Chapter 225 223 Oh, isn’t this Situ Jin?

“Why are you here?”

Today, Wang Wu was just like usual. After finishing the first day of specialized martial arts courses, Wang Wu started his regular daily leisure time.

He went to class in the morning, practiced in the afternoon, and spent the remaining two or three hours shopping before going home to sleep. Of course, Wang Wu did not waste his sleeping time, and was still diligent. How diligent he was depended on the specific situation of the day.

Then today I went out and strolled along the familiar streets as usual, mainly where the largest number of people gathered. There were people from all over the world, not just Chu people, but also Zhou people.

As for the Wei people, they generally don’t come here. Their relationship with the Chu State is not as harmonious as that between the Zhou people and the Chu people. The two sides still have military conflicts on the border, but it has been much better in recent years.

But the relationship between the two countries is still relatively tense. Although there are exchanges between the people, Lijiang, where Baichi City is located, is not on the border between Chu and Wei, but on the border between Zhou and Chu, so you can’t see any Wei people here.

Generally speaking, the largest population on this street is still from Chu. According to an official from the relevant department of Baichi City who was asked before, the permanent human population in the area where this street is located is basically around 200,000.

There are even more floating populations. After all, Baichi City is also a tourist city. After coming here, people generally live in hotels in this area and then find a tour guide to take them around.

Baichi City is very large. It not only has an urban area, but also large villages outside the city walls.

Lijiang is an extremely wide river.

Of course, Wang Wu didn’t go out of his way to find the official in charge to ask about this matter. It just happened that a female monster he knew worked in that department. She seemed to be some kind of official.

Forget it, I’m too lazy to think about it. It’s not important.

And today, what surprised Wang Wu was that he actually met an acquaintance here, and it was an acquaintance he hadn’t seen for some time.

When the other party saw Wang Wu, his expression was also stunned.

“king……”

She opened her mouth as if she wanted to call Wang Wu, but for some reason, she just remained silent.

The woman nodded silently towards Wang Wu and then turned away.

“What’s going on?”

Although he had often clashed with Situ Jin before, mainly because of fighting over food, Wang Wu didn’t dislike this woman anyway.

Although she felt that the other person was wearing a mask at the beginning, as they got to know each other better, she slowly began to show her true self in front of Wang Wu.

The real her would naturally not make Wang Wu feel disgusted. In fact, in some aspects, the man and the demon got along well. Although conflicts would often break out, that was how bad friends were.

But now, when the two met again, she treated Wang Wu as if she met a stranger.

Wang Wu didn’t know the reason, but since it was the other party’s choice, even though he felt a little strange, he could only respect it.

After all, there is no need to put a cold face on someone who is popular, and friendship is just like love. One-sided friendship cannot be considered friendship, and the same goes for love.

“Jin’er, this is…”

At this time, a man also came here after Wang Wu and Situ Jin met. After seeing Wang Wu, he was stunned at first, and then stood by Situ Jin to help.

Although he didn’t pay attention, Wang Wu still noticed that the man wanted to hold Situ Jin’s hand, but he dodged.

When the hand was dodged, even though it quickly disappeared, Wang Wu still caught a hint of loss and displeasure.

The latter was directed at him, obviously.

Because the blur was turned on, the man of course didn’t know who Wang Wu was. Situ Jin of course also knew about Wang Wu’s skill. Wang Wu had told her about it later, so she just turned around and glanced at Wang Wu.

“An old friend.”

Then, he said nothing more and just turned his head away. “Where are we going today?”

“Today’s words…” Situ Jin obviously didn’t intend to continue on this topic, but the man was different. Facing Situ Jin who was about to leave, he turned around and forcibly held her hand.

“what are you doing??”

When his hand was forcibly grabbed by the other party, Situ Jin’s voice obviously rose several degrees, and there was a hint of anger in his tone.

“You and I are already engaged, so can’t I hold your hand?!”

Facing Situ Jin’s angry tone, the man responded quite stubbornly, and directly retorted: “We have been engaged for half a year, right? But in this half year, you don’t even intend to hold my hand???”

“You are not yet my husband!!”

Situ Jin’s tone became very cold at this moment. She said word by word, “I don’t have any feelings for you either.”

“Why should I let you hold my hand?”

While saying this, energy in Situ Jin’s hands continued to burst out, tearing the man’s hands madly.

But even so, the man still had no intention of letting go.

If he continues like this, his grip may be in danger.

“My friend, a forced melon is not sweet.”

Faced with such a situation, even though Wang Wu was not a person who liked to interfere in other people’s emotional disputes, he still spoke up.

In such emotional disputes, it is actually a good thing to intervene. After all, if love is something that one party has but the other does not, it is better to break up.

“She doesn’t have any feelings for you, so why bother?”

“It’s better to let go as soon as possible. I see that you are a handsome man, and there are many better women in the world. Why do you have to love only one?”

“What does this have to do with you!?” Wang Wu’s persuasion had no effect, which was normal. After all, the man’s initial dissatisfaction came from Wang Wu, and now that he was said this, he was even more furious.

What do you call this? This is called adding fuel to the fire, adding fuel to the fire, dry wood meeting fierce fire… Ugh.

“She and I are friends after all. Since you’re pestering me like this, of course I have to say a few words for my friend.” Wang Wu was not scared. After not seeing him for such a long time, Situ Jin’s strength had improved a lot.

This is not surprising. After all, she is a genius of the Situ family and is about to break through the realm of truth when she is less than 20 years old.

And now, several years have passed, and she has already broken through and reached a new realm of breaking delusion, and her progress is even faster. It seems that she is already in the middle stage now?
“Your strength has improved quite fast.” After responding to the man, Wang Wu looked at Situ Jin again and said with a smile, “You are indeed a genius of the Situ family. I guess your brother has already broken through to the Void Realm?”

“Thank you for your concern.” When Wang Wu was persuading the man, Situ Jin was also looking at Wang Wu, especially when Wang Wu said that “she and I are friends after all”, her eyes flickered.

“But my brother has not yet reached the realm of Dongxu. Although my brother is the pride of my Situ family, it is not so easy to reach the realm of Dongxu.” “But you are already in the middle stage of Pozhuan, right?” Wang Wu asked, “You are so fast, but your brother has not reached Dongxu. Could it be that your talent is stronger than your brother’s?”

Situ Jin didn’t say anything, but it was obvious that she was quite pleased with what he said, and the corners of her mouth almost curled up.

But she still didn’t hook it up, even though the man next to her could clearly feel the change in her aura.

“Thank you for the compliment, young man.” She said softly.

Even though it was just a conversation of one or two words, and even though Situ Jin didn’t show any obvious reaction the whole time, for some reason, the man still felt a sharp pain in his heart.

Never had.

He had never felt the same momentum, joy, excitement and vigor in Situ Jin as when she treated that man.

Situ Jin is very beautiful, so beautiful that even the monster Wang Wu would admit her beauty. Of course, this does not mean that her appearance is higher than that of monsters like Wang Wu, but that her appearance is at the same level as their monster clan.

However, this is already a very high-level evaluation, because most human beings cannot get such an evaluation.

Appearance is always useful, unless you have reached a certain level, for example, you can see through falsehood at a glance, and all lies are meaningless in front of you.

But even people of this level, such as the earthlings like Master, they also look at the face, but compared to the face, they will pay more attention to your “inner self”.

If your inner self is good enough, then your appearance can be ignored. If your inner self is not good enough, then even if you have a stunning appearance, you will still be just like a skeleton in their eyes.

Wang Wu didn’t know how big of an impact appearance played here, but based on the years he had lived in this world, it was definitely a significant role.

Looking at the man with an angry expression on his face, Wang Wu asked Situ Jin: “Is this your fiancé?”

He doesn’t care about the other party’s reaction or actions. This is his confidence as an absolutely strong man in the Tianyuan Realm.

No one or any monster can challenge him in terms of strength, no human or monster. He is the man standing at the top of the extraordinary pyramid of this star system.

Not including the two Earthlings.

Although he is also an earthling.

But even if you count those two Earthlings, he can still rank third, so he is pretty awesome.

Very naughty.

“Do you care?”

When Wang Wu asked this question, Situ Jin asked this question subconsciously without thinking.

But after she said it, she regretted it.

As for the man next to him, once these words came out, even if he was mentally retarded, he could roughly guess the relationship between the two people.

In his current eyes, Wang Wu is of course a human being, not a demon. Of course, he could be a demon, but it is not important and the probability is very small.

Situ Jin never felt that she had any special feelings for Wang Wu. Admittedly, she had always been interested in Wang Wu, from the moment they met until Wang Wu went to Tongtian City with her.

This is her attitude towards Wang Wu. She thinks he is very interesting and a very valuable person who is worth winning over.

But when did this feeling begin to change?

Situ Jin didn’t know, or maybe she knew, that was when they were in Tongtian City and their group was trapped on an extremely remote alien planet whose area was still unknown.

And when Wang Wu brought them back from there, and in order to ensure their safety, he even risked his own body to break apart and asked his master to take over and completely destroy Tongtian City.

After that, in her heart, her feelings towards Wang Wu gradually changed.

Of course, she herself did not realize this at the time, or rather, did not think that was the beginning of the change.

However, the relationship between the two sides did become much closer after that.

She would begin to unconsciously pay attention to Wang Wu’s every move. Although she had been like this before, the kind of attention she paid was different from before.

But at that time, she didn’t feel that her mentality had changed, even though Wang Wu’s actions sometimes made her feel unnatural, shy, and…

But she didn’t, or didn’t want to realize it.

Until Wang Wu disappeared.

It has been several years since then, which is not a long time, but for her, it was like falling from heaven to hell.

This may be a bit exaggerated, but it is true.

Because Wang Wu’s disappearance was complete, the two sides no longer had any contact, as if Wang Wu had completely evaporated from her life.

Situ Jin’s father originally wanted to bring Wang Wu and Situ Jin together, regardless of what their relationship was, whether they were friends or lovers.

But for several years after that, Wang Wu never looked for the other party again, and Situ Jin’s father naturally would not continue to make efforts in this regard.

Moreover, with the emergence of the Jitian Palace, the status gap between the two has changed from being possible to being out of reach.

Since it is already out of reach, we can only face reality.

However, the engagement with her current fiancé was not arranged by Situ Jin’s father Situ Yuan. In fact, her family had no such requirement for her.

Although the prince of the Jiang family specifically wanted to marry Situ Jin, the Jiang family was a top aristocratic family in the Great Zhou Dynasty. If they could unite with this family, it would definitely be a great opportunity for the Situ family.

But even so, the family did not force Situ Jin, and agreeing to the marriage was Situ Jin’s personal choice.

Although everyone could see that Situ Jin didn’t like the prince at all, and even from the time of their engagement until now, not to mention any intimate actions, even the hand-holding was forced by Jiang Ying today.

Just now.

That’s right, even though they have been engaged for almost a year, this is the first time that Jiang Ying holds hands with the other party.

Situ Jin had no feelings for Jiang Ying at all, but at that time she was in a state of great loss, or heartbreak, because Wang Wu never looked for her again and simply disappeared from her life.

Although she could still hear news about him, he just didn’t come to see her.
