Another method of classification?
They were just trying to find a new way to talk about freedom and equality. These commoners really didn't want to give up …
When would they understand that every number on the streets of Nuo Jin had already marked out the trajectory of their lives?
No matter how hard they tried, they could not avoid being crushed and toyed with by people of a higher level. They were like tiny insects that did not know their own limits …
Hardedef subconsciously sneered. He had wanted to use even sharper words to mock the other party and let him understand the cruel truth of the matter.
But when he met those dark eyes that did not contain a smile, he suddenly froze. The words he wanted to say were stuck in his throat.
The aristocratic youth panicked for no reason.
Although the hall was brightly lit by the bright lights, at this moment, he vaguely felt as if he was surrounded by an endless thick black fog. Even his vision dimmed for a moment.
The black fog was chaotic and disorderly. It was constantly in the process of flowing, and within it, there was a prying gaze.
That gaze did not contain any malice. It was just the curiosity of a baby who had just opened his eyes to a new world.
A strong sense of curiosity, so strong that when it fell on the body, one would feel a trace of coldness … com
But in the blink of an eye, that hallucinatory scene disappeared. It was as if that gaze was just a passer-by who glanced at the scenery next to them.
Hardedef was stunned. When he came back to his senses, he saw the surrounding guests whispering to each other.
He suddenly realized that it was very stupid of him to stay where he was. But he did not know what had just happened. He could only immediately become flustered and exasperated. He flew into a rage out of humiliation and said without thinking, "Classification? Could it be that I did not make it clear enough? Forgive me for being blunt, but you really shouldn't be here … If not for Miss Ji, you would probably never know what Area A is like. I don't think I need to say more about how you got that invitation … "
Lin Jie hammered his palm and interrupted, "Ah, if we're talking about invitations … I did go through the back door, but it's Eldest Miss Ji's birthday party. It's up to her to decide who she wants to invite. There's no such thing as whether it should be here or not. It's up to her whether she likes it or not."
Hardedef looked at the other party's self-righteous look and was stunned. He said, "You …"
Lin Jie shook his head and sighed. He probably knew why Ji Zhixu was cheated by that scumbag.
In this kind of living environment, where every man around her was ambitious and thinking about how to get both her and Luo Er's resources, if a warm man came over, he would probably be able to get her quickly.
He nodded, rubbed his chin, and continued, "In other words, if Miss Ji doesn't like it, it shouldn't appear at this birthday party."
Hardedef couldn't understand what this guy was saying. He frowned and said, "I say, you don't really think …"
Lin Jie said matter-of-factly and seriously, "Mr. Hardedef … I think it's time for you to go home and take a look. From here, turn left and walk straight to the main door. I won't tell you the way to your house, but you should remember how to get there."
Hardedef looked left and right, his face full of confusion. "Me? Go home? Are you serious? "
Lin Jie nodded.
Hardedef's expression was strange, and then he laughed out loud. "Haha, hahahaha … I realized that I might have been wrong about you. You're different from the average commoner — you're especially interesting."
He looked at Ji Zhixu and pointed at his temple with a subtle expression. He asked, "Miss Ji, are you sure there's nothing wrong with your guest?"
Regardless of whether Ji Zhixu was sure or not, Hardedef began to suspect that this guy who hadn't said his name until now had a screw loose.
However, Ji Zhixu's expression wasn't as awkward or embarrassed as he thought it would be. Instead, it was serious.
She opened her mouth with difficulty. "Mr. Lin … you …"
When Lin Jie reached out to stop her, she already had a premonition — since Boss Lin didn't let her do anything, it meant that he would personally take care of this matter this time.
However, from all the signs, the severity of the matter seemed to have exceeded her expectations.
What made her most uncertain was that she couldn't tell if Boss Lin was angry or if he was purely trying to satisfy his own interests …
"Ah, ah … I almost forgot."
Lin Jie turned to look at Ji Zhixu and coughed awkwardly. He didn't know what to say.
— Actually, I'm a superpower user?
— I'm very sorry to keep it from you, but I might be different from you. For example, I know a bit of magic …
Either way, it seems a bit abrupt.
"Oh, forget it … I'll explain it to you later." Lin Jie gave the flustered Ji Zhixu a comforting and warm smile. "In any case, I won't make things difficult for Miss Ji. Oh, right, remember to call the police."
Ji Zhixu looked at this "reassuring" smile and couldn't feel at ease. "Call the police?"
Lin Jie nodded. "Yes, call the police. Inform Yue Sefu and Ke Laode to prepare to save him."
Hardedef watched the two of them talk to themselves and couldn't take it anymore. He angrily raised his voice and said, "Miss Ji, don't tell me you're willing to stand against the Fred family for this commoner?"
"No."
Ji Zhixu shook her head. Before Hardedef could rejoice, she continued, "I've never stood on the same side as you."
Hardedef's face stiffened and turned green. He felt that his patience had reached its limit. From the beginning until now, although he had been mocking her in a superior position, the end result was … he was being played like a clown.
That's enough!
Hardedef gritted his teeth and tightened his grip on the cup in his hand. He was ready to launch an attack. Since Rolle didn't know what was good for him, then he didn't need to give face to these commoners … They were just a few commoners.
That's right. Even Ji Zhixu was just a Terror Grade. She was nothing to the Fred family.
Although he had heard that she had some contact with the mysterious bookstore owner and had received some gifts, he hadn't heard much about it afterward. How could such a high and mighty person keep paying attention to insignificant ants?
Yes, that's right …
As Hardedef thought of this, he suddenly felt a chill run down his spine. His intuition was like a firefly flashing in the dark night. The sound of its flapping wings made his scalp go numb.
The mysterious bookstore … owner?
"I'm just an unknown bookstore owner. My name isn't worth mentioning. In terms of status, I'm indeed a far cry from everyone here."
That was how the ordinary-looking youth in front of him had introduced himself.
Hardedef's pupils suddenly shrank. He quickly raised his head and saw a servant in the crowd pushing the others aside and running towards him. He shouted while panting, "Young Master Hardedef, hurry, go back …"
Hardedef reached out to support him. An indescribable fear spread in his heart, making his lips tremble and unable to speak.
The servant raised his head, revealing a face that was distorted by tears and snot. "Something happened, something happened … all … all of them … are dead …"
Hardedef almost didn't hear what the servant said after that. He tried his best to turn around and look at Lin Jie, but he didn't see the youth's face. He only saw a pure black figure standing in the middle of the crowd and gracefully bowing to him.
