Chapter 57 If we don't talk about money, can we talk about feelings?



The baby woke up suddenly in pain and started crying loudly.

Chi Shuang frowned at the crying, her vertical pupils fixed on the baby's eyes, and she made a shushing gesture at him.

"Sweet baby, don't cry, smile instead."

The baby's crying stopped abruptly, its eyes still brimming with tears, but its lips parted into a wide grin as it began to giggle.

Her laughter was sweet and melodious.

Chi Shuang touched his brow with satisfaction, like a loving mother.

However, the next second she bit off one of the baby's feet, like eating grass or strawberry cake.

The baby smiled, its eyes vacant, watching helplessly as it was eaten.

When Ferro came in, there was still a chubby little finger stuck to the corner of Red Frost's mouth.

She put her fingers in her mouth.

A long, thin, bright red tongue darted out and circled around the mouth, not wasting a single drop of blood.

Upon witnessing this scene, Ferro's eyes rippled violently, like the surface of a broken lake.

A struggle welled up deep in his eyes.

It was as if a bound and imprisoned soul was eager to break free.

However, the moment their eyes met, all their struggles subsided into calm.

The intense emotions subsided.

Crimson Frost swam over, its eerie, dark green vertical pupils staring at him.

Its crimson tail gleamed like a ruby, beautiful yet malevolent.

Her hand caressed Ferro's chest, and she pushed him all the way to the soft, large bed.

She gave him a seductive smile and clung to him.

As the large bed shook violently, a small mermaid enveloped in colorful bubbles peeked out from behind a tree.

She has long, smooth, deep blue hair, like the ocean, cascading in waves over her shoulders.

It gleams with a bright, fiery blue luster.

Her large, crystal-clear eyes glanced at the large bed, a look of disgust and fear flashing within them.

She carefully guided the colorful bubbles toward the door.

The moment she stepped out the door, she immediately sped up and drifted away without looking back.

Inside the room.

After a thoroughly enjoyable workout.

Chi Shuang lay lazily in Fero's arms, her alluring snake tail wrapped around his leg, her voice hoarse: "How's it going with the information I asked you to look up on Li Xueli?"

Ferro retrieved his belt from under the bed.

The belt was inlaid with an obsidian-like gem, which was actually a spatial artifact.

He took out a stack of documents and handed them to Chi Shuang.

Chi Shuang propped herself up and looked around, her snow-white skin being kissed by the air.

Not having the patience to read the details at the beginning, she flipped directly to the end.

"...Li Xueli quarreled with her third half-sister, Li Beibei, and ran out of the house. In the ruins of the city, she found a man who was seriously injured and unconscious. She took him back and locked him in the room."

"They then used various methods to try to tame him and make him their slave."

Upon seeing this, Chi Shuang was astonished.

If the man Li Xueli picked up was Xuan Tu, how has she survived until now?

Unfortunately, there are no further records about that man.

It was as if he appeared out of thin air and then disappeared just as suddenly.

That's quite in line with Xuan Tu's style of doing things.

Chi Shuang closed the documents, looked at Fero who had already dressed himself up and was now dressed in a refined and ascetic manner, and beckoned to him with her finger.

As he bent down, she wrapped her arms around his neck and gave him a long, passionate kiss.

"Go ahead, if you don't show up soon, things might get messed up in the competition up there."

Ferro left.

Red Frost swayed its snake tail and slid into the huge swimming pool for a comfortable bath.

"I wonder how that little fish is doing. It's been starving for so many days, surely it should give in to me by now?"

After taking a bath, Chi Shuang took some food and went to the ornate fish tank in the corner of the room.

The fish tank was empty; the little mermaid inside had vanished!

The pleasant smile on Chi Shuang's face vanished abruptly, and her expression turned cold.

"You actually dared to run away? I was originally planning to keep you as a pet because you're pretty."

"Since you're so disobedient, I'll just have to catch you and stew you."

Chi Shuang sent a message to Fei Luo: "The little mermaid has escaped, but she shouldn't have gone far. Immediately seal off and lock down the Drum Tower and bring her back."

Ferro replied with a "yes".

After being reported for selling trading cards, Xin Sui decided to stop, as he no longer wanted to risk such a crime.

Huang San'er handed over all the money he earned from the "last" two cards to her.

"Lord Ferro, he probably forgot to collect the money. It's fortunate that he forgot, otherwise the debt would have fallen on my shoulders."

Xin Sui thought to herself, "Fei Luo didn't forget; he was clearly deliberately protecting her so that this 'stolen money' would fall into her hands."

She counted out the 10% commission that Huang San was entitled to and handed it over.

"Take it."

Huang San'er said, "Well, I messed things up, how can I take your money again?"

But his hands were honest; he quickly accepted the money.

Who would complain about having too many crystal coins?

"Oh right, there's one more card." Huang San'er took out the last card.

He concluded by saying, "If you ever have any more profitable business opportunities in the future, just let me know, and I'll be there whenever you call."

Xin Sui didn't refuse, "No problem."

Businessmen like Huang San may be mercenary, but they do have a wide network of connections.

He's known to all sorts of people; you never know when you might need his help.

She doesn't know how long she'll be in this world, so she needs to find ways to build a solid foundation.

The Li family is one, Shui Duoduo is one, and Huang San is the same.

As soon as Xin Sui returned to the stall, Xiao Ming rushed over with a piece of grilled meat.
