Li Beibei was genuinely frightened.
But she couldn't help but feel a bit of wishful thinking. There were so many people in the Lou family, who would know which Miss Lou was?
It might just be a branch within a branch.
If that's the case, then what gives her the right to destroy the Li family?
Although the Li family is insignificant, they are not so easily destroyed, are they?
Therefore, it's impossible for her to kneel down and beg for forgiveness from this Miss Lou in public.
"Shirley, she actually wants me to kneel down to her, do you think I can tolerate that?"
“We’re best friends. Her insulting me is an insult to you. Help me teach her a lesson.”
Li Beibei decisively pushed her good younger sister "Li Xueli" to the front.
Xin Sui: "..."
Lou Jiali burst out laughing: "Lecturing me? What a big mouth you have! What makes you think you can lecture me?"
She looked them up and down, her eyes practically overflowing with disdain.
"Strength? Two weaklings at the first level of the Lesser Star Realm, do they even deserve it?"
"Or are you suggesting we bring the garbage you've submitted to the competition?"
Li Beibei: "Who are you calling trash?!"
"Let me tell you, I have the recipes from the Golden Age! The food I make is just as good as what you get at your Lou Family Hotel!"
Lou Jiali laughed mockingly, as if she had heard the biggest joke in the world.
"Do you know what kind of hotel our Lou family's hotel is? It's a spiritual hotel that has been passed down since before the apocalypse!"
"Once the items inside are used up, they can be automatically replenished the next day: Golden Chicken, Scallop Soup, Mountain Seaweed Dumplings, Jade Well Rice, Crispy Yellow Pepper, Cherry Omelette..."
"You've probably never even heard of these things, let alone eaten them."
"This frog in the well dares to speak so arrogantly in front of me! It's laughable!"
Li Beibei was speechless.
Because Lou Jiali was right, she had never heard of those things before in her life.
Just hearing the name makes it sound very high-end.
Xin Sui, who had been watching the show while petting the leopard, had no choice but to speak up.
"Unfortunately, I've not only heard of and eaten all of these things you mentioned, but I can also make them."
Li Beibei looked at Xin Sui in disbelief.
How come you can brag even better than me?
Xin Sui gave her a calm look.
Lou Jiali observed the exchange of glances between the two and became even more convinced that "Li Xueli" was exaggerating.
"Have you heard of it? Yes, I just told you. Have you eaten it? In your dream, maybe?"
"As for being able to make it? Then show me how you can make one!"
She suddenly smiled, as if she had thought of something funny.
"How about we make a bet?"
"If you can really make any of the dishes I mentioned, not all of them, but just one of them, I'll let you go, okay?"
"If I can't do it, I'll immediately message my brother and ask him to come to your Li family's house to practice his superpower."
"Just a heads up, my brother is a peak-level expert in the Great Star Realm, and his special ability is melting."
"Once he unleashes his superpower, your Li family will be reduced to a pile of mud in an instant!"
Li Beibei gasped.
Even a peak-level expert in the Great Star Realm possesses the ability to melt!
Even if you tied up all of Li's family members (dozens in total), it probably wouldn't be enough for him to kill them in one move.
At this moment, she felt utterly regretful.
She regretted that she couldn't control her temper and argued with Lou Jiali, and regretted that she didn't apologize to her in time.
Otherwise, the Li family wouldn't have suffered such a disaster.
Li Beibei was filled with despair.
She grew up with Lee Sulli and knew her very well.
She must have just said that to save face; how could she possibly actually know how to cook those dishes?
Dishes like Golden Chicken and Brocade Ribbon Soup have names that are quite confusing.
That's it, it's really over.
Is it too late for her to kowtow and beg for mercy from Lou Jiali now?
Lou Jiali smiled like a devil: "Too late."
Li Beibei then realized that she had blurted out what was on her mind.
Xin Sui gently stroked the leopard's fur and uttered two words: "No gambling."
Lou Jiali asked in surprise, "Didn't you understand what I said? If you don't gamble, then your Li family is finished."
Xin Sui retorted, "Do you know who I am?"
Lou Jiali frowned. Could it be that she wasn't just a junior member of a shady family, but had some powerful trump card up her sleeve?
Li Beibei's eyes lit up immediately. That's right, Li Xueli has gotten involved with the deputy city lord!
Who is the Deputy City Lord? He is the second most powerful expert in Bright City, second only to the City Lord!
The power of Bright City is no less than that of the Lou family. As long as the deputy city lord is willing to support Li Xueli, the Li family will be safe!
Xin Sui pointed to the towering white pagoda in the distance: "I live there."
Lou Jiali looked in the direction she was pointing and her expression changed.
She certainly knew what the White Pagoda was.
That's the residence of Xuan Tu, the city lord of Bright City.
She scoffed, "If you're going to lie, at least make it believable. Don't you know that Xuan Tu never allows outsiders to enter his tower, let alone live there?"
Xin Sui shrugged: "Believe it or not, but there's something I want to tell you: there are always people better than you, and there's always something beyond your understanding."
"A superhuman at the peak of the Great Star Realm may be incredibly powerful and unattainable for ordinary people."
"But to some people, they are nothing more than ants that can be crushed with a single finger."
A look of horror flashed in Lou Jiali's eyes.
Li Xueli was indirectly warning herself!
Could the being she mentioned, who could crush her brother with a single finger, be Xuan Tu?
Could what she said be true?
Lou Jiali was repeatedly warned before leaving home that she must not provoke Xuan Tu, or she would not even know how she died.
She never expected that a woman she randomly bumped into would actually be connected to Xuan Tu, and it seemed that their relationship was quite close.
What if what she said is true...
Lou Jiali's face paled; she dared not gamble on the possibility of something going wrong.
If they lose the bet, not only her and her brother, but the entire Lou family will likely be implicated.
But if she were to show weakness or back down because of a seemingly ambiguous remark by Li Xueli, wouldn't that be contradicting herself?
Where does that leave her dignity?
Lou Jiali took a deep breath, took out a Crystal Source Gun, and showed it off in her hand.
"The latest female crystal source gun produced by Fang Family Weapon Shop is small and exquisite, but has enormous destructive power."
"With it, even an ordinary person can fight against a mid-star realm ability user."
Li Beibei's eyes lit up as she stared at the Crystal Source Gun.
Lou Jiali placed the gun on the table in front of Xin Sui.
"It's the same bet we made earlier. I'll bet this with you."
“You win. Not only will I not harm your Li family, but this gun is yours too.”
“If you lose, then you two have to kowtow to me and apologize, how about that?”
If she could get those two annoying Li sisters to kneel before her, she would at least regain some face.
It's not too late for her to find out whether Li Xueli's words are true or false before deciding how to retaliate.
