Chapter 480: Pirates
Translator: Lonelytree
Many times, I wanted to go to Ma Ji to ask her for medicine to forget everything. It took great courage and perseverance to control myself from going to Ma Ji.
I would wake up at three or four o’clock in the morning and wait for the sun to rise. I had seen the sunrise from every angle on the island.
Su Shen had had it with me. She thought everything was a waste of time. So she got up early and took me to exercise. She taught me how to fight.
I was eager to learn. I went along because I needed to pass the time.
However, I refused to contact anyone, be it my little uncle, Mai Qi or Jing Ni. I didn’t want to talk with any of them. Whenever they called, I would find an excuse and leave. I left Su Qian and Su Shen to handle the mess.
My family and friends didn’t expect me to cut them off so cleanly. To be honest, I didn’t expect myself to do that too. I thought I would continue to interact with them when I was here. However, every one of them represented Jing Tian in my eyes. I could get Jing Tian’s news from them, but I didn’t want to. I didn’t want to hear about Jing Tian’s news from another person.
Of course, no one believed me. I thought I’d be caught in pain forever. Fortunately, there was something for me to do.
Someone had taken a fancy to my island!
The island was very hidden, and there were anti-radar devices on the island. Passing ships wouldn’t find this place… but there were always accidents and exceptions.
During a horrible storm, a small boat ran aground on the island. The few families still staying on the island rescued them. But they were not repaid nicely. The people they saved were pirates.
The pirates were saved by the islanders, but once they left, they gathered a gang to attack the island. They wanted the island for its rich resource and remote geographical location.
They thought the island only had a few kind-hearted and foolish natives. They did know about the island owner from the natives. It was a beautiful 20-year-old single girl.
They didn’t even come at night. Instead, they arrived in their broken boat in broad daylight.
When we received the emergency alert from Xiao Yi, Su Qian, Su Shen, and I were shocked. Then, we saw the excitement in each other’s eyes.
I said, “There’s a large number of weapons underneath greenhouse 3. Shall we try them out?”
The two of them smiled and nodded. “Sure!”
A killer would always be a killer. A lion could be tamed by the circus ringleader. It could become good friends with its master. People would think it was no longer a lion but a big cat. However, that was not the case. A lion was naturally wild.
Similarly, Su Qian and Su Shen would never become my ‘assistants’ even though that were their official roles.
When they held the sniper rifles, their auras changed. I couldn’t help but praise, “You’re so beautiful!”
As if to show off, the two took down the pirates without missing a single shot.
I was speechless. “You don’t have to be so thrifty. We have plenty of bullets. This is no fun if you’re always so accurate!”
Su Shen turned around and glared at me. Su Qian didn’t even bother to look at me..
