Qin Lichang's mood instantly brightened at the mention of this, and he found Wei Qin kneeling on the ground much more pleasing to the eye. "Get up."
"Yes." Wei Qin put his hands on the ground, gritted his teeth and stood up. Because he had been kneeling for too long, he almost knelt down again.
Despite the soreness in her legs, Wei Qin lowered her head slightly and stood beside Qin Lichang.
"By the way, we can't get in touch with the parrots. What's going on with you guys?" Qin Lichang took out a cigarette from his pocket, lit it, and squinted at Wei Qin, who was standing upright in front of him.
“We’re trying to contact the parrot, but there’s no signal at all,” Wei Qin said softly, shaking his head. He seemed to sense the change in Qin Lichang’s mood and his heart skipped a beat. He hesitated for a moment before whispering, “I suspect… the parrot might be dead.”
"Bang—"
With a loud bang, Wei Qin was slammed against the wall. He staggered and finally collapsed to his knees, only able to support himself with his hands to keep from falling.
Blood rushed to his throat and trickled down his chin. Wei Qin's eyes darkened. He lowered his gaze, concealing a glint of light. Damn it, he must have broken about two ribs... He had been trying to be on guard, but he hadn't expected Qin Lichang's current abilities to be so formidable.
"Come here." Qin Lichang impatiently tossed his half-finished cigarette aside, then spat out a curse, "Damn, this is fucking awful."
Wei Qin nodded, then pressed one hand to his chest and walked over with somewhat unsteady steps.
"My lord." Although Wei Qin had tried his best to calm himself down, the pain in his chest had obviously greatly reduced his endurance. He opened his mouth slightly and barely managed to suppress his anger.
"What a bunch of good-for-nothings!" Qin Lichang sneered. The parrot is dead? All the hidden pieces he's laid out for so many years are dead now? Useless, all of them are useless!
Qin Lichang gritted his teeth, a vortex of madness and stubbornness surging in his dark eyes. He would never forget the day that Mu Yanxuan and his men beat him up and drove him out of the military region headquarters. He would never forget the day that he wandered around like a stray dog, destitute and hiding in the Northern Military Region.
What he would never forget was... the arrogant, godlike look in Mu Yanxuan's eyes as he stepped on his head. Mu Yanxuan had tormented all his companions, his family, and his lover to the point of wishing they were dead... ultimately leaving him all alone in this world...
Everyone was fooled by him. Mu Yanxuan is a complete pervert. He's a twisted lunatic!
Qin Lichang took a deep breath, forcibly suppressing the inexplicable fear rising in her heart, and replaced it with a hateful gaze. Mu Yanxuan, I will make you pay back tenfold for everything you have done to me!
"Is there any way to confirm that Mu Yanxuan is dead?" Qin Lichang said coldly.
Wei Qin took a deep breath, looked at the bulging veins on Qin Lichang's hand, and lowered his voice, saying, "Not yet."
"No..." Qin Lichang gritted his teeth, "Send men to the Forbidden Forest. If they find any armed forces that do not belong to us, eliminate them all immediately!"
"Yes." Wei Qin bowed and then forced down the blood that welled up in his throat.
"Get out!" Qin Lichang felt that he was in no good mood at all. As Wei Qin was about to walk out of the room, Qin Lichang paused and suddenly said, "Wait, go and call Secretary Lin here."
"Yes." Wei Qin nodded, then got up and walked out.
Qin Lichang placed her hand on her forehead and quietly emptied her mind.
He remembered that when he was seven years old, he saw his so-called younger brother, Mu Yanxuan, who was only five years old at the time. He was jealous that this guy would take away his mother's love for him, so when they met for the first time, he called his friends to kick Mu Yanxuan into a garbage dump and then set dogs to bite him.
He still feels a sense of satisfaction when he thinks about that guy's tearful and whiny appearance.
Qin Lichang chuckled, then opened her eyes and looked out the window. "Mu Yanxuan, I could kick you into the trash heap before, so I can definitely do it now."
...
"Mu Yanxuan, stop staring at me..." Ji Yueyao took a bite of the compressed biscuit in her mouth and silently looked at Mu Yanxuan. Did this guy have to keep staring at her while she ate this?
Mu Yanxuan withdrew his gaze, looking somewhat disappointed, like a big dog with drooping ears begging for petting.
Why change so quickly? The white ants and the others silently turned their heads away. To be honest, they had been with the general for so many years and were used to his cold face no matter when or where. So, to be honest... they really couldn't accept the general acting cute and charming!
"Uh..." Ji Yueyao felt like she was bullying a mentally challenged child. "Ahem, never mind, do as you please."
Mu Yanxuan's eyes lit up immediately, and she snuggled up to Ji Yueyao, looking quite pleased.
"They're pushing their luck!" Ji Yueyao said helplessly. After they came up, the baiyi and others with the locator quickly found them. Then, the baiyi used its superpower to start healing her wounds. Fortunately, this was no longer a place underground where wounds healed very slowly, and the baiyi healed her wounds without much effort.
Although her injuries have healed, she still feels that something is wrong with her body. She can't quite put her finger on it, but she just feels something is off.
"Ji Yueyao." Mu Yanxuan chuckled and gently ruffled Ji Yueyao's short hair, leaning closer to her intimately. "I love your warmth, I love the feeling of your comfort."
