Chapter 347 Jiang Boyuan and Mira

"In other words, we can't just walk right in?"

Wang Mengmeng stood behind the crowd, shielding her eyes with her hand, and squinted forward for a moment.

Beside Wang Mengmeng were Chen Yu and the others, and of course, the trembling Little Xu.

She looked very nervous: "I'm not going in... That's the base of the Gold Swallowing Hall inside. If they find out I..."

Before Little Xu could finish her sentence, she suddenly crouched down.

Her gaze passed over Chen Yu's shoulder and landed on the crowd at the other end of the street corner: "It's... it's over... The... The Third Boss is back... I felt it with my Perception..."

Her body began to shrink back: "I... I'm leaving first!"

Before the words had even faded, she had already turned and squeezed into the crowd, quickly disappearing into the flow of people at the street corner without even looking back.

Wang Mengmeng looked in the direction she had disappeared, stunned: "Aren't you going to chase her?"

Chen Yu spoke indifferently: "The place has been found, and the people are here. She isn't important..."

"Is she that scared? Just who is this Third Boss?"

Wang Mengmeng rubbed her chin.

Chen Yu turned his head: "It might be dangerous in a moment. Class Monitor, take everyone to a nearby residential area and find a place to stay. Remember, if there are any issues, send me a private message at any time."

Zhang Wanyue was stunned: "How can that be? We..."

Chen Yu shook his head, cutting her off: "You will only be a burden here and distract me."

Wang Mengmeng stepped forward: "Brother Chen, as an S-rank time-type Awakened, I surely wouldn't..."

Chen Yu spoke ruthlessly: "You are, of course, included."

"...Oh."

Zhang Wanyue was silent for two or three seconds, then nodded: "Fine. Two hundred meters south of the street corner, there is a platform with an awning on the first floor that has a clear view of this side."

Shen Qingci waved her hand: "Let's go."

"Wait."

Chen Yu suddenly spoke: "Senior, you and Dr. Qiao stay behind."

Shen Qingci was stunned, exchanged a glance with Qiao Xi, and nodded.

"Stay safe, Brother Chen..."

"Be careful, Brother Chen..."

"Send a private message if anything happens!"

Amidst the women's exchanges of greetings, only Chen Yu and the two selected women remained.

To be cautious, Qiao Xi's Perception Talent was extremely important, but Qiao Xi's safety could only be entrusted to Shen Qingci.

On the other hand... the women possessed quite a few items, so surviving in the short term would be no problem.

Meanwhile, the gaze of everyone around was drawn to the same direction.

The crowd at the street corner was dispersing to both sides, clearing the way.

A man in a dark gray suit walked out of the crowd. The suit was well-tailored, with clean, sharp shoulder lines.

He wore a pair of thin-rimmed gold glasses. The eyes behind the lenses were long and narrow, with the outer corners slightly drooping.

He had his arm around a young woman. The woman was wearing a water-red camisole mini-dress, with the hem reaching just to the middle of her thighs, revealing two straight, slender legs. She wore a pair of thin-strapped high-heeled sandals on her feet, with the straps wrapped once around her ankles and tied in an exquisite knot.

Behind him were two burly bodyguards.

"Chen Yu?" To everyone's surprise, the man in the suit directly called out Chen Yu's name.

The women: "?"

Under everyone's gaze, the man in the suit, along with the man and two women behind him, came up to Chen Yu and smiled warmly.

"Chen Yu, it really is you."

Chen Yu looked at that face: "You are... Jiang Boyuan?"

For a moment, the face in his memory overlapped with reality.

Jiang Boyuan, the top student in the college entrance exam mathematics section at Haicheng No. 1 High School, and also the city-wide mathematics champion.

Chen Yu only knew that he had gone to Linping to study computer science, and they hadn't had any contact since then.

He hadn't expected to run into him here.

"Hahaha, old classmate, it really is you! I thought it looked like you from a distance, and when I got closer—it was definitely you! You haven't changed much, just taller and more muscular than before!"

Jiang Boyuan warmly patted Chen Yu on the shoulder.

Without waiting for Chen Yu to speak, he continued: "It must have been five or six years since we last met, right? We haven't been in contact since graduation. I came back to Haicheng to look for old classmates for dinner a few times, but they all said you weren't around. I thought you had gone to another city."

As he spoke, his gaze passed over Chen Yu's shoulder, sweeping over the mysterious Shen Qingci, who was wearing a baseball cap and a mask, and then over the poised Qiao Xi.

"Do you only have two teammates?"

"Yeah." Chen Yu nodded indifferently.

Jiang Boyuan looked regretful: "Sigh, sorry, I spoke too much. I'm afraid your teammates met with some misfortune."

He shook his head: "These days, it's not easy to bring two people and arrive safely at the Living Area. Anything can happen on the road. I've encountered similar things before; the Team broke up, people were gone, and you have to gather people again. I know what that feels like."

He lightly brushed the topic aside: "Come on, let's go. Don't stand here in the street under the sun. Let's go inside and sit. Old classmates who haven't seen each other in so long should catch up."

While he was saying this, the woman beside him had already walked forward gracefully.

"Chen Yu? Right?"

She was wearing a water-red camisole dress, her thin-strapped high heels clicking on the asphalt road, and she extended a fair, slender hand.

"My name is Mira, nice to meet you."

Shen Qingci narrowed her eyes, feeling a bit displeased, but naturally, she didn't show it.

Chen Yu lowered his head and gave a light handshake, asking a question he already knew the answer to: "Yeah, you just said go inside and sit. Where are we sitting?"

Jiang Boyuan spoke at the right moment: "Of course, Yan Garden. That's the territory our Team just took over. The tea is already brewed, let's go..."

After saying that, he turned into the road. The two men in suits, who looked like security guards, quickly stepped aside.

Chen Yu followed behind without changing his expression.

"This way." Mira smiled slightly and led Chen Yu deeper into the road.

It had to be said that Mira's figure and looks were impeccable. When her thin-strapped high heels stepped on the stone path, the sway of her waist and hips was just right, and her water-red skirt swayed in the light.

It looked like she was seducing him... This posture would not be inferior even when compared to the women from the Film Academy.

However, Chen Yu spent every day with a large group of beautiful women, so his resistance to beautiful women was already maxed out.

He only looked a few times and then stopped looking.

At the very back, Qiao Xi whispered: "This Jiang Boyuan has very strong energy, probably reaching SSS-rank. That Mira doesn't have much of an energy form..."

Chen Yu nodded secretly and followed.

Jiang Boyuan walked slightly in front: "Yan Garden was just taken over not long ago, and it hasn't been cleaned up much inside, but the parasol trees in the courtyard are nice. It's perfect to sit under them and drink tea this season."

As they walked inside, Chen Yu also saw what the legendary "just taken over not long ago" actually meant.

Because the ground of Yan Garden was full of dark red marks. Looking closely, there were still deep brown lines remaining in the cracks of the stone slabs...
