Billionaire's Long Journey of Chasing His Love-Chapter 429 - 375: Sacrificed (Second Update)

"Hehe... Tingting, both of us are ’dead’!" Yi Luowa laughed as she patted Leng Chuting on the arm. "Let go of me."

"Yi Luowa!" Leng Chuting fumed, breathing heavily. "Do you know what your actions mean?"

Yi Luowa pursed her lips. "Of course I do. If this were a real battlefield, you and I would’ve gone down together."

"You knew, and you still did it!" Leng Chuting threw down the scissors in her hand and quickly pulled on a pair of pajamas from the bed.

Yi Luowa said with resolute determination, "If it were a real battlefield, I’d have even more reason to do it! I would never let the enemy use me as a bargaining chip to negotiate with Tong Airui."

Leng Chuting shot her a glare. "If you run into real enemies, they won’t be as polite as I am!"

"Exactly, that’s why I used this method on you. For real enemies, I’d use another approach. Either way, I won’t let anyone use me to threaten my husband." Yi Luowa grinned at Leng Chuting. "Trading my life for the enemy commander’s? Totally worth it!"

As the two were talking, Tong Airui burst in carrying a sniper rifle. "Wife, are you out of your mind? I’d already found the best range for the shot, so why would you go for mutual destruction?"

"It’s not like it’s for real..."

Tong Airui stormed over and grabbed her by the arm. "Say that again!"

Yi Luowa pouted. "Husband, what’s wrong? Are you mad?"

"What do you think! What you did insults me—don’t you trust I could save you?"

"It’s not that I don’t trust you!" Yi Luowa tugged on Tong Airui’s hand forcefully. "Tingting isn’t well; I wanted to end this quickly."

"You always have an excuse!" Tong Airui gripped her tightly, yelling, "This is just an exercise. On the battlefield, you’d really end up dead! Have you ever thought about me? If you’re gone, how do you expect me to live?"

"Husband, on the real battlefield, I’d wait until the very last moment. But if I still couldn’t escape being a hostage, I’d still choose mutual destruction in the end. I wouldn’t put you in a tough spot, and I definitely wouldn’t want you to compromise with the enemy because of me."

"You’re such an idiot!" The more Tong Airui listened, the angrier he got. Clearly, this silly girl still needed serious training. That explosion earlier felt like a direct blow to his heart, suffocating him with pain, yet here she was with no sign of remorse.

"Husband, I’m not an idiot! I do this because I always remember that I’m a member of the Audrey family..."

"Enough! Fool that I am for marrying such a good wife, and here you’re being all troublesome!" Leng Chuting smacked Tong Airui on the hand. "Your wife has tender skin, stop grabbing her like that! Go and call the doctor for me—I need to recover quickly. Otherwise, when I get home, my mom and mother-in-law wouldn’t let me hold Mu Xiaobao."

"Not calling anyone!" Tong Airui glared at her. "Who told you to stir up trouble for no reason!"

"You’re allowed to mess with us, but we can’t fight back? I bet your brother-in-law that you’d make a concession for Luowa, but who knew this girl would play me like that." Leng Chuting glanced at Yi Luowa. "What weapon was that just now?"

"I had Aino make it for me. Loud enough, eh? Haha... Tingting, look at you, your face and hair are covered in red paint!"

Leng Chuting rolled her eyes angrily. "You’re no better off than I am!"

Yi Luowa looked down at her clothes. "Haha..."

"All you do is laugh!" Tong Airui raised a hand to ruffle her hair. "Go wash up."

"What about Tingting?"

"Let her go home like that!" Tong Airui snorted, then turned to Yuan Hang, who had just run in. "Launch the final assault. Wipe out Death Reapers within twenty-four hours!"

Yi Luowa chuckled, "Yuan Hang, before you launch the final offensive, make sure to announce Tingting’s ’death’ to them."

"You little devil!" Leng Chuting laughed angrily and climbed back onto the bed. "Get the doctor for me."

"Got it~" Yi Luowa dashed out.

Leng Chuting slanted a glance at Tong Airui, who was still standing there staring at her coldly. "Still standing there staring at this ’corpse’? Aren’t you supposed to launch the final attack?"

"I’m planning to kill you again—with my eyes!" Tong Airui snorted, turning his face away.

Leng Chuting burst into laughter. "You’ve got another option—you can desecrate the corpse! Airui, your wife is really great!"

"Like I need you to tell me!" Tong Airui stomped out of the room, puffing with anger.

After two IV drips, Yi Luowa cheerfully ran back in. "Tingting, I’ve got good news for you!"

Leng Chuting’s mouth twitched. "Captured my husband alive?"

"Haha... Smart!"

"Sigh... With our supply lines cut, holding out this long without surrendering isn’t shameful. Finally, I can go home to see my little treasure!"

Yi Luowa blinked and said with a smile, "Everyone says you’re cold and don’t like talking to others. But to me, you’re just fine!"

Leng Chuting laughed, "People change. After having Mu Xiaobao, I realized I’ve become more warmhearted."

"Tingting, if I’m such a chatterbox now, will I become less talkative after having kids?"

"Once you have kids, you’ll love talking even more. With a baby around, there’s never a dull moment."

"Honey... are you okay?" Mu Heyang’s voice came from outside the door.

Yi Luowa laughed, "Your brother-in-law is here. I’ll have someone make you something good to eat."

Yi Luowa exited the tent, greeted Mu Heyang, and headed straight for the kitchen.

In the end, this exercise concluded with the resounding success of the Summer Witches’ Blade. Looking at the champion trophy sitting securely in the operations room, Tong Airui couldn’t help but smile.

But even as joy filled his face, he couldn’t let go of Yi Luowa’s decision to choose mutual destruction with the enemy. He had his own way of educating his wife, and that was to tirelessly give her a hard time.
