Chapter 767: Chapter 747: ’Rose Demon’ Part 5
"This one looks nice." Luo Qianqian wasn’t shy, scanning left and right before directly pointing to a pink crystal on the wall.
Who knew Jimo Xiao would frown, "That’s a crystal, not easy to take off."
Luo Qianqian blinked, "Actually, anything you give is good. With so many nice things here, I’d be dazzled and couldn’t pick them all..."
"That’s true..." Jimo Xiao agreed somewhat approvingly, "Then come over to get it when you’re heading back. I’ll finish this thing for you first."
Mo Yu was sliced into a thin piece, and then they watched as the old master stretched it directly into a lead bucket on the side, followed by a layer of transparent film, and only after that did he take it out to do some delicate work.
Luo Qianqian didn’t dare disturb and walked aside, quietly taking out a coin, trying to pry a piece of jade off the wall.
When Jimo Xiao finished, he couldn’t help but laugh at her actions, shaking his head, "Like this one? I’ll give you two good pieces."
Upon hearing his voice, Luo Qianqian quickly stood up, waving her hand, "I was just curious to see how those things are embedded in the wall, but I couldn’t scrape off even a bit after a long time."
Jimo Xiao, with a helpless expression, handed her the card, "If it breaks, you’ll still need to find me to fix it, you know?"
"Even if it doesn’t break, I’ll come to see you when I have time." Luo Qianqian grinned, "Next time I’ll bring you a photo of Grandpa Kong."
Jimo Xiao smiled, his face full of helplessness, "Alright, don’t keep the people upstairs waiting, go ahead."
Luo Qianqian nodded, bowed politely to say goodbye, and then slowly ascended the stairs.
"Kid Kong sure has a good eye," Jimo Xiao nodded, full of admiration.
Humming a tune and picking materials, having something cheerful made work especially joyful.
Changsun Wei, seeing Luo Qianqian come up with the card in hand, nodded, "Let’s go."
Luo Qianqian looked at Changsun Wei, blinking, "Shi Bahao hasn’t come back yet?"
Changsun Wei handed her a bag, "He’s gone back to sleep. Do you think everyone is like you?" He chatted idly, wondering how two people with a hundred years between them could have so much to talk about?
Luo Qianqian hummed discontentedly and checked her clothes. Not bad, a white T-shirt, jeans, a black jacket, and white underwear—nothing too flashy. The shoes had some pink, but were mostly white, so they were acceptable.
She completely missed the zipper on the clothes, the pattern on the shoes, and even the logo on the T-shirt were all a familiar cat.
Taking Luo Qianqian to a guest room, Changsun Wei showed clear impatience, "You change first, I’ll wait outside."
Who knew Luo Qianqian would be suspicious, "There isn’t going to be another inconspicuous person appearing here, is there?"
"...No." It took a good while for Changsun Wei to realize who Luo Qianqian was referring to.
He shook his head, resigned. That was a special case, okay? Don’t think of all of them like that, okay?
The main thing is, most people in the group wouldn’t reside here, okay? There were very few who could stay here, and the chances of encountering that guy were even slimmer.
However, looking at Mo Yu’s card, he was actually surprised as well, for up till now there had not been a card of that color...
```
It did resemble a certain allure of a black card, as he leaned against the door, Changsun Wei couldn’t help but smile reluctantly.
Luo Qianqian had changed her clothes, casually stuffing the ones she took off into a bag and shoving both books into her backpack.
Seeing her come out so quickly this time, Changsun Wei was quite surprised and led her straight to a door that looked incredibly flashy.
The door looked plain enough, but before they even got there, they could smell the intense scent of roses, not perfume, but... the fragrance of flowers.
Luo Qianqian watched Changsun Wei stop in front of this door, the corners of her mouth twitching, "Are we about to meet a Flower Demon? A Rose Demon?"
Changsun Wei’s cheeks uncontrollably trembled, but he had to admit, Luo Qianqian made sense. Even he had been drawn into the scene with rosebuds ready to bloom and an elf dancing among the roses, turning around with a smile that paled the most delicate make-up, with every grin and every frown, she was peerlessly beautiful.
Thinking of that face, he had to acknowledge that maybe only the word "fairy" could describe his beauty, right?
"Who is inside..."
"I’ve already guessed who it is," Luo Qianqian cut off Changsun Wei before he could continue, her face calm. Seeing the way Changsun Wei had just spaced out, she knew this person must fit the image of a fairy. She had only seen one such person before: "I’ve met him."
Changsun Wei nodded, indeed, they had met before.
After knocking on the door, he then said to Luo Qianqian, "I won’t accompany you inside, I’m going to take a nap."
Luo Qianqian didn’t know if it was because she had slept in that small cabin, but she didn’t feel sleepy at all and was still very much awake.
Following a pleasant invite to come in, Luo Qianqian pushed the door open, and to her surprise, there was a garden??? What??? A real garden, with soil and a fence, and after opening the door, there were even a few steps. Luo Qianqian went up and stood dumbfounded, looking at the colorful field of roses in front of her. The room was huge, she wouldn’t even be surprised if there were an artificial lake inside.
"We meet again," from among the flowers, there was a rocking chair, beside it a low table, and next to that a hanging chair.
Luo Qianqian walked over in a daze, looking at the elegant figure holding a teacup, of ambiguous gender, "Last time we met, it was you who barged in, okay?"
Luo Qianqian rolled her eyes, glanced left and right to make sure there were no others around, and no other chairs, "Isn’t it a waste of resources to grow flowers inside?" Surely with the sun and water outside, it seems very odd to do everything artificially inside?
"Resources?" The hermaphroditic Rose Fairy raised an eyebrow, shaking his head helplessly, "Have a seat first, let me introduce myself. My name is Diwu Yan, gender male, hobbies female, from the Detection Group."
Luo Qianqian sat in the hanging chair, looking perplexed, "Is it fashionable here to have compound surnames?"
Diwu Yan raised an eyebrow, "Aren’t you the same? It’s just a coincidence."
Luo Qianqian pursed her lips, "What do you want with me?"
"Have you already completed the first level of Mental Power Traction Qi throughout your body?" Diwu Yan didn’t state a reason but directly asked this question.
Luo Qianqian paused for a moment, then nodded.
Diwu Yan nodded, "Just as I thought..." He fell silent as if contemplating something.
Luo Qianqian thought for a bit before slowly speaking, "You should know about my situation... I want to know, how can I get the Jimo Family..."
"You want to represent the Jimo Family in the ranking competition?" Diwu Yan was quite surprised, "You better think this through. This isn’t something where you represent the Jimo Family once and the Diwu Family the next time. In our group, apart from those who originally belong to a certain family, no one else would choose to stand in for someone else’s family..."
