Chapter 1282: Spoiling You Without Limits
Her emotions were too agitated, and her eyes were bloodshot.
Everyone was trying to persuade her, telling her that this wouldn't do, that she couldn't be so willful, and that she couldn't go back, as going back would be throwing her life away—only Wang Yong supported her!
"Go back then, I'll go back with you."
Shi Youxuan:...
"Why are you stirring up trouble? Instead of helping to persuade her, you're just making things worse. What's the use of her going back? If it were useful, there would have been no need to escape in the first place."
"If you go back with her and get yourself dragged into this, what about your brother and your tens of thousands of brothers?"
Wang Yong: "Big Sister-in-law, you have many ideas, please think of a way. This girl is in so much pain right now, and I can't bear to watch it."
"A femme fatale." The phrase suddenly popped out of Shi Youxuan's mouth.
She regretted it as soon as she said it; her mouth had been too fast, her brain hadn't kept up, and she wondered why she said just anything.
"What does that mean?"
Wang Yong didn't understand.
Liu Min was crying so sorrowfully that she didn't pay attention to what was said, and of course, even if she had heard it, she might not have understood the meaning of the phrase.
"It means she is your confidante, it's just that her life is too bitter." She gave a random explanation to gloss over it.
In the end, Liu Min still didn't return to the country. The reason was simple: everyone opposed it, and Wang Yong's agreement alone wasn't enough.
These two had the same personality, impulsive and disregarding consequences, but their friends wouldn't just watch them go back to their deaths.
Not being able to go back didn't mean there was nothing Liu Min could do!
She contacted Liu Kai through a special channel.
"Uncle Liu, it's me, Liu Min."
Although they hadn't been separated for many days, hearing Liu Kai's voice again felt like a lifetime ago.
When she was in L Country, she was the Commander, and Liu Kai was the Deputy Commander.
But neither of them felt their relationship was one of superior and subordinate; it was the relationship between an uncle and a niece—they were family!
Her father was gone, and Liu Kai was her only remaining relative.
"Little Min, don't cry. Tell Uncle, are you doing okay now? Where are you?" Within a few days, it seemed as if half of the white hair on Liu Kai's head had grown out, all because of worrying about Liu Min.
Qi Heng told him that Liu Min had committed treason.
He didn't believe it; his intuition told him there must be a hidden story here!
"Uncle, I'm doing well. I'm in Jiangzhou..." She told her uncle everything that had happened in the country from beginning to end, and Qi Heng's true colors were exposed.
"That bastard, I knew he was the one causing trouble. You would absolutely never commit treason."
Liu Kai slammed his fist onto the desk, furious.
His niece told him that the former Commander, her older brother, had also died at Qi Heng's hands, but when she asked him to send troops to attack the Presidential Palace, he fell silent.
Liu Min urged: "Uncle, say something. Do you not agree with doing this?"
Liu Kai answered with great difficulty, but his meaning was very clear: "Yes, I will not attack the Presidential Palace. If I did that, I would be no different from you and your father. I will never betray my country, even though its ruler is a bastard."
She was completely bewildered and tried to persuade him.
But it was of no use; Liu Kai had his own set of principles in his heart and would not be persuaded by anyone.
He stated that he would resign immediately and no longer be used by Qi Heng, but he would absolutely not kill him.
Although Qi Heng was no longer a good person, he was still a good president.
The common people lived and worked in peace and contentment under his leadership, and their standard of living was getting better and better. If he died, L Country would return to a state of instability, and he would not watch that situation happen.
Liu Min was rejected.
He would rather be scolded by others for refusing to help those in danger and disregarding brotherly loyalty than betray his country!
Hanging up the phone, Liu Min's mood hit rock bottom.
She sat on a chair, hugging her knees with both arms, curling herself into a ball, and silently shedding tears without stopping.
No one dared to disturb her. The servants in Wang Yong's house all knew this young lady's temper; when she went crazy, she really hit people, and the average person couldn't handle it.
Wang Yong came over and suggested: "Girl, do you want to go outside and have a fight?"
He knew she was sad inside.
He had heard Liu Min when she was on the phone. He admired Liu Kai and knew he was a man of integrity.
But at the same time, he didn't understand it.
For Wang Yong, loyalty to friends was greater than heaven; everything else was nonsense.
"No." Liu Min shook her head.
Under normal circumstances, having a fight could solve most problems, but today she didn't want to fight; she just wanted to be alone.
Seeing this, Wang Yong also pulled up a chair and sat beside her, mimicking her exact posture.
But the chair was too small for someone of Wang Yong's build!
He couldn't sit properly, so he wobbled, with the possibility of falling off at any moment.
"What are you doing?"
Liu Min raised her head, her face covered in tear tracks, puzzled.
"I'm keeping you company. Whatever you do, I do." He answered as if it were a matter of course.
"Get out, I don't need you to keep me company."
"No, I can't rest easy if I don't stay with you."
She suddenly burst into loud sobs, threw herself into his arms, and cried very loudly and sorrowfully.
She kept pounding his chest with her fists, scolding: "Why are you like this? It's so annoying. Why do you have to be so good to me? Don't be like this, it makes me feel miserable every single moment..."
Wang Yong was at a loss and could only let her pound him.
Liu Min was thinking of her father.
When Liu Quan was alive, he indulged her just like this, without principles and without reason.
It feels so good that someone can still indulge her like this now, but her father is gone forever!
……
The fact that Liu Min contacted Liu Kai to kill him, but was refused by Liu Kai, was soon known by Qi Heng.
He was very happy, overjoyed.
The reason he issued a wanted warrant for Liu Min was, to a large extent, because of Liu Kai.
The reason given for the wanted warrant was that she committed treason, and Liu Kai has zero tolerance for treason.
Although he let Liu Kai serve as Military Region Deputy Commander, he did not completely trust him.
Liu Kai is different from Liu Min; he is a person with real ability. If Liu Kai had ulterior motives, it would be a devastating blow to him.
Qi Heng had people monitor Liu Kai's phone, and he could clearly control all of his contacts with people outside.
Now he is at ease with Liu Kai, which is very good; this counts as one of the few pieces of good news in many days.
But before Qi Heng could be happy for long, Liu Kai sent in a resignation letter!
The reason was that he was getting old, his health was failing, and he could not shoulder such an important job.
An excuse, it was completely an excuse.
He did not agree, firmly refusing to let Liu Kai resign, but he simply left without saying goodbye—taking his family with him!
But he did not take those few extraordinary people with him; he left them behind.
Qi Heng did not send anyone to chase them back; since their hearts were not here, it would be useless even if he chased them back.
The fact that he would only take his family and leave these useful people behind already made his meaning very clear.
Leave the useful people for him, and let him go!
According to the specialties of those few people, Qi Heng placed them all in the most important positions.
Qi Heng kept his word and promoted Zhu Qingrui to Vice President.
As soon as the appointment was announced, the whole country was in an uproar.
Basically, the people of the whole country opposed it, and the reason was very simple.
He had no political achievements, almost no one in L Country had heard of him, and he was barely passable as an Office Director, but as Vice President?
Protests.
A new round of protests began across the country.
