"Ha ha! “Lucius sneered and took another step closer.
He was almost next to the security guard, cocking his head and looking ruffian. "You can make it up a little bit more."
"But there really is a crocodile in there... Animal Control has sent someone to look for it, but they haven't found it yet."
The security guard said it was true.
Lucius doesn't care: "We'll go in there even if there's a dinosaur in there."
With a sneer, he leaned into the guard's ear and whispered a threat: "Open the door." You drive it, or we drive it for you."
"All right."
The guard gave in and said, "Suit yourself. It's just that I didn't warn you when something happened."
Lucius slaps the ticket on the table at the door, snaps the guard's shoulder and swaggers inside.
Only when he had just entered the door, he turned back again and made the most gentlemanly gesture of invitation.
My face was panicked: "I haven't decided whether to go
As I got closer, I realized it wasn't just grass.At the very edge of the lawn was a circle of low bushes and trees, and behind the trees was a large pool or a small river.The crocodile probably swam up from this river.Now the Salamanders are wielding their clubs to stop the frightened crocodile from escaping back into the water.I was stunned by their operation.Is it fun to tease a big crocodile?Just let it go back to the river if it wants to!If you're afraid of hurting someone, call Animal control!I covered my forehead in pain and suddenly had a feeling of being a kindergarten teacher.Moreover, none of the children in the garden were obedient, and they were all mad and dying.It's a good thing Big Bear has some sense.He stood beside me and watched for a moment, scratched his head, and Han said, "Maybe we should call the security guard." He should have the number for Animal Control."“
I swear, I really wanted to kick each of them as punishment for disrespecting my character.But now is not the right time.Because the two of them are in a tense standoff.The same goes for their men.The two groups are chest to chest, wide eyes, like two flocks of aggressive roosters stare at each other, the air is full of gunpowder.I'm afraid if I speak a little louder now, they'll be all over each other's faces in no time.So I kept smiling as calmly as I could. "I have a suggestion. How about we go home first?"Antoninus nodded faintly. "OK."Lucius immediately exclaimed, "Hey! Don't flatter yourself, she said to go to my house!"Antoninus frowned, looked up at me and asked, "Is that what you mean?""I...""Of course she is." Lucius raised his eyebrows proudly. "Come on, I don't mind you coming to my place."Antoninus frowned even more. He took my hand and stood up. "Come with me home.""
David looked up at me and smiled, a touch of blood on his lips making his smile look bleak and distressing.I hurried to him, trying to get Lucius to release the man.But Antoninus still held me tight. "Don't go.""But he's just a student."We mugged David while he was riding, he got caught by the cops watching the parade, and now he's getting beat up by Lucius for no reason.I feel like I'm his bane.But Lucius laughed sarcastically: "A student? Ha ha, you tell me what kind of student can find your location so accurately? What kind of student could easily follow us through the perimeter set by the president? Although our dear president always has a bunch of losers on his staff."Antoninus ignored the malicious words in his mouth and said to me earnestly, "He's right. This person is not just a student."Then he went up, found the man's papers, looked at them, and warned, "Whoever you are, don't try anything with her, do you hea
I held the rice cooker in my ear and shook it, listening to the tinkling sound coming from inside, biting my lips and asking nervously. "But missing a few screws shouldn't make it work, right?"Antoninus blushed with embarrassment. "I don't know. Maybe not?"Antoninus's words are very powerful, and he brings the rice cooker back to the kitchen.Connect the power cord and press the switch.And I was standing by, fire extinguisher in hand.However, nothing happened.The power indicator wasn't even on.Antoninus patted the rice cooker doubtfully and examined it carefully.I finally let out a sigh of relief: "Good, at least it didn't explode.""I said, he can't!" Lucius appeared at some point behind us, leaning against the door and joking.Antoninus ignored him.Lucius patted the switch several times. "How did I remember it at least worked until you repaired it?"I was afraid that they would quarrel agai
Antoninus kissed my lipsI smiled and pushed his face away.He smiled fondly, and still bent down to kiss.I had to beg for mercy quickly: "Okay, okay, I was wrong, I will never tease you again."Antoninus lifted his lips, his inky eyes filled with a gentle smile. "I accept your apology, but I do not intend to withdraw your punishment.""Ha ha, don't you dare!"He bent down to kiss me again.I quickly covered his mouth.Then this guy licked my palm again, and it was so itchy that I couldn't help but laugh.So he simply withdrew his hand, put his arm around his neck, and sent two red lips.Antoninus, with a flash of surprise in his pupils, gripped my lips and asked for a kiss.A pair of hands gradually touched my collar, unbuttoned my coat...Before he could make any further moves, however, the sound of Grandma pounding down the stairs began."Lily!”Hearing my grandmother's voice,
When I woke up again, I was in a strange room from the woods.I propped myself out of bed, still with some pain in the back of my head.Roman was standing on the windowsill.He heard my voice and quickly ran over to help me: "Are you awake?" Don't move, do you feel any discomfort?""What do you think?" I glared at him somewhat angrily and demanded, "What did you bring me here for?"After asking this sentence, my heart suddenly clicked.“Roman…… Did you really send all those men who came after me?"Roman said with a wry smile, "Not to kill you, just to invite you here.""You... How could you do that?"I trusted him!How could he cheat me over and over again?The thought of me walking into his trap makes my chest choke.Seeing my anger, Roman crouched down on the side of the bed and explained, "I'm sorry, Lily. There is nothing I can do. If I don't do it, my father will send someone
This tiny tracker is attached to the back of my collar.But I just changed them this morning.It took me a moment to remember.When we went out this morning, Lucius pinched my cheek and Antoninus touched my neck.That's probably when he put the tracker on me.But why would he put it there?Did he know Roman was coming?Roman looked at the tracker in his palm and smiled ruefully. "Things seem to have changed. He's smarter than I thought he was.""So now the hunter is the prey?""That's right." Roman pinched my cheek and smiled. "Now we have to move. Do you mind being a hostage?""All right." I raised my eyebrows casually and offered my hands.Roman laughs: "Ha ha, I can't bear to tie you up. Come on, we must hurry."With that he ordered his men to look around, and took me by the hand and quickly retreated to the roof.There was a helicopter sitting on the roof, the fuselage was the most familia
Roman smiles and analyzes carefully. "Antoninus put a tracker on you, which means he knew I was going to take you away.""But see what he's done? He didn't do anything. He just put a little tracker on you.""If it were me, I could never do such a thing. I will protect you, and I won't let anyone take you away.""Well, makes sense? 'Antoninus did make me a little uncomfortable.But it doesn't matter, he will choose to do so, must also be weighed in his mind.I believe he has his reasons for doing so."Haha, no reason whatsoever is an excuse to put you in danger. "Roman planted a kiss on my forehead."Take care of yourself while I'm gone. Call me if you need anything.""Yes. So are you."Roman turned and walked out the door of the building, the golden sun shining on his golden hair and his white shirt glistening.He's still perfect like a god, just like we first met.But at that moment, I sudd
Once the hype is over, it's time to start preparing for our roving pitch. The first presentation was downtown. It's where the last parade was. Only this time it wasn't Antoninus in armor on the stage, it was me. He didn't show up, so I, the president's personal secretary, had to deliver his campaign message instead. I don't know much about Antoninus' politics, but at least I know what he did, and I have something to say about it. I don't know if the advertisements all over the street played a role, and when I took the stage to preach, the audience came to be particularly large. I even saw a lot of professional reporters and cameras standing in the audience. Good flow of propaganda, actually made a press conference sense. The dark camera came over, and I panicked for a while. However, I was more disturbed by the questions they asked. "How do you and the president know each other?" 'What? I suspect I misheard. But then someone asked, "I hear you and the president have a son
"Boss, I might need a favor from you." I said."No problem, go ahead."I said, "Antoninus's campaign has been delayed for a while, and I was hoping you could help us out."'Of course you can!Blake grinned and patted me on the shoulder, but sure enough, he was looking down and rubbing his hands. "But... You know, Lily, we don't do this kind of propaganda at this paper. So I'm afraid I can't help you directly. How about I give you the contact information of some of my colleagues, and you go find them?"I knew this was gonna happen.I sighed and stepped aside.Lucius, who was behind me, stepped forward and expertly pressed Blake down on the table, sneering, "Repeat what you just said?"Blake's face turned white. "You... Who are you? Lily! How could you do that?! I'll call security in!"I gave him a faint glance. 'Bark.'"I... Help me! Get me someone now! Security guard!"Just as he spoke, the door was pushed
"Antoninus lost? What do you mean?" I asked him.Lucius replied vaguely, "The day you were taken by Roman, my duel with him ended." Four out of seven, I won.""Not two out of three?"lucius replied uncomfortably, "Never mind a few games, I won anyway.""Well," I said, "it's none of my business. It's just a game. I don't care if you win or lose.""You don't care about the result?""Of course not."A kid takes a game like that seriously!Lucius snorted, "That's what I thought."He stretched out and asked, "Do you have any food here? I'm a little hungry."He did not regard himself as a stranger at all, and had begun to dig in the refrigerator.Two people in a bunker suddenly burst into a dozen people, just preparing the ingredients can be exhausting.Fortunately, they were not idle, rushing to help wash vegetables and cut meat, almost pushed the table over.Even the meal was noisy.The fir
“Be careful!” I rushed to shield David behind me.Draw my gun.Aim.The dark figures gradually rose to their feet.They looked at each other for a moment, then suddenly shouted my name: "Lily?"This voice?Is it the Salamanders?I looked at the men in surprise as they came out of the shadows one by one.It was them.And the tall figure in the distance who was waving a crowbar to greet me was the bear."Why are you here?" I was pleasantly surprised.They were visibly agitated, too: "We're coming to save you.""But how did you find me?"I can't get any signal out of here.Did they call in satellite surveillance? Or infrared tracking?"No, no, none of that. The salamander vendor said, "We have the drawings, look at the coordinates and find it."The blueprints?I looked back at David. Didn't he say the drawings were gone?So, salamander, where did the
“What's that noise?”I instinctively stood still and looked warily into the cave.David smiled and explained, "Don't worry, it's just some... Music in the background. Surely a dark cave needs some monsters, doesn't it?" 'What do you mean? I looked at him in even more shock. "Don't tell me you've been genetically modifying animals."Could it be that the depths of the cave are visiting cages stacked with animals, and the cages are filled with mutated monsters with hideous faces?Judging by his uncle's crazy ideas, it's not impossible.But David waved his hand and denied my guess: "This is a shelter. Not an outdoor adventure park. How could I really put some monsters in here? You may rest assured that you are perfectly safe here. ""So what was that sound?""I don't know..." David scratched his head and looked puzzled, "These are all audio files I downl
I looked at Antoninus on the screen and asked anxiously, "Does he have a good chance of reelection?""I don't know."I looked back in doubt.With all this surveillance, it's kind of bullying for him to say he didn't know.But David doesn't seem to know.He raised an eyebrow innocently and explained, "Well, his approval ratings are very high and he should have a good shot at re-election.""But?"But he doesn't seem to be running anymore."'Why?I was surprised. "Where did you get that information?"I know all about Antoninus. How could a workaholic totalitarian like him give up the presidency?David was still clueless: "Maybe it's you?""Me?"I'm not sure. Well, that's certainly the case according to the surveillance results. He spends half his time at his desk working and half looking at your pictures.""Oh," he said.My heart beat faster, but my face pretended not to care, "Then
"How can this be..." I know I'm not tied tight.I seriously doubt he strangled his hands like that on purpose.Sure enough, he looked up at me innocently again, his blue blue eyes blinking and blinking."All right," I said, "I'll untie you, but you have to give me a gun!""I don't have a gun.""Do you expect me to believe that?"I don't think a guy with his paranoid, cautious personality wouldn't have a few guns stashed around here."Say it! Where is the gun?"He smiled brightly again: "Under your bed, the floor closest to the wall is pry up.""Very good."I looked where he said, and sure enough I found two pistols under the floor.With a weapon in my hand and some relief, I unseated him from his chair.He still looked at me with a big smile. "You're not afraid I have a gun somewhere else.""Not afraid. One is enough for me."Shoot him or shoot yourself, but I won't give him another cha
For the next few days, I just stayed in my room.I cooked for David every day, watched TV with him, and even chatted with him until late at night.Because I wanted him to let his guard down early, hoping he'd forget to close the door one time he left.But I really underestimated him.The man was indeed introverted and timid, but he was also sensitive and cautious, like a rabbit, a scheming rabbit with a soft exterior but a dark belly.He locked the door when he entered the room and made sure I was standing at least three metres away when he opened and closed the door.I think it's gonna take a few months before he's completely unwary of me.I can't afford to wait that long.I can't stand the fact that he provides me with everything I need to live here, like food, like clothes, including my underwear.I even had to give him my underwear to change.I'm really gonna go crazy if this keeps going on.Might as we
"Well..." I nodded, as Antoninus had told me.Tiberius did all he could to restore the glory of his family, even though it drove his wife away and killed his only daughter.David sees that my face is fine and continues: "Mr Tibeirus chooses a quicker way to have a baby as soon as possible. One that doesn't require much cooperation from the president." .I probably guessed what he was going to say, and I bowed my head and listened.David said: "His father found a surrogate for him. That's you, isn't it?""That's right." I freely admitted, "I did have a child with him.""Chris. That's the name, isn't it?"I heard him say Chris's name and raised my eyebrows at him. "He's just a kid! What are you investigating him for?""I'm sorry, I'm sorry." Seeing my anger, David awkwardly began to wring his fingers, "I didn't mean to hurt him." I just feel sorry for you... I mean, innocent.""It's not something you should take on," he sa
