Global Update [Quick Transmigration]
Chapter 102
After hearing Jing Xinglan's self-report, Adam felt that he was determined enough not to jump up on the spot.
In fact, not only did he not jump up, he even sat on his seat, trying to force out a stiff smile, although the two fists hidden under the tablecloth creaked loudly: "It turns out that it is the second young master of the Jing family." ...How did you become Mr. Yan's family?"
Jing Xinglan said calmly, "Because we are together."
Adam didn't know what to say. Finally, he could only say dryly: "Bless you."
"Thank you."
Jing Xinglan leaned on the seat in a relaxed posture, casually observing the room from the corner of his eye.This is the second floor of the embassy. His position is facing a glazed window. The precious porcelain and agate corals are known to be rare treasures in the former imperial palace at a glance.Especially the black jade screen placed in the southeast direction, it will definitely be a precious collection that can be listed as a national treasure after a hundred years.
Probably because Jing Xinglan's eyes stayed on the screen for too long, Adam was worried that he found something wrong, so he couldn't help but said: "Well, since the people have arrived, why don't we have a banquet?"
Qiao Jing glanced at Jing Xinglan, and the man shook his head vaguely at him.
It was meaningless to stand still for the time being. Although this was somewhat different from their original plan, Qiao Jing believed in Jing Xinglan's decision in this regard.So, he endured his temper, picked up chopsticks and concentrated on cooking.
But Adam didn't really want to invite him to dinner when he set up this dinner.Before Qiao Jing could take a bite, he couldn't wait to say: "Mr. Yan, some misunderstandings may have caused some unpleasantness between us a while ago, and I hope you don't mind."
Qiao Jing's eyes fixed on the oily and crispy roast duck that Jing Xinglan turned in front of him, and he didn't care what Adam said at all.
"Well, I don't mind."
"I'm really happy that you came to this dinner," Adam continued with an aria-like voice, "As the rumors outside, Mr. Yan is indeed a smart person. To be honest, such a poor and weak Huaguo The country has delayed your development, you are welcome to come to my country, and I can help you introduce some celebrities in the literary circles of our country, so that you can make your way to the top and become famous all over the world!"
Jing Xinglan frowned slightly when he saw that Qiao Jing was always picking meat, and turned another plate of vegetables in front of him.Staring at the plate of green vegetable leaves, the black-haired young man looked a little reluctant. The two of them were in a stalemate for a moment, but finally Qiao Jing softened, and silently picked up a vegetable in his mouth, chewing listlessly.
Adam, who had been talking endlessly there, finally noticed the small movements between the two. He coughed heavily and raised his voice, "Mr. Yan, what do you think of my proposal just now?"
Qiao Jing looked up blankly: "Huh?"
A vein twitched on Adam's forehead, he took a deep breath, and repeated his previous words with the last of his self-control.
"Oh," Qiao Jing finally understood this time, Adam wanted him to change his nationality, "Thank you ambassador for the invitation."
"But I refuse."
Adam stood up abruptly from his seat.
He took a quick breath, and stared at Qiao Jing unbearably: "Yan Heqing, what on earth do you want to do? Don't really think that those old men who are half buried in the ground can protect you. Let me tell you, if you don't Promise, from now on, there will be no place for you in the entire Hua Kingdom!"
Seeing that Adam finally broke his face and stopped pretending, Qiao Jing also put down his chopsticks.
It's a pity, he thought in his heart with some regret, this meal is good, it was a waste.
"Mr. Ambassador," he raised his head to look at Adam, and said calmly, "Before you accuse me, why don't you let the few people you hide behind the screen come out first."
Adam choked for a moment, and before he could explain that the thugs were just in case, he was dumbfounded to see Qiao Jing bent down and picked up a black cat from under the table, and held it up in front of him.
The black cat raised a paw and gave him a symbolic wave.
Adam and 008 stared wide-eyed, and even suspected that they were still dreaming: "...What is this for?"
"It's nothing." Jing Xinglan walked up to Qiao Jing and put his hands on his shoulders. He said with a smile, "It's just that our family wants to say goodbye to Mr. Ambassador before leaving. I hope that in the days to come, You can eat well, sleep well, and be healthy."
After the words fell, a dazzling light suddenly flashed in front of Adam's eyes.
He screamed in fright, subconsciously took a few steps back, and even fell on the tiles because of his loss of balance.The thugs behind the screen heard the abnormal movement and rushed out to protect Adam, but were stunned by the scene in front of them.
After the light faded, the two young men who had just stood in front of Adam and confronted him had fallen to the ground. The black-haired young man was embraced by the man, and the expressions on their faces were peaceful and serene, as if they were just asleep.Adam's eyes widened in disbelief, he didn't even have time to take care of his sprained ankle, he scrambled to get closer, and tested the breathing of the two of them with trembling hands.
After confirming that his worst conjecture came true, he was completely dumbfounded.
"How is it possible???" Adam collapsed on the ground in despair, his mind blank.
He was clearly alive and kicking just now, why is it... just like this?
Adam can even imagine the impact of this incident in China, which will definitely not be inferior to an eight-magnitude earthquake.He can say that he can't argue now, no one will believe him, after all, he himself invited Yan Heqing and the others to the banquet, and so many reporters outside are watching.People are still fine when they come in, and the time for a meal is gone, but anyone with a normal mind will think that he has tampered with!
In broad daylight, the evidence is convincing, and domestic political enemies have been trying to catch him, maybe they will join forces with the furious Zuo Xiangting to directly take him to court and give him a severe sentence... Adam thought desperately , my career, future, reputation, status, and even my entire life are all over!
By the way, he can still escape!
Adam reacted suddenly, rushed to the window and looked down, but soon he found that the group of reporters hadn't left yet, the front and back doors were all blocked, and he had nowhere to escape.
"It's over, it's over..."
With a pale face, he slid against the wall and fell to the ground, his eyes were slack, like a walking dead.
The thugs hadn't figured out the situation yet, so they asked cautiously, "Mr. Ambassador, what about these two people...?"
"What should I do? What else can I do?" Adam laughed miserably. He stared at them viciously, but in his heart he only felt depressed after a crushing defeat. "These Chinese people are desperate lunatics! Hahahahaha..."
Adam really couldn't understand why Qiao Jing and the others did this.
Is it worth sacrificing your own life just to drag him into the water?
But the facts have proved that those who are horizontal are those who are afraid of death.He who is usually known for his insidiousness met two really desperate lunatics, and this time he really fell into a complete mess.He stayed in the embassy for a day and a night, hoping to drive these reporters away, but Qiao Jing and the others did not come out for a long time, but the people outside became more and more surrounded, and finally even people from the government called him to inquire. what is going on.
In desperation, Adam could only tell them the truth.
The person who answered the phone at that time had a very close relationship with Adam. Even so, he was silent for more than a minute.
Finally, a long sigh came from the other end of the phone:
"Mr. Ambassador, you can ask for blessings. From now on, we don't need to contact each other anymore."
After speaking, he hung up the phone.
During this day and night, Adam opened his bloodshot eyes and made all the phone calls he could make. He asked for help from those who flattered him, and they did Tai Chi; They all said there was nothing they could do; when they asked for help from their own country, the person on the other side didn’t think so, and said that they could get things done with a little money, so why make such a fuss, but when Adam said Yan Heqing’s name, he immediately gasped and hesitated. He said that he would help Adam and tell his superiors to see if he could help, so that he could stay calm.
However, more than ten hours passed, and the bell never rang again in the embassy.
Adam was about to break down.
After he almost smashed all the things that could be smashed in the embassy, the bell for help finally rang again.
Adam flew over to connect the phone, his hoarse voice sounded like weeping with joy: "Hello? Have you figured out a solution? Help me figure out how to deal with these two damn corpses, I—"
"What corpse?"
However, what came from the other end of the phone was not the friendly native accent that Adam had expected, but Wen Chunqiu's old voice with deep anger: "Mr. Ambassador, please tell me what you said just now?"
Adam listened to his questioning with ashen face. At this moment, he finally gave up completely.
He hung up the phone without saying a word, staggered out of the embassy gate, and announced the news to everyone in a daze.
All the reporters present were silent.
Xu Xiaoming, who was sent to guard by Xu Weixin, slowly widened his eyes, and the expensive pen bought with half a month's salary fell to the ground.
"I didn't do it," Adam said wearily, "I don't know what's going on..."
But in the next second, his explanation was drowned in the loud curses.
If it wasn't for the thugs protecting Adam, he would have been besieged on the spot and sent to the hospital for emergency treatment.But everyone knows that he can't hide for a while, and this turmoil has only just begun.
The first to attack was the Jing family.
Even though Jing Xinglan was so rebellious that the old man of the Jing family wished he had never given birth to this son, but after learning about it from the elder son, his vision still went dark, and he pointed in the direction of the embassy with trembling fingers, and said in a hoarse voice: "Go and investigate! If these foreigners can't give me a satisfactory explanation, I, Jing Zongcheng, will never stop with them!"
Although he was talking about Jing Zongcheng and not the Jing family, Jing Xinglan was still his younger brother and a member of the Jing family.Jing Li was also very annoyed by this matter, so facing his father's order, he just nodded slightly, then strode out of the mansion with a sullen face.
On the side of Jingluo University, all the teachers and students were immersed in a feeling of grief and indignation. It was supposed to be the vernacular novel club's turn to organize activities this afternoon, but nearly two-thirds of the school's students were present.Holding the newspaper that serialized the ending of "Mortal" that he had borrowed from the library, the president burst into tears.
No one expected that this chapter, which can be called the conferring of the gods, would become a last chapter in the end.
Under Wen Chunqiu's strict prohibition, they did not take any radical actions, and they did not protest outside the embassy again.However, the students could not calm down their inner anger and grief. At the proposal of the president, they came to the newspaper office of "Dongfang Beijing News" in a mighty way.
Looking at the large-character plaque that Xu Weixin asked Qiao Jing to inscribe, the students sat down on the spot, took out pens and paper, and began to write the eulogy.
Many people couldn't help but shed tears as they wrote.
Because they are deeply influenced by Yan Heqing's novels, they can't help but write something similar to a letter when they write.They wrote about their own experiences, about the fate of the nation, about the future of the country, and about how they would continue to inherit Mr. Yan's ideals and beliefs, even though there are tens of thousands of people.Then, the students gathered all the letters together, lit a fire, watched the green smoke go straight to the sky, and conveyed their thoughts.
And Wen Chunqiu and Zuo Xiangting, two old people who are almost 150 years old together, have once again proved to the world that they have a huge influence in China and even in the world.
Under Wen Chunqiu's pressure, the government immediately sent people to arrest Adam, and this time they didn't give the other party any chance to quibble, and directly put him in the prison.Although he himself still clamored that this was an insult to the dignity of his mother country, but this time, even Adam's mother country felt that he had probably lost his mind, otherwise how could he do such a bold thing.
Given the international influence of Yan Heqing's works, this is already a huge mistake on the diplomatic level!
Therefore, after hearing the news, the new ambassador hurriedly took office. After arriving in China, he didn't even have time to eat, so he rushed to the prison to meet Adam.Until then, they still wanted to help Adam be freed from the crime. However, after listening to his narration, the new ambassador could only stand up silently in the sight of his begging, walked out of the prison without a word, and told the people around him: " It's a pity that Mr. Adam seems to be really crazy. He actually said that a white light took the lives of those two Chinese people, and that it was God's punishment...it's ridiculous!"
Under the circumstances, they can only acquiesce in Huaguo's tough treatment of Adam this time. The only requirement is:
Bring Adam back to the country for trial.
This is the last effort made by Western politicians for their "compatriots". Unfortunately, their wish was not fulfilled in the end.
Zuo Xiangting, who has not been a lawyer for many years, helped Adam's political opponent to file a lawsuit for free this time. Even if the other party wanted to pay him, he was determined not to pay him any money, because he said "the only obsession of this old man is to let the murderer be executed."When meeting Adam in court, Zuo Xiangting's expression was photographed by the reporter next to him, and it appeared on the cover of an international magazine with a very explosive headline.
They called his act: "Cold Vengeance"
It is said that when the court was in session, there were hundreds of international students outside the court holding signs demanding that Adam be sentenced to death. The reporter interviewed the leading young man who claimed to be the monitor of Yan Heqing’s university class. The other party’s eyes were red and he told her emotionally , Yan Heqing is his best friend, and his influence on him can be called a life mentor, but now because the villain died young, he can't forgive the murderer no matter what.
In addition, he also showed reporters what he and other international students had collected during this period, Adam's corruption, prostitution, abduction of women and children, and use of illegal means to coerce others to cause personal injury, etc. A series of criminal evidence, scolding Adam as a scumbag, death is not a pity.
Fueled by political enemies, these charges were reported truthfully.
All of a sudden, the people in the two countries were furious. On the way Adam was transferred to another prison, people along the street spat at him and threw rotten leaves. In one night, he was reduced from a high-ranking ambassador to a human being. People shouted and beat rats crossing the street.
This should have been a happy event, but for the first time, domestic reports on these events have received mediocre responses.
It’s like a string being pressed to the limit. Instead of silently enduring suffocation and death in the dark, more and more people choose to stand up and save themselves. From the articles published in newspapers every day, the spirit of people on the street, and This trend can be clearly seen in the development of all walks of life.
Due to the adverse impact of the Adam incident, the government also began to restrict the power of the ambassador in the country. Just like the previous time, it was Jing Li who led the revision of this law.And the book ban initiated by Adam has not been mentioned since then.
A year later, the two giants of the northern and southern newspapers, "Dongfang Beijing News" and "Aimin Daily", merged into one and officially changed its name to "Qingyan Newspaper". Self-explanatory.
The first major event after the establishment of "Qing Yan Bao" was to organize and publish the collection of Yan Heqing's novels.
Because its founding philosophy is "tolerance and inclusion", so, no matter whether it is Chinese or foreign, new or old, as long as it is useful, it has a place on this stage.Thanks to the efforts of these people, the stagnant social gears slowly turned again, and a large number of writers, educators and thinkers with real talents emerged, and literature developed to an unprecedented prosperity in this era.
Afterwards, Wen Chunqiu and Xu Weixin went to Qiao Jing's house together.
Unexpectedly, when receiving them, the expressions of Qiao Jing and Yanzhi looked very calm, not as bad as they imagined.This made Wen Chunqiu feel a bit of relief in addition to being sad.
"If you encounter any difficulties, you must come and talk to me." When parting, he told Yan Zhiyu earnestly, "After all, I am now your teacher."
Rouge nodded slightly.Seeing this, Wen Chunqiu couldn't say anything more, he could only sigh, and patted the girl's head.
"The road ahead will depend on yourselves."
After seeing off the two of them, she turned around and looked at Qiao Jing who had been standing silently in the living room since just now.
The two looked at each other, and finally, Rouge spoke first.
"Do you believe what Mr. and the others wrote in their letter?"
Qiao Jing clenched his fists, but he took a deep breath and replied with firm eyes: "I believe it."
Rouge pursed her lips and smiled.Although her eyes still looked very sad.
"I believe it too," she said softly, "No matter what, I believe in Mr. and the others."
Therefore, even if she and Qiao Jing buried them with their own hands, she would still believe what Qiao Jing wrote in the letter. They didn't die, but for some reason, they had to bid farewell to another world in this way.
A future era very different from this one.
However, even if she believed what Qiao Jing and the others said, such a sudden parting still made Rouge toss and turn for several days, making it difficult to sleep.She felt that she was probably spoiled by her husband and the others. She had suffered so much and suffered so many beatings, but she never cried, but every time it was about something related to Qiao Jing, she always couldn't control it. Hold back your tears and cry like a three year old in front of them.
It is said that a crying child has candy to eat, however, there is no one who would bend down to comfort her gently when she cries.
Rouge tried hard to make herself strong again, just like she had shown in front of Wen Chunqiu and Xu Weixin just now.But after sending them away, she suddenly changed back to her original weak and hopeless appearance.
"Do you know," Qiao Jing said suddenly, he looked up at the empty hall, this was the first time he felt that the house was terribly empty, "Master said in the letter, let me take care of you, he and Mr. You have prepared the dowry, and it is up to you to decide who to give it to.”
Rouge murmured, "Why are you talking about this suddenly..."
"I just want to tell you," Qiao Jing stretched out his hand and grabbed her hand firmly, "I will never abandon you whether you want me or not. Sir, they have their own way to go, so they didn't take us with them, Then let's make a career on our own, without taking them to play!"
Rouge smiled through tears: "What nonsense are you talking about, it's like playing a house."
"I am telling the truth!"
Qiao Jing said affirmatively: "With Mr.'s character, even if Master succeeds in confessing, it will take at least a few years before he wants to have a bridal chamber. It's not like us. Let's go get the certificate when we're eighteen—ouch!"
Rouge's face turned red from what he said, and she gritted her teeth and stomped on Qiao Jing viciously: "Bastard! What nonsense are you talking about!"
Hearing the movement from inside the house, a black back who was sleeping peacefully beside the fountain in the courtyard pricked up his ears alertly.
It looked up and found nothing unusual, only a white butterfly fluttered over the flower bed with its wings fluttering.It looked at it for a while, then lazily returned to its original position, closed its eyes and fell asleep in the sun.
In fact, not only did he not jump up, he even sat on his seat, trying to force out a stiff smile, although the two fists hidden under the tablecloth creaked loudly: "It turns out that it is the second young master of the Jing family." ...How did you become Mr. Yan's family?"
Jing Xinglan said calmly, "Because we are together."
Adam didn't know what to say. Finally, he could only say dryly: "Bless you."
"Thank you."
Jing Xinglan leaned on the seat in a relaxed posture, casually observing the room from the corner of his eye.This is the second floor of the embassy. His position is facing a glazed window. The precious porcelain and agate corals are known to be rare treasures in the former imperial palace at a glance.Especially the black jade screen placed in the southeast direction, it will definitely be a precious collection that can be listed as a national treasure after a hundred years.
Probably because Jing Xinglan's eyes stayed on the screen for too long, Adam was worried that he found something wrong, so he couldn't help but said: "Well, since the people have arrived, why don't we have a banquet?"
Qiao Jing glanced at Jing Xinglan, and the man shook his head vaguely at him.

Qiao Jing's eyes fixed on the oily and crispy roast duck that Jing Xinglan turned in front of him, and he didn't care what Adam said at all.
"Well, I don't mind."
"I'm really happy that you came to this dinner," Adam continued with an aria-like voice, "As the rumors outside, Mr. Yan is indeed a smart person. To be honest, such a poor and weak Huaguo The country has delayed your development, you are welcome to come to my country, and I can help you introduce some celebrities in the literary circles of our country, so that you can make your way to the top and become famous all over the world!"

A vein twitched on Adam's forehead, he took a deep breath, and repeated his previous words with the last of his self-control.
"Oh," Qiao Jing finally understood this time, Adam wanted him to change his nationality, "Thank you ambassador for the invitation."
"But I refuse."
Adam stood up abruptly from his seat.
He took a quick breath, and stared at Qiao Jing unbearably: "Yan Heqing, what on earth do you want to do? Don't really think that those old men who are half buried in the ground can protect you.

And Wen Chunqiu and Zuo Xiangting, two old people who are almost 150 years old together, have once again proved to the world that they have a huge influence in China and even in the world.
Under Wen Chunqiu's pressure, the government immediately sent people to arrest Adam, and this time they didn't give the other party any chance to quibble, and directly put him in the prison.Although he himself still clamored that this was an insult to the dignity of his mother country, but this time, even Adam's mother country felt that he had probably lost his mind, otherwise how could he do such a bold thing.

He actually said that a white light took the lives of those two Chinese people, and that it was God's punishment...it's ridiculous!"
Under the circumstances, they can only acquiesce in Huaguo's tough treatment of Adam this time. The only requirement is:
Bring Adam back to the country for trial.
This is the last effort made by Western politicians for their "compatriots". Unfortunately, their wish was not fulfilled in the end.
Zuo Xiangting, who has not been a lawyer for many years, helped Adam's political opponent to file a lawsuit for free this time. Even if the other party wanted to pay him, he was determined not to pay him any money, because he said "the only obsession of this old man is to let the murderer be executed."When meeting Adam in court, Zuo Xiangting's expression was photographed by the reporter next to him, and it appeared on the cover of an international magazine with a very explosive headline.
They called his act: "Cold Vengeance"
It is said that when the court was in session, there were hundreds of international students outside the court holding signs demanding that Adam be sentenced to death. The reporter interviewed the leading young man who claimed to be the monitor of Yan Heqing’s university class. The other party’s eyes were red and he told her emotionally , Yan Heqing is his best friend, and his influence on him can be called a life mentor, but now because the villain died young, he can't forgive the murderer no matter what.
In addition, he also showed reporters what he and other international students had collected during this period, Adam's corruption, prostitution, abduction of women and children, and use of illegal means to coerce others to cause personal injury, etc. A series of criminal evidence, scolding Adam as a scumbag, death is not a pity.
Fueled by political enemies, these charges were reported truthfully.
All of a sudden, the people in the two countries were furious. On the way Adam was transferred to another prison, people along the street spat at him and threw rotten leaves. In one night, he was reduced from a high-ranking ambassador to a human being. People shouted and beat rats crossing the street.
This should have been a happy event, but for the first time, domestic reports on these events have received mediocre responses.
It’s like a string being pressed to the limit. Instead of silently enduring suffocation and death in the dark, more and more people choose to stand up and save themselves. From the articles published in newspapers every day, the spirit of people on the street, and This trend can be clearly seen in the development of all walks of life.
Due to the adverse impact of the Adam incident, the government also began to restrict the power of the ambassador in the country. Just like the previous time, it was Jing Li who led the revision of this law.And the book ban initiated by Adam has not been mentioned since then.
A year later, the two giants of the northern and southern newspapers, "Dongfang Beijing News" and "Aimin Daily", merged into one and officially changed its name to "Qingyan Newspaper". Self-explanatory.
The first major event after the establishment of "Qing Yan Bao" was to organize and publish the collection of Yan Heqing's novels.
Because its founding philosophy is "tolerance and inclusion", so, no matter whether it is Chinese or foreign, new or old, as long as it is useful, it has a place on this stage.Thanks to the efforts of these people, the stagnant social gears slowly turned again, and a large number of writers, educators and thinkers with real talents emerged, and literature developed to an unprecedented prosperity in this era.
Afterwards, Wen Chunqiu and Xu Weixin went to Qiao Jing's house together.
Unexpectedly, when receiving them, the expressions of Qiao Jing and Yanzhi looked very calm, not as bad as they imagined.This made Wen Chunqiu feel a bit of relief in addition to being sad.
"If you encounter any difficulties, you must come and talk to me." When parting, he told Yan Zhiyu earnestly, "After all, I am now your teacher."
Rouge nodded slightly.Seeing this, Wen Chunqiu couldn't say anything more, he could only sigh, and patted the girl's head.
"The road ahead will depend on yourselves."
After seeing off the two of them, she turned around and looked at Qiao Jing who had been standing silently in the living room since just now.
The two looked at each other, and finally, Rouge spoke first.
"Do you believe what Mr. and the others wrote in their letter?"
Qiao Jing clenched his fists, but he took a deep breath and replied with firm eyes: "I believe it."
Rouge pursed her lips and smiled.Although her eyes still looked very sad.
"I believe it too," she said softly, "No matter what, I believe in Mr. and the others."
Therefore, even if she and Qiao Jing buried them with their own hands, she would still believe what Qiao Jing wrote in the letter. They didn't die, but for some reason, they had to bid farewell to another world in this way.
A future era very different from this one.
However, even if she believed what Qiao Jing and the others said, such a sudden parting still made Rouge toss and turn for several days, making it difficult to sleep.She felt that she was probably spoiled by her husband and the others. She had suffered so much and suffered so many beatings, but she never cried, but every time it was about something related to Qiao Jing, she always couldn't control it. Hold back your tears and cry like a three year old in front of them.
It is said that a crying child has candy to eat, however, there is no one who would bend down to comfort her gently when she cries.
Rouge tried hard to make herself strong again, just like she had shown in front of Wen Chunqiu and Xu Weixin just now.But after sending them away, she suddenly changed back to her original weak and hopeless appearance.
"Do you know," Qiao Jing said suddenly, he looked up at the empty hall, this was the first time he felt that the house was terribly empty, "Master said in the letter, let me take care of you, he and Mr. You have prepared the dowry, and it is up to you to decide who to give it to.”
Rouge murmured, "Why are you talking about this suddenly..."
"I just want to tell you," Qiao Jing stretched out his hand and grabbed her hand firmly, "I will never abandon you whether you want me or not. Sir, they have their own way to go, so they didn't take us with them, Then let's make a career on our own, without taking them to play!"
Rouge smiled through tears: "What nonsense are you talking about, it's like playing a house."
"I am telling the truth!"
Qiao Jing said affirmatively: "With Mr.'s character, even if Master succeeds in confessing, it will take at least a few years before he wants to have a bridal chamber. It's not like us. Let's go get the certificate when we're eighteen—ouch!"
Rouge's face turned red from what he said, and she gritted her teeth and stomped on Qiao Jing viciously: "Bastard! What nonsense are you talking about!"
Hearing the movement from inside the house, a black back who was sleeping peacefully beside the fountain in the courtyard pricked up his ears alertly.
It looked up and found nothing unusual, only a white butterfly fluttered over the flower bed with its wings fluttering.It looked at it for a while, then lazily returned to its original position, closed its eyes and fell asleep in the sun.
