Kisses Make Me Grow Taller - Chapter 85
Mu Chongyan did not have the consciousness of being a daughter-in-law. He not only slapped Bai Rong’s ass, but also swept the person into the quilt. Bai Rong stared at the dark eyes, arched like a caterpillar, and his face was red Then he broke free from the quilt, and then faced a small drum, “Aooo” rushed to Mu Chongyan who was going to open the door and leave!
Strong movements! Ferocious!
Mu Chongyan felt a sudden death force choked his throat.
“… cough–cough cough … Rong Rong … Rong Rong you are going to murder me …” Having said that, Mu Chongyan’s first reaction was to raise his hand and gently grasp Bai Rong’s wrist, for fear He fell, and then put one hand under Bai Rong’s buttocks, holding it up and gently raising it, Bai Rong easily ridden on Mu Chongyan’s waist, two arms circled pastoral Chongyan’s neck and small chin happened to be able to touch the top of Mu Chongyan’s head.
Suddenly, the tiger that was hungry by the hungry tiger turned into a little daughter-in-law who was carried on her back. Bai Rong froze for a moment, then a flash of red flashed quickly on her face, shy and sullen …
How is this different from what he imagined!
Shouldn’t it be that he violently threw Mu Chongyan, and then softly shouted, “My husband is wrong … forgive me …” ! !
Now what’s going on with this situation! ! !
Bai Rong’s wry eyes turned, and a new plan suddenly rushed into the heart.The next two long legs immediately fiercely clamped Mu Chongyan’s waist, and the calf pressed against Mu Chongyan’s tight abdominal muscles. Balance has also rubbed unconsciously …
“!!!” Mu Chongyan suddenly stiffened, and a light, soft and fluffy demon rushed from the waist and abdomen to the whole body, as if with a crack of a small current, the heart jumped violently, ears The whole face was stained with red, and the whole person seemed to be thrown into the sun and the whole body was hot and tough …
Seeing no movement, Bai Rong lifted his chin proudly, and a sweet dimple was exposed on his cheek, thinking that Mu Chongyan was subdued by the new strategy he implemented. “, To consolidate his image of bravery and fierceness and the status of an absolute tough guy, but just opened his mouth and suddenly found that his family, Chongyan, was stiff and terrible, with a face on the floor without a smile, and light-colored lips. Stretched up …
Bai Rong’s opened mouth slowly closed again, suddenly a little guilty, he just wouldn’t behave too fiercely, angered his wife? ! !
The more I thought about it, the more likely it was. Bai Rong raised his hand guiltily and gently poked Xiamu Chongyan’s face, lowering his head softly and saying: “Chongyan … what’s wrong with you …?”
Warm breath blows softly on the ears, Mu Chongyan suddenly became stiff, the whole person was numb, the heart seemed to break through the chest, and the palm of Bai Rong became extremely hot. Feeling like this would be bad, Mu Chongyan inhaled secretly, pulled up his stiff legs and walked to the bed in the bedroom, sat down and broke Bai Rong’s arms around his neck and put the person on the bed, then hesitated Stand up and speed up without a word and go out.
“…” Bai Rong was sitting on the bed holding the quilt with a small face on his face, watching Mu Chongyan close the door without saying a word and left.
He … he wouldn’t really make his daughter-in-law angry …
“Ahhhh!” Bai Rong fell on the bed with a “slam” and pulled his quilt over his head.
Finished, he made his daughter-in-law angry, no longer a perfect husband …
When Mu Chongyan returned to the living room, his face was red and heavy. He surprised Lu Kun, who was about to go to the toilet, but considering that this was never something he could solve, he silently shut his mouth and walked past. .
Mu Chongyan lay back on the sofa and closed his eyes slowly. His slender fingers clearly pressed his temples.
Finished, he is not a beast … how could he just have the idea of pressing the sweet cake on the bed and kissing his lips …
Bai Rong’s ruddy lips flickered in his mind, Mu Chongyan’s throat was hot, and he immediately felt more like a beast. The fingers holding the temple can’t help but double the force …
After Lu Kun came back from the toilet, he looked at Mu Chongyan like this, and his heart jumped again.
Pressing his temple so hard … he thought Mu Chongyan was going to commit suicide …
…
The next day, Luya got up first and started cooking in the kitchen.
There was no way. After taking a bath, he had a super soft bed. He slept hugely overnight and woke up at dawn. He was too excited to fall asleep, and he had no work to do, so he could only cook.
While Luya was cooking, the rest of the people got up and washed one after another. When Luya put the rice on the table, they were in the living room.
The table is a rectangular table. Bai Rong and Kuku are sitting on one side, and Lu Ya and Lu Kun are sitting on the other side. Mu Chongyan subconsciously wanted to sit next to Bai Rong, but suddenly thought of yesterday ’s things, he took a step. Walked to Lu Kun and sat down.
He can’t indulge himself like this anymore, otherwise he can’t guarantee whether he will kiss the sweet cake with beasts …
Huo Ran’s smile on Bai Rong’s face froze, his eyes gradually filled with a sense of grievances, his mouth squeezed into a straight line.
Mu Chongyan was really angry yesterday.
Kuku glanced at her and finally didn’t come to tease his brother’s Mu Chongyan, and then looked at his brother’s grievances while drinking porridge silently.
This **** didn’t hurt his brother so quickly, it was not a good person! ! !
Mu Chongyan looked at Bai Rong’s grievances, and suddenly felt a squeeze in his heart. He couldn’t help but stretch out his hands to rub the little sweet cake’s hair to comfort him. Became a punch.
Luya silently swept two apparently abnormal people, silently biting a big bite of pancakes and burying his head in bitter eating.
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh ago! Since his idol and Brother Mu had an emotional crisis? ! !
Bai Rong was guilty and grieved in his heart. He did not lift the head of the bowl, and his face was buried.
His daughter-in-law was so angry that he didn’t even sit with him for dinner … so uncomfortable …
But … how can he coax his daughter-in-law …
“Have some food.” A chopstick, red daisy, was suddenly caught in the bowl.
“!!!” Hearing the familiar soft voice, Bai Rong Huo Ran raised his head, Wu Liang’s eyes widened slightly, a glimmer of joy slipped across his eyes.
“Good boy, eat more and go out later.” Looking at Bai Rong’s slowly brightened smile, Mu Chongyan’s heart was soft and sweet, and at the same time mixed with some anger towards himself.
I just made up my mind to stay away from Xiao Tian, but he couldn’t control it so quickly, he was really a beast …
But there is no way, looking at the loss of Xiao Tian’s lingering look, he can’t control it at all, it seems that he can only minimize the intimacy of other aspects, and … just put a dish, it should … …
Seeing Mu Chongyan smiled softly at him, he lowered his head and said nothing. Bai Rong cheeked, and scooped a spoonful of porridge into his mouth.
It seems that his wife does not forgive him completely, but it does not matter, he will slowly melt his wife!
After several people finished their breakfast, they packed up the door and rushed to the most prosperous center of District D.
The most prosperous area in District D is full of restaurants, ready-to-wear stores, exotic beast acquisition points, fur trading points, entertainment malls, department store tool stores, scattered two or three weapon stores, and the most lively and eye-catching servants The Guild Building.
The Mercenary Guild Building is located in the center of the prosperous area. It covers an area of tens of hectares and is more than 100 meters high. The whole building shines with black metallic luster, and there is no trace of variegation. From afar, it looks like a sleeping violent beast, The sense of aggression and oppression are very strong. According to Lu Kun, the mercenary guild buildings in all areas of the security zone are like this, and they are the styles designated by the rulers here.
Inexplicably, the ruler’s taste was somewhat suppressed. Bai Rong frowned slightly, looked up at the dark building, and walked up with Mu Chongyan.
There are more than a thousand mercenary regiments registered in the Mercenary Guild, far more than Bai Rong imagined, but it is no wonder that as a city with 8 million people in District D, 1 million of them are mercenaries. In addition to the fact that mercenaries are the highest-paying occupations in the security zone, as long as they are physically strong, they will try to apply for mercenaries, and because in order to better cope with the tide of beasts, the rulers here also encourage everyone Going to be a mercenary to kill strange beasts, a lot of privileges are granted to the mercenaries, and the higher the mercenary level, the more privileges.
For example, a third-level mercenary can reduce the cost of staying in the city for seven days every month, and the city entrance fee for entering the area c can also be reduced by 20%. This calculation can save a large amount of gray coins. These privileges are not to be avoided. Heartbeat, but once injured can no longer continue to mercenaries, the privilege will be withdrawn immediately.
The more than 1,000 mercenary regiments in area d are all below the third-level mercenary regiment, among which there are ten third-level mercenary regiments, more than 200 second-level mercenary regiments, and the rest are all first-level mercenary regiments. The difference is also very large, with two or three hundred people at the most and only seven or eight people at the least.
Some of the mercenary groups are independent, while others are subgroups of some large families. Mu Chongyan is not prepared to join any mercenary group. The rights disputes and intrigues in the mercenary group are indispensable. He is not interested in going. Make stepping stones for those people.
But … there are many benefits in the mercenary regiment, so he is not prepared to give up this approach.
“Chong Yan … shall we also apply for the mercenary regiment?” Bai Rong looked at the constantly scrolling information on the huge screen in front of him. Somewhat anxious, although he was very perceptive, he acted slowly, and would be rejected. Right …
And he did not believe that after encountering the unbeatable beast, the group of people would take him to escape together.
“Of course not.” Mu Chongyan looked at the registration rules of the top mercenary group. His eyes flashed slightly. A mercenary group must have at least seven people, but now they only have five. Even if they want to register a mercenary group, they are still lacking. Two people.
“Do you want to register a mercenary regiment?” Lu Kun saw Mu Chongyan staring at the above rule information all the time, and there was a trace of surprise in his eyes.
He thought that Mu Chongyan would not want to enter the general mercenary regiment, but did not dare to think that he would directly register the mercenary regiment …
“Well, but two people are still missing.” Mu Chongyan looked across the crowded hall, frowning slightly between his brows.
“It would be nice if I could meet two more acquaintances.” Bai Rong sighed, but suddenly heard a teasing whistle in his ear, with a smile, “Little cute, you want to register for the mercenary group what?”
The words were very close to his ears, and Bai Rong jumped back in shock, watching the brown-haired brown eyes in front of his eyes with a gentle smile … Bah, the swaying man, angry: “Who are you calling? It! “
“Call you, little cute …” Vitas sighed regretfully when he saw the beautiful boy in front of him, “Little cute … you are so vigilant about what I do?”
Seeing this frivolous man actually dare to tease his sweet cake over and over again, Mu Chongyan’s forehead and blue muscles angered, pulling Bai Rong behind him, cold eyes glanced hard at the man, “Go!”
“Your kid!” If you want to be driven out of the safety zone, kneel down and apologize to Master Vitas !!! “The man with a big face next to the man suddenly screamed and screamed at the beads, and Tumo Xingzi collapsed everywhere. It’s all, “Where are you from the trash, dare to talk to Master Vitas like this? !!!”
“Eh … Mandal, you’re too rude.” Vitas frowned, and his soft brown eyes looked at the man next to him unpleasantly.
“Sorry … Sorry young master, I … I’m just angry … This group of inferiors is too ignorant!” Mandal immediately nodded and apologized apologetically, a loyal protector resented, “You shouldn’t be Coming to this area d, there are too many low-quality people here. “
Seeing this man scolding them into **** in just a few words, he also indirectly pointed out that this master-like person came from a high-level urban area to imply that they were aware of the current affairs, and Bai Rong was all angry, and his lips twitched beautifully. Seeing Navitas’ eyes bright.
“Since it’s a young man in a high-level city, don’t come to District D. The eight million people here can’t welcome your big frame.” Bai Rong glanced at Vitas coldly, turning his head to look Mu Chongyan, “Chongyan … let’s go.”
“Ehhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh … I do n’t want to go first …” Vitas glanced fiercely at Mandal and quickly stopped a few people in one step. Angry, you just entered the security zone. Although the minimum limit for this mercenary regiment is seven, it is not impossible to operate … “
He finally saw a person who was so close to his eyes, so he couldn’t be offended!
“We are not rare!” Bai Rong left Mu Chongyan’s arm before leaving. He just thought about it. If this mercenary corps requires only a number of people to register, he can go to two honest people and name it, then promise Some benefits.
“Eh, I can admit that I’m wrong, can’t I?” Vitas stretched out his hand to pull people, but Mu Chongyan fell out and grabbed his wrist.
In the face of him, playing with sweet cakes, it’s almost dead!
“Ah–!” Huo Ran was thrown down hard, and Vitas felt that his tail bones were about to break, and there was a flash of anger in his eyes, but at the same time, he was a little vigilant in his heart. The man who was able to throw him out so easily, it seems that the force value is very high, not to be underestimated!
“Fuck you to death !!!”
Several people next to Vitas suddenly rolled up their sleeves and came up to suppress Mu Chongyan, but Vitas was angrily hugged, “Come back!”
These people have badly damaged him over and over again. If it is not the right time, he must deal with them!
“Master … This **** dared to deal with you, you must learn!” Mandal helped Vitas up, with a very faithful look, angry and distressed on the face, and it seemed to want to help Vitas rub Tail bone.
“If it weren’t for you, could they be so angry? !!!” Vitas narrowed his eyes in the direction of the departure of Bai Rong, snorted, and then a slight flirty laugh appeared on the corner of his lips again, “Go and investigate those people, Pay attention, don’t allow them to be alarmed or embarrassed. “
“Okay … Okay, I’ll send someone to investigate immediately.” There was a glimmer of light in Mandal’s eyes, and the heart was relieved. He smiled: “Master … The information about the beauty you have investigated before has been collected. , You see … do you want … “
“Forget it … I’m not in a mood today.” Vitas looked sad and disheartened for Yi, turned around and left, “Go back and stop shopping …”
“Okay, Master Vitas … The meals and bathrooms in the villa are ready, you can just go back and enjoy …”
***
Until he walked out of the mercenary group, Mu Chongyan was under extreme low pressure, and his face was so thick that he could squeeze out ink, and he did not expect that he could just make a joke because of a few people. Anger, and at the same time it was terribly sour in his heart, was like turning over a pot of old vinegar, and it hurt him.
“… cough, Chongyan …” Seeing no one dared to speak to Mu Chongyan, Bai Rong coughed and dragged Mu Chongyan’s arm, “What shall we do next?”
“… What do you want to do …?” Mu Chongyan lowered his head, his eyes softened by two points when he touched Bai Rong.
“Is n’t he saying that we want seven people? Let ’s go find two more people. The mercenary regiments are promoted from the first level, and the first-level mercenary regiment can only be a first-level mercenary. Counting intern mercenaries, and mercenaries below the third level are not privileged, so the review should not be very strict, we can find two people who are honest and honest, or two people who are strong and have good temperament. … “Bai Rong shook Mu Chongyan’s arm,” What do you think … “
The irritability and rolling vinegar were overwhelmed by this shaking, and Mu Chongyan’s overall momentum softened, “Okay … do what you say …”
The momentary change of Mu Chongyan left a few people nearby, and Lu Kun glanced complexly at the sky, and said: “… If there is a name, I have someone to choose.”
“Huh?” Bai Rong looked sideways at Lu Kun. “Who?”
“The neighbours I met in the safe area before, that family is of good character and can be trusted. He helped us when my father was injured.” Although the help was only a mere salary, he was still grateful.
“… Well, okay …” Bai Rong nodded. “What happened to the family?”
“It’s a father with two children. The two children are dragons and phoenixes. They are one year older than Luya. Both siblings are not in good health. Generally, they can only do some light work, so … there should be no mercenaries group.”
“Then … let’s go and see, where does the family live?”
“Living in the Southern District, it takes more than two hours to walk from here.” Lu Kun’s voice just fell, and a car like a car passed by the side, which set a few people in a bleak setting …
“Then Nan District is not too close to the entrance of the safety zone, or let’s go to hunt the beast first.” Bai Rong didn’t look at the car at all, but looked at the time, “Now it’s only nine o’clock, Enough for us to go out to kill the grunts. “
“I agree.” Lu Kun nodded.
“I agree.” Kuku and Luya followed.
“Then let’s go now.” Mu Chongyan patted Bai Rong’s shoulder lightly. “When we come back, we will go to the family to discuss. If not, let’s discuss other methods, OK?”
“Okay.” Bai Rong raised his lips slightly and nodded.
It took several hours for the people to reach the gathering place of the grunts, and hunted twelve grunts for an hour and a half, and then dragged them to the place where the monsters were bought in the gray area, and after getting 36 ash coins, Only then returned to the safe area and went to the south area to find the house where Lu Kun said.
Lu Kun took a few people to turn around a dozen small alleys, then stopped at the end of a broken and dirty small alley, Lu Kun raised his hand and knocked on the door.
“Excuse me, is anyone there?”
“Who …” Half a minute later, a somewhat hoarse female voice came over.
“Is it Lin Shu?” Lu Kun knocked on the door again, “I am Lu Kun.”
“Brother Lukun? !!!” The female voice was stunned, and then she was overjoyed. The sound of footsteps immediately became hurried and messy, and soon the closed wooden door creaked open.
A skinny girl with a yellow complexion glared, excited and rejoiced, her eyes slightly flushed: “Really you, Brother Lu Kun and Brother Luya ?!”
“It’s us, Sister Lin Shu, Brother Lin He and Uncle Lin?” Seeing the former partner again, Lu Ya was also very happy and showed a big smile.
As soon as Luya mentioned the other two people, Lin Shu’s eyes suddenly turned red, and the hand holding the door frame was a little weak. “Brother, he is currently working in the Laruo restaurant, and his father … he has left.”
“Uncle Lin …” Lu Ya opened her eyes in amazement, opened her mouth but didn’t know what to say, Lu Kun raised her hand and patted Lu Ya’s shoulder, said: “How did he get to La Ruo Xiaohe?” The restaurant, which is a well-known grilled leather shop, is exhausted to death but only gives a half-gray coin a day. How do you two live? “
“No way, Xiaohe can’t find any other job. The owner of the Lara restaurant has changed a little bit recently and will let Xiaohe bring some food back …” Lin Shu wiped the foam on his hand, “and I did the laundry When they do laundry in the shop, they will give me a half-grey coin a day, which adds up to … enough to pay for the city stay and the rent. “
However, this kind of “communicating” several people understand how fragile, if there is any little accident, these two people will no doubt be driven out of the safe area.
“Lin Shu … Hello, we came here for something to ask you for help.” Bai Rong smiled, his voice soft, “Would you like to talk to us?”
“Are you looking for help from us?” Lin Shu looked at this delicate, beautiful and smiling young man like a spring breeze, and was very surprised. “Why … what busy ?!”
Although she subconsciously felt that this teenager would definitely not harm her, she couldn’t figure it out.
“We just want to register a mercenary regiment, but there are still two shortcomings. Are you willing to name Lin He with us? We can give you two gray coins every day.”
This was a decision discussed by several people on the road. Sixty gray coins a month should not be too small.
Two gray coins per day? ! ! !
Lin Shuhuo Ran ’s eyes widened, and she could n’t believe how such a good thing happened. Although she had heard that a mercenary regiment would name acquaintances, they were generally very good relatives of the head of the mercenary regiment, and It will not give much benefit, otherwise the other members of the group will definitely have opinions, and now this young boy actually said that they want to name them, and also give back the gray coins? ! ! !
“Well, would you like it?” Bai Rong smiled shallowly, “You don’t have to worry about us cheating you, because we want to find a partner who knows the roots and knows the bottom, and then Lu Kun recommended you, so we came here, if you don’t It ’s okay to agree. “
“I …” Lin Shu thought of his younger brother being squeezed so tightly that he couldn’t get a waist. His eyes were bitten with red teeth. “I promise!”
Anyway, they couldn’t persevere according to this situation for a long time. Even if this young man cheated them, they wouldn’t lose anything, not to mention … and Brother Lu Kun was here, they shouldn’t cheat them.
“That’s great.” Bai Rong exposed two little tiger teeth, and Lin Shu’s cheeks were warm with a smile. “Lin Shu, can you go to Lin He, can you go to the mercenary guild with us now?”
“It doesn’t seem to work now … my younger brother is still working.” Lin He had to return at ten o’clock every day, but now it was only four o’clock.
“Lin Shu, I suggest that Lin He still change his job, so his body can’t stand it at all.” Lu Kun suddenly said, “In a while I will go to La Ruo Hotel to ask Lin He for leave, otherwise he can never register with us, but … At that time, do you want to change jobs, and you are as you please. “
“… Okay.” Lin Shu lowered his head and nodded.
In fact, if it is not impossible, where would she let Xiaohe go to work in that black-hearted restaurant, but now … With such a large income, Xiaohe really does not need to go again.
Several people went to Laruo Restaurant in a majestic manner. In fact, they were a small porter in the dark. Under the pressure of Lu Kun Shijia, the boss of Na Lao Restaurant decisively released Linhe. Linhe saw Lukun and Luya. Hou Bi Linshu was even more excited, and his pale face had two more points of blood.
After finding Lin He, the seven immediately rushed to the Mercenary Guild, and finally completed the registration information one minute before the Secretary of the Mercenary Guild prepared to leave work.
The name of the mercenary regiment is the tough guy mercenary regiment. The leader of course is the toughest of the seven-Bai Rong!
In fact, Bai Rong wanted Mu Chongyan to be the head of the group, but Mu Chongyan said that the name of the group was from him, and he should be the one. He thought about it and felt that the toughest guy was indeed the best person to do this. The head of the tough guy is disrespectful.
The level of the mercenary regiment is the same as that of the regimental commander, and the rest of the regiments must be downgraded by one or two levels. For example, if the regimental commander in the second-level mercenary regiment is a second-level mercenary, the regiment can only be a first-level mercenary. Soldiers or intern mercenaries, try to avoid that some regiments will use some relatives to hang on to high-level mercenary places to enjoy benefits. After all, they will affect the rank ranking of other regiments 100%, just once or twice, more Words will definitely cause opposition.
First, he took out 14 gray coins and gave them to Lin Shulinhe and made an appointment once a week. Bai Rong let the two people with bad physique go back to rest first, and then walked out of the mercenary guild vigorously. There were two clusters of crackling flames.
As the head of the tough guy mercenary regiment, he felt the need to speak once, to encourage the enthusiasm of the regiments!
After returning to the bungalow and small courtyard, Bai Rong gave a passionate speech on “The sky is light and the clouds are cool, and the wind is cool”, which mobilized the enthusiasm of all the members of the group and gave Kuku and Luya a passion. The blood is boiling, one becomes a deeper brain powder, and one becomes a deeper brother control.
Mu Chongyan, with a smile on his face, looked at Bai Rong, who was wielding his fist, spoiled and helpless.
Among them, Lu Kun, who was paralyzed in the whole process, appeared out of place, and Bai Rong looked at him several times.
At the end of the speech, Luya went to the kitchen and simply made some supper. After several people finished eating, they lined up again and took a shower.
After taking a shower, Bai Rong scanned his height and found that it was 0.1 cm longer than yesterday, and now it has grown to 170.20 cm.
Do not understand how to grow more than ten times slower than in Shengya, Bai Rong sighed tiredly, took a towel and began to wipe his hair, but wiped it, he suddenly remembered a very serious matter.
Today, Mu Chongyan has not kissed him!
This will not work!
Will affect his height and speed! !
Bai Rong’s face suddenly became serious, he quickly threw the towel and rushed out of the bedroom door.
… On the other side, Mu Chongyan lay on the sofa with a sad face, staring at the ceiling.
The scene of Vitas teasing sweet cakes emerged in my mind today. Mu Chongyan’s teeth were clucking, his arms stretched out, and Lu Kun, who was not far away, felt cold and murderous suddenly stabbed and silently pulled the quilt to mouth.
After the anger, Mu Chongyan suddenly panicked. His sweet cake is getting more and more beautiful, and it will definitely attract more and more perverts … wrong, pursuer.
At that time, he couldn’t stop it anymore, especially one year later, his sweet cake became an adult, and he had no reason to stop it.
Little Sweet Cake and another person holding hands and laughing and smiling Yan Yandi’s picture of sweet leaving suddenly pierced into his mind, Mu Chongyan’s eyes were angry, dense pain like needles poured out from the bottom of his heart, followed by a pot of boiling acid The chest was filled, and the intense soreness stabbed him out of breath.
A very clear idea surged deep in my heart, Mu Chongyan clenched his fists, he did not allow Sweet Cake and another person to leave sweetly, never! !
But … what reason does he have? ! !
The author has something to say: Bairongrong (eyes bright): The reason is that you are my wife!
Mu Chongyan (tensile complexion): No, you are not an adult … (I can’t be such a beast …)
White velvet (dissatisfied with hips): Yeah, it’s easy to wear the interstellar to “early love”, you are not allowed me to catch the tail of an early love? ! !
