Lin Luo was startled. Just as she was about to sit up, Xiao Chen gently embraced her in his arms and patted her back.
"Brother, what happened outside?"
"Be good! It's okay, don't be afraid!"
Seeing Xiao Chen's calm face, as if nothing had happened, Lin Luo's panicked heart calmed down. Since her brother said it was okay, then it was okay.
Not long after, Lin Luo fell asleep after being gently coaxed by Xiao Chen.
On the other side, Chu Xuan dealt with Chu Ji and the guards at the door. Hearing the ambiguous noises coming from inside, he sneered and gently opened the door.
A man and a woman were making love on the bed, completely unaware that a third person had entered the room.
“Tsk, that’s wonderful!”
The sudden sound startled the two men and when they saw the dark figure standing in the room, the woman screamed and quickly pulled the quilt over the bed to cover it.
Chu Ji was so frightened that he trembled all over and looked at the person who came in horror.
"Who are you? What do you want to do? Someone come here! Someone come here." Unfortunately, there was no response even though he shouted at the top of his lungs.
Chu Xuan admired the fear on Chu Ji's face. He slowly approached and watched Chu Ji's body retreating. He chuckled and listened to Chu Ji's ears, as if he was a soul-snatching messenger.
"My dear little brother, you can't even recognize your elder brother?"
"Brother?" At this moment, the moonlight poured in, shining on Chu Xuan's handsome face, allowing Chu Ji to see the person clearly.
He pretended to be calm, put on a stiff smile, and spoke in a flattering manner.
"Brother, when did you come back? Why didn't you inform me in advance so that I could go and greet you?"
"Heh~ Did I inform you in advance so that you could send someone to kill me?" Chu Xuan sneered. It was ridiculous that his good brother was still trying to struggle.
Chu Xuan pulled out a dagger and put it against Chu Ji's face, slowly admiring the prey's dying struggle.
"Don't kill me, you can't kill me. If Dad knew, he wouldn't let you go. Don't forget, I'm Dad's favorite son."
A flash of pain flashed through Chu Xuan's eyes, and then he fell silent. There was nothing good to say anymore. In his parents' hearts, he had always been dispensable. No matter how good he was as a child, he could never compare to the son of this mistress, right? Even his beloved mother was forced to death by them.
Chu Xuan stopped talking and, with a twist of his wrist, cut Chu Ji's throat with the dagger. Bright red blood splattered all over the bed. The woman next to him fainted at the sight of this Asura-like scene.
Chu Xuan glanced at the fainted woman, ignored her, turned around and walked out. It was time to meet his nominal mother.
"Young Master Xuan." Zhou Yu stood at the door and looked at Chu Xuan who was coming.
"Where are the people?"
"Inside."
Chu Xuan nodded, opened the door and walked in.
Chu Jin stood inside with his back to Chu Xuan. When he heard the noise, he shouted angrily.
"Rebellious son, do you want to kill me?"
Chu Xuan said calmly, "I won't kill you. Just stay here obediently for the rest of your life."
"Don't worry, I'll find someone to take care of you 24 hours a day."
Chu Jin looked at Chu Xuan in horror, as if he was meeting his son for the first time.
"You want to put me under house arrest? Don't forget, I'm your darling."
"Heh~ I don't have a parent like you. I thought you just didn't love me and mother, but look at the ordinary people out there. They're barely clothed, barely fed. Every day, some die of starvation, exhaustion, or being bitten to death by zombies."
"But what about you? You're only concerned with enjoying yourself, grabbing power, and letting your illegitimate son bully men and women every day at the base. Do you know how many innocent lives have died at his hands?"
"So what? This is the end of the world. The strong rule the world. It's not a pity for ordinary people to die without any ability."
Chu Xuan looked at his father, who still didn't know how to repent. The light in his eyes completely disappeared. He shook his head in disappointment and stopped arguing. He turned and walked towards the door, ignoring the curses coming from behind him.
Everything is over. Starting tomorrow, the base will usher in a new life. He will always keep his original intention and will never degenerate into a fool.
