The moment Movie Queen An finished her sentence.
Bo Jiu's phone rang in her pocket.
The unique ringtone made her pause. She whipped her phone out. The caller ID wasn't displayed but the string of numbers was extremely familiar to her.
Besides, she knew that Hoshino wouldn't have called her if it wasn't something serious.
Bo Jiu turned to Movie Queen An. "Apologies, I have to take a call." Then she stood up.
When she reached the entrance, her entire aura changed, especially her eyes, which seemed to be covered with a layer of light. It made her look like a devil in the night, dangerous and mysterious. "Hello."
"Something happened to Rao Rong." Hoshino swiped the screen. "Everyone in the esports industry is saying that there's something fishy about your match."
"Fishy?" Bo Jiu arched a brow.
"Mmh." Hoshino replied, "Someone said that Rao Rong didn't go all out in the match and lost intentionally because someone placed a bet on the match. If Supreme Alliance won, the other party would earn a lot. That isn't all, the crime squad has taken Rao Rong away, claiming that there is evidence pointing towards Rao Rong being the mastermind behind the Maiden's Sacrifice."
"The organization wants to push Rao Rong out to divert everyone's attention." Bo Jiu's gaze deepened. "The son of a hero shouldn't be treated this way. Rao Rong worked harder than anyone else in that match. If it wasn't for him, the other party would have lost badly."
Hoshino broke into a warm smile. "Shall we take action?"
"Mmh." Bo Jiu glanced at the sky. "Let's meet outside the police station."
"It seems like you've already thought of a way to slap them in the face." Hoshino hooked the keys on the table. "I'll prepare the costumes and props, which one do you need?"
Bo Jiu took a moment. "A wooden guitar, a white t-shirt, a black trench coat, a mask, hair dye and a motorcycle, something cool."
"What are you going to do?" Hoshino glanced down at the information in his hands. "You're going to use a guitar?"
Bo Jiu lifted her lips, a hint of devilishness in her eyes. "Since I'm returning, I need the audience to prove it. If not, I won't be able to answer to their efforts in impersonating me."
"Z, you're breaking the rules again." Hoshino's eyes lit up brightly, as though he had been in a daze for a long time. "I understand, I'll see you in a bit."
"See you in a bit." Bo Jiu hung up and turned towards Movie Queen An, who was watching her. She felt slightly embarrassed. She wanted to see the Almighty again but time was tight and he might not want to see her. Bo Jiu knew that the Almighty was still angry and it would be best if she could stay. But compared to that, she had more important matters to attend to. "Auntie An, I have something urgent to attend to, I have to leave."
Movie Queen An could tell from Bo Jiu's expression that the youngster had something urgent to attend to. At her age, she was able to see the bigger picture. "Alright, you can go ahead. It's time to make my cold son anxious. Otherwise, he will never understand that sincerity is the most important thing in a relationship."
"Brother Mo is great. It's my fault, I wasn't sincere enough." Movie Queen An watched the youngster's serious expression and couldn't help breaking into a smile. Who would take the blame? Her cold son must have accumulated good fortune in his previous life to have met such a sensible child like Jiu.
Movie Queen An glanced at the youngster's serious face and couldn't help but laugh. Who would take the blame? Her cold son must have accumulated good fortune in his previous life to have met such a sensible child like Jiu.
Movie Queen An chuckled. "Jiu, you'll be at a disadvantage. If he dares to bully you in the future, tell me. I'll be on your side." Movie Queen An chuckled. "Jiu, you're at a disadvantage. If he dares to bully you in the future, tell me. I'll be on your side."
Movie Queen An chuckled. "Jiu, you'll be at a disadvantage. If he dares to bully you in the future, tell me. I'll be on your side."
It had been the same when she had been young.
On the surface, she seemed to be at a disadvantage.
But in reality, every time something happened, he would be the one shielding her.
A family like Madam An's had high standards for upbringing.
Grandpa An was even more so, he had raised the Almighty like a prince. He played the piano well and knew how to play chess.
While she had been wandering outside like a clay figurine, the Almighty had come to meet the foreign guests in his little suit.
The An family's house was right next to theirs. Even though it was the same villa, the An family's house was clean.
Every time she climbed over the wall and knocked over a flower pot, Grandpa An would ask and the Almighty would say that he had accidentally knocked it over.
There had been one time when she had opened the An family's safe.
The Almighty had taken the blame for her. He had been punished by Grandpa An to stand for a long time.
If it had been the Almighty, he would never have made such a mistake. In his eyes, such mistakes were childish.
He had never been punished by Grandpa An.
Bo Jiu could still remember the way her little puppy had stood in the middle of the living room. He hadn't been impatient at all.
But he hadn't been happy at that time. When he had tugged her hand over, his expression had been cold. "Little Bo Jiu, are you an idiot? Bring the medicine box over. Bring me the first aid kit. If I find any blood on your hands on my sheets, I'll throw you out the window. “
Bo Jiu was used to such threats. She didn't think much of it. Besides, the Almighty had been the one who had bandaged her hand. He probably didn't mind it being dirty.
That day, she had hugged her little puppy and slept soundly.
Before he had fallen asleep, he had muttered in her ear, "You're so stupid. I guess the safe has to be changed."
From that day onwards, all the locks in the An family's house had been changed to electronic.
Back then, Bo Jiu had told herself that she would take good care of her little puppy.
That was probably the reason why Bo Jiu didn't want to receive that person's hateful gaze one day.
Movie Queen An watched as the youngster lowered her gaze. She reached out to push Bo Jiu, a faint smile on her face. She had the demeanor of a mature queen. "Alright, you can go now. I'll talk to Brother Mo."
Bo Jiu didn't have time to stay any longer. But it was good that she had left. The Almighty would probably come down for dinner after she left.
After leaving the military courtyard, Bo Jiu glanced at the time on her phone. Then she hopped into a taxi.
As the city lights lit up, the night came to everyone's side.
The nightlife in the city center started to get lively. There would always be many people near the commercial plaza. The most eye-catching advertising screens hung on the skyscrapers. Everything was a show of life.
In the study room on the second floor of the Qin family's house.
