QT: Grace To Grass Counterattack System

Chapter 204 Little Mandron Soldier 27



After a moment of hesitation, 888 decided against it and just quietly imbued his energy into his host. Their last conversation hadn\'t gone in the best way and he\'d been feeling a little awful since then but there was nothing he could do about it.

Over in the Yang home, Yang Zhi was seated in his study with his head lowered and a strong shot of alcohol swirling in the glass in his hand. He\'d just received a message from a friend that the Dings had hired a Private Investigator in addition to the Special Ops team and Fed police.

The information had easily gotten to him in the first place because they weren\'t even trying to hide it. At the moment, the entire issue had gone from a matter of \'If he would get caught\' to \'When he would get caught.\'

He\'d just taken a big gulp of his drink when,

PING!

Yang Zhi paid no mind to his bracelet but when he casually looked and saw a communication request from Mrs. Xia, he sat up in his seat at the speed of light and set down his drink.

Just what did this mean? Investigations were already going on so there was no need for the General\'s mother to contact him unless... Unless there was something she needed from him?

Xia Yueyu -with her husband seated beside her- watched as Yang Zhi appeared on the holographic interface of her tab. She had first gone over to reapply her make up to appear as pristine as usual.

When dealing with people like Yang Zhi, it was imperative to strike first and gain the upper hand so she began with a condescending glare, "We have evidence that you are responsible for acquiring the banned AO6.H.A drug."

Yang Zhi\'s heart leapt in his throat. So soon? It was over. His career and affluence flashed before his very eyes as he opened his mouth to weakly defend himself, "I don\'t-"

"Let me finish." Xia Yueyu cut in sharply. "Just one click and the evidence would be in the hands of both the Twelve-army Coalition and the Fed police." She paused. "I don\'t need to tell you what that would do to you."

Yang Zhi frowned. He was completely aware. He would be dishonourably discharged from the army, pay a really hefty fine and would still end up in jail for possession and peddling of banned drugs. Even his daughter, Yang Liu, would not be safe as she would be pinned with the charge of an accomplise and would have to pay a hefty fine too.

Seeing Yang Zhi\'s increasingly dreadful expression, Xia Yueyu knew she had him where she wanted him to be. She cleared her throat and said as casually as possible, "There could be a way out."

Hope shone in Yang Zhi\'s eyes. "What?"

Ding Wang exchanged a subtle glance with his wife before speaking up, "You must have seen the news on the Federation network by now."

Yang Zhi narrowed his eyes. Of course he\'d seen the news. It was all about Yang Liqin and his Yang family. It had caused his bracelet to ping so much that he had no choice but to activate a blocker to filter out all the Federation news. He nodded as he answered, "Yes. Yes I have."

Ding Wang cleared his throat. "With Min\'er\'s state, we need someone who is already familiar with the process of accompanying him so we are willing to forget everything and drop all charges as long as Yang Xue returns to the Ding family to accompany Min\'er once more."

Yang Zhi blinked in confusion. "...What?" He didn\'t hear wrong right? Why would the Dings suddenly need Yang Xue back? And what did Mr. Ding mean by the General\'s state?

Xia Yueyu clenched her fists impatiently. Her son was most probably going through so much pain at the moment, she did not have the time to play Yang Zhi\'s silly games. "Don\'t act ignorant. The news is already everywhere. Just have Yang Xue sent over within the week and all charges would be dropped."

And then the hologram flicked close.

Xia Yueyu and Ding Wang exchanged looks once more. They had to appear as if they were the ones being generous so they held back from looking too eager before Yang Zhi.

Yang Zhi thoughtfully eyed the spot where the holographic versions of Xia Yueyu and Ding Wang had been a while ago before lowering his head and removing the block he\'d placed on his bracelet.

Immediately, numerous news articles appeared in his sight but, surprisingly, very little of them had to do with the Yang family scandal.

#BREAKING NEWS! Interstellar Hero, General Ding, Suspected To Have Been Infected With The Xor Magnetic Energy Once More.

#INVANSION FROM NEW SPECIES: Earth Born Hero, General Ding, Gains Terrifying Injuries From What Is Suspected To Be An Attack From A Rising Enemy In The Outer Universe!

#JUST IN: Latest News On The Yang Family\'s, Yang Liqin\'s, Case.

#FALSE ASSURANCE OF RECOVERY: Plexar Federation Darling, General Ding, Allegedly Going To Die Soon!

#MAGNETIC METEORITE LANDS ON INTERSTELLAR HERO! Unidentified Magnetic Meteorite Suspected To Have Slipped Through Space Station Detectors And Land On Northsene Parking Lot, Earth Capital. Witnesses Claim To Have Seen General\'s Ding\'s Hover Car Dismantling Moments Before The Meteriote Slammed Into Said Hero And Formed A Huge Crater At The Centre Of The Parking Lot!

Yang Zhi read article upon article and with each new article he read, the stronger the string of hope became in his heart. "Good. Good! GOOD!" He shouted repeatedly as he burst into loud laughter.

The Universe was on his side! He wasn\'t exactly clear on the news but one thing was certain. Ding Weimin had been infected with the magnetic energy once more! Such a thing should have been quickly handled by the Dings but they contacted him instead.

What did this mean? Well... It simply meant that just like last time, there was no telling whether the General would be able to survive it. In fact, the current situation might be even worse than last time!

At a time like this, no one would be willing to get too close to the General unless they had a death wish so who else could the Ding family go to for companionship if not the naive Yang Xue? If he sent Yang Xue over to them, won\'t all his problems be solved?

Yang Zhi let out another loud laughter as he quickly tried to send out a communication request to Yang Xue but then realized that he\'d angrily destroyed Yang Xue\'s contact codes after he walked away from the living room earlier.

He tsked before contacting Yang Liu instead. Immediately the request was accepted, he said, "Get Yang Xue\'s contact codes and come to my study immediately!"

Five minutes later, Yang Liu appeared in her father\'s study. "Father?"

Yang Zhi smiled. "A\'Liu, come. Give me the codes." Without pausing to explain anything to Yang Liu, he sent out a communication request to Yang Xue.

Location: Cladis;

One corner of He Yuan\'s lips arched when he saw the request from Yang Zhi. Although he had seen everything on the news, it was a bit difficult to know the exact situation of things so he\'d banked on the prediction that someone from Earth would unintentionally give him an idea of the overall situation by contacting him.

Apparently that someone was Yang Zhi and he called just in time too. He Yuan raised his head to the skies with a chuckle. He was currently taking a stroll in one of the busiest tourist locations on Cladis. This was because the high number of people with hyper functioning bracelets would make it difficult for his location to be accurately pinpointed by others.

He accepted the call but turned off the holographic function so his location couldn\'t be seen. "What?"

Yang Liu frowned in confusion at the pure black holographic interface whilst Yang Zhi was a bit taken aback by Yang Xue\'s icy tone. He decided to let it go for now. "Where are you? Return to Earth immediately."

888 raised a brow. Such a straightforward command. Did he think Yang Xue did not have a life of his own?

Even He Yuan coudn\'t stop himself from laughing softly. Was Yang Zhi being serious? The strong sense of entitlement the Yangs felt towards Yang Xue was quite baffling. "Why?"

Yang Zhi cleared his throat. "The Dings have realized their mistake and want you back in the Ding mansion."

He Yuan chuckled again. "The Ding mansion was never my home in the first place so why should I go back? I\'m not interested."

Yang Zhi felt anger begin to well up in his chest. "Yang Xue don\'t be unreasonable. Come back to Earth imm-" He suddenly paused with wide eyes when the holographic screen abruptly flicked shut.

Yang Liu watched as her father\'s chest violently rose up and down in a bid to curb his rage. She took a step back before asking, "Wh... what exactly is going on father?"

Yang Zhi slowly turned to Yang Liu and took a deep breath. Next, he sent Yang Xue\'s codes to one of his aquaintances to trace. In the mean time, he had to think of a method to hold of the Ding family until Yang Xue was dragged back from whatever crude Planet he had hidden himself in.

Yang Liu was his most intelligent child. She could probably figure something out faster than he could so for the next few minutes, Yang Zhi gave his eldest child a quick rundown of things.

The second Yang Zhi finished explaining things to Yang Liu, the woman\'s fists clenched. The last time Yang Xue had been chosen to accompany General Ding, nothing had happened to him in the end.

This only meant that since it was dangerous to be close to General Ding, the Ding family must have set up tons of protective measures to protect Yang Xue\'s life.

Yang Liu looked to her father with a hopeful expression. "How about I disguise myself and go in Yang Xue\'s place?"

Yang Zhi\'s eyes widened. "No!" He refused Immediately. Yang Liu was his most sensible child. Although he still had Yang Xiang and Yang Teng left, Yang Xiang did not see past Jin Yusheng and Yang Teng didn\'t bother about anything. His son\'s saving grace was the fact that he was a son and that was it.

There was no way he could endanger Yang Liu\'s life like that!

Seeing her father\'s unwilling expression, Yang Liu rushed over to hold her his arm. This was her only chance, how could she let it go like that?! A pleading expression marred her features as she said, "Hear me out first. I\'m not going to get close to the General at all. I would only pretend to be Yang Xue until he is found! Think of how this would save both our necks and Yang Liqin!"

Yang Zhi froze and a thoughtful expression appeared in his face. A\'Liu was right. The Dings had only given him until the end of the week to provide Yang Xue. What if they chose someone else I the end?

What would be one of him and his precious daughter then?
