Because of "hope", the entire Xichuan base changed from its previous dullness and poverty to a prosperous one.
Then, the people next door came to rob.
After making a show of force, Fatty Wu brazenly declared, "Hand over the supplies, or I'll raze the entire Xichuan to the ground!"
The earth element's skill is something like 'Heaven Collapses and Earth Splits'. Of course, there is no sky collapse, but the ground really splits, and there is a large-scale earthquake!
Fatty Wu is a scumbag and is definitely not a good person. He is in cahoots with Huang Jiaojiao. He is using the lives of thousands of ordinary people and millions of Xichuan citizens as bargaining chips to carry out robbery.
Lin Xiaoman just felt that the people of Xichuan were really unlucky. After just a few days of good food, the jackals came.
Either you starve or there’s an earthquake. Oh, how miserable.
When facing scum, never let him go!
So, he pretended to agree to him, and then took advantage of the dark and windy night, Hao Qiong went there, and Fatty Wu was killed.
Facts tell us that no matter who you make enemies with, you should never make an enemy of a highly agile assassin, especially when this assassin has the halo of the protagonist.
The leader, Fatty Wu, was killed. His men were absolutely a mob. When the Bone Dragon rushed over, they immediately surrendered crying for their parents.
The Cang City base next door was taken over directly. After all, the people there are innocent.
Lin Xiaoman didn't care about the internal affairs at all. She just distributed food, rode the bone dragon to kill monsters, and accepted the people's gratitude generously.
Within five days, almost all the known large monster groups in Xichuan were killed, and there were basically no major problems within a hundred kilometers of this area.
When external conflicts are resolved, internal conflicts arise.
Wang Cuiqing's mother, under Hao Qiong's kind words and Chu He's unyielding attitude, always said sincerely, "Mom, I know I was wrong."
Then, Wang Cuiqing rebelled and joined the camp to persuade Lin Xiaoman.
Not only Wang Cuiqing, but everyone around spoke up for Chu He.
Lin Xiaoman could only sigh in his heart. If Liu Ying had not experienced death, but had directly put herself in his shoes and acted as if she had been blessed with a cheat all the way, then Lin Xiaoman believed that Liu Ying would definitely forgive him, and even if she was "reborn", there was a great possibility that Liu Ying would choose to forgive him.
But the fact now is that although Liu Ying can see everything, she is the one who is in control.
No matter how much empathy you have, it is not the same as being there in person. Therefore, Liu Ying is not her, and she is not Liu Ying.
Unfortunately, no one else knew that to them, she was Liu Ying.
That night, after Wang Cuiqing took Chu Binbin away and she and Chu He were the only ones left in the room, Lin Xiaoman knew that this matter had to be resolved.
Review the draft that I had already prepared in my mind.
After a while of silence, Lin Xiaoman was the first to break the silence, "What's the matter?"
"I..." Chu He made a low sigh. He suddenly walked to the wall, put down a keyboard, and knelt straight down. He said in a loud voice, "I was wrong!"
Lin Xiaoman: ...
He actually knelt in front of the keyboard!
She knew without guessing that this must have been Hao Qiong's idea, because Chu He, a straight man, would not be so naive.
"Can you please not be so childish?" Lin Xiaoman held his forehead speechlessly.
"I know it's a bit shameless to ask for your forgiveness like this, but I still shamelessly hope that you can forgive me."
"Forgive me, what do you mean?" Lin Xiaoman's tone was calm, without any ripples, and she acted very well, showing a calm heart after completely letting go. "Can I understand that you are trying to save our marriage?"
"Yes, I hope to be able to save her." If it weren't for the situation, Chu He would not have agreed to marry Huang Jiaojiao, but now everything is resolved. So, of course, he wants to save his wife.
"But you were the one who gave up on our marriage first, weren't you?" Lin Xiaoman asked back, her tone deep and resounding. "No matter what the frustrations and hardships were, giving up is giving up."
"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, but..." Chu He wanted to explain. In his opinion, nothing happened between him and Huang Jiaojiao, and he did not make any irreparable mistakes.
"No buts!" Lin Xiaoman interrupted, his words revealing a sense of sadness that came with the passage of time. "Not everything can be forgiven with just a simple 'I'm sorry'.
If I were just an ordinary Chosen One, if I didn't have the strength, then not only me, but also my mother, my daughter, and my son would die at the hands of them!
And at that time, you who knew nothing, what would you do? For Xichuan City, you would still be with Huang Jiaojiao! With that murderer! "
Although the fact is that the unlucky Chu He died, Lin Xiaoman threw dirty water on him without any psychological burden. Her acting was so profound and she showed the extreme disappointment of a wife in her husband with all her heart.
"Don't say these things didn't happen. Many things can't be treated as if they never happened just because they didn't lead to the worst consequences! Of course, you have your difficulties, and I understand. You did it so that more people in Xichuan could survive. It's undeniable that you are a hero to Xichuan City, and I respect you as a hero. But as a husband and a father, you really disappoint me! I'm so disappointed that I no longer want to have any hope in you!"
After hearing Lin Xiaoman's words, Chu He felt a sweetness surging in his chest, which made him feel a piercing pain. At the same time as the severe pain, the fear of the consequences flooded him like a tide, making him feel suffocated.
Yes, he naively thought of taking them back to Xichuan and settling them down. But what happened? If it weren't for his own strong strength, I'm afraid they would have died.
What right does he have to redeem himself? !
Uncomfortably reaching out to hold onto the wall, Chu He took a long time to suppress the intense pain and suffocation. His voice was struggling, and he could only say one word, "I'm sorry."
"It's okay. You explained at the beginning that being a military wife would be hard. I chose this path myself, so I don't blame you. But now I'm tired, so let it be. We can be comrades, partners, but we won't be husband and wife anymore. Do you understand?"
"I understand." Chu He felt extremely heavy-hearted, and after exhausting all his strength, he slowly nodded. Chu He was not the kind of person who would pester someone, and after saying this, he also deeply realized that Lin Xiaoman had made up her mind.
There's no going back, and it can't be salvaged.
"However, I am me, and the children are children. You are their father after all, and I hope you won't let them down. My mother is old, and I don't want her to worry." Lin Xiaoman's tone softened a bit, "Do you understand what I mean?"
"I understand. I will work hard to be a good father and be filial to my mother so as not to let them down." Having said that, Chu He was not stupid. This meant that she would no longer accept him, but they could be a fake couple.
"That's it then. Put away the keyboard and you sleep on the floor."
"Um."
OK, problem solved.
Lin Xiaoman was in a very relaxed and happy mood.
Although Chu He felt depressed and upset, he was also grateful to God. At least, he was alive, and he was content.
