Chapter 121

“I can protect you, trust me, okay?” Yuan Zheng finally spoke in a soft voice. His hand moved to rub Su Shi’s head, but then stopped halfway. Instead, he gently pulled Su Shi up by his hands and told him to sit beside him.

It was like this last time, and this time it was the same again.

Their rooms were right next to each other. No matter how powerful Dr. He’s subordinates were it would be impossible for them to silently abscond away with a living person right under the patrol team’s noses.

What’s more, Mu Shi was much stronger than he looked. Otherwise, why would Dr. He not be able to get anything from Mu Shi, even after having Mu Shi in the laboratory?

Translations are by vmnovels [dot] com, if you’re reading this anywhere else, then it was stolen.

If Dr. He really had ordered people to steal Mu Shi away, as long as Mu Shi called for help, Yuan Zheng would have definitely been able to hear him.

Looking at the evident doubt still in those eyes, Yuan Zheng’s gaze gradually dimmed. He smiled helplessly and gently stroked Mu Shi’s back: “Okay, let’s not talk about it anymore. It’s late. You have a good rest. I am here no matter what, so you don’t have to worry…”

Yuan Zheng stopped talking. He lowered his gaze and was silent for a moment. Then he abruptly brought the young man’s thin body into a gentle hug.

“Believe in me, okay?”

His voice was still very gentle and soft, but there was already a faint tone of pleading seeping through.

Again, Su Shi did not have the heart to trample on Yuan Zheng’s good will.

Of course he believed that the other person wouldn’t harm him, but the way the protagonist was protecting him was simply endangering his experience points.

Su Shi looked at his wretched [experience points] balance. The Su Shi who didn’t even know how the pot looked like in this world felt complicated at heart.

After a long silence, he nodded lightly, “I believe you.”

Hearing his answer, Yuan Zheng stopped breathing. He couldn’t help the upward curve of his lips, and his eyes finally lit up with a bright light.

“It’s getting late, get a good night’s sleep, and ask the guys to cook you more delicious food tomorrow morning.”

As if some invisible shackles were suddenly unlocked, Yuan Zheng’s tone seemed a lot lighter, and with a smile, he got up and walked away quickly, closing the door gently behind him.

The body was indeed exhausted, but there was still work to do.

Su Shi took a hasty shower, put on his clothes, and sat back on the bed. Then he pulled out the system that was dedicated to playing dead.

“The glasses are effective. It’s the person that you were using the glasses against that has a problem…”

The system knew what Su Shi wanted to ask. After holding back for a while, it cautiously said: “The glasses are equivalent to a skin add-on. It will change your image in the eyes of the characters in the plot, but ultimately, they only have an effect on the characters that are composed of data. There is no way to hide from the eyes of upper dimensional staff members.”

“Dr. Dark is also–”

Su Shi was stunned. Halfway through asking his question he suddenly realized that the name seemed really familiar.

The system waited for a while. Seeing that Su Shi did not continue to talk, it continued to explain while being very scared and on edge: “The Dark God is unwilling to concede and insisted on entering this world. He said he wants to torment the host for a good round. To offset the staff member’s mental losses, the main system allowed him to vent his personal anger in this world under the premise that he does not affect the plot.”

After that, Su Shi beat him to near death a second time.

Su Shi’s stomach hurt just thinking about it. He pulled on the quilt and fell on the bed. He pressed on his stomach and drew in a cold breath: “Do I even have the experience points to be penalized?”

The amount of experience points he had in his account was clearly not enough to pay a penalty fee.

The system stalled for a bit before replying in a small voice: “The penalty is over. I paid the remaining difference… I believe that the host will definitely pay me back!”

A moment of silence passed, but there was no response [from Su Shi], and the mechanical voice stuttered without confidence: “The host will pay me back, right?”

The person lying on the bed was tightly covered with the quilt, and his breathing was steady and long. It turned out that the host had fallen asleep without the system realizing it.

Translations by Vanilla Muse.

Fortunately, the host had only fallen asleep, and wasn’t ignoring him. When the host woke up, he would definitely work hard to earn experience points and repay it to the system.

The system finally breathed a sigh of relief, rejoiced, and safely switched to the dormant state.

After another while, the door was gently opened.

Yuan Zheng went in and looked around. Seeing the situation on the bed, his eyes could not help but become soaked in warmth and exasperation.

He waited patiently for a while, and saw that the person wrapped in the quilt was still motionless and sound asleep, so he lightly turned off the light. Then he adjusted Su Shi’s position on the bed, and carefully tucked the quilt in for him. He also attentively closed the window.

After carefully checking that nothing was amiss, Yuan Zheng walked out the door on silent feet. He spread out his mental energy and blanketed the young man’s room with it. Now, he would be able to detect even the slightest movement.

After doing all this, he finally relaxed, went back to his bedroom and lay down, and then went to sleep peacefully.

Chapter 62 – Qin Family

Over the next few days, Lin Da Zhuang wanted to talk to Zhang Hui Niang about Lin Jia Bao, but every time he tried, he couldn’t get the words past his lips.

Afterwards, when he was discussing with Lin Jia Wen, he said: “Why don’t we wait for your wife to give birth first? Your mother has been busy lately, if we tell her she’ll feel ill at ease.”

“En, we’ll do as Dad says. It will soon be the autumn harvest. The family has more land this year, and the newly purchased land will have to be taken care of. The family will be busy for a while. I am afraid that there will not be enough manpower. It seems that we will need to hire two people.” Lin Jia Wen thought about it and agreed with his dad’s idea.

Translations are by vmnovels [dot] com, if you’re reading this anywhere else, then it was stolen.

“En, indeed, we need to hire some people. This time, let’s hire a few more people, ba. Jia Wen, don’t go to the fields this time. Study well, ba.” Lin Da Zhuang said.

“Understood, Dad. I will definitely study well.”

The crown prince had gifted him many good quality essentials of calligraphy and scholarship*, and also a lot of useful books. Lin Jia Wen vowed that he must pass the provincial level imperial examination. For his family, and for Jia Bao, he must prepare well for the triennial provincial imperial exam.

[*T/N: The essentials of calligraphy and scholarship are brush, ink, paper, and ink stone. These four things are known as the Four Treasures of the Study.]

In the following days, Lin Jia Wen worked ever harder at studying and reviewing the exam materials. It was to the point that he even neglected to eat and sleep. His teaching of Lin Jia Cai also got stricter. Wu-shi, his wife, would occasionally persuade him to pay attention to his health. She thought that the talents her husband met in the capital must have stimulated him.

In October, Wu-shi safely gave birth to a baby boy. The Lin family was very happy, and then Zhang Hui Niang became very busy with her daughter-in-law’s one-month confinement* and taking care of her little grandson.

[*T/N: one-month confinement – it is a practice that some people in the modern day still practice. The Chinese believe that the mother’s body is very susceptible after birth, so she must stay indoors for one month to recuperate. She should not be exposed to outside elements (like the wind and rain) and she can’t even wash her hair or bathe (because cold water is believed to be bad for the body’s health). The part about not bathing probably persisted from ancient times when it was hard for the common populace to be able to bathe with hot water. Modern people mostly ignore this part of the one-month confinement.]

As for Lin Da Zhuang, he was busy with the autumn harvest. He thought he should wait for a while longer, wait for his grandson to become one-month old, before telling Zhang Hui Niang about Jia Bao.

Xuan Yuan Han Cheng soon got the news that Lin Jia Wen’s wife gave birth to a baby boy. If he told his darling this good news, his darling would definitely be very happy.

Back then, not all of the cavalry that escorted Lin Da Zhuan and company back home had returned to the capital. Xuan Yuan Han Cheng had ordered two people to stay behind in Xu Province specifically for gathering news and reporting them to him.

Translations by Vanilla Muse.

Lin Jia Bao was really happy when he got the news, and then he remembered that Xuan Yuan Han Cheng had said that he could send things back home, so he chose a few things from all numerous rewards conferred to him.

Every time Lin Jia Bao and Xuan Yuan Han Cheng went to pay respects to the empress, he would receive some rewards. Everyone knew that he was the crown prince’s current favorite. Sometimes when he met other imperial concubines within Yong Shou Palace, he would also receive rewards. In addition, ever since Xuan Yuan Han Cheng got Lin Jia Bao, he would often gather a lot of good things for him. The men under the crown prince also knew of the existence of a xiaoshi who held a big piece of the crown prince’s heart and they would also present gifts as a sign of filial respect.

Lin Jia Bao fiddled with a jade pendant carved in the shape of a pony. This year was the year of the horse, so Lin Jia Bao had a lot of horse-themed pendants and decorations in his possession.

When Xuan Yuan Han Cheng came in, Lin Jia Bao was swaying among a table of jade pendants, not knowing which one to choose.

Xuan Yuan Han Cheng hugged Lin Jia Bao from behind and asked, “Have you chosen yet?”

“Husband, do you think this jade pendant is good? There is a pattern of a galloping pony on it. It just so happens that my little nephew is born in the year of the horse.” Lin Jia Bao picked up one of the pendants and showed it to Xuan Yuan Han Cheng.

“En, it’s good. I remember there is a small decoration of a colored glass horse. That is also not bad.” Xuan Yuan Han Cheng remembered that it was one of the gifts that his men had presented. He thought it was not bad and gave it to Lin Jia Bao.

“That, ah… that was given to me by Husband. I think… I think I want to keep it…” Lin Jia Bao said with reluctance.

He liked that colored glass pony very much. Lin Jia Bao didn’t have much in the way of toys ever since he was a child. It was only after he became Xuan Yuan Han Cheng’s xiaoshi that Xuan Yuan Han Cheng would often give him these interesting playthings. Lin Jia Bao liked it very much and he cherished it very much. He would be very careful whenever he handled it.

“My dear treasure… my darling…” When Xuan Yuan Han Cheng heard this, he kissed Jia Bao hard. “Tomorrow, have Yuan Qing go to Qiu-momo to get the key to the inner warehouse. You can pick something good from there. You can’t be stingy with the present you give to your little nephew.”

Lin Jia Bao shook his head, “No need, I have a lot of rewards that are great, there’s no need to go to the warehouse to pick one.”

Lin Jia Bao was embarrassed to go to his husband’s warehouse to pick out a gift for his little nephew’s one-month celebration. When he thought about it, he felt that it was still better to use one of his rewards as a gift.

Xuan Yuan Han Cheng understood what Lin Jia Bao was thinking and smiled without saying anything. Xuan Yuan Han Cheng thought that his darling was still young. In the future he wanted to bestow his baby with the title of cejun*. In this way, the management of the East Palace can be passed into Jia Bao’s hands justifiably.

[*T/N: 侧君 ce jun – most likely a made up title since there were no male concubines in the imperial harem in ancient times. Individually the words mean “side” and “lord.” I’m not certain what is the equivalent for a female concubine, but anything with 君 jun in the title is usually a very well-respected position.]

“Husband, will the things I send arrive in time for my little nephew’s one-month celebration?” Lin Jia Bao looked at Xuan Yuan Han Cheng expectantly.

“Of course, baby. I guarantee that it will arrive in time for your little nephew’s one-month celebration.” Xuan Yuan Han Cheng promised.

He got news from Xu Province, and he knew the current situation of Lin Da Zhuang’s family. He appreciated their low-key and non-exaggerated way of handling things. But Lin Jia Bao was already his person. This was not a shameful thing. And he didn’t like to hide it.

So he would just take advantage of this opportunity and tell the whole of China during Lin Jia Wen’s child’s one-month celebration. Let the Lin family have a good reputation in Xu Province. After all, Lin Jia Bao would not be just a xiaoshi in the future. The Lin family should also adapt to their change in status earlier…

Chapter 15.8 – Bellflower in Full Bloom

Zhou Yun Sheng, who was far away in London, was stunned when he saw the phrase good morning, and then looked at the picture again. Xue Zi Xuan has been obsessed with planting flowers in the past two years and would often post photos of himself watering and weeding the plants on Weibo.

All of the plants in the greenhouse were Chinese bellflowers. Because of this, Zhou Yun Sheng thought that Xue Zi Xuan’s favorite flower was the bellflower, but he did the not expect that the reason was due to this flower language.

In a daze, Zhou Yun Sheng recalled that Xue Zi Xuan had given him a Chinese bellflower on Christmas Eve in the past. The girl selling flowers had said that the bellflower represented desperate love, but it also represented eternal love.

Translations are by vmnovels [dot] com, if you’re reading this anywhere else, then it was stolen.

Desperate and eternal. This kind of love was undoubtedly cruel. It seemed to herald that their feelings were doomed to tragedy from the beginning. But who does not crave happiness? Xue Zi Xuan wanted it, so why would Zhou Yun Sheng not [want happiness]?

Suddenly, Zhou Yun Sheng felt very uncomfortable. He realized that his reflex arc was too long. This pain and regret came two full years late.

He lay down on the bed and covered his head with a quilt. It was hard to breath. He wailed low. Unwittingly, he fell asleep with tears streaming down his cheeks. When he woke up the next day, he felt dizzy, and his body felt limp and painful from head to toe.

“Aw crud, I forgot to take off my clothes when I went to sleep. If I was at home, I would definitely get scolded.” While grumbling, Zhou Yun Sheng rolled out of bed. He found some cold medicine, took it, and then went to lie down on the sofa.

[T/N: I don’t understand how he got a cold from sleeping with his clothes on…]

In the afternoon, he woke up from his drowsiness. He practically did not even have the strength to move his fingers, his forehead was burning hot, and there was a buzzing in his ears.

Zhou Yun Sheng was having a fever. He needed to take medicine and get an injection quickly. But he did not have any antipyretic at home, and he did not have any friends that could take him to the hospital.

His mobile phone was place on the coffee table, but when he reached for it, he could not grab on to it no matter what. Zhou Yun Sheng tried several times, and finally ended up rolling off the sofa. He crawled to the side of the coffee table and finally retrieved the mobile phone.

Translations by Vanilla Muse.

By then, he was exhausted and his body was soaked in cold sweat. His fingers kept shaking as he tried to dial a number on the phone. He thought he was dialing the emergency number, but when he heard the deep and sweet voice coming from the other end of the line, he realized that in a daze, he had actually entered in a number that he knew by heart.

The phone call originated from London, England, which was not uncommon for Xue Zi Xuan, but the number was an unfamiliar one. Xue Zi Xuan inquired several times, but only heavy breathing came from the other end of the line.

Gradually, he seemed to realize something. His heart throbbed, and his originally calm tone became choked and urgent: “Is it Xiao Yu? Is it you? Speak. Please, Brother is begging you to say something!”

This humble appeal stabbed at Zhou Yun Sheng’s heart. When people got sick, they would feel particularly vulnerable, especially when they were far away in a foreign country with no one to attend to them. He endured and endured, but finally couldn’t hold back, and said with a low voice: “Brother, it’s me.”

“Xiao Yi, where are you? What’s wrong with you?” Xue Zi Xuan immediately noticed that the boy’s voice was abnormal, and hurriedly got up to dress.

“I’m sick.” As soon as he finished saying this, Zhou Yun Sheng wept endlessly, like a lost child that has found his family member, and he said coquettishly, “I have a fever, but there is no antipyretic at home. I have a headache, my ears are ringing, and I can’t move my limbs. I want to go to the hospital. Brother, can you take me to the hospital?”

His uncaring and strong disguise came crumbling down, revealing the fragility and fond attachment that he had buried deep within his heart. He has been reincarnated for several lifetimes. The only one who gave him warmth and protection, was also the only person who said he loved him, cared for him, and would never hurt him.

Xue Zi Xuan was overexcited and also worried. He quickly suppressed the split second of ecstasy that he felt. He did not dare to delay. As he opened the closet to look for clothes, he softly coaxed: “Xiao Yi, be good, Brother is coming to your side right away. Tell me your address. You are very ill and you must go to the hospital right away. But even at the fastest, Brother can only get there after nine hours. So I’m going to have someone send you to the hospital first. Do you have the strength to open the door?”

Zhou Yun Sheng gave him his address. Confused and muddleheaded, he said: “I don’t have anymore strength. I miss you, Brother. I want you to hug me and kiss me. I found someone to date. I wanted to start over. But that person is not as good as you. He’s not even half as good as you.”

Chapter 128.1 – To Shed All Pretenses

Five days later, the two elders of the Zhou family came to the Xu Manor again.

At first, Xu Wei Ye wondered if they were planning something. Coincidentally, Zhou Ling Long did not sleep for the past two days in order to look for the account book, causing her appearance to look very haggard, which deepened his suspicions, so he had Ling Zhi monitor Zhou Ling Long strictly in the coming days.

But not even two days later, he dismissed this conjecture, because Zhou Ling Long was very obedient afterwards, and stayed quietly within her room.

Ling Zhi figured that Zhou Ling Long probably couldn’t fall asleep at night because she was missing her father and mother. From outside the door, she could hear the sounds of Zhou Ling Long tossing and turning sleeplessly over and over again.

Translations are by vmnovels [dot] com, if you’re reading this anywhere else, then it was stolen.

Xu Wei Ye also thought that this was the reason, so he temporarily banished his suspicions of them. He thought that the two elders were here only because they missed Zhou Ling Long, and this time An Zi Ran and Fu Wu Tian were not present, so he agreed to let them meet without much thought.

This time, Xu Wei Ye did not allow them to talk in private.

The two elders also did not insist. They spoke with their daughter for half an incense stick of time before Xu Wei Ye separated them.

They left the Xu Manor with reluctance and returned home straightaway without making any pit stops. Guan Su and Shao Fei were already waiting for them inside.

“Are you really going to help us get Ling Long out of the Xu Manor, and make it so that he will never trouble us again?” Elder Zhou asked, still uneasy. This matter was very important. If it failed, Xu Wei Ye would definitely come make trouble for them, and at that time, the one who would suffer the most would definitely be Ling Long. Their daughter has already suffered enough.

Guan Su said: “We have already reached this point. What is there left for you to doubt? Since our wangye and wangfei have already promised the two of you, then it will definitely be done.”

Elder Zhou did not say anything more.

Then old woman Zhou hesitantly asked: “This gongzi, if, that is, if you get the account book, then A’Shan, he…”

[T/N: A’Shan is a nickname for Zhou Shan, who is their son and also Landlord Zhou.]

“My wife.” Elder Zhou said a word of warning.

Guan Su knew at a glance what they were worried about, and said truthfully: “Zhou Shan and Xu Wei Ye have done so many bad things. He can’t escape responsibility for this.”

Shao Fei suddenly tugged at his sleeve.

Guan Su replied with a look that told him to keep calm.

The expressions of the two elders couldn’t help but become gloomy. Although they had guessed that things would not end well for A’Shan, it was still their son whom they were personally sending off to death. It was hard to take for the both of them, but then they thought of Ling Long, who was still suffering inside the Xu Manor, and the two elders had to force themselves to harden their hearts.

A’Shan has already enjoyed blessings that shouldn’t have been his for so many years. He should be content.

After all, it was he who had personally sent Ling Long to Xu Wei Ye. He must take responsibility for the disgraceful things that he did back then. This was what he owed Ling Long.

“Ling Long said she has already found the account book.”

Guan Su and Shao Fei returned to the Xu Manor. At the door, they ran into Xu Wei Ye, who was about to leave the manor. The latter saw that their complexions were not good, but he only snorted once, and then hurried out.

Shao Fei made a rude gesture towards Xu Wei Ye’s back. “You only have a few days left to be happy. After two days, you won’t even be able cry even if you want to.”

“Don’t be stupid.” Guan Su dragged him inside.

The two went straight to the rooms of An Zi Ran and Fu Wu Tian. The latter two had been waiting for news for a while now. Guan Su and Shao Fei recounted all the information about the account book in detail.

A surprised expression bloomed across An Zi Ran’s face after listening to their findings.

“You said Xu Wei Ye hid the account book in Zhou Ling Long’s room?”

He did not expect Xu Wei Ye to be so bold.

Shao Fei grinned: “Exactly, I heard that he had put the account book into a box that he openly gave to Zhou Ling Long. The box was filled with new clothes that Xu Wei Ye had ordered to be made for her, but because Zhou Ling Long hated him, she never touched that box. Apparently there are several layers of dust on that box.”

Support the translator. Read this on vmnovels (dot) com

Zhou Ling Long was a stubborn and resolute girl. If she said she wouldn’t touch something then she really wouldn’t touch it. Likely, Xu Wei Ye had anticipated this point, and was therefore bold enough to put his things in there. This was not only brazen, but also very clever.

Zhou Ling Long was not able to find the account book before because she thought that it was impossible for Xu Wei Ye to put the account book in her room. This was a subconscious act, furthermore, Xu Wei Ye likely added to this misconception. The two may be husband and wife, but the number of times that they did married couple stuff was not much.

Xu Wei Ye disliked how she was motionless in bed, just like a corpse, so he would leave in the middle of the night after finishing up the accounts, and he seldom set foot into her room.

That night, Guan Su sneaked into Zhou Ling Long’s residence, and even retrieved the account book very smoothly without disturbing Zhou Ling Long. With the account book in hand, Xu Wei Ye would not be able to escape. Even though he couldn’t escape in the first place.

Chapter 61 – Do You Still Like Her?

On Friday night, Duan Shu Tong and Pei Ruo Wei arrived at the restaurant where the company had made a reservation.

During this period of time, the Spring and Autumn Hall’s business has exploded. Zhai Jun has a lot of money this time, so the restaurant he chose was one of the best in Shan Quan County.

The employees of the company have been working at the Spring and Autumn Hall for so long, but there were rarely times of such excitement. Everyone was super lively and energetic.

When Duan Shu Tong and Pei Ruo Wei arrived, most of the people were already there.

As soon as the two entered the private room, Zhai Jun raised a glass and shouted, “Come, come, come, everyone let’s toast our two MVPs!”

The others obeyed the order. The clanking and scrapping of chairs sounded as everyone stood up, making a big fanfare of the whole thing. Duan Shu Tong was not used to it. And contrary to what one might expect, Pei Ruo Wei was a little uncomfortable. She smiled shyly, picked up the glass of warm water that someone had poured for her, and alongside Duan Shu Tong, they returned the toast to everyone.

Translations are by vmnovels [dot] com, if you’re reading this anywhere else, then it was stolen.

When the two of them stood together – the man was handsome and the woman was beautiful – they looked like a well-matched couple.

Some female employees who were farther away gathered together and started gossiping in whispers.

“Director Duan is so handsome, he seems even more handsome today.”

“Yeah, yeah. When we’re at work, he’s always holed up in the laboratory, so it’s hard to see him. But I can finally feast my eyes on him today!”

“Designer Pei is also very beautiful. I have only seen her photos before, but I didn’t expect the real person to look even better than the photos.”

“I heard that she’s pregnant. I wonder if it’s Director Duan’s. Hehehe.”

“Don’t joke about stuff like that. I’m a very good judge of people. There is no ambiguous atmosphere between them. They should just be friends.”

Duan Shu Tong did not intend to drink too much, but he had something on his mind so he was bit awkward. When someone toasted him, he didn’t want to refuse, so he drank cup after cup.

Although there was a smile on his face, Pei Ruo Wei could see that he was not happy.

Taking advantage of the time when everyone was entertaining themselves, she approached Duan Shu Tong and asked with concern, “Is something wrong?”

Duan Shu Tong was already a little drunk. He looked over with hazy eyes and asked, “What about me?”

The young man was handsome. His flushed cheeks did not make him seem like a rascal, instead it looked unexpectedly cute. The gentleman who was usually bright and sunny now squinted his eyes slightly, like a lazy cat hiding his thoughts.

Pei Ruo Wei was amused by the unbidden thoughts that came to her mind. She shook her head. “It’s nothing.”

Having been with this person for so long, she has long seen that the current Young Master Duan didn’t have the slightest bit of male-female affection for her, so his current preoccupation was definitely not because of her.

She did not have a hobby of prying into other people’s private business. Since Duan Shu Tong did not want to talk, then she would not continue to ask.

Although Zhai Jun was not as perceptive as Pei Ruo Wei, he was still watching over Duan Shu Tong very carefully and prudently, so when he saw the young man leaning against a chair and drowning his sorrows in alcohol he sneaking leaned towards him and clinked their glasses together.

“Is this celebration banquet not to your liking, Young Master Duan?”

Duan Shu Tong smiled and shook his head, “The celebration banquet is very good.”

Perhaps it was because the alcohol had rushed to this head and he was feeling tipsy, or perhaps it was because it was the first time he felt such a queer feeling towards someone, but he urgently needed to find someone to talk to. Thus, he made an effort to keep his eyes opened. Clenching the glass tightly in his hand, he sighed deeply and opened his mouth, “If I want to do a project, but reason tells me that I shouldn’t do this project, that it’s not good for anyone if I were to proceed with it, should I still do it?”

Support the translator. Read this on vmnovels (dot) com

Zhai Jun was all muddleheaded when he heard this. The treasured prince of the Duan family could have such worries?

“Is it a lack of funds or a lack of talents?”

Duan Shu Tong was stunned for a moment. Then he laughed at himself, waved his hand, and didn’t talk anymore.

Why was he telling someone else about this? Cannot meant cannot. How could there be so many what ifs? What? Was his career not going well, or was it no good just being friends?

But thinking of the hug in the kitchen that night, Duan Shu Tong took another sip of liquor in depression.

That’s it. He was going to move out tomorrow!

When the celebration banquet ended, Duan Shu Tong was already dizzy from drinking so much. He leaned against the tabletop with sleep-heavy eyes.

If Pei Ruo Wei hadn’t stopped him, he would have drunk himself to unconsciousness long ago.

Zhai Jun was about to call a cab to take the two back to their places when the phone on the table rang. He looked at the screen and saw that the caller was “Uncle Xi.”

It wasn’t appropriate for him to pick it up, so he signaled to Pei Ruo Wei.

It was evident that Duan Shu Tong no longer had the capability to answer the phone, so she had no choice but to answer the call. “Mr. Xi.”

The person on the other end of the phone was obviously stunned.

“Miss Pei? Where is Duan Shu Tong?”

Chapter 70 – The Golden Lord Daddy’s Favor

Yang Chi laughed heartily. Even if those were just words of politeness, Yang Chi still couldn’t help feeling somewhat happy when a talent that he was managing got praised.

The brand director wasn’t lying though. There were no spoken words or narration in this advertisement, but Qiu Jin was so handsome that this advertisement had another meaning – a beautiful man staying at home to cook for you.

Modern people had a lot of stresses. Whether it was going to work or attending school, both were mentally and physically taxing. Who wouldn’t want to come home to a piping hot dinner?

Translations are by vmnovels [dot] com, if you’re reading this anywhere else, then it was stolen.

This gimmick alone was enough to entice female audiences to buy the product. Of course, male audiences were also possible. After all, beauty could be appreciated regardless of gender.

Even the CEO of Xinyi Group was very satisfied with the advertisement. He even said that he would continue to pay attention to Qiu Jin and alert him when there was an endorsement in the future.

Xinyi did not only sell instant noodles. Their mineral water and potato chips filled the shelves of nearly every supermarket. In order to become their brand spokesperson, Qiu Jin would have to be much more popular than he currently was.

Of course, the CEO of the Xinyi Group was only speaking lip service. Qiu Jin’s popularity was not high enough to nab this endorsement. Qiu Jin also understood this point, but it was still good that the other person appreciated his work.

Before they left, the brand director gave them a big gift box filled with all kinds of Xinyi brand foodstuff. Although they didn’t know whether Qiu Jin would eat the food or not, the etiquette must always be in place.

Translations by Vanilla Muse.

After Qiu Jin got into the nanny car, he gave the gift box to the assistant, and only kept two of the instant noodles for himself, intending to make it his dinner, but as soon as he went upstairs, he bumped into Ji Shenxiao.

Qiu Jin was the first to say hello: “Sorry, ah. Work ran late today, and I didn’t have time to cook. I was planning to make instant noodles. Shall I order takeout for you?”

Ji Shenxiao didn’t answer. His eyes fell on the instant noodles.

Why does he keep staring at the instant noodles? Ji Shenxiao shouldn’t be the type to eat instant noodles, right? Qiu Jin thought.

Qiu Jin struggled for a moment, then tried to ask: “Would you like some?”

Only then did Ji Shenxiao retracted his gaze and nodded neither too fast nor too slow.

This man was dressed in a suit and leather shoes with aristocratic mannerisms. It made the situation seem as if Qiu Jin was the one begging Ji Shenxiao to eat the instant noodles.

Qiu Jin: “…”

When is he going to change this lousy habit of his? If he wants something, can’t he just say it straightforwardly? Qiu Jin grumbled in his mind.

This instant noodle was a noodle cake with a ramen-like texture. Qiu Jin added prawns, ham meat, cabbage, poached eggs, and cheese slices in addition to the seasoning packet inside the instant noodles itself…

Qiu Jin never dieted. All the calories he consumed were left to be burned off during workouts. But he wasn’t too satisfied with his muscle tone. He only had a six-pack. Moreover, after he differentiated into an omega, he felt like he seemed to be weaker than before.

Qiu Jin had originally intended to eat both of the instant noodles, but out of nowhere popped out a wild Ji Shenxiao. So he could only add a few more ingredients. Consequently, he turned the instant noodles that were originally worth ten yuan to a dish that was worth fifty yuan. In short, it was super luxurious instant noodles.

After Qiu Jin finished cooking the instant noodles, he even plated it up very nicely, and took a picture for his Weibo: “Cooking instant noodles.”

This could also be counted as doing some advertising for the brand he just worked with.

Of course, he only took a picture of his own bowl of noodles. He was very prudent about not revealing any unnecessary personal information online.

Unexpectedly, halfway through the meal, Ji Shenxiao suddenly received a call.

Gu Shuyi’s surprised voice came from the phone: “Son, are you with Qiu Jin?”

Ji Shenxiao glanced at Qiu Jin, got up and walked to the window: “How do you know?”

“I saw the photo he posted on Weibo, and the pattern of the marble on the table looks like yours,” Gu Shuyi said enviously, “But isn’t that bowl of instant noodles too sumptuous? I also want to eat it.”

Ji Shenxiao had thought that he was going to receive a scolding from his mother. He explained: “Overtime ended very late, I didn’t have time to cook.”

“Qiu Jin cooked for you?”

“En.”

“Why didn’t you tell me that he cooks for you?” Gu Shuyi’s tone of voice carried a hint of dissatisfaction. “If I hadn’t asked Li-jie*, you would still be keeping me in the dark.”

[*T/N: 姐 jie – older sister, not necessarily blood related]

Li-jie was the housekeeping auntie for Ji Shenxiao’s apartment building. She was the one bringing groceries to his place for the past few days.

For some reason, Ji Shenxiao didn’t want Gu Shuyi to interfere in this matter, and subconsciously said, “Mom, it’s just cooking, there’s nothing else between us.”

“Who cares what your relationship is!” Gu Shuyi got angry. “Do you still have a conscience? You have someone with such good cooking skills making food for you, but you don’t invite me, instead you’re hogging it to yourself!”

Ji Shenxiao: “?”

So this was her main point?

Chapter 120

“Xiao Shi, [please] believe in the captain. He didn’t know you have such an important and rare ability before. Otherwise, he would never have taken you to get your blood drawn.”

Seeing the other two people leave the building in a dead silence, the deputy team leader finally couldn’t help it anymore, and stopped in front of Su Shi. He took a deep breath and spoke sincerely.

“Don’t worry, even if Dr. He knows about your powers, we will never hand you over to him. With our captain here, even the top brass at the base would not dare to go head to head with our patrol team. We will definitely protect you. Isn’t that right, Captain?”

As he said this, he fiercely elbowed Yuan Zheng and indicated that he should immediately take advantage of the situation to explain properly.

Translations are by vmnovels [dot] com, if you’re reading this anywhere else, then it was stolen.

But Yuan Zheng was still unmoved like before. His eyes fell on Su Shi’s body. After a long silence, he raised his hand and helped the young man adjust his shirt collar, which was a little messy because of the previous fierce fighting. His tone became soft and gentle again.

“Are you injured anywhere? Did Dr. He do anything to you?”

Thanks to the deputy team leader’s friendly explanation, Su Shi finally understood what was going on. A complicated feeling of not knowing whether to laugh or cry arose in his chest. He coughed lightly once and lifted his head.

“I’m fine…”

Hearing Su Shi cough, Yuan Zheng took off his clothes and draped it lightly over him. But his gaze was arrested by Su Shi’s forehead.

Under the dim light outside the building, Yuan Zheng frowned slightly and raised his hand. He brushed aside the messy hair on Su Shi’s forehead and touched a blood mark on the corner of his forehead.

“Does it hurt?”

He must have accidentally bumped into the corner of some random table while he was pummeling Dr. Dark. Su Shi didn’t feel the injury at all. He met the other man’s apparently worried gaze, and at last his brows curved helplessly: “I’m really okay.”

Translations by Vanilla Muse.

Those delicate eyebrows of his finally smoothed out from their furrowed state, and it gave viewers a soft and warm feel.

Yuan Zheng’s hand trembled, his breathing suddenly stopped, and he stared at him blankly.

Su Shi sighed lightly and raised his head to meet the other’s gaze. The look in his eyes have completed thawed and mellowed out.

He really couldn’t understand how the protagonist’s brain worked. It was a bit dumbfounding, but the inexplicable warmth still appropriately soothed the depression and disappointment of another failure to carry the pot.

But that wasn’t too important. He still had opportunities to change the narrative. As long as he figured out what was wrong with the disguising glasses, he would surely be able to get the pot back.

There shouldn’t be a problem with keeping his Mu Shi identity sparkling clean.

Su Shi heaved a sigh of relief and raised his eyes to look at Yuan Zheng: “I’m tired, let’s go back.”

“Okay.”

Hearing these words from Su Shi, Yuan Zheng’s expression finally eased completely, and he agreed warmly. Just as he was about to tug on Su Shi’s arm, the alarm bell suddenly rang behind him.

The deputy team leader’s expression sank and he spoke quickly in a low voice. “Darn, that Dr. He must have contacted the guards. Quick, go!”

Yuan Zheng nodded. He didn’t have time to consider too many things. With a whispered apology, he picked Su Shi up into his arms.

With an abrupt burst of speed, they left the guards chasing them behind in the dust and quickly disappeared into the deep night.

Su Shi was a bit dumbfounded at being picked up so skillfully by Yuan Zheng. Before he could react, he was pressed against Yuan Zheng’s strong chest.

“Sorry, it will be faster this way.”

Yuan Zheng spoke with a warm voice. He used his clothes to cover up Su Shi, and then used his mental power to block the cold night wind for him.

Su Shi made a move to get out of Yuan Zheng’s arms and onto his own two feet, but the sound of gunfire behind them caused him to curl back up quietly against Yuan Zheng’s chest.

Yuan Zheng felt Su Shi faintly pressing against him and his gaze turned warm, but there was also a little sadness in there too.

Accustomed to running at such high speeds, Yuan Zheng and the deputy team leader soon threw off the soldiers chasing after them. But they still remained tacitly silent until they returned to the patrol team’s independent courtyard.

It was already very late, and all the members were sleeping soundly.

After they got back, the deputy team leader silently slinked off somewhere. This left Yuan Zheng to lead Su Shi, who was still wearing Yuan Zheng’s clothes, back to his room.

Both of them were a little exhausted. Su Shi pulled Yuan Zheng to the bed and had him sit. Then he took off his clothes, folded them neatly, and poured a glass of water for Yuan Zheng.

Yuan Zheng lifted his hands to receive the glass, but it was like he didn’t care what he was being handed at all. His gaze was only focused on Su Shi.

Seeing the uneasiness that had yet to dissipate from those eyes, Su Shi finally couldn’t help but soften up. He squatted down in front of Yuan Zheng and lifted his head to look at the other person. “I’m really fine, so don’t worry.”

Chapter 61 – Qin Family

Mrs. Qin wondered how could Qin Kai Xing have brought back so many things this time. When she saw the gift list sandwiched amongst the items, she was even more dumbfounded.

The gift list clearly indicated that top-quality biluochun* and a fine tea service was for Old Master Qin, a set of pearl head ornaments was for Mrs. Qin, and a delicate ruby beaded hairpin was for Lin Jin Er. Even the three little children had designated gifts.

[*T/N: biluochun a.k.a. pi lo chun is a type of green tea grown in the Dongting Mountain region near Lake Tai in Jiangsu.]

Qin Zi Cong received a transparent jade pendant. The dragon and phoenix twins received longevity locks of gold inlaid with jade*. There were also some tonics such as ginseng and bird’s nest.

[*T/N: longevity locks – ornaments in the shape of a lock that is supposed to represent long life]

The prices of these things were not low, and they could not be bought without thousands of taels of silver.

The gifts were also tailored to the receiver. Old Master Qin was someone who loved tea. The top-quality biluochun was a tribute tea, and it could not be bought with mere money. How could Qin Kai Xing get such a good product? Old Master Qin wondered about this with suspicion. He knew how many silver taels his son had brought with him to Beijing, and even if the goods he brought along had sold well, it was still far from enough to afford these gifts.

Translations are by vmnovels [dot] com, if you’re reading this anywhere else, then it was stolen.

“That’s right, ah. Son, which noble person gave [us] these gifts?” Mrs. Qin was also very curious. She had once attended a gathering hosted by the prefectural magistrate’s wife, and she had seen that the pearls worn by the prefectural magistrate’s wife were not as big and round as hers.

Qin Kai Xing first dismissed the servant girl that was serving tea. Then he slightly lowered his voice and said, “These are all gifts from His Royal Highness…”

Old Master Qin, Mrs. Qin, and Lin Jin Er were all surprised when they heard that.

“His Royal Highness… how come you have a relationship with His Royal Highness?”

“It’s all because of Jia Bao,” Qin Kai Xing said softly.

“Jia Bao! What happened to Jia Bao?” Lin Jin Er asked nervously.

“Jia Bao is now the crown prince’s xiaoshi. His Royal Highness is very affectionate with Jia Bao. He not only sent meeting gifts, he also sent a small team of cavalry to escort us back. Father-in-law didn’t want to be too ostentatious, so he only had them escort us up to Xu Province.”

Lin Jin Er was shocked to hear that her younger brother had became the crown prince’s xiaoshi, she was not happy like her mother-in-law. Instead, she was deeply worried at heart.

Qin Kai Xing spoke about his experience in Beijing, and then he took out the Qi family’s name card and gave it to Old Master Qin.

Holding on to that name card, Old Master Qin was extremely excited.

“This is really a great opportunity…”

“Father-in-law said that he hopes we won’t disclose anything before the provincial capital makes the announcement.”

“Yes, our in-law is quite right. We must be strict about restraining the tongues of all the servants who followed along this time.” Old Master Qin nodded in agreement and instructed.

“All the shop assistants and servants who went along this time are all family. I will restrain them well.” Qin Kai Xing said.

That night, Lin Jin Er tossed and turned restlessly in bed. In the end, she couldn’t help it and gave her husband, Qin Kai Xing, a little push.

“Husband, Jia Bao, is he really doing well?”

“Jia Bao is really doing well. His Royal Highness likes him very much! Don’t worry too much. When I have the opportunity to go to the capital again in the future, I will bring you to see him.” Qin Kai Xing said comfortingly to his wife.

Lin Jin Er kep asking about Jia Bao’s situation as soon as they returned to their bedroom, but after receiving Qin Kai Xing’s repeated assurance, she still did not feel relieved.

Lin Jia Bao’s entry into the palace had hit her hard. Lin Jin Er had originally planned to have Jia Bao also marry into the Qin household as a companion when he was older.

She knew Lin Jia Bao’s temperament the best. He was so well behaved and sensible. Compared to becoming someone else’s concubine or dying alone [it was better for him to marry into the Qin family].

As the eldest sister in the family, Lin Jin Er would naturally protect her younger brother. The people in the Qin family were easy to get along with, and their family background was also quite superior.

She has now given birth to two sons and one daughter, so she had a firm foothold in the Qin family. In the future, she would conceive a few more children. If her brother married into the Qin family, regardless of whether or not he gave birth to any children in the future, her children would also be filial to him. That way, Jia Bao would not be helpless in the future.

Translations by Vanilla Muse.

Lin Jin Er had already thought through everything, but before she could discuss things over with Zhang Hui Niang, Jia Bao entered the palace. And now, he has even become the crown prince’s xiaoshi. The imperial family wasn’t some ordinary family, ah. That harem must have a lot of invisible swords and shadows…

Lin Jin Er heard from Qin Kai Xing that her father hadn’t talked to her mother about Jia Bao yet. How sad would her mother be when she found out? She’s always treasured Jia Bao the most, alas…

Mrs. Qin was also talking to Old Master Qin about Lin Jia Bao, “This time, the Lin family is really incredible, ah… In the future, at the worst, Jia Bao will still be nobility.”

Old Master Qin laughed and said, “I think it will be more than that. Kai Xing said that His Royal Highness dotes on Jia Bao very much! This time, due to our in-law relationship with the Lin family, our Qin family will also benefit greatly, ah. And then in the future we will also cooperate with the Qi family, we would be the first in the county, no… in the entire Xu Province!”

“Wow… this is all thanks to husband choosing good in-laws.”

Mrs. Qin was completely convinced about Lin Jin Er’s foretold fortune from back then*. She was thinking to herself what a good daughter-in-law Lin Jin Er was. She really helped their Qin family prosper.

[*T/N: If you recall, potential marriage partners get their fortune told to see if they’re compatible with each other. And the fortuneteller had said that Lin Jin Er’s marriage into the Qin family would benefit the Qin family greatly. Mrs. Qin originally had some reservations because of Lin Jin Er’s poor background until she heard this fortune telling. It was Old Master Qin who pushed for the marriage, because he wanted to repay the Lin family for their help and he thought that Lin Jin Er was a good person.]

Chapter 127.3 – Finally?

Xu Wei Ye held back a belly full of anger. He watched the two Zhou elders leave, and as soon as they were gone, he went directly to Zhou Ling Long’s room. Without beating around the bush, he said: “Did you tell your father and mother anything that should not be said?”

Because the door to the room was closed and they were speaking with sign language, the servant girl Ling Zhi did not know what they were saying.

Zhou Ling Long lowered her delicate and graceful head.

She could lip read, so she didn’t need Ling Zhi to interpret.

Xu Wei Ye walked over, pinched her forcefully by the chin, and forced her to raise her head. In a cold voice, he said: “Zhou Ling Long, you should remember what I told you before. If you dare to say something that shouldn’t be said to other people, then don’t blame me for being cruel. You don’t want to see your father and mother get into any accidents, right?”

Translations are by vmnovels [dot] com, if you’re reading this anywhere else, then it was stolen.

Hatred immediately flashed through Zhou Ling Long’s eyes, but she was also helpless to do anything. She had agreed to marry Xu Wei Ye because he had threatened her with the safety of her parents. This was the reason why she had played her role for the past six years.

“Ling Long, in fact, I don’t want to hurt you either. As long as you are obedient, I can guarantee not to touch your father and mother. Furthermore, I’ll provide them with food and clothing, and not treat them shabbily.” Xu Wei Ye suddenly softened his voice.

If it was before, Zhou Ling Long might still believe him.

But ever since talking to her parents, she knew that Xu Wei Ye’s words were just meant to coax her into obedience. She would no longer believe his words anymore.

Zhou Ling Long was silent for a while. Then she made a few hand gestures.

Xu Wei Ye looked at Ling Zhi.

Ling Zhi interpreted: “Master, she said that as long as you keep your promise, she won’t tell them.”

Xu Wei Ye nodded in satisfaction, “Don’t worry, I will abide by my promise.” His avaricious gaze lingered on Zhou Ling Long’s pretty face, but then his brows immediately furrowed as he thought of something. She was beautiful indeed, but it was unfortunate that she was a dead-eyed fish in bed, thus, any interest he had disappeared.

After Xu Wei Ye left, Ling Zhi and the other servants also excused themselves, leaving Zhou Ling Long alone in her room.

Zhou Ling Long stood up all of a sudden. There was determination in her clear eyes. She lied to Xu Wei Ye. In fact, she had already told her parents everything, especially about the account book. The reason that Xu Wei Ye came to her courtyard every month was precisely because of the account book.

At first, Zhou Ling Long didn’t know anything, because Xu Wei Ye would have Ling Zhi and them feed her a kind of water that made her lose her consciousness every time he came. One day, she suspected that there might be something wrong with the water, so she secretly poured out the water when Ling Zhi’s back was turned.

Only then did she find out that Xu Wei Ye was using her place to do the accounts, while making others mistakenly believe that he was staying with her for the night. Xu Wei Ye found out later, but she knew that the account book was hidden somewhere in her courtyard.

At night, while everyone was asleep, Zhou Ling Long got out of bed to look for the account book.

The first night was not fruitful. Due to her lack of sleep, her complexion was not good, but her servants did not pay it much mind. They only thought that she was too excited to sleep because she had just met her parents yesterday.

The next several nights were the same, and her complexion got worse and finally dark circles ringed her eyes, drawing the servants’ attention. Fearing that they would find out what she was doing, Zhou Ling Long did not dare to leave the room that night. She knew that Ling Zhi and the others must be watching her in secret.

She might be born with certain defects, but she was not stupid.

However, despite not leaving the room, Zhou Ling Long still could not sleep. She lied on the bed tossing and turning. She couldn’t figure it out. She had already searched every place where a person could hide things, but she still couldn’t find the account book.

She has lived in this courtyard for six years. She had never stepped out of this courtyard, but precisely because she was alone in here, she would sometimes walk around the courtyard in boredom. She did not dare to say that she was familiar with every brick and tile in this courtyard, but she was definitely more familiar with this place than Ling Zhi and the other servants.

Where is it?

She had searched inside and out… her thoughts suddenly screeched to a halt.

Zhou Ling Long sat up abruptly in bed. Her eyes widened.

She thought of a place that she had never searched through, not because she didn’t want to, but she had subconsciously thought that it was impossible, so she never thought about it.

And that place was…

Chapter 4 – Kissing

The so-called black market was a place where there were a lot of gray transactions such as pornography, human trafficking, rare animal auctions, etc. And it was full of various unknown dangers.

An Ji was an omega. Moreover, he had drunk a glass of spiked alcohol earlier. So he didn’t dare to stay any longer. He quickly transferred a sum of money to Black Cat and asked the other person to bring him away from here.

Outside the bar was a brightly lit underground city, with neon lights filling the entire sky. As soon as An Ji came out, he was blinded by a billboard.

The signboard said “Omega Simulation Experience Hall,” and off to the side was a risqué picture of a penis.

The “Alien Animal Experience Hall” offered phalluses of all shapes, such as dragon, leopard, tentacles, etc…

The shocked expression on An Ji’s face was perhaps too extreme. Black Cat looked at him and said obsequiously, “Baba, do you want to go in and have a look?”

An Ji: “…”

What gave you the misconception that I want to go in and take a look?

The men smoking under the billboard felt them staring in their direction and whistled: “Hey little cutie, do you want to come over and play? Since you’re so handsome, how about I give it to you for free?”

Translations are by vmnovels [dot] com, if you’re reading this anywhere else, then it was stolen.

“Bah! You shameless vagrants,” Black Cat scolded, “Why don’t you take a good look at yourselves? You have some nerve, aiming for my Baba!”

The men laughed. Instead of getting angry, they just turned around and chatted up another passer-by.

An Ji breathed a sigh of relief and continued to move forward despite the discomfort of his body.

“Are you all right?” Black Cat could already feel the heat coming off of An Ji’s body. The worst part was the scent of roses. When the intangible wisps of fragrant roses entered one’s nostrils, it caused nearly unbearable spikes of arousal.

An Ji was a little dizzy, but he knew that he could not fall down here.

In his previous life, his pheromones leaked here. While in a state of distress, it was Yu Jingmo who had rescued him. In this lifetime, he definitely did not want to meet that person again.

“I’m still okay. Let’s leave now.” An Ji replied briefly, but just as he finished speaking someone blocked his path.

Opposite him stood a sturdy blonde young man, and beside him were a few of the young man’s henchmen with vulgar looks in their eyes.

This was Hans, the star thief leader. He was the smuggler that An Ji had an arrangement with, and also the scum who spiked his drink with inducers at the bar.

“It’s dangerous for you to be out by yourself, why don’t you follow us back…?” Hans looked An Ji up and down. His gaze was lewd and vulgar.

An Ji grabbed Black Cat, turned, and ran. They escaped faster than a mouse.

Hans: “…”

F*ck, he didn’t even get to finish talking!

His henchmen didn’t expect An Ji to run away so fast. They looked at each other uncertainly. “Big… Big Bro, that omega is gone.”

“Do I need you idiots to point that out?!”

“Then what should we do now?”

“Chase after them!” Hans waved his hand, and his henchmen rushed out instantly.

At the entrance to the bar, a punk with purple dyed hair was bragging to the woman next to him: “What do you think? My ride is pretty good, right? The engine is so sexy… hey, what the f*ck?!”

An Ji pushed the punk away and mounted the motorcycle. He turned to Black Cat and shouted, “Get on!”

Black Cat hopped on the motorcycle immediately and wrapped his arms securely around An Ji’s waist.

“Hey, what the f*ck are you doing?!” The punk had a look of bewilderment on his face. “This is my new ride! It cost fifty thousand star coins!”

“I’m buying it!” An Ji raised his right hand, and the sound of money transferring between accounts rang out along with the roar of the motorcycle engine.

The punk opened his account and saw that – my god – there was an extra one hundred thousand star coins in it.

“Thanks, bro!” The punk immediately changed his tune. With a smile, he sent air kisses to An Ji. “Come to me next time you need to buy a vehicle~!”

Vroom-

His answer was the sound of an engine roaring to life.

The rumbling engine of the motorcycle filled the entire street. The steel beast sped down the narrow street and soon disappeared from sight.

Unfortunately, under the influence of the inducer, Anj Ji’s body quickly became weak and he was unable to concentrate, so he had to park the vehicle in an unobstructed alley.

Enduring the discomfort of his body, he instructed Black Cat: “Help me buy an inhibitor.”

“No problem!”
