Chapter 1994: Nothing Is More Important Than Being Alive

At this moment, Claudia was in a state between dreaming and waking.

The sounds and smiles of her parents and two younger brothers kept appearing before her eyes, appearing incredibly real.

And the raging fire of revenge in front of her was scorching her body at close range, even drying the tears that kept gushing out of her big eyes.

Once, that monstrous hatred made her carry the heavy burden forward with difficulty alone;

And now, as all the hatred dissipated with the big fire in front of her, she finally experienced the feeling of relief for the first time.

However, compared to her, Li Xiaofen was trembling with fear the moment she watched a living person wail and burn in front of her.

She couldn't help but bury her head in Ye Chen's arm, closing her eyes and not daring to look, but Ye Chen patted her back and whispered in her ear: "Don't be afraid, this is the truest appearance of this world."

Although Li Xiaofen was an orphan, she had been adopted by the welfare institute since she was a child. During the process of growing up, she was not only taken care of by Auntie Li but also protected by a group of little friends.

Although life was a bit bitter, everyone never let her suffer any grievances, nor did they give her a chance to experience the dangers of the world.

However, this incident made Ye Chen realize that Li Xiaofen's understanding of the evil in this world was far from enough.

At twenty-something, her understanding of the dark side of this world was not even as good as eighteen-year-old Claudia's.

And if it weren't for Claudia finding a way to notify him, Li Xiaofen might have already fallen victim to Guo Lei's poisonous hands.

Therefore, Ye Chen felt that it was time to let her face the cruelty of this world, so that she would be more vigilant in the future.

Having more such awareness could also make her more guarded against this society.

Li Xiaofen also roughly understood Ye Chen's intention, and her trembling body gradually returned to stability.

Not until Guo Lei turned into a human-shaped charred corpse did Ye Chen speak to Claudia: "Claudia, Guo Lei is dead. Can you let go of this matter in your heart?"

Claudia turned around, looked at Ye Chen, and choked up: "I can let go... Mr. Ye, I really don't know how to thank you... If it weren't for your help, I wouldn't know when I would be able to avenge my family..."

Ye Chen waved his hand: "No need to be so polite. It was your kind intention to save Xiaofen that bore good fruit, so in the final analysis, you helped yourself."

Li Xiaofen had learned the whole story from the conversation between Claudia and Guo Lei just now.

So, she walked up to Claudia and said gratefully: "Claudia, thank you..."

Claudia hurriedly said: "Sister Xiaofen, don't say that. I should thank you and Auntie Li, otherwise, I might have been wandering the streets long ago."

Ye Chen said to the two: "You two don't need to thank each other here. I'll have someone arrange for a few female soldiers to accompany you back to the cockpit to rest. I still have some things to deal with here."

Li Xiaofen nodded gently. Claudia looked at Andrei and the other Italian group members and asked Ye Chen: "Mr. Ye, them... how do you plan to deal with them?"

Ye Chen asked her: "How do you want me to deal with them?"

Claudia shook her head and said: "I don't know... I just feel that although they all have crimes, most of them don't deserve to die..."

Ye Chen smiled slightly and whispered: "You don't need to worry about this matter. I will spare their lives and give them a chance to turn over a new leaf."

Ye Chen didn't say the second half of the sentence.

The opportunity definitely had to be given, but it definitely wasn't letting them go home to turn over a new leaf, but following the Wanlong Palace to the Middle East to turn over a new leaf.

Of course, it was mainly to let them work and contribute. As for whether they would turn over a new leaf, it wasn't that important.

Subsequently, Claudia and Li Xiaofen left the cargo hold under the escort of several female soldiers.

The charred Guo Lei still stood in the center of the cargo hold, his body still emitting wisps of blue smoke. The cargo hold, which could hold ten thousand tons of cargo, was also filled with a burnt smell at this time.

The members of the Italian group, including Andrei, looked at Guo Lei's remains at this time, each with a look of horror and extreme fear. ===== CHAPTER 1995 =====
