Chapter 713: Untitled
“Chairman Song, you still haven’t heard? Can’t the husband watch if the wife’s competing?”
Chairman Song’s eyes widened upon hearing that. “They are already married?”
He was beyond shock. Their added age was more than a hundred years, but here they were, discussing their subordinate’s private matters.
“They received certification two years ago. Think about how old Helian Niancheng is. It’s reasonable that he got anxious.”
Nian Chusheng didn’t know that Helian Niancheng had such an enormous background. It was only a coincidence that he found out.
After all, on Penalan’s side, they have never officially announced Helian Niancheng’s status.
Coincidentally, Nian Chusheng’s rise in ranks these two years allowed him to understand more things naturally.
“Aiya, youngsters nowadays!”
Chairman Song sighed. He initially wanted to go up to greet Helian Niancheng since, inevitably, he would have to give his status…
…But Helian Niancheng’s expression was that of polite indifference. With that many people around him, Chairman Song wouldn’t be able to squeeze through.
Which was why he just stayed in place.
Helian Niancheng walked towards his designated seat. With a few sentences, he pushed away from the officials who wanted to make small talk. His eyes were deeply focused on the screen in front.
As if having a special connection with Gu Qingjiu, Helian Niancheng spotted her at a go.
Seeing her, his lips seemed to twitch a little.
On Gu Qingjiu’s side, she was currently moving through the forest after randomly selecting a direction. From what she learned about the wilderness, she presumed she was headed towards the centre of the forest.
She believed many competitors would make such a choice as well. The center point would be the place where a fierce fight would erupt.
But the forest was too big. From their speed and the possibility that they would meet other competitors along the way, fighting with them would delay her significantly.
It was the afternoon of the first day. By the time she reached the center, it would probably be nighttime.
At night, other than keeping alert, she had to rest as well. Or else, even if she had an unlimited supply of food and her special training…
Her body function would fall inevitably.
Which would become a great mistake when she faced other players.
She had to maintain her mental strength.
(Rustling)
That was the soft sound which Gu Qingjiu made when she stepped on leaves and grass.
No matter how careful she was in such an environment, it was unavoidable.
Her pacing was neither fast nor slow. She maintained a uniform speed.
Using a general approximation, only ten minutes have passed.
Suddenly, Gu Qingjiu felt a sort of itch at the back of her head, like a special connection.
She turned behind to see a small flying automatic camera hovering in mid-air, making a soft whirring sound that was not loud enough to distract her, but she felt that someone was looking at her through those lenses.
There were many people at the venue, so there would always be someone observing her. Gu Qingjiu didn’t dare to consider the shocking possibility that Helian Niancheng might be said person.
Helian Niancheng watched as Gu Qingjiu turned around to face the camera. The angle of the camera made it look as if Gu Qingjiu made eye contact with him.
The corner of his lips raised with a small smile.
His darling was indeed sensitive.
Gu Qingjiu would definitely win the competition.
He believed in that unconditionally.
