3274 Curiosity
“Kita, let’s go play with the model jet!” Funo went up to Feng Wu and tried to take her hand.
However, Feng Wu dodged in time.
She frowned at Funo.
Funo was stunned. Hadn’t Kita always been a nice girl? Why did she suddenly become so distant…
“I borrowed the model from the shop owner. Shall we go play together?” Funo quickly put on a bright smile.
Feng Wu’s eyes were much sharper than ordinary people’s, so she could tell Funo was a little annoyed. However, he suppressed his anger and continued to fawn over her.
Feng Wu was speechless.
How could she accept the courtship of a stranger, let alone someone with a bad temper like Funo?
Feng Wu nodded at him. “That won’t be necessary.”
Funo’s face darkened. “Kita, it took me some effort to borrow this.”
It was more like a rental because he had to pay a high fee. He could tell that Kita liked it very much.
Funo had already formed a plan on winning the innocent girl’s heart, but suddenly, the girl’s demeanor seemed to change. She didn’t look like a little lamb anymore.
Feng Wu said, “Enjoy the model yourself!”
After that, Feng Wu left the shop.
Funo immediately put down the model and chased after her, but when he rushed out, Kita was nowhere to be seen.
Funo was furious, and his eyes flashed with a malicious glint.
The shop owner looked at Funo with a smile. “This is the first time I’ve seen you fail. Why? Doesn’t that trick work anymore? Look at how scared the little girl was.”
Funo glared at the shop owner and cursed under his breath. “She can’t run from me forever. I know where she lives.”
Uncle Wang said, “Are you going to wait outside her door or barge into her room at night?”
Funo’s eyes were cold. “That’s none of your business.”
A warning look appeared on the shop owner’s face. “You can sleep with her, but don’t kill her. You know Mr. Sakiya is in town now. If the young lady complains to Mr. Sakiya, you will be finished. Understand?”
Funo sneered, his lowered eyes flashing ruthlessly.
No girl in this world had ever dared refuse him.
After leaving the armory, Feng Wu went into a restaurant.
This restaurant was called “Till You Drop.”
It meant “drink till you drop.”
To stay out of Funo’s sight, Feng Wu found a quiet table and was going to think things through as she tried to figure out how to catch Bu Jingyu.
Feng Wu ordered quite a few dishes and sat there alone, listening carefully to her surroundings.
There were two middle-aged men near her. They looked like they were about to retire from the army.
Indeed, the two of them were talking about this topic.
“Chow, I would never have expected this. Only a few of us survived.”
Chow raised his glass and toasted the person opposite him. “Lou, we joined the army in the same year. In the blink of an eye, we’re about to retire.”
Lou said, “That’s right. Have you thought about what you’ll do after you retire from the army?”
They both fell silent.
The Dongsang Kingdom had a blood tax system. They were all selected children who had been raised by the system. They were taught to read and practice martial arts. When they entered the army, they weren’t allowed to marry or contact their families.
Feng Wu remembered they weren’t allowed to leave the army until they were 40 years old. After that, they could get married and stay in contact with their families. However, they weren’t allowed to have anything to do with the army, and their sons weren’t allowed to join the army, either.
