Lu Zijia looked as sincere as she could be. Those who didn’t know would really be deceived by her.

“Damn it! If you are not going to tell me the truth, you’ll never get another case in your life!” Luo Baode glared at her and used his trump card.

Lu Zijia: “…” The director was really something. Why did he suddenly use this against her?

Under Luo Baode’s fierce insistence, Lu Zijia still told him honestly.

After hearing Lu Zijia’s serious reason, Luo Baode couldn’t help but roar again, “What? Just to get a sparring partner? Wretched girl, was your head caught in the door when you went out today?”

Lu Zijia raised her hand to comfort her injured ear again and said with a helpless look, “Director, how can a Taoist Master mature without any experience?”

Luo Baode gritted his teeth. “You’re an alchemist!”

This wretched girl, couldn’t she just stay at home and be pampered? Why did she have to come out and look for excitement? Seriously… What should he, a loser who once had the dream of becoming an alchemist, say to that?

“No, I’m a Taoist Master.” Lu Zijia looked determined.

“No, you’re an alchemist.” Luo Baode was not backing down. He looked as though there was no room for discussion.

“No, I’m a Taoist master.”

“No, you’re an alchemist.”

“No, I’m a Taoist master.”

“No, you’re an alchemist.”

After the two of them went on talking about this for the umpteenth time…

“Alright, you’re an angel. Go to heaven then!” Luo Baode gave up on himself and looked like he didn’t want to see her anymore.

Lu Zijia: “…” Why did he always ask her to go to heaven when there was a disagreement?

Even though she could already fly on her sword now, she wouldn’t be able to last for long. She should wait until her strength increases a bit more before flying into the sky!

“Thank you, Director.” Lu Zijia reached out her hand silently with an expectant look.

“What? Go home and play if you have nothing to do.” Luo Baode looked disgusted, obviously wanting to chase her away.

Lu Zijia looked helpless. “Director, didn’t you just say that I’m an angel? Angels should save people from danger, just like Taoist masters.

“Director, hurry up and give me a case,” Lu Zijia said so matter-of-factly that Luo Baode almost vomited blood after hearing that.

This wretched girl’s ability to spout nonsense was really increasing!

In the end, Luo Baode had no choice but to hand a level two case to Lu Zijia.

“Go, go, go, go quickly. I don’t want to see you again for a long time!”

What he meant was: Don’t look for him again for the time being.

Lu Zijia smiled and didn’t say anything about this.

Seeing her like this, Luo Baode immediately covered his chest with one hand and had the urge to faint.

This wretched girl couldn’t be thinking of doing this a second time, right?!

It had to be said that the Director had unwittingly stumbled upon the truth!

…

In a villa area in a prime location.

Villa Number Twelve.

“Mom, how are you feeling?” Lin Kexin handed a cup of hot tea to her mother and asked worriedly.

Mrs. Lin’s face was pale and she seemed to be still in shock. Her hands, which were holding the teacup, were still trembling.

“No, I don’t feel good at all!”

Mrs. Lin took a sip of tea and tried to suppress the fear in her heart. She said fiercely, “Someone must have played a prank on our family. Otherwise, how would such a thing dare to come out in broad daylight?”

Hearing what Mrs. Lin said, Lin Kexin’s expression changed, and she looked helpless and conflicted.

“Mom, don’t think too much into it. Perhaps the water pipe was rusty, so the water became coppery and looked like blood.”
