As soon as Liu Changqing finished speaking, Chu Yunxiao exuded a chilling aura, his eyes flashing with a sharp, cold light, like blades shooting towards Liu Changqing, locking him tightly in his gaze.
Everyone present held their breath, and the atmosphere suddenly became heavy.
Under Chu Yunxiao's cold gaze, Liu Changqing's body stiffened slightly, then he calmly looked back at Chu Yunxiao and gave him a wicked smile, "Chu Yunxiao, this is not the capital, this is the apocalypse. We are all on the same starting line. I am not afraid of you."
Chu Yunxiao's lips curled slightly, and he said coldly, "You're welcome to try."
Liu Changqing clapped his hands, and his men immediately surrounded Chu Yunxiao, Liu Anran, and Yunlong, pointing their guns at them.
Liu Anran had never seen anything like this before, and she was completely stunned!
Liu Changqing looked at Liu Anran and said, "I won't make things difficult for you. The woman stays, but you can take the child."
Liu Anran looked at the large group of people surrounding them. No matter how powerful Chu Yunxiao was, he couldn't handle so many people on his own!
Liu Anran placed Yunlong in Chu Yunxiao's arms. The whole thing started because of her, and she couldn't implicate Chu Yunxiao, nor could she watch Yunlong die before her eyes.
Chu Yunxiao's body stiffened, and he didn't dare to move his hand holding Yunlong. He had never held a child before!
Yunlong, nestled in Chu Yunxiao's arms, felt as if he were dreaming. Not only had he found his father, but he was also being held in his father's arms.
Looking at Chu Yunxiao's handsome face, Liu Anran thought, "He's really good-looking; no wonder he's the male protagonist in the author's novel."
Chu Yunxiao looked somewhat uncomfortable under Liu Anran's gaze.
"What, you don't recognize me!"
Liu Anran said, "Such a handsome face, it's hard to forget. Luckily, I'm good-looking myself, otherwise I would feel ashamed in front of your face."
Even if it was just a one-night stand, even if four years had passed, the original owner still remembered Chu Yunxiao in her heart, and she would never forget him even if she saw him.
Chu Yunxiao was taken aback by Liu Anran's words and asked speechlessly, "Are you praising me or yourself?"
“Yes, we have them all,” Liu Anran said.
Chu Yunxiao chuckled to himself.
Liu Changqing's face showed displeasure. These two were flirting and joking in front of him. Weren't they taking him too lightly?
Liu Anran patted Yunlong's head and said to Chu Yunxiao, "If it really doesn't work out, I'll stay. You take Yunlong with you and go. Treat him well from now on."
Upon hearing this, Yunlong stared wide-eyed at Liu Anran, "Mom, you said you wouldn't leave me."
“Mom is only leaving you temporarily. You must listen to Dad from now on,” Liu Anran said.
"I don't want to!" Yunlong refused.
Chu Yunxiao was a little angry and stared at Liu Anran, asking, "You don't believe in my abilities?"
Liu Anran shook her head and sighed, "No, I have great faith in your abilities, but one hand can't fight four. We are outnumbered and outmatched. Why should we fight to the death with Liu Changqing? Besides, Yunlong is still so young. I don't want anything to happen to him."
The male protagonist is certainly powerful, but no matter how powerful he is, he is not a god, and the other party also has a gun.
Liu Changqing laughed smugly, "Chu Yunxiao, your woman knows better than you do."
Liu Anran used to worry about Yunlong, but now that Yunlong has Chu Yunxiao taking care of him, and the female lead no longer has her space, she can't cause any big trouble. Yunlong has his space and the Concentration Technique. Just because of Yunlong's value, Chu Yunxiao will treat him well.
Liu Anran didn't belong to this world to begin with, and she was already able to face life and death with equanimity. She looked at Liu Changqing calmly and smiled gently: "Did you misunderstand? When did I agree to stay and accompany you?"
"Woman, you've gone back on your word!" Liu Changqing said angrily.
"I didn't go back on my word. I said that as long as you release Yunlong, everything is negotiable." As Liu Anran spoke, a thin golden dagger slowly materialized in her hand.
Someone exclaimed, "A superpower! A metal-type superpower user!"
Chu Yunxiao and Liu Changqing were also surprised to find that Liu Anran was a metal-type ability user.
"I really don't know what you see in me, it's nothing more than my face." Liu Anran said, making a cut on her face, blood seeping from the wound and flowing down her cheek.
"Mom, Mom!" Yunlong cried out in fear.
Chu Yunxiao and Liu Changqing were both dumbfounded.
Appearance is so important to a woman, and this woman made the decision to have it done without hesitation, catching them completely off guard.
Yunlong slapped Chu Yunxiao and cried, "Aren't you very powerful? Why can't you protect Mom? Why?"
Chu Yunxiao was also angry, glaring at Liu Changqing with a furious expression. "Can we leave now?"
Looking at the hideous wound on Liu Anran's beautiful face, Liu Changqing couldn't help but ask, "Is Chu Yunxiao really that good?"
Blood seeped from the wound on her face, flowing down her cheek. Liu Anran wiped it away, her hand stained with blood. In the apocalypse, her beautiful appearance was a burden. She had ruined it right in front of Chu Yunxiao, making him feel guilty. Even if he married the female lead in the future, he would treat Yunlong better.
Chu Tianxiao glanced at the blood on Liu Anran's hand, his eyes flashed for a moment, and then he lowered his gaze.
Liu Changqing's brows furrowed almost imperceptibly.
Liu Anran looked at Liu Changqing and asked in return, "He is the father of my child. Do you think he is a good person?"
Liu Changqing raised an eyebrow and asked, "Just because he's not the father of your child, does that mean he's no good?"
Thinking of Chu Yunxiao letting the female lead kill Yunlong, Liu Anran replied coldly, "He should be a little bit better than you."
She didn't say the words "they're all worthless".
Upon hearing Liu Anran's words, Liu Changqing burst into laughter and pointed at Chu Yunxiao, saying, "Chu Yunxiao, you're nothing special."
Chu Yunxiao, with a cold face, ignored Liu Changqing and looked at Liu Anran, saying, "Follow me." Then he picked up Yunlong and left.
Liu Anran quickly grabbed her backpack from the car and jogged to catch up with Chu Yunxiao.
Liu Changqing knew that Chu Yunxiao wouldn't impulsively come to rescue people alone; he must have made some arrangements. Perhaps Chu Yunxiao's men were watching from the shadows. Therefore, he didn't stop Chu Yunxiao from leaving with Liu Anran and Yunlong.
Watching Liu Anran's retreating figure, Liu Changqing called out to her, "If Chu Yunxiao dislikes you, come find me. I won't mistreat you."
Chu Yunxiao paused slightly, his whole body radiating coldness, and a hint of anger appeared on his face.
Liu Changqing actually tried to steal his girlfriend right in front of him. He must teach that bastard a lesson when he gets the chance.
Liu Anran didn't take Liu Changqing's words to heart. She just wanted to live well with Yunlong. Let the male lead, villain, and male supporting character be left to the female lead and the other female supporting characters! She didn't want to provoke any of them.
Liu Anran hadn't walked far with Chu Yunxiao when she saw seven or eight people surround her, looking at Chu Yunxiao in surprise, "You're not alone?"
Chu Yunxiao retorted, "Am I a person?"
Liu Anran then asked, "Then why did you go to rescue me and Yunlong alone?"
Chu Yunxiao frowned as he looked at the unsightly injury on Liu Anran's face and said, "I have my own plans. It's you who don't believe in my abilities."
Liu Anran was speechless.
An Qiao looked at the injury on Liu Anran's face with a gloating smile and said sarcastically, "So ugly!"
A cold smile crept onto Liu Anran's lips. She took out a dagger, twirled it in her hand, and walked towards An Qiao. As soon as she got close, she swiftly pressed the dagger against An Qiao's face and sneered, "I don't mind slashing your face too, so you can be ugly with me."
A flicker of fear crossed An Qiao's eyes, but she forced herself to say, "You dare!"
Liu Anran patted An Qiao's face with the dagger, gave her a wicked smile, "I really dare to do this, but I'm too scornful. If you talk nonsense again, I'll cut your tongue out." After saying that, she kicked An Qiao away with a side kick.
She's making an example of someone today to deter others from gossiping later.
Chu Yunxiao raised his eyebrows slightly, and a smile appeared in his eyes, which shone like stars. This woman was using An Qiao to establish her authority.
Chen Biao and Liu Xiong watched as Liu Anran kicked An Qiao away, and Chu Yunxiao didn't say a word of criticism. They exchanged a glance, thinking that Liu Anran's status had risen because of her son, and they should be more polite to her in the future.
