926: Acting Pitiful

Acting Pitiful

As the group of people followed her up the hill, Zhong Nuannuan located the underground room with her X-ray vision almost immediately.1

It was a room that had less than 30 square meters of space. In the room, Nangong Xu and Nangong Ling stood in the middle of the room. Other than the little space facing the door, killers surrounded the whole room as their guns pointed at the two children.

Nangong Ling looked much worse than before. Zhong Nuannuan quickly scanned through Nangong Ling's body with her X-ray vision. Eventually, she discovered that Nangong Ling had a severe case of congenital heart defect. Furthermore, after getting locked up in such a cold place where there was not even a fire to keep her warm, the little girl's illness had already acted up.

Although her elder brother, Nangong Xu, had considerately draped his coat over her, Nangong Ling was still pale from the cold. There was a growing sheen of green and purple on her face.

This child was seriously ill. Zhong Nuannuan frowned and was ready to barge in.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, Nangong Ling seemed to sense Zhong Nuannuan's gaze. She suddenly looked up and met Zhong Nuannuan's gaze.

Zhong Nuannuan paused. At this moment, she was convinced that Nangong Ling saw her.

Then, Zhong Nuannuan made a gesture toward the hill. Her fingers extended to form three, two, and one, and followed by a collapsing movement.

Nangong Ling actually responded with a slight nod.

Zhong Nuannuan suppressed her shock and excitement and quickly took out a pen and paper. She started scribbling on the paper.

She drew the distribution of the killers and the location of the children.

"When we go in later, just shoot at these people. Don't worry about the hostages."

"Yes!"

Selina, Aiden, Dan Qi, and the Young Masters of the Nangong family answered in unison.

This not only surprised Zhong Nuannuan, but also Selina and the two others.

How was it proper for the children's biological father and uncles to agree to Nuannuan's order?

Were they not afraid that something would happen to the children?

After Zhong Nuannuan finished speaking, she added, "The four of you can just watch from the side. You don't have to do anything."

The four Young Masters from the Nangong family, "..."

Was their Little Princess Nuannuan doubtful of their competence?

Seeing the pitiful expression reemerged on their faces, Zhong Nuannuan's heart skipped a beat in spite of herself. She added, "The door is too small for all of you to fit through."

With this explanation, the eyes of the four young masters of the Nangong family lit up again.

"Nuannuan, thanks for going through the trouble, then." Nangong Jin thanked her.

Zhong Nuannuan, "..." She was suddenly at a loss of words.

Therefore, Nuannuan decided not to reply and turned around.

Much to her surprise, even though she had already turned her back to Nangong Jin, she could not help feeling his disappointed gaze burning into her back all because she ignored him. 

Zhong Nuannuan's dismay was real.

Putting her revenge against them aside, she must now speak to them properly and not ignore them now?

What happened to serving some face-smacking revenge to these young masters' faces? How was she going to continue with her revenge?

"It's no trouble. You guys stay here. If anyone escapes, kill on sight."

Finally, Nuannuan yielded to his aggrieved gaze.

"Sure, it's no problem."

As expected, Nangong Jin retracted his sad gaze when he finally received a response from his precious little sister.

Zhong Nuannuan was puzzled. Could it be that Nangong Jin became a major general at such a young age by acting pitiful?

Young and promising generals should be as resolute as her Big Brother Chi Yang, should they not?

Zhong Nuannuan criticized the disappointment she had for Nangong Jin internally. However, she had conveniently forgotten all about her Big Brother Chi Yang's acts of inciting her pity and selling her his cuteness—he begged her to apply ointment on his hands even for a tiny scald and asked for a kiss.
