Zhan Long

Chapter 1348: Not willing to think about the future

The hotel was in a mess but very quickly, the police led by Wang Xin and Sun Xiang appeared and controlled the scene. Seeing the special forces appear, the guests were shocked. Fang Ge Que, Yan Zhao Warrior, Drunken Spear etc had only heard of Artificials but personally seeing someone they knew die in a monster form, was truly shocking.

……

I sat on the ground and the wound gave off a fiery pain. I used Blazing Sun Energy to heal myself while looking at Song Han and Old K, “Wolf, Old K, are you two okay?”

Song Han held his broken arm and smiled, “Brother Xiao Yao we are fine, we can jump around.”

Old K was sweating from the pain but he still smiled stubbornly, “Right, I can’t die, don’t worry about us, what about you?”

“Me?”

I grabbed the broken Butterfly and smiled, “I am fine too.”

Lin Wan Er broke free from the guard of the few bodyguards and ran to my side. She looked at the bloody wound on my shoulder and chest. Tears flowed down and she cried, “Are you always happy to make yourself injured, dummy… Big dummy!”

Energy surged and I couldn’t help but shudder, “I am fine, aren’t I? Wan Er don’t cry, don’t mess up the makeup then you won’t look good. As a guy who cares about appearance, I don’t hope for my fiancee to be in smudge makeup. Quick, stop crying, er… Don’t get too close, the blood will dirty your shirt.”

She didn’t say anything but she hugged me and cried. She said softly, “I know that you don’t belong to yourself, but you… You can’t let me be a widow, it makes no sense!”

I laughed and hugged her, “It is fine, so many people are looking. If you want to hug we can wait until we go home. If we show off people will be envious and jealous.”

Wan Er’s face flushed red and left my hug. Her nose twitched, “The place is now like this, the engagement can’t continue right?”

“This…” I raised my head to look at the old man and Lin Tiannan.

The old man was wrapping wounds and said, “I don’t care, I came to drink engagement wine, scoff. Now my wound even opened up!”

Lin Tiannan laughed, “That is okay, it can continue. Head to the 6th floor, I have booked both 6 and 7.”

Mu Xuan exclaimed, “It is so good to be rich…”

Fang Ge Que sat in the wheelchair and said, “Xiao Yao are you okay?”

“En, no worries.”

I nodded my head gratefully and looked behind me, “Tang Qi and Q-Sword are you two okay?”

Tang Qi held a blade with poison and looked around carefully, “No worries, but these A Grade Artificials really are strong, even the energy spiral can’t block their claws.”

Although Q-Sword was covered in blood but it wasn’t his. He took off his white jacket and said, “Luckily I brought one more, if not I can’t continue to attend your engagement ceremony.”

……

Thus, the engagement ceremony shifted to the 6th floor.

I turned back to look at Wang Zecheng’s corpse and he was indeed dead. Even if their tech was good he couldn’t revive right?

Wang Xin ordered people to move his corpse down and place it in a black coffin. Thinking back to how glorious his appearance was, he came in a suit proudly from his overseas education. Who knew that he would end up like this? He asked for it.

Song Han and Old K fixed their injuries. Before we came we arranged many medical personnel here. Their bones were broken and the medics attached them to iron boards and requested them to rest right away. But Song Han said, “My Brother is having his engagement how can I miss it”, so there was nothing we could do. No choice, we could only let Mocha and Furious Milk who were more caring to sit next to them and take care of them. Fortunately, they were all on our own side, if not, Old K was so ugly so which girl would be willing to sit with him?

The engagement ceremony proceeded upstairs. The hotel didn’t plan to receive anyone else and it was on guard. The police and army sent over 2000 people to guard around. Wan Er and my wedding received such treatment and that was such an amazing thing. Moreover, Tianjin Corporation even prepared hundreds of cars downstairs. It was luxurious but it was once life and they weren’t spending my own money so it didn’t matter.

At the ceremony, I drank wine with Wan Er.

Mu Xuan, Simple and Jian Feng Han were cheering and stirring trouble, especially Drunken Spear. He shouted, “Xiao Yao and Wan Er aren’t going to show their love? Kiss for us how about that? What does everyone think?”

Everyone clapped their hands and even Fang Ge Que who was usually solemn and serious smiled, “Support!”

Lin Tiannan sat beside his daughter and didn’t say anything. This ceremony was an enjoyment to him. Giving his daughter’s happiness to a guy he could trust and someone that she loved, was something that every father loved.

No choice, I looked at Wan Er and said, “Come?”

“Come!” Her face was red but she still tiptoed and closed her eyes.

I lowered my head to kiss but with so many people looking, I didn’t dare to kiss too deeply. I did a light peck but it still didn’t escape the lights.

Everyone clapped and I said, “It is about 1, everyone should be hungry so let’s eat and drink. I will come table by table later.”

Q-Sword and Tang Qi all said that they would wait before they sat down.

I helped Wan Er down before turning around. Wang Xin’s shoulder had a shining golden star. Who knew that he had already been promoted?

Actually, the guardian base was a special team made by the police and army. It was no surprise that he would join the army.

“Congratulations Captain Wang, that rank looks good.” I laughed.

“Do you want? You can too.” He smiled, “As long as you are willing to do the boring stuff. With your ability and merit, this is the least you can get.”

I said, “Stop joking, has the results been out?”

“En.” He nodded, “A total of 57 Artificials have joined this sneak attack, all of them have been captured. 54 were killed and 3 have been taken down. We lost a few, 2 died, 24 injured, 7 of them were bad. This is quite a successful operation.”

When I heard that someone died, my heart sank. This was a plan that we had planned and we sent 10 times more people than before. But in the end, there were still 2 deaths.

“Don’t think too much.” He tapped my shoulder, “It is your big day but it ended up like this. I feel guilty but this time we officially cleared the Artificials in the southeast region.”

He lowered his voice, “At least we don’t have to worry in the near future. How are you injuries?”

“I am okay.”

I looked at him and said, “Go call Axe and Xing Lie over, it has been tough on them. Let the others stand guard.”

“En.”

Wang Xin smiled, “Don’t worry, there are no Artificials in Hangzhou anymore, enjoy your engagement ceremony. There might be more things that need you to worry about.”

I frowned and didn’t ask.

I looked at Wan Er and she was so beautiful that I felt drunk. I really wanted to spend my entire life with her so I didn’t want to know what Wang Xin wanted to say. I just smiled, “Do what you want Captain, find a table to eat.”

“En.”

Wang Xin turned around. He didn’t have time to sit and drink. Since he got the rank, he had to take on responsibilities that others weren’t willing to take on.

……

After sitting down, I noticed that Dong Cheng Yue was on my right. I looked at her and didn’t say anything. I just poured some wine and passed it to her, “Dong Cheng, let’s drink?”

Dong Cheng Yue looked at me in shock but when she saw my gaze, she smiled. She raised half a cup of red wine and drank it all.

“Such good tolerance!” Li Mu laughed, “One more!”

Dong Cheng Yue poured another and drank with Li Mu.

Dong Cheng Feng frowned but didn’t stop her. He knew that she didn’t feel good.

Auntie sat there and didn’t know what happened. Meng Yao said something to her and she smiled too.

……

After a round, I held Wan Er’s hand to head to other tables. I used Blazing Sun Energy to destroy the alcohol in my body. If I didn’t want to get drunk, no one could make me.

“Uncle Yan Zhao, seems like you aren’t so old, you are so young.” I smiled.

He drank a cup of white wine, “That is enough for me to drink it all.”

I laughed, “From today on I won’t care much about Tian Ling City army matters, it will be down to you. Good luck!”

He was shocked, “You pushed for me?”

“Right, I pushed you to be the next Executor.”

“Thank you!” He thanked solemnly before putting down the wine glass and cupping his fists like in game, “General Zhao Kai Guo thanks Marshal Li!”

“Pu…”

Wan Er, Dong Cheng, Mu Xuan, Simple etc girls laughed.
