Chapter 1260: Save My Brother
The orphanage floated in the cosmos like a lone boat. A group stood below the camphor tree in the front yard like a ship crew waiting for their captain below the mast.
“Why hasn’t he come back?” Zhang Wei asked anxiously. He tried his best to cheer up and attempted levity, “He hasn’t been catfished, has he?”
No one responded. They were all lost in the storm of thoughts ravaging their minds.
Gao Yang was dead—more precisely, his fate had been killed by Pride. What did that mean? Now one knew for certain, but it couldn’t be anything good.
“No.” Wang Zikai rose to his feet, his expression eerily icy like he had torn off the mask of guilt and pain. “I have to talk to that woman.”
“About what?” Vermilion Bird asked.
“Pride killed Gao Yang’s fate. As Gao Yang’s system, she managed to sustain Gao Yang’s life. In other words, she took the killing blow to his fate. That’s why she left Gao Yang and arrived here before him.”
The others were shocked that Wang Zikai was able to connect the dots with such a clear mind.
In truth, Wang Zikai wasn’t an actual idiot. He simply didn’t care enough to think. He was so prideful that most matters didn’t register in his brain, and he deemed it beneath himself to think about them.
He seemed like a different person when he analyzed, “They must be talking in private because they have made a promise. Gao Yang’s likely asked to pay back the debt now. I’m gonna talk to her. If she wants payment, she can take my fate instead!”
“Brother Kai! Calm...calm down!” Zhang Wei ran up to him.
