"Mom, is that... is that Dad?"
Abruptly hearing Xiao Zhu's words, Ming Li frowned, her gaze shifting over. She immediately saw a man with a woman on each arm. Once she clearly saw the man's face, the system in her space spoke, "Host, this is Li Long from the original plot, the original host's ex-husband."
Ex-husband?
Ming Li's brow furrowed. She planned to walk in another direction, but in the next second, their path was blocked by a tall figure.
Li Long looked at the alluring figure before him, his eyes filled with lust. He raised his hand, constantly rubbing his chin, and said, "Beautiful lady, you look familiar. Have we met somewhere before?"
Ming Li stared expressionlessly at the man before her. The silver sword in her space was already itching to move.
Opposite her, Li Long was still leeringly sizing up Ming Li, "Beautiful lady, I'm a friend of the boss of the Vermillion Bird Base. If you need any help, just ask me."
Ming Li, "..." What kind of taste did the original host have? What kind of trash did she fall for?
At this moment, Yue Zhu looked at Li Long and cautiously called out, "Dad..."
Hearing this somewhat familiar voice, Li Long raised an eyebrow. His gaze fell on Yue Zhu, and he frowned, asking, "Xiao Zhu? You're still alive?"
After saying this, Li Long inexplicably felt the surrounding air turn cold...
The next second, he felt his neck tighten. His feet lost their grip. By the time he reacted, he found himself bound around the neck by a vine that seemed to have appeared from nowhere, lifting him up...
"You... What do you want to do!"
Ming Li slowly raised her eyes. Just as she was about to deal with him, she remembered that the child was still here.
Thinking this, Ming Li glanced at Yue Zhu and Zhou Xia, her brow furrowing. She said to Zhou Xia, "You two stay here. Protect him. I'll be back."
Saying this, she completely ignored the shocked crowd around them and walked towards a deserted corner. The vine binding Li Long moved with Ming Li's steps...
Li Long, dangling in the air, "..."
Arriving at a deserted corner, Ming Li looked at the man before her expressionlessly.
Meeting the woman's somewhat familiar gaze, Li Long exclaimed in shock, "Yue Li, it's you!"
Seeing that Ming Li remained silent, Li Long spoke again, "How are you still alive? What are you trying to do?"
Ming Li looked at the man before her with cold eyes, "Me? Of course, I'm here to kill you."
Li Long, "You dare! Aren't you doing this because you want to remarry me? I'll agree then! You don't have to threaten me like this!"
Ming Li, "..."
After a moment of speechless silence, Ming Li simply waved her hand. The next second, Li Long felt his neck tighten, and gradually, he could no longer breathe.
Meeting Ming Li's emotionless gaze, Li Long finally sensed killing intent. His eyes widened instantly, and he struggled to roar at Ming Li, "Yue Li! You can't do this to me! Don't you forget! I'm your son's father! If you kill me, aren't you afraid he'll hate you?!"
As he spoke, Li Long laboriously took a signal flare gun from his pants pocket...
"Bang—"
Ming Li, "Noisy."
Two voices sounded simultaneously. The next second, the vine tightened, and Li Long instantly lost his breath.
Just then, a column of fire shot towards the vines, but it was a step too late...
