187: Chapter 187 Your little schemes are things I've already figured out!
Mid-slope, a breeze brushed against their faces.
Yaro held a dagger tightly against Lanna's neck, a hint of victory appearing at the corner of her mouth.
This time, she was sure to win.
However, Qin Feng's reaction completely exceeded her expectations.
He was not angry, not nervous, and certainly not the least bit compromised.
He just watched her quietly, his gaze like that of someone looking at a tantrum-throwing child.
Then, he smiled.
It was a smile mixed with mockery, making Yaro's heart sink suddenly, and an ominous premonition arose.
"My woman?" Qin Feng tilted his head, asking with interest, "Who told you that?"
Yaro was stunned.
"You... what do you mean?"
"I mean," the smile on Qin Feng's face grew wider.
"Don't you know that, just like you, she is also my captive?"
Boom!
This sentence, like a thunderclap, exploded in Yaro's mind!
Yaro was completely confused; Lanna had been lying all along, she wasn't some tourist at all.
Her plan, all her calculations, were based on the premise that Lanna was important to Qin Feng.
But now, Qin Feng had personally smashed that foundation to pieces.
"You used one of my captives to threaten me, to make me let another captive go?"
Qin Feng shook his head, as if he had heard some huge joke.
"Yaro, have you been in 'Snow Wolf' for too long that your brain has become like a wolf's, only knowing how to go in a straight line?"
He took a step forward, his tone becoming cold and cruel.
"I'll teach you all another lesson. As my private property, the first realization you must have is that you can be sacrificed or abandoned at any time."
"Understand?"
His gaze swept over Yaro, cold and cruel.
Hearing this, Lanna felt numb, her heart sinking into an ice cellar.
Private property...
Sacrificed...
Abandoned...
This damn scumbag actually said such heartless words.
So, from beginning to end, it was all just her own wishful thinking.
So, in his eyes, she and this Yang Country woman really were no different.
Men are no good, especially the Chef! Heartless and unrighteous, simply the fighter jet of scumbags!
At this moment.
Yaro's heart was also in chaos.
She looked at Qin Feng's terrifyingly calm eyes, and for the first time, felt a chill from the bottom of her heart.
This man simply had no heart!
It wasn't that he had no flaws, but that he simply didn't care about so-called flaws!
Her threats, her bargaining chips, in his eyes, were just a joke.
Just as Yaro was in a state of great shock.
Qin Feng moved.
He rubbed his toe lightly on the ground.
"Whoosh!"
A stone the size of a fingernail, with a sharp whistling sound, shot up from the ground and hit Yaro's wrist holding the knife exactly.
"Ah!"
A piercing pain came, Yaro's wrist went numb, and she couldn't hold the dagger anymore.
"Clang!"
The dagger fell to the ground, making a crisp sound.
Now!
Qin Feng's figure, like a ghost, instantly crossed the distance of several meters and appeared in front of the two women.
He didn't even look at Yaro, stretched out his long arm, and pulled Lanna directly into his arms.
The whole process happened in the blink of an eye.
Lanna leaned against Qin Feng's solid chest, smelling the familiar scent on him, and hadn't even come back to her senses yet.
"Hey... Russian Girl? Why are you crying? Scared?"
The strong-willed Lanna wiped her tears and said stubbornly: "I'm not crying, just got sand in my eyes. What else could I be afraid of? Isn't it just being a captive?"
"No!" Qin Feng denied.
"You've been promoted long ago, you are my little maid."
"..."
Lanna was speechless and glared at him angrily.
Qin Feng raised his head, his gaze falling back on Yaro.
Yaro stumbled back two steps, her face even paler than Lanna's just now.
Damn it, these two are actually flirting!
Tricked again!!
This time, she lost again.
Lost more thoroughly and uglier than the previous two times.
The first two times, she lost on strength and technique.
This time, she lost on being too clever.
She thought she had seen through the human heart, but in the end, she was played in the palm of the other person's hand.
This man, from the very beginning, was waiting for her to make a move.
He deliberately let her have contact with Lanna, deliberately let her see the so-called "flaw."
Even those heartless words just now were meant for her to hear.
The purpose was to make her and Lanna lose their composure at the same time.
What a terrifying calculation.
What a terrifying man.
"This is the third time."
Qin Feng said calmly, but there was a hint of impatience in his tone.
"These kinds of tricks are all things I've played with before."
"By the way, a piece of advice for you, someone like you isn't suitable for playing mind games, better to be direct, maybe you'll have a chance."
Boom!
Yaro's inner defense line completely collapsed.
From fighting to psychological warfare, she lost completely without a doubt.
She was even toyed with by the enemy!
A great humiliation!
She would definitely not admit defeat.
...
The mountain road was rugged, and Yaro followed numbly like a led beast.
The pebbles under her feet hurt her soles, and her wrists were rubbed raw by the rough rope, but none of this compared to the humiliation in her heart.
Dragon Country "Chef", is it.
I want you dead!
Yaro's heart was like fire, but her face remained calm as water.
She looked up to observe the surroundings.
The Chef was leading the way, his steps steady, his back like a mountain.
The Bear Country woman Lanna beside him, although still limping, would lean over to the man from time to time to say something, occasionally hitting him, and the man didn't dodge.
That posture was glaringly intimate.
Enemy? Lover?
Yaro's mind was a mess.
As a machine born only for killing and missions, she really couldn't understand this complex relationship.
But one thing she was becoming more and more certain of.
That Bear Country woman was also a captive.
Perhaps to survive, she had to act with this demon.
It must be that.
Yaro's eyes became sharp again, remembering the last sentence the Chef said.
"Not suitable for playing mind games, better to be direct."
Yes, be direct.
Instead of racking her brains to find that ethereal "flaw," it was better to create an opportunity for a one-hit kill.
A new plan quietly formed in her heart.
Approaching the top of the mountain, the wind began to grow stronger.
Qin Feng reined in the Red Flame and chose a leeward depression.
"We'll camp here today."
He put down his backpack, walked to the edge of the cliff, and looked out towards the direction of the Dragon Country.
The sea of clouds churned, and the distant mountains were continuous.
After crossing this mountain and wading through a river, it wouldn't be far from the Dragon-Yang border.
There was a Border Defense Battalion of the Yang Country, the last checkpoint.
As long as she could break through there, she could return to the Dragon Country.
Qin Feng calculated the days; he had been out for almost a month.
By the time he went back, the college students' military training would probably be over, and it would be time for him to report to Qingteng University.
Qin Feng suddenly felt a sense of nostalgia for the green years of his previous life.
A brand new university life, youth!
"Time to work."
Qin Feng turned around and started to make a fire to cook.
Lanna sat not far away, untying the bandage on her leg to change her dressing.
The wound had scabbed over, but after walking for a day, it was still a bit swollen and red.
She didn't avoid Qin Feng's gaze, her movements skillful.
Yaro's rope had been untied, but her hands were still bound, and she was thrown to the side.
She curled up on the ground, head down, as if dozing off.
Night fell.
The three of them sat around the campfire, eating dried meat simply.
Qin Feng yawned: "It's not safe in the forest at night, I'll keep watch, you sleep."
As he spoke, he added firewood to the fire, the firelight reflecting on his face, flickering.
Lanna and Yaro each found a place to lie down.
The night was quiet, with only the crackling of burning firewood.
In the second half of the night.
The flames made a slight noise, and Yaro opened her eyes suddenly.
