Chapter 110

Ling Jing didn't let go.

He kept his grip on Luo Qilan's neck while slowly turning to face Zhao Huaimin.

A smile slowly crept across his handsome face.

However, this smile carried an unsettling air of roguishness.

Then, right in front of Zhao Huaimin, he directly snapped Luo Qilan's neck with a crisp "crack".

The struggling Luo Qilan instantly dropped her hands and ceased all movement.

Everyone present was startled by Ling Jing's ruthlessness.

That was the base commander's wife, and he just... killed her?

They all held their breath and looked towards Zhao Huaimin.

Sure enough, they saw his face turn ashen, his eyes bulging with rage.

"Ling Jing, do you know what you're doing?!"

Ling Jing nonchalantly dusted off his hands, "Of course I do. Why are you in such a hurry? You're... next."

"What did you say?!"

Zhao Huaimin stared with wide eyes, thinking he must have misheard.

"You've really aged. I spoke so loudly and you still couldn't hear clearly. Since you're old, it's time for you to... die."

Ling Jing pursed his lips, his face full of malice.

"See how nice I am? After how you treated me, I'm still kindly sending your family to reunite?"

Zhao Huaimin: !!

Twenty minutes later.

A car drove away from the lake island.

The bright villa was now filled with corpses...

The sleeping people were unaware that their base commander had silently died.

After this night, the hierarchy of Rongsheng Base was bound to change.

However, none of this mattered to Yun Xiaoxiao and her companion.

"What are your plans now?" Yun Xiaoxiao asked Ling Jing.

Ling Jing stared ahead, his eyes somewhat lost.

"Plans? I haven't thought about it."

After he woke up, his only focus was on revenge.

Now that his revenge was complete, everything else... whatever.

"Can I ask you a question?"

"Hmm?"

"Why did you kidnap me before? What was your purpose?"

"I needed your water. That water can alleviate the restlessness in my heart."

"Is it that simple?"

"What else?"

Yun Xiaoxiao looked at Ling Jing, as if trying to judge the truthfulness of his words.

"Let's go, I'll take you back to the hospital."

"Don't you need my water?"

"Leave if you don't want to die."

Yun Xiaoxiao slightly raised her chin, expressionless.

Long Zhe looked at Yun Xiaoxiao in shock.

It's her!

"You little bitch, who do you think you are, threatening us! You're asking for death!"

One of them, face dark with anger, swung a fist at Yun Xiaoxiao.

But before his hand could touch her, Yun Xiaoxiao spun and kicked him, sending him flying.

"Ouch!"

He fell to the ground, grimacing in pain.

With two of them taken down by Yun Xiaoxiao in quick succession, the others suddenly didn't dare to move.

"Are you going to leave, or do you want to taste my fists?"

Yun Xiaoxiao raised her small fist.

A look of fear flashed in their eyes, and they ran away, scared out of their wits.

"Ache, are you alright?"

Suddenly, a voice full of concern came from not far away.

"Brother, brother!"

Along with two anxious children's voices.

Yun Xiaoxiao looked in that direction and saw Zhang Xiuyan leading two small children hurrying over.

Long Zhe stood up from the ground, shaking his head.

"I'm fine, it's just... this is the only breakfast left for today."

Long Zhe's mood was a bit low.

Zhang Xiuyan sighed, patting his shoulder.

"It's okay, I'm not hungry. This is for you all to eat. You're still growing and can't go hungry."

"No, I won't eat it. I'm not hungry. Aunt Zhang, you didn't eat last night, you must eat something today."

Long Zhe's brows furrowed, showing both defiance and a hint of self-reproach.

It was all because he couldn't protect the food that everyone had to go hungry.

Yun Xiaoxiao looked over the group.

They were much thinner than when she had seen them at the dog farm.

They all looked haggard.

Their clothes were tattered and dirty.

It was evident that they hadn't been living well since coming to Rongsheng Base.

"Oh! Girl, it's you! You've come to Rongsheng Base too?"

Zhang Xiuyan looked at Yun Xiaoxiao, her eyes full of pleasant surprise.

"Mm, just passing through. By the way, little brother, why were those people beating you?"

Yun Xiaoxiao turned to Long Zhe.

Long Zhe lowered his head, "They're the local thugs here, always causing trouble and stealing other people's food.

I was just unlucky today, running into them right after getting my rations.

They chased me down and took the buns I was carrying. If I hadn't protected this one, they would have taken it too."
