The Complete Guide To Rearing An Alien Boyfriend Chapter 40 The Dilemma

The sound seemed to be coming from mid-air.

When Long Xi looked up, she saw a drone in mid-air with cameras and microphones on it.

Despite what the voice had just said, Long Xi rushed to her grandma's side.

The hemp rope was tied in a tight knot; no matter how hard she tried, she could not loosen it.

"Xixi, you go! I'm tired of living and I won't live much longer! You go, go! Otherwise, grandma will be angry!" Grandma was insistent.

"Shut up! Stop talking! I'll get distracted." Long Xi said angrily.

"Xixi, go! I beg you to go! Otherwise, we'll both be run over by the roller coaster!" Grandma begged her.

Long Xi shouted at the drone, "Please, let my grandmother go! I'll do anything!"

A mature male voice came from the drone. "My daughter-in-law, as your father-in-law I will send you a pair of scissors!""

Long Xi took a closer look. There was a red rope hanging from the drone and attached to the rope was a pair of small scissors.

The drone flew low towards Long Xi.

Long Xi tried to keep her balance. She held on to the track of the roller coaster with one hand and tried to grab the scissors with the other.

Suddenly the drone swerved sideways and Long Xi caught nothing.

Long Xi was sweating profusely.

Suddenly she lowered her head and rubbed her eyes with one hand as if the sweat had gone into her eyes.

Once again, the drone came low, like a cat playing with a mouse.

Long Xi had just pretended to rub her eyes; the purpose was to fool the opponents and lure the drone to come nearer.

She suddenly stretched out her hand, grasped the scissors firmly and pulled as hard as she could.

The drone crashed into the track with a loud "boom".

The drone could not take off and she quickly cut the red rope with the scissors.

The drone then flew away.

Long Xi used the scissors to cut the hemp rope.

The scissors were really small, the type meant for children's paper cutting. They could be used to cut small lines, but not thick hemp rope.

With extreme difficulty, Long Xi took nearly two minutes to cut off the hemp rope tied to her grandma's left hand.

She didn't count the time.

She had made up her mind that if she could not save her grandmother, she would rather die with her.

She managed to cut off the hemp rope on grandma's right hand as well.

"Follow me," Long Xi said to her grandmother.

She crawled backward on all fours and grandma followed her.

She turned with difficulty, climbed back into the seat of the roller coaster and pulled her grandmother over.

She had just helped her grandmother to strap on her seat belt when the roller coaster started.

She quickly strapped on her seat belt.

The roller coaster was climbing up.

Long Xi held her grandmother tightly and said, "I'm here! Grandma, you must listen to me, be obedient and don't be afraid!"

Grandma had a weak heart and high blood pressure. Could she withstand the downhill swoop of the ride? This was her biggest worry for the moment.

The roller coaster went downhill!

Grandma fainted.

The roller coaster came to the end and stopped slowly.

Long Xi pinched her grandmother with one hand and rubbed her temple with the other.

She untied their seat belts, took grandma out, let her lie on the ground and performed CPR on her.

Fortunately, she had been a member of the Boy Scouts and knew how to administer first aid.

After a few minutes, grandma finally opened her eyes slowly. Long Xi felt that these minutes were as long as centuries.

She lay down beside her grandmother and cried.

Grandma said lovingly, "Hey, don't cry! I'm fine!"

"Yinyinyin..." Long Xi cried even more. It was a cry of grievance, fear, anger and also a bit of petulance towards Grandma.

"Now, you bring the old woman to the merry-go-round." There was another voice from the drone, a young man's voice.

"Old woman? You are the old woman here! Your whole families are all old women!" Long Xi scolded them silently in her heart.

She dared not curse out loud because she was afraid that they would be provoked to do something even crazier.

She took her grandmother to the merry-go-round horse and laid her on the bench next to it.

"Well, now, I will give you, female straight-A student, one simple choice question. Do you want to save Wei Wei and the old woman will stay here forever. Or you can save the old woman and let Wei Wei stay here forever. There is no third choice, you can only choose one of the two," said the young man in a malicious tone.

Long Xi was totally stunned.

Sure enough, there was no most abnormal, only more abnormal!

How could she make a choice? It was a no-win situation!

Grandma said in a feeble voice, "Choose Wei Wei. Grandma doesn't have many years to live! But she's still young!"

Wei Wei looked at Long Xi pleadingly. The meaning of that look was quite obvious; it said, "Please save me, I don't want to stay here".

Long Xi burst into tears.

"Now on the count of three. If you don't make a choice, all three of you will have to stay. Three, two..." said the young man.

"I choose B!" Long Xi closed her eyes, covered her ears and shouted loudly.

"Well, your choice is just right for me! Wei Wei's figure is so good! Hey-hey-hey! You guys really are plastic sisters!" The young man gave an indecent laugh.

Wei Wei's eyes were full of fear and despair.

Long Xi dared not face her and her tears could not stop flowing.

Grandma said softly, "Xixi, it's not your fault, don't blame yourself! Aren't you the one who always says not to punish yourself with other people's mistakes?"

Long Xi squatted beside Wei Wei and said in a low voice, "I'm sorry! Once I leave this place, I will inform the police and your parents as soon as possible."

She still dared not look at Wei Wei. She ducked her head and ran back to her grandmother.

Grandma s.h.i.+vered with cold.

Long Xi saw that there was a large colored cloth parasol in the snack bar nearby, so she cut off the piece of cloth on the parasol and used that to cover grandma's body.

"Now you have two choices. One is to continue to save the next person, which is Mo Kun. Another is to leave this place with your grandmother." The mature male voice said.

"I choose to continue to save people!" Long Xi said almost without hesitation.

"Very well, I really didn't choose the wrong person! You are a unique character for my collection," said the mature male voice.

"Collection? What do you mean?" Long Xi asked breathlessly.

"Some people like to collect antiques, some people like to collect stamps, but I like to collect people, different types of people. I like to watch them struggle. You are the kind of person in my collection that is different from others and what I'm short of," said the mature male voice.

The young man's voice said, "Daddy, your eyes are so sharp. I am really amazed by you! From the second day of school when Jiang Ba sent all his cla.s.smates' information to the headquarters of the Brutal Pranks Gang, you already picked her. You deserve to be the second leader of the whole Pranks Gang! Daddy, I'm proud of you!"
