Chapter 1543: At a Time Like This

"......"

Touch your sister! After struggling to tear his gaze away from that water stain, Li Ang looked at the Red-haired woman's hazy eyes and her fair neck that was clearly flushed with alcohol, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help but twitch.

This damn woman, after drinking too much, she's starting to act up again......

"How about it?"

Looking at Li Ang who remained silent before her, the drunken Red-haired woman kicked off her shoes, her fair heels gently tapping against the desk's drawer, and said with a smile: "Won't you reconsider? You just need to stay here for a few days in my place, and then you can......"

"Not considering it!"

Relying on incomparable willpower, after flatly refusing the Red-haired woman's invitation, Li Ang took half a step back and said with a dark face:

"So the refusal is because you're already married, not because you're not interested, right?"

"......"

Also, speaking of this embrace of mine, it shouldn't have any other meaning either, it can only count as...... comfort born of friendship, it can't count as me cheating, right? Right?

This one book p>

Glancing again at the empty wine bottles piled like a mountain, and the broken glass shards swept into the corner, Li Ang couldn't help but sigh, gave up on continuing to struggle, and instead reached out to embrace the tearful Red-haired woman, patting her back lightly.

"No! I'm not drunk!"

After hearing Senior Emma's name, Li Ang couldn't help but fall silent for a moment, his struggling movements also weakening slightly.

Right......?

Your mouth is really hard...... Lean away lean away! Without exposing the Red-haired woman's lie, letting her nuzzle against his chest to compose herself, Li Ang lightly patted her back to comfort her while his thoughts couldn't help but start to wander.

I didn't agree okay? And although I did indeed touch her, this feeling is damn well like being raped...... Speaking of which, how much did you actually drink! Looking at the wine bottles piled into a small mountain behind the drawer, Li Ang struggled twice but found he couldn't move, and could only try to persuade her: "Director, you're drunk."

Unfortunately, the situation in the Dead Realm isn't something you can just brute force; I don't even know where she's being held, and I'm on the Dead Realm Lords' blacklist. Rushing into the Dead Realm would not only fail to save anyone, it would be pure suicide.

"I suddenly remembered that leaf from before."

But right now she had drunk enough alcohol to activate 'Drunken Immortal' five or six times; the rational restrictions were paralyzed, plus learning from his own mouth that this time she still couldn't participate in the operation, her emotions finally surged up somewhat uncontrollably.

Although I did indeed touch the Director's thigh, it was forced, not my own intention...... Hmm...... I admit I did think about it a little...... but I only thought about it and didn't act on it, I directly refused, I just wasn't as strong as her.

"Relax, I won't tell anyone~"

Secretly sniffing her sour nose, the Red-haired woman lowered her head slightly, pressing her forehead against Li Ang's chest, and said in a muffled voice:

For Senior Emma, who had given him a great deal of help and had almost...... been a step ahead of Veronica, Li Ang naturally also kept her in his heart; ever since learning she had also run into trouble, he had been thinking every moment about how to quickly rescue her.

The only somewhat close Director Taurus was also extremely busy; the other people in the bureau were more subordinates than friends, so in those years before she joined the Virgin Branch, Senior Emma was probably her only friend.

Nodding in a half-understanding way, the Red-haired woman reached back to embrace Li Ang's waist, sniffed, and said: "You say our current posture, isn't it very similar to a scene in that leaf of mine?"

Although she usually always blinked those pretty fox eyes, smiling as she chugged wine bottles, looking like she didn't have a care in the world, that didn't mean she was the kind of person calm enough to ignore all emotions; she was just rational enough.

And the Director, who was even closer to Senior Emma, naturally felt even worse in her heart than he did.

"......"

In the Director's leaf, I seemingly became a real Sea King to brush the Sea King Badge, and then the Director and I, in different places, acted out a whole bunch of repetitive identical scenes...... (Chapter 786) "The scene you speak of...... wouldn't be......"

The moment white light lit up behind him, Li Ang had already instinctively sensed something, and before the scream came from behind, he suddenly turned his head.

"Oh......" Li Ang was slightly stunned upon hearing this, then immediately understood.

"Ah ya!"

"Those seven leaves that recorded different 'if lines'?"

After completing a rather classic drunken rambling dialogue, a trace of moisture suddenly rose in the Red-haired woman's eyes; she tilted her face up, tears pooling, and said: "You touched me so you have to promise me, guard the Virgin Branch well for me...... *hic*...... Why is it always me who stays behind? It's not fair! I want to go to the Dead Realm! I want to save Emma! I don't want to stay here waiting idly!"

Senior Emma......

So the only feasible method is to use my status as a Director to mobilize the entire Cleanup Bureau's power, force the Dead Realm Lords to make concessions, and bring Senior Emma and those captured Cleaners back.

The scene in your leaf? Li Ang recalled upon hearing this, and then a rather hard-to-maintain expression couldn't help but surface on his face.

"Li Ang......"

"Stop messing around, I'm married!"

"I just drank too much and got a little dizzy...... just let me lean for a bit......"

"Director." Lightly patting the Red-haired woman's back, patting out a not-too-big-not-too-small burp, Li Ang, understanding she was feeling very awful right now, hesitated for a moment, then said gently: "If you're really feeling that bad......"

As expected, Joshua and Young Lady Zhuangpo, who should still have been on the road, were naturally sent back by Director Capricorn; right now Young Lady Zhuangpo was looking at him and the Director with eyes full of shock, and upon noticing his gaze, she covered her mouth in terror and shook her head frantically.

Leaf?

And the transfer order agreeing to Senior Emma going to the Thousand Sails Sea Nation was also personally issued by her; to her this was equivalent to personally sending her friend into danger, yet she herself couldn't go save her due to her duties, so the Director naturally felt quite awful in her heart.

"It's that one."

The Red-haired woman burped, and hummed in a flash of white light:

And just as Li Ang was enduring moral condemnation on one hand and couldn't help but let his thoughts wander on the other, the Red-haired woman suddenly let out a small burp, then nestled in his arms and murmured:

Her right hand was like a Hukou vise, death-gripping Li Ang's wrist, pressing his hand onto her thigh and rubbing it twice; her voice turning soft and coquettish, the Red-haired woman blinked her eyes with a pitiful look: "You've already finished touching, you can't go back on your word!"

"Uncle-in-law line? What line is that?"

"Li Ang, us doing this, isn't it a bit sorry to Veronica?"

"Uh...... not Uncle-in-law line, 'if' means if...... it's assuming I didn't marry Veronica, but chose someone else as a partner, the different futures that might happen afterwards."

As for why she didn't mention it at the board meeting, it was to avoid being judged as acting on impulse, affecting other Directors' trust in their judgment of her, so she deliberately avoided this topic, but in her heart it was always extremely urgent.

If I'm not mistaken, the Director probably has no living relatives left.

Look at one one!

The drunken Red-haired woman raised her hand, beckoning slightly to Li Ang; two strands of passionate red hair, like a lover's arms, gently coiled around Li Ang's waist, forcibly dragging him back, plowing two arched deep furrows in the carpet.

"I wasn't trying to cry!"

"Good Li Ang~ just promise me!"

"I...... I didn't hear anything! I absolutely won't tell anyone!"

「……」

I knew it!
