first, or will you co at together?"
"Brother..." Han Xi was dumbstruck. In the Han Family, aside from those with high status and power, who could compare to the Killer God, Luo Xiying standing before them? Facing her as an opponent ant feeling three parts less courageous without even fighting.
"Luo Xiying, you’ve already rescued the people, what more do you want? We didn’t hurt them, we only invited them as guests." Their reluctance to act against the five was largely due to the formidable presence before them.
"Today happens to be my little niece’s birthday. If I hadn’t made it, and she lost interest in celebrating her birthdays, would you bla yourself?" Luo Xiying rubbed her nose, "I won’t use my legs, and seeing as they’re unhard, I won’t hit to kill, just to practice."
Han Wei’s face was lined with frustration; he couldn’t see how Luo Qianqian would not want to celebrate her birthdays in the future.
However, Luo Qianqian did indeed have a shadow cast on her notion of birthdays, having spent the whole day amidst scares. The surprise had been achieved, but where was the joy?
Sothing felt forgotten, but with so many things that had happened, it just couldn’t be rembered.
"Brother, we’re all out now, so tell us what you did to Wang Wei, will you? We’re really curious." Bai Yizhu eagerly asked, stepping back three paces from Bai Yixian as soon as his hand was freed.
Bai Yixian revealed a peculiar smile: "Disabled his five limbs, what else could I do?"
Luo Qianqian was the first to react, looking oddly at Bai Yixian.
"Huh?" Bai Yizhu was still confused: "So, is he crippled?"
"Sowhat," Bai Yixian touched his nose, standing outside the wooden cabin: "Go bring up the car, we can leave soon."
Bai Yizhu looked around at the others; besides him, Bai Yixian and their forr sidekick Lin Jiayou could drive. Bai Yixian clearly would not move, and he was afraid Lin Jiayou would flip the car before even getting it started.
"Qianqian, stay here. I’ll go with Zhuzi to get the car," Luo Shufan suggested, seeing the darkened sky, assuming Bai Yizhu was afraid, he patted him on the shoulder: "Let’s go, I’ll co with you."
Bai Yizhu’s eyes lit up. He decided he might as well take the opportunity to train Luo Shufan in driving; after all, driving was an essential skill. With a mischievous grin, he patted Luo Shufan on the shoulder: "Yeah, good brother."
"Uncle is in the city?" Luo Qianqian asked softly as she watched her brother walk away, arm in arm with Bai Yizhu, and approached Bai Yixian.
"Yeah," Bai Yixian touched his nose, feeling a bit awkward, with a look of certainty that he knew what she was implying. Are kids these days so sharp?
Luo Qianqian, quite understanding, patted Bai Yixian’s shoulder: "Take care of your health."
Bai Yixian sensed the deeper aning in Luo Qianqian’s words and looked at her questioningly, only to find her already gazing at the starry sky full of nostalgia: "The first ti we t was also around here, wasn’t it? With you and uncle. So many years have passed."
"Yes," Bai Yixian also wore a face of reminiscence as he looked towards his old factory: "We were young back then, not so much anymore."
"Is it because you don’t dare to eat super spicy food anymore?" Luo Qianqian teased with a smile, "I feel like drinking porridge."
Bai Yixian subconsciously nodded but then looked at Luo Qianqian with suspicion, sohow feeling there was more to her words.
"Let’s go to Wanhai Tower later, won’t go to your place. All that blood sll, better to sleep in the fast hotel next door," Luo Qianqian said calmly.
Bai Yixian was about to object when he thought of the sll at ho, nodded in agreent, and before he could say anything, he watched Luo Xiying co out carrying the door, which she propped back in its original place, barely managing to not fall over.
"Co here, Xiao Qianqian, give uncle a hug." He stretched out his arms with a peaceful expression, none of his killer aura in sight.
Luo Qianqian took a running start, jumped lightly, and landed steadily in Luo Xiying’s arms.
"By the way, where’s Xiao Fan? There are so many missed calls on his phone." Luo Xiying extracted several phones: "Qianqian’s phone is gone, I already looked for it."
"Mine probably broke, got thrown out on the mountain." Shufan’s phone had only three numbers dialing back and forth, one was Zhang Ye’s number and the other two were completely unknown, but there was one ssage:
Shufan, this is your second aunt. Soone is planning to harm you guys; we did not agree, but you need to be careful. Please reply if received.
Luo Qianqian paused, then laughed, her smile growing wider. This is what a family should be like, even if they don’t like sothing, they wouldn’t help an outsider harm others.
Her fingers swiftly typed a reply, but her action was interrupted by a call, coincidentally from that very number. Luo Qianqian answered the phone.
Upon the call being answered, the voice on the other end started cursing imdiately: "Don’t you know how to pick up the phone when nothing’s wrong? Are you deaf or crippled? Do you know soone’s worried?"
Luo Qianqian curved her lips: "I went out to play just now, wasn’t at ho, forgot to take my phone."
"Qianqian?" The voice on the other end, An Zixue, sounded surprised but then relieved: "As long as you’re okay, soone wanted our help in asking you out, don’t go running around lately, really don’t know what trouble you’ve all caused! Hanging up." And with that, the call ended.
With a smirk, Luo Qianqian deleted the ssage and called Zhang Ye back to reassure him everything was fine. Zhang Ye only relaxed after getting the news; he had considered reporting to the police if he still couldn’t get through after four hours. Following an explanation of the situation, he received another lecture from Zhang Ye before hanging up.
"Xiao Baibai, co with tomorrow to buy Qianqian a new phone as a birthday gift."
"Uncle, could you please move your esteed self and go with Uncle Bai to help look for my phone? My SIM card is still in there, and it’s too dark over there for to dare to go," Luo Qianqian said playfully as she fiddled with her brother’s phone, pointing towards the grove.
"Makes sense." Luo Xiying laughed and nodded, pushing the red-faced Bai Yixian as they departed.
