Without trying to stop Xilin again, Ning Feng squinted and waited in place for her answer.

Ning Feng awaited Xilin's reply to decide how to treat her in the future.

Is she really a woman Ning Feng should pursue?

Or is it an unreasonable entity that should be avoided as soon as possible?

He was waiting for an answer.

He wasn't a simp; if he wasn't that important to her, there was no need for him to fawn over her.

Things shouldn't have been this way.

They should have gradually opened up to each other through time, and then slowly revealed their special qualities...

But this unexpected event has brought everything forward, to a point that neither of them can accept.

The difference in strength and status that the two had deliberately ignored was ruthlessly revealed by reality.

Ning Feng could tell that Xilin had her own reasons for not being able to tell him.

But he also knew very well that he had to go now.

In order to achieve this goal, he did not hesitate to force Shirin to make a choice.

At the very least, you should tell yourself the reasons.

With her back to Ning Feng, Xilin closed her eyes and whispered:

"What if... I said yes?"

"Even if it stops me, I have to go."

It wasn't acting; Ning Feng wasn't trying to create a persona for Xi Lin. His emotions were completely undisguised.

The aura of depravity on his body vanished in an instant, and he erupted with a frenzied madness that devoured people. No one would doubt his determination at this moment!

Silently, she took another deep breath, then abruptly opened her eyes and shouted irritably:

"Ahhhhh!!!"

"Ugh... This is so annoying! I'm done!"

Suddenly turning around, Xilin waved her hand at Ning Feng, and a two-meter-wide dimensional rift was directly torn open in the void behind him, instantly sucking him in and making him disappear.

"You still say it's not a misunderstanding! And you even yelled at me!"

Taking advantage of the fact that you bullied me before, how dare you yell at me!

"Don't I want to go?! This is so annoying!"

Xilin gritted her teeth, glaring fiercely at Ning Feng's bewildered expression just before he disappeared, a hint of amusement creeping into her heart.

"Fine, since it's already against the rules, I'm going anyway!"

Shirin reached out again to try and create space, but strangely nothing happened.

Her face instantly darkened. She squinted, looking around until she found a secluded spot, and asked:

"You're still stopping me now? Why didn't you stop him earlier?"

Even though there was no one there, Shirin put on a listening expression, her brows furrowing even deeper.

Xilin's expression grew increasingly grim, her hands clenched so tightly that her knuckles turned white.

"Because he was one of them, and I wasn't?"

"........."

The expression on Xilin's face vanished in an instant. She closed her eyes and exhaled a long breath.

call……

With her eyes closed, not wanting to see the other person's face, she spoke softly:

"Although if I really want to go, given your current state, you can't stop me."

The other person remained silent, realizing that Xilin's words were neither a lie nor a threat, but simply a statement of fact.

"But out of trust in our shared ideals and out of care you've given me over the years, I choose to believe you this time."

"I...will not take action."

Her eyes snapped open, and Shirin's expression was serious and cold, devoid of any hint of jest.

"I don't care what crazy plans you have."

"Whether it's the 'Observed' project or the 'Observer' project, it doesn't matter who's backing you..."

she says:

"He is mine."

“If he has any problems... I will absolutely not let it go.”

Humph.

With a snort, Shirin added:

"Moreover, I demand an explanation for this matter."

"An explanation that satisfies me."

An angry burst of magic erupted in the air with a deafening roar, and Shirin vanished from the sky.

It awakened a large number of ordinary people who had fallen asleep.

They got out of bed and looked out the window, but saw nothing unusual.

It was as if nothing had happened.

Chapter 71 Who is he?

"it is good!!!"

"Very good!!!"

"It's connected! It's connected!"

"Alas!!!"

A frenzy of cheers erupted in the command hall, and all the commanding officers breathed a sigh of relief.

Even though the situation had been brought under control after calming down, everyone still felt a little uneasy about not being able to contact headquarters.

It's like being out and about with only mobile data; you can use it, but you still feel uneasy without Wi-Fi.

Yan Rulong was naturally not among those cheering.

He also needs to maintain his tough-guy persona.

However, a faint smile appeared on his lips even when he had his back to everyone.

Great.

"drop."

The smile froze at the corners of his mouth, Yan Rulong's expression stiffened for a moment, then he silently raised his wrist and saw the message on it.

"..."

With a calm expression, Yan Rulong turned around, nodded to the group leaders, and then walked out the door without looking back.

bang.

The moment he stepped out the door, the entire hall fell silent.

These people seemed to be lost in their excitement, but each of them was subconsciously staring at Yan Rulong, afraid that he would suddenly announce that everyone would have to retake the exam.

popping.

The leader of Group A clapped his hands, drawing everyone's attention, and then coughed lightly:

"Commander Yan has left now, but everyone remembers what he said, right?"

silence.

Ninety percent of the people fell into a silent slumber, looking at him with sorrowful eyes.

I'm so happy right now, why do you have to bring that up now?

Are you deliberately picking a fight?

Faced with these gazes, the leader of Group A was not surprised, but instead earnestly explained:

"Our performance before wasn't even good enough to brag about, so what we need to do now is something you can all guess, right?"

"That's right, that means we should unleash our true strength and finish everything before he returns!"

Yes!

If we don't seize this last chance to make amends and redeem ourselves, are we going to wait for the reckoning later?

"What are you all waiting for?!"

"Get moving!"

Kara kara...

The hall was filled with the sounds of chairs being pulled out and people sitting down; all the commanding officers were returning to the final wrap-up work with the utmost enthusiasm.

All of this was done so that I could better help and save my colleagues.

It's not that I'm afraid Yan Rulong will be executed in the autumn...

Really!

Meanwhile, on the other hand, Yan Rulong, who appeared calm on the surface, had a flame slowly burning inside.

"It's true that you're the branch manager, and it's also true that you're the most capable."

"But you can't just leave us to solve our own problems every time something goes wrong!"

"You show up after everything's over, what does that mean?"

Once such thoughts arise, they cannot be eliminated.
