Chapter 257: Chapter 257 - Which One Did You Abduct? (3)

They chatted for a while more, and then Ju Ri got up to leave.

“Lü Tao, no one will bother me anymore, right?” Her eyes closed, Leng Ruoxue asked Lü Tao, who was not far away.

“There should be no one else,” Lü Tao replied, somewhat dumbfounded.?It seems like Miss really hates socializing!

“Miss.” Feng Da walked into the garden just as Lü Tao finished speaking.

Lü Tao stood in front of Feng Da like an old hen and shouted with a displeased face, “What are you doing here? Miss is going to sleep.”

“Uh, Tao’er, I have something to tell Miss.” Feng Da scratched his head shyly.

“I told you not to call me Tao’er!” Lü Tao said unhappily while rolling her eyes at Feng Da. But her cheeks were slightly red, and her expression was a little unnatural.

“It’s nice to be called Tao’er. How endearing,” Leng Ruoxue, who was pretending to be sleeping with her eyes closed, suddenly said.

In fact, she had long discovered that there was something going on between the two of them. But she had been pretending not to know anything. But now, she wanted to tease them. To be honest, seeing that they were not making much progress, she was a little anxious. Alas! She didn’t want this pair of lovers to be as dull-witted as she was and only know the importance of each other after losing each other. Thinking of this, she couldn’t help but feel lucky that Freak was not dead. She just didn’t know when he would return to her side…n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

“Miss!” Lü Tao blushed and ran away.

“Feng Da, why aren’t you chasing after her?” Leng Ruoxue urged Feng Da, who was standing there foolishly.

“Ah!” Feng Da reacted and hurriedly chased after her.

“We can finally have some peace and quiet.” Leng Ruoxue raised the little silver mink in her arms to her eyes.

“Xue’er, why do you always like to lift me up?” the little mink said unhappily.?I’m totally exposed in this position. Boohoo…

“Haha! Because I find you more adorable this way,” Leng Ruoxue said with a chuckle.

For the past half a year, her grandfather and the others had all gone into seclusion. She moved all the people she had hidden, apart from the students of the Heavenly Phoenix Academy and the members of the imperial family of the Southern Dusk Empire, into the space to live at the request of Old Man and Patriarch Feng. She also sent Old Yu and the others in at the same time…

Her team was growing. Moreover, almost everyone chose to enter seclusion simultaneously after entering the space. Now, only she, the little mink, Lü Tao, and Feng Da were staying in the huge general’s mansion…

Two hours later, Feng Da and Lü Tao appeared holding hands in front of Leng Ruoxue.

“Feng Da, you’re not allowed to bully Lü Tao!” Leng Ruoxue warned half-jokingly.

“Miss!” Lü Tao’s beautiful face blushed shyly, slightly embarrassed.

“Miss, don’t worry. Lü Tao will be the head of our family from now on. I definitely won’t dare to bully her,” Feng Da promised very seriously. His handsome face was full of satisfaction. He, who was an orphan, finally had a family.

“Very good.” Leng Ruoxue nodded in satisfaction.

“By the way, Miss, the president of the Mercenary Union just came to see me,” Feng Da said.

“What’s the matter?” Leng Ruoxue asked with a frown.

“He said that our Blazing Flame Mercenary Group can already advance to an A-rank mercenary group, so he wants us to advance,” Feng Da quickly explained.

“Is that all?” Leng Ruoxue raised her eyebrows in disbelief.

“Yes, he didn’t say anything else. Miss, should we advance?” Feng Da couldn’t help asking.

“What for? Troublesome! I think F-rank is pretty good,” Leng Ruoxue said without much interest. But she couldn’t help wondering if the Mercenary Union was so free that it had the time to think about such a trivial matter.

“Yes, F-rank is so different!” Feng Da quickly echoed. Fortunately, he had long guessed that the young lady would not be interested, so he didn’t decide on his own to upgrade the mercenary group’s rank.

“Sigh! I wonder how long Grandpa and the others plan to be in seclusion?” Leng Ruoxue murmured to herself as she looked at the slightly deserted general’s mansion.

“Miss, are you bored? Why don’t we take on some mercenary missions to have fun?” Lü Tao suggested. She was also a little bored staying at home all day.

“Okay. Feng Da, go to Hurricane and see if there are any missions. Tell them to count us in,” Leng Ruoxue ordered. She didn’t want Feng Da to go to the Mercenary Union to take on missions. That would attract too much attention, and her principle was to keep a low profile.

“I’ll go right away,” Feng Da quickly replied and turned to leave.

An hour later, Feng Da returned.

“Miss, they just received a training mission,” Feng Da reported.

“Where are we going?” Leng Ruoxue asked lightly without even looking up.

“To the Misty Woods.”

“There? It’s boring there. The level of the spirit beasts is low. Get them to go to the Illusionary Forest!” Leng Ruoxue suggested after some thought.

“Uh, I already mentioned it to them.” Alas! He knew that his young lady wouldn’t be satisfied with the Misty Woods, so he had already told them in advance. Moreover, Ju Ri happened to want to go to the Illusionary Forest to look for holy beasts, so he agreed without even thinking. In fact, only fools would disagree!

“When do we set off?”

“Tomorrow morning.”

“Oh, then let’s rest early today!” Leng Ruoxue returned to her room.

…

The next morning, Leng Ruoxue and the others arrived at the Hurricane Mercenary Group’s headquarters on time.

Three months ago, the Hurricane Mercenary Group had moved their headquarters from Lunar Capital to Phoenix City.

Upon seeing Leng Ruoxue, Commander Ju took the initiative to greet her warmly. “Hehe, Ruoxue, you’re here.”

“Uncle Ju, Grandpa and the others are in seclusion. I came here because I was bored, not to snatch business from you!” Leng Ruoxue teased.

“Hehe, you are really too naughty. You even want to tease an old man like me. But you don’t have to snatch anything. Which mission do you fancy? Uncle Ju will take the initiative to deliver it to you,” Commander Ju said happily. Leng Ruoxue had saved their lives, but even if she hadn’t, he wouldn’t be able to refuse such a beautiful and cute little girl!
