Chapter 59: Xie Jiarong’s decision

Facing Zhang Bolang’s barking, Liang Yu completely ignored him in the group.

Because of this, Zhang Bolang felt that Liang Yu was afraid of him.

Thus, he chose not to conflict with him and tried not to provoke him.

Being afraid of provoking him made him even more arrogant.

Especially after Zhang Bohai was injured, he began to recuperate and showed no intention of interfering.

Power was already in his hands, and his fear of Zhang Bohai had lessened.

However, at this time, he still greatly respected Zhang Bohai, after all, Zhang Bohai had single-handedly raised him, acting as a father figure in his childhood and even loving him like a mother.

Seeing no one speaking in the group, he felt that he had suppressed them.

Zhang Bolang was quite satisfied; he then told Wu Jue to come to the 8th floor and find him directly at 802, across the hall.

Room 802 was originally Huang Qiushi’s apartment; after Wu Daye came to find the doctor last time, he opened the door and did not close it.

And Hu Lili’s arrival led Zhang Bohai to say that she should be placed somewhere else.

So, Zhang Bolang, upon leaving his apartment, saw the open door of 802, and this became his and Hu Lili’s den.

Zhang Bolang and the thirteen owners’ stronghold was no longer 801, but 802 across the hall.

Following Zhang Bolang’s final message in the group for Wu Jue to come over.

Not a single owner spoke up, as they all knew Zhang Bolang was someone who possessed the Equalizer of All Beings.

They were very afraid that he would directly come to their door and give them a taste of it.

Xie Jiarong was also like this; when she saw Zhang Bolang start to speak up for Hu Lili, she had already accepted the reality.

Thinking about what she had to face tomorrow, she was truly scared.

After all, it was she who had caused the reward for the owners who spent food, time, and effort filming the video to fall through.

She truly couldn’t imagine what kind of torment she would face tomorrow.

But she was even more afraid of Zhang Bolang now.

The torment from the owners tomorrow would make her life miserable.

But for the long term, they would always leave her a way out.

However, if she angered Zhang Bolang, he would completely cut off any path for her to survive.

And everything she suffered, she attributed to Hu Lili.

She hated Liang Yu, but not as intensely.

After all, since Liang Yu’s bounty, she had been able to eat much more food daily.

On this point, she was somewhat grateful to Liang Yu.

But she dared not do anything to Zhang Bolang.

The reason was very simple: he had the item in his hand, a typical bully who picks on the weak.

Thus, all the remaining hatred fell upon Hu Lili.

It was she who brought her a ray of light called hope.

And it was she who kicked her back into hell just as she was about to escape.

Hu Lili only needed to sacrifice herself to complete her.

In Xie Jiarong’s eyes, since Hu Lili liked to stand up for others and be a good person, she should be responsible to the end.

Therefore, the person Xie Jiarong hated the most was not Liang Yu, who put a bounty on her.

Nor were it Hu Zhiyun and Wu Pei, who treated her as merchandise and sold her.

It was that meddlesome Hu Lili.

Under Xie Jiarong’s resentful gaze, Hu Zhiyun walked over and took her phone away.

She pretended to be very innocent towards Xie Jiarong.

“I can’t help it. Liang Yu doesn’t agree to cancel the bounty, and we two don’t dare to release you.”

“If we release you and he gets angry with us, it won’t be good.”

Then she gave Xie Jiarong a piece of bread and a bowl of hot water.

“This is your food for tonight. Remember, don’t say tomorrow that I gave you food tonight.”

“Those people all threatened me and told me to starve you for a night.”

Xie Jiarong heard this and did not doubt it, after all, it was indeed because of her that Liang Yu’s reward was canceled.

It was normal for the other party to react this way.

Not long after Hu Zhiyun left, Wu Pei also secretly snuck in.

Xie Jiarong looked at Wu Pei, who looked like a thief.

Then she saw Wu Pei unbutton her coat and pull out half a bottle of water and a small half-pack of biscuits, handing them over.

She glanced at Xie Jiarong, made a shushing gesture, and left the room without saying much.

Xie Jiarong was quite touched by their actions.

Little did she know, they were just afraid that their ‘commodity’ would starve.

After all, this ‘commodity’ had brought them a lot of food these past two days.

If she starved, how would they collect tomorrow?

Xie Jiarong in the room quickly finished the food the two had given her.

Then she felt behind the headboard and pulled out the phone a guest had given her today.

She turned on the phone and immediately composed and sent a text message.

“I agree to your conditions. Bring people over around 3 AM tonight. I will open the door for you.”

After sending the message, she turned off the phone and hid it again.

Not long after she hid the phone, Hu Zhiyun directly pushed open the door and entered.

She collected the food wrappers and the bowl, and after leaving, she locked the door of the room where Xie Jiarong was confined.

After the room door was locked, Xie Jiarong quietly walked to the back of the door and waited for a good while.

Hearing no movement, she then turned around and rummaged at the bottom of the wardrobe.

After about seven or eight minutes, she finally found a key.

Somewhat impatiently, she walked to the edge of the room door.

Confirming again that there was no movement outside the door, she inserted the key into the lock.

The nervous Xie Jiarong could only take deep breaths to regulate her emotions at this time.

Finally, she turned the key, and the crisp sound of unlocking entered her ears.

She dared not delay, immediately twisted the lock back, and then left the door.

Soon after, someone came to the room door and turned the doorknob.

Seeing that there was no problem, they left.

Xie Jiarong only breathed a sigh of relief when she heard the departing footsteps.

Liang Yu in the Doomsday Fortress was still tinkering with various items at this time.

However, this time his target was a remote-controlled robot model of a Transformer.

Looking at the 1.2-meter-tall megatron in front of him, and this particular megatron was a Cybertronian jet in its aircraft form.

Liang Yu was very much looking forward to what kind of surprise it could bring him.

He looked at the remote control, which had already changed drastically, next to him.

At this moment, it showed no trace of being a remote control.

Liang Yu looked at its appearance, which was like a glass sphere built on the ground, with the inside of the sphere completely hollow.

Liang Yu didn’t know how to enter it at this time.

He could only try to reach out and touch the edge of the sphere.

However, as he reached out, he felt no obstruction; his outstretched hand went directly into the interior of the sphere.

So Liang Yu walked in entirely.

After he entered, he felt a force suspending him in the air.

But there was no feeling of weightlessness.

What surprised him most was the sensation under his feet, just like stepping on the ground, making him feel secure.

As the sphere activated.

Many instructions about this remote terminal unconsciously appeared in his mind.

And what was displayed in front of him was the scene that megatron saw.
