Face-Slapping the Interstellar General and His Ger (7.2)

Editor: ghost

Wu Mingdi’s silence made the workers feel stifled and oppressed. They unexpectedly took only about half an hour to finish the one hour job.

After they were done, Wu Mingdi paid the fee and continued to drink.

Zhou Xu could not wait any longer. He was not planning to sleep at someone else’s house; if this was the case, a certain person would become worried.

Fortunately, Wu Mingdi’s alcohol tolerance was average. He got drunk not too long after the workers had left.

Lying on the sofa, Wu Mingdi rambled drunkenly.

“Ding Zhaolin, you idiot. I like Sun Qingxia. That’s right, Qingxia, do you remember? When you were young, you were scared of everyone except me. I really like holding your hand…”

Not in the mood to listen to Wu Mingdi’s ramblings, Zhou Xu decided to sneak out the door. In any case, Wu Mingdi was lying on the sofa and would not be able to see Zhou Xu crouch and sneak out from that angle.

However, after taking only two steps, his name unexpectedly came out of Wu Mingdi’s mouth, shocking Zhou Xu.

“Qingxia, I like you this much, but why don’t you like me at all? Zhou Xu? Why are you here? I hate you, get out….”

Zhou Xu stood up, thinking that he had been already found out by Wu Mingdi. He was prepared to confront him, but in the end, Wu Mingdi unexpectedly continued to talk to himself, “Get out, get out. I don’t like you, don’t keep hovering around in front of me. I’m telling you, even if you are the general’s person, I will snatch you away… No, why would I snatch you, I want to defeat you…. Right, defeat you…. Hmph, now you are a senior colonel, you must think you are better than me… Hmph, I still want to defeat you… Zhou Xu, you don’t know, but you look so good when you play the piano….”

Zhou Xu stood up straight and walked to the sofa. Wu Mingdi was lying on the sofa with his eyes closed, but still rambling on. Currently, he completely did not count as a man in Zhou Xu’s eyes.

He could not give Ding Zhaolin a future, but he just listened to his parents and married him.

He was irresponsible. He said he liked Sun Qingxia, but he could not manage himself and let Sun Qingxia have a peace of mind.

Lastly, he was stupid. He could not make clear to himself who exactly he liked. When he found out, he would be in for a shock.

Zhou Xu disdainfully looked at Wu Mingdi, but the other man suddenly opened his eyes. They made eye contact, stunning Zhou Xu.

While Zhou Xu was in a daze, Wu Mingdi pounced on him and pushed him to the floor, “Zhou Xu, I clearly said to not appear before me–why do you still appear? Why do you constantly appear before me? You must be doing this on purpose, definitely….”

Zhou Xu was pressed onto the floor by Wu Mingdi. Wu Mingdi’s hands were not well behaved as they tried to pry open Zhou Xu’s clothes.

Zhou Xu used all his energy to push Wu Mingdi away. Just as he did that, he saw a pair of shoes; women’s shoes.

Getting up, Zhou Xu immediately stepped on the dead drunk Wu Mingdi’s fingers.

“Ah!” Wu Mingdi was startled and finally sobered up.

Only now did Zhou Xu truly understand what it meant to be left speechless. It looked like they were caught in an act of adultery, but out of the three of them, who did not hate the other two? No, maybe Wu Mingdi still quite liked Sun Qingxia.

The room was quiet. Wu Mingdi looked at Zhou Xu in confusion, then looked at Sun Qingxia and suddenly understood the situation. Maybe what Ding Zhaolin said was true.

Sun Qingxia turned her head to look at Zhou Xu. Her voice trembled as she said, “Please leave.”

Zhou Xu wanted to leave, but Wu Mingdi shouted, “You’re not allowed to leave. I still have things to ask you.”

Zhou Xu stopped and looked at Wu Mingdi. He emphasised each word as he said, “You can’t order me as you like.”

Wu Mingdi paused. His voice softened as he said, “Wait, I want to talk to you for a moment.”

“No.”

Zhou Xu still left.

No doubt, Zhou Xu liked to watch a show, but this did not mean that he liked to get close to the flames of war. He decided to leave. He would ignore whatever situation was unfolding in the room.

However, there would always be people who could not see this point clearly.

“You’re not allowed to leave.” Sun Qingxia’s gun pointed at Zhou Xu’s head.

Raising both hands, Zhou Xu slowly turned and said, “Seems like you’ve prepared some weapons.”

Sun Qingxia had a look of helplessness on her face. She knew that the weapons in her room had been found by Zhou Xu, hence she simply nodded her head, “Then it’s best for you to be more well behaved.”

Zhou Xu had to give it to Sun Qingxia. In this situation, why was she making him stay? She really wanted to let him watch the show?

Didn’t she want him to leave just now? Just because Wu Mingdi wanted him to stay behind, she would rather take her gun out and force him? Is she intending to shed all pretenses with Wu Mingdi?

Yes, Zhou Xu felt that this was about shedding pretenses, not about killing him. Zhou Xu judged that Sun Qingxia would definitely not be able to go through with murder. Looking at the conflict in her eyes, Zhou Xu was certain that even if she took up her gun, even if she pointed it at his temple, she absolutely would not be able to pull the trigger.

He retreated a few steps towards the back of the open kitchen. Standing to the side, he acted as a spectator. The two actors on stage had remarkable voices and expressions, making it an immersive experience.

Wu Mingdi’s eyes widened. He truly dared not believe that his gentle younger sister would really take a gun out, but one was already aimed at him.

Sun Qingxia trembled while holding the gun; she could not control herself. She dejectedly lowered her gun.

“Qingxia, you really want to kill me?” Wu Mingdi softly asked Sun Qingxia. His tone was full of sorrow.

“Yes, I want to kill you. I want to avenge my parents.”

Zhou Xu really wanted to add something: why did you find Wu Mingdi for revenge and not his parents?

Zhou Xu thought for a while. Because she did not have parents, she unexpectedly chose not to harm Ding Zhaolin’s parents. Zhou Xu kept his mouth shut. If you try to guide someone who insists on closing her eyes, you may incur this person’s resentment.

“But, Qingxia, I’m your elder brother. You prepared so many weapons all to deal with me?” Wu Mingdi’s voice began to shake. No matter what feelings he currently had for Sun Qingxia, he had truly always loved his younger sister.

Tears began to fall from Sun Qingxia’s face. Her pretty face had a heart rending look of despair. Perhaps, Zhou Xu thought, Sun Qingxia had been seeking death from start to end. She wanted to free herself from her own conflicting feelings.

Inhaling deeply, Sun Qingxia calmed down and said to Wu Mingdi, “Ge, I’ll give you a gun. I have a gun here too. We have been siblings for so many years. Based on this relationship, we’ll follow the ways of the old: each person with a gun; each gun only has one bullet. In the end, we’ll see who out of the two of us lives, okay?”

Sun Qingxia gave the gun in her hands to Wu Mingdi before she went to take another one.

Wu Mingdi was frozen in place. Zhou Xu knew then that Sun Qingxia really wanted to die.

It was truly laughable. In the previous world, Sun Qingxia also wanted to die, but with Ding Zhaolin’s interference and meddling, Sun Qingxia and Wu Mingdi met armed with weapons. In her extreme grief and indignation, she cut off six of Zhou Xu’s fingers. Wu Mingdi killed Sun Qingxia for Ding Zhaolin to watch.

Afterwards, Ding Zhaolin and Wu Mingdi started to love each other. Sun Qingxia was dead and Zhou Xu was in despair after losing his fingers.

He had taken up a gun and aimed it at Ding Zhaolin, but just as he did so, he was killed by Wu Mingdi.

As a result, Ding Zhaolin and Wu Mingdi finally reached a happy end, sprinting off to a wonderful life. Meanwhile, the dead did not even have a memorial ceremony.

Sun Qingxia raised the gun and aimed it at Wu Mingdi’s head. She spoke with a tremble in her voice, “I will call you Ge for the last time. Ge, this time, let me go first.”

Wu Mingdi closed his eyes, as if waiting for death, “Okay.”

“Ge, you should come to your senses. The feelings you have for me are not love. But I still like you, Ge. In the next world, let’s truly be brother and sister.”

“Peng!”

The sound of a gunshot reverberated.

Wu Mingdi was fine. He opened his eyes and saw a Sun Qingxia with a face full of tears.

“Ge, it’s your turn.”

Wu Mingdi’s tears welled up as he slowly raised the gun in his hands.

Zhou Xu could not stand watching anymore. What kind of show was this? The male and female protagonist kept procrastinating and dilly dallying. Zhou Xu thought, this should be the most boring show he had ever watched.

Wu Mingdi’s index finger was placed on the trigger. He was prepared to pull it, but at this moment, the fruit knife in Zhou Xu’s hands flew out, landing right on Wu Mingdi’s arm.

In an instant, blood poured out. Wu Mingdi held his arm closely and retreated to a corner.

Zhou Xu came out and walked to Wu Mingdi. He pulled out the fruit knife from his arm.

“Don’t worry, I didn’t damage your artery. If you stop the blood properly, you won’t die.” Zhou Xu said to Wu Mingdi.

Zhou Xu turned to speak to Sun Qingxi, “Take it as you’ve already died once. Now you can be reborn; you have no relations with anyone anymore. Go and live your life.”

Sun Qingxia dazedly looked at Zhou Xu and did not react for quite a while. She did not understand: what already died once? What was being reborn? What go and live her own life? Was her life so far not her own?

Casually finding a piece of cloth, Zhou Xu walked to Wu Mingdi’s side and squatted to help staunch his wound. As a result, something was pressed against the back of his head.

Hehe. Zhou Xu felt that he may be sick. He knew that Sun Qingxia was suffering from her own actions yet he wanted to wake her up. Ridiculous. He should have known: you can never wake up a person pretending to sleep.

“I want to kill you. You unexpectedly dare to treat my elder brother…”

Sun Qingxia had not finished speaking when a gunshot cut her off.

Wu Mingdi watched as Sun Qingxia collapsed. He was in a daze.

Zhou Xu turned his head and laughed upon seeing the incoming person, “Welcome, welcome, but do you know there’s still someone behind you?”

Mu Xinhua smiled and said, “Of course.”
