Lin An looked down and grabbed her round little belly with one hand.
Gu Yue kicked twice, but couldn't break free.
"Huh?"
She looked up at Lin An in confusion, her big silver-purple eyes filled with incomprehension.
Her expression clearly asked, Why won't you let me hit them?
Lin An ignored her outright and looked up at the group opposite him.
"So what exactly are you here for?"
Meanwhile, [Heaven's Favor] showed no reaction whatsoever.
In other words, at least for now, these people bore him no genuine malice. They weren't here to fight him to the death.
That only baffled Lin An more.
If they weren't here to fight or cause trouble, why block the way first thing in the morning?
Held against his chest, Gu Yue couldn't get out. Then her little head turned, and a look of sudden realization appeared on her face.
"I know!"
Lin An: "?"
Gu Yue instantly felt she had discovered the truth.
"They must be here to ride my wife's coattails."
She stuck out a little paw and held it open with complete self-assurance.
"Hey, have you paid your licensing fees? If you want to ride those coattails, pay tribute first."
She was clearly just a tiny, adorable creature, yet the expression on her little face was outrageously arrogant. With her chin slightly raised, she looked as though collecting money was her natural right.
Zhang Yangzi: "..."
Wei Xiaofeng: "..."
Wang Jinxi fell silent for a while. In the end, the one who normally spoke the least was the first to speak.
"Actually... there's something I'd like to discuss."
As he spoke, he glanced at Lin An first, then shifted his gaze to Tang Wuling.
Tang Wuling frowned slightly and folded her arms across her chest.
"Whatever it is, say it here."
