Chapter 658

While tea was favored at Su Ying's place, it was only wine at Fan Lihua's. The two of them indulged in casual drinking and chitchat. Fan Lihua had been bored lately; her usual practice of martial arts in the courtyard had not been particularly fulfilling.

"Hey, why don't you assign me some tasks?" Fan Lihua suggested.

Cheng Dalei was about to sip his wine. This was not the first time Fan Lihua had made such a suggestion. He replied, "It's not that I don't want to accommodate you. The truth is there's nothing you could handle. I wouldn't dare to let you go into battle, for fear of misfortune. And I doubt you could accomplish much else."

Cheng Dalei was not pulling her leg. He didn't lack capable subordinates - Guan Yu and Qin Man were both peerless fighters, and Zhao Zilong was on the verge of a breakthrough. Fan Lihua used to be really formidable, but in Frog City, her strength was no longer something extraordinary.
