Those who had heard of Chen Xu's reputation were now extremely worried about Jiang Li.
They were afraid that Jiang Li wouldn't be able to beat them in the ring.
But since they were Jiang Li's supporters, even though they were afraid Jiang Li couldn't compare, they would never allow those haters to bully Jiang Li.
Master Chen Xu is indeed impressive, but our esteemed Jiang didn't claim to be better than him, did he?
[Exactly, you guys only think about smearing our Boss Jiang, but she didn't compare herself to others, so what are some people so arrogant about?]
[Heh, Jiang Li's lackeys are feeling guilty now, aren't they? I knew it...]
[What's there to be ashamed of? Our Jiang Li is only eighteen! How old is Master Chen Xu? Comparing a middle-aged man to a young girl who has just come of age, you're really something!]
[Ha, say what you will, Jiang Li is definitely going to lose face big time this time!]
[...]
Some people were waiting to see Jiang Li embarrass herself in front of Chen Xu, hoping for a good show.
Then……
Um……
It might not be what they expect.
The production crew gathered the guests together and began to introduce the place to everyone. They even told them about the history of the haunted house and some legends, the truth of which was unknown, deliberately creating a tense and dangerous atmosphere.
Jiang Li picked at her ear and couldn't help but yawn.
What a boring explanation; it made her sleepy.
As for the others, they all had solemn expressions on their faces.
Everyone has heard about the ghost stories here. The previous rumors were quite terrifying, and some online celebrities even went there to take photos and videos, which were then released online.
Before they came, they specifically gathered information about the place, and they watched quite a few videos.
It's said that several online celebrities went on the trip and went on mental breakdowns afterward.
So now, hearing the production team's eerie introduction, everyone felt uncertain and trembled with fear.
"Aren't you scared, little girl?" Chen Xu turned his head and saw Jiang Li standing next to him, who looked completely unconcerned. He asked gently.
This appearance...
Compared to his previous appearance with eyes that seemed to reach the sky, it could be said that...
They were like completely different people.
Oh ho...
He's a two-faced person.
Jiang Li looked at Chen Xu with an innocent expression and said, "Why be afraid? Even if you are afraid, it's something that happens at night, isn't it?"
Chen Xu was stunned by what he was told. "What?"
“It’s broad daylight now, the sun is getting brighter and brighter, and the yang energy is so strong, that demons and monsters wouldn’t dare to come out and cause trouble at this time, right?” Jiang Li said matter-of-factly. “If those things don’t dare to come out, why should I be afraid?”
This kind of program should be broadcast live at night.
During the daytime live stream, there's nothing to keep them entertained.
It's so boring.
Chen Xu was speechless at Jiang Li's words, and his face turned somewhat ugly.
But he held back, and for the sake of the camera, he said, "Young lady, even if those things only come out at night, we still need to be prepared in advance. Otherwise, what if we can't handle any unexpected situations?"
Jiang Li stared intently at Chen Xu for a few moments, then suddenly laughed, "Isn't this the place where you are, Master? With you here, what are we afraid of?"
Isn't it just pretense?
Who doesn't know how?
Isn't this just a publicity stunt?
Then she'll start by praising him!
Upon hearing this, Chen Xu immediately straightened his back, but still kept lecturing Jiang Li, "Why would a young girl like you participate in this kind of program? What if something really happens? How would your family accept it?"
Jiang Li fiddled with her fingers and said slowly, "It's okay, my family won't care about these things. They actually hope I'll participate in more recreational activities. They're just afraid that if I always play alone, I'll develop a psychological disorder."
That's really blunt.
The others who heard it couldn't help but burst out laughing.
Then they all looked at Jiang Chengying beside them.
Seeing the looks everyone was giving him, Jiang Chengying said awkwardly, "Don't look at me, Jiang Li wasn't talking about us."
At this moment, he wished Jiang Li was referring to their blood relatives.
But he knew it wasn't true.
Moreover, in Jiang Li's mind, the Jiang family members were nothing more than strangers to her, even though they were related by blood.
Especially now...
She had absolutely no desire to have anything to do with the Jiang family.
Seeing Jiang Chengying's dejected expression, everyone felt an indescribable sympathy.
Only the Jiang family would be so foolish as to not know how to cherish a girl like that.
If such a cute little one suddenly came to their home, they would definitely cherish and pamper her.
Jiang Chengying was extremely frustrated, while Chu Yunhan was overjoyed.
This is their beloved junior sister.
They are the family in my junior sister's heart.
As for certain people...
Oh!
They don't deserve it!
only……
Who exactly is this Chen Xu?
He'd never even heard of him!
Where does this confidence to act so arrogantly come from?
Does he really think he's someone important?!
Seeing Jiang Li's fearless and naive demeanor, Chen Xu was displeased, but his face remained amiable. "However, considering your young age, you probably don't know much. Take these talismans first. If you encounter any danger later, you can use them to resist it, at least enough to hold out until I come to rescue you!"
Jiang Li did not refuse; she accepted the talisman that Chen Xu handed to her.
Jiang Li glanced at the talisman in her hand casually, then couldn't help but frown.
Do people outside draw talismans so casually?
This thing...
The drawing is riddled with errors and is not a complete symbol at all.
Jiang Li initially thought it might be a mistake, but she never expected...
Of all these talismans, not a single one was drawn correctly.
“Master…” Jiang Li looked at Chen Xu with a solemn expression, “This talisman was drawn by one of your disciples? Isn’t this disciple being too lazy? This level of skill, hasn’t he even entered the first stage?”
Even beginners can't draw this monstrosity.
Although her sixth senior brother's skill level wasn't very high, the talismans he drew weren't very effective either.
but……
At least it's a complete rune.
As for this one in my hand...
Oh!
Upon hearing Jiang Li's words, Chen Xu's expression changed instantly. He suppressed his displeasure and forced a smile, "This is a talisman I drew myself. It's not something a beginner disciple can compare to. It's normal that you're too young to understand talismans."
What an ignorant fool!
The talismans he draws are priceless.
This little brat actually dares to say such shameless things!
If they encounter danger later, he will definitely make her pay!
Make her pay the price for her blindness!
"Oh." Jiang Li nodded, indicating that Chen Xu was right. "My eyes are not working well, and I can't understand these strange symbols. Please don't be offended, Master."
"Of course I won't stoop to the level of a young girl like you," Chen Xu said, his expression softening further. "Keep this talisman safe and don't lose it."
Jiang Li: "..."
That's a bit difficult for her, since she never carries trash in her hands.
