Chapter 22 The slap mark made it seem like I was bullying him

When Adrian came down from upstairs, everyone who had already arrived in the hall on the first floor stood up from the sofa and saluted him as usual.

Zheng Lianchuan and Cui Jue had good eyesight and saw the light red slap mark on the chief's face from a distance.

I was sweating coldly on my back.

The two of them quickly looked away, one looking to the left and the other looking to the right in tacit understanding.

The others were even more cautious and didn't dare to look at Adrian's face at all.

Adrian rarely responded to these people's greetings.

Although he is usually casual and uninhibited, he rarely neglects his companions.

Some people might think that it is because of his status as the young master of the Fenrir family that he is so free and unrestrained.

But there is only one real reason.

That is, Adrian's strength is strong enough to shut up all those who dislike him.

In the past, the Fenrir family was not significantly different from the other ruling families of the Six Towers.

It was from the generation of Adrian's grandmother that the group grew rapidly in power.

Until the birth of Adrian, the most gifted psychic in the human world, the Fenrir family was unstoppable and had no problems on the polluted battlefield.

He is a reliable leader in the eyes of everyone, the true leader of the younger generation of the Fenrir family, and is destined to inherit the position of head of the Fenrir family in the future.

Omnipotent, masterful, and unfathomable.

At the same time, we attach great importance to partners.

Adrian rarely recognized others, but those who received his recognition were equivalent to receiving the promise of the Fenrir family.

Promise you power, promise you status, promise you to sacrifice your life as a member of Fenrir for the glorious cause of defending the Source Ancient Tower and the Cloud Cliff Tower.

......Therefore, the fact that he ignored everyone's greetings was already a sign of his extremely bad mood.

Adrien walked over to the middle sofa and sat down without saying a word.

No one dared to speak.

He waited until Adrian sat down before he followed suit.

The waiter quietly handed over the tray at the right time, and prepared several of Adrien's favorite cocktails.

Adrian picked up the wine glass, as if he was thirsty, and silently raised his head to drink it all. His Adam's apple rolled, and only the crystal clear ice ball was left rolling in the glass.

He drank a few more glasses of wine in a restless mood, then leaned his head back against the sofa, staring at the ceiling, not knowing what he was thinking.

In terms of physical strength, perception, reaction, endurance and all other physical strength indicators that humans can think of, Adrian is almost at the top level and has no weaknesses.

It also breaks down alcohol very quickly, so it's not easy to get drunk. Drinking a few glasses of wine is like drinking water.

Cui Jue saw a tooth mark on the side of Adrian's neck.

A row of delicate curves.

For ordinary people, this part of the neck is a weak point and a very dangerous position in combat.

But the tooth mark was too small and had become shallow and faint, and it had more of an ambiguous meaning than an attack or bite.

If Cui Jue didn’t have good eyesight, he would probably have overlooked it.

Cui Jue's pupils trembled, and he signaled Zheng Lianchuan with a frightened look, but he didn't dare to move too much for fear of being discovered by the chief.

Zheng Lianchuan, a veteran in the love field, had noticed it a long time ago. He wore a mask-like smile with ambiguous meaning on his face and ignored Cui Jue.

Cui Jue: No, what’s going on? Can someone explain it to me?

*

Lancelot, who was asked to check the surveillance, also fell silent at this moment.

In the surveillance video, Master Adrian's spirit body, Black Wolf, insisted on biting Yun Fuyu's wrist and dragging him into Adrian's training cabin, refusing to let him go.

It was obvious that Adrian didn't remember, otherwise he wouldn't have asked Lancelot to "find out".

It's already obvious.

No matter how you look at it, it was Adrian who took the initiative.

Yun Fuyu didn't come out of the training cabin until the next day, staggering.

If we don't pursue the matter, considering the young master's gloomy expression and the slap mark on his face, we can't just pretend that it never happened.

If we investigate... Lancelot looked at Yun Fuyu holding on to the wall and struggling to move forward, and always felt that he was bullying the weak.

Whether to pursue the matter or not, it will be quite difficult to deal with.

Lancelot had a headache.

*

In fact, even if Adrian didn't check the surveillance, he would have realized what had happened by now.

Adrian's mental power level is too high, which causes the black wolf, a spirit of the same SSS level, to have his own ideas.

This is an advantage in combat.

But it is not so convenient at other times. Black Wolf sometimes escapes Adrian's control and acts on his own.

The door of the training cabin can only be opened if the mental power matches that of the person who made the reservation.

If Yun Fuyu was able to come in, it could only be the work of Heilang.

After realizing this, Adrian became even more annoyed.

He tapped his fingers unconsciously on the rim of the glass.

The feeling of just waking up still seemed to linger in the crook of my arm.

The furry head rested directly on the arm, and the black hair fell softly and smoothly on the snow-white neck.

It wasn't itchy, but felt like some warm little animal.

However, the marks behind the ears, on the exposed arms and other parts of the person in his arms were messy and crimson, and even the slightly lifted hem of his shirt was so dirty that it was unbearable to look at.

Everything reveals chaos and absurdity.

Adrian became even more upset and closed his eyes in annoyance, but as soon as he closed his eyes, these fragments resurfaced and he couldn't get rid of them.

There are also red and swollen eyes, and pinch marks on the thin white neck...

It seemed as if I was bullying him.

Adrien thought.

After drinking a few glasses of wine in silence, Adrian stood up and motioned Cui Jue to go to the battlefield with him, and Zheng Lianchuan also went with him.

Although the names of the three are listed among the top ten, Cui Jue and Zheng Lianchuan together cannot beat Adrian.

Zheng Lianchuan: "Alas."

An unexpected disaster.

Cui Jue didn't have any objection.

He is a typical battle maniac and especially likes to compete with people who are stronger than him.

Although he was beaten badly every time, the chief occasionally gave him advice and guidance, which was to the point and very helpful to Cui Jue.

Others can't do it.

After each training session, Cui Jue, with a bruised face, felt that he had become stronger.

But in the next training session, he will still be crushed by Adrian.

If fighting can solve the problem, then fight, we fight every day anyway.

*

Yun Fuyu wrapped herself in the quilt, feeling cold and having a fever.

The dream was very chaotic, with fragments of memories that did not belong to me flashing through the darkness.

Sometimes it is a first-person perspective, and I seem to be attached to a little child, sitting cross-legged properly.

He was very short and was struggling to reach out to grab something on the table.

The adult sitting opposite the table handed something to me. I could only see soft, hanging hair and a blurry face.

The pale yellow setting sun, the cool wooden floor, the soothing fragrance...

Sometimes it is from a third perspective, with Yun Fuyu's consciousness floating in the air.

A black-haired boy stood in the battle field with his back to him.

The three people on the opposite side rushed forward, stirring up dust. The young man rushed into the dust nimbly, his figure so fast that it was unclear.

After a few breaths, only the young man was left standing in the field.

The boy's black hair swayed in the air flow and he tilted his head slightly.

Before Yun Fuyu could see his face clearly, she was instantly pulled out of this memory.

Dark green eyes emerged from the darkness, and a ferocious beast stepped out from the shadows, biting him viciously and eating him starting from the wrist.

Tearing pain.

*

Adrian vented his anger for several rounds in the fighting arena, attacking with exceptional swiftness and ferocity.

Cui Jue and Zheng Lianchuan had been knocked out of bounds several times, one lying on the ground and the other just sitting up.

Adrien pushed his hair back.

His profile was a very standard straight face, with a forehead slightly tilted back, deep eyebrows and eyes, and a nose bridge with a sharp and elegant arc. He stood there with an aloof and cold expression.

There was a subtle irritation between his brows.

Adrian could clearly feel that he was in exceptionally good condition today.

The fatigue accumulated over the years in the depths of the spiritual realm and the redundant information hidden and piled up like waste were all swept away.

I feel refreshed and extremely relaxed, and my mental power is smoother when attacking.

This is a feeling I have never experienced before.

——It also means that Yun Fuyu may have given himself deep spiritual counseling, whether consciously or unconsciously.

And the guidance effect was so good that Adrian, who was in a period of mental agitation, did not resist Yun Fuyu's guidance at all.

This shows that the two are highly compatible.

Of course, the thought of this made Adrian even more irritated.

He sent a message to Lancelot.

“A: No need to check.”

The message is short and incoherent.

Lancelot was already accustomed to such brief instructions, and he understood the message quickly after receiving it.

This is what it means to not pursue the matter.

Generally speaking, in such cases, the nobles would give some compensation, provided that no illegitimate children were born.

But Adrian was not an ordinary nobleman, and he always disliked those nobles who had promiscuous affairs.

It's difficult.

*

"Knock, knock, knock."

There was a dull knock on the door, and Yun Fuyu was half asleep and half awake.

Reality seemed to continue the pain of being bitten by a wild beast, and there was a dull pain in the bones all over the body.

He buried his head in the quilt and didn't want to get up and open the door.

But the knocking sound continued regularly, no one opened the door, it stopped temporarily, and then started again after a while.

It seemed as if he was certain that Yun Fuyu would open the door for him.

Yun Fuyu was extremely annoyed and was completely woken up. She got up and went to open the door.

The moment I left the quilt, I shivered with cold.

Why is it so cold in the dormitory?

His thinking was slow and he didn't consider that it was because of his body temperature.

The door opened and Lancelot's gentle and handsome face appeared at the door.

He was always calm and composed, and there was nothing to fault with him from his hair to his bow tie.

The moment Yun Fuyu saw Lancelot, he turned around and tried to close the door.

Lancelot reached out and opened the door in time.

The two men were in a stalemate for a while. In the end, Yun Fuyu had no strength left and could not resist him, so she simply let go and let Lancelot open the door.

Lancelot looked at Yun Fuyu.

It was easy to notice that Yun Fuyu's cheeks and forehead were an unhealthy red.

His eyes were still a little red and swollen, and he looked listless.

Lancelot: "Are you having a fever?"

Yun Fuyu looked listless, her thin eyelids abnormally hot. "What's the matter?"
