91 The Humiliation is Real (1/2)

Evil spirits!

This one was fueled by hatred at the moment of her death. She had failed to release the hatred after she died!

She refused to enter the gates of hell, and refused to go through the process of reincarnation!

Such spirits had given up on reincarnation, and offered their hearts to wickedness so that they could remain among men, and seek vengeance! These evil spirits no longer had their consciousness – they had no memory of who they were when they were alive. They do, however, only remember one thing —— revenge!

It was a long process to completely neutralize all this wickedness.

The entire morning had passed and the evil spirit in the Spirit Cage had yet to be quelled.

It was almost noon.

Chen received a pleasantly surprising phone call – he quickly dropped whatever he was doing, and sped off in his car.

It was Lan who had called. There was a jade stone exhibition, and she wanted to bring Xiaobei there to prepare for the opening of the jewelry store.

Having not seen nor heard from her for the entire week, Chen was very concerned about her. He drove like a maniac.

It was noon, Lan had arranged to meet up at a high-end restaurant. The façade of the restaurant exuded an air of opulence, perfused with a bedazzling quality. Seeing Chen's Bugatti Veyron approach, a young valet in a suit quickly ran over to serve him.

Chen saw Lan standing at the entrance, so he handed his keys over to the valet and hurriedly walked towards her.

”Mengchen!” Chen Xiaobei shouted from a distance.

Lan turned around and smiled at him. Her pretty little face lit up, and everything else around her paled in comparison. She was wearing an exquisite European coat, underneath it was a pastel yellow knee-length dress, exposing a pair of pearly snow-white calves.

She was as dazzling as ever, just like the stars in the dark sky, no one can block out her radiance.

”Master Chen, what kind of look are you giving me? Can you please not look at me like that? People may mistake us for siblings who were estranged for many years.” Lan teased playfully.

”You've lost weight…” Chen said gently, still looking at her in shock.

Lan was speechless, her exceptionally intelligent mind seemed to have short-circuited – she did not know how to respond.

You had lost weight.

These simple words struck the softest, most tender part of her heart.

”Whoa! Mengchen! Could this young handsome lad be your boyfriend? C'mon, introduce us!”

A group of young men and women rushed out of the restaurant, encircling and gaping at Chen Xiaobei as if he was a giant panda.

”He is Chen Xiaobei. He's not my boyfriend, he's just a friend from university,” Lan said earnestly.

”Haha, you don't have to explain! Explanations are just cover-ups!”

”Is that true? We've already heard about the both of you from Wu Junfan!”

”We all know it already... Hehehe…”

”Mengchen, you have a pretty good taste! This guy is really good looking; no wonder he could crush our Green Vine's most handsome guy, Wu Junfan!”

”Wu Junfan can only be placed in second! Now, the most handsome man in Green Vine City is standing right in front of us!”

”Not bad! Not bad! Our Mengcheng has a good eye…”

This group of youngsters' spirits was heightened.

Even though their conversations revolved around Chen, smart people would already have worked out that everything they said was to suck up to Lan.

No one even bothered to strike up a conversation with Chen.

It was obvious that in their eyes, Chen Xiaobei was just another boy toy for Lan. A forbidden boy toy that Lan would never acknowledge in public.

They could not be bothered to make friends with Xiaobei.

Chen was a little annoyed, and whispered, ”Mengchen, why didn't you tell me that there would be people joining us for lunch?”
