DOOMSDAY ECSTASY CAVE (87)

 87. THREAT

Chu Youning was neither crazy nor stupid. The current situation was more than clear. Whoever can afford to go all out and fight with the other base will be the ultimate winner. Gao Yang has always been a risk taker, gambling with his life, every time. He doesn't even care about his life, so what is one base for him?

Compared with Gao Yang, Lei Yi was no good, he was just a crown prince, no matter how powerful he was, he hasn't ascended the throne yet and even if he wanted to fight, he doesn't necessarily have the ability. So... since it's already been determined that she was staying, then she can just arrange the follow-up.

Hearing Chu Youning's words, Lei Yi was overwhelmed by the huge surprise. Without mentioning emotions and what not first, just by Chu Youning's words, Lei Yi earned a lot of face in front of Gao Yang. What can you do with the promise of a lifetime? So what if there was a woman beside him who he can't get rid of? She just likes him, say, are you infuriated?

Gao Yang was about to explode, his fire powers were faintly surging under his blood, threatening to flare up at the drop of a hat. "Ningning!" His voice was no longer as gentle as it had been. "Before saying this, have you considered his situation?" Seeing Chu Youning's stiff body, Gao Yang smiled coldly.

"He is powerful, can take you away, but what about his teammates? What about Professor Li who he is trying to protect? Do you believe that once you leave from the front foot, in the back foot I will feed them in big pieces to the zombies!"

[前脚...,后脚... - Qián Jiǎo..., Hòu Jiǎo... - front foot..., back foot... (phr. in oral Chinese; describing sequence of events). right after some body had done something, some body else did something. / one moment..., and then the next. In the above paragraph, Gao Yang is threatening Chu Youning that he will feed them to the zombies right after she leaves with Lei Yi( only if she does indeed leave with him.)]

Hey, feeding the zombies, even cutting into pieces so as to not leave them with the chance to survive even by a little bit. Surely he was still the same Gao Yang that she knew.

As Gao Yang's voice landed, the entire banquet froze. Gao Yang was also not in a hurry, he gave Chu Youning time to think, and then slowly stretched out his hand, "Come here, let me hug you properly!"

Chu Youning shuddered violently and looked at Lei Yi subconsciously. Lei Yi was so angry that he was about to explode. How could Gao Yang be so arrogant. One must know that as long as he gives his all, and if he fights to death, then he can at the very least destroy half of his base, and even kill him!

Gao Yang seemed to have seen through Lei Yi's thoughts and smiled coldly at him, "It's a pity, Captain Lei is not the same as this Lord Gao who has no relatives and is all alone. You should always consider the old parents at home in the far away ZhanLei Base!"

Chu Youning looked at Lei Yi with red eyes and slowly pushed him away and took two steps back. Lei Yi subconsciously went to catch her, but was avoided by Chu Youning. She didn't even dare to look into his eyes, and said with a strong nasal voice with difficulty, "I suddenly found that staying at the Gaoyang Base as a Mistress is better and much more comfortable than following you to run around..."

[女主人-nǚ zhǔ rén. Hostess/Mistress. as in female master, the wife of the master/ mistress of a household]

"Ningning!" Lei Yi's eyes reddened and burned in pain, how could he not know what she was trying to do? She was also resigned. Lei Yi grabbed Chu Youning's wrist, "I promised to protect you."

Chu Youning's body trembled slightly, and after a while she raised her head and looked at Lei Yi with a tearful smile. "Thank you, Captain Lei, for escorting me back... " This one sentence could not separate the two any more clearly. Chu Youning managed to change the meaning of Lei Yi's words. He fulfilled his promise and successfully sent her home...

Gao Yang smiled. His Ningning was very smart and always knew what to choose. He stretched out his hand to hold Chu Youning's other hand, and slowly but unceremoniously pulled her closer into his arms.

"Thank you, Captain Lei, for escorting Gao's wife all the way back. Later, Gao will prepare a thank you gift and visit you in person." Gao Yang said politely with the posture of a winner.

Who cares about your thank you gift? Lei Yi clenched his fist tightly. He knew he should go along with Gao Yang's words and turn the page, but as a man... he really couldn't do it...

Just as Lei Yi tried to pull Chu Youning back, Chu Youning looked at him with tear-filled eyes, shaking her head slightly with pleading eyes. There was a bang in Lei Yi's mind, and a different kind of feeling seemed to have broken through and burst out.

Right at that moment, Lu Yiming stepped forward and pressed Lei Yi's shoulder. "Since Ningning has decided, you shouldn't make her feel embarrassed." After saying that, he secretly squeezed Lei Yi's shoulder.

Lei Yi suddenly calmed down. With their tacit understanding between brothers, just by these few words, he knew that Lu Yiming had thought of a way to rescue Chu Youning.

In the end, Gao Yang took Chu Youning away.
