Chapter 412: Chapter 292: Eliminating Live-In Son-in-Law Slots_3

Perhaps this way one could live better.

Some people abide by the law, yet suffer through poor and difficult days, often bullied.

Despite never having done anything to harm themselves or others, they must bear all the hardships.

On the other hand, those who commit heinous acts and deceive their way through are the ones who live well; when conflicts arise, they are seldom the ones who suffer.

Because sometimes, those in charge wish to make the law-abiding people suffer.

After all, they keep to themselves and won’t cause trouble.

If they do cause trouble, then they are deemed troublesome and incapable of ameliorating situations.

Unnecessarily exacerbating conflicts.

For the sake of peace and stability, those who forever remain silent are the ones sacrificed.

If one day they raise their voices, then it becomes their fault.

Others who refuse to be sacrificed will blame them.

Only by becoming someone who has others sacrifice for them can one truly live better.

Gu An didn’t want to be the one sacrificed, hence he would make the one forcing him to sacrifice, the sacrificial person.

At the end of June.

Those three were already taking action, some targeting him, others targeting other spies.

On this day, Shang Huo called upon Zhang Qing again.

Upon seeing her arrive, the people of First Institute joked, saying Shang Huo’s sister had come.

Shang Huo, bowing his head, hurriedly explained to avoid any misunderstandings.

The others, laughing, nodded, not believing a word.

Pang Wen, looking at the contemplative Shu Ci, asked, “What is Junior Sister Shu thinking about?”

“It just feels a bit strange.” Shu Ci replied, “This senior sister has a not insignificant cultivation level; how could she take a liking to Junior Brother Shang?”

“Perhaps because he works in First Institute?” suggested Pang Wen.

Hearing this, Shu Ci nodded, feeling it indeed possible.

Working here offered limitless prospects.

At this moment, Shang Huo and Zhang Qing were walking on the road.

Zhang Qing moved with a graceful lightness, standing as if a slender willow swaying in the breeze, embodying both a delicate and tenacious appearance.

Clad in light blue, her complexion appeared as smooth as jade, serene as a maiden.

As she walked, her skirt gently swayed, displaying an effortless elegance.

Looking at her, Shang Huo felt she was out of his reach.

As if he couldn’t possibly match her.

Bowling his head, he dared not harbor any extra thoughts.

“Has Junior Brother Shang’s cultivation been going smoothly lately?” Zhang Qing asked with a smile.

“Smoothly,” Shang Huo replied.

Hearing this, Zhang Qing smiled, her eyebrows arched, “I’m envious of Junior Brother, mine is quite different.”

Hearing this, Shang Huo, somewhat surprised, asked, “Is Senior Sister’s cultivation not going well?”

“It’s just… hard to say.”

“Can I lend a hand?”

Hearing this, Zhang Qing looked sideways, tilting her head, “Would Junior Brother help me? Perhaps not, I might be embarrassed to say it aloud, where would I hide then? Surely I can’t hide in Junior Brother’s arms?”

Upon hearing this, Shang Huo felt slightly bewildered, then seriously said, “Senior Sister can share, I won’t laugh at Senior Sister, perhaps I could help.”

“Shall I say it?” Zhang Qing seemed to muster courage, “But, Junior Brother, please don’t laugh at me.”

Shang Huo nodded vigorously.

“I’m about to advance my cultivation level, but my cultivation technique is incomplete, needing to buy it costs sixty thousand spirit stones, sixty thousand! I have saved up for many years and have only thirty thousand, it seems I won’t be able to advance.”

“I have some spirit stones, but not many,” Shang Huo said, bowing his head, somewhat embarrassed, “I’m afraid I can’t help Senior Sister much.”

“Junior Brother is willing to help me?”

“Of course! I just don’t have many spirit stones.”

“Even a little is enough; I certainly can’t ask Junior Brother to borrow from fellow disciples, can I? It would be too embarrassing.”

“Borrow spirit stones?”

Shang Huo thought deeply for a moment, then shook his head, “They seem to be at a critical point in their cultivation as well and do not have spirit stones, but I don’t mind, had it not been for Senior Sister back then, I couldn’t have entered the Inner Sect, this is what I should do.”

Hearing this, a hint of disdain flashed across Zhang Qing’s eyes, seemingly surprised that the other party wouldn’t borrow, despite having played such a long act for it.

In the end, she borrowed five thousand spirit stones from Shang Huo.

In secret, Gu An was stunned to see the five thousand spirit stones.

Perfect Foundation Establishment and still has five thousand spirit stones?

Zhang Qing too was surprised, but ultimately, she left with a smile.

Thus, Shang Huo breathed a sigh of relief as he headed back.

However, on the way, he ran into the team leader.

Gu An looked at the person before him, feeling that there was no additional sentiment involved, seemingly only driven by gratitude.

Nevertheless, it was time to reveal the true face to him.

At the end of June, the spying task should come to an end.

Before their complete mobilization, put an end to everything.
