Chapter 53: Why Don’t You Try Hitting on Him?

She quickly opened the Chat Group and @ Xia Meng Meng. “?Fur Bristling?Is your master a devil or what?”

Xia Meng Meng replied almost immediately. “?Confused?What happened? How did Master upset you?”

“He’s really devious!!!” Su Qian typed furiously. “I almost got scared to death.”

As soon as she said that, she dragged the rest of the group out too.

Shen Meng Qi widened her eyes. “Devious? Did he peek at you showering?”

Lin Yue corrected her helplessly. “That’s a pervert, not devious.”

Xia Meng Meng said carefully, “My master… shouldn’t be that kind of person, right?”

Su Qian looked at their replies and got a full face of black lines. “No, what are you all thinking?”

She quickly explained the whole thing from start to finish.

At the end, she added, “He keeps clinging to kept pretty-boy. I was so embarrassed I almost died.”

Shen Meng Qi (Beast World Darling): “Hahaha, that’s it? Then yeah, he’s kind of devious.”

Jiang Xiao Yu (Apocalypse Survival): “?Watching the show?Why do I feel like he’s teasing you?”

“Ah~~~”

The peanut gallery’s teasing comments poured in nonstop.

Lin Yue (Ancient Household Intrigue): “Looks like there’s a story here.”

Xia Meng Meng (Cultivation Cannon Fodder): “Master usually isn’t like this. Is it because of the amnesia?”

Jiang Xiao Yu (Apocalypse Survival): “Hehe, maybe amnesia makes him more pure…”

Shen Meng Qi suddenly got interested. “Su Qian, darling, want me to give you an idea?”

“I’m not listening, I’m not listening—turtle chanting.” Su Qian refused without thinking.

In the group, Shen Meng Qi’s ideas were never reliable.

If it were Lin Yue, Su Qian might have considered it.

But Shen Meng Qi ignored Su Qian’s refusal. “Aren’t you always worried that once he recovers his memory, he’ll assassinate you? Then do this—before he remembers, you hit on him!”

“Are you crazy? Hit on him? What kind of joke is that?” Su Qian’s eyes widened in shock.

Shen Meng Qi would not let up. “Why not? Think about it. If you take him down, then when he recovers his memory, he won’t do anything to you!”

Lin Yue (Ancient Household Intrigue): “Hiss… put like that, it actually seems doable.”

Xia Meng Meng joined in too. “If Sister Qian Qian becomes my master’s wife, that actually sounds pretty nice.”

Su Qian’s mouth twitched.

She had heard that stupidity could spread, but she had never heard that being unreliable could spread too.

The group kept discussing it excitedly, with endless teasing and “plans.”

Su Qian’s face got hotter and hotter, and in the end, she fled the chat.

“Hit on him?”

Su Qian shook her head hard, trying to throw the thought out of her mind.

Forget it. Forget it. Her life mattered more.

In the room, Lu Yao lay on the bed with his eyes closed, but his thoughts churned nonstop.

Spirit stones, cinnabar, talisman paper, magic tools, divine wood…

Where was he supposed to find all the things needed for an array?

Lu Yao felt helpless.

In this unfamiliar world, he only knew Su Qian. If he rashly went to ask her, wouldn’t his act of pretending to have amnesia be exposed?

“Even with my ‘amnesia,’ she’s afraid of me. If she knew I’m not actually amnesiac, she’d probably be terrified and run away.”

Lu Yao sighed. “Little disciple, little disciple—just how much bad talk did you spread about me in front of Miss Su?”

Lu Yao was extremely curious.

I’m not some devil who kills innocents.

In the cultivation realm, the ones I killed were the ones who deserved it.

But Miss Su’s misunderstanding of him seemed very deep.

And for a while, that image would be hard to turn around.

Back when he had been in an egg-like state, Su Qian had taken good care of him. These past two days together, he could also feel Su Qian’s kindness.

So Lu Yao had no intention of killing her at all.

To change his “tyrant” image, Lu Yao had deliberately teased her. He had not even darkened his face the whole time.

But it seemed like… it backfired.

Lu Yao sighed softly.

Hard to handle.

…

Zhou Ran moved fast. In just one day, all the information about that scumbag Chen Zi Hao had already been sent to Su Qian’s phone.

Not only was it detailed all the way back to his past with Shen Meng Qi.

Even how many times his father had cheated was recorded.

“No wonder he’s such a scumbag. So it’s inherited.”

Su Qian’s finger slid lightly across the screen as her eyes scanned the dense text.

At that moment, Zhou Ran called.

“I already sent you the info.” Zhou Ran’s voice came through, carrying a hint of gossip. “Who is this person you had me investigate? Tsk, he’s really a scumbag.”

“A scumbag. Didn’t you say it too?” Su Qian said while eating breakfast. “But what surprised me is that he’s not dead!”

When she said it, a chill flashed in her eyes.

Zhou Ran grew interested. “Tsk, I’d say disasters live a thousand years. Such a huge car crash—his girlfriend died on the spot, and that scumbag only got a little scrape.”

Then Zhou Ran added, “Don’t you think heaven has no eyes?”

Su Qian put down her utensils, took a sip of water, and calmed herself before speaking. “Don’t worry. Someone will deal with him sooner or later.”

“Oh?” Zhou Ran caught a whiff of something unusual. “Do you have a plan? Tell me.”

“It has nothing to do with you.” Su Qian did not plan to drag Zhou Ran into it.

Zhou Ran got anxious. “Come on. Teaching a scumbag a lesson is everyone’s responsibility.”

“If I remember right, you’ve got plenty of girls around you too, don’t you?” Su Qian smiled. “Aren’t you a scumbag yourself? Are you scummy without even realizing it?”

Zhou Ran immediately protested. “Tsk, that’s different. This young master never spends girls’ money. Besides, I’m not sincere with any girl. Everything’s made clear. Each person gets what they want. I never deceive anyone.”

Those girls wanted Zhou Ran’s money. Zhou Ran wanted their bodies and looks.

Each got what they wanted. There really was nothing wrong with that.

Su Qian’s mouth twitched.

You were scummy in a fresh and unconventional way.

She had thought Zhou Ran would say, “I’m sincere with every girl.”

“Enough. It’s not your business. If I really need your help, I’ll let you know.” After Su Qian said that, she hung up.

“Hey, hey, hey-”

Zhou Ran howled on the other end, but the only answer was the busy tone.

He curled his lips helplessly. “Tsk. Not a good enough buddy.”

Su Qian sat on the sofa and opened Chen Zi Hao’s file again.

The file showed that after Shen Meng Qi died, Chen Zi Hao moved, changed jobs, and seemed to want to cut off the past and cover up his ugly history.

“Hm?”

While reading, Su Qian saw a familiar photo.

“Lu Jia Jia?”

Su Qian was slightly stunned.

Wasn’t that her university classmate?

She had even run into her at the mall a few days ago.

Su Qian skimmed it quickly.

Lu Jia Jia’s family background was good. At a gathering, she met Chen Zi Hao.

After learning about Lu Jia Jia’s family background, Chen Zi Hao used the same old tricks.

He tried every way to get close to Lu Jia Jia. Under his sweet talk and deliberate flattery, Lu Jia Jia was successfully tricked into dating him.

“This phoenix man really is… a dog that can’t stop eating shit.”
