Chapter 264: Chapter 233 [A Smile that Hides a Blade]

"Ruoshui, what do you think about bringing Little Wolf to school for a day?"

The sunlight poured down as the red Land Rover Range Rover drove along a main road in Dong Hai, with Su Liuli driving and asking Situ Ruoshui, who was sitting beside her.

"That might not be a good idea," Situ Ruoshui considered seriously, "It could scare people."

"We could just say it’s a dog. Aren’t Alaskan Malamutes also quite large?" Su Liuli was somewhat unwilling to let go.

"But Little Wolf is clearly a wolf, and it doesn’t look like a dog at all," Situ Ruoshui protested weakly.

"Sigh... then forget it."

Hearing this, Su Liuli also felt that Little Wolf looked too fierce and scary. After thinking it over, she gave up on the tempting idea, and then thought of something, asking: "Right, Ye Fan that guy can communicate with Little Wolf. You’re also an Innate Mage, should be able to do it too, right?"

"Nope," Situ Ruoshui shook her head like a rattle-drum.

"Why not?"

"Although Big Brother and I are both Innate Mages, he is way more powerful than me and has been with Little Wolf since childhood, so there’s an emotional connection and they have developed a tacit understanding," Situ Ruoshui explained. "More importantly, Innate Mages can only interfere with the thoughts of living creatures, not control them. Maybe at the next realm it might be possible."

"Hmm, Ruoshui, how about I also start practicing Magic with you guys?"

Hearing Situ Ruoshui’s words, Su Liuli asked casually, her eyes involuntarily drifting toward the bracelet on Situ Ruoshui’s wrist.

That bracelet had been stripped from Duanmu by Ye Fan and later, after expending quite a lot of energy, was made into a low-level Magic Artifact and given to Situ Ruoshui, who could use the bracelet to activate some weak Magic for self-defense.

The four talismans had been processed by Ye Fan into offensive charms, with two storing Evil Yin Qi and two storing Ye Fan’s Power.

All four talismans were dripped with Su Liuli’s blood, which would allow her to activate them just by willing it.

As for the powder in the white medicine bottle Ye Fan gave to Su Liuli that day, it was what remained after refining ’Body Refining Pills,’ using it in her bath not only restored her spiritual energy but also helped purge impurities from her body, though its effects were far less than that of the actual Body Refining Pills.

"Sure, sure."

Upon hearing that Su Liuli wanted to practice Magic, Situ Ruoshui nodded happily and naturally said, "We can have Big Brother teach you then."

"Umm, isn’t learning Magic supposed to have very strict requirements? Can I do it?" Su Liuli asked timidly.

"This..."

Situ Ruoshui was taken aback for a few seconds before consoling her, "Sister Liuli, didn’t you say that you met a master in Southern Tibet who wanted to take you as a disciple? I think you must have a talent for it."

"That’s true. That hermit was like an Immortal, untouched by worldly desires. Since he was willing to take me as a disciple, it must be because of my exceptional talent. It’s just that I haven’t developed it yet, just like you in the past."

Su Liuli nodded thoughtfully. "I’ll ask Ye Fan about it later to see if he can ignite my talent."

"Sister Liuli, watch out for the red light ahead!"

Situ Ruoshui had more to say but was startled to see the traffic signal ahead changing from green to yellow and quickly warned her.

Su Liuli, hearing this, immediately stepped on the brakes.

"Screech~"

Subsequently, the vehicle’s tires produced a harsh screeching against the ground, leaving a clear set of tire marks.

"Screech~"

Just as the Range Rover came to a halt, an even more grating friction sound rang out as a Maybach sedan, moving too fast to brake in time, plowed straight into the Range Rover.

"Bang—"

A loud noise was followed by a tremendous impact, making the stationary Range Rover lurch forward under inertia.

"Ah—"

The strong impact caused both Su Liuli and Situ Ruoshui to lurch forward, with Su Liuli hitting her forehead against the steering wheel unexpectedly, blacking out, while Situ Ruoshui banged her head against the car window, feeling dizzy.

"Screech~"

The piercing friction noise sounded again as the Range Rover Su Liuli was driving slid out a good ten meters or so before stopping, narrowly missing several cars that swerved past the Range Rover in a dangerous dance.

"Sister Liuli, are you alright?"

As an Innate Mage, Situ Ruoshui’s consciousness was far stronger than Su Liuli’s, and she quickly recovered from the brief dizziness. She immediately grabbed Su Liuli’s arm, shaking her and asking.

"I’m... I’m okay."

Thanks to the seat belt, which absorbed most of the force, Su Liuli only had minor injuries. She began to regain consciousness after being shaken by Situ Ruoshui and replied vaguely.

"Sister Liuli, I’ll take you to the hospital!"

Even though Su Liuli said she was fine, Situ Ruoshui could clearly see that Su Liuli’s forehead had swelled with a bump and she looked dazed, which made her worry.

"No... it’s not necessary!"

Su Liuli forcefully shook her head, which felt a bit muddled, trying to quickly regain her senses. Then, looking through the rearview mirror, she saw at a glance the Maybach behind them with its shattered headlights and flipped hood, and a man in a black suit checking the car.

"This jerk!" Seeing this, Su Liuli’s temper flared up. As she spoke, she unbuckled her seat belt and prepared to get out of the car.

"Sister Liuli, what are you doing?" Situ Ruoshui asked anxiously.

"I’m going to settle the score!"

Always straightforward, Su Liuli never bottled up her anger. She wouldn’t have helped Ye Fan berate Bai Luo that day, oblivious to Bai’s Identity if it wasn’t for her candid nature.

Today, with her ’Aunt Flo’ visiting and in a period of irritability, it was bad enough to be rear-ended, but seeing the owner of the Maybach being more concerned about his luxury car than checking on her and Situ Ruoshui’s injuries irked her into a fury!

"How do you drive? Where are your eyes, can’t you see there’s a red light ahead?"

After getting out, Su Liuli clenched her fists, furious, and confronted the man in black, demanding to know. If they hadn’t been lucky and were hit sideways by another car, the consequences would have been unimaginable!

"If it wasn’t for you driving as slow as a snail, could I have hit your car?"

The man in black clothing spoke up, not only did he fail to admit his mistake and apologize, but he also turned things around and pinned the blame on Su Liuli, his tone brimming with aggression.

"You..."

Su Liuli trembled with rage.

However—

Before she could finish her sentence, the man in black interrupted her coldly, "Since no one’s hurt, just get lost quickly, don’t make trouble out of nothing!"

As the sound of his voice faded, the man in black completely ignored the furious Su Liuli, turned around, and walked away, not caring in the slightest.

In fact, that was indeed the case.

He didn’t take the minor rear-end collision to heart at all. On one hand, it hadn’t caused any injuries, and on the other, because he was a driver for the Guan Family—with the Guan Family’s status in Dong Hai, even if he had killed someone, at most he would only have to pay some money to settle the matter.

What he truly cared about was whether Guan Lin, who was sitting inside the Maybach, was upset—although he had driven the car extremely fast, following Guan Lin’s instructions, speeding all the way, due to his negligence, he nearly caused Guan Lin to be injured!

"You stop right there!"

Seeing the man in black not only refusing to apologize or make amends but also arrogantly making his leave, Su Liuli chased after him, full of anger.

"Scram!"

Worried that Guan Lin might be upset, the man in black himself was also in a foul mood. Seeing Su Liuli incessantly pursuing the matter, he abruptly stopped, gave her a shove, and pushed her to the ground.

"What are you doing??"

At this moment, Situ Ruoshui rushed over, helping Su Liuli up while shouting at the man in black.

That’s right...

It was a shout!

Situ Ruoshui had always been gentle, but at this moment, she was incensed by the man in black’s behavior, to the point that she felt the urge to use magic to teach him a lesson!

"Wu Gang."

As Situ Ruoshui’s shout subsided, before the man named Wu Gang could react, Guan Lin spoke up to stop him, slowly stepping out of the car, her gaze continuously fixed on Su Liuli.

When she first saw Su Liuli, she felt that Su Liuli looked somewhat familiar, but couldn’t remember where she had seen her, until she saw Situ Ruoshui, then it came to her—she had seen photos and information about Su Liuli and Situ Ruoshui in a report.

The report pertained to the ’kneeling incident,’ including the causes, course, outcome, and photographs and information on Ye Fan and others.

On that day, both Su Liuli and Situ Ruoshui were present, and Su Liuli even publicly insulted Bai Luo!

And this point was specially marked in the report!

Thinking of this, a thick killing intent flashed deep in Guan Lin’s eyes.

Hmm?

Sensing the faint trace of killing intent emanating from Guan Lin, Situ Ruoshui’s expression changed, and she hastily stepped in front of Su Liuli, her brows tightly furrowed as she stared at Guan Lin, asking, "What do you want to do?"

An Innate Mage?

Feeling the aura that emanated from Situ Ruoshui, Guan Lin was shocked, her steps faltered slightly, and then, moved by a thought, she walked up to Situ Ruoshui and Su Liuli with a look of apology, saying, "I’m sorry, the fault for what just happened lies with us. We are willing to take full responsibility and provide compensation."

"Who needs your compensation?"

Su Liuli, unable to contain her fury, got up from the ground and glared at the man in black, Wu Gang, saying, "What’s more, he assaulted someone just now, how do you explain that?"

"Exactly, you hit the young lady’s car and then resorted to violence; isn’t that too overbearing?"

"Miss, I suggest you call the police right now and let them deal with this matter!"

Seeing that Wu Gang not only caused a rear-end collision that almost turned tragic but also arrogantly assaulted someone, a few onlookers couldn’t stand by and stepped forward to support Su Liuli.

"Wu Gang, apologize to this young lady, right now!" Guan Lin commanded without turning her head, leaving no room for doubt.

"Yes, Miss Guan!"

Although Wu Gang didn’t know why Guan Lin was being so polite to Su Liuli and Situ Ruoshui, he didn’t dare to argue, instead, bowing respectfully in front of Su Liuli and saying, "I’m sorry, Miss, I take full responsibility for the rear-ending just now. And I should not have pushed you."

"Miss, I deeply regret the incident just now. We are willing to take full responsibility for everything, whether you go to the hospital for a check-up or need car repairs, we will bear all the costs," Guan Lin spoke again, apologetic look intensifying, "You can take down my number and call me anytime."

"No need, we are not short of that money." Although Su Liuli was straightforward, she was not unreasonable, and seeing Guan Lin apologize repeatedly, she had no choice but to suppress her anger.

"Miss, thank you for your understanding."

Guan Lin said, assisting Su Liuli in brushing off the dust on her clothes, and then stepped back, saying, "I still think I should give you my business card, in case you have any problems with your health, it would be easy to contact me."

Without answering, the rage within Su Liuli was extinguished, replaced by an ignited passion—her eyes became somewhat hazy, her cheeks suddenly flushed with a crimson hue, and her delicate body trembled uncontrollably!

"How dare a bitch like you insult my man?"

Witnessing this scene, Guan Lin sneered coldly to herself, the corners of her mouth forming a chilling curve!
