Free Web NovelChapter 379: Chapter 264: Equivalent Punishment
Qi Ling let out a light laugh, looking at the baseball bat in Dongdong’s hand, she asked, "Was it you who knocked me out at the factory earlier?"
Dongdong said proudly, "That’s right, I’m best at ambushes. Other than the boss, there’s no one I can’t catch off guard."
Qi Ling turned to look at Future, examining her white lab coat, "So you’re the one who created the Luo Mingsheng replica bionic robot and set me up?"
Future flashed a ’Yeah’ sign with her fingers.
"You at Edge sure have some talented people, each showcasing their unique skills." Qi Ling raised an eyebrow at KK and asked with interest, "And what about you? What’s your contribution to this operation?"
KK did nothing this time except help tidy up the bombed lab, he was left speechless.
After hesitating for a while, he decided to play it off nonchalantly, and boldly said, "I’m just lazing around, got a problem?"
Dongdong glared and said, "Trying to sow discord, are you? Captured alive and still playing mind games? Watch me teach you a lesson!"
After she spoke, she found a sharp little knife in the cupboard and aggressively walked towards Qi Ling.
KK hurriedly stopped her, "The big boss isn’t back yet; this isn’t a good idea, right?"
Dongdong grinned maliciously, "What are you afraid of? I’m not stabbing her, just messing around. Heard this one doesn’t feel pain, let’s conduct a little experiment."
Dongdong grabbed Qi Ling’s bound hand and made a small cut at her fingertip.
Blood oozed out, Qi Ling remained unfazed, her finger didn’t even twitch.
Dongdong exclaimed in surprise, "Look, she’s really not afraid of pain! Whoa, this is one heck of a constitution!"
Qi Ling glanced at her sideways and said, "How boring, are you an elementary schooler? Well, judging by your height, you do look like one. What grade are you in this year, little kid?"
Dongdong’s face changed, she grabbed the baseball bat by the wall corner, "I’m gonna beat you to death! Arghhh!!!"
KK quickly wrapped himself around her waist to stop her, "Ah, you said you were just messing around, but you got triggered yourself. So embarrassing..."
Qi Ling turned again to KK, after observing him for a moment she smiled warmly and said, "Miss, you’re so cute! I bet a lot of guys must like you~"
KK glared angrily, snatched the baseball bat from Dongdong’s hand, and charged over cursing, "I’ve said it a billion times! I’m not a miss, I’m a guy!!!"
"So what if men like me? Is that my fault?! It’s not like I don’t want to look more masculine! My parents gave me this face, what can I do?!"
Dongdong kicked KK’s butt, "Spoken like a hypocrite, you got triggered too!"
Watching the two messing around, Qi Ling stuck out the tip of her tongue, showing a wicked kitty-like grin.
Future couldn’t stand it any longer and sighed, saying, "You two stop fooling around. Just ignore whatever she says, it’s like you didn’t hear it."
Qi Ling turned to Future and suddenly said, "Panda!"
Future: "Mm."
Qi Ling: "Mouse person!"
Future: "Oh."
Qi Ling: "Little trinket!"
Future: "Whatever."
Seeing Future’s indifferent appearance, letting words go in one ear and out the other, Qi Ling was somewhat at a loss.
After a moment of contemplation, Qi Ling suddenly said, "Your experimental data has a BUG!"
"What?!" Future jumped anxiously, "No way! Absolutely impossible!"
Qi Ling grinned mischievously, "How about considering letting me loose? I’ll tell you where the BUG is."
Future calmed down, sat back down, returning to her original composed demeanor, "Forget it, if there’s a BUG, there’s a BUG. No experiment can be one hundred percent error-free, I’ll just troubleshoot slowly later." freewebnσvel.cѳm
Qi Ling immediately showed a face full of disdain, "Ugh...you’re so boring, teasing you is no fun."
Future yawned, ignored her, continuing to comb the little mouse’s fur with a comb.
At this moment, Su Mo’s voice came from the doorway, "You’re quite good at socializing, you got close to them so quickly."
Qi Ling leaned her head back, displaying a happy smile, "Hey, you’re finally here, I’ve missed you these days."
Su Mo: "Mm, I’ve missed you too."
"Bang!"
He kicked over Qi Ling’s chair, crouching on the ground and gazing down at her, "Wanted to catch you out and give you a good lesson sooner."
Silver hair cascaded over Qi Ling’s face, she half-smiled, her calm tone seemingly provoking, "Then come and do it."
Su Mo grabbed Qi Ling’s throat suddenly, forcing her to the ground.
"Laughing at a time like this, thinking we’re still playing that couple’s game?"
Qi Ling was tightly gripped by Su Mo, not struggling or resisting, rather she relaxed entirely, as if receiving a gentle caress.
Her amber eyes reflected Su Mo’s face, she displayed a desolate smile, murmuring with difficulty, "Dying by your hand...that’s okay..."
Time quietly passed, pressure on the neck’s blood vessels led to brain hypoxia, darkness quickly flooded her vision, yet she remained motionless, allowing Su Mo to kill her.
Just as Qi Ling’s consciousness blurred from strangulation, Su Mo suddenly let go, "It’s pointless."
"Cough...cough cough cough..." Qi Ling sharply inhaled, collapsing on the ground and coughing incessantly.
Su Mo sighed, "No resistance at all, like a puppet, it’s really dull to teach a lesson."
Qi Ling pressed the corner of her lips against her shoulder, wiping off the saliva that had emerged just now, deliberately displaying a dreamy smile, and in an insinuating tone, "You like it when people resist, huh? I’ll show you how, okay~"
Su Mo: "Aren’t you afraid I’ll really kill you?"
Qi Ling: "What if you really kill me?"
Su Mo: "Then your revenge plan fails. Luo Mingsheng, the chief culprit, is still alive, if you die before him, don’t you feel you’ve let Xiaoqi down?"
Qi Ling’s smile carried a chill, "If I die, I die, the virus won’t disappear. It will continue to spread across the network, any intelligent machine in the world will spare no effort to hunt down Luo Mingsheng."
