Chapter 1146: Chapter 857: VIP (First Update)
“Let explain.”
Seeing Qian Chengxue’s strange expression, Su Mo was inexplicably anxious.
Pfft~
Seeing Su Mo so flustered, Qian Chengxue couldn’t help but laugh and said, “Alright, I’m just teasing you. It’s nothing.”
“Phew, that’s good. Let take you ho then.”
Su Mo sighed in relief, quickly changing the subject, thinking of taking her ho to prevent any more unexpected events.
“Sure.”
Qian Chengxue readily agreed, as she was very curious about the ho where Su Mo once lived.
“This way.”
Su Mo led Qian Chengxue towards his ho. Soon they arrived at a spacious courtyard, where the greenery was well-maintained, seemingly frequently tended to.
The stone tables and other elents in the courtyard looked very new, suggesting they were built later.
However, the old central building looked out of place, and although the exterior had been renovated, it was still apparent it was an old house, with green vines climbing the side.
Su Mo led Qian Chengxue towards the building.
The entire building retained its original appearance, untouched.
The ground floor used to face the street, housing shops, so it remained abandoned. They climbed the stairs to the second floor.
Su Mo opened the door to the room.
A spacious living room ca into view, with very nice interior decoration.
“I’ll change my shoes.”
Qian Chengxue said.
“No need to trouble yourself.”
Su Mo replied casually.
“It’s no trouble. Aren’t there won’s slippers here?”
Qian Chengxue narrowed her eyes and smiled.
“Uh, sure, they were originally left for guests.”
Su Mo quickly explained.
“Haha, you look so scared.”
Seeing Su Mo so tense, Qian Chengxue secretly laughed.
“Nonsense, co on in.”
Su Mo quickly stepped inside.
Qian Chengxue, curious, followed him and looked around the entire living room.
“Which one is your room?”
“Over there, let show you.”
Su Mo led Qian Chengxue into his room.
At a glance, there were cabinets and bookshelves everywhere, filled with various lifelike figurines, beautiful ga and ani characters, sci-fi weapons, cha models, and various limited edition ga boxes.
Qian Chengxue was slightly surprised as she walked up, curiously observing these vivid figurines saying, “Did you collect all these?”
“Yes, I did!”
Su Mo said with a smile.
“I didn’t expect you to have this hobby, it’s quite nice. These figurines look well-made, must be limited editions, right? You probably can’t find them in the marketplace or stores, can you?”
Qian Chengxue was quite knowledgeable.
“If you like, you can take any of them.”
Su Mo generously offered.
Qian Chengxue shook her head, smiling and said, “No need, they’re good where they are. Besides, aren’t what’s yours also mine?”
“Haha, true.”
“But so of them are damaged.”
Qian Chengxue suddenly noticed many of the figurines were broken and repaired later.
“Uh, they got damaged while tidying things up, wasn’t careful.”
Su Mo said, slightly twitching his mouth.
“Hmm.”
Qian Chengxue nodded slightly, not paying it much mind, as figurines are indeed quite fragile.
Looking at the wall filled with limited edition gas and figurines, Qian Chengxue suddenly felt a pang of sympathy.
Su Mo’s childhood must have been so lonely to rely on these for comfort.
“What’s wrong?”
Seeing Qian Chengxue standing silently, Su Mo asked puzzledly.
Qian Chengxue snapped back and smiled, saying, “Nothing.”
“I’ll just tidy up the room a bit, and then we can stay here for a while.”
Su Mo simply started tidying the room.
“Alright.”
Qian Chengxue nodded slightly, curiously observing the room.
At that mont, Qian Chengxue suddenly noticed a photo on the table, in which a kind elderly man was holding the hand of a young child.
“That’s my grandpa.”
Su Mo introduced with a smile.
Qian Chengxue couldn’t help but clasp her hands behind her back, moved closer to look carefully, then said, “You were pretty cute as a child.”
“Not bad, actually I’m quite handso now too.”
Su Mo joked with Qian Chengxue.
“That’s true, very popular with the girls.”
“Cough, cough! Stop that, can I admit I misspoke?”
“Why are there only photos of your grandfather and you, and none of your parents?”
Qian Chengxue suddenly rembered and asked curiously.
“My parents died in a car accident when I was born. I almost died in that accident too. Luckily, I survived, but my health wasn’t good. Grandpa said the doctors thought I was hopeless. But he didn’t give up on , brought ho, and raised little by little.”
Su Mo smiled as he replied.
“I see.”
Hearing this, Qian Chengxue felt even more sympathy for Su Mo.
“It’s nothing, see, I’m fine now.”
“Alright, but since you only tidied up one room, does that an I have to sleep with you?”
Qian Chengxue looked at Su Mo with great anticipation.
“Cough, cough, if you want, we can! But don’t worry, I’ll be totally well-behaved.”
Su Mo’s heart was racing, inexplicably looking forward to it.
“Haha~”
Seeing Su Mo’s shy look, Qian Chengxue also laughed.

In the administrative building on the outer edges of the Third Ring of Star Ring City.
Inside a spacious office.
Arcav’s plump body plopped down onto a specially made chair, leisurely spinning it around.
On the desk, a mountain of application docunts stacked up.
He didn’t even take a look at them.
At that mont, the office door opened, and an energetic old man in a blue-gray noble robe walked in.
Seeing the old man enter, Arcav quickly stood up, beaming with greetings.
“Isn’t it Lord Delroco? What brings you here?”
“Arcav, you flatter too much. No need for such formalities, after all, we entered Star Ring City at the sa ti and are old pals now.”
Delroco replied with a smile.
“Oh, well, who would dare! Although we are all Summoners of the Heavenly Cup and entered Star Ring City together, there’s still a hierarchy!”
Arcav spared no efforts in complinting Delroco.
“You still speak so well. Let introduce you to a big shot.”
Delroco was very pleased with Arcav’s flattery, replying in a good mood.
“Who is it?”
Arcav asked with so suspicion.
At that mont, Emperor Marcus walked in. The terrifying aura he exuded made the smile on Arcav’s face gradually fade away.
He couldn’t help but twitch his oily, chubby face and said.
“A real big shot has arrived, Emperor Marcus.”
“Arcav, the administrator!”
Emperor Marcus extended a strong, powerful hand towards Arcav.
Arcav forced a smile and shook hands with Emperor Marcus, feeling a bit bewildered inside.
