Li Xin'er truthfully replied, "I heard those people mention it before in Tianxi Town, but I don't know anything else."
"I don't know much either; it's all what the bodyguards overheard from outside."
Leng Luo hung her head dejectedly, sighing mournfully.
"Sigh, it's no use saying anything. The old man won't let me go out as long as he wants, so I have no way to meet that she-devil."
As she spoke, she clenched her fist, her determination evident, and said:
"Once I can get out, I will definitely lead people to act on behalf of Heaven."
Li Xin'er thought her idea of acting on behalf of Heaven was rather childish, so she couldn't help but laugh and tease her.
"I never expected you to be a chivalrous hero."
"Of course! By the way, I've recently acquired a lot of good stuff. Come on, let me show you."
Suddenly, Leng Luo had an idea and changed the subject. He excitedly pulled Li Xin'er toward her residence.
As for the rest, they were forgotten.
Li Xin'er had visited Leng Luo's residence before and even stayed there for one night. Last time, she saw many handsome men and beautiful women living there, but this time she didn't see a single one.
The doors of those small buildings were tightly closed. Li Xin'er had used her spiritual power to investigate, and there was no one inside.
As they entered the small building where Leng Luo lived, Li Xin'er casually asked, "Where are your concubines?"
Leng Luo answered while pouring water for Li Xin'er from the thermos.
“They go out to find supplies every few days. They just went out yesterday and usually don’t come back for two or three days. I can’t afford to keep a bunch of idle people around.”
Then she started complaining again.
"I just received a call this morning saying that someone on their team had been captured by that female demon. We haven't been able to contact them since, and we don't know how they are now."
“My dad said they were bad friends, and it was already good enough that he agreed to let them stay at home, so why would he send someone to look for them?”
Li Xin'er lowered her eyelashes and looked at the cup on the table. She felt that Leng Luo's father was right, so she didn't respond.
She reached out and picked up the white embossed ceramic cup from the table, placing her other hand over the cup to feel the scalding heat inside.
“It’s going to snow heavily, so you’d better not go out recently. Also, tell your dad to prepare some winter supplies in advance.”
She couldn't be sure of the exact time it would snow, but it would be within the next few days. According to the book, the snow would fall quickly and heavily, and the snow would be enough to bury a person.
If Leng Luozhen were to run into him outside, it would be a troublesome matter.
"Is it going to snow?!"
Leng Luo had just sat down next to Li Xin'er when she heard her words and exclaimed in surprise.
Li Xin'er glanced at the bright sunshine outside through the living room window and nodded, "I'm not lying."
Hearing her earnest tone, Leng Luo no longer doubted her and sighed again:
"My God, I've lived in S City for so long and I've never seen it snow more than a few times. At most, it's just a few scattered snowflakes, which is almost like rain in the end."
As she spoke, she seemed somewhat agitated.
"How heavy is the snow you're talking about? Enough to build a snowman?"
Li Xin'er couldn't help but smile. She really was a rich young lady, always giving off an air of otherworldly elegance.
When people at the base talked about the heavy snow, everyone looked anxious and grim. But when Leng Luo talked about it, it was a completely different story.
"Yes, I can. Not only can I build a snowman, but I can even cover you up like a snowman."
"That's a bit of an exaggeration."
Leng Luo's previous excited expression subsided somewhat, and she also showed some concern.
Li Xin'er let out a soft breath and blew on the surface of the hot water in the cup, causing ripples to spread across the surface.
"So, tell your dad to prepare in advance."
"Yes, I will. You should also be careful."
Although she was angry with the old man, she wouldn't be confused about such an important matter.
Leng Luo suddenly thought of the RV where Li Xin'er was staying, and said with some worry:
"Xin'er, why don't you come stay at my place for a while? Bring all your people over. I have plenty of things, and there are definitely enough rooms. No matter how nice your RV is, it won't be able to withstand the cold in such heavy snow!"
Li Xin'er shook her head. "No need. I've already found a place to stay, not far from your villa. I just finished looking at it and came here on the way."
Leng Luo looked at her resentfully, "Oh, so it was just a coincidence. I was wondering why you walked here alone today."
Seeing her like this, Li Xin'er smiled and said, "Now that we live closer, you can come and play with me anytime."
"That's for sure, I'll definitely go every day. So when are you moving in?"
Knowing that Carl and his men were not around, and that Li Xin'er didn't have many people with her, Leng Luo offered, "I'll send someone to help."
Li Xin'er lowered her eyelashes slightly, calculated the time, and said:
"No need to trouble yourself, I don't have much to move. Carl and the others will be back soon, I'll come over when they arrive."
Upon hearing that Carl and the others were coming back, Leng Luo didn't say anything more. With them around, there was indeed no need for her people.
The two chatted for a while longer, and when Li Xin'er saw that it was almost time, she got up to say goodbye.
Leng Luo wanted her to stay for dinner, so she hurriedly got up and said, "You're already here, how can you leave without eating?"
Li Xin'er waved her hand and walked straight out, saying, "Master Sun's cooking is still the best. I'm leaving."
Lenglou stomped her foot in feigned anger behind her, "You're deliberately trying to tempt me! That's too much!"
After saying that, he still eagerly chased after them.
"Hey, wait a minute! I'll give you a ride. I know you're in a hurry to get back and have something good to eat, so you don't have to rush!"
"You said you wanted to eat something delicious, so how can we not hurry up?"
Li Xin'er jokingly retorted, but despite her words, she still slowed down her pace.
Leng Luo escorted Li Xin'er to the gate, and despite his repeated attempts to persuade her, Li Xin'er still refused Leng Luo's offer to arrange a car to take her.
Driving is the main option, but it's easy to get blocked by zombies on the road, which is troublesome and time-consuming. It's much faster for her to go alone.
Seeing that she refused so readily, Leng Luo didn't press the matter further and went along with her wishes.
Li Xin'er quite enjoyed spending time with Leng Luo, perhaps because Leng Luo was straightforward and honest, making her feel at ease and comfortable, unlike the cautious and unrestrained behavior or the roundabout probing of others.
Or perhaps it's because Leng Luo was someone she met after transmigrating, and their relationship was somewhat like a case of "becoming friends after a fight." In Leng Luo's eyes, there was no trace of the original owner of this body.
Furthermore, the two get along quite well, just like ordinary good friends.
They joke around, tease each other, talk about their interests, chat about random things, and care about each other—these are all things Li Xin'er likes, which is why she was willing to accept this friend.
This friend didn't disappoint her; she trusted her quite a bit. No sooner had Li Xin'er left than Leng Luo rushed off to find her father.
Upon entering the study, Leng Zhian was sitting at his desk, holding a black fountain pen and writing something with his head down.
Hearing her enter, Leng Zhian didn't even lift his eyelids, and said in an unfriendly tone, without any tact:
"If you still want me to send people to find those gigolos, you can leave now!"
