Chapter 173

Laiboli and Luka couldn't get away for the time being, and could only follow after dealing with the matters at hand. Zongfang would not leave her for half a step no matter what, so there was no suspense, he would definitely take her away together. The Freedom Alliance was out of Laiboli's domain, he had to send people there in advance to handle things. It would be easier with Sang Yan there, after all, that was the place where he grew up, so Sang Yan would also go to the Freedom Alliance with Qiao Suisui. Needless to say, Ka'er, it was very convenient to go anywhere with him. Coupled with the fact that he was wanted by the Scavenger because of his unexplained disappearance, fortunately, he had transferred his assets to Qiao Suisui without leaving a trace in advance.

"Sikesaisi, what are you thinking about?" Laiboli saw Luka was a little distracted and asked.

"I'm worried she might not be willing to leave," Luka said.

Ka'er didn't understand: "No way, just tell her to go there to hold a ceremony and relax by the way."

Zongfang said: "Anubis's whereabouts have not been found. She doesn't say it usually, but she hasn't been sleeping well at night recently because of this. Now if she is asked to leave, she might not be willing."

Luka nodded.

Laiboli pondered for a while and asked: "There has been no news until now, is it possible that he has been..."

Luka reached out to stop him from continuing. He closed the door, lit a cigarette, and said: "Actually, there was news two days ago. The Federation arrested a group of people. I don't know where they are locked up, but according to the people I infiltrated, the place where they are held has a very high security level, and the defense system is also the most advanced."

Zongfang frowned, looked at Ka'er, and said at the same time: "Difficult, have they started experimenting again?"

Laiboli looked serious, nodded and said: "I can't reach the core high-level of the Federation, but I have probed the tone of some of their subordinates. They have recently been studying a potion to solve the rampage of beastmen."

"If he is caught, he is the best experimental subject for the Federation," Zongfang said coldly.

Ka'er asked: "Why?"

"Because the rampage gene in his body was solved by my blood. The Federation must be very curious about what made him transform."

"In that case, isn't that kid very dangerous? Then should we tell Sui Sui...?" Ka'er said, and then stopped. His brows were squeezed into a "chuan" shape, and he already had the answer in his heart.

"She is pregnant now, and her body is not comfortable. Do you want her to be worried all the time?" Laiboli crossed his hands and said steadily: "Sikesaisi and I will observe the situation there. If there is a chance, we will rescue Anubis. It's just that no one can say for sure about this matter. It's possible he is already dead, it's possible he will be disabled after being rescued. If lucky, we can return an Anubis who is the same as before, but you know how high this probability is. If you think we should tell her now, just state your position."

Zongfang's expression was as cold as ever. He was unconcerned about everything except Qiao Suisui. If it weren't for fear that she would blame him for not saving Anubis in the future, Zongfang wouldn't want to care at all. "I won't say it."

Ka'er scratched the place where his eyebrow piercing was, smiled apologetically, and spread his hands: "I don't know anything, I'm just an unemployed snow leopard."

This meant he wouldn't say it either.

Laiboli looked at Luka again, seeing the cigarette between his fingers had burned to the end, and the ash fell on the table, but he only took one puff from beginning to end. Laiboli asked again: "Sikesaisi, how about you?"

Luka thought deeply, pressed the cigarette into the ashtray, got up and said: "You take her to the Freedom Alliance first, and tell her slowly after her body is better."

"That is not to say," Laiboli concluded.

Luka's expression was complex, a flash of struggle crossed his face, but he didn't refute Laiboli in the end. So the four men reached a consensus and decided not to tell her about the cruelty Anubis was likely to encounter for the time being.

When the four were discussing in the meeting room, on the other side, Sang Yan was guarding Qiao Suisui.

The man who had been sitting on the chair by the bed saw her wake up, immediately stepped forward to help her pad the pillow under her waist, and padded two more behind her back and neck, letting her lean comfortably.

"Are you still uncomfortable?" Qiao Suisui rubbed her eyes and said: "Much better, thank you."

Sang Yan handed her a glass of warm water again, watched her drink it, and then said: "Do you often say thank you to them too?"

Qiao Suisui was slightly startled, a little unresponsive, and answered: "I don't with them."

Sang Yan lowered his eyes, paused for a few seconds, and then said "Hmm".

Seeing the man's disappointed expression, Qiao Suisui pursed her lips, grabbed his hem and asked: "If you don't like it, I'll change to another way to express it when I want to thank you in the future, how about it?"

Sang Yan looked at her straightly and asked: "Like what?"

He watched her tilt her head and rack her brains, her bright eyes adding a bit of coquettishness to her. Sang Yan couldn't help but recall the heartbeat of the day he first saw her. At that time, she was also pregnant, hiding behind the door and looking at him with those beautiful eyes.

"I have it!" Qiao Suisui lifted the quilt and got out of bed. Sang Yan hurriedly supported her. She was wearing a long dress that dragged on the floor today. Sang Yan helped her carry the skirt tail behind her.

Qiao Suisui rummaged through her dressing table and found several necklaces. They were all specially sent to her by other member states to show friendliness, emeralds, red obsidian, anyway, all kinds of shiny things.

She held a full arms, smiled at Sang Yan and said: "I saw that your box was full of gems before, you like to collect these, right? In the future, when I want to say thank you to you, I will give you gems!"

Sang Yan looked at those shining gems and felt that they were not as good as her bright eyes at this moment.

He took a step forward, couldn't help but gently hold her wrist, and asked: "Do you know what it means to give these things to the Dragon Clan?"

"What?"

Sang Yan's Adam's apple rolled up and down. His eyes were panicked and serious. His fingertips touched her skin, and he couldn't help but rub it gently.

As an ancient race that has guarded the Shoushen for generations, the Dragon Clan has always occupied the territory of the Freedom Alliance. The birth of every dragon is extremely precious, symbolizing the inheritance of the Shoushen's messengers from generation to generation. As messengers, dragons not only guard the Shoushen but also guard faith, so the local residents also respect the Dragon Clan very much, and every year they will offer the females who have finally hatched to the Dragon Clan.

And the ritual of offering is to let the female lie in a flower boat, and the female will hold a gem in her mouth. Because gems are rare and expensive, and not easily obtained by ordinary families, this also represents the determination of willingness, meaning she is willing to become the dragon's bride.

Qiao Suisui didn't know this custom, and of course, she didn't know that her behavior of holding a full arms of gems at this moment was no different from proposing to Sang Yan.

Sang Yan also knew this. He suppressed the surging emotions in his heart, slowly withdrew his hand, and his lowered fingertips lingeringly rubbed her body temperature.

He shouldn't hope for more.

As long as she is good, as long as she is happy, nothing else matters.

Sang Yan sorted out his mood, smiled and said: "It means the Dragon Clan will satisfy your wish. You have so many gems, it seems I can satisfy many of your wishes."
