Chapter 2363 - 2366: As Beautiful as a Pink Rose

When Shen Qiang walked into the room of the stunning actress Song Weiyin, it was already eleven at night. She hadn't gone to sleep, standing gracefully on the balcony, speaking with the beautiful Mermaid Princess Qian Ning.

It was a bit late, but there was no other way. After all, after the great battle, there were many things to handle.

Throughout the entire battle with Gong Ziyi, Heshenghe suffered zero casualties, while fifty-three cultivators from the Abyss were killed. Such a casualty comparison was unbelievable for any sect in the Cultivation World, but for Shen Qiang, it was nothing out of the ordinary.

On his way back, Shen Qiang had invited the War God of the Dragon Group, but he refused to come. Shen Qiang knew the War God appeared merely for the sake of Gong Ziyi's grandfather, so he couldn't force it.

Not only that.

Seeing the War God of the Dragon Group, Shen Qiang had an overwhelming urge to confront him.

The beautiful Nalan Tianyu from the Undying Phoenix Clan, the head of the Dragon Group's Demon Taming Safety Department.

Since the Alchemist Convention, Shen Qiang hadn't had a chance to meet her. Compared to Beautiful Demon Fox Chu Qing, Shen Qiang was sure that Nalan Tianyu was more suitable to help him manage the myriad demons of Heshenghe when he wasn't around.

Firstly, because she herself belonged to the Undying Phoenix Clan and was a half-demon, and secondly, it was also her specialty.

Especially when he heard that she was frequently executing dangerous missions, Shen Qiang wanted even more for her to come to Heshenghe.

However, the timing wasn't quite right yet.

Moreover, during the recent battle, they evaluated everyone's performance and rewarded or punished accordingly. In addition, during this period, Shen Qiang did the most crucial thing with Heshenghe, which was to summarize experiences and simply review the events.

He tallied up various details throughout the entire battle process.

There were many mistakes, and if it weren't for Shen Qiang's timely arrival, coupled with the strength of Shen Qiang, Uncle Gui, and Qingxuan, without a doubt, it would have been Heshenghe that was wiped out.

Besides that.

The most time-consuming matter for Shen Qiang, surprisingly, was Yu Wenzi, with her seductive body, graceful demeanor, stunning looks, and expertise in playing various musical instruments.

Her appearance was unexpected for Shen Qiang.

Shen Qiang couldn't figure out how she knew about this kind of thing.

It was eerie.

Only a few people in Heshenghe knew about this matter, and no one should have informed her. Qian Ning wasn't with her, and Gong Ziyi seemed unrelated to her, yet she appeared in the most intense part of the battle, participating as if she were one of Heshenghe's own.

Although there was doubt in his heart,

Shen Qiang inexplicably felt goodwill.

After all, her willingness to step forward was also a recognition of Shen Qiang and Heshenghe, that was certain without a doubt.

But whether she had any ulterior motives, Shen Qiang was unsure.

So Shen Qiang chatted with her for a while, in the front courtyard of the Mountain Villa.

Most of the details were meaningless polite words, with the main content being focused on Qian Ning's studio, where she would join as a Musician.

And the location wasn't at Heshenghe Mountain Villa but in Jin City.

Because it's close to the sea there.

In that place, Qian Ning is very powerful.

Besides, in the back residence of Heshenghe, it was Shen Qiang's family living there. The safety of the women and children was crucial, and Shen Qiang didn't want anyone not utterly trustworthy to get close there.

So even though he hurriedly dealt with all these matters, it was already this late.

"Shen Qiang is here, so you talk, I'll go rest." Jinli Qian Ning smiled charmingly and then left.

Song Weiyin called her a few times, but she didn't stop her.

After she left,

The lovely Song Weiyin inexplicably became shy, not knowing what she was thinking, suddenly fell silent.

At this moment, the bright moon was radiant. Although there were still clouds in the sky, Shen Qiang smiled as he walked onto the balcony.

This is the second floor; there aren't any exceptionally beautiful views at night.

But fortunately, the Song Weiyin by his side, under the bright moonlight, was as beautiful as a pink rose. Not only did she emit a faint, sweet scent, but her nervousness, awkwardness, and unease seemed entirely unaccustomed to the new environment, which made Shen Qiang inexplicably want to laugh.

Leaning on the balcony, Shen Qiang walked to Song Weiyin's side and smiled, "You're afraid of me."

Song Weiyin hesitated for a moment, then took a deep breath, turned to look at the front courtyard of the Mountain Villa, where the lights were still on, and said softly, "When you said you would betray me for Heshenghe's people, I was truly scared, but later I thought you were probably saying that to force Gong Ziyi to give in."

Shen Qiang smiled and said, "What if I told you I meant it at the time?"

Song Weiyin was stunned, then sighed, "Can you say something that doesn't terrify me?"

"I kept my promise," Shen Qiang smiled at the lovely Song Weiyin and continued, "Moreover, I actually want to tell you that even though it's your first time here, in my heart, you've long been a part of this place, so I will protect you by any means necessary."

Instantly, Song Weiyin was taken aback, then she suddenly thought of Mirage Qimeng. Her beautiful eyes brightened, her face inexplicably shy, yet filled with a happiness indescribable in words: "Well... Qimeng doesn't really like me."

"You can't be too greedy. It's enough that I like you here, and even if she doesn't like you, it doesn't matter; she will still choose to protect you."

The smile on Shen Qiang's lips left Song Weiyin in a daze.

Suddenly feeling nervous, she hesitated in silence for a moment, then suddenly said, "Actually, I'm really scared because I've staked everything, I haven't been able to sleep these past few days."

Shen Qiang laughed, "Can't sleep? Then you're thinking of me?"

The lovely Song Weiyin's face flushed instantly, she murmured in a shy voice under Shen Qiang's astonished gaze, "I've been worried about you, not knowing what you went to do. I know it's dangerous, so on set I was distracted, always saying the wrong lines, forgetting what I should be performing. So I told myself I must stop thinking of you, but the more I try that, the more I think of you."

Hearing this, Shen Qiang laughed, stood in front of the lovely Song Weiyin, and said, "Give me your hand."

In an instant, Song Weiyin's beautiful eyes stared unblinkingly at Shen Qiang. Not only did her expression suddenly turn shy, but in her furtive, hesitant gaze, there was an inexplicable anticipation.

Yet despite this, she still placed her fair, tender little hand in Shen Qiang's hand.

Holding her soft, fragrant jade-like hand, Shen Qiang smiled and took out a ring embedded with ruby from his Storage Ring, putting it on her hand amidst her astonished gaze.

"You're truly beautiful." Shen Qiang said with an excited look.
