"What..." Butterfly looked at the man in front of her in disbelief.
“Actually,” the bearded man said in a deep voice, “I wasn’t attracted to you at first sight.”
The butterfly stared at him blankly.
"You may have forgotten that ten years ago, when you were traveling in Serbia, you bought a steak for a beggar on the street." The bearded man looked at her gravely and said, "To you, it was just a simple steak, but to me, that meal saved my life. If it weren't for that steak, I would have starved to death long ago."
The butterfly stared at him in astonishment.
"So later, when you and that scum were captured at sea by my men, I recognized you immediately. Later, I found out that the scum wanted to kill you and frame us, so I killed him. Originally, I planned to let you go, but I didn't expect you to be willing to stay by my side." The bearded man chuckled self-deprecatingly and said, "At that time, I was just an unknown pirate, knowing that I was not good enough for you, but in order to give you a better life, I vowed to make my business bigger and stronger. As a result, I became one of the top assassins on the assassin ranking list, and I also became the overlord of the sea."
“I was going to continue being a pirate, but then you told me you were pregnant with my child,” the bearded man chuckled self-deprecatingly. “I felt I couldn’t keep fighting for the sake of the child. I wanted to do some good for the baby. I’ve already laundered some of my businesses, and I was planning to quit after this one job, but I never expected…”
At this moment, blood kept gushing out of Butterfly's chest. The bearded man found some wound medicine, sprinkled it on the wound on her chest, and tore off a strip of cloth from his body to bandage her up.
"You saved my life before, and now you almost killed me. We are even now." The bearded man said coldly, then looked at his men beside him, "Now, it's time to settle our accounts..."
[That bearded man is so affectionate! He's the most affectionate pirate king ever!]
[I never imagined that such a tender heart was hidden beneath his rugged exterior!]
[Wow, is this really not a script? I have to say, isn't this much better than a TV drama?]
The pirate lady's taste in men is truly terrible. She was terrible at choosing her ex-husband, and now she's terrible at choosing her lover. She must be regretting this now...
At this time, Butterfly looked at the bearded man with eyes full of guilt.
She didn't know... she didn't know that this man had sacrificed so much for her.
She was completely unaware of the truth...
It turns out that her revenge all these years has been so ridiculous!
At this moment, the injured hand of the bearded man was bleeding profusely, the blood dripping and splattering on the ground.
His wild, muscular body was approaching the man kneeling on the ground.
"Brother... I already know I was wrong, but you still won't let me go..." The man kneeling on the ground trembled.
"What I hate most is a traitor!" the bearded man gritted his teeth and said coldly, then he swung his fist hard at the man's face—
This time, the man skillfully dodged it.
Ma Zi stood up, his narrow eyes turning sharp and cold. He raised his lips in a wicked smile, "Since that's the case, let's see if you die or I die tonight!"
As he spoke, Ma Zi stood up and quickly assumed a defensive and offensive stance.
Su Jiu: "Wow. Fight, fight."
Shen Mochen looked at Su Jiu with gentle eyes.
She's so cute.
[Hahaha, Su Jiu is just like me, the one watching the drama unfold!]
[Shen Mochen's gaze towards Su Jiu is so sweet! It's almost saccharine! If you ask me, if Shen Mochen didn't like Su Jiu, I'd rip my head off and let the netizens kick it.]
[Yeah, yeah! Our Su Cheng CP is the sweetest! I'm smiling like a doting auntie in front of the screen, hahaha.]
Su Jiu watched as the bearded man and the pockmarked man got entangled and wrestled together.
She found a small stool and handed one to Shen Mochen, saying, "Sit down and have some watermelon."
Shen Mocheng: "...Okay."
And so, the two of them sat on small stools watching the bearded man and the pockmarked man wrestle and fight.
"It would be even better if we both had some sunflower seeds in our hands right now," Su Jiu said with a hint of regret.
“Yes,” Shen Mochen said, “another bottle of Coke or mineral water would be nice too.”
[No, are you two being polite?]
[Su Jiu and Shen Mochen are watching like spectators at a boxing match; you two are the ones who've been kidnapped!]
[Who's the kidnapper and who's the hostage?!]
[Su Jiu's mental state is just like mine.]
At this moment, Su Jiu and Shen Mochen watched with great interest as the two big men, with the bushy beard and the pockmarked face, wrestled and twisted together like a pretzel.
The bearded man's skin was a healthy bronze color, and he was very muscular, exuding both strength and explosiveness. In contrast, the man with pockmarks was thinner and was completely overwhelmed by the bearded man, who was pinning him to the ground and beating him up.
Just as the bearded man put a chokehold on the pockmarked man, preparing to strangle him with the bulging muscles in his arm and kill him instantly, his arm suddenly lost its strength, and a sharp pain surged through his entire body, as if his internal organs were being twisted together!
[Hey? What's wrong with that big, bearded guy? Something doesn't look right!]
[Yes, I noticed his expression suddenly turned very painful. Did he eat something bad and get diarrhea?]
[No! Don't let me down at the crucial moment!]
It was at this moment that Ma Zi seized the opportunity, bent his elbow, and punched the bearded man hard in the stomach!
The bearded man staggered back several steps, his face contorted in pain.
"You... what's wrong with you..." Butterfly clutched the wound on her chest, struggling to crawl towards it—
Su Jiu, who was sitting on a stool eating melon seeds, suddenly realized, "I understand! This knife is poisoned! The bearded man was stabbed just now, and the poison has already seeped into his body!"
Butterfly stared blankly at the bearded man, then stared incredulously at the pockmarked man. At this moment, she realized that something was wrong. In addition to the pain from the knife wound in her chest, she also felt a sharp, excruciating pain in her chest!
She was about to say something when she spat out a mouthful of black blood!
[OMG, no poison, no man! This guy is ruthless! That's a double kill!]
[No, it's not a double kill, it's a triple kill! This woman is pregnant!]
[That's too cruel! This woman is pregnant with his child, and he can be so heartless to his own child!]
[In comparison, the bearded man was more merciful; at least his wife betrayed him and tried to kill him, but he never intended to kill her! The God of Pure Love collapsed to the ground!]
At this moment, Ma Zi let out a ferocious laugh, "Boss, you don't know, do you? I've been waiting for this day for far too long!"
