"I..." Lou FeiāEr almost choked, her eyes widened, nearly burst out with curses.
She truly almost lost control.
What on earth is Xu Xin saying!
Even if itās an act, even if itās to gain enemy trust for Shi Wanyun, but...
With a professional demeanor, she held back, gritted her teeth, and fiercely said, "Youāll regret it!"
Saying that, she directly hung up the call.
"Whatās wrong?" Jin Yue saw Lou FeiāErās chest heaving and asked somewhat surprised.
Jin Yue knew very well what Lou FeiāEr was doing just now.
She was acting for the enemy that might be watching them, making the enemy trust Shi Wanyun, the "spy within a spy," even more.
But in the end, she seemed... genuinely a bit angry?
"...Itās nothing, Xu Xin that bastard is truly ungrateful! But Iām bound by contract to him, canāt resist, itās infuriating!" Lou FeiāEr got angrier as she spoke, "That woman must have issues, Xu Xin just insists on favoring her!"
She lifted her foot and, as if venting frustration, kicked the chair nearby, sending it flying.
The chair crashed against the wall with a "clang," and then shattered into pieces.
A blue-level wooden chair, kicked to pieces.
"Calm down." Jin Yueās expression was indifferent, her tone flat.
"Donāt you think she has issues?" Lou FeiāEr got carried away with her acting, staring at Jin Yue, "This Shi Wanyun, just seems so strange, right? Whether itās her background or her subsequent actions!"
"My life was saved by Xu Xin, whatever he says goes." Jin Yue had a blank expression, "He says Shi Wanyun is fine, then sheās fine, I only listen to him."
Lou FeiāEr rolled her eyes: "Seems like Iām one of your saviors too? Never mind, doesnāt matter... anyhow, our World Tree is mature, even if she has issues, so what?"
She shrugged, made a gesture of compromise, then flopped onto the sofa, resting her chin in her palm, looking slightly sulky.
This acting is truly astonishing, if not knowing the truth, Jin Yue wouldnāt find any flaws; Lou FeiāEr now seems like sheās genuinely expressing emotions.
In the room, Shi Wanyun could hear the commotion outside, especially the sound of the chair hitting the wall; she heard it clearly.
Though she didnāt go out.
This was all part of the plan.
She still hadnāt received any instructions from the mysterious voice, nor any contact from enemy personnel.
Maybe the other side didnāt trust her anymore, after all, she hadnāt completed the task of injecting the virus into the World Tree.
So she needed to gain some trust now, Lou FeiāEr was doing exactly that.
Suddenly, her pupils shrank in the next instant.
"Explain the reason for the mission failure."
Itās here!
The mysterious voice!
It seems, Lou FeiāErās performance was very successful.
The other side was successfully deceived.
...
Meanwhile, Xu Xin was feeling a bit drowsy.
Keke was sleeping soundly in his arms, and its ability to influence the surroundings was starting again.
Xu Xinās eyelids began to tremble.
"This little guy... No, I canāt fall asleep!" Xu Xin patted his face.
But ultimately, he slowly closed his eyes.
Forget it...
Since Keke can sleep, it means everything is safe now...
By the World Tree, in Crystal City, what is there to worry about...
...
"Hey! Hey! Wake up, brother!"
"Xu Xin! Xu Xin!"
Xu Xin was shaken awake.
As soon as he opened his eyes, he saw two girls looking down at him, shaking him.
These two familiar faces made him sit up instantly.
"Wenxi, Yingying! Youāre back!"
Xu Xin grabbed Li Wenxiās hand, showing a relieved smile: "Youāre finally back."
"Yes, Iām back!" Li Wenxi hugged Xu Xin, sniffing the scent on him, then said contentedly, "I missed you a lot!"
"Itās only been a few days." Xu Xin laughed, pinching her cheek, "But I do miss your resources, we all do."
"Hmph!" Li Wenxi punched him lightly, didnāt argue with him, a smile spreading across her face.
"Hey hey hey, what about me?" Xu Ying said, a bit jealous, "Leaving me aside? Forgetting your sister because of a woman, right!"
Xu Xin glanced at her, then at Li Wenxi: "Wenxi knows youāre..."
"Of course I know." Li Wenxi laughed, walking over to Xu Ying and hugging one of her arms, "Xu Ying, your sister, but 300 years older than you, right?"
So everyone is clear now.
"Then itās easier to discuss things. Now, everyone except me has moved to the World Tree, and... hissāā"
Xu Xin saw the time on his watch, sucking in a breath of cold air lightly.
... He slept for three and a half hours?
He immediately turned to look out the window.
Because of Crystal Cityās brightness, thereās no difference between day and night in the city, so he didnāt notice when he woke up, but now looking closely, the sky was already bright.
Itās daytime already!
Three and a half hours, calculated with a hundredfold time disparity, means inside itās...
Half a month has passed!
He actually slept for half a month!
Xu Xin turned and looked at the little creature on the sofa, smugly munching with closed eyes, and couldnāt help but feel a headache.
Truly being influenced quite seriously by this little creatureās ability!
"Whatās the matter?" Li Wenxi and Xu Ying both appeared puzzled.
