924: Unbearable

Unbearable

Could it be that Gu Mingzhe had yet to bring Zhong Qianqian back to the Nangong family after staying in Emperor District for so long?1

Impossible!

"I'm just a god-granddaughter that he acknowledges in a whim; there's no need to make it grand. Also, I'm not here to rescue you. I just happen to have a grudge against these people."

The four Nangong brothers, "..."

Why did it feel like their Little Princess Nuannuan disliked them?

Why?

Sob...

How their heart hurt!

Noticing the piercing coldness from their little sister, the four siscons' [1]eyes started to brim with tears.

How they wanted to wrap their arms around their little sister and burst into tears! They would give everything to acknowledge her as their family in this instant.

Bang!

While the four brothers were still struggling internally, Zhong Nuannuan raised her gun and sent another man's head exploding.

It was the same man who received Matchmaker's instructions to find out what the situation was outside.

Nuannuan and her squad wiped out all the killers on this side of the island. None of them survived with the help of her X-ray vision. Thus began Nuannuan's arduous wait for another killable living thing. Zhong Nuannuan harbored a lot of pent-up anger as she recalled the suffering that she had to go through in her previous life. Now that there was someone she could kill, she ended him without hesitation.

"Let's go."

Zhong Nuannuan summoned Selina and the other two as they started making their way toward Matchmaker.

The Nangong brothers hurriedly followed after her.

Zhong Nuannuan halted in her path after taking a few steps.

She could not help feeling awkward and anxious with these four behind her tail.

"I'll save the two children. You guys wait here."

"But…" Nangong Ze still wanted to say something.

"No buts," Nuannuan snapped at the young master she hated the most. "I don't like people questioning me. Don't forget, without me, even you won't be able to escape death, children aside."

The little princess yelled at Nangong Ze.

Not only did the little princess yell at him, she even gave him a look of disdain.

His heart was bleeding.

As soon as Zhong Nuannuan finished speaking, she saw four pairs of eager eyes staring after her. It was the same sad eyes puppies would have when they wanted to follow their master but were afraid of being scolded. In the face of imminent abandonment, they wanted nothing in the world but to follow their master. Even so, they were afraid that it would only make their master loathe them even more.

Despair, helplessness, and a look of endless grievance were written all over their faces.

This was especially so for Nangong Ze, who had just been told off. How dare this annoying man looked at her with such pitiful and watery eyes.

Damnit…

What happened to the domineering attitude he showed her before?

What happened to his previously conflicted self?

Where was the swagger he used to have?

There was nothing on his face—only the looks of a man who was about to burst into tears because she told him off.

Zhong Nuannuan, "…"

She could not stand the look in his eyes.

Ugh! So angry! Now, Nuannuan was the conflicted one!

If Big Brother Chi Yang was here, Nuannuan would have leaped into his arms and block the whole world out.

Yet, now that Big Brother Chi Yang was not around, she could only raise her defensive thorns herself.

However, why did these people not suppress her with their domineering aura?

Why did they not?

Finally, Nuannuan could no longer stand the pitiful gazes of these four men. She turned around and left angrily.

After walking for quite a distance, she noticed that the four men did not follow her, per her demand. However, Zhong Nuannuan could feel that with every step she took that put distance between her and the men, the gaze that was almost tangible on her back became one level more intense.

Finally, Miss Nuannuan could not hold it in anymore.

She turned around and shouted at the four pitiful puppies, "What are you waiting for?!"

When the four Nangong brothers heard this, they broke into smiles and followed Nuannuan immediately without holding any grudges against her.

Looking at their expressions that changed so drastically, Zhong Nuannuan suppressed her urge to beat them all up!

[1] 'Siscon' is short for 'sister complex', which is a state of strong attachment and obsession to sisters.
