Rebirth of the Superpower Queen
Chapter 52: The Endless Chaos
"I am Meng Zhiling!" Meng Zhiling did not avoid his gaze at all. She met his gaze and said calmly with a smile.
"Are you really Zhiling?" Absalom confirmed again in disbelief. He knew that in this life, God would not give him regrets all the time, and would also be fond of him once. Although Meng Zhiling looked completely different from before, he was very sure in his heart that the woman in front of him was Meng Zhiling, because except for her, no one else in the world dared to look at him directly like this, no one else dared to speak to him so confidently, and no one looked at him with eyes that were always three parts resentment and seven parts helplessness.
He was sure that the woman in front of him was the one he had been thinking about for several years. He just didn't know what had happened to her that even her appearance had changed.
He had heard rumors that Meng Zhiling was dead, but the last time he met Meng Fan, Meng Fan told him that she was indeed missing, and he was looking for her all over the world.
He almost believed it.
"So what if it is, so what if it isn't? In your heart, I'm already dead. What difference does it make if I die sooner or later?" Meng Zhiling sneered. She was probably the woman in the world who understood him best. She knew how to speak and it was easier to lower his guard.
"Zhi Ling..." Although Yuan Yongkai didn't know what had happened in the meantime, he was sure that the Meng Zhi Ling beside him was no longer the Meng Zhi Ling with whom he had made a marriage contract. But no matter how much she changed, the person he loved was still only her, only the girl named Meng Zhi Ling. He had never seen Meng Zhi Ling so self-deprecating and slightly sad. He covered her small hand with his distressed big hand, trying to feel her inner entanglement and trying to comfort her.
"Ah..." As soon as his hand touched Meng Zhiling, Yuan Yongkai felt a sudden burning pain on the palm of his hand. He couldn't help but scream. When he looked again, he found that the back of his hand had been burned by a ball of blue flame. Although the degree was not serious, for an ordinary person, this hand would definitely not be saved. Fortunately, Yuan Yongkai was not an ordinary person.
"Are you okay?" Meng Zhiling held Yuan Yongkai's hand, breathing softly, and lowered her head gently, which made Absalom, who was sitting opposite her, jealous and crazy.
"You'd better let go of his hand, otherwise I will not only want his hand, but his life." Absalom's eyes were red, and he glared at Meng Zhiling and Yuan Yongkai opposite him.
Because in his opinion, Meng Zhiling must care about Yuan Yongkai in her heart, otherwise she wouldn't care so much whether he was hurt, and she wouldn't be so gentle like a little woman, nervously holding Yuan Yongkai's hand and blowing gently.
Of course, at this moment, he was not the only one who had such thoughts.
Yuan Yongkai also thought the same thing. Looking at Meng Zhiling's nervous expression, he finally felt a little comforted.
Even if it wasn't love, even if she could never relax like a child in front of him like she did in front of Qiao Surong, he was already content that she was nervous and worried about his safety.
"You dare!" Meng Zhiling turned her head and glared at Absalom. He just had that ability to violate her bottom line again and again, but she couldn't do anything to him. She could only run away, even if she ran to the ends of the earth. She didn't want to see him again.
But in this life, she wants to completely resolve the things she avoided in her previous life, because she has understood that some things cannot be avoided by the heart just because the person avoids them. She already has the most important man in her heart and can no longer tolerate other people distracting her.
She will deal with the things from her previous life head-on.
"You want to try?" Absalom was not afraid of her threatening tone at all. He was used to putting pressure on everyone around him and would not let anyone around him threaten him.
"Do you think I'm still the same Meng Zhiling as before? Do you think I'll give you another chance to hurt the people I care about? I'm telling you, stop daydreaming. The person I want to protect, not even gods can hurt him in the slightest, let alone you?" Meng Zhiling said disdainfully, and the faces of several people emerged in her mind at the same time. Those people now were the ones she wanted to protect with all her might.
"You...haha, good, very good. I didn't expect that it feels like a lifetime ago when we meet again. You are no longer the Zhiling of the past, and I am no longer the Absolon of the past. Tell me, what is the ultimate purpose of coming here today?" After Absolon's anger, his mood suddenly turned into loneliness, with a little sadness and guilt.
As for what he felt guilty about, only he and Meng Zhiling knew.
"My purpose for coming here is simple. Since I came here with the Wild Wolf, I am speaking from their perspective. I hope you can give the Wolf Clan a chance and space to survive, rather than exterminating them completely or holding back. Anyway, I'm determined to take over Yindu. You can handle the Wolf Clan's affairs as you wish."
Seeing that Absalom's attitude had relaxed, Meng Zhiling also calmed down. However, she was not "being arrogant because of her favor" or taking advantage of the situation. What she wanted was nothing more than the favor she had shown to the wolf tribe. She also wanted the wolf tribe to understand that her words could save them, but could also destroy them, so that they would be more afraid of her when they met her in the future.
From the beginning, she never viewed the wolf tribe as equal partners.
Because in her eyes, except for Qiao Surong and those few people who are very important to her life, no one else is qualified to talk about equality with her, and no one is qualified to negotiate conditions for cooperation with her.
"Why do you think I will give you this face?" Absalom didn't want to agree to her. In fact, he wanted to pick all the stars in the sky and give them to her as long as she asked him. But he didn't expect that every time she asked him to negotiate conditions, it was always for others, not for him, or for him and her.
"It doesn't matter if you don't give me this face. I've already secured the Silver City, and the Wolf Tribe is now controlling a very important friend of mine. If the Wolf Tribe is gone, my friend will be gone, and the only connection between you and me will vanish completely. When we meet again, either you kill me or I take your head. This isn't a threat. I'm just stating what's to come. It's up to you to decide."
Meng Zhiling pretended not to care, and after she finished speaking, she crossed her arms and looked at the gentleman opposite. He seemed to have lost a lot of weight. This was her first impression, but she did not feel distressed, because he had already done something that made her feel even more distressed. Now, even if this man appeared in front of her, he could no longer stir up any ripples in her heart.
"If this isn't a threat, what is it? Tell me, what is this?" Absalom couldn't remain calm in the end. He stood up and approached Meng Zhiling with his face, just a few centimeters away.
He had been trying to remain calm, from the moment he learned that she was still alive, from the moment he learned that she was still alive in front of him.
But he found that he could never remain calm in front of this woman.
"Whatever you think is what it is. It doesn't matter. It doesn't matter whether you agree to my request or not. It's just another result." Meng Zhiling also tried to keep herself calm. Faced with such a handsome face suddenly appearing so close, it was difficult for her to maintain her inner composure.
"Okay, very good, I promise you, but..." Absalom nodded and smiled bitterly in his heart. After all, he could not refuse her request, even if it was an unreasonable one.
"Just what?"
"Just what?"
Yuan Yongkai and Yelang asked nervously at the same time. Yuan Yongkai was afraid that the ferocious Absalom, as rumored to be a legend, would make unreasonable demands on Meng Zhiling. After all, his relationship with Zhiling seemed a little unclear. As a person with such a strong desire for control, it was inevitable that he would make some demands.
The wild wolves are worried about minimizing their own interests, or in a fit of rage, their entire wolf clan will be buried in a sea of blood. Everyone knows that Mr. Pi is a particularly fickle person.
"I just want the Wolf Tribe to be my allies from now on. If you agree, we can discuss matters concerning the territory. If you don't agree, there's nothing I can do. Everyone knows I never do business at a loss, even if it's for someone I care about!"
While Absalom was speaking, his eyes were fixed on Meng Zhiling, as if there was no third person in this huge conference room. He deliberately said the words "someone he cares about" purely in response to Meng Zhiling's angry words just now.
Finally, after repeated consideration, the Wild Wolf nodded in agreement to such a request. The wolf tribe today is no longer as glamorous as it was decades ago. The wolf tribe is now in dire straits under the attack of several major European forces. Even if they can succeed in plotting against Absalom today, they will definitely not be able to escape the siege of other forces in the future. Besides, a vigilant person like Absalom will never give themselves any chance.
After weighing the pros and cons again and again, he finally sent a signal to the elders lying in ambush nearby to retreat. He didn't want to end up losing more than he gained, so if they agreed to submit, he would have a chance to make a name for himself. If he didn't agree, he might not even have a chance to survive.
"Come on, show the guest out!" After the deal was done, Absalom did not keep the guest. Even though he was really willing to do whatever it took to keep her, he finally chose to give up such a good opportunity because he had another big hobby in his life, which was gambling.
Bet on how cruel she is to herself.
"Wild Wolf, since the things I promised you have been agreed upon, what about the things you promised me? Where are my friends?" Meng Zhiling asked Wild Wolf as they just walked out of the hotel, because they had agreed that as long as Meng Zhiling and the others came out, they would definitely see Elder Shi waiting outside after saving Leng Yu, but now, there was no one there!
"Boom..." Before Yelang could answer or explain, he heard a loud bang above his head, followed by sparks flying all over the sky. It looked like a huge explosion had occurred in the hotel. Looking up, he saw that it was the fourteenth floor where Meng Zhiling and the others were just now. Melted glass shards were flying all over the sky, and the fire had engulfed the entire floor.
