âHuh? Youâre angry?â
Alex was dumbfounded. He looked at Cheryl with his eyes widened and an innocent expression.
âYou⦠Whom are you angry with? Is it because of Soraya Melvis?â
Cheryl was speechless at that moment. âAre you thick in the head?â
âIâve already expressed my anger so obviously, yet you still couldnât notice it. How did you even get
along with your wife back then? Is your EQ on the negative spectrum?â
âYou, itâs you! Iâm angry with you. Canât you feel it?â
Alex was even more dumbfounded now. He said, âWhy are you angry with me?â
Cheryl felt her entire body going weak. âThereâs no reason!â
âI canât just tell you that Iâm angry with you because you didnât want to sleep with me last night. How
embarrassing it would be!â
At this moment, Alex suddenly remembered that he had not taken out the made amulet to give it to her.
He immediately took off the backpack from his back After opening it up, there were a total of eight jade
pendants for self protection, it was the result after spending a busy night yesterday.
He casually took one out. âPut this on.â
Of course, Cheryl recognized that stuff. âIs this⦠What you carved last night? What is carved on it?â
âA formation blueprint! This is an amulet that can ward away evil spirits and protect its owner. The
energy on it can probably withstand three attacks from a Grandmaster!â
âIs that so powerful?â
Even though Cheryl did not know how powerful a Grandmaster was, she had heard from her
grandfather that they could not be compared with ordinary men. They were the kind of existence that
could break a rock in one smash. Since the tiny jade pendant could actually withstand three attacks
from a Grandmaster, this pendant was really powerful. âDoes that mean that this jade pendant will not
break from falling?â
Alex had a speechless expression.
This was a mystical tool.
If a Grandmaster could not even break it, it certainly would not break from a fall.
However, he knew that it was hard for her to understand even if he explained it. He just grabbed her left
hand. With a poke from the dragon bone needle, he squeezed out a little blood on her finger and wiped
it on the jade pendant.
In the next moment, a golden light gleamed on the jade pendant and a large word âReiâ appeared.
âAlright. This jade pendant has been activated now. Wear it every day, so that the snakes, insects, rats
and ants wonât dare to approach you. You should be fine even if you get knocked by a car. The ghosts
and foul creatures will not dare to get to you as well.â
âHuh? This⦠This is too exaggerated, isnât it?â
âYouâll know once you wear it.â
The jade pendant had been threaded with a string. Once Cheryl put it on, she could feel a breeze of
cool relief from the summer heat. It was extremely comfortable. To her surprise, it could even prevent
mosquitoes. It was really too great.
Just when she was thinking about it, Alex squatted down again. âGet up. Thereâs no more road in front.
If youâre really going to walk on your own, we wonât reach our destination before the sun goes down.â
***
Cheryl laid on the back of Alex.
Seeing him walking through the complex jungle terrain as if he were flying, she once again
remembered the annoyance of his indifference when he faced her seduction.
âYou didnât sleep for the entire night because you were making this?â
âYes!â
âFine, Iâll forgive you then.â
ââ¦â
âBut, just now I thought I saw you have made many?â
Those were certainly to be given to other women. For example, Dorothy Assex, Waltz Fleur, Michelle
Yowell, Brittany Rockefeller, and Maya Howards⦠Even though his EQ was not particularly high, it was
not low enough for him to be stupid as well. He just said, âAmulet is a consumable item. Once the
energy on it is depleted, it would become useless. I just happened to have the materials, so I just made
a few more! Whenever yours is broken, you can change for a new one.â
âI thought you were going to give them to other women.â
âUm⦠Thisâ¦â
Alex pondered for a while. Alright, some things had to be made clear. Otherwise, he would be
deceiving her feelings. âThere are a few of them. Indeed, I wanted to give them to someone else.â
Cheryl kept quiet.
Alex was quiet for a while as well. He said, âCheryl, how much do you hate your father?â
