Ch. 42Chapter 24
Lin Jie and his allies defeated Ouyang Rui’s group, and Shadow agreed to join Xiao Zhan rather than return to the Evolution Company. After the injured heroes recovered, Lin Jie saw his teammates attracting romance while he remained unlucky, and the news reported the criminals’ arrest and the heroes’ victory.
- Lin Jie and Dong Xue'er confronted Shadow, who held the wounded Xiao Zhan at knifepoint, and Xiao Zhan persuaded her to join him with promises of a new identity and generous benefits.
- Shadow released Xiao Zhan and accepted the job, then Xiao Zhan fainted and Lin Jie left to check on Glasses.
- Glasses woke on a healer’s lap and learned that Dong Xiaoye had stayed beside him, while Lin Jie complained that his friends were finding romance after he did the fighting.
- Lin Jie called Thirteen, saw a Sea Tribe woman kiss him goodbye, and hung up in frustration before inviting nearby muscular men to eat roasted lovebirds.
- Lin Wan and Lin Mumu watched the news report that Ouyang Rui and Hunter had been arrested for their roles in the bioweapons case and illegal human experimentation.
