Chapter 747 Emergency Situation
Chapter 747 Emergency Situation
Bai Wanwan was already used to being the center of attention wherever she went.
After a brief eye contact and a nod with Lu Yao, she naturally looked away, as if it were just an ordinary chance encounter.
She chose a seat by the window, where sunlight streamed through the glass and slanted across the wooden tabletop, casting warm dappled patterns.
She lowered her voice and turned to discuss ordering food with Zhu Xiu and Yin Ze beside her. The three of them looked particularly close in the halo of light.
“I told you, the food in this world is delicious, right?” Bai Wanwan rested her chin on her hand, her eyes sparkling.
Yin Ze's gaze fell on her face, her sharp features softened by the sunlight.
“Indeed,” he said in a low voice, “Wanwan’s hometown…is a magical place.”
Every detail challenges his past understanding.
The night was almost devoid of flames yet as bright as day; there were moving iron boxes and small objects that could communicate across thousands of miles... Everything here stirred up silent waves in his heart.
"We didn't bring Jin Yi and the others this time. We'll stay for two days and then go back. What do you guys think?" Bai Wanwan flipped through the menu, her tone casual.
Zhu Xiu paused slightly as he browsed the menu.
He had hoped to spend more time with her in this new and exciting world, slowly exploring every street she had mentioned.
"Don't you want to stay a little longer?" He looked up, his gaze as deep as a still pool.
Bai Wanwan chuckled, then affectionately took his arm and rested her chin on his shoulder.
"No need, I'm afraid Jin Yi and the others will worry. Let's go back early, and we'll come together next time, okay?"
The faint fragrance of her hair lingered around him. Although Zhu Xiu selfishly wanted to have her all to himself for a while longer, he still compromised to respect her wishes.
“Okay, I’ll do as you say.” He put down the menu and gently brushed the stray hairs behind her ear with his fingers. “But no matter where we go, I’ll be by your side.”
Bai Wanwan's eyebrows curved into a smile. "Okay."
The food was ordered quickly.
While waiting, she stood up and straightened her skirt. "I'm going to the restroom."
Almost simultaneously, Yin Ze stood up and said, "I'll go with you."
Despite Bai Wanwan's repeated assurances that the place was safe, they still couldn't completely trust her to leave their sight.
Bai Wanwan said no more, letting that protection follow her like a shadow.
As they walked through the restaurant, Yin Ze naturally took her hand.
The palm was warm, and the pressure was steady.
“Next time,” he suddenly stopped, his gaze fixed intently on her, “take me with you too.” It wasn’t a question; he needed a definite promise.
Bai Wanwan chuckled, looked up at his handsome yet stubborn eyes, and coaxed him in a soft voice, "Okay, okay, take them all, not one will be left out."
After saying that, she tiptoed and quickly kissed his cheek, as light as a butterfly's touch. "When have I ever stopped you from coming with me?"
Yin Ze's lips curled into a barely perceptible smile as he gripped her hand even tighter.
This intimate scene was witnessed by Lu Yao, who was watching from a distance, intentionally or unintentionally.
Her fingers, which were holding the water glass, stiffened slightly.
what happened?
Just now at the table, Bai Wanwan was clearly whispering to the composed man in black, their posture intimate like that of lovers.
How come in the blink of an eye, she's holding hands with another handsome man and even kissing him in public?
Lu Yao felt a little confused, but what she found even more unbelievable was yet to come.
During the meal, she secretly observed the interaction between the three people at that table.
Bai Wanwan would sometimes serve food to the man in black, and sometimes listen attentively to another man's conversation, her eyes sparkling with a smile. Though there was nothing excessive about it, the familiarity and intimacy that flowed between her in her eyes and gestures were something that ordinary people could not possibly have.
When the dessert was served, Bai Wanwan scooped up a spoonful of ice cream and put it in her mouth, leaving a milky white mark on her lips.
She suddenly smiled sweetly, leaned forward, and gently pressed her cool, sweet lips to Yin Ze's in front of the man in black.
"Hmm, it's vanilla flavored, you should try it too."
Yin Ze was slightly taken aback, then a glint of indulgence spread across his eyes.
Lu Yao subconsciously raised her hand to cover her mouth, her fingertips icy cold.
This...what exactly is going on?
"Lu Yao?" Her colleague's voice pulled her back to reality. "I know those guests are good-looking, but you didn't forget to eat because you were looking at them so much, did you?"
Lu Yao's ears were ringing, and she could barely hear her colleagues' teasing.
Is there a love triangle between them?
And it was done so openly and naturally that the two men seemed to take it for granted.
Just as she was filled with astonishment, a pair of deep, cold eyes suddenly swept over her.
Lu Yao gasped, feeling as if she were being stared at by a giant venomous snake, and instinctively lowered her head.
The meal ended quickly. After paying the bill, Bai Wanwan, accompanied by Yin Ze and Zhu Xiu, strolled slowly home along the riverside promenade.
A gentle breeze from the river caresses the face, carrying the city's unique scent, a mixture of moisture and subtle floral fragrance.
Bai Wanwan enthusiastically pointed to the brightly lit area on the opposite bank and introduced it to them.
Her eyes suddenly lit up. "How about we spend two days visiting nearby attractions before we go back, and then head back?"
The two beastmen naturally had no objections; as long as Wanwan was happy, they would have no problem with where she went.
In the mouths of the Wanwan people, the Beast World is their home, the place they should return to.
The two males felt pleased and nodded in agreement: "As you wish."
As dusk settled, the three of them entered the gate of the residential compound.
The peaceful and tranquil dusk was suddenly shattered, with screams, cries, and the sounds of things breaking all mixed together.
A man, seemingly insane, brandished a gleaming knife, rampaging through the green belt and paths. People were already injured and lying on the ground, their blood a shocking sight in the afterglow of the setting sun.
In the chaos, the madman's arm suddenly grabbed the neck of a panicked girl who was trying to escape.
"I'll kill you all, I'll kill you all!" The man's face was contorted with rage, and his knife was dripping with blood.
She had seen many such scenes in the beast world, but this was a society governed by law, and in the previous twenty years, she had hardly ever seen anything like it.
The one being held back by that madman was Lu Yao, who had just returned from dinner.
The cold blade pressed tightly against her skin, leaving a thin trail of blood.
She looked sadly at the people scattering around her, pleading, "Save me, please save me."
Instinct urged Bai Wanwan to avoid the danger and immediately take Zhu Xiu and Yin Ze away from this place of trouble, since they did not have legal status.
However, when his gaze swept over the little girl on the ground, clutching her bleeding arm and crying her heart out, and the young mother who was trying desperately to protect her child but was also injured herself...
"Mom, are you in pain?"
The child's innocent words made Bai Wanwan stop in her tracks.
