After Descending the Mountain, Seven Big Brothers Spoil Me

Chapter 744 One Hundred Million

Everyone was stunned, looking up at the large screen where Zhao Xinghua was being held down by Ye Lingfeng. Covered in blood and looking like a god of death returned from hell, Ye Lingfeng's handsome face was icy cold.

"Tell me, what do you want to do to Zhouzhou?" Ye Lingfeng demanded.

Hearing her name, Zhouzhou was momentarily stunned before she excitedly bounced up, saying, "Dad, I'm here!"

Upon hearing his daughter's voice, Ye Lingfeng looked over and finally released Zhao Xinghua. He walked over to his desk and sat down, holding the computer. Seeing Zhouzhou standing there unharmed, his expression softened.

"Are you okay?" he asked gently.

Zhouzhou shook her head and nodded at the same time.

Ye Lingfeng's heart skipped a beat.

Then his little girl pouted and complained, "Dad, Uncle said I'm a little shorty!"

Ye Lingfeng: "......"@@@@

Isn't that the truth?

But seeing her angry expression, Ye Lingfeng struggled to keep his mouth shut and swallowed the words he wanted to say. Clearing his throat, he said, "Okay, I'll remember that. Next time I see him, I'll make sure to give him a good beating."

"No, no," Zhouzhou shook her head vigorously. "Don't hit Uncle. He's a good person."

So that means the others are bad guys?

Ye Lingfeng's mood soured as he cast a disapproving glance at Xi Mo. "Tell me, what's the purpose of this whole act today? What do you want to do to Zhouzhou?"

He had intended to come back for something but overheard Zhao Xinghua and the Commander planning to capture Zhouzhou. And Xi Mo was involved too.

He couldn't tolerate this.

Zhao Xinghua winced, rubbing his shoulder and popping his bones back into place. He couldn't help but glare at Ye Lingfeng. "How can you be so impulsive?"

Ye Lingfeng ignored him.

How dare they touch his daughter? It was fortunate he hadn't blown up the entire island already.

Seeing his expression, Zhao Xinghua knew what he was thinking. Sighing, he sat down and explained, "I was only trying to do what's best for Zhouzhou."

At that moment, someone else walked in.

Zhouzhou turned and saw the Commander, becoming even more confused.

What was going on? So many people, just to capture her? What was the reason?

It couldn't be just to make fun of her short legs, could it?

The Commander came in, glanced at Zhouzhou, and laughed heartily. "Not bad, little girl. You managed to handle such a tough challenge without a scratch?"

He switched to another screen on the computer and pulled up the post.

Zhouzhou leaned in to read. She was now literate enough to recognize the words.

She read aloud, "Bounty for the capture of Qin Caicai: One hundred million."

Below was her basic information: age, appearance, home address, and so on.

After reading, Zhouzhou's eyes widened in shock.

One hundred million!

She touched her head in disbelief.

Oh my God, she was walking around with a one hundred million bounty every day.

This was too dangerous!

Seeing her reaction, Xi Mo couldn't help but find it amusing.

He reached out to pat her head, looking at Qin Lie and Ye Lingfeng. The amusement in his eyes slowly faded.

He said, "I know you want to protect Zhouzhou and prevent her from living in fear every day."

"But Zhouzhou isn't an ordinary child. She has the ability to protect herself. Knowing about the danger and being cautious is better for her than being overly protected. Besides, can you guarantee that you'll be with her twenty-four-seven?"

"Furthermore, Zhouzhou isn't foolish. Do you really think she doesn't notice? If you keep this up, she might start overthinking and it could affect her growth."

After speaking, he noticed Zhouzhou pulling at his sleeve. He turned to see her looking at him with a serious expression.

She proudly touched her head, pulling out an insurance policy from her pocket and waving it. "Uncle, my head is worth one hundred million now. You guys threw me into the water earlier and got my head wet. I want compensation!"

Xi Mo: "......"

Qin Lie: "......"

Ye Lingfeng: "......"

He sighed in exasperation.

This was exactly why he didn't want to tell Zhouzhou!

Look at what she's focusing on. Others see danger and threats; she only sees the bounty and her newly appreciated head.

She's not dumb--are there really any fools left in this world?

She might even be thinking of exchanging her head for money now.

Sure enough, Zhouzhou eagerly asked, "Uncle, where do we collect the money?"

"Let's go get the money!"
