The scene that came out of nowhere shocked everyone.
The screen of light also flashed by.
Ou Lan looked at the string of beads on her right wrist by instinct. She heard a soft explosion faintly as soon as the light screen appeared. Subsequently, she felt her wrist go numb.
There were supposed to be six beads on the string of beads, but one was missing at the moment.
She looked down at the ground immediately and realized that there was a layer of white powdery substance under her feet.
Her heart skipped a beat.
'Could it have saved us?'
She was in slight disbelief.
Ye Wen saw what happened earlier too. Her pretty face was blank as disbelief filled her face.
'The light screen that saved us earlier … Did it come from the string of beads?'
The only man left at the scene had a change of expression. He was shocked by what happened earlier.
Looking at his partner who had passed out on the ground, he wanted to run after some hesitation. However, he was afraid of what the person behind him would do. Eventually, he clenched his teeth and charged at Ou Lan.
'I don't believe I can bump into a ghost in broad daylight!'
"Sister!" Ye Wen called out by instinct.
Ou Lan's pretty face changed. She looked at the string of beads on her wrist and grabbed Ye Wen tightly with determination written all over her face. She watched the man charging at them without moving.
Just when the man was approaching them …
Thud!
Another light screen exploded from Ou Lan's body.
The man felt like he had collided with an iron wall. His body flew out and landed hard on the ground. He passed out instantly.
Ou Lan and Ye Wen saw it clearly this time.
The light screen did indeed explode from the string of beads.
Ou Lan looked down immediately. Another of the five beads on the string of beads had exploded. There were only four beads left now.
"It's it, it's it!"
Ou Lan looked at the string of beads on her wrist in surprise and joy. She mumbled, "It saved us!"
If she was just guessing earlier, she was 100% sure now.
"Sister, did … did this necklace save us earlier?" Ye Wen looked at the necklace blankly. Her head was buzzing.
Ou Lan grabbed Ye Wen while her pretty face was flushing. "Wenwen, your cousin gave you a magic tool. It's a real magic tool. I heard that magic tools have functions that ordinary people can't imagine. For example, this one is for self-defense. The six pearls on it can save you six times during critical moments!" Ou Lan's pretty face was flushed.
Ye Wen's delicate body jolted and her face turned extremely pale. She could no longer hear what Ou Lan was saying.
I understand now!
I understand now!
So … so the reason he gave me such a birthday present wasn't because he was stingy, nor was he trying to embarrass me.
It was because this beaded necklace was the best and most valuable of all the birthday gifts.
No wonder he calmly said his gift was priceless when Liu Feng mocked him in front of everyone on my birthday.
Hehe, an artifact that could save people six times, how could it not be priceless?
I can't believe you gave me something so precious as a birthday present.
I can't believe I despised it and even ran out in front of everyone.
I can't believe I scolded you when I was drunk.
I held a grudge and ignored you when you were targeted and Liu Feng was about to fire you.
I was wrong, I was so wrong!
Haha, so I was really wrong.
Drip, drip!
Ye Wen's tears flowed like pearls from a broken necklace as she thought about it. They flowed out of her eyes and wet her cheeks.
She had never felt so bitter, regretful, ashamed, and all kinds of emotions at this moment burst out completely.
Ou Lan, who was standing aside, asked immediately after noticing that she was crying all of a sudden, "Are you alright, Wenwen?"
Ye Wen did not feel embarrassed at all this time. She did not extend her hand to wipe her tears because she could not wipe away the regret in her heart no matter how hard she tried.
She lifted her eyes to look at the beaded necklace on Ou Lan's hand while sobbing. She bit her lip and asked, "Can you return … return it to me?"
That's what he gave me.
I gave it to someone else without knowing what it's worth.
At that moment …
She was extremely regretful!
Ou Lan was slightly stunned. Subsequently, she removed the necklace and placed it in Ye Wen's hand without even thinking about it. Just when she was going to say something, she realized that Ye Wen was running along the cornfield while covering her mouth.
"Where are you going, Wenwen?"
Ou Lan stopped her immediately.
Ye Wen did not turn around. Instead, she ran even faster. She wanted to look for him and apologize to him personally.
'I'm sorry, cousin …'
…
At Yaffle Cosmetics Company.
In the meeting room when it was almost time to get off work.
Ye Chen sat on the high seat and listened to the general manager, Gao Hong's work report expressionlessly.
At that moment, his phone rang.
Ye Chen smiled apologetically at the people below. Subsequently, he picked up his phone and walked to the corridor outside of the meeting room.
It was the Patriarch of Hell calling.
He had bought a phone for the patriarch earlier and got him a sim card.
As soon as the phone was connected, the Patriarch's tearless voice came from the other side. "Master, who did you offend? This is my first day as a bodyguard, and I'm already being targeted by someone."
"What happened?" Ye Chen's heart sank.
At the same time.
In a secluded alley near the Little Swan Kindergarten, a black puppy sat on the ground.
A little black dog was sitting on the ground, and beside it was a little girl of four or five years old. She seemed to have fallen asleep.
The black puppy was holding an iPhone with both of its front paws. It was spitting at the phone while looking speechless. If an outsider were to see that, they would definitely be scared to death.
Today, the kindergarten was holding an event to visit the elderly in the community. However, the students were separated by a car on their way back. Subsequently, two hunks got out of the car and targeted the little girl, Mengmeng.
The patriarch was hiding in Mengmeng's school bag at the time. After noticing that, he did not want to expose his identity in front of everyone. Therefore, he secretly urged Mengmeng to run into the alley through telepathy. His goal was to lure the people behind him to a secluded place.
To prevent the little girl from being scared, the patriarch blew at her to make her fall asleep.
Killing intent flashed through Ye Chen's face after hearing that. He said with a scoff, "You did great. Leave one of them alive and kill the rest!"
"Can I eat the remaining one?" The patriarch smacked his lips. He was about to throw up from all the dog food he had been eating recently. He was thinking if he should change his taste.
"Sure!"
Ye Chen hung up the phone after saying that. He looked ferocious. He was not worried about Mengmeng's safety. After all, with the old monster, the Patriarch of Hell, around, nobody below the master level could hurt him.
He was furious that someone had set their eyes on him. On top of that, they had touched his reverse scale!
Since that was the case, he would kill them!
He would turn the world upside down and blood would flow like a river!
…
After the Patriarch of Hell hung up, his furry ears twitched. He then looked at the entrance of the alley with his dog eyes and grinned.
"You two brats, it's your bad luck to bump into me!"
