Chapter 93: Chapter 93 Zhou Shihao’s men also participated

"Rose, for the time being, just stay in Lin Mansion," Su Luo said to Rose after signing up.

However, Rose shook her head, "Su Luo, you can stay here, but I must go back. I can’t let Shen Jie be alone by Zhou Shihao’s side."

"But if you go back, what will you do if Zhou Shihao tries to harm you again?" Su Luo frowned.

Rose smiled, "If I go back, I’ll just be the pitiful woman abandoned by you, the scoundrel. There won’t be any danger in accompanying Shen Jie. At most, Zhou Shihao may just ask me some questions. Don’t worry, I definitely won’t be walking to my death."

Su Luo was still not at ease.

However, at that moment, Rose’s cellphone rang; it was a call from Shen Qingzhi.

Rose waved her phone in front of Su Luo, saying, "See, I told you there’d be no problem."

Then, Rose answered the call, and as expected, it was Shen Qingzhi inquiring about her well-being and asking her to return.

"Aunt Shen..." Although Su Luo wanted to speak a few words to Shen Qingzhi, he knew it wasn’t the right time and had to hold back.

After Rose left, Lin Ruoxi suddenly came over and said, "Don’t worry, I’ve already explained to her that I only said you were my fiancé in order to save you."

Su Luo was just about to respond when he noticed Lin Ruoxi had already turned her head and walked away after finishing her statement.

Clearly, she wasn’t interested in having an extended conversation with him.

This left Su Luo feeling slightly embarrassed.

"It looks like she hasn’t let go of last time’s incident," Su Luo said with a bitter smile. He couldn’t blame Lin Ruoxi; it was really his mistake for mistaking her for someone else and taking advantage of her.

It was surprising enough for Su Luo that Lin Ruoxi was merely cold instead of angry, which was already beyond his expectations.

"Miss Lin, I am very grateful for you coming to my rescue this time," Su Luo said, looking at Lin Ruoxi’s retreating figure.

However, he received no response from Lin Ruoxi.

"Ruoxi is cold on the outside but warm on the inside. Otherwise, she wouldn’t have acknowledged you as her fiancé in public to save you," Lin Songbai appeared out of nowhere and patted Su Luo on the shoulder with a smile.

"I know, and that’s why I’m grateful," Su Luo said.

Of course, while he was grateful to the Lin Family, he also harbored a bit of resentment deep down.

Ever since Lin Wu tried to kill him, he had vowed to never let his life be threatened by anyone again.

Yet, after facing the threat from Lin Jiangpu, he now had to stay at Lin Mansion to avoid calamity because of Zhou Shihao.

This made Su Luo feel frustrated.

In the following week, Su Luo didn’t go anywhere else, staying within Lin Mansion to cultivate.

However, the money Su Luo had was running low, so he could only rely on the little he had left to buy some more medicinal herbs, which he directly consumed and refined using the Chaos Creation Technique.

Finally, after a week had passed, Su Luo broke through from the early stage of the Fifth Level of Qi Refinement to the mid-stage.

However, as a result, Su Luo’s finances had hit rock bottom.

This inevitably made Su Luo lament that cultivation was indeed very expensive.

’Poor literacy, rich martial arts’ indeed had its reasoning.

"Little Friend Su, today is the day the Jiangbei Martial Association is holding its recruitment assessment. How are you prepared?" asked Lin Songbai during breakfast.

"My condition is fine," Su Luo smiled.

Now, having reached the mid-stage of the Fifth Level of Qi Refinement, he was at the strongest point of his life and felt very confident.

"That’s good to hear," Lin Songbai said, while also sharing some news with Su Luo, "However, I’ve also received information that this time, Zhou Shihao has sent people to participate in the Jiangbei Martial Association’s assessment. I’m afraid you will have to face Zhou Shihao’s men and compete with them again."
