At the bottom of the projection, a line of small red text slowly scrolled: [Note: Anyone who forges the leader's seal will be punished with the death penalty for treason.]
Luo Ming's knuckles made a crisp sound as he pressed down. The sarcasm from before was still frozen at the corner of his mouth, but his eyes had turned into disbelief and shock.
A thin crack appeared in the glass in his hand, and the iced juice silently seeped out.
Mrs. Luo's teacup stopped at her lips, her elegant smile frozen on her face.
Her well-maintained fingers trembled slightly, causing unnatural ripples in the tea in her cup.
The calmest one was Grandma Luo, if you could ignore the crumpled napkin in her hand.
"Wouldn't the mushrooms strung together by the Federation leader taste even better with a filter added to them?"
"We are truly fortunate to be able to eat the mushrooms that the Federation's top leader gave us today."
Zi Xi blinked and suddenly muttered softly.
"So... I'm not a dangerous person, and I don't want anything from Xixi."
He Lanyuan's voice was deep and clear, yet it sounded particularly solemn in the environment of the Luo family's backyard.
He stood up, his military boots clicking on the soft grass, his figure straight and sharp, his grey-blue eyes gleaming coldly in the starlight.
"I have absolutely no ill intentions towards Xixi."
"I really just... wanted to be good friends with her."
He spoke slowly, each word seemingly calculated precisely.
This statement is true.
But there was one more thing he didn't say.
If the Luo family continues to obstruct him, he is unsure if he will lose control.
His fingertips unconsciously rubbed against the black bracelet on his wrist, the federal leader's authorization device, which was also his weapon.
With just a light press, the entire Luo family manor would be launched into a devastating attack under his control, vanishing without a trace.
"good friend??"
Luo Ming stepped forward, blocking Zi Xi's path. He stood tall and straight, his shoulders taut, like an impenetrable wall, protecting his sister tightly behind him.
"When did the Federation leader need to make friends personally?"
"Or rather... when did the leader ever lack friends?"
He enunciated each word heavily, a subtle, mocking smile playing at the corners of his mouth.
Whether he's a real or fake leader or someone else, you can't scheme against his sister!
He Lanyuan's gaze darkened slightly, and a shadow spread across his eyes, like ink dripping into clear water, instantly creating a gloomy atmosphere.
Kill him.
The thought darted into my mind like a venomous snake, sharp and clear.
Kill this troublesome person.
He wanted to be friends with Xixi so that he wouldn't be stopped anymore.
His fingers unconsciously tightened, his knuckles turning white, and the black bracelet on his wrist sensed his killing intent, faintly glowing red.
With just a thought, the weapon will lock onto this coordinate.
"Brother, move aside, you're blocking my view."
"But Helan... ah, you should call me Helan Yuan, aren't we already friends?"
Zi Xi's voice suddenly rang out from behind.
She peeked out from behind Luo Ming and looked at He Lan Yuan. Her hair was slightly blown up by the evening breeze, and her eyes were filled with pure confusion, like a curious little animal.
Helan Yuan's pupils suddenly contracted. Xi Xi's words were like a bucket of cold water being poured over him, and he could even hear a crackling sound in his mind.
The murderous intent that surged in his heart receded like the tide, leaving only a calm emptiness.
"...Yes, that's right."
He was silent for a moment, his Adam's apple bobbed, and finally he said in a low voice.
He bit those two bytes very lightly, as if afraid of disturbing something.
