Chapter 1660: Chapter 1640:
"An Hao, I really hope he’ll be okay, and besides, he’s still young, there’s no rush," Luo Qianqian said after a long silence.
"I will respect his wishes. Just like how Brother protects me, I will be his strong support!" Luo Qianqian smiled at Mo.
"That’s nice. Having a sister like you, An Hao is fortunate," Mo nodded, smiling lightly at Luo Qianqian. "But if I had a choice, maybe..."
"What?" Luo Qianqian tilted her head in confusion, looking intently at Mo.
Mo gently shook his head under Luo Qianqian’s gaze: "Hmm, it’s nothing."
"Quite mysterious, if you won’t say, then don’t." Luo Qianqian didn’t press further; everyone has secrets, even those who might end up together are no exception.
"Speaking of which, you should hurry up and handle things here. The enrollment over there is about to start," Mo said calmly to Luo Qianqian, as if he wasn’t the one who said those things earlier.
"Oh, the greater the power, the greater the responsibility. Do you have any protective medicine? I still have to leave some means of self-defense for Brother and Father. Otherwise, wouldn’t they be in great danger in this turbulent world?"
Luo Qianqian didn’t hold back with Mo at all, directly looking at Mo with an outstretched hand and a justified face.
Mo couldn’t help but laugh: "Haven’t I given you the prescription? Can’t you make it yourself?"
Luo Qianqian looked as if this was perfectly natural: "Don’t materials require effort to procure? Why bother when it’s easier to get ready-made ones?"
Mo was left speechless.
She had a point. Why go through the hassle if there’s something ready-made?
But why did he feel a tightness in his chest, unable to move up or down?
Thus, Mo was forced to provide various medications, and Luo Qianqian accepted them unceremoniously to give to her Brother.
Luo Shufan, however, expressed his intent to return to the Nine Heavens Pavilion, stating that he and Luo Qianqian couldn’t both be absent.
Consequently, the medicines ended up in Luo Xinyue’s hands, and even Luo Yanhai and Luo Xisi expressed their intent to return.
Luo Xinyue didn’t offer any resistance, rather he strongly agreed, as he’s perfectly capable of self-defense. But if something happened to others, causing him mental turmoil and thereby rendering him unable to defend himself, it would be a loss.
Besides, wasn’t he staying here to avoid things?
He didn’t dare to face his parents or An Zilan.
He could be frank with the kids, and he could claim a clear conscience to his brother. But he couldn’t do so for his parents or his ex-wife.
Before leaving, Luo Qianqian and Mo visited Elder Deng, bringing a bunch of special local products, making him all smiles, and explained about Yu Qian’s situation. After all, if they handed it over while they were gone, wasn’t there a risk of something going wrong?
Elder Deng, after seeking instructions, also granted Luo Qianqian a green pass, but an individual was assigned to accompany them back.
Upon hearing this, Luo Qianqian squinted her eyes. Follow them? Isn’t that just surveillance? Unfortunately... there was no way to communicate between the two sides.
The most important thing is that the world over there follows the law of the jungle, and this world’s theories don’t influence it at all.
"Following is fine, but I can’t guarantee safety. Also, he’s not allowed near my family. There’s no place for him at the Nine Heavens Pavilion. I’ll agree under those conditions," Luo Qianqian calmly stated.
This implied that life or death was not their responsibility!
Elder Deng was silent for a moment, his face changing several times, yet he was helpless.
This kind of thing, he truly disliked being involved.
But perhaps this was the girl’s limit for tolerance?
Not everyone can tolerate having someone blatantly placed next to them as a pawn, and it’s already quite good not to take action.
In fact, he couldn’t even understand the intentions of those above.
Not only does it offend Luo Qianqian, but it also risks losing cultivated elites. After all, if life or death is not a concern, what else is there to say?
When he reported back, the other side only paused briefly before agreeing, leaving him incredulous.
Originally thanks to Luo Qianqian’s efforts, superpower users from various countries wouldn’t target them anymore, but if they acted like this, wouldn’t it be cutting off their own retreat? If Luo Qianqian wasn’t around, could the treaties based on her still exist?
"Heh..." Luo Qianqian and Mo sat expressionlessly.
"It’s your fault for insisting on bringing that strange person here, and now it’s brought me trouble," Luo Qianqian grumbled as she unwrapped the specialties she had brought, eating them without a care for others’ glances.
"Blame me, huh? Actually, sending it back works too, I don’t need it," Mo shrugged, the two of them squabbling as they dug into the food.
By the time Elder Deng met the ’spy’ gentleman, they had eaten up nine-tenths of the specialties they brought, leaving only one box.
Only then did Luo Qianqian reluctantly stop.
Hmph, wanting her things, and wanting the means to obtain her things? Dream on!
The benefits disappear from now on, and any future visits will have to have dad prepare things!
Looking at the ’spy’ gentleman in front, Luo Qianqian didn’t feel like speaking...
Not until they were out of the compound did she angrily confront the person in front of her: "Zhang Sheng, was it necessary? Where did you find someone who could make me compromise?"
Zhang Sheng smiled slightly: "Isn’t it that opportunities should be fought for? Moreover, if it were me, you wouldn’t resist too much, and I wouldn’t do anything to harm you all."
"So, why exactly are you following us?!" Luo Qianqian rolled her eyes.
"... Uh, are you sure you want to hear?" Zhang Sheng hesitated a bit.
Luo Qianqian nodded affirmatively.
"To pursue you..." Zhang Sheng said, only after Mo waved away any extraneous noise: "But don’t worry, I’m not that foolish... Besides, I already like someone."
"Men, even if they like someone else, pursuing another isn’t that hard," Luo Qianqian remarked, thinking that this applied to women as well.
"And why you? There must be plenty of good-looking ones among the second and third generations who meet my aesthetic..." Luo Qianqian noted Mo’s eyebrow raise and stuck out her tongue.
She only mentioned meeting her aesthetic, nothing else.
"Because we’re classmates..."
Zhang Sheng hadn’t expected to be chosen due to being Luo Qianqian’s classmate. But, on the bright side, he now had a way to approach He Wenyu!
After that day returning from the Luo Family, he was called upon and got to know that there were other worlds. He also learned that the so-called apocalypse was no mere rumor, but truly impending. Yet before complete Darkness hit, it was resolved, and hence he could still feel the warm sunlight now.
The one who achieved all this was the girl who had shone brilliantly since childhood. Smart, wise, and capable, knowing about her gave him a sense that Luo Qianqian was unapproachable, and naturally, made him refrain from having any thoughts.
