Farming in the Apocalypse: My Assassin Wife is Super Gentle 116

Chapter 116: Heh, Being Schemed Against Again

After thinking for a while, Zhang Can’er said, “I think it is the Golden Rope Connection. Perhaps the leader has changed and felt that the red clothes were not good-looking, so they were changed.”

Xiao Huan’s eyes lit up. She felt that this was indeed possible.

“There is this possibility. After all, their martial arts are superb. Out of a thousand ability users, only three hundred were left after being killed. Only the Golden Rope Connection can achieve this number,” Wan Feng nodded in agreement.

“Then what do you think their purpose is?” Xiao Huan asked.

“Purpose? Aren’t they helping Li Yitian? Isn’t the purpose to stop us from going to the island?” Zhang Wan asked with a frown.

Xiao Huan shook her head. “The Golden Rope Connection is a family organization and will not be controlled by anyone. They accept orders from anyone, but they also look at the benefits. If they can’t get any good, they won’t accept it. An operation like this time is definitely the kind that won’t get any good. I don’t understand why they still accepted it. For money? There’s no need. Their money is probably more than mine.”

Zhang Can’er didn’t want to use her brain. She just leaned against Wan Feng’s shoulder, planning to just listen and not speak.

But Xiao Huan didn’t seem to want to let her go. “Miss Can, do you have any thoughts?”

Zhang Can’er had to use her brain. “Hmm… if my previous guess is correct, then the one who organized the Golden Rope Connection this time is probably the new leader. Perhaps it’s a person who only knows their immediate interests, which is why they accepted this order.”

“Miss Can can always make my eyes light up. If your guess is correct, then it means that there is a problem within the Golden Rope Connection. Maybe the previous leader is already dead.”

Zhang Can’er nodded. She always felt that their topic was a bit off. Shouldn’t they be discussing how to deal with Li Yitian now? And they should apologize to her.

And just as she was thinking about these things, Bo He, who was lying on the carpet, woke up. He sat up and looked at the few people sitting on the sofa with a dazed expression, his head full of question marks.

“Why am I here? Why are you all here too? Oh my! You’re going to the island. If you don’t go, what will happen to the people inside? I’ve been waiting for you to come over on your own. I…”

“Alright, I’ll have someone else go and save those people. You sit down first.”

Xiao Huan interrupted him, her voice showing no emotion.

“Someone else? Who? Shen Fanmeng has sent you down. Xiao Feng and the others have just finished fighting, and some of the people around you have also been sent out. Who else can you send to save them?”

“I’ll go myself.”

“Nonsense! If you go, who will be in charge?”

“Just let Dongyun come.”

Bo He was instantly rendered speechless. In the end, he was so angry that he lay directly on the ground, a look of giving up on his face.

“Fine, let Sister Tang come. Let’s see if she agrees.”

Tang Dongyun, who had been silent all this time, glanced at Xiao Huan, a warning in her eyes.

Xiao Huan didn’t dare to look at her at all. After glaring at Bo He, she said with a firm and non-negotiable tone, “I’m almost ready. You don’t have to persuade me. I’ll take people to the island later.”

Zhang Can’er looked at these people as if she were watching a play. Anyway, she wouldn’t ask a single question. Wasn’t this clearly baiting her? Did they really think she was stupid?

“Since you have something to do, then we’ll be leaving. I’m a little hungry. Yajun, you go and book a place first.”

Ke Yajun nodded blankly, but she was still very curious. So she leaned into Zhang Can’er and asked, “Sister Can, who are they going to save on the island?”

“How would I know? It’s none of our business. You should ask less.”

“Oh, oh, then we’ll be leaving.”

Seeing that Ke Yajun and Zhuang Jiayuan were really about to leave, Bo He quickly stopped them. He said with a smile, “You few, do me a favor.”

Zhang Can’er looked at him with a blank expression and didn’t speak. But Wan Feng’s eyes suddenly turned cold, and she had already taken out her knife.

Seeing this scene, Bo He quickly knelt down and said seriously, “I know it’s my fault for scheming against you, but only you can save the people on the island. I’m begging you, okay?”

At this moment, Xiao Huan also walked over and said with her head down, “We have no other choice. I swear this is the last time. As long as you are willing, I will do my best to fulfill any of your requests in the future.”

Tang Dongyun rolled her eyes at her, pulled her back, and looked at Zhang Can’er gently. “Miss Can doesn’t need to feel burdened. Whether you are willing or not, we won’t force you. Bo He! Get out of the way!”

Bo He reluctantly moved out of the way. He wanted to say something, but he was glared at by Tang Dongyun, and his mouth obediently closed.

Zhang Can’er sighed and looked at Tang Dongyun with a smile. “Have you been in a high position for too long? Have you forgotten how to treat people with sincerity?”

Tang Dongyun lowered her eyes and said in a low voice, “I had no other meaning in what I just said. It was just the literal meaning. You can leave if you want.”

“Leave? I’ve already heard everything. How can I leave? You people, you’re really good at using good people. If you had just sat down and talked about cooperation sincerely, I wouldn’t have been so angry.”

Bo He looked up and quickly glanced at Zhang Can’er, then pouted and retorted in a low voice, “You might not have agreed if we had talked about cooperation.”

Hearing his words, Xiao Huan’s face turned green with anger. She walked to Bo He’s side and directly pushed him out.

Out of sight, out of mind. To avoid messing things up.

Zhang Can’er, on the other hand, had heard Bo He’s words. She was so angry she almost laughed. They might not have agreed if they had talked about cooperation. With such a scheme, they would definitely agree because they were forced to and had no choice but to agree.

“Lord Xiao really has a capable and good strategist,” Zhang Can’er said sarcastically.

“He’s not anymore. You can deal with him however you want in the future,” Xiao Huan didn’t dare to say anything. First, she had indeed been wrong before. She should admit her mistake. There was no problem at all. Second, she really needed these few people, Zhang Can’er, now. She was thinking of trying her best to meet their requests. It was right for Bo He to suffer a little.

Zhang Can’er was speechless. She pulled Wan Feng to the sofa and sat down, then deliberately asked, “Would you agree if I asked him to hang himself?”

“This… how about another request? As long as it’s not to kill him.”

Zhang Can’er rolled her eyes at her. “Tell me, what happened on the island?”

Xiao Huan immediately walked over, pulled Tang Dongyun to sit down, and then said, “The people inside were originally participating in the open test. But Li Yitian took advantage of my inattention and let those people in. And he also closed the entrance and exit of the island to threaten me to release the news that the open test was terminated.”

“And on the island, Li Yitian has arranged for three thousand elite troops to guard it. Our people also got the news with great difficulty, and many people died because of it.”

After hearing this, Zhang Can’er always felt that Li Yitian was courting death. If something happened inside the island, his elite troops would be gone. From an objective point of view, Li Yitian had suffered a great loss.

Wasn’t this a suicide squad of three thousand? He didn’t treat the soldiers as human beings. How did this kind of person have military power?
