Zhang Ling'er chuckled and said, "Tell me quickly..."
Her rosy cheeks puffed out slightly, and her adorable little face made her look like a rabbit with a red nose.
Jiang Jinyu, who has always been powerless against cute things, was quickly defeated by this adorable offensive and then voiced her worries.
After hearing this, Zhang Ling'er's eyes widened suddenly. Her big, bright eyes darted around, and after glancing at Feng Qitong, who was still smiling, she quickly looked away and looked at Jiang Jinyu, still somewhat shocked, and said, "You mean... he really is an extraterrestrial demon?"
Jiang Jinyu nodded helplessly, "It's absolutely true, but you mustn't tell anyone else."
"Okay, okay." Zhang Ling'er nodded, very happy.
Jiang Jinyu's words were tantamount to treating her as one of his own.
However, she then asked, "Besides me, who else knows?"
The reason she asked this question was as if she wanted to know how important she was to Jiang Jinyu.
Jiang Jinyu thought for a moment, counted on her fingers, and said seriously, "Xiao Muzi knows, Lu Shan knows, and Uncle Hei knows too..."
"So, everyone except me knew?" The little girl's face immediately fell.
“No,” Jiang Jinyu said seriously, “They all knew it on their own, but you are the first person I told this secret to.”
She understood perfectly what the little girl meant by those words, so she followed up by explaining, "Little girl, you are a very important person to me, the kind of person who is extremely important."
Upon hearing this, the little girl immediately beamed with joy and nodded with a bright smile. However, seeing Jiang Jinyu's worried expression, she also seemed a little unhappy.
After thinking for a moment, he said, "However, I think that's a grudge between the older generation. Besides, Feng Qitong may have a problematic background, but that doesn't mean we should deny everything about him."
At this point, Jiang Jinyu clearly took it to heart, and the light in her eyes brightened.
Seeing that his words had an effect, Zhang Ling'er pressed on, "Then let me ask you a question: Has his hand ever been stained with the blood of any living being in the world?"
Jiang Jinyu thought about it seriously for a moment, then solemnly shook his head. "Although I can't guarantee that he hasn't killed a single person since he first entered the Great Thousand World, I dare say that, at least as far as I know, his hands are not stained with the blood of any living being in the Great Thousand World."
“That’s enough, so, my dear sister, what are you still thinking about…” Zhang Ling’er shook Jiang Jinyu helplessly.
Jiang Jinyu seemed to realize something and then smiled, "Thank you, Ling'er..."
"Why are you being so polite with me... If you really want to thank me, then give me a hug, hehe..."
Even for Zhang Ling'er, who was also a beautiful woman, Jiang Jinyu's beauty was extremely attractive.
However, as soon as she finished speaking, she felt a gust of wind pass by and then she disappeared. By the time she realized what was happening, Jiang Jinyu had already flown towards Feng Qitong like a butterfly in flight.
Seeing this, Zhang Ling'er wrinkled her nose in grievance and said, "You won't even hug me..."
"Then let me hug you, okay?"
Lu Shan appeared out of nowhere, looking at her with a gentle expression. At that moment, the grievance on Zhang Ling'er's face vanished, and she nodded gently, a slight blush appearing on her pretty face.
Lu Shan opened his arms and gave Zhang Ling'er a big hug.
He smiled contentedly.
at the same time.
Just as Feng Qitong was pondering what to do, Jiang Jinyu suddenly stood gracefully in front of him.
Even when he looked at him, the latter did not look away, but instead met his gaze openly.
"You...aren't you afraid of me anymore?"
Feng Qitong suppressed her joy and said.
Why should I be afraid of you?
The little girl asked back with a charmingly witty retort.
Feng Qitong finally couldn't hold back anymore. The grievances of the past few days turned into tears and flowed out in an instant. He gently hugged the little girl, who did not struggle. Then she hugged Feng Qitong back and whispered, "It's so good to have you."
For this extremely cunning and aloof man, the little girl's words seemed to possess a peculiar magic, making him willingly succumb to her charms.
This is perhaps what it means to have armor protecting your weaknesses.
The two hugged each other tightly.
Zhou Mu, who is now separated from Ye Mujiu, can only be fed a mouthful of dog food (a Chinese slang term for witnessing public displays of affection).
Just as he was about to find some comfort, he saw Lu Shan and Zhang Ling'er embracing each other. Perhaps if they weren't in broad daylight with outsiders watching, they would have taken it to the next level.
Goodness, out of five people, there are two couples, leaving him all alone. He looks so lonely right now.
"Cough cough!"
He coughed twice, feigning profundity, intending to signal the four to tone it down a bit, but to his surprise, perhaps because they were so caught up in their joy, none of them paid him any attention.
Seeing that blissful expression on his face was undoubtedly a devastating blow to him.
Did I not check the almanac before going out today?
Zhou Mu couldn't help but feel a little self-doubt.
After waiting for a while, seeing that the group was so engrossed in their own world that they still ignored him, he finally gave up, went to his room, slammed the door shut, and went to sleep.
Just treat it as an afternoon nap.
Night falls, and darkness once again envelops the world.
Nighttime is naturally the best time for assassinations, as the ink-black darkness can conceal a considerable number of figures.
As night fell, everyone began to get nervous.
Add to that the howling wind, as if a monster were scurrying through the darkness, and the branches swayed violently, unable to withstand the immense pressure, causing the leaves to fall with a rustling sound. This was probably what they meant by "the wind is blowing loudly before a storm."
At this moment, all five of them are gathered in one room.
Everyone held their breath and waited.
Outside, in the midst of a stormy night, the arrays in every corner of the Wentian Tower slowly began to rotate, with faint spiritual light drifting in the air and merging with them.
"Do you think... they'll make a move?" Zhang Ling'er spoke first in the silent darkness.
She didn't have to stay here, but worried about Jiang Jinyu, she insisted on staying. Lu Shan firmly stated that Zhang Ling'er stayed because of him.
"well!"
Upon hearing this, Zhou Mu couldn't help but sigh and said, "You're saying the assassination target isn't me, so why am I so nervous?"
As soon as he said this, many seemingly dangerous glances fell on him.
Nestled in Feng Qitong's arms, Jiang Jinyu grinned and said softly, "So you mean, I'm a burden?"
Zhou Mu quickly shook his head, "No, no, I wouldn't dare."
"That's good." Jiang Jinyu giggled.
