"Not long after we broke up, he got into a car accident and became a vegetable.
"In order to save him, I went to a nightclub and became a princess. For a year, I lost count of how many people offered me a high price, but I kept my bottom line.
"Not long ago, he suddenly woke up. I thought it was over with him, but who knew that he didn't even recognize me. The doctor said that his brain might have been severely damaged, affecting his intelligence. Only by removing the blood clot in his brain could he recover. If you want to treat it, the conservative estimate is at least six hundred thousand."
"Seeing him yelling and screaming like a fool, I admit I couldn't bring myself to do it. So I decided to help him one last time."
Jiang Xiaomei sat on a chair and slowly recounted her story with her ex.
Li Mo sat cross-legged on the bed, listening.
Ever since Jiang Xiaomei came in, Li Mo hadn't spoken a word. Jiang Xiaomei didn't mind. She didn't say it to get Li Mo's sympathy, but as someone she could confide in.
Her family didn't understand, her friends didn't understand, and her ex-boyfriend betrayed her every day. Jiang Xiaomei didn't even understand herself.
"I might be a fool, but I don't regret it. If I didn't save him, I would feel guilty for the rest of my life. Saving him gives me peace of mind."
Jiang Xiaomei looked at Li Mo, but he was still the same. His face was devoid of emotion.
"Boss Li, I'm not saying this to get your sympathy. I just feel vexed and want to talk to someone."
"Get out!"
Li Mo snapped.
Jiang Xiaomei was startled.
"Didn't you hear me talking to you?"
Jiang Xiaomei heard him and was embarrassed. Just as she was about to leave, Li Mo jumped off the bed and kicked the air.
Thump!
"Ouch!"
A cry of pain came from the air, as if something fell to the ground. Then everything went silent.
Li Mo sat cross-legged on the bed.
Jiang Xiaomei was confused, "Boss Li, what just happened?"
"An invisible man tried to approach you from behind, but I already chased him away."
"An invisible person?" Jiang Xiaomei was surprised.
Before today, Jiang Xiaomei would've never believed Li Mo's words. But now that she saw Zhao Zuo and Zhang Ding's' battle ', her eyes were opened wide. Li Mo's words were a little more believable.
"What does the invisible person look like?"
"Average looks, around 30 years old, not fat nor thin, medium build."
"Zhang Ding!" Jiang Xiaomei blurted.
"You know him?" It was Li Mo's turn to be startled.
"It must be him. When I saw him in the VIP lounge, he was fighting with a grandmaster called Zhao Zuo. He could control the talisman to fly in the air and stick it on Grandmaster Zhao's body. He could even be possessed."
"Soul possession technique?"
"Yes, that's the name!"
Jiang Xiaomei's mouth opened slightly. "Mr. Li, do you also know magic?
Yes, yes, the guests that Boss Hu invited today are all mutants with special abilities, and you are one of them. "
Jiang Xiaomei looked around and shuddered.
She was worried that Zhang Ding would return.
"Don't worry, he won't come back, at least not tonight."
"Y-you injured him?"
Li Mo shook his head, "Not really. He took a kick from me and ran through the wall."
"Through the wall!" Jiang Xiaomei shrieked.
"Once the Invisibility Technique is cultivated to the point of perfection, one would be able to use the Wall Piercing Technique. However, activating the Wall Piercing Technique consumes a lot of magic power. With that person's cultivation, I'm afraid his magic power would have been depleted after he passed through the wall twice."
"Also, while the Invisibility Art is active, you can't use your spiritual power. Six hours after the art ends, you can use it again."
Jiang Xiaomei trembled, "Mr. Li, y-you won't kick me out, will you?"
She sounded like she was begging him.
"Of course not. You can sleep on the bed and I will meditate on the floor."
Li Mo jumped off the bed.
"Ah?
I'll sleep on the bed?
Y-you won't be with me … "Jiang Xiaomei blushed.
Li Mo sat cross-legged on the floor, not reacting to her words.
An hour passed and Jiang Xiaomei peeked at Li Mo, only to find he was still sitting cross-legged.
"Mr. Li, me and my boyfriend only did it once. It wasn't too successful … and I took a bath before coming."
Li Mo didn't think much of it, but Jiang Xiaomei did.
Li Mo's lips twitched.
"I checked outside and found you didn't do anything to me while I was unconscious."
"A million for two days. Y-you didn't give it to me, but I feel bad for you."
Li Mo's lips twitched again.
"Y-you've never done it before?"
"How about I teach you?" Jiang Xiaomei's courage grew.
"I'm underage." Li Mo couldn't hold it in any longer.
Jiang Xiaomei froze for five seconds before bursting into laughter.
"By the way, how old are you?"
"I'll be 16 in a few months if I count this life."
"You're 15?
Hahaha … "
Jiang Xiaomei covered her mouth.
"I'll owe you."
Li Mo snorted.
"Alright, I'll owe you until you're 18?
Hahaha … "
Jiang Xiaomei laughed until tears came out.
In Zhang Ding's room.
On Zhang Ding's bed was the beauty that accompanied him. She was already fast asleep. Zhang Ding was not wearing a single piece of clothing. He stood naked in front of the mirror and gritted his teeth.
The left side of his face was swollen from Li Mo's kick. Thankfully, he had spiritual power to protect his body, or that kick would've left him gravely injured.
"I didn't expect that bastard to have a natural demonic eye. I'm so pissed!" Zhang Ding cursed.
Zhang Ding used Invisibility to take down Jiang Xiaomei. He didn't think much of Li Mo, nor did he expect Li Mo to see through him.
"I've never suffered such a loss since I left the mountain. Motherf * cker!"
Zhang Ding grew angrier the more he thought about it, cursing and covering his face.
"Demonic eye punk, just you wait. I won't be Zhang if I don't get my revenge!"
Zhang Ding slammed his fist on the dresser.
Zhang Ding took out the yellow seal from his clothes and walked to the sleeping beauty. He placed the seal on her head.
"Get up and dance!"
Zhang Ding kicked the beauty. She stood up like a zombie and danced the same dance as Zhao Zuo when he was possessed by a ghost.
"Embrace me, the beautiful world, the bright flowers, the clear spring, the vast land, the green mountains, and the handsome youth …"
She started singing. Her voice was much better than Zhao Zuo's. As Zhang Ding listened, he became infatuated, intoxicated by the song.
"Ye Xiaolu, I couldn't have you when you were alive. Aren't you at my mercy now that you're dead?"
Zhang Ding kicked the girl, causing her to tumble. The yellow seal on her head fell to the ground. She shuddered and came to her senses.
"It hurts. Boss Zhang, what are you doing?"
"It's fine. Just sleep."
