Chapter 119 Choice
The Federation will no longer sit idly by after this incident and will certainly take control of the ancient humans. By then, whether she will face the situation of losing her freedom again is unknown.
Qiao Susu lowered her eyes, making the men present not know what she was thinking.
Karl couldn't stand it anymore, frowned and said to the men: "Why are you putting pressure on her? If you are a man, find a way to solve it!"
Liberi disliked him and retorted directly: "Then why don't you just break the prison and use your gift to get the people out directly? Aren't you awesome?"
Karl sneered and said disdainfully, "Robbery, do you think I don't dare?"
Qiao Susu was getting annoyed by the quarrel between the two of them. Just when she was at a loss as to what to do, Sang Yan spoke up.
"If you trust me, you can let Sui Sui join the Freedom Alliance."
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole living room fell silent.
Luka and Liberi looked at him at the same time. Sang Yan's eyes were very frank as he continued, "If she continues to stay in Osland, are you confident that you can always protect her? I believe no one understands the mediation and checks and balances involved better than you. However, no matter how long the Federation's reach is, it is limited to its member states."
Qiao Suisui's thoughts stirred, but she didn't show it on her face. She looked at Sang Yan and said, "But how do I know that the Freedom Alliance isn't another 'Federation'? They know my identity, so won't they restrict my freedom in the name of protection?"
Sang Yan shook his head, his eyes determined, and said to her, "I swear in the name of the Beast God that no one will force you to do anything you don't want to do there. If anyone hurts you, I will not let him go easily. If you break this oath, I am willing to mortgage my soul to you and be spurned by the gods forever."
The men present were silenced by the weight of the oath. Although they hadn't grown up in the Free Alliance, the Beast God held an inviolable position in their hearts. But Qiao Suisui, a modern materialist, didn't feel much. She trusted Sang Yan's character more than his oath.
"I believe you." said Qiao Susu.
"Sui Sui!" Libery half-knelt in front of her, no longer as tough as before. His eyes were red as he grabbed her wrist and asked, "Are you really going to leave me? What about the child? What about the child? Don't you want us anymore?"
Qiao Susu closed her eyes tiredly, and finally said, "Let me think about it." Then she went straight upstairs.
In the living room, the men were still sitting in silence.
Luka said nothing. Although they were indoors, his shoulders seemed covered with frost, and there was nothing left on his face except sadness.
He was a little distracted thinking, maybe the reason why he hadn't been able to tell her was because he was afraid of facing this situation, afraid of knowing that she could give up herself for someone. He never fought for it because he was afraid of the answer. When he and the other person were placed on the scale of her heart, which one was more important?
Carl scratched his head in frustration, making a "tsk" sound, ruffling his red hair like a chicken coop. He wished he wasn't bound by the obligations of the Federation. He wanted to cling to her, to go anywhere and do anything together.
Liberi pushed Luka's shoulder, the anger in his eyes unconcealed, and said, "She usually listens to you the most, why don't you stop her? As long as you ask, she will definitely not have the heart to refuse."
Luka's eyes were filled with dejection as he smiled bitterly, "Since we all know she won't be able to refuse, why should we use her emotions to hold her hostage? Ash, don't be silly. No one can stop her from doing what she really wants to do."
Liberi stood there in a daze, his hands clenched into fists, a feeling of unwillingness rising in his heart.
He turned to leave, but was stopped by Luka.
"What are you doing?"
"I'm going to ask her what's so good about that lunatic that she would do this to me!"
"Stop it!"
Luka couldn't hold him back, and Liberly, emotionally ignoring everyone, was about to go upstairs. Carl rolled his eyes while sitting on the sofa. Sang Yan kindly stepped forward to dissuade him, but was pushed away by Liberly.
"It's all your fault! What a bullshit suggestion! You're just pursuing your own selfish desires. You want to coax her to come to your place? Dream on!"
When Liberi and Sang Yan started fighting, Carl made a "tsk" sound and stood up to separate them with an impatient look on his face.
The first floor was suddenly in chaos.
upstairs.
Qiao Susu leaned her back against the cold wall and vaguely heard the quarrel coming from below. A feeling of helplessness that she had no one to talk to swept over her.
She slowly squatted down, hugged herself, and rested her head on her knees. Suddenly, the computer beeped and the light from the screen illuminated her face in the dark room.
【Celebrating Zhang Fei's discharge from hospital! 】
The attached picture is a selfie of Li Yi and Anubis. It is obvious that Li Yi took this photo using Anubis's laptop.
Qiao Susu wondered for a while who Zhang Fei was, and when she came to her senses she realized she had already laughed.
She clicked on the photo and saw the reserved young man in the photo. Lan Ze's words came to her mind again, especially the phrase "picking off the meat and bones", and she suddenly felt her heart ache.
She buried her head between her knees and sighed deeply, as if she wanted to let go of the heaviness of the day. After a while, the voice of Anubis suddenly appeared in the room.
"Hello?"
Only then did Qiao Susu realize that she had just touched the light brain by mistake and hit it directly.
"Joe?"
"Ah." Qiao Suisui quickly opened the voice-changing pill and said, "I, I want to congratulate you on being discharged from the hospital."
There was silence for a few seconds before a deep, magnetic voice rang out: "What happened?"
"It's okay. I'm just a little tired today."
Anubis pushed Li Yi, who was eavesdropping, away and walked to a farther place. He clenched the laptop in his hand and said, "If there is anything you can't solve, you can tell me."
After he finished speaking, he didn't hear any response from the other side. Anubis listened to her breathing quietly without urging her, as if he was accompanying her in a unique way.
After a while, her voice finally came through the brain: "If, I mean if... there is someone who is very kind to you, but often puts a lot of pressure on you. Now he is in trouble. You really want to help him, but you have to give up other things. Will you choose to help?"
"That depends on what you're giving up."
"What if you have to give up someone who is equally important to you?"
Anubis was silent for a moment, looked up at the moon in the sky, and said, "If it's someone very important, then I wouldn't consider this option."
At this time, Qiao Susu also walked to the window, opened it to get some fresh air, and the moonlight sprinkled on her body, her eyes were confused.
The two people holding the light computers were looking at the same moon at the same time.
"What if we just return to our original world?" She said this before coming to her senses. Anubis probably didn't understand what she was talking about at all. He smiled bitterly at himself and sighed, "Forget it, I don't know what I'm talking about either."
"Joe."
His voice was firm and powerful, and when he called her name, there was an imperceptible tenderness in it.
"Remember, no matter what decision you make in the end, I will stand by you unconditionally."
Qiao Susu was stunned. At this moment, the moonlight sprinkled on her like stars, wrapping her gently. Her confused heart was also filled with warmth.
That night, she made a decision.
