Chapter 69: Shura Field (Part 1)
After Zongfang appeared, he was attacked by Luka and Laiboli almost the next second. He threw Ka'er to the ground and became locked in a fierce battle with the other two. Having lost his self-healing talent, Zongfang was almost evenly matched with Luka, and with the addition of Laiboli, he was struggling somewhat.
Sang Yan didn't join in; his gaze immediately rested on Qiao Suisui, who had appeared with Zongfang.
"Are you okay?"
He looked her over from head to toe several times. A Yao and Gaimailun also gathered around; Gaimailun was shouting and vividly telling her about what happened after she disappeared, while A Yao stood silently to the side, using his burly body to block Qiao Suisui to prevent her from being accidentally injured by the battlefield nearby.
Sang Yan kept watching her, and seeing that she didn't seem to have much energy, he stopped Gaimailun from talking endlessly.
"She must be very tired, let her rest first."
Qiao Suisui gave him a grateful look, then walked two steps out and said to the three who had temporarily stopped fighting: "I have something I want to tell you."
Luka looked at Qiao Suisui; his intuition told him that she seemed to have changed somewhere. Not in appearance, but in her heart.
Laiboli had already walked over first to take her hand, "Let's go back to the Huangting first."
Although Qiao Suisui didn't pull her hand away, she just let him hold it without moving. She said calmly: "Ashi, let's talk right here."
Laiboli was stunned, his brows furrowed, a bad premonition arising. He just wanted to open his mouth to coax her, but saw Zongfang walk over and stand on her other side, reaching out to interlock his fingers with hers, announcing naked possession, and Qiao Suisui didn't resist.
Laiboli's face darkened instantly.
Luka also looked at their interlocked hands, his light golden pupils becoming deep.
Gaimailun was eager to follow, but was pulled back by Sang Yan.
Sang Yan said: "Go back to your rooms."
Gaimailun said: "Brother Yan, aren't you anxious? Don't you want to know what they are going to talk about?"
A Yao also looked at Sang Yan, only to see the latter look deeply in that direction, then say: "Give her some space, don't crowd her. She looks very tired."
With Sang Yan having spoken, Gaimailun and A Yao had no choice but to return to their rooms, incidentally taking the snow leopard Ka'er with them to be treated.
Suddenly, only Qiao Suisui and the three men remained on the first floor.
"Sui Sui, are you hurt?" Laiboli held her hand and tried to pull her into his arms, but saw the man on the other side pulling her and not letting go.
Qiao Suisui was caught between the two, closing her eyes in exhaustion.
"Both of you, let me go."
The two men looked at each other, seeing cold killing intent in each other's eyes, but neither moved.
Seeing this, Luka walked over and pulled her hand away from the two. He looked down at her and asked in a low voice: "What do you want to say?"
"I want to go to school."
All three men were stunned.
"Sui Sui, what do you want to learn? I'll call people to the Huangting, and from now on, they will be responsible only for serving you." Laiboli still hadn't given up on letting her return to the Huangting.
Zongfang's eyes flashed with contemplation, but he didn't speak.
Luka asked: "Why do you want to go to school?"
Qiao Suisui said: "I have mental power now. Although it's only C-rank, there are many things I need to learn."
For example, how to use mental power to control weapons, how to defend, how to improve her mental power, etc. Most importantly, she needed to socialize. Being protected by them every day and only being able to see what was happening in the world through the Star Network, she knew nothing about the outside world. It couldn't be denied that Ka'er's words had indeed stimulated her.
Luka said: "This is not an easy thing. I'm afraid your body won't be able to handle it. If you want to learn, I can teach you."
Qiao Suisui smiled at him and shook her head, saying: "It is my honor to be taught by Colonel Sikesaisi, who is known as the 'Sword of the Empire,' but I want to go to school."
Luka was clearly the one who understood her best among the three, knowing that since she said this, she had already made up her mind, so he didn't rush to refute her. However, Laiboli's emotions had been on the verge of exploding the second he saw her appear holding hands with Zongfang. He had endured and endured for her, but upon hearing that she didn't seem to intend to return to the Huangting with him at all, he finally couldn't hold it together.
"We'll discuss this later. I'm taking you away now."
He stepped forward to force her away, Luka frowned and wanted to stop him, but Zongfang had already attacked him first.
Zongfang stared coldly at Laiboli, "Are you deaf? She said she wants to go to school."
Laiboli only looked at Qiao Suisui, his speaking speed faster than usual, the question he asked feeling like he was gouging his own heart.
"Are you with him?"
Luka also looked at Qiao Suisui, waiting for her answer. Although he didn't look as agitated as Laiboli, he was also very uncomfortable inside, just habitually suppressing and restraining his emotions.
Previously, Qiao Suisui had never explicitly said she was with anyone. Even with Luka, it was only after giving birth to his cubs that they tacitly agreed to raise them together, and they became intimate. Luka also tacitly never mentioned it because he didn't want to put pressure on her.
Laiboli felt that this wasn't right precisely because he had observed the way Luka and she interacted, so he insisted on a title. This was also why he insisted that Qiao Suisui return to the Huangting, because as soon as she went back, she would find that Laiboli had long been secretly preparing a grand mating ceremony, intending to give her a surprise.
Qiao Suisui knew she couldn't hide this time, so she got straight to the point: "Yes. I'm pregnant with Zongfang's child."
Laiboli's face looked like an overturned palette, his expression changing constantly, low pressure surrounding him. Luka wasn't doing much better; his chest heaved slightly, and his golden pupils became bottomless in an instant.
"So, Sui Sui, are you telling me now that you intend to make him your spouse?"
Laiboli gave a self-deprecating smile. He really wanted to cut open her body to see what her heart was made of, but he knew he couldn't bear to, and even his questioning at this moment felt weak.
Zongfang couldn't suppress the smile at the corner of his mouth. He was just about to take over the conversation so she wouldn't have to face it alone, when he heard Qiao Suisui deny it: "No. I don't intend to mate with anyone."
Zongfang's smile froze on his face.
Qiao Suisui didn't look at him either, just calmly announced to the three: "I intend to live here. After resting for two days, I'll see if there's a school that can accept me."
After speaking, she indicated she was tired and walked toward the second floor. Zongfang would no longer imprison her at every turn, so returning to the Huangting was unnecessary.
Qiao Suisui displayed an uncharacteristic strength. Although she was still soft and her volume wasn't loud when she spoke, it made the three men feel that she was different from before.
Luka walked out without a word and asked a guard for a cigarette, which he lit.
Laiboli was still digesting what Qiao Suisui had just said... The words "not considering mating" made him even more distraught than hearing her say she was with Zongfang.
And Zongfang, with red eyes, had already chased after her. He grabbed Qiao Suisui's arm to force her to face him, and when he saw her losing her balance, he supported her waist and blocked her on the stairs.
"Explain yourself clearly to me, what do you mean you don't intend to mate with anyone?" ===== CHAPTER 70 =====
