They were busy until almost nightfall. After paying the chefs well, Liu Nian pulled up Zhou Momo, who was struggling with the pork chop, and gestured for her to hurry up and carry the big bag.
It was getting dark, and this was no joke. Even someone as powerful as Liu Nian wouldn't dare to wander around recklessly in the dark.
Zhou Momo stuffed several more mouthfuls of meat into her mouth until her cheeks were bulging, making her look like an angry pufferfish.
However, she still listened to Liu Nian and started carrying the large and small bags in front of her.
She can tell the difference between being full at one meal and being full at every other meal!
The two bid farewell to Bai Su and ran wildly toward the hotel where Liu Nian was staying.
Before parting, Liu Nian declined Bai Su's offer of help and politely said goodbye.
The two women's gazes met in the air, and they both saw wariness in each other's eyes.
Zhou Momo happily followed behind Liu Nian, turning her head to taunt him defiantly.
You weren't selected back then, and you never will be now. You're still dreaming of getting the job because you're in a privileged position? You don't even deserve it.
After losing sight of the two of them, Bai Su grumbled inwardly with dissatisfaction.
Sister Ling wanted to get closer to Liu Nian, and after learning about Liu Nian's abilities, she was happy to oblige.
If all goes well, I will also be able to enter the core circle and gain a lot of influence.
Unfortunately, no matter how she tried to signal him, he remained completely indifferent.
Just as Sister Ling said, this man was very polite but distant to people he didn't know well.
But she still had a chance. The fact that Zhou Momo hadn't won him over for so long meant that he had never really seen her as a woman.
Young and beautiful – that's how men judge a woman, regardless of her age.
She was far superior to Zhou Momo in terms of figure, appearance, and age. As long as Sister Ling created more opportunities, she was certain to succeed.
When a woman pursues a man, it's as easy as piercing a thin veil!
A guy like him, who's always taking things easy and has absolutely no experience with women, requires you to take the initiative to win him over.
...
"Where's your golden wavy hair?" Zhou Momo asked, following behind Liu Nian with bags and packages, not forgetting to gossip.
Golden waves? A vampire?
"Why are you asking this?" Liu Nian didn't know how to answer, so she simply asked back.
"Didn't you two claim to be inseparable?" Zhou Momo didn't respond, pushing the question back to her.
I won't tell you!
"You stingy person."
"Give back what you ate of mine!!"
"Ugh." Zhou Momo made a throat-digging motion.
"Naive." Liu Nian expressed his utter contempt without reservation.
The two chatted and laughed all the way back to the hotel.
At the door, Zhou Momo put down her bundle, seemingly with no intention of leaving.
"You're no longer of any use to me, so why don't you just disappear?" Liu Nian waved his right hand, making a gesture as if shooing away a fly.
"Tsk tsk tsk, heartless man." Zhou Momo looked at Liu Nian and laughed in anger.
"Is this the first day you've met me?" Liu Nian put his hands in his pockets, looked up at the sky with feigned indifference.
"Okay! Can I ask you a question?" Zhou Momo asked Liu Nian as she put down her bag.
"Granted!"
"You're not gay, are you?" Zhou Momo asked mysteriously as she leaned closer.
? ? ?
? ? ? ?
A fujoshi (female fan of male-male romance)!!!
"Get lost!!!" Liu Nian was so frightened that he blurted out the wrong thing.
Zhou Momo covered her mouth and laughed as she saw Liu Nian's expression of having his tail stepped on.
Then, urged by Liu Nian, he reluctantly turned and left.
"Zhou Momo," Liu Nian suddenly spoke from behind.
"what?"
Zhou Momo turned around, only to be hit in the chest by a heavy object.
Looking down, I saw it was one of the bags of dry food.
Liu Nian told Zhou Momo the results of her experiment and told her, "Live well."
Zhou Momo felt her eyes getting a little wet and said softly, "You're so good to me!"
"Fat it up, we'll slaughter it at the end of the year!" Liu Nian rolled her eyes, slammed the door shut in annoyance, and her voice reached Zhou Momo's ears through the crack in the door.
It took me a while to realize that he had just called me a pig.
Damn it, I was so touched for nothing!!!
...
I didn't sleep well all night; there was the constant roar of cars before dark.
The car's roar only ceased when the distinctive sound of the nocturnal monster began to ring out.
At night, experienced people will cover the light sources tightly to avoid being attacked by nocturnal monsters.
These hordes of monsters can attack any living creature or light source that appears in the darkness.
Even Liu Nian wouldn't dare to provoke them easily, otherwise the whole night would be filled with hordes of nocturnal monsters that would swarm in from all directions until one side was killed.
The next day, Liu Nian was awakened by a knock on the door.
You'd better have something urgent to do!
Liu Nian was very angry because she didn't sleep well last night and her plan to wake up naturally today was ruined.
Carefully opening the door, one finds Lord He's personal guards standing at the entrance.
It seems we're about to embark on a campaign to exterminate the spiders?
Liu Nian's chaotic mind began to function, but he wasn't sure about it, so he waited for the other person to speak.
"The city lord requests your presence to discuss important matters," the visitor said with a smile.
Okay, we're going to the spider's nest.
"Hold on."
It's a bit impolite to receive guests with a dirty face before washing up!
They traveled in silence. He Xi and his group's camp was not far from here, and soon they appeared in front of Liu Nian.
There were also some bricklayers busy at the entrance, it seems everyone is very enthusiastic about building the castle.
After a night of absence, many more vehicles appeared in the camp, and many people were busily loading supplies into them.
After inquiry, it was learned that all the indigenous people had safely moved over before last night.
No wonder there were so many car engines roaring last night; other guilds must have been doing the same.
The guards led Liu Nian into a room and then left.
There were many people chatting in the room, but when they saw Liu Nian come in, the conversation stopped and they immediately fell silent.
Old City Lord He was chatting with the people around him when he saw Liu Nian coming over to greet him personally.
People continued to enter the venue, and it wasn't until everyone was confirmed that Lord He announced the purpose of his visit.
Just as Liu Nian had guessed, their destination was the spider's nest.
Liu Nian noticed that apart from Chen Ling and Dugu Xing, who were close to He Zhi, only a few small group leaders had come, while the leaders of the other large groups were not present.
I wonder if this situation will cause any unexpected problems?
Lord He promised several benefits on the stage, successfully stirring up the emotions of the crowd.
Hundreds of people then boarded the vehicles and marched in a grand procession toward the spider's nest that Liu Nian was familiar with.
Soon, the street covered in spider silk appeared before everyone.
Ignoring the spider-infested street, the current objective, according to the plan, is to clear out several surrounding buildings to establish a base.
Since it's unknown how long the extermination of these spiders will last, finding a place to stay is quite necessary in case we can't get home before dark.
Finally, it was unanimously agreed that several nearby houses would serve as the base of operations.
The group dispersed and began clearing out the infected people from the residential area.
After they finish cleaning the entire building, follow-up support staff will come in to provide logistical support.
With many hands making light work, they quickly cleared the houses and split into two groups to head towards the main road covered in cobwebs.
Soon, a dense swarm of spider guards gathered and blocked the crowd's path.
