Chapter 313 Life is like a play!
This obsession wasn't because he had deep feelings for Zhou Xiaobai. On one hand, the two families were considered well-matched, and marrying Zhou Xiaobai would benefit his future development. Of course, that wasn't the main point. The key was that being able to snatch Zhong Yuemin's woman away gave him a sense of pleasure in completely dominating his rival.
Before meeting Zhong Yuemin, Li Yuanchao was the undisputed leader of the Beijing underworld, commanding respect and commanding absolute authority. However, after the fight at the Beijing Exhibition Center, his lies were exposed. In front of most of Beijing's underworld community, he was stabbed in the back by that bastard Zhong Yuemin, losing all face and his reputation plummeted.
Even later, when he was in the army, he couldn't avoid this bastard. The two seemed to be natural enemies, always at odds. So, after returning to Beijing to recuperate in the hospital, he intentionally tried to spend more time with Zhou Xiaobai. Although he wasn't married yet, he was never short of women and was quite the ladies' man. He believed he had many ways to win over women, and that as long as he put his heart into it, he would succeed.
However, Zhou Xiaobai miscalculated. No matter what methods he used, they were almost ineffective, which greatly annoyed and frustrated him. What made him inferior to Zhong Yuemin? Seeing Zhou Xiaobai's tense expression now only made him more uncomfortable.
What you can't have is always the best.
Suppressing his anger, he said calmly:
"Our country is at war with the monkeys in the south, just this morning around six o'clock."
"fight?"
Zhou Xiaobai's heart skipped a beat.
Luo Yun said, "Real Korea? Is this true? I've never heard of it before."
"This is top secret. It's all about catching Vietnam off guard. It's absolutely true. I expect it will be out in the newspapers and news later tonight."
"Was that... a small-scale battle or a full-scale operation?"
"As far as I know, the number of troops deployed, including logistics units, is as high as 55, divided into eastern and western lines, which is quite large."
Zhou Xiaobai's red lips trembled slightly as she said:
"That...that Yuemin Army..."
Li Yuanchao nodded,
"You're going to be in the war, Xiaobai. I shouldn't have scared you, but bullets don't discriminate on the battlefield. You need to be prepared, in case..."
"Yuemin will be absolutely fine, what nonsense are you talking about?"
Zhou Xiaobai's voice suddenly rose, and he said angrily, "Li Yuanchao, are you really hoping for something to happen to Yuemin?"
"Xiaobai, how can you talk like that!"
Luo Yun said, "Yuan Chao was just telling the truth. In war... people always die."
Zhou Xiaobai didn't respond, turned and left, slamming the door shut with a deafening roar. Luo Yun was helpless.
“Yuanchao, don’t mind me. Xiaobai is worried about Zhong Yuemin, not targeting you.”
Li Yuanchao waved his hand magnanimously, saying, "It's alright, I understand," and then added hypocritically:
"Alas... my illness came at the worst possible time. I fell ill when the country needed me the most. Luo Yun, do you know that once this war starts, I'm afraid many people will point fingers at me and say that I, Li Yuanchao, am a cowardly deserter."
"Those people are just bored and can't stand seeing others do well."
Luo Yun said bitterly:
"Illness strikes like a landslide, and it's not your fault. You're lucky, I'm not that great. But I don't want my beloved to go to war. Xiaobai, you saw it yourself, I was so worried."
Li Yuanchao suddenly grabbed Luo Yun's hands, looking at her tenderly, "Luo Yun, am I really that important to you?"
