Huali and Lan Jue walked out of the warehouse together, still holding the green gem that Lan Jue gave him. "If someone knew that you used the Rejuvenation Stone like this, they would definitely call you a wastrel.
This is the most valuable of the B-grade gems, and every time you use it, its energy will be consumed, and it can't be automatically restored. "
Lan Jue smiled and said, "I'm rich, and I'm willful, okay?
If I can really help Tang Xiao stimulate the natural evolution effect, this consumption is nothing.
I'll leave this place to you for a few days.
The day after tomorrow morning, I'm going to travel. "
Huali said angrily, "You want me to stay and do hard labor for you.
If I knew this would happen, I wouldn't have been so softhearted to find you! "
Lan Jue put his arm around his shoulder and said with a smile, "Okay, don't complain.
I'll be back in a few days, and Ah-Cheng should be here soon. It's not easy for us brothers to get together.
When Ah-Cheng comes, we should also practice together a few times. We can't lose face in the public battle. "
Huali said, "When you come back, I still have to hold a concert. Tell me, what if I hold the concert in your National Eastern University?
Anyway, the students in your school are all my fans. "
"Are you crazy?" Lan Jue said in surprise, "Aren't you afraid that the school will explode?
I can't believe you came up with this idea. "
Huali laughed and said, "If I hold the concert in your school, no woman in your school will like you anymore.
If your sister Hera also likes me, you won't have a chance. "
"Pfft!
Do you really think that all the women in the world will like you? "Lan Jue said angrily.
Huali said proudly, "Unless they are lesbians, as long as there is no problem with their aesthetics, there will naturally be no exception."
Lan Jue patted his forehead.
"You arrogant guy.
Whatever you want.
However, you have to control the public security. "
"Don't worry.
We at Hanhai Entertainment have done this kind of activity countless times. We are definitely the most experienced among the three Major League clubs. Naturally, we know how to cooperate with the local government. "
Lan Jue's heart skipped a beat. "From what you're saying, is Mo Xiao already here?"
Huali said with a bitter face, "Isn't that so?
I just received a message from her yesterday. Although I didn't reply, I can't hide from her.
You know how she is.
If I deliberately hid from her, I would have died a horrible death. "
Lan Jue put on a look of self-reliance and said, "That's your problem. You settle it yourself."
"Aren't you going to help me?" Huali said indignantly.
"How?
Do you want me to stand up for you and tell everyone that I'm Zeus?
Neptune's buddy?
Don't forget, I just kidnapped a bride from the Eastern Alliance.
I'm probably a fugitive now. If I show my face, I'll be ganged up on. "
Huali curled her lips. "You really can't be relied on at critical moments!
Alright, you go back first.
I'm going to find Mo Xiao, or else she'll go crazy.
I can't take it anymore. "
The two parted at the entrance of Zeus Jewelry Shop. Lan Jue returned to the ground and drove the verti-car back to the academy.
Then, she turned on the verti-car's autopilot and drove it back to the garage. She pushed her bicycle and waited at the familiar corner.
Zhou Qianlin had finished school at the exact time. She didn't use the Soulcaller gem to contact Lan Jue. Instead, she went to the corner. When she saw Lan Jue, her eyes softened and she sat down on the back seat.
Lan Jue didn't say anything either. Tacitly, he hopped on his bicycle and quietly led her away.
"Are you going to the nursing home today?" Lan Jue asked.
"Tomorrow," Zhou Qianlin said softly.
"Oh," Lan Jue answered.
The two didn't say anything on the way until Lan Jue sent Zhou Qianlin to the foot of Tianshan Mountain.
"Goodbye." Lan Jue waved at Zhou Qianlin.
Zhou Qianlin smiled at him and waved back. Then, she turned around and went up the mountain.
Lan Jue watched her until she was out of sight. Then, she got on her car and left.
"Cousin, I think we should talk." At this moment, a cold voice sounded from behind.
Lan Jue was stunned. When she turned around, she saw Li Cha walking out from the shadows.
"It's you." Lan Jue pushed the bicycle to Li Cha. "What do you want to talk about?"
Li Cha said calmly, "Let's find a place."
As he said that, he pulled out his repaired bicycle from the shadows. He got on the bicycle and rode away.
Lan Jue had always felt guilty about Li Cha.
After all, if he hadn't snatched Zhou Qianlin away, she would've been married.
Moreover, he didn't have any bad feelings for Li Cha from the few times he had met him.
Li Cha seemed to be familiar with the surrounding roads. He rode with Lan Jue for more than ten minutes. Finally, they stopped at a deserted road.
After parking the bicycle, he walked to the forest.
Lan Jue squinted her eyes, but she still followed him.
After walking for a few minutes, they went deep into the forest. Li Cha stopped. With his back to Lan Jue, he said lightly, "It was a coincidence that I met Qian Lin.
It was Qian Lin's birthday last year. Father happened to be in the Eastern Alliance for a state visit.
I was the future heir of the Austin Family and also a member of his entourage.
It just so happened that the Chief of the Eastern Alliance, Zhou Xue, was celebrating his birthday. I met Qian Lin for the first time at his birthday party. "
"But at that time, I was deeply captivated by her.
She had the pure beauty of a typical Eastern girl. Exquisite and flawless. If she didn't speak and just stood there, I would've thought she was the most perfect sculpture in the world.
From that moment on, I knew that I couldn't help but fall in love with her. "
"So, I tried my best to approach her and strike up a conversation with her.
She suddenly asked me, 'Are you a playboy?'
Of course, I said no.
But what I didn't expect was that she immediately walked away.
So, I quickly chased after her and asked her what happened.
She just shook her head and said that she wanted to find a playboy and a bad guy to get to know. "
"I hurriedly said that I was actually a foppish playboy and a bad person. I even quickly mentioned a few stupid things and bad things I had done in the past. I even said that I had peeped in the women's toilet when I was young.
Then, she really did talk to me. She even asked me if I wanted to hold a wedding with her.
Did you know?
At that moment, great happiness rushed to my heart.
I felt that I was the happiest man in the world, so of course, I agreed without hesitation.
I immediately told my father, and he was very surprised. At that time, he thought that it was a trap set by the Chief of the Eastern Alliance. "
"Later, after several twists and turns, I finally convinced my father. After my father investigated it, he finally confirmed that it wasn't a trap set by the Eastern Alliance. He even began to use the wedding to deepen the relationship between the two alliances.
But none of that was important to me. What was important was that I could make Qian Lin my bride. "
"But that day was a nightmare for me. A guy suddenly appeared and snatched Qian Lin away.
The wedding was stopped, and my father took me away in anger.
For a long time after that, I didn't know how I managed to get through it.
When I found out that Qian Lin was safe, I risked everything to return here, to return to her side, and tried to make her be with me. "
At this point, Li Cha's eyes were filled with fanaticism. At that moment, he was like a paranoid madman.
"But now, there's you here.
Cousin?
I've investigated, and Qian Lin doesn't have a cousin.
Calling her cousin is just an excuse.
Why is she willing to sit on the back of your bicycle?
Now, can you tell me? "
The fanaticism gradually turned into coldness, so coldness that it chilled one's heart.
Lan Jue frowned slightly, but his eyes showed that he was deep in thought. He was originally full of guilt towards Li Cha, but after listening to what Li Cha had just said, he had many doubts in his heart.
From Li Cha's description, he could tell that Li Cha and Zhou Qianlin hadn't known each other for a long time, but they had set up the wedding the first time they met. Moreover, why did Zhou Qianlin have to find a playboy and a bad guy as her marriage partner?
This was really too strange.
"I'm her bodyguard." Lan Jue decided to tell the truth.
"Bodyguard?" This time, it was Li Cha's turn to be stunned.
After he had investigated and found out that Zhou Qianlin didn't have a cousin, he had thought of many possibilities. Among them, the most accepted guess was that Zhou Qianlin and Lan Jue were boyfriend and girlfriend, but absolutely not the slightest bit related to being a bodyguard.
Lan Jue's answer really left him speechless.
As the heir of the Austin family, his sixth sense was still very sharp. After confirming that Lan Jue and Zhou Qianlin weren't related by blood, he felt an inexplicable sense of crisis. Lan Jue seemed to have a special quality about her. Her appearance and temperament were no less than his.
"You're Qian Lin's bodyguard?
Uncle Zhou hired you for Qian Lin? "Li Cha quickly asked.
Lan Jue smiled indifferently. "More than that, it's a secret between us.
Did you call me here today to show off your existence?
Or are you going to tell me about your relationship with her? "
Li Cha said in a low voice, "Although the wedding isn't over yet, Qian Lin is already my fiancée.
So, I don't want you to have any contact with her as a heterosexual, especially not to pick her up.
I hope you'll agree.
If you're just a bodyguard, it'll be much easier. Here's a cheque. You can fill in any number.
You can withdraw it from any bank. "
As he spoke, he took out a blank cheque and tossed it to Lan Jue.
The cheque was made of silver-white metal and had at least ten anti-counterfeiting features. It was the highest grade of electronic cheques.
