While the other party was speaking, Yun Xiaoxiao kept a close eye on their expression.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
It didn''t seem like they were lying.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
A flicker of confusion passed through Yun Xiaoxiao''s eyes.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
The Base Commander was the father of Zhao Rongyan and Ling Jing.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Why would they look for someone so simr to her?<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Was it intentional, or just a coincidence?<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
If it was a coincidence, it was far too coincidental.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
The age, gender, and even the supernatural ability were exactly the same.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
But if it was intentional...<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Could it be that they actually knew she was responsible for Zhao Rongyan''s death?<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
But how would they have found out?<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
It seemed that to get to the bottom of this, she needed to meet the Commander of Rongsheng Base.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Shenguidly looked at the man, "Uncle, I need you to do me a favor."<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Seeing the calcting look in Yun Xiaoxiao''s eyes, Ling Jing slowly leaned back in his seat, a smile ying on his lips.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
He nced towards the ind in the middle of theke, thinking it was about time to meet his ''dear'' old dad.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Of course, along with that wicked woman.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
He was now truly eager to send them to hell...<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
At the entrance to theke ind.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
There were over twenty guards here, the security was extremely tight.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"What''s your business?" The lead guard sternly blocked the car.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"I''ve found the person the Base Commander was looking for, I''m taking them to him now."<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
The guard checked the man''s identity card and peered into the car.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Inside, Yun Xiaoxiao was bound with a ''rope''.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
It looked like a rope, but it was actually Yun Xiaoxiao''s own vine.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
In the darkness of night, unless one looked very carefully, it was impossible to tell the difference.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Ling Jing, meanwhile, was wearing the uniform of a city guard.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
The guard didn''t notice anything amiss and cleared the way.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"Go on through."<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
And just like that, they slipped past and headed straight for theke ind.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Upon reaching the ind, the man repeated the same story, and under someone''s guidance, they entered the vi''s main hall.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"Wait here for a moment, I''ll go inform the Base Commander."<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
After saying this, the person headed upstairs.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Not long after, a middle-aged man in a Zhongshan suit came down from the second floor.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
He was clearly someone who had long been in a position of power.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
His entire demeanor wasposed,manding respect without even trying.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Behind him followed a short man with a shrewd look and features reminiscent of a monkey.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Zhao Huaimin casually nced at Yun Xiaoxiao as he descended the stairs.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
He sat down on the sofa.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"Is it her?" he suddenly spoke.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Immediately, the short man behind him gave Yun Xiaoxiao a long, appraising look.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"Yes, that''s her."<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
As soon as the words were spoken, Zhao Huaimin''s gaze locked onto Yun Xiaoxiao like it wasced with poison, as if he wanted to tear her to pieces.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"So you''re the one who killed my son!" His voice was icy, his face slightly darkening.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Hearing this, Ling Jing raised his eyebrows in surprise, but quickly lowered his head again, a mocking smile ying on his lips.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Huh, clearly this ''son'' wasn''t him.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
It made sense, in their eyes, there had only ever been one son.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
He was nothing more than the bastard child of some cheap woman on the side.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Yun Xiaoxiao didn''t look at Zhao Huaimin, but instead at the short man beside him.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
She had wondered how Zhao Huaimin knew she was responsible for Zhao Rongyan''s death, but now it was clear - he had a fortune-teller with supernatural abilities by his side.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
If that was the case, it wasn''t strange at all.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Zhao Huaimin''s face darkened at being ignored, and he was about to lose his temper when suddenly, a beautiful woman walked in from outside.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Although she was past fifty, she still retained her charm and had an exceptional air about her.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
To be dressed so luxuriously in this post-apocalyptic world, her status must be extraordinary.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"Darling, have you found the culprit who killed our Yan''er?" Luo Qn walked in anxiously, her high heels clicking.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"Where is she? I want to kill her myself to avenge Yan''er!"<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Luo Qn''s usual facade of kindness and gentleness hadpletely vanished.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
All that remained was viciousness and madness.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"Mind your status," Zhao Huaimin frowned slightly.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"What status? My son is dead, what do I care about status?!" Luo Qn shouted angrily, shattering her previous image of a calm and elegantdy, now resembling nothing more than a shrew.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
At this moment, she noticed the three people in the room.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Her eyes immediately fell on Yun Xiaoxiao.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
In an instant, her face was filled with fury.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
She red at Yun Xiaoxiao.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"Is it you? You little bastard, you''re the one who killed my son, aren''t you?!"<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"Who are you calling an old bastard, you hag?" Yun Xiaoxiao raised her eyes, a dangerous glint shing in their corners.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"What did you call me?!" Luo Qn''s eyes bulged.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
She had never imagined anyone would dare to insult her to her face like this!<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"Heh, I''ve never met someone so deserving of insults before. Since you''re so eager to be cursed at, I suppose I''ll have to oblige you.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Old bastard, old hag, old witch..."<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"Shut your mouth!" Luo Qn was so angry she raised her hand to p Yun Xiaoxiao.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
But in the next second, the ''rope'' on Yun Xiaoxiao vanished, and her outstretched wrist was caught by a small hand.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Yun Xiaoxiao pursed her lips, shing an evil smile at Luo Qn.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"Olddy, it''s not right to hit people, you know. No one taught you that at your age, so today I''ll be a good person and teach you a lesson."<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
As she spoke, she smirked wickedly, gripping the other''s wrist and giving it a slight twist.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"Crack!"<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
The sound of dislocating bones echoed throughout the hall.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
So jarring, so loud.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Luo Qn''s face contorted in pain.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Her screams were unending.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
In a second, more than a dozen tall, armed men burst in from outside, surrounding Yun Xiaoxiao and the others.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"You insolent child! First, you kill my son, and now you hurt my wife. Do you have no respect for me as the Base Commander?!" Zhao Huaimin shouted angrily, his face dark.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Yun Xiaoxiao shrugged, putting on an innocent face.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
"Isn''t it obvious? Clearly, I don''t respect you at all.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Hey, I''ve made it so obvious, and you still can''t see it. How did you even be Base Commander? Do I really need to spell it out for you? Sigh..."<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Yun Xiaoxiao put on an exasperated expression.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
Ling Jing couldn''t hold back anymore and let out a snort ofughter.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
To be able to anger his ''good father'' like this, and publicly teach that arrogant, high-and-mighty poisonous woman a lesson, this little one was truly full of surprises.<span ss="css-1gz1n0z"><span ss="bg css-i073lf"><span ss="num css-0">0
