I pressed Zhang Yinuo fiercely and roared at her: \"Don't force me, believe it or not, I'll sleep with you now, tell me quickly where your brother is!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Yinuo lay on the bed with tears in her eyes, didn't move, didn't struggle, looked at me and murmured: \"I know Zhang Longtao is sorry for you. If this can reduce your pain, I don't mind!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing this, I became even more angry and cursed: \"Are you trying to hold on for your brother?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"I really don't know where my brother is!\" Zhang Yinuo said this and didn't intend to explain more, lying on the bed as if she had accepted her fate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I was so angry that I tore off her coat. Zhang Yinuo was wearing pink underwear inside, and her skin was tender. However, I didn't have any intention of appreciating it at this time. I pressed her directly on the bed and, learning from the movies, kissed her face repeatedly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I lifted my head, looked at Zhang Yinuo, and finally said: \"I'll give you one last chance, where exactly is your brother?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Yinuo looked at me and said calmly: \"This matter of Su Xueyan really has nothing to do with me from beginning to end. I know you are struggling and painful in your heart now. If bullying me and taking revenge on me can make you feel better, I don't mind. But I'm afraid you will regret it later. Although Zhang Longtao didn't do the right thing, are you doing the right thing now?\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It has nothing to do with you? It has nothing to do with you, then why did you ask me to eat that day, and why didn't you say anything when eating?\" I roared, my voice already slightly hoarse.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Because I like you!\" Zhang Yinuo's sudden words stunned me.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I looked at Zhang Yinuo lying on the bed in disbelief, unable to believe it was true, feeling that Zhang Yinuo was lying to me. How could anyone like someone like me? It wasn't out of inferiority, but I really felt that I wasn't worthy of anyone.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Actually, I liked you a long time ago. Do you remember? One winter a few years ago, I was walking on the side of the road and was suddenly bullied by a few people. You appeared in front of me and saved me. Since then, your shadow has always been in my heart. Once I went to Zhang Longtao's place and suddenly saw you. I was very happy and wanted to ask Zhang Longtao about you, but I never had the chance. Zhang Longtao is usually quite busy and doesn't go home much, and I don't want to go to his place. However, some time ago, you suddenly appeared at school, and I felt that this might be a gift from heaven, a fate given to me!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Yinuo cried and continued: \"At that time, I approached you and tutored you. Originally, I asked you to eat that day, wanting to confess to you. But when school was over, I found you with that girl. Although you seemed to be arguing at the time, I knew you liked her, and she also liked you. I didn't want to destroy other people's feelings, so later, I originally intended to confess, but I didn't know what to say. But I really didn't know that she was just taken away by Zhang Longtao at that time!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Hearing Zhang Yinuo's words, I was stunned and froze there for a long time. At this moment, I also slowly cleared my mind. Thinking of the bastard things I did just now, I felt that I was no different from Zhang Longtao, a naked bastard. I squatted on the ground, holding my head and crying bitterly, feeling particularly sorry for Su Xueyan in my heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Yinuo saw me squatting on the ground and crying bitterly, didn't take the next step, and slowly climbed up from the bed, put on her clothes, walked to my side, and said apologetically: \"I know everything I say now is useless. It was Zhang Longtao who was sorry for you. Although I really want to help you, I can't betray my brother, so sorry!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I squatted on the ground and shouted painfully: \"You go!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Yinuo also squatted on the ground, her eyes tearful, looked at me, and suddenly hugged me, and then the whole person pressed directly on me. I only felt the light touch on my lips. She hugged me enthusiastically and crazily, and I was stunned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Slowly, Zhang Yinuo let go of me: \"This is returning it to you. You kissed me just now, now I kiss you, we don't owe each other anything. Those things before were all my own willingness, so you don't have to blame yourself. I know it's impossible to persuade you to give up revenge, but I hope you also think about your own safety!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After saying that, Zhang Yinuo took her things, stood up slowly, opened the door, and left. Seeing Zhang Yinuo's departing figure, my heart was extremely complex, and my expression was painful. I naturally knew everything Zhang Yinuo did just now; she did it to keep me from having psychological pressure and to keep me from blaming myself.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhang Yinuo was indeed a very kind girl. Even though I did such excessive things to her just now, she didn't get angry, but instead came to comfort me. I felt that I was really a naked piece of human trash at this moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I lay on the ground weakly. Zhang Yinuo and Third Brother were indeed right. It was obvious that I was going to my death if I went to seek revenge now.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>I pre-paid some salary from Sister Ling. When I was free, I would buy some things to see Su Xueya and Zhang Fengnan. Although they tried their best not to, they couldn't help me and had to accept it. Indeed, I couldn't be impulsive now. After all, Su Xueya and the others were still waiting for me to take care of them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Third Brother and I decided to return to school and attend classes as usual. Third Brother was also happily picking up his girls. However, Zhang Yinuo hadn't come to tutor me during this time. Since she left my house that day, we hadn't said a word.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Because I really didn't have the face to see her, I now lowered my head or walked around whenever I saw her. These past two days, I and Third Brother Wang Hua and the others started thinking of ideas to recruit troops and buy horses, but our current strength couldn't do it. We had no money or power, nothing. We thought of many methods, but none of them could be used.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>And just on this day, Sister Ling suddenly asked me to eat together. Indeed, I had always said I would treat Sister Ling to a meal, but I never had the chance. This time, I simply agreed to go.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The place Sister Ling asked me to eat was the Jinling Hotel in our town. This big hotel was not an ordinary small restaurant. Some big bosses ate here. Seeing this, my heart ached, thinking it was over, I was going to drink the northwest wind. The consumption here for one meal was probably more than my salary for several months.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>That day, I arrived at the Jinling Hotel early. Suddenly, I saw a familiar person. I would never forget that person in my life. It was none other than Zhang Longtao. ===== CHAPTER 30 =====\u003C\u002Fp>",1341,"2026-06-11T15:09:04.179Z","2026-06-11T16:09:04.360Z",1,"Gemini 3.1 Flash Lite","e6df5847498a9df5da4dfe0134e3e19aa26dad0826a81ba726bc9f685de38445","rise-of-the-warlord-chapter-30","rise-of-the-warlord-chapter-28",227,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Frise-of-the-warlord-cover.jpg"]
