Chapter 119 Choice
The Federation will no longer sit idly by after this incident and will certainly take control of the ancient humans. By then, whether she will face the situation of losing her freedom again is unknown.
Qiao Susu lowered her eyes, so that the men present had no idea what she was thinking.
Karl couldn't stand it anymore, frowned and said to the men: "Why are you just putting pressure on her? If you are a man, find a way to solve it!"
Liberi didn't like him and directly retorted: "Then why don't you just break the prison and use your talent to get the people out directly. Aren't you awesome?"
Karl sneered and said disdainfully: "Robbery, do you think I dare not?"
Qiao Susu was getting annoyed by the quarrel between the two of them. Just when she was at a loss as to what to do, Sang Yan spoke.
"If you trust me, you can let Sui Sui join the Freedom Alliance."
As soon as these words were spoken, the whole living room fell silent.
Luka and Liberi looked at him at the same time. Sang Yan's eyes were very frank. He continued, "If she continues to stay in Oslan, are you confident that you can always protect her? I believe no one knows the mediation and checks and balances involved better than you. But no matter how long the Federation's reach is, it is limited to the member states under it."
Qiao Suisui's thoughts moved, but she didn't show it on her face. She looked at Sang Yan and said, "But how do I know that the Freedom Alliance is not another 'Federation'? They know my identity, so won't they restrict my freedom in the name of protection?"
Sang Yan shook his head, his eyes firm, and said to her: "I swear in the name of the Beast God that no one will force you to do anything you don't want to do there. If someone hurts you, I will never let him go easily. If you break this oath, I am willing to mortgage my soul to you and be spurned by the God forever."
The men present were silenced by the weight of the oath. Although they did not grow up in the Free Alliance, the position of the Beast God in their hearts was inviolable. But Qiao Suisui, a modern materialist, did not feel much. Compared with Sang Yan's oath, she actually believed in his character more.
"I believe you." said Qiao Susu.
"Sui Sui!" Libery half-knelt in front of her, no longer as tough as before. With red eyes, he grabbed her wrist and asked, "Are you really going to leave me? What about the child? What about the child? Don't you want us anymore?"
Qiao Susu closed her eyes tiredly, and finally said, "Let me think about it." Then she went straight upstairs.
In the living room, the men were still sitting in silence.
Luka said nothing. Although they were indoors, his shoulders seemed covered with frost, and there was nothing left on his face except gloom.
He was a little distracted thinking, maybe the reason why he hadn't been able to tell her was because he was afraid of facing this situation, afraid of knowing that she could give up herself for someone. He had never argued for her because he was afraid of the answer. When both he and the other person were placed on the scale of her heart, which one was more important?
Carl scratched his head in annoyance, and made a "tsk" sound, scratching his red hair like a chicken coop. He wished that he would not be bound by the obligations of the Federation. He would stick with her and go anywhere and do anything together.
Liberi pushed Luka's shoulder, the anger in his eyes could not be concealed, and said: "She usually listens to you the most, why don't you stop her? As long as you ask, she will definitely not have the heart to refuse."
Luka's eyes were filled with desolation, and he smiled bitterly, "Since we all know that she won't be able to refuse, why should we use her emotions to kidnap her? Ash, don't be silly. No one can stop her from doing what she really wants to do."
Liberi stood there in a daze, his hands clenched into fists, a feeling of unwillingness rising in his heart.
He turned around and was about to leave, but was stopped by Luka.
"what are you doing?"
"I'm going to ask her what's so good about that lunatic that makes her do this!"
"Stop it!"
Luka couldn't hold him back. Libery didn't care about anyone emotionally and was about to go upstairs. Carl rolled his eyes while sitting on the sofa. Sang Yan kindly stepped forward to dissuade him, but was pushed away by Libery.
"It's all your fault! What a bullshit suggestion! You are just pursuing your own selfish desires. You want to coax her to go to your place? Dream on!"
When Liberi and Sang Yan started fighting, Carl made a "tsk" sound and stood up to separate them with an impatient look on his face.
The first floor was suddenly in chaos.
Upstairs. Qiao Suisui leaned against the cold wall and vaguely heard the quarrel coming from below. A feeling of helplessness that she couldn't tell anyone about swept over her.
She slowly squatted down, hugged herself, and rested her head on her knees. Suddenly, the computer beeped and the light from the screen illuminated her face in the dark room.
【Celebrate Zhang Fei's discharge from hospital! 】
The attached picture is a selfie of Li Yi and Anubis. It is obvious that Li Yi took the photo with Anubis's laptop.
Qiao Susu wondered for a while who Zhang Fei was, and when she came to her senses she realized she had already laughed.
She clicked on the photo and saw the reserved young man in the photo. Lan Ze's words came to her mind again, especially the phrase 'peeling off the meat and bones'. She suddenly felt her heart ache.
She buried her head between her knees and sighed deeply, as if she wanted to let go of the heaviness of the day in this way. After a while, the voice of Anubis suddenly appeared in the room.
"Hey?"
Only then did Qiao Susu realize that she had touched the light brain by mistake and hit it directly.
"Jo?"
"Ah." Qiao Suisui quickly opened the voice-changing pill and said, "I, I want to congratulate you on your discharge from the hospital."
There was silence for a few seconds before a deep, magnetic voice sounded: "What happened?"
"It's okay. I'm just a little tired today."
Anubis pushed away Li Yi who was eavesdropping on the side, walked to a farther place, clenched the light computer in his hand, and said: "If there is anything you can't solve, you can tell me."
After saying this, he didn't hear any response from the other side. Anubis listened to her breathing quietly without urging her, as if he was accompanying her in a unique way.
After a while, her voice came from the brain: "If, I mean if. There is a person who is very good to you, but often puts a lot of pressure on you. He is in trouble now. You want to help him, but you have to give up other things. Will you choose to help?"
“That depends on what you are giving up.”
"What if you have to give up someone who is equally important to you?"
Anubis was silent for a while, looked up at the moon in the sky, and said, "If it is an important person, then I will not consider this option."
At this time, Qiao Susu also walked to the window, pushed it open to get some fresh air, the moonlight sprinkled on her body, and her eyes were confused.
The two people holding the light computers were looking at the same moon at the same time.
"What if we just go back to our original world?" She came to her senses after she finished speaking. Anubis probably didn't understand what she was talking about at all. He smiled bitterly at himself and sighed, "Forget it. I don't know what I'm talking about either."
"Joe."
His voice was firm and powerful, and when he called her name, there was an imperceptible tenderness in it.
"Remember, no matter what decision you make in the end, I will stand by you unconditionally."
Qiao Susu was stunned. At this moment, the moonlight was shining on her like stars, wrapping her gently. Her confused heart was also filled with warmth.
That night, she made a decision.
