"Sending this much first, I'll think of other ways later," Chang Geng said. "Now the Zhang Ling Law has been abolished. Several more steel armor institutes have been added to the Ling Shu Institute this month. They are recruiting talents from all Mechanics across the country, anyone who has made great achievements in the field of steel armors and machines, no matter their origin, everyone has the opportunity to enter the Ling Shu Institute. Master Feng Han even swore that there was nothing frightening about the Westerners' Sea Monster. If you give him time, he can do it."

"Master Feng Han has never had enough food in his life. Is it necessary to eat a bowl and pour a bowl?" Gu Yun laughed. "Besides looking scary and consuming money, that Sea Monster had no other use. It does not matter whether there are funds. Even with Light Cavalry, I will kick those people that dare to come to someone's territory to display their might back to their home sooner or later, you..."

He meant to say, 'you don't have to push yourself too hard', but as he turned slightly, half of his hand wrapped in steel armor hit Chang Geng's palm. Chang Geng unconsciously grabbed hold of his painfully frozen hand, it was then covered by his broad court attire, inside the sleeve was filled with the warmth of a human body.

It was not that Chang Geng could not control himself, but due to Gu Yun's unexpected embrace, which was like an open fire, it lit up all the unrealistic expectations within him.

He looked straight at Gu Yun and asked, "What?"

Gu Yun forgot his words for the second time in a day.

From an outsider's point of view, the two stared at each other as if they were ill for a moment. Gu Yun stood stiff for a long time and did not respond. Chang Geng's face gradually grew dim, ridiculing himself inside and thinkingt: As expected, it is only my imagination.

Just as he was about to retreat, Chang Geng's pupils suddenly shrank. Under the long sleeve, Gu Yun held his hand in return. His cold and stiff fingers, with the strength of steel armor, brought no hint of avoidance or hesitation.
