Chapter 57 Chapter 57 Hey! Look at me, an honest man...
I followed Corrialon out of the court gate and saw a luxury car parked at the door.
"Aren't you coming back at noon?" I asked in a low voice.
Kolyaron looked at me disdainfully and answered me with a silent sneer.
God, this old idiot is so reserved that it seems like he has lost ten lives every time he says a word to me. The more I watch him, the more annoyed I become.
But I couldn't really do anything in front of everyone, so I just stood there, twirling my clothes with my hands and blushing. "Then can I go to the cafeteria and get some food? I can't afford to eat outside, and the food in the court cafeteria is cheaper."
After saying that, I turned around and ran back to the court without caring whether he agreed or not.
After putting my lunch box in my pocket, I didn't run out, but went to Levin's office first.
"Levin! Levin!" I rushed in anxiously. "Coriaron of the Hori family has found me. What should I do?"
Levin raised his eyes and looked at me with a dazed look in them.
It's been a while since we've been alone together, so no wonder he seemed dazed.
After a trance, Levin pushed his glasses, looking a little tired. "What does he want you to do?"
"I, I don't know." I lowered my head in frustration. "Maybe it's because of Mr. Weisha's care for me during this period, or maybe it's something else. I don't understand."
Levin put down the papers in his hand.
"Levin?" I studied his face, confused by his sudden anger.
"Heh." Levin scoffed. "Isn't it because you intercepted me? Do you think you hid it well?"
My heart skipped a beat. I pretended to be confused and looked at him, frowning slightly. "What are you talking about?"
"Bai Wuyong, the entire Upward City knows about what happened last night, yet you're still pretending to be innocent?" Levin said with a cold smile. "You're working for the captain. If the news hadn't broken, I'd have thought you were just some idiot who got dragged into this."
Good, Levin finally has a sense of crisis.
I actually felt strangely relieved.
However, although you are relieved, it is wrong for you to question me.
My eyes immediately turned red. "You've always known I was innocent, but why have you never visited me in prison?"
"Why would I go see you?" Levin asked, as if it were a matter of course. "Do you really think I'd get stained with dirt just for you?"
"Me!" My words were stuck in my throat and I couldn't say anything. I could only look at his face with red eyes.
I quickly walked over, around the desk, and pulled him up from his chair. "Then what gives you the right to question me?"
"Yes! I'm working for the captain! But what else can I do?" I asked him at the top of my lungs. "Olvera was imprisoned in Scott Manor by you, and Bunlington Horry wanted to drag me out and use me as a pawn. Even you, who brought me out of the slums, turned a blind eye to my cries for help!"
"What can I do? What do you want me to do? Besides working for her, do I have any other chance to survive?"
But this time, Levin showed an indifferent calmness, and the smile on the corner of his mouth was full of sarcasm. "When you followed me out of the slums, didn't you say that you would rather die for dignity and morality?"
"Now it's just as you wished, so why are you framing the deputy captain just to survive?"
Oh my god! How can I refute you after you said that?
I was the one who framed him, and all the nonsense I said to maintain my image was indeed correct.
But if you deliberately bring up my past just to provoke me, that's your problem.
And what do you mean I have to frame someone just to stay alive? You're the ones who want me dead first, okay? If you guys weren't the ones who saw me, a lowly little cow, as easy to bully and just dragged me aboard, would I be jumping around here, racking my brains and scheming?
The quality is so bad, all of you should die!
I was so angry that I laughed, and I really laughed from anger.
If I hadn't remembered that things couldn't be exposed until the very end, I would have given up on the tragic plot and just slapped him to death.
"Levin, that's what you think." I said in a dark tone, "I should die. I should be willing to go to jail for your schemes. Even if it means I can only survive, I can't interfere with your plans, right?"
Levin didn't answer, which was considered as a tacit agreement.
This is what the Celestial Dragons are like.
I didn't feel sad or upset because I already knew what kind of people these bastards were.
No matter how tightly you wrap it in bed, it will return to its original shape once you get out of bed and put on your pants.
So how can we make these bitches obedient?
There are only two ways, either shut them up or make them "shut up".
I can't choose the former now, so I can only choose the latter.
"Levin." I called his name softly, and when I looked up at him, tears had already filled my eyes.
The omega I was holding had a momentary disordered breathing, and before he could step back, I took off his glasses.
"You've called me a low-class bastard many times. Not only you, but all of you have called me that." I cried and laughed at the same time, "I don't hate them, but I hate you."
"Why did you bring me out and throw me down again?"
"You arbitrarily deprived me of my dignity and self-respect, and when I gave them up, you took it for granted that you would give them back to me."
"You think you're giving me charity? You give me a slap and then a sweet date, so that I can become a toy that you can completely control?"
The breath was getting closer and closer. Without his glasses, Levin's eyes were a little evasive, but he still pursed his lips and said nothing.
Beta women often have a gentle and submissive expression, and their temperament is even more gentle and harmless. Because of this, people often overlook their somewhat aggressive and narrow eyebrows.
Levin suddenly realized that he had always been suppressed.
His social status allows him to maintain a false superiority in this relationship, but once his social status is taken away, he will be like an animal that falls from a branch into the water, trying to swim to the shore but can only open its mouth.
He thought the kiss would fall.
But there was nothing.
“…Forget it, it’s meaningless.” said the woman.
Then she let him go and resumed her docile and harmless appearance.
"Levin, consider this a goodbye," the woman continued. "I'm moving out of that apartment tomorrow and renting my own place. The captain is a very kind elder and should be willing to help me find a new place. Or I can go find Mr. Weisha. I don't understand why he's so kind to me, but I don't care. I'm very grateful to him, and I think he'd be willing to help me, too."
"I will try my best to repay your kindness in bringing me out of the slums. From now on... let's not meet again unless it's necessary."
She said the last word, put on his glasses, and then turned and left the office without any reluctance.
Levin's face turned pale as he slowly slid down onto the chair.
I breathed a sigh of relief as soon as I closed the door.
Luckily, I just glanced out the window. If I had been a little later and the impatient Corialon had come to my house, found someone to ask if I was near Levin's office, and caught me and Levin messing around, I would have been in big trouble!
I smacked my lips, feeling a little regretful that I didn't get to have the "Last Supper", but I had no choice but to give up.
When I got to the first floor, I saw the impatient Corey Lun.
"Sorry, I felt a little uncomfortable in my stomach during the meal." I said apologetically.
"Hmm." Corey Yalun snorted coldly and opened the car door for me with false gentlemanly etiquette.
I get it, I get it. Using small favors and gentlemanly gestures to demonstrate humility, and to convey to everyone that I'm not sexist and actually respect people of all genders besides alphas, is a familiar concept; I do it all the time.
"Thank you." I pretended to be flattered and got into the car, then sat there without moving.
Coriaron: ...
I smiled innocently, "You come up too."
Then he placed the greasy lunch box on the seat on the other side, leaving no room for him to sit in the entire back seat.
Corey's expression twisted slightly.
After a long moment, I suddenly realized what was going on and put the lunch box away in my arms. "I'm sorry, it's my first time riding in such a luxurious car. I'm inexperienced and I made a mess of your seat. I see there's room in the front passenger seat, so you can sit there."
Then I touched the passenger seat with my greasy hands.
Hehehe, I’ll make you mad.
At this point, there was no need for Corey Yalun to look for another car, so he could only suppress his anger and maintain the appearance of a gentleman while sitting in the passenger seat.
I leaned back and started gesturing in my mind.
Well, this is my driver.
Look at Corey Yalun again, this is my assistant, but because of his bad attitude, he will be fired from the company tomorrow.
The fantasy was really enjoyable, and the depression of not having dinner with Levin disappeared in an instant.
When we arrived at a hotel, I looked around and my inexperienced look attracted the attention and laughter of people around me.
I caught a nice-looking young man and gave him a shy smile, "Hello."
Young man: ...
He walked away quickly with a red face.
Entering the presidential suite, I became even more nervous and awkward, holding onto my lunch box as I followed Corria Lun. "Sir, what do you want from me?"
The alpha male pointed to the seat, "Sit."
I sat down, still holding the lunch box tightly.
"You should know why I'm looking for you," Coria Lun said, picking up his coffee. "I admire you very much. You know, it's very difficult for someone from the lower classes to achieve this. Even the former leader was just a family that fell on hard times."
If a family falls into poverty and becomes a beggar, it is like falling into the mud.
But I'm even more miserable, I grow directly in the center of the earth.
"Thank you." I immediately put on a smile, vividly demonstrating the image of a good person who shines with a little sunshine.
The corners of Coriaron's mouth twitched, and he looked like an old man with a condescending expression again. "But you can still go up."
"What?" I looked at him in surprise. "I, I haven't thought about it that much. Right now I just want to work hard in the archives and strive to get a permanent position as soon as possible."
"Oh? So you don't care about the Scott family anymore?" Corey Lun sneered.
My face turned pale, "I..."
He took a sip of coffee and said in a cold tone, "The Scott family has been liquidated as a rebel. Neither of them can survive."
"But they are innocent!" I stood up anxiously. "Do Levin and Olvera have to die? They are both good people. Is there really no way to negotiate?"
Corey Yalun held the coffee without moving, glancing sideways to observe my expression.
I still looked like that silly, good-natured person, my face full of anxiety and sadness that my good friend was about to die.
"If you want them to live, I can help you," said Korialon.
My eyes lit up, "Really?"
"The relationship between Judge Scott and Ansa cannot be concealed. Once it is exposed, they will have no choice but to be imprisoned and executed in order to quell the anger and public opinion." Corialon said slowly.
My expression also darkened and I listened to him carefully.
"With Dutalia's fall, and the Scott family's fall, it will surely attract the attention of others. The jury needs new members, and the Scott family's assets also need to find a new home. Bai Wuyong, who do you think will be the first to step forward at this critical moment?"
The alpha's eyes were deep, and the look he gave me was guiding.
This kind of guidance was more aggressive, trying to pull me in the direction he wanted.
I did as he wished: "Someone from the military zone?"
"The military zone is now the front line for dealing with the rebel party, and it holds the greatest power. Before the establishment of White Light Bay, the first president separated the powers of the jury and the military zone to create a balance of power. But this situation is unsustainable today with the rebel party."
"The people of Ascending City rely on the military zone for protection in their fight against the rebels. In exchange, they should voluntarily give up their interests. Jury and Scott are the first step in the leader's concession."
I quickly picked up on what Coriaron was saying. "This is also why the captain allowed Kasena to leave Ascend City and go to the military zone. Only by letting his daughter first understand the military zone can Kasena navigate the subsequent power transition more smoothly."
Kakot is worthy of being a man who climbed up from beggars. His mind is very quick. He sent his daughter to the military zone before the rebels even attacked. Who could have thought of this?
Haha, after going around in circles, in the end it’s still the same group of people eating.
"But if we do this, won't the people in Baideng Bay find out?" I asked without hesitation.
"They haven't left Baideng Bay for a long time, so they won't know." Koria Lun didn't care.
I almost couldn't help laughing.
It seems that the people of Shangxing City have been tolerating Baideng Bay for a long time.
"What does the captain plan to do?" I continued to ask.
"It's not about what she does, but what you do." Coria Lun avoided my sensitive topic, placed the coffee on the table, and looked at me with an oppressive gaze. "If you want the two Scotts to survive, you should give the others enough benefits to let them go."
I pursed my lips and fumbled with my lunch box.
First they released information to intimidate me, and then gave me a method that they had already known as a charity.
You really don't want to give anything out, old idiot.
So what should I do? Shut him up?
I couldn't shut Levin up today, so how could I shut him up?
"Just tell me directly?" I said in a weak, pleading voice.
"I'm a senator, and I happened to have the opportunity to meet a member of the Jane family," Corialon said. "They are currently responsible for transporting arms to military zones, but they are not entirely confident about the long-term arms trade, so they came to me, hoping I could recommend one of their members to the Senate."
"But what does this have to do with me?" I was uneasy.
Korialon finally revealed a slightly satisfied smile, "You can give up your seat."
"The leader intends to have you enter the Senate and subsequently make you a senator through public opinion and voting. If you voluntarily give up and recommend the member of the Jane family to the leader, in exchange for benefits, they can have the military zone protect the lives of the two Scott family members."
Before, I thought that this old man just wanted the position of a jury member, but now he wants the position of a senator as well, and he can also win over the Jian family who transports arms.
You have taken all the benefits, and the responsibility of offending the team leader falls on me.
If I were really an idiot, I would have fallen into your trap.
"You, you..." I hesitated, "Is there any other way? If I do this, I will be sorry for the captain's promotion of me."
"You have no way out," said Coria Lun. "You are nothing right now. I can always find someone to replace you and help the leader."
"You want to kill me!" I was so excited that I hugged my lunch box in fear. "Why? Aren't you afraid of being discovered?"
Corey Yalun remained expressionless. "No one will find us. We're well hidden here. And the captain won't take his anger out on me for a lowly individual who could be easily killed."
I was silent, looking at him with my eyes wide open.
After several seconds, I whispered to him, "Let me think about it, okay? I'm so hungry now and want to eat first."
The alpha male's expression, which had been full of oppression just now, suddenly twitched.
But he also knew that he couldn't really push me into a desperate situation, so he nodded.
I gave him a forced smile of gratitude and opened my lunch box.
Almost at the moment it opened, I pounced on him, grabbed his head and pressed it on the table, aiming the needle at his gland!
If I had known there was no surveillance here, would I still let you act like that in front of me?
"It's useless!" Korialun couldn't believe it and struggled to get up, but my hand pressed down on his head again, and at the same time I kicked the communicator to a small corner on the other side.
"Be careful, Mr. Horry," I whispered softly into his ear. "That potion hanging off your gland is no joke."
"What is that?" Coriaron remained calm.
"Gender change potion?" I repeated uncertainly. "It's just a three-in-one product I picked up."
"To ensure you don't become a pathetic omega crawling on the ground, my suggestion is that you answer all my questions carefully from now on. Do you understand?"
"Otherwise, I'll have you change your sex immediately, then take some nice photos and spread them throughout the entire Uptown, so that everyone can see how the high-and-mighty Senator Horry begs others to mark you."
