Since Li Meiyu was sitting across from me, she noticed me first. Zhong Yuchen also turned to look at me.
"Brother Zhuang, what a coincidence. I didn't expect to bump into you while having a meal," said Zhong Yuchen with a smile.
"Yeah, I didn't interrupt you guys, did I?"
I winked at him while secretly observing Li Meiyu's expression. She didn't seem to be flustered. So, the Witch Ye Ji didn't know that her identity had been exposed, right?
If that was the case, I would have a better chance of catching her. It wasn't strange. Logically speaking, both the Blood Demon and the Witch Ye Ji belonged to the demonic path from thousands of years ago. In their memories, they had rich historical knowledge. On the contrary, they didn't know much about modern culture.
Previously, the Blood Demon had been hiding in my Dantian, recuperating and accumulating his power. Occasionally, he would talk to me about modern culture and the current situation of martial arts. However, he was cold and aloof. After my brief introduction, he didn't ask me any questions but tried to understand everything by himself.
Now, I regretted it. I realized that I had unknowingly made a big mistake. The Blood Demon was like a demon from ancient times. When he found out that modern weapons couldn't destroy him easily, he wanted to reappear in the martial world.
Sigh, I didn't think too much at that time. After all, the Blood Demon had saved my life several times. There was no need to hide such common sense.
However, it seemed that the Witch Ye Ji didn't know that there was a camera. I also noticed a detail from her. She often lowered her head to play with her phone or quietly looked around. She didn't talk much. It was obvious that she was trying to adapt to the new environment.
The more you talk, the more mistakes you make. It was like a time travel drama. The main character had come to a new era, so it was wise to watch and learn more.
I could only blame myself for being careless and not taking precautions. Fortunately, I only lost a small part of my blood essence and Yang energy. It wasn't a fatal mistake.
"Haha, Brother Zhuang, you must be joking. We just wanted to have a simple meal. Miss Li said that the food in this restaurant was good. Since we didn't have anything to do today, we decided to come and have a try. Why don't we eat together? We ordered a lot of food anyway." Zhong Yuchen waved his hand and invited me.
Looking at his cheerful face, I felt a little strange. I wondered if he had fallen for Witch Ye Ji's seduction technique.
If my guess wasn't wrong, the Witch Li Meiyu had approached Zhong Yuchen because she wanted to absorb his blood essence. But then again, I couldn't figure out when Li Meiyu had been possessed. According to what Guan Ruolan had said, Li Meiyu might have already died. But if that was the case, her body would lose its vitality. Even if she used the methods of the demonic path, it would be difficult for her to reach the optimal state.
In other words, it should be another situation. Li Meiyu's three souls and seven mortal forms were controlled, just like what happened to me last time.
In other words, Witch Ye Ji had taken over her body, making it impossible for her to regain control over it. The demonic path's style of doing things could be described as vicious and merciless.
From what I could tell, Li Meiyu must have been kidnapped by an assassin after the fan meet-and-greet. While she was unconscious, the witch Ye Ji seized the chance to take over her body. Since then, Li Meiyu had become strange.
"Okay, I'll do as you say."
I casually sat down and didn't show any fear. Since we were both from the Demon Path, the Witch Ye Ji might be in contact with the Blood Demon. Currently, the Blood Demon should still be in the Southern Cloud. With one in the north and one in the south, it wouldn't be difficult for us to create a diversion.
Soon, Li Meiyu came to talk to me. "Brother Zhuang Feng, I have a few girlfriends who want to buy the supreme black mud mask. It's the one that costs one million renminbi per bottle. But they're selling it online. If they want to buy it now, they'll have to wait for at least ten days to half a month. They can't wait to use it now. Do you think you can get it through the back door? Money isn't a problem."
This witch didn't mention anything about what happened last night. What was she trying to do?
Anyway, I remembered it clearly. Because she came out of the bathroom crying, Hsieh Shih-chi made a big fuss. She thought I was a beast in human clothing. If I hadn't cured Hsieh Shih-chi's myopia, I'm afraid we would still be in a stiff relationship.
Thinking about it made me depressed, but I also felt strange. Why did Witch Ye Ji want to frame me?
Did she want me to think that Li Meiyu was a scheming girl?
It didn't seem necessary. She was occupying Li Meiyu's body, so she should show her obedient and sensible side. That way, she would have a better chance to extract the blood.
I had to say that what happened last night was a wake-up call for me. It wasn't an exaggeration to say that the pure Yang blood in my body was a delicacy in the eyes of the demonic cultivators. It had an indescribable nourishing effect, especially for a witch who had been silent for hundreds of years.
"I'm afraid that won't work. Everything has to be done according to the rules. As the saying goes, nothing can be accomplished without rules. Although I'm the creator of the Black Mud Facial Mask, if a company wants to operate normally, everyone has to follow the rules, right?
I can't abuse my power just because I'm your friend. "I didn't hesitate and directly rejected her request.
Damn it, I didn't know if it was true, or if Witch Ye Ji wanted to use it herself.
"Okay, Big Brother Zhuang Feng is right. In order to maintain the momentum of the company, we should have strict management." Li Meiyu stuck out her tongue, revealing her mischievous side.
I looked absent-minded, but I didn't care. After knowing the truth, I kept reminding myself not to fall for her bewitching technique again. Of course, I didn't need to be afraid. If Witch Ye Ji's bewitching technique was really that powerful, she wouldn't need to use all kinds of tricks to win my affection. If that was the case, she needed to fulfill some external conditions.
