Lin Chunhuan, as the ace strategist of the Quick Transmigration Bureau, is just one last reincarnation away from accumulating enough points to return to the real world.
But this final one... ...
But at this moment, Chu Xi leaned into his arms, not caring whether he was wet or not, and pressed her entire body against this man.
Under the double stimulation of the cold water vapor and the soft body, Chu Shaoting's breathing became more rapid.
It’s a pity that this night is destined to be a sleepless night.
"Young Marshal! Young Marshal, are you asleep?"
There was a hurried knock on the door from Wang Ma. Chu Shaoting groaned when he was interrupted. He suppressed the anger in his heart and opened the door. "Wang Ma, you better be in trouble!"
But Wang Ma in front of her didn't even bother to look at Chu Shaoting's angry eyes, "Young Marshal, something happened! Old lady, please go downstairs, I have to wake up the young mistress, please come down quickly!"
Seeing Aunt Wang hurriedly knocking on Lin Chunhuan's door again, Chu Shaoting was stunned for a moment and felt a little uneasy.
Aunt Wang is an elder in the family and rarely panics like this... It seems that something really happened!
"Shao Ting?"
Chu Xi had always thought that only if she really became Chu Shaoting's person could she truly get the protection of the Chu family. Now that the plan was finally on the right track, it was suddenly interrupted. Naturally, she was a little dissatisfied.
Of course, Chu Xi didn't show it on her face. She just held Chu Shaoting's arm with concern and said, "What happened? Aunt Wang seems to be in a panic."
"I don't know yet."
Chu Shaoting shook his head, turned around and went into the house to pick up his military jacket, "I'll go downstairs to see grandma first, sister, you can change your clothes and come down too."
As soon as he finished speaking, Chu Shaoting had already walked out of the room and faced Lin Chunhuan who was walking out in his coat.
The two looked at each other, and tacitly no one spoke, just walking downstairs.
The old lady was sitting on the sofa in the living room, holding a string of Buddhist beads in her hand, with her eyes closed tightly, muttering something, and only opened her eyes when she heard someone coming.
His gaze lingered on Chu Shaoting and the other two. "Shaoting, the Dongyi people are here. They landed at the ferry two hours ago and surrounded the Mingyue Society half an hour ago."
"The leader is called Sang Jun. They took Qin Song away."
Hearing these words, Lin Chunhuan's heart skipped a beat and she felt a dull pain in her heart. She knew that this world was not the place where she grew up, and even the name was different, but it had such a strikingly similar history.
It almost instantly evoked the bloodiness engraved in the bones of every Chinese.
She turned her head unconsciously and found that Chu Xi was also looking at her.
Such a complicated look made Lin Chunhuan speechless.
Although we don’t know what Chu Xi’s original world was like, it is not difficult to guess that perhaps similar things had happened in that place, and she also thought of something.
This situation made the fight between them seem a little childish for a moment.
"Those Dongyi people, what are they going to do?" Chu Shaoting said in a low voice. After hearing what the old lady said, he was not panicked. Instead, he sat on the sofa on the side after a moment of silence.
However, his constant action of picking up and putting down the water cup still revealed the unrest in his heart.
Chu Shaoting is definitely not a good man. Of course, this is Lin Chunhuan's own perspective. Emotionally, Chu Shaoting is wavering and has many girlfriends.
None of them meet her standards of a good man.
But no one can say that Chu Shaoting is an unqualified soldier or general.
"Hmph, your wolfish ambitions are obvious. Although the Demon City is not a battleground for military strategists, it has accumulated too much wealth. How could the Dongyi people give it up?"
"Their large forces can't break through our Chu Army's encirclement. They must have set their sights on the Mingyue Society. As long as Qin Song is willing to cooperate with the Dongyi people and attack from both inside and outside, the Magic City will be in danger!"
The old lady's words were by no means alarmist. Although the strength of the Mingyue Society was not enough to fight against the Chu family's regular army, it was not difficult to bite off a piece of meat from a tiger.
Chu Shaoting remained silent for a long time regarding this.
In the end, he shook his head firmly, "Qin Song won't."
"Although I don't know him well enough, but... Qin Song is a man of blood. He knows what to do and when to do it."
To this, the old lady did not comment, "What are your plans now?"
"Qin Song must be rescued. There are some things Qin Song won't do, but that doesn't mean everyone in Mingyue Club won't do them. Without Qin Song, Mingyue Club will be easily exploited. But how to rescue him needs to be carefully considered."
The old lady and Chu Shaoting talked a lot. Lin Chunhuan understood some of what they said, but not some of it. It was the first time she had experienced such an era.
Honestly, not much experience.
Chu Xi, on the contrary, seemed to be very experienced and came up with many ideas that could be put into use immediately. The old lady who always disliked her couldn't help but look at her a few more times with surprise in her eyes.
Chu Xi's attitude towards this was quite indifferent.
That night, Chu Shaoting did not stay at home. The night was still quiet, and the bright lights and nightlife on the streets still exuded the atmosphere of decadence and extravagance.
But Lin Chunhuan always felt that even the atmosphere in the air was a little tense, so oppressive that she couldn't breathe.
"Come, both of you sit down."
After Chu Shaoting left, the old lady didn't let them go. "When the nest is overturned, no eggs are left intact. You two are both educated, so you should understand this principle very well."
"If it were any other time, I wouldn't care how you guys argued or fought, but now."
The old lady's eyes were sharp. "I don't ask you to do anything, but if anyone dares to hold Shao Ting back at this time."
"Don't blame me, an old woman, for being rude!"
The old lady was supported by Wang Ma and left. She seemed to be very tired and had to rest. However, Lin Chunhuan knew very well that there were probably few people in the entire Demon City who could sleep peacefully that night.
"Lin Chunhuan."
Lin Chunhuan raised his head as Chu Xi's voice brought his thoughts back to reality.
It had been a long time since anyone had called her name.
"Stop it first, or I'll let you win." Chu Xi sniffed, with a smile on his face, "Don't look at me like that, I know I'm not a good person."
"But this time, I mean it."
It's true that she wasn't surprised. Chu Xi definitely knew how much it would cost to lose in the competition mode. She had always been so eager to win.
In order to ensure Chu Shaoting's undivided attention, he even harmed countless people.
Such a person would actually say to her, it’s okay to let you win.
Lin Chunhuan's lips moved, but he couldn't help asking, "Why?"
"You probably can't imagine that in my world, we didn't win." Chu Xi said in a flat tone.
But after hearing her words, Lin Chunhuan's heart was instantly filled with shock and her heart ached even more, but she just stared at Chu Xi blankly and couldn't say a word.
