Qilin Yuhun Hall, at 11 o'clock in the evening, Lin Xiao, who could not hide his fatigue, walked out of the private room of the simulation training room.

Meng Ziran suggested going to the bar here for a drink, "I'd like to formally apologize to you. I'm really sorry. This time it's mine."

She had already explained clearly what happened this time to the two of them. It was all because she failed to protect Lin Xiao that Liu Youqing used means to forcefully separate the two.

Of course Mu Bi kept waving her hands and denying it, saying it was not her fault but that she was too weak, but Lin Xiao was really a little resentful towards her.

So when he was in the booth, regardless of the relaxing atmosphere of soothing music lingering around his ears, he directly vented his grievances.

"I just don't understand. You know this is the trend in the Phoenix Society, why do you still deny it? It's so difficult to say something positive? Or is it that you are afraid of Liu Youqing?"

"Of course I'm not afraid of her."

"Then what's the reason?"

"because...."

Meng Ziran tilted his head slightly, with a look of guilt on his face, and his eyes, which were always as cold as ice knives, also released a little warmth of humanity.

She, who was always as cold as ice in the face of stormy waves, would actually do the same.

Lin Xiao was startled and glanced at Mu Bi, who was indeed stared at fiercely.

He knew what Mu Bi meant, how could you say that to Ziran, it was obviously my fault, how could you blame Ziran, but he was determined that the other party would not dare to show it in front of Meng Ziran.

Otherwise, their identity as a couple who deliberately pretended to be shown to Meng Ziran would be exposed.

"Because I have a reason that I can't say."

Meng Ziran was silent for a long time before saying this.

Lin Xiao asked what the reason was, but she didn't say anything.

When I pressed him again, she suddenly became angry and said her next sentence with a cold face.

"I'm sorry, but after all, this matter is not within the scope of responsibility of our contract, and I have no obligation to protect you."

Lin Xiao frowned, spread his hands and said, "So you won't tell us even the most basic reasons?"

Meng Ziran didn't speak, just stared at Lin Xiao, who looked at her without fear.

Mu Bi looked on very nervously, but because she was afraid of being exposed and couldn't intervene, she could only sit there and worry.

"Maybe one day I will tell you."

Seeing that he could not make Lin Xiao surrender with his momentum, Meng Ziran simply stood up and prepared to leave.

"but not now."

After she finished speaking, she turned around and left.

The handsome bartender just brought the drinks and he was quite confused.

"Well, this is the wine you ordered..."

Lin Xiao stood up with an apologetic look, "Sorry, leave it to the next table of guests."

The soothing music faded out of his ears, and he walked quickly to the elevator shaft. The metal door slowly closed, and he looked at Meng Ziran for the last second.

The warmth from before was completely gone from the girl's eyes, and there was only an indifference that refused to allow anyone to stay thousands of miles away.

What on earth is going on?

If you really don't want to say anything, you might as well just find some excuse to explain it away. This way, you simply don't take him seriously.

Lin Xiao gritted his teeth.

It's this feeling again, of being looked down upon.

Meng Ziran did not regard him as someone with whom he could interact as an equal.

It's not that I'm looking down on you, but there is indeed a huge gap in all aspects, including cognition, strength, money, class...

He was not qualified to be treated as an equal by Meng Ziran at all. Perhaps in the eyes of the other party, some things were in vain even if he said them, so he simply stopped saying them.

Not qualified...?

Lin Xiao snorted coldly.

Just wait, Meng Ziran, what qualifications are you? Immediately, I will prove to you that this thing is not applicable to me at all.

...

In the core laboratory of the institute, the automatic door slowly opened, revealing a man in a white coat.

(This chapter is not finished, please turn the page)

He picked up an encrypted walkie-talkie and whispered: "Secure the passage and don't let anyone enter."

"Don't worry, Director An, not even a fly can fly in."

An Tombstone nodded, walked to the console, verified his identity, and turned on the device.

Soon, an erected electronic crystal coffin appeared in front of him.

The crystal coffin slowly opened as he operated, revealing a translucent silver-haired girl.

The girl opened her eyes and smiled.

His eyes were full of disgust.

"You're here again, you bastard."

An Tombstone's expression remained unchanged and he asked calmly: "It's the same question as before, where is Chu Xianhui hiding? Tell me and I can let you go out and play for a few days."

"Idiot, do you think I will still be fooled by you?"

The girl suddenly smiled, revealing two sharp tiger teeth.

"Come here and let me have a bite. Maybe I can think about it?"

"Okay, but you have to say it first."

"No, you let me eat first."

"You speak first."

"I'll eat first."

The two fell into silence.

After a while, An Tombstone sighed and said, "Aren't you and Chu Xianhui not willing to deal with each other? Are you willing to see her playing happily outside?"

"Of course I'm not willing to do it, but I want to see you shriveled up even more."

An Tombstone reached out and wanted to press a red button on the controller, but the girl's fearless expression made him give up.

"I'm begging you." An Tombstone had no choice but to lower his stance, "The council has issued an ultimatum. If Chu Xianhui is not found again, this research institute will lose its soul energy supply, and both you and Liang Xia will die by then.

."

"We are already dead." The girl sneered.

"I mean out of my mind."

"Do you think I'm an idiot like you? Are you willing to let us disappear?"

The tombstone fell into silence.

Then, he suddenly punched the red button.

"Ahhhhh!!"

Red light shot out from the crystal coffin, and the girl's whole body twitched as if she'd been electrocuted, screaming in pain.

"You bastard! Scumbag! Bastard! Ugh!"

"I'm just helping you figure out the situation. Who is in charge here?"

An Tombstone sneered, turned around and walked out.

"Take some pain, my little beauty, I hope you can change your mind next time I come again."

...

...

At 11:30 p.m., Lin Xiao sent Mu Bi back to the dormitory of the high-rise apartment building in Phoenix Garden, and they had a small quarrel downstairs.

Mu Bi was dissatisfied with his attitude towards Meng Ziran and said that since Ziran had difficulties, why did he insist on insisting on it? Lin Xiao asked her what our difficulties were and why you were bullied by Liu Youqing. Give Mu Bi more

I was speechless there.

"Hey, isn't this our beauty Mu?"

While they were in a stalemate, three girls in cool clothes came over. They seemed to be Mu Bi's acquaintances. Lin Xiao turned to look at them.

I don’t know them, but they look familiar. They are all beauties, but none of them are as good as Mu Bi.

"Are you Mu Bi's boyfriend?"

The girl in the middle with curly twintails looked at him with a sarcastic look on her face, "I heard that as soon as she moved into our Fenghuang Garden today, it caused quite a sensation and could attract the attention of our minister. I thought

What kind of handsome guy is he, and this is the result?"
