Chapter 302 Kneeling Down to Apologize

Qin Nianshu, abandoning her previous timid nature, stared intently at the third brother with a stubborn and cold glint in her gray-white eyes.

"Really? So you know that you got into Dawn Base through my connections? Take a good look at the injuries on my face. How did he hit me just now? And how did he hit me before?"

They said they'd protect me better once I entered Dawn Base? I think it'll be easier for you guys to kill me once you're inside.

"I regret it now. I don't think you're good people. You don't deserve to be in Dawn Base. I don't want you to be in Dawn Base anymore. I'm going to talk to the base commander right now."

The third brother trembled with fright and quickly said, "No, no, your dad was just too impulsive to hit you. Let's talk to him and make him apologize to you, okay? Don't be angry. If your dad hits you again, your uncles will protect you."

The others standing nearby nodded in agreement.

"Yes, yes, we'll protect you. We'll never let your dad lay a finger on you again."

"Good niece, don't be angry. Your father knows he was wrong and won't hit you anymore. We won't lend you crystal cores anymore either. Just wait for your guaranteed admission."

They knew better than anyone that they could only enter the Dawn Base if Qin Nianshu was willing to help them.

Without Qin Nianshu, there would have been no possibility at all.

Before they lost their crystal cores, even with the ability-enhancing fluid, they still had to fight desperately to have a chance of making it into the top two thousand.

There are too many capable superhumans with crystal cores; their small group is not worth mentioning.

Now that they've lost their crystal cores, there's no hope left. If they don't hold onto Qin Nianshu tightly, they really won't have a chance to enter the Dawn Base.

Previously, Qin Nianshu had never made a sound when she was beaten, so they thought this little girl was easy to manipulate.

Who knew this child would have such a temper? When she gets angry, she might just abandon him without a second thought. That won't do.

Qin Dongguo looked at the child who had once been submissive to him, now suddenly threatening him, and his anger surged.

He rolled up his sleeves, wanting to punch Qin Nianshu again, "You think you're so great now, huh? You think you're something just because you stepped into the Dawn Base. I'll teach you how to be filial to your parents and show you the consequences of disobeying your elders."

Qin Nianshu stared with her round eyes, "Yes, hit me, beat me to death, or tie me up and take me with you, whatever you want, but as long as I don't agree, or if I'm injured and die, you still can't enter the Dawn Base."

"Kill me, and I'll repay you with my life."

She stood there with her neck stiff, giving off an air of "let's all just die."

She was threatening them.

The fact is, she can now threaten them.

Upon hearing this, the second brother quickly stopped Qin Dongguo, saying, "Don't hit the child. Children this age are going through a rebellious phase. You can't use force. You have to coax him. Be patient for now, and we'll talk about other things once we're in the Dawn Base."

Qin Dongguo understood what the second brother meant.

The most important thing now is to get into Dawn Base. Once we're in Dawn Base, he can discipline his kids however he wants, and who can say anything about it?

Thinking of his future, Qin Dongguo forced himself to suppress his anger.

For the first time in his life, he apologized to his daughter, saying, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't have hit you. I won't hit you again."

A strange light gleamed in Qin Nianshu's grayish-white eyes, and an ambiguous smile curled at the corner of her lips. "Is an apology enough?"

The third brother was still holding onto her, afraid she would run away, and coaxed her by asking, "Then what do you want? We still have some snacks on us. We'll give them all to you as an apology, okay?"

As they spoke, the group quickly took out the food from their bodies.

Their priority now is to keep Qin Nianshu in check and get her into the Dawn Base after the seven-day selection period.

"I don't want snacks," Qin Nianshu said, staring at Qin Dongguo and enunciating each word clearly. "I want him to kneel down and apologize to me."

For a moment, the group of people who were busy taking out snacks were stunned and stared blankly at Qin Nianshu.

The third child asked incredulously, "What did you just say? Did I hear that right?"

Qin Nianshu's grayish-white eyes moved to the third brother's face. "You heard me right. I want him to kneel down and apologize to me. Kneel down and apologize, and I will still guarantee your admission to the Dawn Base. If you don't kneel, I'm leaving, and you can do whatever you want."

She spoke with absolute certainty, her voice icy. The third brother felt a chill run down his spine and his hair stand on end under Qin Nianshu's gaze.

Qin Dongguo was furious. "You unfilial daughter! I'll beat you to death today and teach you what it means to respect your elders!"

As he spoke, spikes on the ground suddenly rose up and stabbed at Qin Nianshu.

Fortunately, the third brother was prepared and condensed an ice shield to protect Qin Nianshu in the middle; otherwise, the previous thrust would have been enough to pierce Qin Nianshu through.

The third brother scolded, "Boss, can you calm down? Don't you really want to join Dawn Base? Qin Nianshu is a space-type ability user. Space-type abilities are precious in any base."

"If you kill Qin Nianshu, forget about getting into Dawn Base; we'll all be hunted down by Dawn Base. Can't you use your brain?"

The fourth brother chimed in, "Yeah, can't you stop being so impulsive? No matter what, she's your daughter. How could you do this to your own daughter?"

Encased in the ice shield, Qin Nianshu crashed heavily to the ground, glared fiercely at Qin Dongguo, and then turned and ran towards the base.

The group was startled. If the people at Dawn Base found out that they had almost killed Qin Nianshu, would they be in big trouble?

Third brother, fourth brother, and fifth brother, quickly block Qin Nianshu's way.

"Good child, don't be angry, your dad didn't mean it."

"Yes, yes, Uncle will protect you. With Uncle here, you won't get hurt."

Qin Nianshu sneered. They even tried to kill, and it wasn't intentional. These people are really good at fooling people.

Do you really think she's a little kid?

Qin Nianshu only said one thing: "I'm giving you one last chance. Make him kneel down and apologize to me."

Her greyish-white eyes gleamed with a faint light, clearly indicating that she was serious. The matter had escalated to an irreconcilable point, and the only solution now was to make Qin Dongguo kneel down and apologize.

Otherwise, given the child's stubbornness and the fact that Dawn Base is backing her up, these people might not even get a guaranteed admission; they'd really be in deep trouble.

So the four of them earnestly advised Qin Dongguo.

"Boss, just apologize to the kid. Our future is all in your hands."

“You beat the child to death, and you almost killed the child just now. It was definitely your fault, and you should apologize to the child.”

"That's right, for the sake of your future, just bear with it. It's only seven days, just seven days. After seven days, everything will be settled, and you can have whatever you want."

"Apologize, calm down, it's just your knee, it's okay to bend it a little, it's all for your bright future."

They stopped Qin Nianshu from giving her heartfelt advice, almost as if they wanted to kneel down and apologize to her.

But how much of it is genuine?

It's all for our own future, so what's wrong with making others kneel down?
