    Early the next morning, Qiao Qiao and Cheng Xiu went out for a run as usual, but when they returned to the hotel, they found that the atmosphere seemed different.Several people were staring at her and Cheng Xiu, and several others were peeking, and these glances were very uncomfortable.

    The landlady came over in a hurry and took them to the back room: “You guys should leave quickly. I don’t want today’s room fee either.”

    Qiao Qiao was confused: “What’s wrong?”

    The proprietress lowered her voice: “What’s going on between you and Angkor? Angkor’s people are looking for you two everywhere.”

    Qiao Qiao found it strange when he heard it: “What is he looking for us for? Yes, we had a little unpleasantness with him, but there was no direct conflict. Just because of such a trivial matter? Isn’t it?”

    “You don’t know him well. He is used to being domineering. Someone kicked his dog before and one of his legs was broken by Angkor.”

    “Isn’t this too much? No one cares?”

    The landlady looked bitter: “Who dares to take care of it? The sky is high and the emperor is far away, and you have nowhere to sue. Besides, what will happen even if you win? Your family and friends are still here? Alas, even those of us who run small businesses have to pay tribute every year, otherwise you won’t be able to open your store.”

    Qiao Qiao was speechless. For people in a small place, local snakes are like local emperors. As long as they live here, reporting will only lead to greater revenge. No one wants to kill an egg with an egg.

    There was no other way. Qiao Qiao could only pack up her things and check out of the room with Cheng Xiu. It was not because she was afraid of Angkor the Dog, but because she saw the pleading face of the proprietress and couldn’t bear to involve irrelevant people. She and Cheng Xiu could just leave. The proprietress’s shop didn’t have any legs.

    I thought that active avoidance would end this matter, but Angkor obviously did not intend to let them go so easily.

    It was getting dark, and Qiao Qiao was still worrying about where to stay at night. Cheng Xiu had skillfully folded down the back seats, put on cushions and blankets, and built a simple bed.

    Qiao Qiao blinked: “When did you prepare these things?”

    Cheng Xiu: “Always keep it in the trunk.”

    Qiao Qiao: “…”

    Ahem, okay, she hasn’t really seen this car before, and she doesn’t even know what’s in the back.

    Cheng Xiu: “If you don’t get used to it, we can find another place to live.”

    “No, no, I’m very used to it!” Qiao Qiao jumped on the ‘bed’ in the back seat and bounced it twice hard. “I used to really want to have an RV. I can go wherever I want, and I can also bathe and cook in the car. It’s like a running house.”

    If she had such a car, she could leave home early, and even wandering around the world would be better than living with those so-called ‘family’.

    Cheng Xiu was silent for a few seconds: “You will have it.”

    “Haha, forget it now.” Qiao Qiao shook his head, “I don’t want to run around anymore. I think this kind of life is very good.”

    She patted the place beside her: “Come here, let’s lie down together, oh yes, by the way, open the skylight, let’s look at the stars.”

    Cheng Xiu did as he was told, and the two of them lay on the mat side by side. This place was far away from the big cities and there was not much light pollution, so the night sky looked particularly clear, with dense stars and low clouds.

    After watching for a while, Qiao Qiao took out an earphone and gave it to Cheng Xiu.

    A piece of soothing pure music sounded, which matched perfectly with the stars in the sky.

    “Wow, I kind of regret it now.” Qiao Qiao muttered to himself.

    Cheng Xiu looked sideways at her.

    “I regret not moving out earlier and saving so much accommodation fees.”

    The man frowned and finally asked the question that had troubled him for a long time: “Are you… short of money?”

    “NONONO, it has nothing to do with whether you have money or not. Saving money is a matter of faith.”

    Cheng Xiu: “…”

    The starry sky seemed to have a hypnotic effect. Qiao Qiao felt sleepy after watching it for a while. She pulled the blanket and yawned: “Let’s sleep.”

    Cheng Xiu remained in the same position as before: “You sleep, I’ll keep watch.”

    “Vigil? It’s not necessary. This is a plain, and there are no wolves or bears. What’s there to keep watch on?”

    The man shook his head: “This is a rule.”

    “Now that we’re out, don’t worry about the broken rules.” Qiao Qiao muttered dissatisfied, “This car is so strong that even a knife from heaven and earth can’t penetrate it. There’s nothing to be afraid of. Let’s sleep together.”

    But no matter how she tried to persuade him, Cheng Xiu refused to lie down, and Qiao Qiao also gave in to him. Sometimes he could implement Qiao Qiao’s words like military orders, but sometimes he was as deaf as if he was deaf.

    Unable to persuade her, Qiao Qiao had no choice but to lie down on her own. Fortunately, she was extremely adaptable and fell asleep quickly even if the space was a little tighter.

    She felt that she only slept for a short while before being woken up by Cheng Xiu.

    “What’s wrong?” Qiao Qiao rubbed his eyes, but soon realized that something was wrong.

    She looked out the window. It was dark outside. With the little light from the street lamp not far away, she saw a dozen black figures slowly surrounding the off-road vehicle.

    “What is that?” Qiao Qiao held his breath unconsciously, “A wolf?”

    “No.” Cheng Xiu took the off-road flashlight and swung it outside. Several black figures quickly jumped away a few inches, but it was still enough for them to see clearly their true colors – dogs.

    “What kind of dog is so big?”

    “Mastiffs.” Cheng Xiu observed the outside calmly, “They are all artificially bred breeds, not stray dogs.”

    Qiao Qiao suddenly remembered what the landlady said during the day: “It can’t be the dog raised by Angkor, right?”

    Cheng Xiu didn’t say anything. He had quickly put away the flashlight and silently jumped into the driver’s seat. However, starting the ignition now might irritate the dogs, so he didn’t move in a hurry.

    The fact that the dog is here means that the owner will not be too far away. If he makes a sudden attack, he might fall into a trap and become even more passive.

    “I still have a few ham sausages in my bag, why don’t I try to lure them away.”

    “It’s useless.” Cheng Xiu whispered, “These dogs have been trained not to eat casually.”

    “What should we do?” Qiao Qiao asked nervously, “It’s still early before dawn. Should we wait here?”

    Cheng Xiu glanced at her and reached out to open the passenger’s storage box.

    He didn’t turn on the light, but the contents in the box were dazzling enough that he could see clearly with just a little moonlight.

    It’s actually a semi-automatic submachine gun…

    Qiao Qiao guessed that her expression must have been very wonderful at that time, even though there was no mirror to look at.

    “…When did you put it in?” Qiao Qiao’s mouth twitched twice.

    Cheng Xiu: “It’s always there, but you didn’t notice it.”

    “Who would have thought that there is a submachine gun here!” Qiao Qiao was going crazy, “I have actually been living with this big killer for so many days.”

    Cheng Xiu took out the submachine gun from the box and completed the assembly in a few clicks. Then he said calmly: “Do you want it?”

    “What do I need this for—wait, do you still have it?”

    Looking at Cheng Xiu’s calm gaze, Qiao Qiao knew that this guy was serious. Maybe she had been riding in an off-road vehicle for the past two days, but a four-wheeled weapons arsenal.

    Qiao Qiao waved his hands repeatedly: “No, no, no.”

    Cheng Xiu pulled out a pistol from his waist and handed it to Qiao Qiao: “Just in case.”

    “Wait a minute!” Seeing that he was about to open the skylight, Qiao Qiao quickly stopped him: “It’s better… don’t make such a big fight, right?”

    Cheng Xiu thought for a while and nodded: “You are right.”

    After saying that, he took out a silencer from nowhere and installed it on the submachine gun.

    Qiao Qiao: “…”

    Brother, you seem to have misunderstood what I meant, ah, forget it.

    As soon as Cheng Xiu opened the skylight, the dogs below began to commotion.

    While Qiao Qiao and Cheng Xiu were talking, the dog pack had already gathered within one meter of the off-road vehicle, and some of them even eagerly pounced on the vehicle to bite the tires.These dogs are of a special breed, and their teeth are incredibly sharp and powerful. If it were an ordinary car tire, it might have been punctured by the sharp claws and fangs, but unfortunately, this off-road vehicle is a military product, and the tires have been bulletproofed. Even if these dogs bite until dawn, the tires will not be substantially damaged.

    As soon as the dogs who were helpless against the tires saw someone coming out, they jumped on the car like crazy and tried to attack him. Their powerful hind legs could jump to a height of almost two meters. If there was enough space for them to run, they would definitely jump even higher.

    However, no matter how aggressively these mastiffs take off, they will all fall sharply from the highest point without exception.

    The stretched body seems to be grasped by a pair of invisible big hands, the limbs suddenly twist, and the leaping movement stops abruptly. Then you can hear a muffled sound like a sack falling to the ground, and finally a few tooth-breaking ‘gurgles’.

    Those were the mastiff’s ‘last words’ uttered by rubbing its upper and lower teeth as it struggled to death.

    Cheng Xiu was like the god of death. Wherever he looked, when the trigger was pulled, no one was left alive.

    He even took the time to calculate the amount of bullets to use. When he could use one bullet to pierce the bodies of two mastiffs, he would never use two.The submachine gun was as obedient as a kitten in his hand. Each dog was shot to death with its spine broken with precision. This was a relatively painful way to die, and they often had to struggle in the mud for a long time before these dogs took their last breath.

    Qiao Qiao later asked Cheng Xiu why he didn’t just shoot the heart or head. Cheng Xiu’s answer at that time was: “I’m used to it.”

    This was a horrifying answer. At that time, Qiao Qiao wondered whether Cheng Xiu was not fundamentally different from his surly young master?

    Is it just a different form of expression?
