Lady Boss: "?"
Liu Haoming: "???"
Everyone: "???"
Everyone was a little confused. The girl was clearly making a fuss just now, saying that she and Brother Xun were true love. She even threatened to jump off the building to be with Brother Xun, but in the blink of an eye, she no longer knew who Brother Xun was?
What kind of show was this? Even if you were heartless, you wouldn't fall out like this!
"Xiao Qing, you …"
Lady Boss wanted to say something but stopped, feeling that something was wrong.
"Mom, Dad, I've thought it through."
The girl suddenly calmed down. Her voice was no longer shrill and hysterical, but full of rationality.
When she saw the young man in white, the demonic barrier in her mind was instantly removed. Now that she had regained her clarity, not only was she no longer infatuated with Brother Xun, but she also hated him very much and felt ashamed of her previous foolish behavior.
"I really shouldn't continue like this. I want to cut all ties with Brother Xun. I promise you that Daoist Yu will perform a ritual for me."
"Really?!"
Lady Boss and the boss on the rooftop were overjoyed. Even the old man dressed as a Daoist priest stroked his beard and said with a smile, "Good."
"Really."
The girl nodded seriously. Then, she changed the topic and pointed behind Lady Boss. "But there's one thing. Mom, can you let that big brother behind you accompany me? Without him, I don't have the courage to break up with Brother Xun. "
A commotion broke out in the crowd. Everyone looked at the person behind Lady Boss.
"Me??"
Li Zhengkang pointed at himself, dumbfounded.
"Not you." The girl shook her head. "You're not good-looking. You're worlds apart from Brother Xun."
Li Zhengkang: "???"
Good girl, I was just watching the show and you stabbed me in the back!
"I'm talking about that big brother in white."
The girl pointed again, this time clearly pointing at Liu Haoming.
"Big brother, I'm being pestered by bad people. Can you help me?"
She asked Liu Haoming for help not because she was infatuated, but because she really needed his help. Back then, when she was pestered by Big Brother Xun, Big Brother Xun had told her that if she wanted to completely get rid of him, she had to find a man who was more handsome than him, or else he would never let the girl go.
"How can I help you?"
Liu Haoming frowned slightly. He was suddenly asked for help by a girl who wanted to commit suicide by jumping off a building. Even with his calm temperament, he felt baffled.
Beside him, Dong Xue and Ling Wei instantly became alert. Combined with the special mission they were tasked with, they felt a strong sense of conspiracy.
"You just need to … accompany me."
The girl bit her lip and answered.
Dong Xue and Ling Wei moved closer to Liu Haoming. They were prepared to attack the girl if the situation went awry.
"Xiao Qing, come down first. Dad will think of a way for you!"
At this moment, the boss on the rooftop suddenly said.
The girl glanced at him and nodded. She took one last look at Liu Haoming before leaving the edge of the rooftop and disappearing from everyone's sight.
"Everyone, I'm sorry. I've made a fool of myself because of some family matters."
Seeing that her daughter was safe, the lady boss heaved a sigh of relief and turned around to apologize to the tourists.
"It's fine. Fortunately, your girl didn't really jump down. Otherwise, something big would have happened!"
"I was scared just now. Lady boss, you really have to discipline your daughter. Puppy love is terrible!"
"Girls at this age are the most ignorant. Any boy who treats her a little better can steal her soul and make her unswerving."
Everyone was talking at once. They just treated the farce as an ordinary family dispute. Now that the show was over, they returned to the hall to continue with their dinner.
Liu Haoming didn't go back because his intuition told him that even if he went back to the hall, the lady boss would come looking for him again.
Sure enough, when almost everyone left, the lady boss said to Liu Haoming with a face full of shame, "Little brother, I'm really sorry about what happened just now. I'm really sorry!"
"It's okay. Girls still need to be disciplined."
Hearing this, the Lady Boss hesitated and said, "Little brother, I have a presumptuous request. Can … can you go upstairs with me and talk to me alone?"
This time, without waiting for Liu Haoming to answer, Li Zhengkang next to him said first, "Auntie, the four of us are friends and came to Mount Mang together. If you have something to say, just say it. Don't hide it."
Li Zhengkang was not stupid. Just now, the girl not only stabbed him, but also acted strangely, which made him feel that something was wrong. He even suspected that this farmhouse was a black shop. Naturally, he wouldn't let Liu Haoming talk to the lady boss alone.
"Yes, auntie. If you have something to say, just say it." Dong Xue also said coldly.
Now she felt more and more that there was something wrong with the farmhouse. Just now, there were so many people watching. The girl inexplicably asked Liu Haoming for help. And Liu Haoming was the target of their protection. She would never believe that there was nothing fishy about it.
The lady boss's face changed back and forth twice. Finally, she made a decision. "Well, I'll talk to the four of you. But can you come upstairs with me first? This is a special case, so it's not good to let too many people know about it. "
Liu Haoming did not want to meddle in other people's business and wanted to directly refuse. But when he met the lady boss's pleading eyes, his heart suddenly softened.
At this moment, standing in front of him was not only the lady boss of the farmhouse, but also the mother of a daughter. Liu Haoming only had a father and not a mother since he was young. When he heard people sing "Only Mother Is Good in the World" when he was young, he always had mixed feelings. The lady boss's love for her daughter touched the depths of his heart.
"Okay, I'll go upstairs with you," Liu Haoming said.
Li Zhengkang tried to persuade him. "Brother Hao …"
"It's okay. This is a legal society. Everything has to be done according to the law." Liu Haoming comforted him.
He agreed to help not only because he sympathized with the lady boss, but also because he trusted his own strength. After all, he was a supernatural being who had awakened his supernatural ability and could easily lift an abandoned warehouse with his psychokinesis. He was not worried that he would be betrayed.
"Alright, I'll go upstairs with you," Li Zhengkang said.
Dong Xue and Ling Wei looked at each other. Actually, they did not want Liu Haoming to meddle in other people's business. There was clearly something wrong with this farmhouse, but they could not stop Liu Haoming. This was because there was an important principle in their mission, and that was to never interfere with whatever Liu Haoming wanted to do. To put it bluntly, even if Liu Haoming wanted to commit murder and arson in front of them, they had no right to stop him.
Although they did not know why the Grand Secretary Of State had set this principle, it was more important than anything else. Whether it was them, the Transcendent members who were hiding in the dark, or even the Grand Secretary Of State himself, they had to abide by it.
"Let's go together," the two of them said.
"Thank you!" The lady boss thanked them profusely. "I'm really sorry, but we really have no other choice!"
