The comments said I was deeply affectionate, I just added points by using an alternate account.

She was a girl dressed in the same clothes as her mother, with smooth black hair draped over her shoulders, but her face still carried a hint of youthful naiveté.

She seemed to have been startled by the commotion and had just turned around.

The face that Chen Guan knew all too well—a handsome and gentle face—was now filled with shock.

Su Yuehe.

When Su Yuehe saw Chen Guan's face, stained with blood and dust, her usually gentle and smiling eyes trembled.

Her lips parted, and a breath escaped from her throat, as if a name was about to burst out, but something blocked it, preventing her from uttering a single syllable.

Time stretched out infinitely at this moment.

Chen Guan's mind went blank with a buzz.

All thoughts vanished the moment he saw Su Yuehe's face, turning into ruins.

Why?

Why is she here?

The white tiger in front of Chen Guan also changed its expression. It turned its head away from Chen Guan and fixed its gaze on Su Jin, the only threatening person present.

"Your Excellency Speaker."

When the white tiger spoke, the nonchalant tone in its voice vanished completely, leaving only a sense of confrontation between beings of the same level.

"What a grand welcome! I never expected that His Excellency the Speaker would personally greet you. I am truly honored."

Su Jin ignored the provocation in his words. She raised her hand and gently placed it on Su Yuehe's shoulder beside her. The gesture was soothing, yet it carried an unyielding force.

Su Yuehe's body trembled slightly, and she ultimately swallowed back the name that was about to be uttered.

After completing this action, Su Jin's gaze returned to the white tiger. Her voice was calm and cold, yet it caused the pressure in the entire control room to rise sharply.

"If the intelligence is correct, it's Baihu, isn't it? It's been a long time."

"I never imagined the Guiyuan Group would be this audacious. Do you even know where you are?"

Baihu smiled broadly: "Of course I know."

The White Tiger's provocation went unanswered, failing to cause any ripples.

Su Jin's gaze passed right through him and landed squarely on Chen Guan.

Chen Guan felt as if all the air in the control room had been sucked out; with each breath, his throat felt like it was filled with ice shards.

"It seems you haven't taken what I said to heart at all."

Her voice wasn't loud, but in an instant, the whole world seemed to be filled with only her voice echoing in our ears.

Chen Guan's mind went blank.

She knows?

When did she find out?

Did I reveal something during the four-school league?

No, possibly even earlier.

Even before they met, she probably already saw through everything. In an instant, Su Jin's image in his mind suddenly rose several times over.

Those warnings that had been ignored now seemed like real swords hanging overhead.

"Are you still determined to be my enemy, and to be an enemy of humanity?"

Su Jin spoke again, this time as a question, a verdict against someone who refused to repent.

Chen Guan's gaze involuntarily shifted and landed on Su Yuehe's face.

The girl's lips moved, and her eyes, which always held a gentle smile, were now filled with shock and a pain he couldn't understand.

A name seemed about to burst from her throat, but in the end, she just clenched her fists tighter, her nails digging into her palms, and swallowed all the words back.

Her silence made Chen Guan feel as if a huge rock was pressing down on his chest, and every breath he took was tinged with the smell of blood.

Just as the frozen silence was driving people crazy, a lazy voice appeared out of place in Chen Guan's mind.

"That woman with glasses, don't be fooled by her standing still. She has actually used her mental power to lock down the positions of the two of you."

"She's a twelfth-order knowledge system expert, so be careful, or she might turn your brain into a complete mess if you're not careful."

"I know."

Chen Guan gritted his teeth. He knew that if Su Jin insisted on executing him on the spot, Bai Hu might not be able to protect him.

Besides, there's Su Yuehe there...

Damn it! Why isn't my ability to rewind after death?

"Hey, hey, hey, why are you ignoring me, Speaker Su?"

A figure swayed and blocked Chen Guan's view.

It was the White Tiger; he conveniently blocked Su Jin's icy gaze.

The oppressive force that made it hard to breathe crashed into an invisible wall and was forcefully pushed back.

"Don't just chat with my lovely subordinates, Speaker Su."

The white tiger spoke, its tone excessively flippant, and even raised its hand to rub its neck, making a soft click.

Su Jin's gaze finally shifted from the coffin behind her glasses to the white tiger's carefree smile, and for the first time, a subtle ripple appeared in the depths of her eyes.

She didn't speak, but the temperature in the entire control room dropped a few degrees, and Su Jin could sense the White Tiger's strength.

A very troublesome opponent... Su Jin thought.

She was confident she wouldn't lose, and even confident she could win the battle, but she also knew that no matter what, she couldn't keep the man in front of her.

The white tiger's smile widened, and he was perfectly aware of Su Jin's thoughts.

He's not alone. If no news gets back for a long time, someone will naturally come to his aid.

Now that we have no worries, let's go all out!

He turned his head to the side, and there was a fire burning in his smiling eyes.

He whispered a sentence close to Chen Guan's ear in a voice so low that only Chen Guan could hear it.

"That little girl over there is yours."

Chen Guan's heart skipped a beat, and he stopped breathing. To be honest, he would rather be beaten up by that speaker.

Baihu ignored his reaction and, after saying that, strode towards Su Jin in the center of the hall.

He walked slowly, his footsteps echoing in the empty control room, each step striking a chord in one's heart.

Once he left, the terrifying pressure that belonged to Su Jin did not fall on Chen Guan again.

Her entire attention was drawn to the man who approached her.

The entire space was invisibly divided into two battlefields.

One is a confrontation between two entities that stand at the top of the pyramid of the human world.

And the other one.

Chen Guan stiffly turned his head, his gaze passing over the server array that was flashing with a ghostly blue light, and landing on the figure that was still standing in the same place, motionless.

Su Yuehe.

The girl's face was even more stiff than before. She looked at him, her lips moved, but she couldn't utter a single word.

They were only a dozen meters apart, yet it was as if an insurmountable chasm lay between them.
