About Me Being Adopted by Talula (Complete).

Summary

In a quiet room of the Imperial Guard, Lin Geri, the king of the slums, and Wei Yanwu, the Longmen strategist, reflect on their past struggles and the challenges they face. Wei expresses his disdain for a common enemy and admits he agreed to a plan for the younger generation's trial, to avoid conflict with Lin, whom he considers a friend. As they laugh and reminisce, they are interrupted by Wenyue, who catches them smoking together. Meanwhile, Orson returns to the Guard Hall after a confrontation regarding the state of the slums, helping to clean up minor damage. Despite being a noble, he is seen as a mere caretaker by the others, often attracting curious glances. His efforts to assist others, especially Ch'en Hui-jie, indicate his commitment to helping the community, albeit with some comedic misunderstandings about his role. Ch'en, now determined to help manage the slums, temporarily relinquishes her position of authority, marking a significant shift from her previous workaholic tendencies. Talula, concerned about Ch'en's impulsiveness, encourages her to reconsider her decision in light of their collective goals but ultimately supports her sister's commitment. They argue but come to a consensus: working together, they can make a difference in Longmen's struggles. The chapter closes with Orson suggesting they hold a welcome party, emphasizing the importance of community and support among friends as their relationships deepen amid the ongoing challenges they face.
