Chapter 355: Chapter 147: Confession, Unreasonable, Rice Flowers_4

Yang Bingzhong across the way was at a loss whether to cry or laugh. He personally sent a message to Ma Xiaoling, "Captain Ma, your father and I just have different ideologies, and now we’ve gone our separate ways. There’s no need for you to persist. Ren Zhong is very important to me now, and I hope you don’t go too far."

Ma Xiaoling replied, "Mind your own damn business."

Two minutes later, Yang Bingzhong replied to Ren Zhong.

"Ren Zhong, you are indeed impressive. Ma Xiaoling is deeply infatuated with you and can’t let go. But you don’t have to be too afraid. She probably won’t kill you. Just play along with her. She will eventually tire of it."

Ren Zhong: "Ah, this..."

Yang Bingzhong seemed to feel his words were too cold-blooded, so he added another sentence.

"Here, I’ve used my connections to arrange a VIP ward for you in Zhan Sha County Hospital. That place has the best treatment on Source Star—the Molecular Regeneration Device. As long as you’re not dead, they can restore you to pristine condition."

Ren Zhong "was moved to tears," Thank you, Mr. Yang.

After ending the communication, a meaningful smile appeared on Yang Bingzhong’s lips.

A three-dimensional video with a bird’s-eye view appeared before him.

It was the scene in front of Ren Zhong’s villa, shot from the high-angle central surveillance of Chromium Carbon Town.

This video, magnified dozens of times optically, clearly displayed the expressions on the faces of Ren Zhong and Ma Xiaoling.

Although the video before Yang Bingzhong had no sound due to not obtaining the wrist watch’s listening permission, he watched the entire performance of the Love Saint.

He watched as Ren Zhong calmed down the angrily approaching Ma Xiaoling with just a few words, and then saw her expression turn to confusion, then grief, and finally indignation and shame.

After truly injuring Ren Zhong severely, her expressions changed rapidly, sometimes reluctant, sometimes cruel, as if twistedly mad.

Finally, she carried Ren Zhong into the returning armed escort vehicle, flying straight to Zhan Sha County.

President Yang recalled what he learned in the psychological analysis class of his management course, grasping Ma Xiaoling’s state of hatred born from love to perfection.

Love indeed can make a normal person turn into a madman.

After listening to Ren Zhong’s personal report, Yang Bingzhong was very satisfied.

Previously he was worried that Ren Zhong and the Ma family father and daughter would reconcile, but now it seems the hidden danger is removed.

No one can withstand the inhuman torture of being injured and healed repeatedly; it is more painful than death.

The conflict between Ren Zhong and the Ma family father and daughter will only deepen.

When Starfire Town is officially abolished, the Ma family, as the mayor and guard captain of Starfire Town, must return to Liao Yuan County for debriefing.

At that time, Ma Dafu will be forced to retire.

Ma Xiaoling, as a professional guard captain supported by many resources from the Business Association, can only have a two-month vacation, after which she must report to the next work location.

Then, naturally, Ren Zhong will see the light at the end of the tunnel.

...

On the afternoon of the 72nd day, Ren Zhong lay in the VIP rest area of the Zhan Sha County training ground, receiving treatment while watching the intelligence summary sent by Yujin.

Ma Xiaoling also had intelligence from Ma Dafu, but the focus of the two differed.

Yujin, who hailed from the bottom, understands Ren Zhong and knows what Ren Zhong truly cares about.

Yujin said the town has been chaotic recently, and it’s getting worse.

Although supported by Yang Bingzhong’s lies, Scavengers who believed they had the ability to escape began to go out one after another, trying to find new havens, but none returned, all disappearing without a trace.

Inside Starfire Town, undercurrents started surging, with more and more people placing their only hope on the illusory and non-existent Pu Cha, living muddle-headedly day by day, anxious and afraid, with sensitive and irritable emotions, and the frequency of brutal fights on the streets increased a lot, with people dying every day.

Moreover, Mengdu Group’s life-buying cars came more and more frequently, from once a week, one vehicle, to now once a day, two vehicles each time.

Increasing numbers of people boarded the life-buying cars, becoming younger and younger.

Some families having perceived a sense of unknown unease, decided to concentrate the family’s resources on one person.

Entire families boarded the life-buying cars, leaving only the youngest or the luckiest draw standing foolishly by the roadside, waving goodbye to their families.

The cries of pain echoed through the skies of Starfire Town.

Yujin used brief text to describe this scene, with just a few words, but Ren Zhong heard the cries coming from afar,

...

On the 73rd day, new bad news came from Yang Bingzhong’s side.

Ren Zhong was kidnapped.

Early this morning, the extremely perverse Ma Xiaoling, at the end of her vacation, disregarded the rules, flouting codes of honor, and conveniently captured and took Ren Zhong back to Starfire Town.

Zheng Tian and other squad members couldn’t rest easy and hurriedly returned to Starfire Town using paid transportation tools.

President Yang was both shocked and furious, having a heated phone call with Ma Dafu, explicitly threatening Ma Dafu that if anything were to happen to his confidant general, he would not spare Ma Xiaoling.

The old Ma comrade watched as Ren Zhong and his daughter sat drinking tea, chatting, eating grapes, and watching stocks, feeling complex emotions and not knowing what to say.

"Oh, um, I’ll be waiting."

Old Ma awkwardly hung up the phone and suddenly laughed.

Though they had just returned and had not had time to say anything yet, Old Ma seemed to become a few years younger instantly.

In conclusion, I was not betrayed.

It’s wonderful.

I lost all my life, but at last, I won a round.

Even though winning just this little is futile, it still brings some relief.

Ma Dafu walked up to Ren Zhong and asked, "So what’s the situation?"

Ma Xiaoling, spitting out a grape seed with a piu, answered first, "He wants to participate in the Pu Cha as a temporary Scavenger of Starfire Town, challenging the Cold-blooded Butcher."

Ma Dafu held his forehead, almost fainting.

What on earth!

Ren Zhong spread his hands, "Old Ma, there’s something I’ve lied to you about. I’ve been deceiving you all along. I don’t really have any team, nor have I found a new settlement for the Scavengers. That’s the truth."

Ma Dafu: "Crazy!"

"But my intention to save Starfire Town is serious. My plan is to help you and Starfire Town pass the Pu Cha. It hasn’t changed."

Ma Dafu really didn’t want to deal with Ren Zhong anymore, thinking that his schemes over the past two months had become a joke.

He felt pitifully foolish.

He looked at Ma Xiaoling, "Do you believe him?"

Ma Xiaoling nodded, "I feel like he’s not lying this time."

"Feel? Is that even acceptable?"

Old Ma thought perhaps his failure stemmed from having Ma Xiaoling as a daughter.

...

Ren Zhong laughed heartily as he was chased out of the town government by Ma Dafu.

He stood atop the White Wall, gazing into the distance, overlooking every detail inside Starfire Town.

This place is desolate, chaotic, impoverished.

This place is about to be destroyed.

This place doesn’t even have the abundant resources like Chromium Carbon Town, nor the various advanced facilities in Zhan Sha County nearby for his use.

But subtly, only standing here does he feel a sense of peace inside.

He still hadn’t told the truth.

This time, he wouldn’t see the Cold-blooded Butcher.

Before challenging the Cold-blooded Butcher, the first opponent he must face is the Descending Demon Baby.

The day after tomorrow.

Meaning the 75th day.

He was going to die.

This time, it was death for the sake of dying.

Ren Zhong wore a carefree smile on his face.

This time, he had given up many things to willingly die for people unrelated to him.

He thought.

Someone like me, in the 21st century, would probably be scolded as a saint.

But what does it matter?

Because I am the rice flower of Orange Isle, always wither in autumn and sprout in spring!
