CHAPTER 363: CHAPTER 295: SEIZE EVERY OPPORTUNITY_2

However, the man in front of her said such words that Wu Qing couldn’t possibly turn hostile.

In fact, the moment he gazed deeply into her eyes, Wu Qing completely lost her judgment as a queen, wanting only to trust him.

At this moment, Wu Qing realized she was far too emotional, not a competent queen at all.

She was completely captivated by this man’s charm, but she only wanted to continue sinking deeper, with no desire to escape.

So finally, Wu Qing nodded and resolutely said, "I believe you."

Wen Nan chuckled softly, leaned down, and kissed Wu Qing’s forehead, "Thank you, my queen."

Wu Qing raised her hand to gently wipe the blood from Wen Nan’s lips, realizing only then how disheveled she seemed. She glanced at the nearby bathroom and said:

"The ceremony is tomorrow noon, and before the ceremony, I need to enshrine those civilians. I have to get there early. Tonight, I want to take a bath, clean up, and then meet those people."

Wen Nan nodded.

Wu Qing looked up at him, "Will you stay with me? I feel at ease with you around."

Wen Nan thought she meant escorting her to visit the NPCs, and smiled, "That’s my duty."

Unexpectedly, Wu Qing, upon hearing his words, lowered her head and blushed, "I’m not crowned King Consort yet, so what do you mean by ’duty’?"

Wen Nan was taken aback, about to ask something, when Wu Qing grabbed his hand and pulled him into the bathroom, "Let’s go, time is tight."

Wen Nan only then realized Wu Qing meant bathing, not visiting the people?

He looked up at the ceiling, faintly feeling that the crystal chandelier on it seemed to form a face, staring straight at him.

"No, right now this room might not be convenient..."

"What’s inconvenient? It’s fine here, everything is clean and fully equipped."

Saying this, Wu Qing pulled Wen Nan along and hurried into the bathroom.

...

...

Four hours later, the sky fell into the darkest phase before dawn, yet darker were Yu Shujun’s expressions.

When Wen Nan finally emerged from the couple’s hotel, Wu Qing and Guan Ailin followed, their faces flushed redder than each other’s.

The people by the blood donation van immediately emerged with a sense of relief on their faces.

"President, what’s the plan next?" Hu Jiayao was the first to ask, unable to hold back.

Wen Nan looked toward Wu Qing, who briefly explained that she needed to meet with the group of NPCs before leading everyone to the designated location for the ceremony.

The others naturally had no objections.

The biggest traitor in this map was already gone, and the evil faction was now like a scattered mob. As the justice faction, they only needed to stick together and ensure the ceremony was completed smoothly tomorrow to finish this instance.

Thinking this, the group crossed most of the campus and arrived at the graduate dormitories, where Wu Qing had settled that batch of NPCs.

While Wu Qing held a meeting with the NPCs in the dormitory, Wen Nan and Yu Shujun leaned side by side against the railing outside.

Wen Nan felt an icy aura from the person next to him, almost freezing the floor they stood on. He was just about to ask when he heard Yu Shujun speak coldly:

"You really know how to seize the opportunity, Master."

Wen Nan chuckled, "The stabilizing bead?"

Yu Shujun ignored his joke, unsure if she didn’t want to respond or simply didn’t understand what the stabilizing bead was.

Wen Nan shrugged and didn’t continue the topic, taking something from his pocket and slipping it into Yu Shujun’s hand.

Yu Shujun lowered her eyes to see in her palm a small box resembling lipstick, with a small crown printed on it, "This is..."

"Wu Qing gave it to me in the hotel just now," Wen Nan said.

Yu Shujun raised her hand, about to open the box, but Wen Nan pressed it back down, "Don’t open it yet, keep it for tomorrow’s ceremony."

Yu Shujun frowned, glanced at Wen Nan, paused for a moment, and finally kept it without opening or asking further, "Understood, Master."

Bang!

A muffled sound came from the dormitory, like something heavy had fallen from above, immediately followed by an NPC’s scream: "Someone jumped! Someone jumped off!"

Wen Nan and Yu Shujun exchanged a glance, then pushed through the crowd into the packed room, making their way to the window to look outside, indeed seeing someone face down on the ground with blood everywhere.

"What happened?"

"Why would someone suddenly jump?"

"Was it an accident? Did they fall accidentally?"

The crowd descended into chaos. Wen Nan vaguely sensed something was wrong, withdrew his gaze from the window, and searched the room for Wu Qing’s figure.

His eyes met Wu Qing’s in the corner, and she smiled and shook her head at him, "I’m fine—"

Before she finished her sentence, a figure lunged in from the door, heading straight for her.

Closest to them, Yin Zhi’en anxiously rushed forward, and the three became entangled together, falling to the ground simultaneously.

Before they hit the floor, a flash of golden light appeared, securely catching them, and in the next moment, the three were separated, with Wu Qing delivered safely to Wen Nan’s side, while the intruder was pinned against the wall by Yu Shujun, unable to move.

The person struggled violently under Yu Shujun’s grasp, "Why are you grabbing me? Let go, ah..."

Only half a sentence was shouted before a heavy object from the window struck him, knocking him out.

Yu Shujun released her grip, and he collapsed against the corner.

Suddenly turning her head, Yu Shujun looked in the direction the heavy object had come from, seeing a figure rapidly retreating from the window.

Leaping out the window, Yu Shujun pursued the figure.

Wen Nan glanced at the direction Yu Shujun disappeared, then led Wu Qing forward to see Li Fang fainted against the wall.

Wen Nan squatted down, checked on Li Fang, then turned to Mo Yu, "Li Fang is the young master, right?"

Mo Yu paused.

Now that Wei Zhe was out of the picture, Mo Yu no longer held the obligation to keep his secrets. On the contrary, due to the temporary control graphic, Mo Yu couldn’t conceal anything from Wen Nan.

So, she nodded, "Yes, although she was unwilling, out of duty, she was compelled to work for that boss."

Wen Nan asked further, "Besides Wei Zhe, are there any other traitors?"

Mo Yu shook her head, "I-I don’t know, the boss never let me contact others, I only handled the tasks he assigned."

Wen Nan nodded, asking no more.

Hu Jiayao caught the hint in Wen Nan’s inquiry, feeling clever for once, and said solemnly, "President, could there be more undiscovered traitors in this map? Should we clear it now and root them out?"

Wen Nan looked at the sky, now bright, seemingly worried about the time.

"The ceremony starts at twelve; we have at least five hours. Yang Mingzhong is so skilled at clearing maps; we might still make it!" Hu Jiayao argued.

Yin Zhi’en softly reminded, "But the seniors mentioned earlier that we need to enshrine these NPCs before the ceremony."

Wu Qing also added, "Enshrining takes a long time. We probably need to head over quickly."

At this moment, Yu Shujun returned, carrying a boy—Zhou Shijie.

Throwing him to the ground, Yu Shujun pressed her blade against his neck, terrifying Zhou Shijie into speaking shakily, "D-Don’t, don’t kill me! I didn’t mean to knock Li Fang out, the big boss told me to do it!"

"Big boss? Wei Zhe?"

"N-No, it’s another big boss."

"Another big boss? Who is it?"

"I-I don’t know either, he’s never shown his face, only assigning tasks from the hideout. Please don’t kill me, I-I can take you to the hideout, to meet him!"
