Chapter 771 - Borrow A Helicopter

Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations

Wu Chengyue had prepared the helicopters for Lin Qiao by the time she arrived at Sea City Base with her troops.

“I only asked to borrow one from you. Why did you prepare so many?” Lin Qiao looked at the three armed transport helicopters on the airfield with surprise. Then, she figured out something and turned to Wu Chengyue while sneering, “No way! Are you going as well? Didn’t you say that you’re not going, that you don’t have that kind of obligation to save the mankind?”

Wu Chengyue failed to respond to her words immediately. After the short silence, he smiled and said, “That was before. Now, things are different… because you are going.”

Lin Qiao rolled her eyes and replied, “You are so annoying! You can follow me if you want, but please don’t let me know. Looking at your show-off face makes me uncomfortable.”

‘This man really doesn’t know what ‘giving up’ means, does he??‘ she thought.

Lin Qiao had almost run out of patience as Wu Chengyue had harassed her for so long. If her base and his weren’t still in cooperation, she might have punched him already.

“Why? You wouldn’t know how much I care for you if I didn’t tell you, would you?” Wu Chengyue said to her smilingly.

The others on the scene were no longer surprised on hearing that. After all, Chief Wu had been pursuing Chief Lu for two months, yet no result was shown at all.

It was already the end of March. The weather was getting warmer and warmer, and winter coats had gone back into closets.

“What’s the difference? I won’t accept you. Aren’t you tired? I am tired. Besides, I promised you something in return when I borrowed this helicopter from you. It’s not like I’m taking advantage of you,” said Lin Qiao coldly. Having finished speaking, she headed straight toward one of the three helicopters. Duan Juan, Ding Datong, Li Hongsheng, Shen Yujen, and some others followed behind her.

The All Beings Base didn’t have pilots. Therefore, Wu Chengyue also lent them a pilot.

Following behind Wu Chengyue were Xiao Licheng, Moli, Huang Ming, and some other people.

Looking at the backs of Lin Qiao and her people, Xiao Licheng laughed, “See? I told you that this won’t work. It’s the opposite of what you want.”

Wu Chengyue turned and looked at him with a smile as he asked, “Do you have a better idea?”

He was unhappy to hear what Xiao Licheng said. Apart from that, he was surprised by Lin Qiao’s words. He never thought that all the efforts he had made would only be a show-off in her eyes.

Wu Chengyue was undoubtedly a little upset.

“In my opinion, she must hate being restrained, as she is such a forceful being. Chief, all you have done might seem like showing off in her eyes. And deep down, she might feel that you’ll affect or limit her. I think that’s why she doesn’t like what you’ve been doing. Thankfully, you didn’t pursue her in a more aggressive way. You’re smart.” Moli was wearing no expressions as she abruptly joined the conversation.

She couldn’t bear watching her Chief go after her for so long without achieving any result and only make their relationship weirder than before.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Chief,” she continued, “If our base wasn’t still in cooperation with hers, I think she’d have beaten you up long ago.”

“Beat me up? Why?” Wu Chengyue looked at her with confusion. He didn’t do anything to hurt her or interfere with her business!

Moli gave him a bland glance. Even when facing her Chief, she was wearing the never-changing cold, expressionless face. “Because you are annoying like a fly. If I were her, I’d beat you until you gave up. If you asked me, I’d say that Miss Lu is too nice.”

Wu Chengyue didn’t know what to say. He wasn’t expecting his subordinate to compare him to a fly.

Xiao Licheng looked at his boss, also feeling speechless.?‘Moli, aren’t you afraid that Chief might get angry? How dare you say that!’

Wu Chengyue looked at Lin Qiao’s back and stayed silent for a long time. At last, he sighed upsettingly.

Was what he had been doing really not working? Or, were they not meant to be together?

On the other side, Duan Juan said to Lin Qiao before getting onto the helicopter, “Chief Wu is really persistent. He knows what you really are, but doesn’t seem to care. I wonder when he will give up.”

She could tell that even though Chief Wu always wore a faint smile on his face, usually no actual smile could be detected from his crescent-like eyes. Only upon seeing Lin Qiao would those eyes of his spark like stars. That wasn’t obvious though.

Even if he didn’t love her deeply, he did have feelings for her, more or less.

Duan Juan was also aware that Wu Chengyue could never win Lin Qiao’s heart by doing what he had been doing. Lin Qiao was not a slow-minded person. She knew about how Yuan Tianxing felt about her all the time. She pretended not to know because she didn’t want to ruin the relationship between him and her. Wu Chengyue’s case was different. She had rejected him clearly for countless times, yet he ignored that every time.

It seemed that he was never tired, but Duan Juan couldn’t tell how long he could keep doing it for.

“Don’t mention him. I can’t even think about him right now. I wonder if his brain-damaged. He actually proposed to me! Can you believe that? What the hell! Do you think he really likes me? I think he did it just for Ling Ling. If he told me that directly, I could heal Ling Ling without asking anything in return, no matter how many years that might take. He doesn’t need to do that in this way. Does he think that I know nothing?” Lin Qiao suffered a headache once she heard Duan Juan mention that.

Wu Chengyue was at a very high-level, and had a strong will power. Therefore, Lin Qiao wasn’t able to read his mind. However, she could see the whole thing from his angle and think about how it might benefit him.

He cared about Ling Ling so much, so Lin Qiao assumed that he had found out that Ling Ling’s condition tended to be more stable when she was with her. Being with Ling Ling made the little girl happier too. So, he might think that Ling Ling would become healthy one day if she could always stay with Lin Qiao.

Lin Qiao never wanted to hurt Ling Ling. She wasn’t a children lover and was never good at dealing with them. However, she liked Ling Ling and had accepted her. If Wu Chengyue asked her to help Ling Ling, she would agree to visit the little girl frequently or even keep her in the All Beings Base.

But, why on earth did he propose to her? What did he mean by giving Viney a healthy family? Why did he insist on making Lin Qiao take responsibility for what Lu Tianyu did? She didn’t even do that!

He also said that he wanted to be responsible for Viney.

He wanted to marry her only for those reasons, right? Would she let him affect her life for those reasons? Would she let him interfere with her things and have half of her space?

She didn’t plan on letting that happen. Even thinking about that made her feel exhausted.

“What will you do if he never gives up? You might be driven crazy by him and suddenly accept him someday,” Duan Juan looked at her and laughed.

Lin Qiao gave her a glance but stayed silent. No matter how crazy she might get, she would not get married, unless that was a rational decision that she made herself.
