Chapter 726 - 20: Malice (Part 2)
In some ways, we have to thank them for this.
Lamar Aihai thought about this and finally allowed a smile to spread across his face and laughed out loud.
"Cardinal Lamar..."
On the other side.
After pledging his loyalty, Park Haoyu spoke again.
The most frightening thing for people is acceptance.
Once accepted.
All previous worries and hesitations instantly dissipate.
At this moment.
Park Haoyu found himself in such a state.
When he saw the two bishops’ heads, he accepted it.
The initial worries vanished like smoke.
Meanwhile, the weight of the promises made by Lamar Aihai began to increase.
It’s as if the moment you accept reality.
Those promises seem to become real.
"Hm?"
Lamar Aihai looked back at Park Haoyu.
Park Haoyu’s face showed a fawning expression: "What do you plan to do?"
"It’s very simple."
Lamar Aihai slowly raised his right hand, the holy aura wafting around, as he said playfully: "You just need to do as I require.
Didn’t you just say? The imperial authority on the mainstream side has already collapsed, meaning no one can stop you.
You just need to be obedient, and then boldly act... and you can give Celestial Strategy Mansion a huge surprise."
...
Imperial Capital.
A Security Army district.
After a long silence.
Ji Xin sighed and looked back at Chen Lusi’s sharply defined face: "Sorry, I can’t give you an answer right away, because the matters involved between countries are too numerous.
On the other hand, I also don’t want you to take risks, with you using the Tai’e Sword of the Emperor Shi to influence the Yellow Springs... I’m not sure if it will lead to some outcomes I can’t accept, so I need to reconsider and make a cautious decision."
"Hm."
Chen Lusi thought for a moment and nodded.
He wasn’t surprised.
After all, this matter is indeed not small.
The most important thing is.
Emperor Shi is still out on his tour.
After all, this Tai’e Sword is his sword.
And what purpose he entrusted it to Chen Lusi for is.
Chen Lusi also does not know, so it’s understandable that Ji Xin is a bit cautious.
"I will have the intelligence personnel in Goryeo quickly find out the purpose of the Roman Catholic Church."
Ji Xin continued: "Regarding Emperor Shi, I will also try to see him after his tour... as for you, rest for now, it’s been exhausting recently, going straight to the First Emperor’s Mausoleum after the public prosecution.
Take a few days off, I’ll update you as soon as there are any developments in the relevant matters."
"Alright."
Chen Lusi nodded, then hesitated for a moment, stretching lazily.
Indeed.
This kind of thing can’t be rushed, and matters like the Emperor Shi’s tour and the Goddess of Longevity are even more so.
Since Lin Wan started school, he’s only seen her once.
He doesn’t even know how she’s been.
Since most things can’t be rushed, maybe he can take a few days off?
Ji Xin looked at Chen Lusi stretching, paused in silence, and gave her evaluation: "Rare..."
"I’m also human."
Chen Lusi knew what she was implying, placing the Tai’e Sword to the side.
Ji Xin softly replied: "There was a time it didn’t seem like it."
Chen Lusi, curious about her words, asked: "Then what was I like, a dog?"
"Hm, but that’s just one side, more of it..."
Ji Xin nodded softly, thinking for a while before continuing: "More of it is emptiness."
"Emptiness?"
Chen Lusi thought back to his past self at the words, paused in thought, and shook his head: "Perhaps so."
Having said that.
He picked up the Tai’e again, softly saying: "Let’s go."
They had said all they needed to say.
Now it was time to leave.
"Hmm..."
Ji Xin responded, then glanced at Chen Lusi, suddenly saying: "But won’t you squeeze it again?"
Chen Lusi paused: "Hm? Squeeze what?"
"My thighs."
Ji Xin tilted her head: "I thought you would check again, after all, I heard you like my thighs."
Chen Lusi looked helpless: "Who said that?"
"Tang Language."
Chen Lusi sighed: "I knew it."
"Not denying it means? That’s quite surprising..."
Ji Xin’s fair cheeks showed a faint, hard-to-detect mischief: "By the way, if I say that although I can’t move, I can still feel things, would that change anything?"
"It’s not that I’m not denying it..."
Chen Lusi instinctively started to refute but quickly noticed the mischief on Ji Xin’s face, and sighed.
Then.
He stood up, walked behind Ji Xin, and pushed her wheelchair out, giving the same reply: "Rare... I found out that you, too, aren’t as indifferent as you seem, actually quite naughty."
"Is that so?"
Ji Xin slightly turned her head.
Chen Lusi nodded: "Hm, I bet Shanli often gets teased by you, right?"
"Do you think someone as big and strong as her could be bullied by someone disabled like me?"
Ji Xin answered: "I’m the one being bullied, the weaker one."
"Is that so? Hard to imagine."
Chen Lusi pushed her away from the restricted area, casually asking: "For example?"
"For example, she would always use things she’s better at to humiliate me."
Ji Xin replied: "And she does it seamlessly, leaving me with nothing to say."
"..."
Upon hearing this, Chen Lusi was greatly shocked but then shook his head, choosing not to pursue the topic further.
After all, probing into the private lives of two young girls didn’t feel right.
Chen Lusi changed the subject: "So you’re the older sister?"
Ji Xin looked forward, smiling lightly: "She is."
"I see."
Chen Lusi nodded, not saying more.
Ji Xin felt the wheelchair moving and the light breathing from behind.
She no longer sat straight but leaned back comfortably against the chair.
