"Click." There was a light sound in the teahouse, and Lin Guang placed the brewed tea in front of Su Ming'an, his technique was a little awkward:
"We are friends now, right? This is my first time making tea, I hope you can drink it."
Su Mingan looked at the red tea and hesitated for a moment.
In just a moment, Lin Guang's eyes turned gloomy.
Thinking of the experience of having his leg broken by a gunshot in the previous round, Su Mingan reached out his hand and drank the cup of tea: "Lin Guang, promise me one thing."
Lin Guang raised his eyes: "You say."
"Don't launch a nuclear explosion." Su Ming'an said: "Continue to rule over humans and let them live. Watching them struggle is like watching a monkey show."
"They are nothing more than crawling bugs. They won't bring me any happiness." Lin Guang refused decisively: "Besides, you are no longer a threat to me. You can't stop me."
"Stop the nuclear explosion, and I can drink tea with you every day." Su Mingan said.
Lin Guang showed hesitation in his eyes, but he quickly refused again: "No, the nuclear explosion must be launched. You should drink tea with me every day, whether you want to or not."
In an instant, his true colors were revealed. He was extremely selfish in his words and did not give Su Mingan any room for choice.
"..."Su Mingan sneered in his heart and stopped talking.
He lowered his head and began to ignore Lin Guang.
Looking at Su Mingan who remained silent, Lin Guang's face showed anger - he was actually being ignored.
For a moment, he was filled with anger and gloom, and wanted to shoot Su Mingan in the head. But he raised his fingers three times and still couldn't do it.
After taking a deep breath, he calmed down his anger.
"Louis, what exactly do you want?" Lin Guang said.
Su Mingan looked up and looked at him indifferently.
"Why do you want to save humanity?" Lin Guang asked, "They force you, condemn you, and blackmail you. They enjoy the blessings you bring and blame you. They don't know how to work hard, but they can judge you from a high position. A bunch of trash who only know how to enjoy themselves - these people, why do you want to save them? You are even willing to run to me and never get out for the rest of your life. You still want to save them at this price. Why?"
His tone became more and more puzzled: "Why... What can the world give you? Do they deserve you? Do they deserve to be grateful to you?"
He had known for a long time that Lewis did not come to the City of God willingly. In fact, Lewis hated him so much that even a glance from him would be considered charity.
But he felt that as long as today passed, everything would be fine. The bad humans were gone, and was there any place happier and more comfortable than here?
No, not anymore. Lewis will have a more perfect life and future than him.
But Lewis always thought about the people outside, those extremely ugly people.
--Why?
——Are those people worthy?
“…”
Su Mingan said calmly:
"Because I love them."
His expression was not affected by the words, and his tone was extremely cold, as if he was perfunctory. However, Lin Guang felt a special emotion in it for a moment.
He stood up, grabbed Su Mingan's wrist, and blurted out a question that had been buried in his heart for a long time:
"—you said you loved them, but what is 'love'?"
Lin Guang's eyes were blank and confused, like a lake of sorrow buried deep inside: "Louis, what is love?"
"Love is the courage to die for a person, a thing, or even the world," said Su Mingan.
……What?
Lin Guang simply couldn’t understand why Lewis said that love is “dying”?
This was completely different from what Violet had told him about love, and from what he had read in books. He had never heard of love being death.
"For example, I am expressing 'love' to the world right now." Su Ming'an suddenly raised his other hand and pointed it at his own temple: "Lin Guang, stop the nuclear explosion, or I will die here."
He stared at Lin Guang coldly, and acted without hesitation.
Lin Guang frowned, and after a moment, he sneered: "...You dare not."
He didn't believe that Su Ming'an would commit suicide. If Su Ming'an died here, it would have no strategic significance at all, and the army outside would collapse at the first sign of disaster.
"I don't dare?" Su Ming'an smiled faintly, and the next moment, a flash of annihilating black light appeared on his fingers!
“Bang!”
A crisp sound.
Lin Guang suddenly stretched out his hand and pulled away Su Ming'an's hand stained with annihilation. A trace of blood was slowly flowing out from Su Ming'an's temple and dripping onto the table along the side of his face.
The pure white tablecloth was dyed with a gorgeous red color, like a flower gradually blooming in ink.
...Just a little bit!
Lin Guang's pupils constricted - just a little bit! If he had reacted a little slower...
It turns out that Su Mingan is really willing to die! He really dares to threaten with his life - he is much crazier than him!
"You...you..." Lin Guang was almost speechless.
Su Mingan closed his eyes and fell backwards uncontrollably. He was stabbed so hard that even if he didn't die immediately, he would die after a while. He was just gambling - gambling on whether Lin Guang could save him. If he succeeded, then he would have the initial capital to gamble.
A person who is not afraid of death can do a lot of things in the City of God. Even if he fails, he can still roll back, and self-destruction is just zero cost.
Before negotiations, negotiators need the confidence of "equality", otherwise they will just give in again and again.
Before he lost consciousness, he felt someone holding him up.
