Comrade Wu drove his own car back to Fengtian, and Li Xianyu returned to the county town in the Ph.D. snake lady’s police car. In a few hours, Great-Grandma’s flight would arrive at Taoxian International Airport in Fengtian. Li Xianyu was worried about the safety of Ice Shards and was afraid to leave her side, even half a step away. Thus, he asked Minister Wu to send someone to receive her.
“I missed work today. My bonus for this month’s full-attendance must be gone. I’ll have to write a report to the leader tomorrow to explain to him,” Liu Yao murmured.
“I’m sorry,” Li Xianyu apologized. He originally thought it was a negotiation. Who knew it was a trap? It even almost put her in danger.
They were speechless throughout the journey. Li Xianyu thought about what happened tonight. Someone killed Liu Tong and framed him, but it seemed that it was not a case of careless set-up and framing. What was their intention? Screw him over while killing Liu Tong?
Let him and the Liu family fight and he would gain from the background?
Or did this unknown person want to let him back off in the face of difficulties and leave the northeast? For whatever purpose, Li Xianyu vaguely felt that he was not the key of the event.
What was originally just a fight within the Demons Alliance, had now involved the Wu family. Adding an S-grade and a bear spirit with an unknown motive, he had a hunch that the demon descendants community in the Northeast is likely to usher in a storm of blood.
He scratched his head irritably. I was just here to visit my sick dad. Why was I inexplicably involved in such a complicated situation?
When they were almost reaching the hotel, Liu Yao suddenly said, “Since I’m absent from work anyway, it doesn’t matter whether or not I return to the police station.”
Li Xianyu only regarded her as saying a pointless comment and said, “Mhmm” casually.
The police car drove to the door of the hotel. Li Xianyu opened the door and said, “Thank you. You should go back earlier.”
“Hey!” Liu Yao called after him, and she looked shy. “Must I say it directly?”
“Huh?” Li Xianyu was confused and froze.
“Unlike human women, we foreign species don’t attach too much importance to that. I like your scent, and if you’re also interested in me…” Liu Yao licked her red lips. This time, it was not the tip of the forked tongue, but her soft little fragrant tongue. She pointed to the hotel. “We can talk for a night.”
I didn’t think you were such a casual snake. Li Xianyu shook his head. “No, it’s okay.”
Although I am handsome, but why do I feel that every member of the foreign species I get along with wants to have something to do with me?
Liu Yao seemed to have seen through Li Xianyu’s doubts, thus she smiled and said, “You have a special scent on your body. It attracts me very much. I can smell it since you got in the car.”
“Nonsense. I take a bath every day,” Li Xianyu said angrily.
“That’s not what I mean. Ah, forget it.” Liu Yao could see that he did not want to have anything with herself, as she sighed disappointedly, “Keep my business card. While you are in the northeast during this period, you can contact me anytime.” She waved her hand, stepped on the accelerator, and the police car drove off.
Li Xianyu stood by the side of the road, took off his gloves, frowned and said, “Is this what you did?”
Slime was indignant. “You have feelings yourself. Now you are blaming me?”
Li Xianyu’s face fell. “Not this, Liu Yao said I have a strange scent that attracts females.”
Slime did not answer him. Slime was silent for a moment, then replied, “Do you really not know, or are you pretending not to know?”
“What?”
“Your blood, essence, and flesh have a strong appeal to foreign species.”
Li Xianyu stood by the side of the road for a long time. “The reason for self-healing ability?”
Slime replied, “I don’t know. After staying in your body for a long time, I found that your body is different from that of Wangchen. Your genes are more perfect than him, and that part of the ancient demon genes is more complex. I have only been parasitic on both of you, and I can’t tell if your situation is common. But I can judge that you’re a natural cultivating pot. Full of energy and condensed essence. There’s no better sexual cultivating pot than you. You’d better pray that it’s a gift, or else… Hehehe!” Slime cackled eerily.
“What do you mean?” Li Xianyu was startled and creeped out.
“You know what I mean,” Slime said.
Back to his room, Li Xianyu took a shower and the desire that Liu Yao triggered had disappeared.
Li Xianyu put on his bathrobe and knocked on his sister’s door. She seemed to have slept, and opened the door after he knocked for a while.
Ice Shards was in a sleeping gown and looked at him with a disdainful face. “What’s up?”
Knowing that his sister was alright, when he saw her standing in front of him, Li Xianyu heaved a sigh of relief.
“Let’s go to Fengtian tomorrow. I have some friends coming over.”
“I don’t like being around people.” Ice Shards killed the conversation.
“No, you must be with my friend. Otherwise, go back to Shanghai, or change places to travel.” Li Xianyu had a tough attitude.
“Say that again.” Ice Shards looked at him nonchalantly.
Li Xianyu relented in an instant. He bowed his head and pleaded, “Sis, give me some face, please.”
Ice Shards nodded in satisfaction. “You should have been so sensible to start with.”
Bang! The door closed.
At five o’clock the next morning, Li Xianyu, carrying Ice Shards’s suitcase, took a taxi by the side of the road and went to Fengtian. Li Xianyu turned on his mobile phone and added his colleagues from Fengtian Headquarters into the chat group.
Walking Pile Driver: Is everyone awake? I’m coming over.
It was quiet in the group as everyone did not seem to wake up. At 06:30 A.M., Thunderbolt Battle Lady was the first to reply to him.
Thunderbolt Battle Lady: Did you come with your sister?
Walking Pile Driver: We are on the way, almost there. It looks like you know what happened last night. Battle Lady, I’ll place my sister in your care.
Thunderbolt Battle Lady sent an “OK” gesture.
Lady Killer replied: Can’t you just ask your sister to go back to Shanghai? Battle Lady is a very important combat force. She is wasted traveling with your sister.
Walking Pile Driver: I can’t order her around, /sobs.
Ever since I was a child, she has made arrangements for me clearly. If I’m able to order her around, I’ll… I’ll force her to wear a pleated skirt every day.
Lady Killer sent a [sunglasses] emoji: Leave it to me, I’ll take care of it.
King Kong also replied: Yes, Lady Killer’s power is targeted towards all chaste and strong girls. He can seduce your sister and hoodwink her, and then let her go back to Shanghai obediently.
Li Xianyu perked up. Oh right, why didn’t I think of this? My sister is just an ordinary person. I can’t control her, but other people can, such as the Lady Killer’s Hou Intelligence Subtraction Technique, and the passive skill that automatically acquires women’s liking.
Walking Pile Driver: That works, but you cannot take advantage of my sister, or I will ask my gran to hit you.
Lady Killer: …Brother, do you think I’m short of women? I have high expectations. The most stressful thing I face every day is to remember which women I met last night and who I haven’t met for a long time. After all, loving all women equally is the duty of a responsible man.
King Kong: I’m leaving the chat.
When they arrived at Fengtian Division, it was seven o’clock in the morning. Li Xianyu went straight to the top-floor rotating restaurant with Ice Shards. Baoze’s headquarters and major branch buildings had the same structure.
“One of my friends is an executive at Baoze Branch. I just texted him. Since we haven’t eaten, let’s go to their company to eat. The food is very good.” Li Xianyu casually told his sister to wait in the hall for a while and he went to get the employee ID. In fact, he just went to the bathroom, but he couldn’t just take his employee ID out of his wallet. He would scare Ice Shards.
When he came back from going to the bathroom, Ice Shards stood silently in the crowd. It was like a beautiful scenery.
“I just asked, the restaurant is on the top floor. With this employee ID, we can go in and eat and drink. It is said that the standard of food is the standard of a five-star hotel buffet. Sister, the two of us saved thousands of dollars.” Li Xianyu pretended to be very happy.
Ice Shards glanced at him, did not speak, but her expression expressed, “I will quietly watch you perform.”
At the top-floor revolving restaurant.
Senior employees from Baoze gathered at a table and looked at the message of the Demons Alliance. Originally, the task they received was to accompany Li Xianyu to deter the Demons Alliance, which may start a small killing, but in the Demons Alliance’s industry in Northeast China today, those foreign species families dare not really burn bridges.
Whether it be a man or a demon, once he had money and an estate, it would be easy for the ferocious beings to compromise.
But according to the information obtained yesterday, there was a clear problem within the Demons Alliance, and even the Wu family may be involved. According to regulations, Baoze would not be involved in the disputes in the demon descendants community, unless the matter was so big that it might affect the stability of society.
So the task of their team became to investigate the death of Liu Tong and, if necessary, to use the armed forces of Fengtian Division to suppress chaos.
Lady Killer chewed on the fried egg. “I told you that Li Xianyu is a trouble magnet. He’s in the northeast, and the northeast is going to be in a mess.”
King Kong agreed, “He even implicated his family.”
Kato Eagle disagreed with them. “It’s just a coincidence, we are wronging him by pinning the blame on him.”
Thunderbolt Battle Lady looked at her mobile phone and said, “He’s coming soon. Don’t talk about matters of the demon descendants community. Li Xianyu’s sister is just an ordinary person.”
Great-Grandma was eating happily and looked at the door from time to time. She was thinking that when her great-grandson came, she would not have to run around to get her food, as her great-grandson would be serving her.
As she was just thinking about it, her great-grandson appeared at the door. Great-Grandma glanced at her great-grandson for 0.01 second, and was attracted by the woman next to him.
“H-His sister?” Lady Killer said dazedly.
“I have to admit, she’s a pile of attractive shit.” It was rare for King Kong to give a positive evaluation of a woman.
Thunderbolt Battle Lady opened her eyes wide.
“Oh wow, she looks good.” Kato Eagle had a wife, but it didn’t prevent him from being fascinated by wild flowers outside.
Li Xianyu came over, leaned the suitcase against the table and introduced, “They… They’re all my friends. She’s my sister.”
He suddenly thought of a very embarrassing issue. He didn’t know the names of these guys, and introducing them by their nicknames was very humiliating. By the same token, he couldn’t introduce his sister as “Ice Shards.”
Great-Grandma and Thunderbolt Battle Lady had his WeChat account.
Lady Killer dragged Li Xianyu aside and whispered, “Do you have a brother-in-law? Would you mind having one if you don’t have one? If so, would you mind one more?”
“Scram!” Li Xianyu replied.
“Your sister is so beautiful,” Lady Killer exclaimed.
“She looks like me.”
“Huh?”
“Nothing. I’ll leave my sister to you. If you can get her out of the northeast, I’ll pay you three points.”
“Leave it to me.” Lady Killer was confident and walked over, stretching his arm, indicating that he wanted to shake hands. “Hello, my surname is Hou. Can I be friends with you?” He was very handsome, and has a pair of electric eyes. Few women could resist his gaze. As the number one playboy at Baoze headquarters, Lady Killer did not only rely on his abilities to pick up girls, he also depended on his face.
He smiled warmly and politely, and even Thunderbolt Battle Lady, who was also a senior employee, felt that there was no reason to refuse.
Ice Shards looked at him for a long time and replied, “Oh.” She didn’t have any intention to shake hands.
Lady Killer was slightly stunned, and his smile became gentler, “Can we shake hands?”
“No.”
Lady Killer was at a loss and asked, “Can I add you on WeChat?”
“No.”
Lady Killer looked at his colleagues in confusion, as if he wanted to get some explanation from his colleagues, but found that everyone looked equally bewildered. He grit his teeth and used Intelligence Subtraction technique on the cold beauty, “Can you leave the northeast?”
Ice Shard’s tone didn’t change. “No.”
Everyone was shocked.
