Early morning, small building restaurant.
There was an awkward atmosphere in the air.
Li Wei wanted to bury her entire face in the bowl of porridge in front of her. She swung the spoon in her hand rapidly and swallowed like a machine.
Help! I want to die where I am, and have a cremation and funeral all in one place. Is that possible?
[This is fucked! This Gu guy and I are absolutely incompatible, we're a perfect match! I can't live like this anymore!]
Gu Jinzhi, who was standing opposite her, wasn't much stronger either.
His back was as straight as a steel bar, and his sitting posture was extremely unnatural. The muscles on his infuriatingly handsome face twitched from time to time, and his eyes were even more erratic, and he was determined not to look Li Wei or Liang Qiushi in the eye.
Liang Qiushi, who was sitting at the main seat, was still as graceful as ever, eating his meal slowly and leisurely with an elegant and proper posture.
However, if you look closely, her slightly furrowed brows still reveal some of her worries.
Baji, baji, baji!
Li Wei devoured the food in front of her at the same speed as she had snatched food from her coworkers in her previous life.
At the end, there were still two shrimp dumplings stuffed in his mouth.
"Hmm...gulp...oh, Aunt Liang, I'm done!" She stood up with such force that the chair legs scraped harshly on the floor. "I'm leaving first!"
Before he could finish his words, he had already taken off and rushed out of the restaurant as if fleeing.
As for the matter of going to the abyss rift, Li Wei did not say anything. Anyway, Liang Qiushi had promised, and Gu Yan would definitely report her whereabouts.
She just wants to hide as soon as possible...
In the underground garage, Gu Yan was already waiting by the car.
Seeing Li Wei running over, she quickly handed over a paper bag: "Young Madam, this is what you wanted."
Inside the bag were sunglasses and a mask. Li Wei had called her half an hour ago to ask her to prepare them.
After yesterday's incident fermented, she is now considered a semi-public figure, so she still has to maintain basic disguise.
The two of them got into the car quickly. Li Wei leaned back in her chair and muttered a few words in a sullen voice: "Elbow, go to the World Trade Center!"
"Okay, Madam!" Gu Yan responded, and the car drove out of the basement smoothly and merged into the early morning traffic in the imperial capital.
Li Wei breathed a sigh of relief, feeling that she was finally alive.
She couldn't stay in Gu Yuan for even a second! This time, if she didn't reach the second level, she wouldn't come back even if she was beaten to death!
The place she was going to was officially designated C3-01-045.
C represents a low-level rift, and 3 represents that the highest-level abyss monster inside is level three.
01 is the area code of the imperial capital, and 045 is the fissure number.
Li Wei called it the International Trade Center because it was originally a large shopping mall. After the cracks appeared, the entire building and the surrounding blocks were taken over by the authorities.
Now, the Martial Arts Alliance has transformed the mall into a commercial area exclusively for martial artists, selling weapons and equipment, training resources, and various intelligence information.
Warriors can trade and rest upstairs, and then go directly downstairs to fight in the rift, which is very convenient.
After coming out of Gu Jinzhi's bedroom last night, Li Wei was busy. She checked the information all night, picked and chose, and finally decided on this place.
......
In the restaurant, the atmosphere seemed even more depressing after Li Wei escaped.
Liang Qiushi wiped the corner of his mouth gently with a napkin and put down the bowl of soup in his hand.
She looked at her still silent son, and her voice carried an inexplicable meaning: "Jinzhi, last night..."
Gu Jinzhi's body suddenly tensed up, and his cheeks turned red.
His voice was a little dry, and he sounded quite embarrassed: "Mom, it's not what you think."
After a pause, he added: "Jiang Xiao... Jiang Xue, she was just helping me apply the medicine."
Liang Qiushi looked at him quietly, and after a moment, he slowly nodded.
She picked up the tea at hand and took a sip. The misty vapor just blocked the complex thoughts that flashed through her eyes.
The marriage she led was a drama from beginning to end. I just hope that these two children will not really get caught up in it.
-----------------
At the same time, in the Zhang family's villa, study.
Zhang Yansheng frowned and stared at the morning news on TV. The host was reporting the news about "Jiang Xue" in an eloquent manner.
Uncle An stood aside with his hands hanging down, reporting in a low voice: "Master, the Imperial Capital branch just received news that Jiang Xue is not a second-level cultivator, but a first-level cultivator."
"First level?" Zhang Yansheng repeated, his expression changing.
He was silent for a long time before he turned his gaze to Zhang Pengcheng beside him: "How confident are you in facing her now?"
Zhang Pengcheng's face looked quite ugly.
A few days ago, he was still mocking Gu Jinzhi as a "mayfly", but then his wife made such a big fuss, which gave him a slap in the face.
"Hmph!" Zhang Pengcheng stiffened his neck and said, "She's just relying on the speed of the Cold Pond's sinking wall! My ranking is even higher than hers!"
"Rankings?" Zhang Yansheng curled his lips. "Do you really believe the rankings on Tianji.com? They're just a bunch of entertainment people. They know nothing about martial arts!"
Zhang Pengcheng choked, his face darkened, and his knuckles turned white from being pinched.
Zhang Yansheng didn't look at him again. He stood up and walked back and forth in the study with a serious expression.
"Jiang Xue's strength is a bit beyond the standard, the plan needs to be changed!"
"The plan has changed again?" Zhang Pengcheng was speechless. Is this the second time?
"Of course it has to change." Zhang Yansheng sat back in his chair, looking as if it was a matter of course. "What if it doesn't change? Can you beat them? If you can beat one person, how can you beat a couple working together?"
