Wanda had been so busy lately that she had lost quite a bit of weight. Her pretty face, once slightly baby-faced, had become less cute and gained a touch of mature charm.
The spring evening breeze carried a hint of gentleness and warmth. Perhaps this was what it felt like to be caressed by the spring breeze. Holding hands like an ordinary couple, the two of them enjoyed their peaceful time together.
There were plenty of couples and married pairs like them in the park. Everyone was enjoying this rare bit of leisure. After all, people needed to relax in such a fast-paced era.
As she listened to everyone around them discussing Mechanical Ascension, Wanda looked at the man beside her with eyes full of admiration.
This was probably what it meant to stay silent until one made a stunning debut!
"Don't move! Hand over all the money you have!"
Yet there were always idiots who ruined their lovely mood. Muggings were commonplace in America, after all...
Sure enough, two Black guys approached them head-on, twirling their daggers with practiced ease. They clearly knew how to handle them.
"Are you sure you want to rob us? I think you'd be better off buying a gun. Isn't using a dagger a little outdated?"
Chen Xi narrowed his eyes and teased them with a smile.
Robbing people with a dagger these days? In an era where everyone had a handgun, weren't they afraid someone would pull out money and shoot them?
"Oh! Fuck! Quit talking shit! Believe it or not, I'll put a white blade in and pull out a red one!"
The Black guy in the lead was apparently a hothead. He shouted coldly, swearing under his breath.
Yet, to their surprise, the couple opposite them was not afraid at all.
