Jiang Ning couldn’t be bothered with her nonsense. “Since we’re causing you bad luck, it’s better for you to roll away immediately.”

“Why should we move?” Zeng Nianlun’s wife stared at her resentfully. “You’ve caused my son to be kidnapped and injured my husband. This isn’t over!”

Jiang Ning was speechless. “What do you want?”

Zeng Nianlun held onto his wife while enduring the pain as he looked at Jiang Ning and the others. “I’m really sorry, I was unscrupulous in doing this. I shouldn’t have targeted you guys.

But I really had no choice. Abao is only eight years old. If I don’t do as they say, they’ll kill him.

I brought this upon myself, but it’s not fair to involve innocent children. Could you help me rescue Abao?”

Jiang Ning couldn’t believe he had the nerve to say such things. Was his son’s life more valuable than those on the 18th floor?

Self-preservation is human nature. He hides at the first sign of danger but continuously sends people from the 18th floor to their deaths, and now he expects them to sacrifice their lives to save his son…

Jiang Ning was blunt, “What are you daydreaming about?”

She ignored him and went straight to 1702, kicking the door. “If you have the guts, stay hidden inside forever.”

Thinking her threat wasn’t enough, Zheng Weili joined in, kicking the door harder. “Listen up, if you don’t come out now, I’ll dismantle your door!”

However, 1702 remained closed.

“Fine, you all can do it,” Jiang Ning sneered. “If they come back again, it won’t be the 18th floor’s loss.”

She didn’t pay attention to anyone else and turned to go upstairs.

Zheng Weili and the others did the same. Who would want to be a scapegoat again? They’ll wait until the 17th floor breaks down before deciding.

Zeng Nianlun’s wife still wanted to hold Jiang Ning accountable, but she was tightly held back by her husband.

“Wife, listen to me, I’m not going to make it.”

She hugged Zeng Nianlun and cried loudly, “No, you won’t die, my husband.”

“It’s my fault, I didn’t keep an eye on our son.”

It’s so cold and the damp cold seeped into his bones.

It was also painful, and he felt like his organs were gradually stiffening.

“Wife, after I’m gone, don’t cause trouble for the 18th floor.” Zeng Nianlun struggled to get up, “Those people won’t let the 18th floor off, and the 18th floor won’t compromise either.

You have to live well, live for me until Abao comes back.”

“Husband, I can’t live without you.”

“If the 18th floor wins, maybe Abao will have a chance to come back. You need to leave now and find a place to hide, you shouldn’t care about anyone or anything.”

With his bleeding body, Zeng Nianlun took a kitchen knife from the kitchen and struggled downstairs, “I’m going to find those people and fight them to the death. You…you can’t die, you absolutely can’t die, you must keep Abao alive!”

The woman was heartbroken, “Husband, husband!”

Ignoring everything, Zeng Nianlun stubbornly walked downstairs. He’s clinging to his last bit of consciousness…

Just as he reached the 7th floor, after only a few steps on the solid ice, his stiff body collapsed to the ground and never got up again.

As Jiang Ning opened the door, Coke lunged at her fiercely and barked aggressively.

While barking, it scratched her.

Sensing its anger, Jiang Ning squatted down and stroked its head, “Good boy, I’m fine.”

Ignoring her, the dog continued to bark.

With one swipe, it hit her face.

Jiang Ning who got beaten, “…”

Zheng Weili and the others were shocked. They didn’t expect the big boss’s dog to be so fierce and it even dared to attack its master.

What can they do? Both were important figures; they couldn’t pick sides.

So, everyone tacitly looked away and pretended not to see anything!

Coke clung to Jiang Ning while whimpering in her arms. The poop scooper considered it a burden and refused to help in the fight.

“Hey, my Coke is very powerful, but they have weapons that can kill.”

Jiang Ning kept comforting it, “Next time, next time you’ll join in, okay?”

Coke looked up at her, really? You’re not lying to this dog?

“Really.” Jiang Ning took its paw and made a pinky promise.

The domineering dog then let her go and stuck close to its master, unwilling to leave.

Envious looks from Lu Yu, “…”

Envious looks from Zhang Chao, “…”

Indeed, only the dog had the courage to slap Jiang Ning. Any other would have been dead countless times by now.

Anyway, they didn’t have that kind of courage.

The psychological shadow from childhood beatings by her hadn’t dissipated until now.

Ah, why is there such a big gap between being human and being a dog?

Huo Yishen opened the door, and Doudou also rushed over, pouting with tears in her eyes.

He gently stroked his sister’s head, “Don’t cry, brother is fine.”

Doudou hugged him tightly, “Brother, I can help too.”

Why is it that every time danger comes, they either tie her to a tree or lock her inside?

Once both emotions stabilized, all members of the 18th floor gathered in 1803.

Zhang Chao and Lu Yu placed the things they found on the table, “How do we divide these?”

The others were manageable, but the key was the three deadly weapons, which were really tempting.

Holding this thing in your hands gives you a lot of confidence.

Jiang Ning was also happy; finally, each member of the 18th floor had one.

Coke was cunning; it had seen the poop scooper play with these things and knew they were dangerous.

Without hesitation, it came over and picked one up, placing it in Jiang Ning’s hand.

Not satisfied, it picked up another one and held it in its mouth.

As long as it had these, the poop scooper wouldn’t lock it up.

Woof…Woof…

The crow above their heads screamed and was shocked by the dog’s antics, leaving everyone speechless for a moment.

Jiang Ning should have been pleased, but what was she going to do with it?

She could not operate these!

Jiang Ning smiled wryly, snatched them from its mouth, and put both back on the table.

No one would complain about having too many of these, but the 18th floor was a group, and having one didn’t mean much, so she didn’t rush to speak.

Seeing no one else speaking up, Zheng Weili thought for a moment, “How about one for each household?”

Zhang Chao and Lu Yu had no objections, hoping Jiang Ning and Huo Yishen would agree so they could feel more confident on guarding the floor.

Huo Yishen glanced at Jiang Ning and hesitated before speaking, “I can do without.”

Huh? Do without!

That’s right; he’s a skilled marksman; how could he look at these crude things? It would damage his image.

Jiang Ning wanted them, but she already had one, so she decided to give the remaining three to them for self-defense.

“I don’t want one either.”

Zheng Weili was puzzled, “Anning, why don’t you want one?”

Jiang Ning pretended to inspect the gun, “It’s quite rough, I’m worried it would malfunction?”

Huo Yishen took it out and quickly disassembled it.

Lu Yu and Zhang Chao were shocked at his speed…wow! Amazing!

He checked the parts, “It was made privately, but the materials are okay. As long as you don’t fire continuously, there’s no risk of barrel explosion.”

“How…how many shots count as continuous fire?”

“Don’t fire more than ten shots in a row.”

With that assurance, they felt relieved. There were only 34 bullets in total and it’s not even enough to fill the gap between their teeth.

Huo Yishen didn’t want one, but Zheng Weili insisted on giving one to Jiang Ning.

Jiang Ning knew Huo Yishen was giving her face, so she went along with it, “Today’s events can’t be resolved. In the future, we’ll be even more dangerous, and you must have something heavy to guard the floor.

It’s chaotic outside now; I’ll go out more in the next few days and maybe I can get another one.

For now, they can make do with these, and we’ll see if there’s a chance to upgrade in the future.”
