Officer Li spoke with conviction, but when he saw the tattered robot on the ground, his heart sank into endless confusion...
Could he really find a master to repair this robot?
But what could he do if he didnât make such a promise? Would he let the Emperor dismiss him now?
Officer Li gritted his teeth and decided that no matter how much money and resources he spent, he had to repair this robot first.
Previously, he had wholeheartedly thought that Nono was a piece of scrap metal and wanted to send Nono to be smelted. Now, it seemed that he still had to beg Bodhisattva to protect Nonoâs key chip.
As long as the key chip was not broken, all the memories and abilities of this robot would not have any problems. Repairing the surface of the body was just a small matter.
When Officer Li comforted himself like this, he did not understand how valuable Nonoâs configuration was. When he found out that a large portion of Nono was of silver tear ore, Officer Li was already on the verge of tears.
Silver tear ore was an ore that was hard to come by. If he had known earlier, he definitely would not have let people shoot this robot.
What a mistake!
He was afraid that he would have to go bankrupt and constantly find people to pull strings from the Siswell family!
Officer Li sighed. He knew that he had been beaten to death, but by the time he came to his senses, there was nothing he could do.
Now, he was just hoping that the robot could be restored, and then Su Wan and Ming Ye would be caught and brought to justice!
...
On Planet Lanhe, in a desolate suburb.
It was currently evening. The sun was setting in the west, flashing across the horizon with endless brilliance. Although it was not as dazzling as the afternoon sun, it had a different charm.
Because her lungs were filled with water, Su Wan found it difficult to breathe. However, the most uncomfortable thing was not her heavy body, but her heart that was riddled with holes.
Su Wan did not know how she came to the surface. Because of Nonoâs matter, even her desire to live was exhausted.
If Ming Ye had not dragged her along the way, Su Wan might not be a person now.
She should be a skeleton floating at the bottom of the water.
Thinking of Nono, whose life or death was unknown, Su Wanâs heart stopped, and her eyes kept turning red, almost falling into tears.
Actually, what was the point of living like this?
Was she really a jinx?
All the people she liked and loved had to leave her in the end, no matter if it was a person or an object.
Her parents died in a car accident; after being with Jiang Xuecheng, they had also encountered a car accident and many dangerous situations; and Nono died because of her...
Su Wan was already possessed. The more she thought about it, the more hopeless she felt.
Perhaps it was right for her to leave Jiang Xuecheng. At the very least, she would not let Jiang Xuecheng take any more risks for her.
...
Ming Ye could not help but frown when he saw Su Wan trying hard to hold back her tears.
Women were troublesome.
Even Su Wan was no exception. She looked strong, but she was actually very weak deep down.
Su Wanâs family background was not bad since she was young. She should have stayed in the greenhouse for her whole life. She did not expect that she would escape with him now...
Ming Ye stood up and walked to Su Wanâs side.
âAre you okay?â
When she heard this low voice, Su Wanâs heart jumped violently!
If she did not look up and see Ming Yeâs green eyes, she would have mistakenly thought that Jiang Xuecheng was by her side!
Su Wanâs self-esteem was a little strong. She hated to expose her weak side in front of people she was not familiar with the most. However, whenever she thought of Nono, she could not stop her tears.
Su Wan could only keep raising her head and restrain them from falling out of her eyes.
âIâm sorry, Iâve made a fool of myself.â
Su Wan reached out and wiped her eyes. Her throat was dry, and her beautiful voice became choked with sobs.
Ming Ye heard Su Wan trying to suppress her emotions. He did not know why, but his heart felt stifled, and his emotions became even more agitated.
He had lived until now, and he did not have much experience in being alone with women. The only time before that was when he was running for his life at the bottom of the boat.
It was really funny. Every time he met Su Wan, it was not romantic. Instead, it was filled with blood and killing intent.
Ming Ye looked straight at Su Wan. He could easily read the haze in Su Wanâs heart from her expression.
âDonât you think that weâre both in a very difficult situation right now?â
Ming Ye did not know how to say pleasant words to comfort Su Wan. He could only use his own method to try to divert Su Wanâs attention.
Su Wan was stunned when she heard that. She raised her head in a daze.
She saw that Ming Yeâs body was covered in water, and there was some mud on his handsome face.
Indeed, they were both in a sorry state now.
Suddenly, Su Wan saw the torn sleeve on Ming Yeâs shoulder. There was still blood dripping from it.
Su Wanâs pupils contracted. She suddenly stood up and looked at Ming Yeâs shoulder.
She did not notice that Ming Ye was also shot! It was on his left shoulder!
âYouâve been shot?!â
Su Wan looked at Ming Ye in disbelief. She did not understand how this man had grown up!
He could be so relaxed even when he was shot. Moreover, he had dragged her all the way!
Seeing Su Wanâs shocked and worried expression, Ming Ye shrugged his shoulders and looked down at his shoulder.
âItâs really a small wound this time. Those people probably didnât even load the bullets to kill you because they were afraid of accidentally injuring you. They only used it to wear down your stamina.â
âIt can be used against ordinary people, but with my physique... Iâve already dug out the bullet...â
How did he dig it out?
Su Wan didnât dare to ask further.
When she heard Ming Yeâs words, she was both frightened and pained. If he dug it out like this, why didnât this man bandage it?
Su Wan glared at Ming Ye in annoyance.
âWait here. Iâll go find some herbs for you to apply. I remember when I just floated up, I saw some by the river. Itâs not far from here!â
Without waiting for Ming Ye to say anything, Su Wan ran out by herself. Like a wisp of smoke, the wind dispersed as soon as it blew.
...
Ming Ye stood rooted to the ground in a daze.
Perhaps the more unattainable something was, the more eager he was to get it.
When he was born, he had stayed in that cold laboratory and became a human-shaped machine for those people to analyze data. He had no dignity as a human, and no one cared about him as much as Su Wan did.
Heh, those lackeys that were personally groomed by the high priest were all eager to use his body for various experiments. Who would care if he was in pain?
When Ming Ye thought of this, he immediately clenched his fists. The emeraldâs eyes flashed with a cold light. It was extremely bloodthirsty!
If anyone saw this, they would probably be scared to death on the spot.
Ming Ye swore that one day, he would personally kill those people!
Ming Ye looked at Su Wan, who was squatting down to pick herbs not far away, and the killing intent in his eyes disappeared.
His long eyelashes covered his eyes, causing his emerald pupils to become a little less demonic. They became much more peaceful, but also exceptionally desolate.
If not for this background, he might have wanted to live for himself, but that was impossible.
A person like him was completely unworthy of happiness.
