Chapter 1281 - The Path Of Apocalypse (4)
Chapter 1281: The Path Of Apocalypse (4)
The meeting room turned silent again.
The Elder had its own thoughts. Who knew what those thoughts were?
Did it want revenge or did it have other motives?
After a few rounds of discussion, there was still no progress made. They only knew that the hacker was the Elder.
“Director, do you think that the Elder is watching us now?”
Someone suddenly asked this.
This created a small commotion.
The director nodded silently.
All the devices in the Time Control Department couldn’t be used. Even their communication devices.
“Then…” The person hesitated. “Even if we manage to discuss anything, it will know, right?
Everyone cautiously looked around them.
It didn’t feel good to be under surveillance.
There were some people who had no reaction.
Luo Yan sat lazily in his chair with his standard weird, psychopathic expression.
Qi Yu placed one hand behind Ming Shu’s chair. His sitting position could fight with Luo Yan’s.
Ming Shu placed her hand on her chin and observed the others.
The director knocked on the table. Everyone stopped talking. “Are you saying that we shouldn’t discuss this now?”
“I don’t mean it that way. It knows what we are saying… and the entire Time Control Department is under its control. The technical department can’t take back control, either. We…”
Anyone could hear that he was blaming the technical department. Most of the people here felt unhappy with the technical department too.
The technical department head was furious. He had already explained to everyone why The Elder was destroyed.
Who knew what it had evolved into after all these years?
Even if he hadn’t stopped resisting against the Elder, the Elder would still have won.
The director waved his hand and asked everyone to leave when he noticed that the technical department head was going to start a quarrel with the others. He reminded everyone to be aware of a few things.
All the departments needed someone to lead them so the heads went back.
The technical department would continue to try to gain control back.
There were not many people left in the meeting room.
Xing Hun looked at Ming Shu. “Director, who is this?”
Bai Zhu’s gaze turned cold. He wanted to know too, but he didn’t dare to ask.
“Is that any of your business!” Before the director could reply to him, Qi Yu shouted.
Xing Hun replied slowly, “Lord Nine, I didn’t offend you recently, right?”
Qi Yu just had a fight with Luo Yan so his anger had not dissipated. “You provoked me last time.”
I bear grudges!
Xing Hun: “…”
The director replied, “This is Ming Shu.”
He didn’t continue.
Ming Shu…
Xing Hun repeated the name silently. It was unfamiliar to him.
“Aren’t you very powerful? Why don’t you express your opinion?” Luo Yan said in a sarcastic tone.
He was talking to Ming Shu.
Ming Shu looked at him. “So what if I’m powerful? Why must I help you?”
Luo Yan glanced at Qi Yu. “Lord Nine, are you not going to persuade her?”
Qi Yu glared at him.
Persuade your head!
Did he have the ability to persuade her?
I’m not stupid!
“Little Nine,” the director said, “can you try and see if you can take control of the system back?”
Qi Yu was stunned for a moment. After that, he gave an evil smile. “Are you begging me?”
Luo Yan looked between Qi Yu and the director. He wanted to see who would win today.
The meeting room was so quiet you could hear a pin drop.
Everyone held their breath.
Ming Shu didn’t know what happened between them so she just kept quiet and looked at the young man beside her.
The young man spoke casually, but his arrogance and force of presence could be felt.
“I beg you.”
The young man’s expression changed slightly. He seemed to be furious and sneering at the same time. “I didn’t expect to hear these words from you.”
Ming Shu held his finger.
The young man licked his lips and calmed himself down. He held Ming Shu’s hand back. “I’ll consider it.”
He pulled Ming Shu up. “Don’t enter my room without my permission!”
The director watched as Qi Yu and Ming Shu left. Xing Hun got up and dragged the confused Bai Zhu away.
Luo Yan tidied his clothes and got up. “Sigh, there are so many surprises today.”
The director looked at him. “Luo Yan.”
He sounded as though he was greeting him. His expression was gentle too.
Luo Yan frowned as he waited for the director to finish his sentence.
“The situation now is not good. I hope that you won’t cause any more trouble.” The Elder, the Apocalypse, Ming Shu… all kinds of problems were popping out.
“Me? Causing trouble?” Luo Yan laughed softly. He replied slowly, “Why don’t you ask Ming Shu why the Elder appeared? She might know the answer. As for the Apocalypse… Lord Nine gave one to her.
“All this has nothing to do with me. What trouble am I causing?” Luo Yan walked towards the door. Before he left, he turned back. “As compared to Lord Nine, I’m very obedient. Right, Qi He?”
The metal door of the meeting room closed slowly.
…
Luo Yan walked out of the meeting room. There was no one outside.
He lowered his head as he walked along the passageway. He was hiding the emotions in his eyes.
No one knew what he was thinking about currently.
The lights in the passageway suddenly dimmed. Luo Yan stopped in his tracks.
The wind sounded behind him.
Luo Yan moved his feet and dodged to the side. He leaned against the cold wall.
“A sneak attack is not something a girl should do. It’s not cute.”
Ming Shu floated in the air and repositioned herself. She struck at Luo Yan. “This is not a sneak attack anymore.”
Luo Yan had to move aside.
Luo Yan couldn’t touch Ming Shu, but Ming Shu could hit him.
“This is not fair!”
Ming Shu grabbed Luo Yan’s collar and found his wrist. She grabbed it and threw him on the ground. “I just want to hit you. There is no fairness.”
Luo Yan: “…”
“I had no other choice. If it wasn’t for me, he wouldn’t have regained his memory!”
Ming Shu stepped on him. “Oh, what does that have to do with me hitting you?”
Luo Yan gritted his teeth angrily. “I did this all for him. Why are you still hitting me?”
Who did he do that for!
Who!
“You shot me because of him.” Ming Shu placed her hands on her knee and looked down at him. “Do you think that I will give him to you willingly to repay you?”
Even if he did it for Qi Yu, he still attacked her.
She couldn’t let him off so easily.
She was not an easy person to bully.
Luo Yan: “…”
Who wants that narcissistic idiot?
