He couldn’t possibly explain to others that he had transmigrated, so he could only agree to it.
“Click!”
Meng Xian pulled out a handgun, c.o.c.ked it, and directly aimed at Zhao Yu.
“No!”
Before she could fired, Xu Meng Lan reacted, stood in front of her.
Zhao Yu only felt a bullet had just whizzed past his ear.
“Why did you blocked me?!”
Meng Xian, trembling with anger, “He abused you, and you still protect him?!”
“No, my husband has changed…” Xu Meng Lan felt conflicted. If this had been a few days earlier, she definitely wouldn’t have stopped Meng Xian from killing Zhao Yu.
After spending the past few days together, she felt that Zhao Yu seemed quite decent.
“You believe a man’s words?!” Meng Xian became even more enraged and c.o.c.ked her gun again.
Her words made the other four men in the room somewhat uncomfortable, but no one intervened.
“Please, spare my husband. He’s admitted his mistakes; he’s changed…”
Zhao Yu didn’t expect Meng Xian to actually plan to kill him directly.
When he first arrived and saw Xu Meng Lan’s plight, he also wished he could revive the original host just to kill him again.
So, Meng Xian’s reaction wasn’t entirely unwarranted. At the very least, it showed that she had a conscience and was righteous.
Living under such hands, one shouldn’t suffer humiliation.
But now, he had ironically become the person Meng Xian despised.
At the same time, Xu Meng Lan action made Zhao Yu feel a little touched, especially when she had saved his life, allowing this clone to be preserved.
Zhao Yu knew that he was a clone, but he didn’t want to die.
Before resonating with the core consciousness, he felt that his life was important. If he died, there might be nothing left.
“You…”
Meng Xian was quite angered, looking at Xu Meng Lan with an expression of disappointed expectations.
The other men present felt sympathetic and started persuading her.
Compared to Xu Meng Lan, who had been sheltered in the underground refuge for a long time and wasn’t exposed to the harsh external environment, Meng Xian and the others seemed rougher.
“Get lost, all of you are the same!”
Meng Xian cursed bitterly, making the four men back away in fear.
She no longer had the desire to kill Zhao Yu. She turned to look at him and coldly said, “Sc.u.m, get out of here before 1 change my mind. I don’t want to see you again!”
Zhao Yu didn’t say another word and flee.
“Hehe!”
Meng Xian couldn’t help but reveal a mocking expression. She said to Xu Meng Lan, “Look, that’s your husband. He just abandoned you and ran away…”
Afraid of provoking Meng Xian further, she held her tongue and could only silently shed tears as she watched Zhao Yu’s retreating figure.
She wasn’t sure if she would ever see Zhao Yu again. After all, they had been together for a year, especially in the recent days, which had given her the warmth of family.
Sadly, all of this seemed to have vanished now.
Meng Xian looked at the wound on her arm and comforted her, “Sis, don’t worry. You’ll meet a better man in the future. I’ll help you find someone, definitely better than this sc.u.m…”
“No, I don’t want to…” Xu Meng Lan shook her head.
“You have Stockholm syndrome. It will take time for you to move on…”
“Don’t worry. In a short time, you’ll realize that you don’t actually love him; you were just manipulated by him….”
