Lin Wu spoke in a calm tone, yet her words struck the ground with force.
As soon as she had spoken,
there was a certain quiet in the air.
"Pfft!" Only Xue Jinghao couldn’t hold it in and burst out laughing.
Hahaha!
Sister Lin was simply too talented.
Of all people Zhou Yuanshu could have provoked, she just had to provoke Lin Wu!
Even Lu Ye’s eyes carried a hint of a smile.
Shallow,
like the melting of glaciers and the revival of all things.
Guo Dongcheng was also taken aback.
He hadn’t expected that Zhou Yuanshu, with her sharp tongue, would actually be defeated by Lin Wu.
Zhou Yuanshu was even more unexpected.
She just wanted to intimidate Lin Wu, to show her that Guo Dongcheng was no ordinary person, and neither was she.
She hadn’t expected Lin Wu to be so uncultured!
To actually start cursing people out loud.
Zhou Yuanshu had never been put at such a disadvantage before, especially not in front of Guo Dongcheng.
Zhou Yuanshu tried to calm herself down and turned to look at Lin Wu, "Sister Lin, I was just joking. How can you insult someone like that!"
"Sorry, I only insult ’people’," Lin Wu stressed the word "people" deliberately.
Since Zhou Yuanshu had no intention of communicating properly from the beginning, Lin Wu certainly intended to treat her the same way.
Lin Wu was never the type to swallow her words and suffer in silence.
Zhou Yuanshu was already very angry, and these words made her even more furious.
Was Lin Wu implying that she wasn’t human?
How did Lin Wu dare?
Upon hearing this, Tang Yue, Zhou Yuanshu’s little sidekick, angrily stepped forward, "Sister Yuanshu has already explained that it was just a joke, why must you be so petty? Can’t you be a bit more generous?"
Lin Wu could certainly tell that Tang Yue was ridiculing her for being small-minded.
"Your idea of generosity is—" Lin Wu said with a faint smile, "for me to suffer just to make you happy?"
Everyone is new to being human.
Why should Lin Wu yield to them?
Tang Yue’s eyes widened; this woman was simply too much, showing no appreciation for kindness.
Did she know whose territory Qing City was?
Her arrogance was nothing more than relying on Guo Dongcheng’s affections.
Once Guo Dongcheng grew tired of her,
what would she have left?
Just wait!
She would make Lin Wu regret it.
Guo Dongcheng stood up timely and said with a smile, "Alright now, we’re all friends here, no need to make it such a big deal! Yuanshu, tonight was indeed your fault, apologize to Sister Lin."
Now that Guo Dongcheng had spoken, Zhou Yuanshu, despite her reluctance, could only grit her teeth and apologize.
"I’m sorry."
And Tang Yue followed suit with an apology.
Although Guo Dongcheng hadn’t specifically asked her to apologize, with Miss Zhou admitting her mistake, she had to follow suit.
After the apologies, Guo Dongcheng looked back at Lin Wu and then said to the group, "Let’s go back."
Not until Guo Dongcheng and his group had left,
did Xue Jinghao give Lin Wu a thumbs-up, "Sister Lin, today you’ve really impressed me."
Lin Wu slightly raised her eyebrows, "Are you saying that I haven’t impressed you before?"
Wasn’t she always this formidable?
Xue Jinghao, recalling many past events, picked up a cocktail from the table and stated formally, "Sister Lin, I toast to you."
Lin Wu picked up her half-finished cola and clinked glasses with Xue Jinghao.

Mu Baicheng woke up amidst a splitting headache.
The sensation of a hangover was quite unbearable.
He even forgot how he had fallen asleep, and how he had managed to get into bed. freewebnσvel.cѳm
Pinching his temples, Mu Baicheng threw off the covers, ready to freshen up and then look for Lin Guixiang.
No matter what.
He couldn’t easily lose Lin Guixiang.
But the moment he threw off the covers, Mu Baicheng was frozen in shock.
In his bed lay a woman.
Is this an illusion?
Mu Baicheng forcefully closed his eyes.
Yet, when he opened them again, nothing had changed before his eyes.
It wasn’t an illusion.
Zheng Niannian also woke up at that moment, and upon seeing Mu Baicheng, she became even more panicked, immediately pulling up the covers to hide herself and crying out, "Baicheng, Brother Baicheng? What’s going on?!"
