“Heh, your head! Is this person sick? Being scolded so miserably by me, yet not talking back—did they take the wrong medicine? But who is this person?”
Chen: When have I not been innocently scolded by you? It’s not that they don’t want to talk back; you don’t give them any breathing space!
Lan Ling’er laughs: That’s because you’re all stupid! A bunch of dead stupid pigs!
Lan Ling’er walked confidently in front of him. Hmph! I’m a hero, who am I afraid of!
“Seems like you’re quite special!” He smiled faintly, his friendly smile visible despite half his face being covered.
“What are you laughing at? Go home and have your mother take you to a doctor!” She initially expected a retort but was taken aback by his words. Special? It made her want to throw up! Did she meet a mentally challenged person?
“Dare to make a bet with me?” Another faint smile gave Lan Ling’er goosebumps.
“Dare! Who have I ever been afraid of?” Although slightly uncertain, her self-esteem prevailed, and she accepted the challenge.
“Good! I’ll give you two months. If I don’t catch you, I’ll grant you one condition!” He said coldly.
“Okay!” She accepted the challenge.
“What if you lose?” His confident gaze swept over her.
“Okay!” She decided to play along since she was bored.
“To ensure both parties follow the bet, I’ll take your maid Xi’er. For fairness, I’ll give you my jade pendant!”
He removed the pendant from his waist and placed it in Lan Ling’er’s hand.
“But, I…” I haven’t even agreed yet! As the black-clothed figure flew above the house, Lan Ling’er picked up a stone and threw it.
“Remember! My name is Chu—Ge!” His voice echoed through the mansion, gradually fading away.
“Sister, can you not leave?” Dada pulled at Lan Ling’er’s sleeve with a pained expression.
Of course! Sister Ling can stay, but then you won’t see Sister Xi again. If that’s how you want it, Sister Ling won’t leave! If it weren’t for Xi being in his hands, she wouldn’t have time for that inhumane guy.
