Only by relying on real flesh and blood and vital energy can one maintain youth and beauty.
Young girls like Xu Jiaoyue could never understand her pain.
Thinking of this, a flash of jealousy quickly crossed Zhou Rui's eyes.
Of course, when explaining to Xu Jiaoyue, she didn't reveal her jealousy at all; she just said the reason in a rather sad and helpless tone.
"I have no choice, Xu. What woman in this world doesn't love beauty? Who doesn't want to stay young forever? When you get to my age, you'll know how sad it is to watch the years go by and get old and ugly little by little."
"So I can only rely on external forces and seek help from others."
"But don't worry, the little bit of essence I extracted won't have much of an impact on Chen Yu. She'll just need a couple more days of rest, and I'll also compensate her with a lot of things, so it's not really a loss for her."
On the first night she met Chen Yu, she realized that Chen Yu's aura was very similar to her own.
In this situation, Chen Yu's essence is easier for her to absorb.
That's why she was so gentle with Chen Yu, chatting with her non-stop, and even inviting her to get a massage together.
During the massage, she asked the masseur to light some incense, which was obviously not a proper incense.
Not only will it cause people to fall into a coma, but it will also allow Zhou Rui to take this opportunity to absorb Chen Yu's vital energy.
And so, comfortably, she absorbed some of Chen Yu's vital energy during the two hours Chen Yu was "asleep".
She thought that if things went smoothly, she would have many more opportunities to get close to Chen Yu in the future, and naturally she would be able to absorb his essence anytime and anywhere.
Unexpectedly, she was interrupted halfway through, and had to temporarily give up on Chen Yu as an option.
But later she went to see a few more girls, and although their energy could still blend with hers, it never felt as smooth.
In the end, she could only manage to get Chen Yu's address, intending to seize the opportunity to extract some more energy from Chen Yu and, incidentally, try to get closer to Chen Yu's grandmother.
She had previously learned how much Chen Yu valued her grandmother. If her grandmother supported her association with him, then even if others interfered, it wouldn't be a problem.
This is why Zhou Rui traveled all the way to Chen Yu's hometown; she missed Chen Yu's vital energy so much that she needed to absorb some more to maintain her beauty.
Xu Jiaoyue was greatly shocked after hearing this.
Although she had always heard that the world of the rich contained many things that ordinary people could not access or even imagine.
But I never expected that there would be someone like Zhou Rui who could maintain her youth and beauty in this way!
Even if she says something nice, like she absorbed some of Chen Yu's essence and that she only needs to rest for a while to recover, she'll be fine.
But if it's really as harmless as she says, why can't she just tell Chen Yu openly instead of resorting to such underhanded methods?
But Xu Jiaoyue was still a little curious, so she opened her eyes wide and looked carefully at Zhou Rui in front of her.
Although it's unclear whether Zhou Rui's poor condition was due to the exposure of her secret, she looked to be no more than thirty years old at the moment.
Thirty years old is still very young. Even under normal circumstances, there is no need to worry about aging.
In addition, the skincare methods of wealthy people are definitely much more effective than those of ordinary people.
But from what Zhou Rui just said, it seems she has been troubled by the issues of appearance and age for a long time.
Judging from this, Zhou Rui must be quite old.
But Xu Jiaoyue couldn't tell at all whether he was in his early thirties, forties, or forties.
Upon hearing this, Zhou Rui revealed a rather eerie smile, and then slowly spoke to Xu Jiaoyue.
"I'm actually a few months shy of turning sixty."
Sixty!!!
Xu Jiaoyue stared wide-eyed in disbelief.
She was actually mentally prepared and felt that she could accept whatever age Zhou Rui mentioned.
Anyway, at most he's only in his forties or fifties.
I never imagined she was sixty years old!
If Xu Jiaoyue hadn't known that Zhou Rui wouldn't lie to her at this point, she would never have believed anything.
But after thinking about it this way, she could understand it.
It is impossible to transform a 60-year-old woman into a 20 or 30-year-old woman using normal methods.
Even if you had surgery all over your body, it wouldn't look this natural.
No wonder Zhou Rui couldn't forget this evil method...
Seeing that Xu Jiaoyue was not speaking, Zhou Rui was about to ask her with a smile if there was anything else she needed to ask.
If not, could she have wiped the slate clean of this whole thing, or would Zhou Rui have been able to fulfill any request she made?
Before she could even speak, Xu Jiaoyue gave her a look of disgust, then turned to the young girl beside her who hadn't said a word the whole time and was occasionally playing on her phone.
"Master Lin, I'm all set."
Master Lin?!
Upon hearing this, Zhou Rui and Master Jia both looked incredulously at Lin Xi standing to the side.
Could she be the powerful figure behind Xu Jiaoyue?!
Seeing that Xu Jiaoyue had nothing more to ask, Lin Xi put down her phone.
"Okay, then I'll contact someone to handle it."
Originally, it was unclear what Zhou Rui and Master Jia had done and what their purpose was.
But now, under Xu Jiaoyue's questioning, Zhou Rui has revealed everything completely, so Lin Xi doesn't need to ask anything more. They can simply pack up the two of them and have the special department come and take them away.
Xu Jiaoyue didn't know what Lin Xi meant by "contacting someone to handle it," but she trusted Lin Xi and felt that Lin Xi must have her reasons for doing so.
So he nodded, indicating that he would follow Lin Xi's arrangements.
Zhou Rui and Master Jia on the other side finally came to their senses.
Zhou Rui hurriedly asked Xu Jiaoyue.
"Is she the expert who helped you get rid of the pen holder?"
Xu Jiaoyue nodded.
Master Jia, who was standing to the side, also spoke up.
"Was my backlash spell also cast by her?"
Xu Jiaoyue nodded again.
The two were thunderstruck upon receiving Xu Jiaoyue's affirmation.
So they wasted so much time here without realizing that the expert was right in front of them?
Also, what did Lin Xi mean by contacting someone to handle this?
Zhou Rui snapped out of her daze and looked at Lin Xi in a panic.
"Master, Master Lin, I know I was wrong. I'm willing to apologize. Just say the word and I'll agree to any request. Please forgive me this time!"
Master Jia didn't care about saving face.
After realizing that Lin Xi was the one who had cast the backlash spell on him, he became even more certain of how much Lin Xi's strength was hidden.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have gone so long without realizing that Lin Xi was a kindred spirit.
In this situation, Lin Xi's suggestion to "contact someone to deal with them" will definitely not end well for him!
