Chapter 5864: Delaying Time as Sister Nian Wishes

She ignored Sai Lan's suddenly cold eyes, and glanced at the rest of the people in the command room, and said softly as if she was seeking truth from facts: "Whoever goes out today has chosen a 'back road' in advance. When the ten elders come, I will tell them the truth."

The patriarchs of the Dowell family, the Brown family, and the remaining families changed their expressions one by one. Some people were eager to follow her out, but they stopped thinking after hearing this.

They just wanted to go out and see the legendary sun, but they didn't want to be involved in the increasingly fierce internal strife of the Theron family.

Aileenwo's few words accurately pinched their vital points. If they were not fools, they would not insist on trying to see if she would complain.

Ailinwo simply had someone send a chair to sit at the door. She sat down with a calm look, blocked the exit, and said to Sai Lan and others: "I will sit here today. Before Theron comes back, anyone who wants to go out can step over my body."

"Hmph!" Sai Lan laughed angrily and squinted at her coldly: "I think Qiao Nian said something to you?"

Ailinwo did not move at all and even closed her eyes, as if she blocked her ears and could not hear anything. She stood there like a stone statue, with a mighty power that could not be broken by ten thousand men.

Seeing her pretending to be stupid, Sai Lan gritted her teeth and pointed the sniper rifle in her hand at the woman with closed eyes: "Get out of the way!"

Dowell's father and others immediately stopped her: "Miss, don't be impulsive!"

Someone else tried to block the gun: "Yes, Miss, don't be impulsive."

Sai Lan ignored these people and stared at the woman who closed her eyes and pretended to be dead. Seeing that Ailinwo did not even raise her eyelids, she knew that she was determined not to get out of the way.

No matter how angry Sai Lan was, she had to sneer coldly: "Tsk, no wonder she can make my son die hard. But in just two minutes, even you can be her lackey. I underestimated her."

"But."

She changed her tone and said coldly: "Even if you risk your life to stop us from leaving, she is surrounded by us. My father will come back sooner or later, and she will definitely die."

Aileen Wo was indifferent, but she laughed at Sai Lan's threats in her heart. She wanted Qiao Nian to die more than anyone else, but there was a premise that Qiao Nian could not say anything extra before he died.

She now agreed to help Qiao Nian delay time, just to reach a cooperation with Qiao Nian. After the cooperation ended, she cared about Qiao Nian's life or death?

Seeing that she did not react, Sai Lan paused, then put down the gun, the gun barrel against the ground, and looked proudly at the woman blocking the road.

"...Qiao Nian will die today, and you will pay the price for your actions. I will tell the truth when my father comes back."

"Your words can fool the people in the command room, but not him! Ailinwo, you will regret helping her."

Ailinwo still closed her eyes and rested, as if she was deaf and dumb, unable to see or hear, and didn't want to respond.

She would rather the Ten Elders suspect that she helped Qiao Nian sneak into the Sixth Continent Research Institute, but she couldn't let Qiao Nian reveal the secret of her research on weapons to restrain the faders.

In the former case, she might be scolded, punished or alienated by Theron, and in the latter case... both she and the Ailin family would be finished! She knew which choice was the most beneficial to her, so she said calmly, "Miss, don't waste your energy. I won't give way before the Ten Elders come back."
