Chapter 327
Dumb Insect was scared of three things. It was scared of leaving Min; it was also scared of other insects finding out its differences; and lastly, it was scared of being scolded by Chu Yunsheng.
Amongst those three, the first fear already became a fact. It couldn’t be changed. After it reunited with Chu Yunsheng and grouped up with Old Purple, it was no longer worried about its second fear. But the last fear, it was the fear that it was worried the most. It was often worried about if it did something wrong, Chu Yunsheng would scold it.
So when Chu Yunsheng’s tone suddenly became harsh, it immediately stopped talking and moved slowly and reluctantly towards the quiet tomb breeder. It stopped when it was near the tomb breeder and peeked at Chu Yunsheng several times hoping he would change his decision.
“Hurry up,” Dumb Insect’s innocent behavior cracked a smile in Chu Yunsheng’s heart. He was doing it for its own good, but Dumb Insect acted like he was going to kill him.
However, Dumb Insect’s next question caught him completely off guard. “… Are… You… going… to… leave… me?… You… do… not… want… me… anymore?…”
Chu Yunsheng’s body suddenly trembled. He looked at Dumb Insect, didn’t believe that it would ask this question.
“Dumb Insect, you know that in this world, there are a lot of things we have no control over with… There are things you still don’t know, and I’ll tell you in the future. You will be able to understand it at that time,” Chu Yunsheng said helplessly.
“…I… do… not… understand… It…” Dumb Insect felt lost.
Lee Hongchi did not respond to his son immediately after his son fished talking. “Taidou, if what you said is real, it is too late now. They are probably already on to us,” he sighed after a long silence.
“Father!…” Lee Taidou instantly stood up in shock.
“Sit and listen to me. She definitely had my background checked when the auction finished that day. So they definitely knew who I am. I think there are probably two main reasons why they have not arrested me yet. The first reason is that you are a Rank A energy practitioner and your colleagues, friends, and comrades in the department would make them think twice before arresting me. The second reason is that it probably is not the time to arrest me just yet,” Lee Hongchi said slowly.
Lee Taidou knitted his brows while listening to his father. His father was right, with Chu Clan’s power in Hong Kong, they probably already found out everything.
“No. Father, it is too dangerous to stay here, we need to leave.” Lee Taidou suddenly lost his composure. When it was about the life and death of his parents. Even if he had received years of SDU training, he still panicked.
Lee Hongchi on the other hand, laughed, “leave? Where can we go? We are surrounded by the insects.”
“We can take a boat, we can go to Macau. I have heard from food search teams saying that the insects have pulled out from Macau,” Lee Taidou immediately said.
Lee Hongchi shook his head and sighed, “we don’t know if they will let us leave or not, let alone dealing with the monsters in the sea.”
“Listen to me first, Taidou, are you sure that you did not feel anything when you are close to the bow?” Lee Hongchi stopped Lee Taidou who was about to talk and asked.
“Only sometimes, but not strong. Besides, before it unleashed its power, it was just an ordinary bow, no one would pay much attention to it,” Lee Taidou answered.
“Then, don’t worry that much, they will only come for me. If anything happened, don’t do anything stupid. Think about your mother, and everyone in the family. I am an old man. I don’t have many days left,” Lee Hongchi smiled.
“Father!..” Lee Taidou was about to say something, but he was immediately interrupted by his father again.
“If you think I am still your father, then just listen to me this time. Also, don’t tell your mother about it. Don’t make her worried. I don’t owe anyone anything in my entire life except your mother. I have done so many stupid things when I was young. I owe her more than just an apology… You need to learn from my mistakes, don’t make your mother worried, do you understand…” Lee Hongchi said.
“Father…” Lee Taidou hugged his father and said while his heart was in pain. At that moment, all the estrangements between them vanished, leaving only just love…
