Chapter 96 A Chill on My Back

Jiang Jiu sat numbly on the mat. Although she had met several handsome men who claimed to be her lover in the previous life before, the appearance of two more men was still very shocking.

Now she just wanted to know how many men she had provoked in her previous life, so that they would chase her until now and refuse to let go.

but.....

It’s hard to say whether she was a bad woman in her previous life. If she was, then wouldn’t these people come here for revenge?

If there is a yandere type...

Thinking of this, Jiang Jiu felt a chill on his back, all the way up to the top of his head.

"Excuse me, there are too many men looking for me, and I can't take care of them now. What should I do? Waiting online, it's urgent."

"Ahem, I just don't know you yet."

After a little consideration, Jiang Jiu tried to express in a tactful tone the problem she was facing and wanted the two elder brothers to give her some time, although she had also said this to others two days ago.

Now I am only desperate about one thing.

All the men she had offended in her previous life seemed to be abnormal. Uh... She meant that their abilities far exceeded those of a modern person like her, and some were from different species. Even if she wanted to escape, there was no way. She would probably be found easily, so Jiang Jiu simply gave up the option of running away.

"Yeah, I know."

Long Xuan's sitting posture was not so regular, with one arm resting on his leg. His nonchalant look made Fo Jiang frown slightly.

Seeing his indifferent expression, Jiang Jiu was speechless and choked with emotion. Now she really didn't know what to do.

"I mean, I can't accept you right now. Besides...before you, there were already three men waiting for me at home, claiming to be my lovers."

Jiang Jiu simply gave up and said in a tearful tone.

Who would have thought that the reactions of the two people opposite were ridiculously calm. They just looked at each other, and then Long Xuan could be heard muttering with disgust on his face.

"I didn't expect them to be one step ahead."

After the words fell, Jiang Jiu pulled the corners of his mouth numbly.

Although it was expected, did they really know each other?

Could it be true that what they said about her being the empress was true... She thought they were just teasing her.

Otherwise, she couldn't imagine what kind of situation would allow her to not be beaten to death as a scumbag even though she provoked so many men, and even these men knew each other.

"It has nothing to do with them. I just... haven't seen you for a long time."

Fo Jiang looked at Jiang Jiu's face full of disbelief, lowered his eyes slightly, and a hint of fragility appeared on his cold and otherworldly face, like a butterfly with broken wings in summer, or a saint who was pulled into the mortal world. His tone was also filled with imperceptible loneliness.

Especially the pauses in his voice, which were really heartbreaking to hear.

When Long Xuan heard Fo Jiang say this, he almost exploded on the spot. He hated green tea the most in his life. He hated Yun Shuili in the past, but he didn't expect that the stinky monk would do the same thing now.

“You you you!”

Jiang Jiu ignored Long Xuan's interjections. Looking at Fo Jiang's expression, she felt guilty for a moment, as if everything was her fault. She couldn't help but be tempted by her beauty and blurted out words of comfort.

"That's not the case. I don't hate you."

As soon as Jiang Jiu finished speaking, Long Xuan widened his eyes, looked at the harmonious atmosphere between the two, and then looked at himself who was out of place, and his defense was broken on the spot.

"No, no! Don't trust this monk! He has a bad heart!"

As Long Xuan spoke, he could still see the corners of Fo Jiang's mouth slightly raised, but he lowered his head, so Jiang Jiu couldn't see it, and he could just see it clearly.

He tried his best to discredit Fo Jiang's behavior, but not only did he not gain Jiang Jiu's trust, he was also given a neutral look by Jiang Jiu, and then the look returned to Fo Jiang.

"Really?"

Fo Jiang raised his head. The broken and cold Son of Buddhism was born with a very special temperament. When he deliberately created this atmosphere, the effect was particularly obvious. Jiang Jiu almost softened his heart towards him uncontrollably, and made the promise without thinking.

"Really, really, I really don't hate you."

But Jiang Jiu didn't lie. Compared with the others whose origins were unknown, Fo Jiang seemed to be the most normal.

Well...at least it's a person.

Long Xuan was speechless. Fo Jiang's plan succeeded, and Jiang Jiu was still immersed in regret after sobering up. No one spoke for a while.

The air fell into an eerie silence as the three of them just sat in the room. Jiang Jiu didn't know what to say. She couldn't possibly let her take these two home as her rental house really couldn't hold all of them.

After a while, Jiang Jiu finally spoke up, breaking the silence.

"Well, it's getting dark now. Can I go home first?"

she asked cautiously.

After all, she is a girl, and she doesn't feel safe being with two males who are not sure whether they are human or not.

"I send you."

Long Xuan immediately volunteered.

"No, no, no, I can go back by myself!"

Jiang Jiu quickly refused.

"Can."

Fo Jiang nodded. Unlike Long Xuan, he emitted a soft white light. In an instant, a string of Buddhist beads was hung on Jiang Jiu's wrist. It was like magic. Jiang Jiu didn't even react to what had just happened.

"This will keep you safe, go back."

He did not try to follow or stop him, but gave Jiang Jiu a sense of security in his own way.

For some unknown reason, Jiang Jiu touched the Buddhist beads that felt very nice. Instead of refusing the gift from the Buddha General, he nodded and prepared to leave, leaving Long Xuan dumbfounded, feeling that he had been fooled.

"You monk!!!"

Even after Jiang Jiu walked away, he could still hear the anger coming from the temple, with a faint and powerful wave that even shook the ground.

Jiang Jiu, who was walking outside the temple, was stunned. He turned to look in the direction of the vibration and felt something was strange.

"Could it be an earthquake?"

Although Jiang Jiu knew that Fo Jiang and Long Xuan had special abilities, she had never thought that they could generate such powerful energy when fighting. In the end, she could only attribute it to her bad luck today, as she even encountered an earthquake. She quickened her pace and quickly reached the mainland.

The power of the Buddhist beads invisibly enveloped her, protecting her safety.

It's like a thin protective shield, but most people can't see it.

The sky gradually darkened and Jiang Jiu quickened his pace. The bus stop was still standing there. This was the last bus and if he missed it, he would have to take a taxi home, but taxis were too expensive. Jiang Jiu didn't want to make his already poor life worse, so it was more cost-effective to wait for the bus.

At that time, there were rustling sounds coming from the woods in the distance.
