Lu Tingqian was satisfied. He reminded her several times to come over as soon as possible and then hung up the phone.
Xie Xihe glanced at the time. It was eleven seven, less than three hours left until the press conference at two o'clock.
She pondered for a moment, and just as she was about to get up and go to 511 to greet Zhong Yuxiu and the others, Wu Wei suddenly said with a smile, "Xihe, are you going to attend the new product launch of Xiguang Group?"
She pulled out an invitation from a book behind her and said with a smile, "I'm going too, why don't we go together?"
Xie Xihe glanced at the invitation in her hand and declined, "The press conference doesn't start until two o'clock. It's still early now. There won't be anyone there even if we go."
"It takes nearly an hour to get from school to Xiguang Group by subway. If I wait until I finish my meal, it will be past one o'clock when I get there. It's better for me to go with you now. We can have a meal near Xiguang Group and it will be the same."
He smiled at Xie Xihe and continued, "I'll have someone to talk to, so I won't be too bored on the road."
When she was about to speak, she looked up and met the girl's gaze that seemed to see through people's hearts. Wu Wei's heart tightened, and the smile on the corner of her mouth became a little forced: "If you feel it is inconvenient, forget it, I..."
"Then let's go." Xie Xihe interrupted her and said lightly.
At the same time, he looked at Yu Jianing, who was hesitant to speak, and asked, "Together?"
Yu Jianing's eyes lit up, and she felt a little embarrassed. She scratched her hair and asked, "Will it affect your work?"
When Xie Xihe was talking to Lu Tingqian before, she quickly put on headphones, so Yu Jianing only vaguely heard the first sentence, and now she thought she was attending the press conference as the spokesperson for Xiguang Group.
Although I really want to go, I am also worried that it will cause inconvenience to Xie Xihe.
Xie Xihe shook his head: "No."
Yu Jianing didn't hesitate, quickly packed up his things and put on his schoolbag.
It was not until the three of them had left for a long time that Wan Wennan, who had been buried in his textbook, raised his head.
She checked the time and took off her heavy black-framed glasses. She quickly moved her fingers on her head a few times to fix her messy black hair, revealing an exceptionally clean and beautiful face.
The cold white skin paired with obsidian eyes exudes an aura of "keep away from strangers".
The phone lit up at this moment. Wan Wennan pressed the answer button. A man's weak voice came out of the receiver. Wan Wennan let the other party finish speaking before replying indifferently, "I'm coming."
After he finished speaking, he put on a mask and walked out.

The junior class of Yuan Academy where Sheng Ming was enrolled also started today. Sheng Shijing had just finished the enrollment procedures with him before he saw the message Xie Xihe had sent him. It was just one sentence: [Lu Tingqian has something to do, I'll go over first.]
Sheng Shijing stared at his phone for a long while, then his gaze shifted to Sheng Ming and he said darkly, "Your Xixi left us."
Sheng Ming looked up at him and said seriously, "Jingjing, you are an adult now. Don't always cling to Xixi."
Ting said earnestly, "The book says that people need to maintain a certain distance between each other in order to keep things fresh."
Sheng Shijing: “…”
I knocked his little head with my backhand: "What a mess of books you are reading, I lost it."
What kind of sense of distance have you ever seen? It’s almost like negative distance.
Sheng Shijing picked up the little guy and held him in one hand. When he was about to take him to find his wife, he caught a glimpse of gray in his eyes.
Sheng Shijing paused and looked down.
Sheng Ming had let down the high bun on her head more than two months ago, and had her hair cut shorter. Her black hair was soft and thick, hanging on her scalp, making her look so well-behaved and quiet.
But at this moment, the originally jet-black short hair had a small white section at the roots. The area was not large, but it was particularly eye-catching, causing Sheng Shijing's brows to furrow tightly.
He raised his hand to brush Sheng Ming's hair, frowned, and asked, "What's going on?"
Sheng Ming hummed, and only reacted when Sheng Shijing plucked a strand of his hair and handed it to him. His little face froze instantly.
Sheng Shijing observed his expression and said in a deep voice, "Did you save someone secretly?"
Sheng Ming's mouth tightened: "No."
Sheng Shijing: "What's going on?"
Sheng Ming's lips were pursed into a straight line, and he didn't speak for a long time. Sheng Shijing didn't urge him, but just stood there holding him with one hand, waiting quietly.
for a long time.
The little guy's low voice finally rang out, saying: "I didn't save anyone. Xixi said that without her permission, we can't save people randomly."
He paused, his brows drooping even more, and continued, "It seems that some of the essence I left there was drained away."
Suddenly, he was startled. He looked towards Sheng Shijing and clutched his collar tightly, saying, "No, only Uncle Xiu knows that I left my essence there. Unless he has to use it, Uncle Xiu will never take my essence. Something must have happened!"
His pupils constricted, and even his lips trembled slightly: "Lingling, something happened to Uncle Xiu!"
Nothing happened to Hypnos.
The person who got into trouble was another person, Geng Chen.
Ancient God Realm.
In the quiet and empty palace, a woman in red tights pushed open the window in front of her, slid into the palace, and immediately walked towards one of the rooms as if she knew the place well.
The door opened silently, and a man in a white shirt appeared at the door. His eyes fell on the woman not far away, and his brows slightly frowned: "Yixing?"
Something immediately came to mind: "Something happened to Gengchen?"
The woman in red, Yixing, looked serious and nodded, "Yes."
She clenched her fists tightly to suppress her anxiety and said, "He went to visit Gengchen last night. I wasn't there at the time, so I don't know what happened, but Gengchen's breath has weakened today."
"Although it's only slightly subtle, I'm certain he's made some moves." Yixing took a deep breath and looked Hypnos straight in the eye. "He can't wait any longer."
Xupnos' heart sank as well.
But his expression remained unchanged and he asked her, "What do you want to do?"
Yixing directly stated his plan: "I want to take him away."
"Because Gengchen was unconscious, the Ancient God Order fell into his hands. Half of the Ancient God Guards have been taken into his possession and completely subdued."
"If something happens to Gengchen, relying on just you and me, we won't be able to save the remaining half. Then we really won't have the capital to compete with him."
"The only solution now is to leave first and wait for the future..."
Yixing stopped talking here and looked at Hypnos intently.
Hypnos only considered the issue for a moment before looking up and saying, "Okay."
The doubt in my heart that had been hanging in the air settled down and I breathed a sigh of relief.
