Chapter 654

No matter where they went, there were inexplicable provocations and bullying. Bai Bai Susu was personally strong, so she was naturally not afraid, but the ordinary mercenaries in the group couldn’t withstand this high pressure. The most terrifying thing was that they didn’t kill them all, but rather used a powerful stance to endlessly injure you and force you to seek treatment.

If you didn’t treat it, you would die, and after you were healed, they would injure you again, making you go for treatment, repeating the cycle over and over.

Physicians in the Imperial Capital might offer discounts to local mercenaries, but they charged much more for mercenaries from out of town. This was also an unspoken rule in the Imperial Capital; any industry would inevitably suppress outside forces!

In the end, the Baiheng Mercenary Group of dozens of people dwindled to just a few. Bai Bai Susu was helpless against the drastic changes in the group, but those who remained were almost the elite of the elite.

This also made her determined that the Baiheng Mercenary Group would follow an elite path in the future and not let such things happen again. First, she had to find Lin Cheng; only Lin Cheng could give her the capital to follow an elite path.

“Let’s go, let’s find him!”

“Hmm.”

At the entrance of the blacksmith shop!

It was nearing noon, and today was another day of not opening for business!

Lin Cheng, in a good mood, finished his discussion with Li Li Jian and planned to go to the restaurant to eat some fried food and listen to Jueqing sing along the way.

After his training, Jueqing was now one of the three wonders of the restaurant!

The other two wonders were the delicious food in the restaurant, and Lin Cheng himself!

Originally, Jueqing was at most a background board in the eyes of the diners, but now it was different. Possessing the inheritance of Yang Yang Yuhuan, along with Lin Cheng’s various modern tunes, Jueqing was fully capable of forming an otherworldly girl group.

Last time, Li Li Jian came in a hurry and left in a hurry, not enjoying the double happiness of fried food and milk tea at all. Plus, with the stimulation of various songs, it was definitely eye-opening. This time, Lin Cheng was the host, and he had to make it a memorable experience for His Highness.

“Your Highness, the restaurant has new items. I guarantee they are much more satisfying than what you eat in the Imperial Palace. And that girl Jueqing has learned new songs. Your Highness, you can’t miss it. It’s the kind that will definitely make you remember it forever.”

“Oh, really?”

Lin Cheng gave Li Li Jian a “special” look with a grin. Li Li Jian’s eyes flashed, mistakenly thinking this was a...

“Of course, you’ll know once you go,” Lin Cheng said with a smile, keeping him in suspense.

Then, the two walked towards the Flying Fox Restaurant next door, chatting and laughing.

Just at this moment, a fervent gaze was suddenly detected by Lin Cheng. In the past, when watched by such fervent gazes, he would always ignore them.

After all, he was somewhat of a celebrity; it was normal to be watched by fans with such fervent gazes!

But this time, he turned his head to look.

At the other end of the street stood five or six mercenaries. That was nothing, but one of the youths seemed to be waving enthusiastically at him, and he seemed to vaguely hear something being shouted.

“Brother-in-law!”

Uh.

Lin Cheng’s face darkened. Who was he? Why was he blindly calling someone else brother-in-law?

Looking to the side, the leader seemed to be a woman in white. Oh, she was even wearing a mask on her face; a bit fancy.

She must be very ugly.

The tall, slender figure and the mask on her face looked familiar?

Lin Cheng shook his head and quickly cast this thought out of his mind. How could he have any dealings with an ugly woman?

“What’s wrong?”

“Your Highness, you go in first. I seem to have seen someone looking for me. Xiaoyan, take His Highness to the largest private room, and by the way, get your sister Jueqing to get everybody hyped up.”

“Okay.” Feiyan, who was instructed, nodded quickly. .......

“Your Highness, please follow me.” ===== CHAPTER 1398 =====

Li Li Jian followed Feiyan away.

Just in case, Lin Cheng decided to go see for himself. It would be awkward if he really knew them. If he didn’t know them, it would be even more awkward.

Without delay, Lin Cheng strode towards the opposite side.

“You’re here.”

Seeing Lin Cheng arrive, Bai Bai Susu couldn’t suppress the joy in her heart and couldn’t help but speak happily.

The man in front of her had made her miss him for a long time. There had been an opportunity once, but unfortunately, she had missed it.

However... she had returned.

“Hmm.”

Lin Cheng nodded indifferently, though he was wondering who this girl was.

Walking closer, wasn’t the mask this girl was wearing the Phantom Mask?

During the days he had been running the shop in the fortress city, it seemed the Phantom Mask was one of the few items that couldn’t be sold at all, so where did the Phantom Mask on her face come from?

Could it be that one had already been sold?

“Are... are you doing well?” While Lin Cheng was pondering, Bai Bai Susu asked again.

He nodded without even thinking.

“Hmm, doing well, everything is going smoothly.”

“Is it going smoothly with her?” When asking this, Bai Bai Susu’s tone and eyes couldn’t help but dim a little.

If she hadn’t left for the sake of the group members back then, perhaps her situation now would be completely different.

“Quite smoothly.”

Lin Cheng didn’t know what the other party was talking about, but nodding was the right thing to do.

“That’s true. After all, it was my fault back then; I shouldn’t have left you all.” Bai Bai Susu’s eyes became even more dejected.

“It’s okay, I don’t mind. I forgive you.”

When Lin Cheng said this, he also recalled a bit; it seemed he really hadn’t been wronged by anyone. ===== CHAPTER 1399 =====
