Chapter 208 Qin Hao is My Shame
The news that Li Zhanwu and Qin Hao were still alive made Long Taibai completely sober up. His white eyes that were like a dead fish stared at the trembling Cang Ying, and he asked word by word, âAre you sure about this news?â
Cang Ying wiped off the cold sweat on his forehead and stabilized his mind. He replied in a severe tone, âCaptain Long, itâs absolutely true. I personally went to check it.â
With a âBangâ sound, Long Taibai sat back down in his seat, and crushed the teacup on the table into pieces with his hand, causing the water inside to flow everywhere.
âHow is that possible? Is the helicopter explosion fake?â Long Taibai shouted coldly, his ice-cold gaze piercing straight into Cang Yingâs heart, causing him to tremble once more. He had personally arranged all of this, and now that there was a problem, he would naturally be asked about the reason.
Cang Ying was so scared that he hurriedly explained, âNo, no, Captain Long, the explosion was absolutely true. Not only did we confirm it, but even the higher-ups also confirmed it.â
âSince it was blown up, why are Li Zhanwu and Qin Hao still alive? Are they made of steel, and wonât die from the explosion? â Long Taibai could not figure out the answer to this question, and itâs even more difficult for Cang Ying to figure it out.
It was okay if Qin Hao didnât die, but Li Zhanwu was an ordinary person. Even if he didnât die from the explosion, the fall from such a high altitude should have smashed him into a meat pie.
Right now, the only explanation was that their intelligence was probably wrong. Li Zhanwu and Qin Hao were not on the helicopter at all. They must have changed the vehicle and secretly returned to the capital.
There is a question in this possibility. Why would they change the vehicle and return secretly? Did they already know that the Dragon Group was going to make a move on them? But how did they know? This plan was personally set up by Cang Ying. Before the plan was implemented, no one knew about it and except a limited number of people. Even after itâs implemented, only a limited number of people knew about it. Besides Cang Ying himself, the rest of the people who knew about it had all been killed.
Cang Ying told Long Taibai the doubts he had in his mind. After listening, Long Taibai was lost in deep thought, and after a long while, he said in a cold and gloomy voice, âThis matter was personally arranged by you, go and investigate the specific reason. I hope that you can give me a reasonable and satisfactory explanation.â
âYes, Captain Long.âCang Ying could only do as he was told. When he was about to leave, he remembered that he almost forgot to mention something and he hastily said, âBy the way, Captain Long, Miss You Ying has returned.â
âWhat?â Long Taibai suddenly stood up, âWhere is she?â
âIn the attic where she lives.âCang Ying answered quickly.
âWhy didnât you tell me earlier?â Long Taibai immediately got up and left his seat. When he walked past Cang Ying, he glared at him angrily, then left the office in a hurry.
Standing in the office looking at Long Taibai leaving, Cang Ying sighed in relief and cursed viciously in his mind, âLong Taibai, who do you think you are? I did everything I could for you yet you treat me like this, and since you are so heartless, donât blame me for my injustice, humph, one day, this position will belong to me.â
Cang Ying looked at the dragon head throne behind Long Taibaiâs desk, his eyes blazing with fire.
In a slightly fragrant room in an antique attic, a graceful woman with a black veil was sitting in front of the balcony. Under the lamplight of the night, she gently played zither with her slender fingers. The sound of the zither was still melodious and pleasing to the ear, the beauty was still elegant and fragrant.
However, when Long Taibai walked into the attic this time, he heard something different from the sound of the zither. When he looked at the elegant and fragrant beauty, he felt that she was no longer her.
Long Taibai stood behind the lady, and did not disturb her playing, he only silently stared at her back and quietly listened.
After the song ended, the lady pressed the zither string, and the zither music came to an end.
âJunior Sister You Ying, your zither music is a bit chaotic. Your heart seems a bit restless.â Long Taibai walked to the balcony and looked out the window at the colorful city scenery and lightly opened his mouth.
You Ying raised her head, the small mouth behind the black veil lightly exhaled, âSenior, why do you have to mock me?â
âMock, humph.â Long Taibai snorted, âHow could I dare to mock you, Junior Sister?â
You Ying sighed, âI know, I did not manage to kill Qin Hao, you have a grudge against me.â
âI didnât want to, but âŠ!â Long Taibaiâs voice became a bit louder, and he almost wanted to get angry. However, facing You Ying, he eventually suppressed the anger in his heart, and said after he calmed himself down: âCan you tell me why the assassination failed? You never failed. â
âYeah, why did it fail?â You Ying asked to herself, âThese days I have been thinking, there is actually someone in this world who can survive after being poisoned by the worldâs most deadly âTianyi Divine Water.â Why is that so? I want to know the reason more than anyone. Unfortunately, I have never been able to figure it out. â
âJunior Sister, are you sure youâve made your move?â Long Taibai did not believe that someone who had been poisoned by the Tianyi Divine Water would still be alive, and he had already suspected whether You Ying had really poisoned Qin Hao.
When he said that, You Yingâs veil shook, she raised her head, and looked at Long Taibai, her eyes filled with disbelief, âSenior, you suspect me?â
âI donât want to suspect you, but you, who never failed, failed. Furthermore, you disappeared for so long, I sent people to search everywhere, but you are nowhere to be found. Tell me, why is this happening?â Long Taibai turned, he looked at You Ying and stared straight into You Yingâs eyes.
You Ying slowly stood up, her eyes filled with disappointment and sadness. âSenior, I thought that you were the person who understood me the best in this world, but I never expected that you would also suspect me. It seems that itâs time that I leave.â
âJunior Sister, I âŠSorry, I didnât mean to drive you away. I just wanted to know why.â Long Taibai hastily explained.
You Ying did not reply. She turned around and walked into the room from the balcony, saying, âFailure is a failure, the reason is no longer important. What I know is that Qin Hao is the only stain in my career, and is also my shame. Itâs a pity that even if I want to erase this stain, I donât have the chance to do so. â
âJunior Sister, Qin Hao is still alive.â Long Taibai rushed into the room.
You Ying shook her head, âIâve already seen the news on the television. Iâve also confirmed it. The helicopter he took exploded, and nobody would survive the explosion. Senior, you did this, right? â
âWe did it.â In front of her, Long Taibai did not hide anything, âBut heâs indeed not dead. I just received the news, heâs still alive, and has already returned to the capital.â
âWhat?â You Ying was stunned. âIs that true?â
âJunior Sister, when have I ever lied to you? If you donât believe me, you can personally verify it. You still have a chance to wash away your shame. â Long Taibai still hoped that You Ying would take care of Qin Hao.
âHe really has a strong life.â You Ying let out a long sigh, âMaybe itâs a chance that God gave me to wash away my shame. Donât worry Senior, Qin Haoâs life will sooner or later be taken by me. However, this time, itâs not to help you, but to wash away my shame. Iâm leaving, take care of yourself. â
âJunior sister, no, wait a moment. What do you mean by that? Are you leaving this place, are you leaving me?â Long Taibai, the dignified boss of the Dragon Group, who could make others tremble in fear just with a look, would panic. He stood in front of You Ying, not knowing what to do.
âJunior Sister, Iâm sorry, I was wrong, I apologize. Please donât leave, donât leave me, okay? â If somebody said that Long Taibai also would beg someone, no one would believe it. Only other people would beg him. But today, Long Taibai was begging a woman.
âSenior, you know my personality. No one can change the things that I have decided.â You Yingâs voice had become cold.
âJunior sister, I was wrong, I was really wrong, I shouldnât have suspected you. I, I am a bastard. Tell me, what do I have to do to ease your anger? As long as you are willing to stay, I will do anything.â To keep this woman, he had no bottom line now.
You Ying shook her head and sighed, âSenior, Iâm sorry. Itâs time for me to leave.â In the end, You Ying still pushed Long Taibai away, and walked out of the attic, leaving the place that she had lived in for a few years, and from then on, bid farewell to years of a peaceful life without killing.
âJunior SisterâŠ!â Long Taibai chased her outside, looking at her figure disappearing into the night, he was extremely regretful. He was asking himself how he could suspect his junior sister. He could suspect anyone, but not her.
However, things had already been done, and it was too late to regret. He only hoped that after a few days, she would calm down and he could go and apologize again, anyway, as long as Qin Hao was still alive, she would still stay in the capital.
Qin Hao stayed in the military apartment. After going to the restaurant outside for dinner, Qin Hao brought Shi Bingying to stroll around the night scenery of the capital and returned to the apartment.
At this time, on one of the tables in the living room, Qin Hao conjured a variety of different weapons as he placed them on the table.
A short ax, a ghost blade, a hammer throw, a whip, a flute, and an iron ruler.
Looking at the weapons on the table, Shi Bingying opened her eyes in shock. Even if she wasnât experienced enough to be familiar with these weapons, she could tell from the cold aura and luster that they were good weapons.
To the Martial Cultivators outside, these weapons could even be called divine weapons, because they were all used by experts of Spirit Stage or above in half-ancient martial sect, and were all plundered from them by Qin Hao.
How could the fake ancient Martial Cultivators outside have the fortune to see such weapons?
Qin Hao planned to give these high-grade weapons to the five members of the Sky Group. With good weapons, next month, when they fight against the Dragon Group, their odds of winning would be increased a bit. Of course, before giving them to the Sky Group, he would have to choose one for Shi Bingying, he was selfish in this.
âHao, where did all these come from?â Shi Bingying looked at these high-grade weapons that she had never seen before and asked in curiosity.
Qin Hao smiled, âHehe, you donât need to ask about this. Look, pick anyone you like.â In front of girls, he naturally could not say that he had obtained them by killing, that would make him look to violent. Furthermore, if he said that he had obtained them by killing countless Spirit Stage experts, Shi Bingying would not believe it for the time being.
âYou mean, give me a weapon?â Shi Bingying was a little hesitant, âHao, such good weapons, wouldnât it be too much of a waste for me to use?â
âWhat are you talking about? Let alone these shitty weapons. It wouldnât even be a waste if I gave you better ones. How can the things I gave you be considered a waste?â Qin Hao pointed to the soft whip, âI think this is more suitable for you.â This soft whip was initially used by a woman and was just suitable for Shi Bingying.
Shi Bingying looked at the soft whip but reached for the black flute.
Qin Haoâs eyes flashed. Shi Bingying had good taste, that flute was a weapon that the Savage Evil E Guantian had used, its level was higher than that of the other weapons.
