Bai Ze was terrified by Chu Nian's sudden appearance, his heart nearly leaping out of his chest. When Lou Qianzong yelled at him, he retorted irritably, "If you think my barrier isn't working, then set one up yourself!"
Lou Qianzong indeed waved his hand and set up a barrier: Hmm, not bad, my magic power has indeed been restored. It even seems a little stronger than before!
Although he felt that he was a bit stronger, he realized that Bai Ze's barrier was completely useless against Chu Nian, so he raised his hand and set up a second barrier.
There's a saying, "Three men make a drama!" That's quite true. Feeling utterly helpless, Chu Nian waved his hand, setting up a soundproof barrier for himself: Now his ears could finally have some peace and quiet.
Sometimes, it's really hard to understand some people's thoughts. Wang Xinrui knew that Lan Nian had returned and that Lan Nian had taken all her important things. She said she would return the things, but she didn't show up for several days in a row.
Fortunately, Chu Nian found Wang Xinrui very strange, so he left a mental imprint on her so that he could monitor her at any time. As a result, he discovered that she had been preparing for several days before setting sail.
Chu Nian realized that Wang Xinrui was trying to find the starting point of the overlapping spacetime, and then find the Devouring Madman Lan Nian. From the memories she obtained from the Devouring Madman Lan Nian, Wang Xinrui had successfully jumped over several overlapping spacetimes in a whirlpool in the outer sea, and directly arrived at the location of the Devouring Madman Lan Nian.
However, now that the spacetime overlap has been repaired, Wang Xinrui can only find Lan Nian from the divine realm again if she knows spacetime magic and breaks through the spacetime barrier.
She didn't have the ability, so she wandered around there for a long time, and even took out a small whistle that Lan Nian had cast a spell on and blew it for a long time. As a result, she didn't attract Lan Nian, but instead attracted a bunch of whales, which almost capsized the cruise ship that she had finally borrowed from a wealthy friend.
Chu Nian almost burst out laughing when she saw this.
Wang Xinrui brought enough food and water, but she didn't dare to linger at sea for too long. Although she had indeed obtained a elixir that could preserve her youth from Lan Nian and learned some minor spells, she had not truly embarked on the path of cultivation and didn't possess much combat power.
After searching for a long time without finding Lan Nian, and being surrounded by a group of large fish for most of the day, Wang Xinrui was terrified. Once the whales had receded, she quickly set sail back on the cruise ship.
Through observation over the past few days, Chu Nian discovered that Wang Xinrui is currently working for a large company. The company's boss is named Huo Qinghan, and he also possesses an invisible aura similar to that of Wang Xinrui.
Chu Nian therefore guessed that he was the male lead.
Wang Xinrui is now his secretary. In fact, she had seen Huo Qinghan before in the original owner's memories. In Wang Xinrui's words, Huo Qinghan was a cold and hard workaholic who lived like a robot all day long.
That cruise ship seemed to belong to the Huo family. Wang Xinrui somehow managed to curry favor with Huo Qingyan, the Huo family's youngest princess, and borrowed the cruise ship from her. However, Huo Qinghan was unaware of this. Wang Xinrui sailed the cruise ship for a few days before returning and learning that Huo Qinghan had once wanted to use it.
Huo Qinghan hadn't taken the fact that his younger sister had lent out the cruise ship seriously. Later, he rented another cruise ship, but Wang Xinrui took it to heart and apologized to Huo Qinghan.
Wang Xinrui was originally his secretary, and the two saw each other all the time. Huo Qinghan initially didn't pay much attention to her, after all, he had more than one secretary, and Wang Xinrui was just a small figure in his huge secretariat. But after this incident, he began to pay attention to Wang Xinrui.
It's really because of his princess complex; there are very few people who can tolerate her and become good friends with her. He was genuinely surprised to learn that Huo Qingyan had actually lent the cruise ship to this little secretary.
As the two spent more time together, Huo Qinghan, with Huo Qingyan's divine assistance, quickly developed feelings for Wang Xinrui.
Chu Nian watched Wang Xinrui secretly, as if she were watching a play.
Although this spacetime had overlapped with other spacetimes before, and the area was larger and the sound lasted longer than the one Lin Jingting had encountered, the area seemed to be limited to the neighborhood where Lan Nian's apartment was located.
The villa area where the Huo family and their families lived was far away from here and was not affected.
Therefore, the original owner's incident was likely similar to that of the previous world, occurring before the plot even began, and should be considered Wang Xinrui's initial accumulation of experience.
After the original owner died, all of her family and friends also perished. Cheng Lei knew that Wang Xinrui was connected to that Devouring Maniac, so he naturally didn't dare to compete with her for anything. All of the original owner's money probably ended up in Wang Xinrui's hands.
Now, apart from Chu Nian still living in this house, all of the original owner's assets are probably under Wang Xinrui's name. Chu Nian felt that if she waited any longer, this woman was unlikely to take the initiative to return the money and property certificates, so she decided to take the initiative and go to collect the debt herself.
So when Wang Xinrui got home from get off work that day, because she had become familiar with the Huo siblings, she warmly invited them to her home so she could cook dinner for her good friends herself.
So when she got home, she was carrying big bags and small bags, and her two tails also helped carry a bunch of groceries.
As soon as Wang Xinrui opened the door and entered the house, she saw Chu Nian lounging on the living room sofa, looking relaxed and somewhat lazy. Startled, her heart skipped a beat, and she dropped everything she was holding to the ground.
Chu Nian chuckled and said, "Wang Xinrui, why can't you hold onto your things when you see me?"
All three of them sensed her coldness towards Wang Xinrui. Huo Qingyan immediately became dissatisfied and pointed at her, questioning, "Who are you?"
Chu Nian said, "I'm Wang Xinrui's former best friend. What, has she never mentioned me to you?" After saying that, she glanced at Wang Xinrui with a cold smile in her eyes.
Wang Xinrui had composed herself and quickly said, "Niannian, why didn't you call me before you came?"
Chu Nian: "I'm afraid you'll run away."
Wang Xinrui's lips twitched, and she was speechless, but she quickly forced a smile and said, "Niannian, look at you, what are you saying? Why am I running away?" Perhaps afraid that Chu Nian would mention the matter of her property being swallowed up, she quickly added, "Since you're here, why don't we have dinner here? I plan to cook a few dishes myself tonight."
Chu Nian chuckled softly and said, "No, I'm afraid you'll poison me. Where's my money? Where's the property certificate? Where are those valuable jewelry pieces? Give them back to me right now, I'm leaving."
Wang Xinrui hurriedly said, "Please wait a moment, I'll go get it for you right away." Then she gestured to the Huo siblings, "Please have a seat!"
