The minute hand of the pendulum clock moved in the club had merely made one round when Luo Qiu and his customer, Su Zijun, came back. Luo Qiu looked normal but Su Zijun had a pale face. She looked like a giant pressure cooker which could explode⦠anytime.
Su Zijun whispered, âThree hundred billion is impossible! This is just your excuse. You said you were supposed to sell everything⦠Liar.â Luo Qiu knew that she said it on purpose. He smiled and didnât intend to respond, âMiss. Zijun, itâs quite early, would you like to drink something?â
âNo.â Su Zijun stared at Luo Qiu and then left.
You Ye came close to Luo Qiu after seeing Su Zijun leaving. She said with a pity, âOh, I just made a blood drink for Miss. Zijun.â
âReally? How did you make that?â Luo Qiu asked curiously.
You Ye smiled, âIt was a little hard based on the traditional way. So I made it using molecular cuisine.â
âWellâ¦â
Luo Qiu was in a good mood as he just received a large transaction fee. He said, âLetâs cook. You can assist me today but donât laugh at my poor cooking.â

Long Xiruo was fixing the second seal when she saw Su Zijun walking to her while frowning.
âWhy did you come back so early?â Long Xiruo stopped and asked Su Zijun curiously.
Su Zijun found a stone and sat on it. âOld lady, have you ever done business with that sinister club owner?â
Long Xiruo planned to chat leisurely with her but frowned upon hearing this, âWhat are you going to do by asking this?â
Su Zijun glanced at Long Xiruo, âHe said he could open Penglai.â
Long Xiruo was shocked and she wanted to⦠object, âPenglai is just a legend!â
Su Zijun said, âIt was said that the first dragon was born in Penglai. And Jiuzhou Xuanyuan came from Penglai, too. And also the celestial beings that were living in Penglai.â
âBut it is just a legend.â Long Xiruo continued to fix the seal, âThere are a lot of people who died for this legend all these years. You shouldnât put your effort into seeking a fake legend⦠Better to care about the little guy under the ground than that. What did you do to her?â
âNothing.â Su Zijun said, âI am fattening her up, canât I?â
Long Xiruo said nothing⦠She clearly understood Su Zijunâs style more than anyone else, âYouâd better not go to that place. I feel that it will be more complex than what we imagine.â
âI will be careful.â Su Zijun responded and then looked at the cave. âWhatâs that?â
Long Xiruo answered her without hesitation, âThe one who attacked me last time. I am busy fixing the seal so have no time to deal with it. I will do it later.â
That was a huge pile of rotting meat.
Su Zijun still remembered that Long Xiruo killed the big meat ball with her last breath when it attacked her successfully. She cut off most of its body and it fell into the water.
âThere should be another one here?â Su Zijun stepped forward and looked at it⦠It was too ugly so that Su Zijun stood aside right away with a disgusted face.
âI donât know. Maybe it was flushed to another place.â Long Xiruo answered, âIt should be dead. I canât feel its existence.â
Su Zijun sniffed, âThere is no smell in the neighborhood⦠It was brought here by Xiang Liu. I need to ask him about it as well as about his assistant. The Godly Land is not a place for them to play.â
âWhen did you become so active?â Long Xiruo was surprised.
Su Zijun said, âXiang Liu has been punished but his assistant had attacked me previously. I am going to get even with him.â
âOK, go ahead.â Long Xiruo knew that Su Zijun was vindictive. âI will go back to the hospital when I am finished.â
Su Zijun glanced at the rotting meat again. She had noticed it ever since she came in. As for the reason she guided the conversation that way, it was because she needed an excuse to meet Xiang Liu. Not only was she a fierce woman, but also a scheming one.

The TV was playing cartoonsâMagical show, Goddess Duomi, transform! BiuBiuâBiu
âXiaozhi, turn down the volume!â
âOK, mommy!â Xiaozhi was holding the remote and she pressed the volume button with her little and white finger. âWhat are we going to eat tonight, mommy?â
âYou watch TV first, I will consider it when I finish grinding the soybean.â San Er stopped and wiped her sweat on the face.
The little Tofu shop was not very large. The front was for business and the back was the living quarters.
âThree RMB of Tofu, please.â A voice came from the door of the little shop. San Er turned back with a smile, âOkay, wait a momentâ¦â
But San Er stopped smiling at once. She cut the target Tofu and packed it with banana leaves quickly. Then, she put it on the table, âHere we go.â
The one who bought the Tofu was a strong man. He was about thirty years old and was about one point seventy-five meters high. He said nothing, merely taking out the money and handing it to San Er.
San Er reached out to take it but the man didnât release his grip; instead, holding the money tightly. He touched San Erâs hand, âYour hand is so delicate just like the Tofu. But why is it so calloused?â
âYou, release me! What⦠are you doing!â San Er took her hand back and stared at the man angrily⦠He was a notorious scoundrel in this town.
âLittle San Er, did anyone tell that you are beautiful even when you are angry?â
âPut your money here, I need to close the shop.â San Er didnât want to talk much with him. She was going to close the door of this shop. But the man stopped her when the door was pulled halfway, âDonât worry, the sun is not going down.â
âI have nothing to say to you!â San Er pulled the door with more strength, but she failed.
âThen letâs do something else together. Not chattingâ¦â The man smiled, âThere are so many things we can do after the sun goes down.â
âZhang Kun, get out of here⦠if you donât, I will call the police!â San Er kept away from him.
âCall my brother-in-law? âZhang Kun smiled, âno need, we drunk together in the afternoon.â After saying those words, Zhang Kun walked into the Tofu shop directly and smirked, âSan Er, think about me? You are a single woman with a small kid. Life is so hard. How about being my girlfriend?â
âZhang Kun, go⦠leave now!â San Er got worried, âI⦠Iâm going to call others!â
âCall for what?â Zhang Kun smiled coldly, âDo you want to call for others and tell them that you, a window, made a pass at me? It must be. You have been single for almost three years.â
âYou⦠stop framing me!â
âMommy!â At this time, Xiaozhi walked out when she voices. She shivered when she saw Zhang Kun.
âOh, Xiaozhi.â Zhang Kun laughed and hugged Xiaozhi right away, âHavenât seen you for several days, you are becoming more and more beautiful.â
âZhang Kun, let her go! Now!â
âDonât worry, I am just checking. I am not a monster!â Zhang Kun continued, âXiaozhi, Uncle will bring you for a good meal, OK?â
Seeing San Er about to rush and take her little girl back⦠Zhang Kun couldnât wait for her action. But the table in front was knocked by someone at this moment and a voice said, âIs this place still open?â
A tall foreign man was standing at the doorway, who seemed like a castaway.
