Watching Zhou Qiaoqiao and An Youyi walk away from his side, Shen Cheng's little eyes were filled with nothing but resentment.
No respect for martial ethics!!!
Absolutely no respect for martial ethics!
"My dear daughter! Your dad can only help you this much."
"It's not that your dad is cowardly, but that female bodyguard is practically a monster. Besides, you don’t want to see your dad lying in a hospital bed, do you?"
Shen Cheng muttered to himself, trying to console himself.
Earning money? If I lose my life, how can I even earn money?
Inside the office.
Shen Manni realized that Xu Mo was someone who couldn’t be swayed by either soft or hard tactics.
She had tried every method.
But none of them worked.
In the end, she gave up.
And so, the two of them just stared at each other, creating an incredibly awkward atmosphere.
Until a knock on the door broke the silence.
*Knock knock knock*
"Xu Mo, I’m here to pick you up."
A melodious female voice came from outside.
The voice was nothing short of heavenly!
Xu Mo was momentarily stunned, like a dumbfounded goose.
But then, he couldn’t contain his excitement.
[Damn! The female demon arrived just in time, better late than never.]
[Let’s go home, let’s go home, time to bounce.]
Xu Mo raised his hand, coughing twice to cover up his awkwardness.
But it didn’t help at all.
It only made the atmosphere even more awkward.
￣□￣｜｜
"Miss Shen, let’s call it a day for now. I have something to attend to, so I’ll be leaving."
Shen Manni gave a cold smile.
Miss... Miss Shen?
In the past, he used to call her Manni, Manni.
Even if it was just an act.
At least it felt a bit more intimate.
But now, with a new love in his life.
He didn’t even bother to put on the act anymore.
He just called her Miss Shen.
Xu Mo didn’t pay any attention to Shen Manni, who was still in a daze.
He walked to the door.
And pulled it open.
Xu Mo was stunned. It wasn’t just the female demon who had come.
Even the Dragon Queen had tagged along.
Xu Mo and Zhou Qiaoqiao exchanged a glance.
The last time they had a candy incident was... well, the last time.
They were like an old married couple now.
Candy? Pfft, who cared about that.
Xu Mo didn’t blush or feel flustered. Instead, he asked curiously, "Why are you here? And how did you know I was here?"
Zhou Qiaoqiao’s lips curled into a smile, her peach-blossom eyes sparkling as she blinked. "How could I not come?"
"I was worried your ex would sweep you away. If that happened, I’d have nowhere to cry."
Shouldn’t I be playing along with your act, but instead, I’m ignoring it?
Ex?
What ex?
Female demon, you’re so mean!!!!
That stupid woman never even agreed to be with me, did she?
Xu Mo knew that the female demon loved to joke around.
So he didn’t get annoyed.
"No, when I was pursuing Miss Shen, she never agreed to be with me in the end. She’s not my ex."
He couldn’t just ruin someone’s reputation like that.
Even if that stupid woman didn’t care about her reputation.
Xu Mo still had some dignity to maintain.
This dark history couldn’t be left hanging!
The two of them bantered back and forth.
Meanwhile, Shen Manni’s brows were almost knitted into a knot on the other side!
Did they think she wasn’t an outsider?
Couldn’t they just say whatever they wanted?
These two just wouldn’t stop.
Zhou Qiaoqiao smiled sweetly, covering her mouth with her delicate, jade-like hand.
"Ohhh--- so that’s how it is. I thought you two were already together."
"No, no, you’re overthinking it."
"Why don’t you agree to be with her? Didn’t I say it before? After marriage, you can have as many as you want. I wouldn’t mind at all."
Hiss!!!!!!
Xu Mo took a sharp breath.
Could there really be such a good deal?
Zhou Qiaoqiao had indeed said that before.
But that wasn’t his intention!!!!
With so many sweet temptations surrounding him.
Beauty could weaken a man’s will!
It could drain his energy.
Get rid of it! Get rid of it! It had to go!
Shen Manni’s frosty expression finally cracked!
The corner of her mouth twitched uncontrollably!
Had these two already conspired together?
To deliberately mess with her?
Out of sight, out of mind.
The appearance of Zhou Qiaoqiao and An Youyi.
Had undoubtedly disrupted her grand plan to deceive the dog.
There was no way to continue now.
She had no choice but to send them away.
*Tap tap tap*
Before Shen Manni could say anything.
An Youyi moved, walking toward Xu Mo.
Seeing this.
Both Zhou Qiaoqiao and Shen Manni were confused.
The smile on Xu Mo’s face vanished in an instant. Oh no!
This is bad, this is bad.
We didn’t film anything today.
So I didn’t give her the noon portion.
This is a disaster!!!!!!!!
Xu Mo took half a step back, his movement completely serious.
"Cough cough... Youyi, Youyi, wait a bit... ummm..."
But it was too late.
An Youyi had already closed the distance.
Regardless of the place, regardless of the occasion.
The clueless Dragon Queen.
Really didn’t know the meaning of the word "fear."
Perhaps in her dictionary.
That word didn’t exist.
Xu Mo tried to break free.
Who said women were weaker than men?
Damn, the Dragon Queen was stronger than him.
Golden Bell Shield and Iron Shirt didn’t come with a strength buff!
If life deceives you.
Then just close your eyes and enjoy it.
Enjoy my ass!!!!
Xu Mo was on the verge of tears.
Oh my god!!!!!
From now on, I better give it to her in advance.
Can’t delay anymore.
Delaying for a while feels good; delaying all the time feels even better.
If etiquette isn’t followed, tears will flow.
Zhou Qiaoqiao’s expression shifted, but she didn’t stop it.
As for Shen Manni.
She swallowed hard.
Watched for a while.
And noticed that An Youyi still hadn’t stopped.
Aside from feeling a bit sour inside.
She mostly felt a secret sense of satisfaction!
‘Hehe---------- Now it’s your turn to feel uncomfortable, isn’t it?’
‘Tsk tsk tsk... Zhou Qiaoqiao, how does it feel to watch Xu Mo get kissed by another woman right in front of you?’
Shen Manni glanced in Zhou Qiaoqiao’s direction.
She wanted to see.
If this woman was as honest as she claimed---------
Or if her words didn’t match her actions.
Saying one thing but doing another.
But to her disappointment.
Zhou Qiaoqiao’s lips curled into a beautiful smile.
As if she was amused.
Shen Manni was baffled.
Wow!
You’ve got quite the nerve!
How can you still smile at a time like this?
The wind has stopped, the sky has cleared.
Shen Manni felt like she was back in the game!
After a while.
Finally, it was over.
Xu Mo could finally breathe fresh air again.
It felt like an entire century had passed.
He had figured it out.
Why the Dragon Queen had come.
This woman was a true wolf!
"Hehe... Darling, feeling better now?"
"Much better."
Xu Mo instinctively nodded in response.
Duh!
I can breathe again.
Of course, I feel better!
"Good, now it’s my turn."
"Huh?????"
Xu Mo was completely baffled.
What the hell.
Am I just a practice tool now?
Yep.
Xu Mo was blocked again.
This was just too much.
An Youyi made some room.
The Dragon Queen licked her lips, as if savoring a meal.
Shen Manni felt that if she had committed any sins.
The heavens should just give her a quick death!
Instead of torturing her slowly like this.
Hello, hello, does anyone not understand why Shen Manni fell for Xu Mo?
Let’s just say that after going through so much together and spending so much time with him, feelings naturally developed.
In the past, Xu Mo spent the most time with her, and besides, Xu Mo wasn’t really a scumbag--
Hehe, there’s more to it.
e bizarre and supernatural had descended. The previous emperor was a thoroughgoing tyrant; no longer satisfied with human women, he had set his sights on a stunningly beautiful supernatural entity. He met his end in his bedchamber, drained of all his vital essence. As the legitimate eldest son and crown prince, Wang Hao was thus hastily enthroned, becoming the young emperor of the Great Zhou Dynasty. No sooner had he awakened the "Imperial Sign-In Intelligence System" than he was assassinated by a Son of Destiny—a classic villain's opening. The Great Zhou, ravaged by the former emperor's excesses, was in national decline. The great families within its borders harbored their own treacherous schemes, martial sects began to defy the imperial court's decrees, and border armies, their pay and provisions in arrears, grumbled incessantly against the central government. Fortunately, the central capital was still held secure by the half-million Imperial Guards and fifty thousand Imperial Forest Army who obeyed the court's orders, along with the royal family's hidden reserves of power, barely managing to suppress the realm. As the Great Zhou's finances worsened and supernatural activities grew ever more frequent, the court sat atop a volcano. Ambitious plotters everywhere dreamed of overthrowing the dynasty, and even some reclusive ancient powers emerged, attempting to sway the tides of the world. At the first grand court assembly, the civil and military officials nearly came to blows, fighting tooth and nail over the allocation of fifty million taels of silver from the summer tax revenues. The spectacle opened Wang Hao's eyes—the Great Zhou's bureaucracy was not only corrupt but also martially proficient, a cabinet of all-rounders. Some officials even had the audacity to suggest the emperor release funds from the imperial privy purse to address the emergency. Wang Hao suddenly felt weary. Let it all burn.
close your eyes and open them again, only to find yourself transmigrated into the role of a villainous male supporting character. Readers familiar with urban wish-fulfillment novels know that it is only through the relentless antics of the villainous male supporting character that the plot between the male and female leads can progress. As the villainous male supporting character, Long Aotian not only has to bully the female lead, harass the second female lead, and flirt with the third female lead, but he also has to go all out to antagonize the male lead. In the end, when his body is discovered, he is still clutching half a moldy fried dough stick in his hand. Fully aware of the plot, Long Aotian is determined to change his fate, starting with the female lead! In the beginning, the female lead lacks confidence: "Big brother, I hope I didn't scare you?" In the middle, the female lead treads carefully: "Brother Long, please don't hit me, okay?" Later on, the female lead becomes coquettishly clingy: "Aotian, it's time to pay the 'public grain' tonight." Long Aotian's legs go weak, and he feels like crying: "I taught you to be thick-skinned, not shameless!"
