Chapter 517: Multi-faceted

Late at night.

Heavy fog causes the humidity in the air to rise sharply, making people feel very uncomfortable.

This is especially true for some fluffy little animals.

"Oh! It's so annoying!"

The little fox puffed out its cheeks and shook its wet fur desperately.

"No one is allowed to sleep in the middle of the night. They have to come to this hall to guard."

"When the matter is settled, I'll let the fool treat me to hot pot."

"Oh? What hot pot?"

The similarly fluffy little hamster shook its head and looked at Hu Xiaobei with twinkling starry eyes.

She is happy when she hears about the food. This is the character of this girl.

"snort."

The little fox ignored her, but turned his head angrily, muttering something like "Sure enough, there are other animals outside."

There is quite a bit of resentment towards women.

"Well."

The little hamster seemed a little aggrieved for being left out. She looked up at Hu Xiaobei and said nothing.

When Wang Jin called before, he said that the helper he hired might lose his temper.

As for the solution...

It's strange, but surprisingly simple.

"Why are you looking at me like that?"

As if he couldn't stand Xiao Hui's gaze, Hu Xiaobei sighed and looked down at him.

This little hamster...is so cute.

"Then if you want to eat hot pot, you can barely bring it with you..."

"You are the sister who cooks delicious food, right? Wang Jin often mentions you in front of us."

The little hamster jumped around twice and seemed quite happy.

The words were taught by Wang Jin, but the emotions cannot be faked.

She likes this Hu Xian who is good at cooking.

"Damn it, let's fight it."

Seeing the scarecrow running closer and closer, Wu Zhuo cursed in a low voice and then lit the lighter.

The polluted fire light danced, and it was incredibly dazzling in the dark night.

"Cough cough cough!"

Wu Zhuo vomited blood suddenly, and his face turned pale.

A strong feeling of discomfort arose, as if I had some strange illness.

His luck is not very good.

But Wu Zhun doesn't have time to worry about this now.

His attention was focused on the figure in the distance.

That guy didn't notice anything unusual here.

Even the scarecrow who tried to run back to Wu Zhuo seemed to have lost his goal and ran in another direction after hesitating for a moment.

"ha?"

Wu Zhuo's eyes widened with surprise on his face.

He probably understands the use of this lighter.

"Did you see clearly?"

Bai Jiu narrowed his eyes and asked Shi Baibai in a low voice.

"Um."

The latter nodded and reached out to hold the golden willow leaf on his forehead.

"The head of Lu?"

Bai Jiu narrowed his eyes and saw a spike on his hand.

Wang Jin's order to himself was to fight, so he would just fight.

Even that scheming old man would not take a step back.

"No."

Shi Baibai shook his head, his expression a little complicated.

"...is it a doctor?"

Bai Jiu sighed, his heart tightening.

That powerful and strange man made him lose his fighting spirit.

"No, it's not."

Shi Baibai shook his head and squinted his eyes, as if repeatedly confirming that he had not seen it wrong.

"It's Uncle Lu who runs the fish stall."

"…who?"

Bai Jiu scratched his head, his face full of confusion.

——

"Thank you for your hard work, Chang."

With a gentle smile on his face, the young man cupped his hands towards Chang Ye.

"The old man treats you as your equal, just call me Chang Ye."

The woman stretched out her white and tender palms and gently tidied the slightly messy hair on her temples.

"Sister Changye."

Wang Jin smiled and stepped forward, standing side by side with the woman.

Changye is very tall.

Wearing high heels is almost as good as Wang Jin.

This resulted in her having a very strong aura, as if she was overlooking everything.

But Chang Ye, who was standing next to Wang Jin, completely lost that feeling.

The young man who always had a gentle smile seemed much scarier than Changye.

"The scum who betrayed the Liu family is named Liu Jianghe."

Chang Ye wiped the blood on his face and spoke softly.

"In terms of seniority, he is my second brother."

"Condolences."

Wang Jin lowered his eyebrows and didn't know what he was thinking.

"Actually, I'm not too sad."

Chang Ye sighed and turned to look at Wang Jin.

"I have held the position of steward of the She family for sixteen years."

"I have seen the changes in the She family over the years."

"Liu Jianghe is not the first to betray the Liu family, and he will not be the last."

"Then you say...who will be next?"

Wang Jin narrowed his eyes and spoke in a serious tone.

"You're doubting me."

Chang Ye looked at the young man in front of him, his tone unquestionable.

"Ah, that's right."

"But that's not what I doubt about you."

Wang Jin spread his hands and covered up these words lightly.

"From the moment we met, I could sense that you had less obvious hostility towards me."

"Although you try hard to act as a qualified steward in front of me, but...how should I put it, you are too stiff."

"Excessive displays of kindness will make people like me feel uncomfortable."

The young man gestured gently, trying to make Chang Ye recall some tiny details.

For example, he slapped the male receptionist away in front of Wang Jin, and had that defeated smile.

To put it simply, these performances are a bit too hard.

“…”

Chang Ye didn't speak, just stared at Wang Jin.

She knew the young man from the company was smart.

But she didn't expect Wang Jin to be so perceptive.

"For some reason, you want to kill me."

"If I guess correctly, it may have something to do with that sacrifice... or She Yin."

The young man moved his wrist slightly, and his tone was as calm as if he was talking about what to eat for lunch.

"But it's okay that you treat the Liu family sincerely."

"In this way, we can still be regarded as allies with common interests."

"Sacrifice matters have nothing to do with me."

"I don't want to care about what problems She Yin may have."

"So from now on... let's get along well."

Wang Jin smiled and looked at the woman who had lived for a long time but was still young and beautiful, and spoke softly.

——

"Huh...why am I so nosy?"

The man tugged on his mask and walked quickly through the mist.

The figure in front of him is a little blurry, but the outline can be roughly seen.

It was obvious that he was the one who disappeared during the fight for the immortal bones.

Although he didn't know why the other party was wandering on the street in the middle of the night, he still wanted to take care of it.

The situation in the Northeast is becoming more and more complicated, and fewer and fewer evil people are still willing to remain neutral.

If he can't seize this opportunity to convince Wu Zhuo, then the only way is to kill him directly.

"Ha...he ran really fast."

Another slightly different voice came from under the mask, complaining softly.

"Shut up."

The man squinted his eyes, as if he was dissatisfied with the behavior of his mouth.

"Tsk, why don't you tell me...wait a minute."

Another voice muttered softly, then stopped suddenly.

After a while, he spoke again.

"There seems to be someone behind me."
