2722 She’s So Good
No matter how angry Demon King Li was, as the captain, he naturally knew his limits. Moreover, Q King had clearly told Demon King Li why Azure Bird did that. It was to protect the most important person.
Azure Bird knew the importance of Q King. Hence, she would rather take on the danger herself and protect Q King.
If it were any of their comrades, they would have made the same choice as Azure Bird!
Li Jinnian naturally understood it too. However, understanding it was one thing. Accepting it was another.
His fist landed on Xia Jinyuan’s abdomen. His eyes were bloodshot as he grabbed Xia Jinyuan’s collar and roared in a low voice, “Xia Jinyuan, is this how you take care of my cousin? You lost her?”
!!
This time, Xia Jinyuan didn’t retaliate. He didn’t have the right to.
However, he didn’t like Li Jinnian’s words. He stared at him with his dark eyes and shouted, “I didn’t lose her! I’m here, and you’re here. She has her family too! She finally found her family after much difficulty. She won’t let herself lose it!
“Li Jinnian, we didn’t lose her!” He almost shouted the last sentence.
He could hit and scold him, but he mustn’t say that he lost Azure Bird! He mustn’t!
“So you still remember that she just found her family! How could you let her face danger alone?” Li Jinnian, who had never lost his composure, seemed to want to burn Xia Jinyuan to ashes. “How could you… let her face danger alone? How could you do this?!
“So what if the black bear is a protected animal? If it endangers your lives, you can shoot at any time!
“According to the provisions of Article 341 of our criminal law, those who illegally hunt and kill precious and endangered wild animals that are protected by the country or illegally buy, transport, and sell precious and endangered wild animals and their products that are protected by the country will be sentenced to periods of not more than five years or criminal detention and fines. If the situation is serious, they’ll be sentenced to imprisonment of not less than five years and not more than ten years and fines. If the situation is especially serious, they’ll be sentenced to not less than ten years of imprisonment and fines or confiscation of a.s.sets.”
Xia Jinyuan’s voice was hoa.r.s.e as he slowly explained the rules of the criminal law on the protection of animals. “Demon King, I felt more heartache than you when Azure Bird went to hold back the black bear alone! She needed a reason to kill the black bear. If her life is in danger, she can kill the black bear. Legally speaking, it’s an emergency escape and she won’t have to bear legal responsibility.
“But we only have blank cartridges! They’re all blank cartridges! Shoot? I wanted to shoot too!”
As he spoke, Xia Jinyuan started shouting too.
One was Ye Jian’s cousin and the other was Ye Jian’s beloved man. Both of them loved Ye Jian deeply and were willing to use their lives to protect her.
Li Jinnian knew that Ye Jian’s choice was right, but he couldn’t accept the reality in front of him. When he heard the words ‘blank cartridges’, the anger in Li Jinnian’s heart soared and the panic in his heart surged.
Xia Jinyuan didn’t retaliate. He used his hand to block the attacks. Actually, he wanted to fight too. He wanted to fight to vent his frustration.
They didn’t fight for long. Ten minutes later, Li Jinnian retracted his fist and leaned against the tree. He said to Xia Jinyuan, who hadn’t retaliated, “Since you managed to get together with my cousin, you must have cultivated a few lifetimes of good fortune!
“Most women will instinctively look for their boyfriends to avoid danger. But what about my cousin? She even rushed out to protect you. Xia Jinyuan, my cousin is such a good girl. I’m really unwilling to let you be with her and marry her!”
