Chapter 2076 Cross-Time Romance 19
Xiao Chen sat there with his hands in his pockets, looking smug.
They were just waiting for Si Jin to bow her head, kneel on the ground, and cry as she apologized to him.
After all, he had done this kind of crazy slapping of others' faces far too many times, and he always enjoyed it immensely.
Xiao Chen's lips curled up on one side, forming a checkmark-like smile. He had already carefully gone through the words he would use to humiliate Si Jin later, so that he could not only insult her but also appear to be of noble character.
But before Si Jin could speak, all the assistants around her stood up and greeted her in unison, "Hello, Mr. Zhou!"
Xiao Chen: ? ? ?
Not only that, the assistants also hurriedly moved chairs and added bowls and chopsticks.
The most outrageous thing was that an assistant ignored him and said directly, "I didn't know Mr. Jay was coming today. The food is not good. How about we go out to eat and we'll book a new table for you."
Xiao Chen: ...
He looked up and carefully observed his surroundings three times. Yes, this was the Heavenly King's Palace, and these were his brothers who had followed him through thick and thin.
Why... has your attitude changed so much all of a sudden?
It made Zhou Sijin seem like the master.
Xiao Chen couldn't understand, but he was clearly being ignored. As soon as Si Jin arrived, she quickly became the focus of the entire room, stealing all of Xiao Chen's attention.
He was like a clown who was ignored, and no one even followed up on his first sentence.
Xiao Chen's ears began to ring. After some time, he heard Si Jin bring up the subject and ask, "Are there any eerie places around here, like prisons?"
Si Jin thought that in this world, probably no one but him knew that the red-eyed Si Jin was the core fragment of his soul that had always protected his heart.
Once he obtains this piece, the other scattered fragments will naturally return to their original form. He won't have to endure the amnesia, nightmares, and endless battles with the Heavenly Lord in the smaller planes.
But this fragment of his soul was something he casually tore off and threw away when he left the Heavenly Prison. It carried many memories he didn't want to recall while he was in prison.
Therefore, he abandoned them decisively, leaving no room for sentimentality.
But he still knew very well the most suitable environment for this fragment to inhabit.
Ultimately, Si Jin was arrogant; the immense power bestowed upon him by heaven and earth fostered a self-centered and domineering personality.
He would not allow anyone to challenge his authority, not even the Heavenly Emperor, nor even fragments of his own soul!
After thinking for a moment, the assistants actually thought of a place, so they got up together and prepared to take him there.
Si Jin stood up, and as she passed Xiao Chen, she deliberately paused, tilted her head, and casually said, "The Heavenly King Palace has long belonged to the Zhou family, but do you know why you're still here?"
Xiao Chen didn't look up, but his face was ashen with anger, and his hands were trembling uncontrollably.
He listened as Si Jin continued, "Because I arranged for them to trap you. As long as you and Zhou Nan are separated for two years, she can unilaterally divorce you and be with her childhood sweetheart."
"Wishing you a happy divorce after being cuckolded."
After saying this, a soft laugh escaped her lips, and Si Jin strode away.
The hall fell silent for a moment, leaving Xiao Chen alone, staring blankly at the cold food on the table, as if he had fallen into the deepest despair.
… …
The assistants brought Si Jin to a hidden basement constructed of mirrors that His Highness the Heavenly King had concealed.
Just looking at the entrance, it's like a maze, making people feel dizzy without realizing it.
The assistant explained that the Heavenly King Palace used to take on assassin jobs, and at least several hundred innocent souls have died here.
Logically speaking, it should be the perfect hiding place for "Si Jin".
"I understand, thank you. You can go ahead and get back to work." After sending them away, Si Jin decisively stepped into the cool and mesmerizing mirror maze.
