The woman shivered and finally noticed Xia Panqiu, who looked like Chen Lusi's sister and seed to have a gaze that could kill. Realizing sothing, she smiled at Chen Lusi, then turned and left.
Only then did Xia Panqiu withdraw her gaze.
She was very skilled at it by now.
Because the five previous people who approached the cat all had the sa excuse.
Chen Lusi thought it was because the cat was too eye-catching.
But Xia Panqiu didn't think so.
She felt the cat was part of it, but Chen Lusi was another reason.
Honestly, he really fits the mainstream aesthetic; from any angle, he qualifies as handso.
His slightly rugged face had defined lines, his black hair was tied into a ponytail, his body was tall and slender, and he held a white cat in his arms.
Standing at the bustling hospital entrance, he was truly eye-catching.
"... Are you really standing by my side because you're not afraid?"
Chen Lusi watched the cat-petting woman leave, then suddenly turned to Xia Panqiu and asked.
"..."
Xia Panqiu was stunned by his words, then looked at Chen Lusi in surprise.
This didn't seem like sothing he would say.
At tis like this, wouldn't he usually remain silent?
Chen Lusi and Xia Panqiu stared at each other, waiting for her answer.
"I..."
Xia Panqiu was the first to waver. She averted her gaze, her eyes flickering, feeling a bit embarrassed.
"Hahaha."
In the distance, Wu You saw this scene and couldn't help but laugh: "All under the guise of the cat, no difference..."
Xia Panqiu imdiately glared at Wu You, her unusual expression quickly retracting, clenching her little fists as if she also wished to knife him.
Wu You's laughter stopped abruptly as he took a few steps back.
"..."
Chen Lusi looked at Xia Panqiu, who had her back to him, and Wu You retreating in the distance. After a mont of silence, he suddenly smiled.
... It's really good to be out.
At the sa ti.
One kiloter away.
On a certain rooftop.
Mount Tai's eyes were dyed a deep blue by the spirit as he gazed at Chen Lusi at the hospital entrance and suddenly asked, "Do we keep watching?"
"Yes."
Luo Mountain nodded, then hesitated for a mont: "You should know why."
Mount Tai thought for a while and replied, "... Because of the phrase 'half of Jinling belongs to Jing'?"
"Right."
Luo Mountain turned back, looking at Mount Tai with a frown: "Chen Lusi might not think there's anything wrong, but the fact is, why does he know that half of Jinling belongs to Jing?"
Mount Tai was silent for a mont: "Because Jing belongs to him..."
"Exactly."
Luo Mountain's expression was sowhat strange: "The only possibility is... Jing belongs to him, and half of Jinling also belongs to him!"
Mount Tai: "..."
...
"That's the general situation."
Li Zheng stood straight, maintaining his excellent posture even through the phone.
After hearing his report.
The person on the other end of the phone was silent for a half-minute before asking, "Is that 'Jing' now in Chen Lusi's arms?"
"Yes."
"So you only used less than twenty Celestial Punishnt Weapons... to let a suspected high-level Self existence fall?"
"Whether the other party is dead is uncertain, but the effect is indeed excellent."
"Was Chen Lusi injured?"
The other party's tone slowly beca urgent.
Li Zheng was a bit puzzled but still replied, "No."
"Was the Celestial Strategy Mansion's top level shocked?"
"Yes."
"Are you Security Army cooperating with the Celestial Strategy Mansion?"
"Yes."
"Imdiately pull out half the people, let them go to Chen Lusi's side."
"... Why?"
"Protection."
"Pro...tection? I think..."
"Just do it first!"
"Understood!"
"Thank you for your hard work."
"..."
The phone call ended.
Li Zheng put down his phone, frowning slightly, feeling a bit doubtful.
He didn't quite understand the high-level's order.
Protection?
Now that the Celestial Strategy Mansion's high-level are all...
Wait a minute.
Li Zheng suddenly thought of sothing, and his face changed.
Could it be that the high-level are worried about... the Celestial Strategy Mansion?
But why?
...
During this period, Chen Lusi had been through a lot... Unknowingly, his personality had changed quite a bit.
But far away in Peng City, Si Yujie remained the sa as always.
He still quietly stood at Celestial Strategy Trading's front desk, acting as a decoration.
Only today, she wasn't slacking off.
Because she had also heard about the events in Jinling.
If you say she wasn't worried about Chen Lusi... that wouldn't be true, but she couldn't really do much.
She couldn't just take her family to Jinling.
Moreover, even if she went to Jinling... it wouldn't necessarily change anything.
She's okay at fighting.
But she's really bad at finding people.
Let alone her daughter.
She could only stay where she was, waiting for news.
In the end... she didn't wait for news from Jinling; instead, she t an unexpected person.
Very abruptly.
The air suddenly twisted, and black mist began to spill out as if so "passage" was opening.
Seeing this scene, Si Yujie was shocked and imdiately raised her hand.
But before she could activate any techniques.
"... So aggressive."
A familiar voice sounded.
Then, the space was suddenly torn like paper, and a figure was squeezed out from the void by the black mist.
Upon seeing who it was, Si Yujie was stunned for a mont, then uncertainly said, "Xia Yue?"
Xia Yue looked back at the slowly closing 'passage,' then shook his head and smiled at the stunned Si Yujie not far away: "Xiaoxiao, long ti no see... Has anything big happened while I was away?"
"..."
Si Yujie slowly lowered her hand, then sighed: "Too many things."
