Even the shrewd and calculating Li Wei had no choice but to admit defeat at this point.
He believed that if the car was lost, even if it had nothing to do with him, Shen Jing would still come to his door to cause trouble!
Isn't this just shooting oneself in the foot?
Li Wei thought to himself, "Why is Shen Jing so difficult to deal with? I thought this kind of girl would be the easiest to coax."
So he had no choice but to have someone quickly bring over the three pieces of genuine jade.
He deliberately withheld those; the thought of giving them away again is heartbreaking! These are the finest emeralds from the best source, extremely rare.
Shen Jing was very satisfied because the notification sound of "Gained 15% Luck Value" was already echoing in her mind.
She was about to close up shop and see the customer out. "I'll deliver the address to your home later."
When Li Wei heard her deliberately and accurately state his address, he couldn't help but shudder.
One day! He'll make this woman pay, preferably in bed!!
Shen Jing glanced at him, finding even the supernatural abilities she unleashed disgusting.
A cold glint flashed in her eyes, and right in front of him, she slammed the three security doors shut with a loud "bang".
With such a despicable person in power, this community doesn't look like it will last long!
Shen Jing had just tried to control him with her mental abilities, but with little success; she could only uncover his filthy thoughts.
It seems I need to level up as soon as possible.
After Shen Jing learned that Li Wei had left, she opened her front door.
"Knock knock knock," she then banged on the door of room 2004.
Seeing Gu Yan open the door, she withdrew her hand that had been pounding on the door and pulled him inside.
However, Gu Yan blocked her with one hand and pressed her against the door.
"What happened?"
Just as Shen Jing was about to push him away, she heard these words and stood in the entryway. Actually, she didn't really want to go into his house either.
Gu Yan took two steps back, grabbed at the air, and the mutated vines emerged.
He handed her the crystal core from the mutated vine. "Crystal core?"
After saying that, he placed the crystal core in Shen Jing's hand.
Shen Jing was speechless. Had she become a landlady now?
Having just received a bag of jade from Li Wei, and now with crystal cores in hand, "I haven't even said anything yet."
"Two pills a day, didn't we agree?" Gu Yan didn't linger by her side like before. After saying this, he went back into the house decisively and lay down on the sofa as if he had no bones.
Shen Jing quickly noticed something was wrong with him. "Why is the backlash more severe this time? Do you need spiritual spring water?"
She approached the sofa, positioned herself directly above Gu Yan, and scrutinized his lifeless face.
Gu Yan lifted his eyelids, glanced at her carefree smiling face, and lazily closed his eyes again.
Shen Jing snorted coldly, wondering what had gotten into this old man again.
"Does your building where you store supplies also have surveillance cameras and combination locks?"
"Hmm." Gu Yan replied listlessly.
"I'll return the crystal core to you; I'll rent it for half a day."
"Oh." Boring.
Gu Yan did not take the crystal core, but added casually, "If you don't want it, just throw it away."
Shen Jing glared at him, "Just keep acting like this."
"I don't need crystal cores to advance."
Gu Yan's face was always expressionless, and when he said those words, it truly proved the saying: the most deadly form of showing off is the subtle kind!
He suddenly sneered, "I know that your desire for the crystal core is greater than your desire to see me."
Isn't it obvious? Is there any need to doubt it?
Shen Jing was full of questions.
Her matter-of-fact attitude successfully infuriated Gu Yan once again, leaving him utterly despondent.
Seeing that he had withdrawn again, Shen Jing quickly stepped forward and said, "We'll go out to find a lake in a bit, and we also need to store some things at the building. It'll be quick and won't take up much time."
She spoke very quickly and explained the itinerary very clearly.
Gu Yan, who was being assigned the task, simply gave a faint "hmm" without even moving a hair.
Shen Jing couldn't help but kick him, "Get up."
Seeing her radiant expression, Gu Yan couldn't help but tease her, "Haven't you thought about going back to your original world? Knowing you're a transmigrator, why are you still so invested?"
"...Did I have a choice?" Shen Jing's face darkened as she looked at Gu Yan with pursed lips.
At this moment, their expressions were remarkably similar, devoid of both sorrow and joy.
Gu Yan's spirit was incredibly strong; he could sense the five elements and tame the mutated vines.
But he couldn't bridge the gap between himself and Shen Jing.
Even though the two of them are now so close, he knows better than anyone that they are separated by two different worlds.
His expression grew increasingly gloomy and unpleasant.
The two were speechless for a moment, but in the end, the survivalist Shen Jing didn't want to waste any more time. "Forget it, I'll find another place."
Coming to Gu Yanwen Building was just a side trip on the way to the lake.
Gu Yan pulled her arm and said in a muffled voice, "I just agreed."
Shen Jing was once again certain that she and he were incompatible and could not work together.
She has to try to make a name for herself, settle scores with those who committed evil deeds in her past life, and then live a carefree, unambitious life.
Everything else is meaningless compared to survival.
Gu Yan seemed to sense something, and looked up at Shen Jing. He looked very tired, and suddenly said in a low voice, "I'm about to die."
Shen Jing was still thinking about how to part ways when she accepted the idea of renting the space, which was just a spur-of-the-moment decision.
That's incredibly stupid.
Now that all his assets are bound to this space, how can we get a divorce? No, how can we part ways?!
She made such an idiotic decision because she wanted the crystal core so much. No wonder Gu Yan said that her desire for the crystal core was greater than her desire to see him; he understood her too well.
