The female manager, wearing white gloves, pinched the "Jade Pill," her right eye revealing a triple Magic Array, with Mysterious Engravings slowly rotating.
"No problem," the female manager answered.
"Well, this one is for you."
"Thanks, boss!" The manager's eyes flashed with excitement.
Whether she used it herself or sold it for Money, it was a very good thing.
Turquoise Pool put away the Jade Bottle and said to Yang Qinglan, "It's been a pleasure working with you. Can I come to you for Alchemy in the future?"
Hmm... He could use the Imperial Mecha to find people when the time came.
"Join forces?" Yang Qinglan suddenly asked Turquoise Pool, "Let's kill them together, tonight."
Turquoise Pool was a bit surprised but laughed merrily, she said:
"I didn't expect you to suggest this, but apart from the benefits, taking action in the real world is like challenging the Special Warfare Bureau... Are you prepared for that?"
"Didn't you just say it?" Yang Qinglan spoke calmly, "They don't take the Special Warfare Bureau seriously, we just need Changzhou to act more arrogantly, let them strike first."
Turquoise Pool rested her palm on her radiant face, tapping her cheek with her index finger.
The finger stopped, and she said, "If they strike first, and there's no danger to life, I'll help you out, and you'll owe me a favor, to help me with a killing next time."
"Deal—" Yang Qinglan didn't finish, as Li Qianxia grabbed her wrist.
She cleared her throat and kicked Li Changzhou under the table.
Li Changzhou, who had been slouching, sat upright: "Killing is alright, but we can't go against morals, and we will back off if there's a risk to life."
"Why are you more pedantic than a woman?" Turquoise Pool tilted her fair, slender neck, feigning annoyance in a way that was actually pleasing.
"Can't help it, my companion here lives too detached, contemplating philosophical issues; I have to deal with these trivial matters."
"Wait a second." Li Qianxia unexpectedly objected, "'My home'? Isn't it just me in your house now?"
"Isn't there also a younger brother and a sister?" Li Changzhou was about to lecture the ungrateful Li Qianxia when the even less tactful Turquoise Pool spoke first.
"Heh." Li Qianxia scoffed.
The look she gave surprised both Yang Qinglan and Turquoise Pool.
"We have nothing to do with them." Li Changzhou still maintained an indifferent attitude.
What Turquoise Pool meant was their parents' children from a remarriage: a son from the father's side, a daughter from the mother's side.
These powerful people who liked to snoop into others' backgrounds were indeed annoying. That was what he was interested in.
"I won't mention it again." Turquoise Pool rested her hand on Li Qianxia's hand.
"It's okay." Li Qianxia had already calmed down, appearing indifferent.
"Let's go!" Turquoise Pool stood up, her figure graceful, white hair cascading over her shoulders, her hips exquisite, "Time to buy clothes."
"Clothes?"
"You plan to go to the ball dressed like this?"
"Great, I've been wanting to try on a formal gown!" Li Qianxia's mood improved.
"I guarantee, Qian Xia, in a gown you'll definitely make everyone's eyes stick to you."
"I think so too!" Li Qianxia grinned, agreeing wholeheartedly.
The two left the terrace, walked into the café, and got ready to leave through the main door.
"Let's go." Yang Qinglan looked amusingly at Li Changzhou who had collapsed back into his seat.
"I didn't sleep last night, so tired."
"Come on." Yang Qinglan offered her hand with a smile, as the seaside breeze blew, a lock of hair falling onto her lips.
Li Changzhou promptly reached out his hand to let her pull him up, now that got his energy back!
