Chapter 47: Changing Your Mind
The crowd gathered by the swimming pool gradually became excited, raising their hands high and cheering for something.
"Chief," the man in a suit slowly approached, stopped two meters away from Ye Lingtian, and called in a low voice.
Ye Lingtian turned his head but didn't look at him. He raised his eyebrows and signaled his men to continue.
"The person you've been waiting for has arrived," the subordinate lowered his voice.
The surroundings were noisy and he was far away from Ye Lingtian. Even if he lowered his voice, the Scorpion Girl could still hear it clearly.
Ye Lingtian stroked the gold bracelet on his wrist, without any thought, he directly ordered: "Kill"
The Scorpio girl turned to look at him, but he immediately changed his words: "I almost delayed the time, I will go to receive her in person"
After saying that, Ye Lingtian stood up and left. He seemed to be deliberately avoiding the Scorpion Woman's gaze and soon disappeared from her sight.
The elevator that Xu Jingzhe and Li Beichuan took arrived at the top floor. As soon as the elevator door opened, a familiar face appeared in front of them.
Ye Lingtian fanned the golden jewel fan in his hand with an ambiguous smile on his face. He glanced at the two of them and pretended to meet them by chance: "Aren't these... my wife's two subordinates? I didn't expect to meet them here."
Hearing his words, Li Beichuan couldn't help but frowned. He didn't say his doubts but followed Xu Jingzhe and let Ye Lingtian take them to the swimming pool.
"Who is he?" Li Beichuan asked in a low voice.
"I met him last time in the haunted house. He was with the boss at that time," Xu Jingzhe answered in a low voice, and the next second a glass of red liquor appeared in front of him.
Ye Lingtian had a smile on his face, but veins popped out on his forehead: "You're welcome, have a drink."
Xu Jingzhe took the wine with a smile, but had no intention of drinking it. At this moment, Li Beichuan beside him suddenly pulled his sleeve.
The wine glass in his hand fell to the ground, and the bright red liquid spilled on the ground like a pool of blood.
"We can pour the wine ourselves, no need to trouble you." There was no smile on Li Beichuan's face. He pulled Xu Jingzhe to sit farther away from Ye Lingtian.
"What's wrong?" Xu Jingzhe asked puzzledly.
Li Beichuan's forehead was covered in sweat. He didn't speak until he found a safe place. "Have you forgotten who organized this party?"
"The leader of the Fiery Sunflowers," Xu Jingzhe answered, and a terrifying thought entered his mind: "He is the leader of the Fiery Sunflowers, Ye...Tian?"
"I haven't seen him either, but it should be him." Li Beichuan reached out and patted Xu Jingzhe's shoulder, a little worried: "Strictly speaking, our action this time is in violation of the Scorpion Tail Order. The other party is also the leader of the Lieyanghua. We have no chance of winning."
Looking at Ye Lingtian, who was able to get along with everyone not far away, Xu Jingzhe couldn't help but ask curiously: "Is he really as strong as you think?"
Xu Jingzhe's bold statement made Li Beichuan stunned. After a long while, he finally answered: "The two of us combined cannot defeat the Scorpion Girl who has not yet entered the combat state, while he and the Scorpion Girl can fight for dozens of days without a clear winner."
"He is the one with the closest genetic perfection among all people. His fighting ability is beyond our reach."
Li Beichuan said a lot, trying to make Xu Jingzhe give up, but he just looked at him. After a while, he asked, "If it was your brother who was captured, like now, would you save him?"
"I will. At least they won't betray me and become the running dogs of the upper class." Li Beichuan's answer was very cold, and it touched Xu Jingzhe's heart.
Ali was sent here because of betrayal, and the order was given directly by the Scorpion Woman.
If he chose to save Ali, if he survived by chance, he would not be able to explain to the Scorpion Girl. If he lost, he would be sorry for Yu Qingmeng who was still waiting for him.
"......." Xu Jingzhe stood there, lost in confusion.
He thought for a long time, until his head began to ache, and then he loosened his clenched fists: "This is originally my own business, and there are people waiting for you to come back, you go first."
"What are you talking about? Isn't there anyone waiting for you?" Li Beichuan frowned and resisted the urge to take action.
"It's true that Alie betrayed Scorpion Tail, but he is not only my brother, but also the benefactor who extended a hand to me when I was in danger."
As he was speaking, a beautiful figure suddenly appeared by the swimming pool. The person was tied with an iron chain around the neck and was being roughly dragged to crawl on the ground.
His clothing was very revealing, with only small pieces of fabric covering the small amount of exposed skin.
The gazes of the crowd were like those of tigers and wolves. Their scorching gazes swept across his bronze skin, causing his tears to flow like a broken dam.
Xu Jingzhe pointed at the man, who was none other than A Lie, the protagonist of this fun party. "I really can't go back with a clear conscience."
"Go ahead and tell Mengbao that I'm on a mission and won't be back for a long time."
Li Beichuan glanced at A Lie who was not far away, and sighed softly: "I will convey it"
After saying that, Li Beichuan left without looking back.
Seeing Li Beichuan leave, Xu Jingzhe took a deep breath, turned and walked towards the swimming pool. He slowly took out his weapon from the special space.
The icy cold light was like a meteor in the dark night. Xu Jingzhe held a long spear in his hand, and the red hair behind his head was blown by the breeze, fluttering gently.
The Scorpio woman still sat calmly in an empty corner, tapping the glass lightly with her mechanical fingers. She looked at Xu Jingzhe who was gradually walking towards A Lie, and her hand holding the glass couldn't help but increase the strength.
"You are really not afraid of death. Is he that important?" The Scorpion Woman put the wine glass on the table, slowly stood up and hid behind the crowd and walked in sync with Xu Jingzhe.
Every step Xu Jingzhe took felt like a knife cutting through Yu Qingmeng's fragile heart.
A Lie has done so many evil things, why should he be saved? But there are always fools who will risk their lives for a little bit of brotherhood.
There is always another fool who follows silently out of worry.
Fireworks exploded in the sky, drawing everyone's attention. An unfolded golden jewel fan was moving through the crowd.
The sharp tip flew towards Xu Jingzhe's neck at a rapid speed.
Ye Lingtian had already noticed his movements. At this moment, the smile on his face was gone, replaced only by ruthlessness and murderous intent.
A strong murderous intent enveloped Xu Jingzhe. His body was unable to move, and he seemed to have lost the ability to raise his hands to avoid the attack.
The Scorpion Woman pushed through the crowd, ran over quickly, drew the dagger from her waist and blocked the attack for Xu Jingzhe.
There was no pain in his neck. He slowly opened his eyes, only to see someone who shouldn't be there.
"Boss?" Xu Jingzhe clenched his weapon tightly, his tone tinged with guilt. "Why are you here?"
The scorpion girl grabbed the fan that was still spinning and waved it towards Ye Lingtian: "I have no interest in watching my own people die."
"Why?" Ye Lingtian suddenly asked loudly, his eyes full of complicated emotions.
What he wanted to ask was "Didn't you agree to kill Ali? Why did you suddenly attack again?"
The Scorpio woman lowered her eyes and replied coldly: "No reason, I just suddenly changed my mind."
Ye Lingtian shifted his gaze from the Scorpion Girl to Xu Jingzhe, and he couldn't help but increase the strength of his grip on the golden gem fan.
He couldn't believe that there was a fifth person in this world who could make Yu Qingmeng change her mind.
