Chapter 491
In fact, Wisdom didn''t sleep very well.
All the things he had suffered over the past few days made it impossible for him to fall asleep.
Wisdom woke up shortly after Mango left, and he was surprised to find Zion sitting next to him.
"Why are you here?"
"I''m afraid you''ll oversleep."
Zion said in a low voice, then he stood up to pour Wisdom a ss of water.
Honestly, Wisdom felt a little bbergasted.
Usually, he was the one serving Zion in the past. Now that the roles were reversed, Wisdom was a
little unustomed to it.
"Take it!"
Zion saw Wisdom staring at him like a fool and he wondered if thetter had been beaten silly.
Then, Wisdom took the cup in a hurry while giggling.
"What are youughing at?"
"Nothing. It just feels great to have you at home."
Wisdom''s words made Zion a little speechless.
Thetter then walked to the door while looking outside. Next, Zion locked the door when he
realized that no one was paying attention to them before sitting down next to Wisdom.
The other boy was curious at Zion''s actions.
"What are you doing?"
"I have something to tell you."
Zion had a mysterious look on his face, which aroused Wisdom''s curiosity.
"What''s the matter?"
Zion gazed at Wisdom with an uncertain look, and it made thetter feel uneasy as well.
"What do you want to tell me?"
"Let''s run away from home."
Zion''s words startled Wisdom.
"Run away from home? Are you crazy?"
"Shhh!"
Zion quickly covered Wisdom''s mouth before saying, "You still want to stay? Look at your wounds,
even though Grandma and my Daddy are protecting you, but Uncle is still your father nheless.
What can we do if he wants to take you away? By that time, we can''t stop him, and you''ll suffer in
the end."
Wisdom''s gaze suddenly darkened.
"But he''s my Daddy! So, I have to listen to him, and he''s doing this for my good. Also, people are
saying that Daddy is training me well."
"That''s crap! We can teach ourselves! Do you remember our old coach? We did pretty well back
then, right? Your Daddy is insane, and he''ll end up killing you! By then, I won''t have a brother
anymore."
Zion''s words rendered Wisdom silent.
To be honest, he didn''t want to go back to the base with Nick.
It was too miserable.
Moreover, Nick''s requirements for him were extremely strict. Not a single one of the training projects
he had set up could bepleted by Wisdom.
"I can leave by myself, but Uncle and Mommy will be sad if you follow me."
Wisdom looked at Zion and he knew that he was different.
Nathaniel and Mango loved Zion dearly.
However, Zion said indifferently, "It''s fine. I''ll leave them a letter."
"Where do you want to go? Do you have an idea?"
Wisdom noticed a gleam in Zion''s eyes. He suddenly recalled the fact that Zion had never done
anything without a well- thought- out n.
Zion smirked and he procured a business card, "Look, this is a shooting club, and it seems to be a
nice ce. I met this man at the amusement park the other day, and he told Mommy that he''d train
me into an amazing shooter if I join them. You''re good with guns too, so we can go there together!
Plus, I think room and board are provided, so we won''t be exposed to the elements. I have some
money with me, so we have enough to spend."
Wisdom frowned when he saw the business card before asking, "Is this person reliable?"

"Well, I guess we''ll find out if we go there. If it''s an awful ce, then we''ll just escape by ourselves.
Rx, if you''re not going, then I''m going alone. But you''re not allowed to tell Mommy and Daddy
where I go after leaving, okay?"
Zion said as he put away the business card cautiously.
Wisdom couldn''t help but feel tempted when he saw Zion''s eager expression.
Wisdom''s entire body ached in pain. Although his wounds were treated, did it mean that he had to
leave the Ye family if his father said so?
If Wisdom returned to the base, he would need to undergo grueling training again, and he might
even be beaten.
Instead, it would be better to go to the shooting club with Zion. At least, he would learn some skills
there.
Wisdom muttered as he thought of this, "When are we leaving?"
"Tonight. I wanted to wait a couple more days, but if Uncle is leaving tomorrow, he''ll take you with
him. By then, it''ll be hard to find you. So think about whether you want to leave with me. Don''t worry,
I''ll take care of you."
Zion patted Wisdom''s shoulder reassuringly.
Wisdom ached a little, but he became excited.
"I''ll go with you!"
Wisdom didn''t want to live his life ording to Nick''s wishes. Besides, he was unable to meet his
father''s requirements despite doing his best, and that hurt him.
Zion was delighted upon hearing Wisdom''s words.
"Then I''ll go back and pack up my things." "What are you packing up for? Why don''t we just take the
bank card with us?"
Wisdom''s words caused Zion to roll his eyes.
"Are you stupid? Once we pay with our cards, they will know where we are, right? So we can only
bring cash."
"You''re right! Why didn''t I think of that?"
Wisdom rubbed the back of his head and he said. "If we bring arge amount of cash, what
happens if we get mugged?"
"Don''t worry, I have my ways!"
Zion said mysteriously and he then whispered, "Keep a lookout for me, and I''ll go and pack."
"All right."
Wisdom and Zion crawled out of bed and they snuck out of the bedroom. Then, they tiptoed into
Zion''s room upon noticing that the adults were still talking.
Zion took out his bag to stuff some clothes and his important items inside. Then, he stored some
cash as well before cing the bag under the bed.
Wisdom asked in a low voice, "Do I need to prepare a bag as well? But I seem to leave it at the
base." "No need. One of them is enough, and the clothes fit both of us. All in all, we need to pack
light."
Zion seemed extremely confident in what he was about to do.
Furthermore, Wisdom was used to obey that kid.
He felt that Zion was smarter than him and that the other boy always had a n. Thus, Wisdom
would be safe with Zion.
After the both of them finished preparing, they snuck back to Mango''s room beforeying on her
bed side by side.
Zion''s heart was filled with excitement and expectation.
"After the dinner, we''ll go to bed but set an rm for eleven-thirty. We''ll then meet in the hall."
Wisdom nodded at Zion''s arrangements, but then he whispered, "What if someone discovers us?"
"Just say that we got up to drink water."
Zion replied casually.
Wisdom nodded quickly.
"But there are guards outside, so how will we get past them?"
Wisdom asked once again.
Zion replied softly, "Are you an idiot? Have you forgotten who I am? Don''t worry, I''ll distract them."
Wisdom looked at Zion admiringly before saying, "You''ve always been smarter than me.
"Well, you''re not stupid either, so don''t sell yourself short. Without you, I wouldn''t know what to do."
"Really?"
"Of course! When have I ever lied to you?"
Zion smiled faintly.
Wisdom felt much better after hearing Zion''s words.
Both of them put their arms beneath their heads as they looked up at the ceiling. At a nce, they
really did look like brothers.
"Wisdom."
"Hm?"
"What do you think we''ll do when we grow up?"
Zion asked calmly.
Wisdom then frowned slightly.
"My father said that he wants me to inherit the HY Group and be the head of the Ye family."
"I''m not asking what your father wants you to do. I want to know your dream."
Zion''s words made Wisdom fall silent.
After a while, he said gloomily, "I don''t know."
"Don''t you like anything? Don''t you have something special you''d like to do?"
"What do you want to do then?"
Wisdom asked Zion right away.
Zion said smilingly, "I want to be a soldier, a pilot in fact! I want to fly my ne up in the skies. I want
to be a true soldier to guard my country with a gun in my hands."
When he heard Zion''s words, Wisdom waspletely astonished.
"You want to be a soldier?"
"That''s right! Good men should join the army."
Zion was especially looking forward to joining the army.
However, Wisdom frowned before saying, "But Uncle also has his ownpany. Won''t you take
overter?"
"There''s still Rita, right? I''ll let her or her husband handle it. After all, I''m not interested in it at all. I
like weapons and sting stuff apart."
The more Zion thought about it, the more he yearned for it.
Wisdom suddenly piped up when he saw how motivated Zion was with his own goals, "Then I''ll join
the army just like you. I will follow wherever you go!"
"Really?"
"Of course!"
Wisdom raised his head and he looked seriously at Zion.
Zion quickly stretched out his pinky finger and he said, "Pinky swear."
"Pinky swear! No one gets to break this promise!"
Wisdom''s pinky was tightly intertwined with Zion''s, and they pressed their thumbs together. Both
innocent and bold boys thenughed loudly together.
At that moment, Mango walked upstairs but she could not open the door.
"Zion? Are you asleep? Why is the door locked?"
Hearing Mango''s voice, Wisdom immediately pretended to be asleep while Zion climbed out of bed
to open the door quickly.
"Mommy!"
"Why did you lock the door?"
"I don''t know. Didn''t you lock it?"
Zion lookedpletely innocent.
Mango frowned when she saw her son''s expression.
Did she lock it?
Why didn''t she remember doing it?
Was her memory declining due to her poor health?
As Mango doubted herself, she did not notice the crafty look in Zion''s eyes.
At that moment, Wisdom suddenly whimpered and it immediately attracted Mango''s attention.
