Chapter 1089 That's Because Not Enough Money Was Spent

In these days, Mi Luo had been living in guilt.

If she hadn't saved Bai Su back then, so many things wouldn't have happened, and Freya wouldn't have been put in danger time and time again.

"Do you know how much I hate you?" Mi Luo tightened her grip on the umbrella handle. As the rain slanted in, half of her shoulder was soaked.

Her eyes were scarlet. She took out a stack of photos from her body and threw them on the tombstone. "If it weren't for this damned blood relationship, I would make you offer a blood sacrifice to all the souls you've killed."

The photos were lifted by the wind and rain and flew around.

Those familiar faces were deeply engraved in Mi Luo's heart, and along with the memories of the past, they were all awakened.

"Mi Luo, we'll cover for you. Hurry up and leave."

More than a dozen sisters risked their lives to cover her escape, but they were brutally killed and finally fell in a pool of blood.

Whenever Mi Luo closed her eyes, all she could see were these heart-breaking memories.

Although it was Ji Yueyue who had planned all this, if Bai Su hadn't given the order to kill her completely, how could a mere Ji Yueyue have had that much ability?

At first, she didn't hate Bai Su. She just thought that Bai Su had been deceived by villains and that was why she had done such inhumane things.

It wasn't until the underground maze was discovered and all the sins were uncovered that she truly realized she had misjudged the person.

This woman whom she had admired and loved since childhood was actually a devil good at disguising herself!

Those innocent people in the underground maze who had been transformed into death warriors.

And Qin Gou had been trapped in there for more than ten years, and even Yun Xiangcheng had almost died in the underground maze.

All of this was caused by Bai Su single-handedly.

She was good at making plans and manipulating everyone in the palm of her hand. Now she was finally dead. She died so miserably that in the end, there was no one to see her off.

Mi Luo just thought it was extremely ridiculous. Until her death, she refused to reveal the secrets of the Zhan Fa family and let this evil organization stay in the world and do evil.

She couldn't find a reason to forgive Bai Su. Even though Bai Su was already dead, she didn't deserve Mi Luo's offering of sacrifices.

The rain became heavier and heavier.

Mi Luo slowly let go of the umbrella in her hand and let the rain soak her whole body.

She stood there motionless, as if she had been frozen in place.

I don't know how long it had passed, but suddenly the rain stopped.

Mi Luo slowly raised her head and found that there was an umbrella above her head, and Freya was standing behind her.

At that moment, all her strength collapsed instantly. Ignoring the fact that she was completely soaked, she threw herself into Freya's arms.

Freya stroked her wet hair and comforted her, "Let the past go. Your life has just begun and deserves better protection and love. Even if the whole world betrays you, there are still me and Yun Xiangcheng behind you as your support. So, Mi Luo, let it go. Don't let the sins of the past torture you!"

Freya had always known that Mi Luo felt guilty towards her.

After all, the several times she had been in danger were all caused by Bai Su.

And Bai Su was Mi Luo's biological mother.

Even though the two of them had severed their mother-daughter relationship, this blood relationship could never be cut off in a lifetime.

"Yun Xiangcheng is still waiting for you in the car. He will be more worried than anyone else when he sees you like this." Freya looked up ahead. There was a black Hummer parked by the roadside, and Yun Xiangcheng was obviously getting anxious as he stood by the roadside holding a black umbrella.

Mi Luo followed Freya's gaze and met the man's anxious eyes. Her cold heart gradually warmed up.

Freya was right. Her current state would only make everyone else worry about her.

"Then you're standing in the rain with me. If you catch a cold, Bradley will be heartbroken." Mi Luo faintly curved her lips and teased.

Seeing that she could still joke around, Freya quickly grabbed her and walked forward. "I'm glad you know that. Now we have to go back quickly, drink some ginger tea, take a nice hot bath, have a good sleep, and tomorrow will be a bright and sunny day."

When Yun Xiangcheng saw the two of them coming, he rushed forward worriedly. Freya gave Mi Luo a push, and Mi Luo fell from under her umbrella into Yun Xiangcheng's arms.

Freya raised her eyebrows and said, "I'm leaving Mi Luo to you. Take good care of her."

After saying that, she held the umbrella and walked towards her own car.

At a time like this, the company of lovers was the best comfort. If she got in the car with them, wouldn't she spoil their good mood for chatting and showing affection?

She couldn't be a third wheel.

After putting away the umbrella, Freya opened the car door and sat in the driver's seat, quickly disappearing from the sight of the two of them.

...

When she got back to the Dark Web, Bradley was discussing something with Xu Yan. When he saw that she was all soaked, he immediately stood up, took off his trench coat, and put it on her.

Xu Yan was very sensible and said, "I just realized that there's still an experiment unfinished. I'll leave now." After saying that, he quickly disappeared.

After the door closed, Bradley reached out and brushed away the stray hairs sticking to her face. He frowned and said, "Why didn't you take an umbrella when you went out?"

Freya pursed her lips and pointed outside the window. "You were here and couldn't see how heavy the rain was outside. Even if I took an umbrella, I still got wet."

Bradley really didn't know how heavy the rain was. From half an hour ago until now, he had been discussing the situation of the medical room with Xu Yan.

After thinking it over, Xu Yan finally relented and agreed to stay in the medical room and work for him.

When Hua Lingxu left, a lot of experiments were suspended. Xu Yan had roughly understood the whole medical room in a short period of time and decided to restart the research on the experiments that Hua Lingxu hadn't completed.

This was undoubtedly a great help to Bradley.

"Xu Yan has decided to submit to me. In the future, there's no need for Yun Xiangcheng and Hua Lingxu to worry about the affairs of the medical room. We can just take this opportunity to let the two of them have a good rest." As Bradley spoke, he picked Freya up in his arms and walked towards the bathroom.

She was so soaked. If she didn't take a nice hot bath, she would surely catch a cold.

Freya was caught off guard by being picked up. She instinctively reached out and hugged the man's neck, exclaiming, "How did you persuade him? He clearly wasn't very willing just a few hours ago."

Bradley smiled and placed her in the bathtub. He turned on the warm water and gently scraped the tip of her nose affectionately. "The reason why Xu Yan didn't want to agree was mainly because he didn't trust us. But he also knew clearly that if he left the Dark Web with his wife and children at this time, he would definitely become the target of the Zhan Fa family. Then not only him, but even his wife and children would be in danger again.

After weighing the pros and cons, a smart person will naturally choose to stay. After all, the excellent conditions here can not only create value for him, but also help him become a stronger person to protect his family better.

Of course, I promised Xu Yan a considerable salary. There's no one in this world who can resist the temptation of money. If there's a problem that money can't solve, then it's because not enough money has been spent!"

When the last sentence was said, Freya laughed softly. "But people who can be bought with money will never be that loyal."
