Chapter 550: Chapter 545: Someone With an Ability Similar to Yours
When Bai Xiaotang spoke, she didn’t use the international language. The foreign individuals at the neighboring table did not understand, but they guessed her meaning from her expression and manner, and replied indifferently, "Miss, what are you saying? I don’t understand, could you please speak in the international language?"
Bai Xiaotang continued in Zhongzhou language, "If you don’t understand, go learn it. And is the translator beside you just decoration?"
"Tangtang, the gentleman didn’t say anything rude. Don’t get so worked up; it’s not polite." A sudden female voice made everyone at both tables turn around.
Chang Ru spoke in standard international language, wearing a fitting smile. After addressing Bai Xiaotang, she turned to the foreign individuals, "Sorry, sir, this is my cousin, she’s young and doesn’t speak well. Please don’t be upset. The two Hua Continent individuals you mentioned are not South Continent natives; they are officials from Hua Continent."
The foreigners looked surprised, glanced at each other, and a trace of worry flashed in their eyes.
Could it be that the Vis family from South Continent really intends to invest and cooperate with Hua Continent?
A few wanted to probe further and one of them made a friendly invitation to Chang Ru.
Chang Ru naturally didn’t want to miss such an opportunity. If she could seize this chance to cooperate with foreign enterprises, it would be very beneficial to her and the Chang Family.
Next to her, Bai Xiaotang saw Chang Ru had already joined the neighboring table and sat down again in a huff, her pretty doll-like face puffed up, even slightly reddened.
Lin Yuanyang, sitting beside her, poured her a glass of juice, "Why are you angry? If the Chang Family does close a few international deals, it’s still a contribution to Hua Continent."
"Why was I so blind before?"
"Maybe you didn’t meet a good ophthalmologist."
Bai Xiaotang was taken aback, then burst out laughing.
She raised her hand to pinch Lin Yuanyang’s cheek, "Xiao Yang, your mouth has gotten sweeter."
Lin Yuanyang immediately grabbed her wrist, forcefully pulled her hand away, and rolled his eyes at her, "You better stay blind."
Lin Chengsheng at the table watched the interaction between the two, feeling slightly moved, then looked at Bai Yusen, lost in thought.
On the other side.
Chuck Vis had always been resentful about Hua Continent individuals leading Beizhou, but with the ancestor pressing down, he didn’t dare to antagonize the Hua Continent leader.
Today was the first time he met Ji Ning.
An extremely young Hua Continent woman.
Such a person can lead Beizhou?
What kind of international joke is this?
Chuck Vis’s suppressed ambition reignited, calculation flashed in his eyes.
The elder across the table quickly saw his foolishness, turned his body slightly, and introduced Ji Ning, "Chuck, this is the new leader of Beizhou, Ms. Ji Ning; you can call her Grandma Ji."
Everyone: ...
Fu Yuanxuan choked on his drink, suddenly coughed a few times.
Chuck Vis was also shocked by the title, couldn’t help but look at the elder, "Grandfather, what did you say?"
"She and I are of the same generation." The elder’s voice was faint but carried a strong authority; Chuck Vis’s expression changed instantly, a trace of fear surfaced in his eyes, and his body instinctively hunched over like a child who’s done wrong.
Until Ji Ning said, "Don’t scare the children."
Only then did the elder withdraw his warning, led Masha and Barry to sit down, even pulling out chairs for the two children, extremely kind in demeanor.
Chuck Vis secretly lifted his head to look at Ji Ning, still couldn’t believe that this incredibly young woman was of the same generation as his great-grandfather.
Could it be she was over 150 years old?
But why didn’t she show any signs of aging?
Could her superpower have some special aspect?
Just like his grandfather’s superpower, it might be the reason she’s lived so long.
Thinking of this, Chuck Vis felt a bit fiery inside.
Who could refuse immortality?
The elder sighed inwardly, noticing that his grandson’s fate had once again changed.
Not only had his death been brought forward, but this time it was even more tragic than before...
This was the outcome of going against the Chosen Girl.
Ji Ning suddenly said, "Vis, help me look at someone."
"Who?"
"Someone with abilities similar to yours."
The elder was a bit surprised, "Where?"
"In the main hall outside."
...
Chang Ru didn’t expect to be invited by the Vis family into their private box.
If she remembered correctly, Ji Ning and Fu Yuanxuan were also dining in that box.
Previously, she would have gladly accepted, but now she intuitively felt it wasn’t good.
Especially since Ji Ning, that woman is quite mysterious.
Originally thought just to be a stray picked up by Bai Xiaotang, who would have thought she was a superpower user who joined the Security Bureau as a detective and even knew those three families.
Now coming to Beizhou, even personally welcomed into the box by the Vis family from South Continent.
She didn’t want to confront that woman.
"May I ask what’s the matter? I don’t know Mr. Vis." Chang Ru didn’t dare go, deliberately speaking loudly to attract the attention of those around.
Bai Xiaotang turned to look, seeing two attendants standing behind Chang Ru.
As she was about to get up, Lin Yuanyang pressed her down, "Sister Ning asked her to go over."
Bai Xiaotang was taken aback, lowered her voice to ask, "What does Sister Ning want with her?"
"Not sure."
Nearby, an attendant replied in broken Zhongzhou language, "Ms. Chang Ru, to be precise, it’s Mr. Vis’s guest Ms. Ji inviting you over."
"Ji Ning?"
Chang Ru pretended not to know, and looked at Bai Xiaotang beside her, asking, "Tangtang, why does your friend want to invite me over? Is there something important? She could come over and say it."
Bai Xiaotang’s face changed slightly, she immediately stood up, but before she could speak, Ji Ning’s voice came from the other side, "I’m very interested in your precognitive dream ability. Beizhou has many experts, have a look, is this a supernatural ability?"
Chang Ru was suddenly frozen, feeling as though she had dropped into an icy pit, a wave of cold creeping down from the top of her head.
"No need, my ability is unreliable at times. At most, it’s just having a strong sixth sense, not considered a superpower."
Chang Ru desperately wanted to remain calm, but Ji Ning’s gaze was too piercing, as if seeing through her soul, leaving her anxious and unsettled.
Ji Ning’s lips curved slightly, she said indifferently, "If that’s the case, then forget it."
Chang Ru’s tense muscle loosened, she nodded slightly at Ji Ning, sat back down, and reached for the glass on the table, taking a big sip.
The elder beside Ji Ning had already seen through Chang Ru’s details.
[How is it?]
[A bit peculiar.]
[How so?]
[Typically, everyone’s past is like a string of connected events, with no second scenario, but her past has two strings. But this doesn’t significantly affect the future, contrary to others.]
[When did the two scenarios start?]
[After she fainted from a high fever at age 10.]
[Her future shows no variation?]
[There’s variation, but the result is quite stable.]
Ji Ning confirmed some of her guesses, coldly chuckling in her heart.
So she’s living a second life.
Yet she’s truly wasting the opportunity given by fate.
The elder saw Ji Ning showing no sign of taking action, asked, "Shouldn’t we take her in for research? Her situation is quite rare."
"Accidental occurrences carry no research value."
