Holographic esports leagues are Alpha's showgrounds. The Fading team Polaris, in order to gather professionals and return to the arena, surprisingly recruited a wizard whose secondary gender is...
After Lin Mingfei closed the door, Zheng Linchuan and the lawyer he brought with him knelt on the ground for at least a minute before their numb knees regained some feeling.
Both of their faces were flushed red and white, and they were extremely embarrassed. Fortunately, this villa area was cheap and expensive, and there were not many people coming and going. Otherwise, their embarrassment of "giving people such gifts during the New Year" would have been seen by everyone.
Zheng Linchuan felt a surge of anger in his heart. Although he turned around and left, he kept looking back along the way, imprinting the huge and beautiful Polaris sign in his mind.
After returning home, Zheng Linchuan tossed and turned in bed, unable to sleep. Somehow, he had never taken Xia Tong's existence seriously before, thinking that he had an unlucky little "vase" at home. So when Xia Tong left, he just felt relaxed and happy.
But now, the little Omega's every smile and frown kept floating in his mind. His skin was so white and delicate, his eyes were so bright, and his nose was so straight. He actually had a fairy-like air, and seemed to be seducing, pure and lustful. He was more charming than any other Omega he had dated before, and he suddenly couldn't forget her.
He tossed and turned in bed, feeling hot and restless, and suddenly thought of Lin Mingfei.
That Alpha-like person was handsome and beautiful, with a higher pheromone level than him. Moreover, he walked out of the base shirtless in broad daylight, looking lazy and contented. He also threw a cigarette butt at him while saying contemptuously -
"Xia Tong is now my OMega."
Even if Zheng Linchuan was a mentally retarded person, he now understood the relationship between the two of them.
That is a declaration of sovereignty.
Lin Mingfei's existence was like a thorn, piercing Zheng Linchuan's heart and causing him immense shame and anger. He had previously struggled to understand how Xia Tong, a little Omega with no money and no common sense, could survive well after leaving the Zheng family? And how could she have met that Alpha named Lin Mingfei? The two of them were now like a match made in heaven.
Xia Tong probably sold her butt to Lin Mingfei, so she received so much care.
The more Zheng Linchuan thought about it, the worse he felt. The unpleasant feeling of being deprived of his belongings was like a spit stuck in his throat, unable to get up or down. He was forced to get up from the bed again and pace back and forth in the room. Finally, he kicked the cabinet in anger. With a "clang", the door of the bedside table was twisted, the connecting shaft broke, and the door opened crookedly outwards.
Zheng Linchuan was so angry that he was about to yell a few words, but suddenly he looked down and showed a look of surprise.
There was a box at the bottom of the bedside table. The lid of the box was shaken open, and it was empty inside, with only a warranty certificate written entirely in a foreign language.
Zheng Linchuan was just like all other playboys, spending money lavishly and throwing away things he didn't like. He had no habit of keeping them in storage. These things had probably been left here for ages and were no longer in his memory, so he couldn't remember what was in the box for a while. It wasn't until he took out the box together with the warranty card that he vaguely remembered that the box contained some luxury items that he had grown tired of or were out of fashion and no longer valued.
It would have been fine if he hadn't remembered it, but now that he remembered it, if there was something in it, where did it go? Did it grow wings and fly away?
Zheng Linchuan fell into deep thought. Even if he was an idiot and didn't value money, he couldn't just throw the luxury goods he bought away with the garbage, unless he was sleepwalking... But if it wasn't him, who else could it be?
"Xia Tong..." He squeezed out a name from between his teeth, finding a possibility for those missing luxury goods.
There was a sinister glint in his eyes, but then he suddenly became calm, took out his cell phone from under the pillow and called his lawyer.
"Old Wu, how many years can you get for human trafficking and theft?"
After winning the championship, Polaris took a half-month vacation. Bo Yu went home to visit his family, Shi Ya and Zhou Yanjun went on a trip abroad together, and Lin Mingfei, as the captain of Polaris, except for a break on the day the game ended, she has been busy since then. She originally wanted to stay at the base with Xia Tong and enjoy a while of life together, but her wish was shattered.
Xia Tong had no choice but to stay at the homestead obediently. When she was hungry, Aunt Song would cook for her. When she was bored, she could watch TV or play video games. It was so comfortable.
Every day when Aunt Song left, Xia Tong would enthusiastically see her off to the door. Today was no exception. After Aunt Song changed her shoes, she lowered her head and suddenly found a courier envelope at the entrance of the base.
"Oh, whose postman is so unprofessional..." She bent down to pick up the courier envelope, dusted it off with her hand, and turned to Xia Tong and said, "How could they just throw something sent to you on the ground?" Xia Tong: "Huh?"
Afterwards he didn't think too much about it. After all, ever since their team became popular, fans would often send them small loving gifts, and there would be no news to notify him or anything.
"Give it to me, it's okay." He said, "Bye, Auntie Song!"
After closing the door, Xia Tong walked back while opening the express envelope. He lazily fell on the sofa, pulled out a thin piece of letter paper inside and spread it out.
The next second, he suddenly sat up straight from the sofa.
[Xia Tong, I'm Zheng Linchuan. It seems like you've been doing well since leaving the Zheng family. How much did you make selling the things you stole from my locker? Did you spend it all? 138XXXXXXX, this is my contact number. You'd better get back here as soon as possible, or I'll sue you and your lover, Alpha, to death for human trafficking and theft.]
"This?...this?..." Xia Tong was frightened by the contents of the letter. Her face turned pale and her hands trembled.
After so much time had passed, he had almost forgotten the name "Zheng Linchuan". In fact, with the Zheng family's attitude at the time, he thought that leaving the Zheng family was the best of both worlds, and the Zheng family had long forgotten him.
But now, the name Zheng Linchuan came upon him again with the old dark nightmare.
Xia Tong's heart was pounding. He jumped off the sofa in a panic and rushed to the door of the club. He opened the door a crack, stuck his head out and looked around for a while, but didn't see anyone. He closed the door again, leaned his back against the door, and gasped for breath. Cold sweat soaked the back of his clothes.
He lowered his head and looked at the phone number on the letter paper again.
That should be Zheng Linchuan's phone number. Zheng Linchuan contacted me and asked me to go back...
Just thinking about this kind of thing made Xia Tong feel so uncomfortable that his whole body felt like it was about to break apart. He was used to a life of freedom and independence. If he were to return to the horrible cage of the Zheng family, he would really be better off dead...
He took out his cell phone, entered the number, and sent a message.
[Zheng Linchuan, I'm Xia Tong. I took those things from your bedside table, but I can return all the money to you. I have money now and can transfer it to you.]
As soon as the message was sent, this phone number called.
Xia Tong looked at the caller ID and instinctively felt nauseous. She hung up the phone without even answering it.
Afterwards, Zheng Linchuan sent him a message.
"Do I need that little bit of your money? I told you I want you to come back here right now. Don't you understand? You were bought by the Zheng family. You belong to the Zheng family in life and a ghost in death. The contract for buying you is still in my safe. If you don't come back, I'll put Lin Mingfei in jail."
Xia Tong's heart trembled and she bit her lower lip hard.
His fingers holding the phone turned pale, and he kept telling himself in his heart, "Calm down, you must stay calm."
He is no longer the little Omega who would cry when something happened. He needs to learn to think and judge the situation.
Zheng Linchuan's words were so harsh, but they were not necessarily true... After all, Ping Shuai had committed such a serious crime and was still awaiting trial. He Youjin said that it would take several months for the actual sentencing and the entire process had to be completed.
Even if Zheng Linchuan had extraordinary abilities, he couldn't do anything to Zero right away...
Thinking of this, Xia Tong felt a little relieved.
But it was a fact that he had stolen Zheng Linchuan's things... He could have returned everything, or paid more money to make up for Zheng Linchuan's losses, but he was afraid that Zheng Linchuan would not accept it. There was also the so-called human trafficking... This was beyond his understanding.
From the very beginning, he had no idea what kind of existence he held in the Zheng family. Obviously, he had no blood relationship with anyone in the Zheng family, and he was not like a servant of the Zheng family, doing corresponding work in exchange for commission... The Zheng family treated him more like placing an item, a purchased item.
Now, he has been following Lin Mingfei for a long time and has no plans to go back.
So, in that case, is Lin Mingfei considered human trafficking? Is this justified? Is it legal?
If his behavior of following Lin Mingfei without permission was unreasonable and illegal, then did his original presence in the Zheng family become reasonable and legal?
Xia Tong racked his brains but couldn't come up with an answer. He only felt more and more distressed and anxious. He paced back and forth in his room, repeatedly thinking about calling Lin Mingfei, but stopped himself at the last moment. He vaguely felt that telling Lin Mingfei directly about this matter was not a good idea. Would Lin Mingfei, in a rage, go to Zheng Linchuan to settle the score? Would that be like walking into a trap?
Xia Tong's fingers hovered over the phone screen, sliding it up and down sloppily, and suddenly saw a name in the contact list.
Gu Dongsheng.
The author has something to say: Xia Tong: I forgot that I have a super cheat!
