Legend of the chosen ones: Beyond Destiny Chapter 1083 - 561: Gratitude

"Cheers!"

In the bustling and noisy food stall, it was busy, people coming and going, the air filled with the aroma of barbecue and lobster, and the beer foam spilling over the rim of the cup.

In the slightly shabby tin room, the air conditioner was humming, and under the dim yellow light, shrimp shells and leftover tal skewers were scattered ssily on the table. The TV was still playing the news.

Compared to other places, it might not be classy or tasteful, but it was extraordinarily relaxing and liberating.

When raising the glass again, despite the reluctance, the smile remained bright.

With the crisp clink, Ji Jue took a sip from his beer glass, while Wen Wen still tilted her head back boldly and gulped it all down.

Tong Hua was already clinging to her, hugging her without letting go, tears and snot almost running down: "Boohoo, Sister Wen, I really can't bear to part with you.

Sister Wen, Sister Wen, take with you, how can I live without you..."

"Okay, okay!"

Wen Wen lifted her by the back collar for the umpteenth ti and put her back in her seat: "It's just six months of advanced study at most. If everything goes smoothly, I'll be back in three or four months. It's not a matter of life and death."

Orders always co unexpectedly.

A piece of paper from the head office made Wen Wen a special representative for the Hai Province Security Bureau, transferred this ti to the Void Abyss rotation. Within the Security Bureau, this was a promotion path that many sought after, and it was one of the résumés most valued by the Central City Headquarters.

Nominally a rotation, but actually a training. Going through the process, then coming back ans rewards and promotions, and from then on, leaving behind local tiers, included in the Headquarters promotion list.

Such a rare opportunity fell on Wen Wen, who loved to beat her colleagues and flip tables. It shocked so many eyes.

And Wen Wen, who usually never cared for such things, this ti accepted the transfer order.

In two days, she'll set off.

Tong Hua was all worried: "I heard the Void Abyss leads directly to the Vortex, and it erupts and riots irregularly. Could it be dangerous?"

"Oh, everyone knows it's dangerous, so surely the guards and defenses are top-notch. Besides, when the sky falls, the Heavenly People hold it up, and Su Biluo, that lazy fellow, has been lying around the Void Abyss for so many years, what risk could there be?"

Wen Wen comforted: "Didn't Tong Zhiwu also go there a few years ago? I didn't see you so worried then."

"Plants are plants, Sister Wen is Sister Wen, how can they be the sa! Besides, I'm really worried about you!"

Tong Hua's eyes began to redden again, and just as Wen Wen was about to laugh and ask who could kill her, she heard her resentful words: "After all, Sister Wen, you love to shop impulsively, maxing out your credit card every month, barely sustainable on your own, often getting drunk and hitting colleagues, unable to handle workplace relations, unaware when soone sets a trap for you. What if you get excluded?

Besides, life is completely ssy, you don't manage your hair often, never use makeup products, no skincare unless supervised, the perfu I gave you is gathering dust, all your clothes are jackets and trousers, never skirts, not even a bit of femi… Mmph, mmph, mmph..."

Before she could finish, her dog mouth was pinched shut.

Silenced.

"That's enough, there's no need to say more."

Wen Wen dodged the gaze from Ji Jue, lifted the cup from the table, and began pouring it into Tong Hua's foolish mouth, bubbles gurgling, almost suffocating her.

Ah, seems a bit dead.

Quickly letting go, after a bout of coughs, the sowhat tipsy Tong Hua leaned over again, wiping her tears and whining: "How could you bear to leave us, the whole family? If you go, what if sothing unsolvable happens in the Northern Mountain District."

"Northern Mountain District, such a small place, what could be unsolvable there?" Wen Wen sighed: "If any little punk dares to act up, old Zhang can handle it on his morning walk."

"Old Zhang is so old, how could you be so heartless, Sister Wen!"

"Ah right, right."

The retired old man nodded fervently, egging on the situation: "Oh dear, getting old recently, always feel aches in the arms and legs, not as strong as before."

Looking like he's on his last legs, completely not ntioning the abnormal Vortex System's health bar and physique. Well-maintained, who knows, maybe Ji Jue would age and die, and he'd still be like this...

"If old Zhang is unavailable, ask him." Wen Wen helplessly extended her hand, pointing at Ji Jue, who was munching on edama beside them.

"Uh?" Ji Jue was baffled.

"What's wrong?" Wen Wen laughed, teasing and joking: "Mr. Ji with millions of business deals every second, you wouldn't have forgotten your hardworking brothers and sisters at work, would you?"

"Irrefutably my duty, Sister Wen."

Ji Jue patted his chest without hesitation, smiling slightly: "I'll install so surveillance systems and two missile launchers in the Northern Mountain District. Connect them to the Security Bureau's database. If it detects a wanted criminal, just press a button in the office, and wham, no need to even leave the door, easy and straightforward!"

Though there's jest and sarcasm, surely things wouldn't be left unattended if sothing did happen.

Although it's not enough to use any large-scale destructive weapons in the city, even if Ji Jue doesn't personally intervene, just casually issuing a few instructions, those maxed-out at smuggling so banned goods would naturally be effortlessly caught.

"I don't want missiles, I want Sister Wen, boohoo..."

Tong Hua clung to Wen Wen, cuddling in her broad embrace, and for a mont it was hard to tell if it was tears or drool, soon she went back to her seat with a bump on her forehead.
