Little White Wolf beamed with sunshine all over his face, smiling, "Luo Bro must have something important to do in seclusion. We'll know once he's out."
He's been very happy these past few days, getting what he wished for made him a lot more cheerful.
"Tsk, you're such a die-hard fan of that bastard, always siding with him. I shouldn't have asked you," Nangong Hanhan scolded and turned to Liu Qingqing, "Sis Qingqing, what do you think he's up to?"
Liu Qingqing, expressionless, said, "Boring, just mind your own business!" With that, she ignored her, continuously releasing thorny vines at a moving target, entangling and destroying. She trained very hard, always exhausting herself before resting.
"Yeah, Sis Hanhan, Sis Qingqing is right. I really envy your superpower, you don't even have to train hard," Little Wolf said with a smile, picking up a piece of the thorny vine Liu Qingqing released, slicing it on his arm.
Nangong Hanhan lightly tapped his head and said, "You talk too much, kid. It's not like I slack off. You think everyone is as bloody as you."
Hearing Nangong Hanhan's words, Little Wolf couldn't help but fall silent.
Nangong Hanhan quickly comforted him, "Okay, Little Wolf, don't be upset. Since that bastard accepted you, he'll definitely be responsible for you. Your matters are all on him."
"Hey, hey, hey. Don't badmouth me behind my back when I'm not around, alright? You know how sharp my ears are," Luo Chao walked over, looking exhausted. Though his clothes were very neat and clean, his expression couldn't hide his fatigue.
Nangong Hanhan, seeing Luo Chao like this, opened her cherry-like mouth in surprise, "What did you do to become so weak? You wouldn't be sick, right?"
Luo Chao was even more headache by this; this little brat never had anything good to say.
"I prepared some things to get ready for future missions," Luo Chao sighed wearily.
"Little Wolf, come with me. I'll take you to Zhao Hanxue," Luo Chao beckoned Little Wolf, planning to get some superpower potions.
"Oh, oh." Little Wolf responded, quickly tidying up a bit, and followed behind Luo Chao.
They arrived at the lab where Luo Chao had tested last time, and sure enough, Zhao Hanxue was inside, busy as usual, dressed in a white lab coat. This made Luo Chao imagine how seductive a scene it would be if Zhao Hanxue were wearing a camisole with stockings and a short skirt.
"Hey! Gorgeous, busy?" Luo Chao walked in, unceremoniously found a seat, and sat down, with Little Wolf standing behind him. He crossed his legs, looking arrogant.
"It's you, the one I'm yet to settle accounts with, and you daringly came to court death," Zhao Hanxue was a bit gnawing at the roots of her teeth seeing him. Last time, he groped her in public, ruining her image. If there weren't so many people, she would have fought him to the death.
Luo Chao laughed it off, jokingly said, "I'm here to apologize to the great beauty Zhao this time. I'm mentally prepared for whatever punishment you want."
Hearing Luo Chao's words, Zhao Hanxue suspiciously glanced at him. Isn't this guy always taking advantage but never losing out? How come he seemed to have changed, becoming so accommodating today?
"No need to look. I'm indeed here to apologize," Luo Chao adjusted his posture, sitting upright and sincerely said, "Last time's matter was my fault. You as a woman were touched by me..."
"You dare to bring it up!" Zhao Hanxue furiously said, how could he mention this incident, didn't he see there's a kid here?
"Alright! I won't say anymore!" Luo Chao waved his hands in surrender, "In any case, it's my fault, so don't be mad!"
This left Zhao Hanxue at a bit of a loss on what to do. Originally, she planned to seize an opportunity to teach Luo Chao a lesson, making him fall heavily, hopefully drawing everyone's disdain.
See, how vindictive a woman's heart can be, with even just a touch requiring such retribution, so never offend a woman, not even those who seem indifferent to everything like an ice-cold goddess.
Now, with Luo Chao proactively admitting his mistake and being so earnest, it made her a bit embarrassed. She wasn't skilled at communicating with people, making it hard for her to find the right words to say.
"Then... let's just move past it!" Ultimately, she accepted Luo Chao's apology. After all, it wasn't a big deal.
"I knew the great beauty Zhao was reasonable," Luo Chao clapped his hands joyfully, "I want to give you a gift to symbolize our friendship."
Reaching into his pocket, he pulled out a poorly crafted leather wrist guard. "I made this myself, taking three whole days. It's especially for you, so don't turn your nose up at it!"
Little Wolf standing behind was dumbfounded. So Brother Luo holed himself up for three days just to make this thing. No way, I thought he shut himself away because he was about to level up.
Zhao Hanxue looked at the crudely made leather wrist guard, sewn a few stitches to form a circle, her mouth twitching a little, feeling a mix of amusement and frustration.
How could he have the nerve to give that? Giving nothing would be better than this. As it was, if thrown on the street, even a garbage collector wouldn't give it a second glance. Zhao Hanxue even questioned if it was real leather.
"No need, I'm not much into wrist guards." Zhao Hanxue wanted to refuse.
"No problem, take it. You might end up liking it," Luo Chao didn't give her a chance, stuffing it into her lab coat pocket. "If you don't take it, I won't feel right."
Zhao Hanxue gave a wry smile, what could she do? Begrudgingly, she accepted the piece of junk. She might just store it away in a box in her room forever, never to see the light of day, or else...
Reluctantly, Zhao Hanxue accepted the leather wrist guard. After all, it was a piece of goodwill. Then, she started to show them out: "I've accepted your apology, and taken the gift, so if there's nothing else, you should head back." Still her usual icy demeanor, unwilling to say more than needed.
"Hold on, I do have another favor to ask," Luo Chao revealed his actual intent, "In truth, besides coming to apologize, I'm also here to ask the great beauty Zhao for a few superpower potions, can you?"
Zhao Hanxue was the primary developer of the superpower potions, and held all the reserves. Luo Chao had no choice but to request nicely.
