BXBX NOVEL Chapter 455 - Xi Kai
Chapter 455 - Xi Kai
"Okay. Take us with you." Yi Bing said and pulled Huo Ling, who was caught off-guard.
Xi Kai turned to him. "You two?" he asked.
"We don\'t have two space ability users, but four." Jin Wu spoke and grinned.
It was Xi Kai\'s turn to fall silent. Even Jenny and Chichi can\'t help but be shocked.
"Oh? You are all interesting." Xi Kai grinned as he looked at the Grim Reapers Team. "Let me introduce myself, then." He rose from his seat. "I am Xi Kai. The only son of Xi Ke, a politician, and Lu Lu, a singer and an actress." He spoke. Seeing no reaction from the Grim Reapers Team while the faces of the Rolling Thunder Team turned red, his eyes narrowed in amusement. The Grim Reapers Team are very interesting. He thought.
Hu Feng helplessly sighed. He was surprised when he first saw Xi Kai and he wanted to take him under his wing to protect him. But, Xi Kai said that he wanted to make his own base. So, although Qi Ming and Xi Kai had a conflict later, he still secretly watched over Xi Kai\'s base.
"Nice to meet you." Yi Bing just said and shook hands with Xi Kai. "I am Yi Bing. This is Huo Ling." My lover. He added in his heart. "We are ice and fire ability users, respectively." He said.
"Oh~? Fire and ice… clashing yet also a good match." Xi Kai said as he smiled. How can he not see the affection in Yi Bing\'s eyes when he glanced at Huo Ling?
As expected, Yi Bing\'s attitude eased after he heard what Xi Kai said. Meanwhile, Qi Ming, this inflexible man with a negative EQ who didn\'t notice Yi Bing\'s crush to Huo Ling, frowned because of Xi Kai\'s flattery. Obviously, Xi Kai wanted to poach the Grim Reapers Team!
Yi Bing knows Qi Ming has grievances. "I will leave Jin Wu and Mo Shi to you. They are also good in fighting. You can feel reassured." He told them.
The faces of the Rolling Thunder Team finally eased.
"Jin Wu. Mo Shi." Yi Bing called.
"Yes, sir!" Mo Shi answered and saluted in a joking way, which made them smile. He really has a bright personality.
"Don\'t worry." Jin Wu said.
"I am Jenny." Jenny introduced herself. "I am his secretary." She said.
"Lan." Lan spoke.
"Chichi." Chichi said as she stared at Yi Bing and Huo Ling.
"I – I am Rei… I am new…" Rei said, feeling nervous.
"You also want to go to the Capital?" Jenny spoke. "Or, do you have somewhere you want to go to? To find your relatives?" she asked.
The Rolling Thunder Team immediately started when they heard her question. That\'s right. What is the Grim Reapers Team\'s objective? They actually want to go to the Capital?
"No." Yi Bing answered. "Sightseeing." He said.
Everyone. "…" what\'s there to fcking see in this apocalypse?! They thought as they wildly cursed in their mind, feeling that Yi Bing is toying with them.
"Actually…" Yi Bing spoke.
They all stared at him.
"We are in our honeymoon period." Yi Bing said as he pulled Huo Ling towards him.
Huo Ling. "…" fck! Not again! He thought as his face darkened.
Everyone. "… oh." They muttered. So they are actually married?! No wonder they are always together! They thought, feeling enlightened. Then… they thought and turned to look at Jin Wu and Mo Shi.
Mo Shi felt a chill on his spine and saw that Jin Wu opened his mouth to speak. He immediately spoke. "We are friends!" he said.
Jin Wu. "…" fck. I was just about to say that!
Everyone. "… oh." So they are just friends… yet.
Mo Shi saw their unconvinced expressions. His face darkened. Fck! What I said is useless! I want to go home! He thought and inwardly cried.
"\'relatives\'…" a voice spoke.
They all turned and saw Qi Ying\'s eyes brightened. "Ge!" Qi Ying called. "Jie. I remembered aunt, uncle and cousin went to the Capital before the apocalypse arrived. Let\'s find… them…" his voice trailed off when he realized what he said. His face paled. "I\'m sorry…" he said and hung his head. It seems that he spoke wrongly again.
Qi Ming helplessly sighed and patted Qi Ying\'s head. "Don\'t worry. We\'ll find them when everything was settled." He said. They have to annex Xi Kai\'s base yet.
"How about he goes with us?" Jenny suggested.
"What?!" the Rolling Thunder Team reacted and glared at her. "Are you…" they said.
Jenny cut them off. "Hey! I\'m speaking out of my kindness here!" she frowned when she saw their reactions. "Who knows if their relatives are still alive at this hour? Or is currently hungry and is about to die? You still want to delay time?" she asked. "I don\'t want to, nor boss. That is why we are going to the Capital. Every second we miss, the possibility of them falling in danger." She said and decided to ignore them.
The Rolling Thunder Team suddenly felt ashamed.
"I\'m going." Qi Ying spoke.
"Qi Ying?!" Qi Ming looked at him in disbelief.
Qi Ying smiled. "Ge. I like cousin. She\'s really good towards me, like aunt and uncle. I… I want to see them immediately to know if they are safe." He explained.
Qi Ming and Qi Ning fell silent. They know that Qi Ying is a soft young man and is easily bullied, that\'s why their aunt and uncle, as well as their cousin, are overprotective of him. Yet, now… "I understand." Qi Ming heavily sighed.
"Ge…" Qi Ning bit her lip. She is reluctant.
"Jie…" Qi Ying hugged her. "I promise. I\'ll be back!" he told her.
Qi Ning\'s eyes reddened and she cried.
"Yi Bing. Huo Ling." Qi Ming called. "Can you…" he feels shy.
"Don\'t worry. We\'ll protect him." Yi Bing spoke. "Xi Kai only wants our space ability and he already has enough people to protect him. We\'ll protect Qi Ying instead." He said.
Qi Ming sighed in relief.
Xi Kai ignored their drama and he turned to Hu Feng. "You can have the earth ability users erect a tall wall surrounding our two bases." He told him.
Hu Feng nodded. "I understand. Thank you." He said.
"Let\'s leave now." Xi Kai spoke as he looked at Yi Bing and Huo Ling. He ignored Qi Ying who hid behind Huo Ling, feeling shy because of what he did before.
Although it was very abrupt, but all the people involved agreed to leave for the Capital right now, so they left. Jin Wu and Mo Shi returned Yi Bing\'s and Huo Ling\'s shares to Hu Feng and Qi Ming, which made both men feel ashamed again. In the end, they decided to allocate Yi Bing\'s and Huo Ling\'s share as part of the rations.
Xi Kai deserves to be the son of an official as his car is a Rover, and is modified. Although he had it modified as a whim, but it became very convenient now in the apocalypse. "Get in." he spoke as he sat in the driver\'s seat.
All the women sat on the back, together with Yi Bing and Huo Ling. Jenny doesn\'t like sitting in the front seat, so she sat with her sisters. That leaves…
"I – I…. excuse me." Qi Ying spoke as he sat in the front seat with his face almost sticking to his chest after he lowered his head in shame. He still feels guilty as to what happened before.
Xi Kai ignored him. "Does any of you know how to drive?" he asked. This shows his dislike towards Qi Ying.
"No." the women answered.
"No." Yi Bing and Huo Ling answered. They really don\'t. And they are lazy to create a driver\'s license.
Xi Kai. "…" fck! Are you playing with me?! Not only does he have to drive for six hours to go to the Capital, but he has to sit beside Qi Ying?! Endure… endure… fcking endure! He inwardly cursed before he started the car. If only he doesn\'t care about his life, he would\'ve drove the car to a ditch!
Jenny is the only one he is familiar with, but she has a trauma sitting in the front seat because of her ex-boyfriend who gone mad and tried to kill her and himself through a car accident. Chichi and Lan also aren\'t fond of sitting in the front seat while he isn\'t familiar with Rei so he can\'t ask her to sit in the front seat. Yi Bing and Huo Ling are a pair. Yi Bing is fond of Huo Ling and Huo Ling might feel jealous if he asks Yi Bing to sit in the front seat.
This only leaves Qi Ying, Qi Ming\'s younger brother and the one who accused him of sexually harassing Qi Ning! Qi Ying\'s face is pale, but he clutched the seatbelt tight. He knows that it was his fault why the Rolling Thunder Team and Fighting Wolves Team fought, so he has to silently endure Xi Kai\'s anger.
