Guan Weiyun shook his head helplessly and casually put the portrait aside.
"Xiao Hei, you need to lose weight."
The black panther's pupils moved, and it glared at him hard.
*Master hasn't said I'm fat, but you're saying it!*
It shook its head, then glanced at a black and white piece of paper on the desk.
The black panther's red pupils contracted to their smallest point in an instant.
*The person on it looks so much like Master?*
Suddenly, it lunged at the desk, but unaware of its own weight, its leap sent Guan Weiyun's entire desk tumbling over.
With a loud "bang."
All the documents scattered on the floor.
Guan Weiyun's face immediately darkened like charcoal.
For the past year, Xiao Hei had been very well-behaved, readily taking on zombies when they went out.
Except for eating a bit more and sleeping a bit more than usual, there was nothing else.
He had been far too indulgent of it!
"Xiao Hei!"
The black panther showed no reaction, its red eyes flashing with excitement.
It stomped around in the pile of papers.
*Master!! Where are you!*
Just as Guan Weiyun was about to grab a stick to beat it, it suddenly picked up a portrait in its mouth.
The young girl's features were exquisitely beautiful, unparalleled. Her dark eyes, however, were filled with hatred and coldness. Her nose was straight and delicate, and her lips curved into a sarcastic smile.
Guan Weiyun was momentarily stunned. He crouched down to examine it carefully.
He had been unable to recognize faces since childhood.
Even if he had glanced at the portrait earlier, he wouldn't have been able to see clearly who it was.
Paired with this leopard's face, he could actually discern one or two things.
Guan Weiyun found it astonishing. This was certainly not a coincidence.
"Xiao Hei, is it her?"
The black panther almost shook its head off. It *was* her!! Master!!
Suddenly, Guan Weiyun chuckled and said softly, "I finally found you. So you're Xu Qian."
A year ago, they had met at Hope Base, but he hadn't paid attention, nor did he want to know.
Now, he was the person in charge of Hope Base.
A month ago, Liu Hao abdicated, and Guan Weiyun took over.
Guan Weiyun, capable and outstanding at a young age, possessed the ability to devour flames. As long as a little fire was present, anything, no matter what it was, would be incinerated into ashes.
Moreover, his combat strength and management skills were already very strong.
Hope Base was one of the most populous in the country, yet no one could defeat him.
Everyone was very impressed.
Guan Weiyun was also Liu Hao's nephew, and their relationship was naturally deep. Liu Hao felt he could handle it and passed the responsibility to him.
After all, he was getting older, and his ability had remained stagnant at level two. He had relied solely on his past reputation.
Without a sufficiently powerful manager to suppress these people, Hope Base would sooner or later be handed over.
It was better to transfer it sooner rather than later.
Guan Weiyun came back to his senses and reached out to take the wanted poster from its mouth, but the leopard bit down hard and wouldn't let go.
His expression turned cold, and he growled, "Xiao Hei, give it to me!"
The black panther became stubborn at this point, refusing to give it up no matter how much he called.
Guan Weiyun came to his senses and suddenly felt it was childish to fight a leopard over a woman.
He took off his jacket, rolled up the sleeves of his black shirt, revealing his well-built arm, with thick veins covering his forearm.
The black panther narrowed its beastly eyes and retreated a few steps.
*If you don't agree, you'll fight and bully me. Shameless!*
As expected, the man flashed and instantly appeared behind the black panther, his hands gripping its neck tightly.
"Are you going to let go or not?"
The black panther ignored him. It lifted its paws and bolted towards the garden, frantically trying to shake off the person on its back.
