Spy-x-War Showdown
Chapter 699 - 705

Chapter 699: 705

Yang Yi had a lot on his mind, and in fact, he had always been quite repressed. Why? Because he couldn’t attain what he desired, and he couldn’t achieve the things he wanted to accomplish.

Living in this world is never easy, especially for someone like Yang Yi who seemed to be constantly finding things to trouble himself with, making life even more oppressive and gloomy.

Yang Yi was actually a very cheerful and passionate person, but the work he was now doing required him not to trust anyone easily. He loathed, even hated, betrayal and treachery, yet he was a spy, the very kind of traitor he despised.

He had chosen this path himself, and there was no changing it, nor could it be changed. Therefore, Yang Yi knew he had to continue with the way of life he detested until he died, unable to escape it.

Yang Yi was very angry at the moment, angry because he had heard about Woody’s ordeal, and then he suddenly realized a fact.

Although he was nothing compared to the Grey-cloaked People, nothing compared to cleaners, nothing compared to Justin, nothing compared to Deyo, and still nothing compared to Big Ivan, whether it was the Organization of Water or Yang Yi himself, at best, they had a smidgen of strength.

But Yang Yi found that when facing ordinary people, he was as powerful as a god.

So when he realized that he could act as an agent of justice, and that it was indeed very simple and wouldn’t lead to any adverse consequences, Yang Yi felt that if there was something infuriating, then why not remove the obstacles in his heart?

It was just a matter of one sentence, and it only required spending a little money.

The environment can change a person’s character. While Yang Yi’s personality had not changed dramatically, he suddenly found himself exploding, realizing that he was no longer bound by rules and laws, and he decided to act on a whim.

If Woody would rather not join the Organization of Water than kill his ex-wife, then Yang Yi, angry as he was, wouldn’t make choices for others. But since Woody had agreed to his terms, there was no need to wait; it would be best to handle things cleanly and swiftly.

Looking at the resolute Yang Yi, most of the people present were exchanging glances.

Brian frowned and asked, "Are you serious?"

"Of course I’m serious."

Yang Yi confidently replied, "As I said, if Woody doesn’t want to join us, then there is no problem. But if he does join us, then he must do as I say."

Xiao Ran said loudly, "But there are three children, how sad they would be without their mother."

Yang Yi turned to Woody and said, "I don’t have children, so I may not fully understand your emotions, but I know that it’s indeed painful for children to lose their mother. Are you sure that living with your ex-wife is the best for them?"

Woody said softly, "My ex-wife still loves the children very much."

"Are you sure?"

"I..."

"Are you really sure she loves her children? I don’t understand these things well, but I think that a woman having an affair is normal, falling for another man is normal, making a mistake because of loneliness and boredom is normal. But being with two men... that’s definitely not normal, and it’s not something a normal mother would do."

Calmy spreading his hands, Yang Yi continued, "Especially when this woman, instead of trying to repair her marriage and relationship when she did wrong, chose to call the police to kick you out of the house and prevent you from seeing your children. Even if she felt the slightest bit of guilt towards you, she wouldn’t have done that, would she?"

Chris whispered, "You’re still living in that adulterer’s house and letting him pay alimony. Most importantly, Woody, are you sure the child is yours?"

Yang Yi immediately said, "Right! Why not do a paternity test?"

Chris gave a bitter smile and said, "Uh, even if the child isn’t his, he would still have to pay alimony."

Yang Yi was taken aback and said, "That’s possible? Fuck, I suddenly feel that getting married in the United States really requires a lot of courage."

Xiao Ran curled her lip and said, "So now you know why so many people don’t get married, especially Black people. Single mothers are too common. The reason for this is that if you don’t marry, you don’t have to take responsibility, right? Get a woman pregnant and then disappear, huh, all men are bastards."

Yang Yi, dissatisfied, said, "Hey, that’s quite a sweeping statement you’re making."

Xiao Ran said angrily, "Why do you guys think it’s normal for a man to have two women but not okay for a woman to have two men? Should she be killed for that?"

Yang Yi immediately said, "A man who does such a thing is scum, I’m not denying that. If you’re married, then you should live your life properly. Both men and women who cheat are scumbags. Is this the case with Woody’s ex-wife? They were married, and Woody went to that place in Iraq just to earn extra allowances to support his family. Is it reasonable to cuckold him in such a situation?"

Xiao Ran shrugged. Yang Yi was getting a bit excited, so she continued, "It’s common to like one person and then another, but you either pick one and invest in that relationship or just keep quiet. I like you and Kate, but I can’t date both of you at the same time. If I can’t be monogamous, then I’d rather... I’d rather..."

When Yang Yi noticed Xiao Ran’s expression was a bit strange, he suddenly realized he’d said something he shouldn’t have.

"Anyway! Such people shouldn’t exist in this world. Just because you’re a woman, do you have to side with Woody’s ex-wife? Hey, what about basic moral principles?"

Yang Yi quickly steered the topic back, then he threw out a sharp question to try and distract from what he had just said. But he noticed that Kate’s expression was also weird, while the others seemed to relish the situation, all except for Rodriguez, who looked at him with sympathy.

Xiao Ran sneered and said, "Who said I’m speaking for her? People like that should die, whether they’re men or women."

After saying that, Xiao Ran said to Yang Yi with exasperation, "It would be outrageous if she doesn’t die."

Anton, who had been silent all this while, suddenly said, "I’m quite interested in making a trip to the United States to handle this matter. It’s just four or five days."

Yang Yi looked to Woody and said, "You heard him. Now you’d better think about who is the most suitable guardian for the child and then..."

Woody hesitated and said, "Does it have to be this urgent? I think it’d be best to plan this out carefully."

"There’s nothing to plan. This kind of thing doesn’t need planning at all."

Yang Yi finished speaking and looked at Zhang Yong, "You brought him here, so you help him sort this out, and make another trip."

Zhang Yong said with a grimace, "Long-distance flights are exhausting. Can I at least rest for a day or two? Otherwise, let Anton go. He wants to, right? Let him do it."

Anton nodded and said, "Yes, I’d be very willing to handle this."
