Chapter 268: One Look to Suppress the Mental Riot
Everyone's burning gazes were focused on Jiang Wangyue, making her scalp tingle.
She subconsciously grabbed Ji Li and Yun Miao's arms and stepped back carefully.
However, those gazes followed her like a shadow, always sticking to her.
Yun Miao immediately glanced at them coldly, and most people looked away awkwardly at his fierce look.
But there were still people who were not afraid of Yun Miao and continued to stare at Jiang Wangyue. One of them even walked out of the crowd and strode towards her.
"Miss Jiang, I wonder if I could have the honor to invite you to have a private chat?"
The young man was tall and handsome, with a very eye-catching long, carefully groomed silver hair and a very confident smile on his face.
However, Jiang Wangyue only glanced at it and then looked away. No matter how much she liked Baimao, there were already two of them at home, so how could it be his turn?
etc.
Why two?
Just as Jiang Wangyue fell into deep self-doubt, the other party spoke again: "Miss Jiang, my name is Qiaosen Snata, the only heir of the Snata family."
"Snata?" Jiang Wangyue suddenly exclaimed, "This name sounds familiar..."
Without waiting for the other party to show any joy, she continued to speak on her own: "I remember there was a person who, after failing in a legitimate competition with Feng Yan, was sent to the Supervisory Bureau for making trouble behind the scenes. That person seemed to be called Snata. Could he be from your family?"
The training ground had already fallen silent because of this man's behavior. Now everyone happened to hear Jiang Wangyue's words clearly, and some people couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Johnson Snata's face suddenly turned cold, and he looked in the direction where the laughter came from with a vicious look.
As a result, the red-haired male orc was not afraid of him. Instead, he smiled and raised his hand to indicate that he was the one who was laughing.
The lieutenant general overseeing the competition training frowned and called Qiao Sen back, "Stop watching! Who's the next group?"
As soon as the lieutenant general finished speaking, the person who had laughed just now walked out.
And his opponent... is Qiao Sen.
Jiang Wangyue looked at the two people who appeared in the center of the training ground and couldn't help but exclaim in his heart.
Enemies often meet on a narrow road.
"Make way, make way."
Hearing the voice behind her, Jiang Wangyue had no time to turn around before Nora and Tasia and others squeezed next to her.
"How far have we progressed? Let me see... Hey? Why does that person look so familiar?"
After Noila finished speaking, she squinted her eyes and looked carefully, then slapped her thigh, "Oh my god! Why is it him?!"
Jiang Wangyue looked at Noila Mo curiously, “Do you know her?”
"Hey, that red-haired one, he's from my family."
Jiang Wangyue suddenly showed an expression of sudden realization, "As expected, people of the same family are alike. You guys are really just following your husband's lead, watching the fun without thinking it's too big a deal."
"What's the excitement?"
Jiang Wangyue did not correct her diverted focus. Under the curious gaze of Tasia and the others, he briefly recounted what had just happened.
After listening to her, it was Central Star native Tasia who spoke out before Nora. She sneered and said, "An heir of the Snata family dares to come here and get in your way. You must be tired of living."
Nora tugged at Jiang Wangyue's arm and asked her to follow Tasia's example.
"What are you learning?"
"Imitate her majestic and domineering manner."
"...Go away."
While they were talking, the battle on the training ground had already been decided.
The red-haired male orc rolled over and landed on the ground neatly, with a mocking smile on his face.
It seems to be saying - just you?
Qiao Sen was so angry that he was shaking all over and staring at the other person with sinister eyes.
Jiang Wangyue's eyes suddenly focused, something was wrong!
Before the violent mental power could wreak havoc in the training ground, it was effortlessly suppressed by another powerful mental power.
It happened in just a moment, and it was over before most people could even react.
Looking at Qiao Sen who had fainted on the scene, everyone turned their eyes to Jiang Wangyue.
The news that a male orc suddenly lost control of his mental power during confrontation training spread like wildfire within the military, accompanied by the shocking rumor that a female orc suppressed him in an instant.
According to the soldiers present, the female didn't even make any movement, but with just a glance, she easily stopped the male orc from going into a mental frenzy.
Jiang Wangyue, the person involved in the rumor, was filled with questions after hearing the news.
She remembered that she took a step forward at that time, so how come it became just a glance?
You guys don't spread lies like this, do you?
Noila Mo laughed so hard that she fell backwards. Jiang Wangyue looked at her speechlessly.
It's not easy to have such a low sense of humor.
"If you laugh again, you won't be able to eat anything."
Jiang Wangyue's threat was very effective. Noila Mo immediately made a chain-pulling gesture on her mouth, signaling herself to shut up.
Tasia, who was mixing drinks nearby, shook her head and laughed, "You're both a slacker and a playful person. I'm talking about you."
Nora showed an expression of dissatisfaction, but when she turned around, Xia Ya stuffed a handful of vegetables into her hands and told her to hurry up and work.
They had agreed a long time ago to have another meal cooked by Jiang Wangyue, but they didn't expect that this agreement would not be fulfilled until today.
Ming Jiao handed the plate to Jiang Wangyue and said with a smile, "There's something I almost forgot to tell you. Xu Liu and I are also planning to stay on the Central Star."
Several people immediately looked at her with surprise.
"Really?! That's great!!"
"Have you bought the house? Where is it? When can you invite us over for dinner?"
Facing his excited friends, Ming Jiao smiled faintly and said softly, "Xu Liu has already bought it. It's in District 6. He also volunteers at the welfare home. He said that if he lives in District 6, it will be more convenient for him to visit the children in the future."
Ming Jiao paused, then continued, "If you have time, how about coming to our housewarming party in three days?"
“Yay!!”
Jiang Wangyue held Mingjiao's arm and gave her a sly smile: "I will prepare a special housewarming gift for you."
"How special?"
"I won't tell you, you'll know when the time comes."
The few of them were laughing and joking, and they were all very relaxed. It was hard to tell that they were troubled by post-war syndrome on the way back.
Jiang Wangyue noticed something because she found that after Tasia calmed down, she would stare out the window from time to time.
Looking back at Nora, who was talking nonsense with her arm around Xia Ya's shoulder after drinking a few sips of wine, Jiang Wangyue walked to Tasia who was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window.
"What are you thinking about?" she asked softly.
Tasia came to her senses and shook her head hesitantly.
"Haven't you recovered from the war yet?"
“…I guess so.”
Jiang Wangyue stroked the wine glass in his hand, his voice gentle but powerful: "We are protecting our own homeland, so don't put too much psychological pressure on yourself."
