Spoiled By the Young Master After Reborn In the 80s-Chapter 835: Eight hundred and thirty-three, conspiracy
Chapter 835: Eight hundred and thirty-three, conspiracy
The young man’s eyes flashed with a hint of anger. "I do not have a fever." He had thought that dealing with a little girl would be easy but, to his surprise, his charm seemed to have no effect on her at all.
In The Lost Space, since he lost to Lu Hanmo and Luo Shu last time, he had always felt dissatisfied. Later, by a twist of fate, he met Luo Shan, and it was from her that he learned Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo were not from The Lost Space and that it was she who had taken him through the Teleportation Array to Yuan Star.
After arriving at Yuan Star, he collected a lot of information about Luo Shu and Lu Hanmo, planning to take action at the right opportunity. As for Chen Xiaomeng, he approached her not out of genuine affection but out of a desire to use her. If she were to betray Luo Shu, Luo Shu would indeed be heartbroken.
He chose Chen Xiaomeng because she appeared the most naive, and naive people are often easily swayed.
After realizing she was being held by the other person, Chen Xiaomeng frantically pushed him away and dashed into the house.
She slammed the door shut and leaned against it, panting heavily. The moment he embraced her, she felt a chilling sensation, especially when he confessed to her. She was not sure if it was just her imagination, but she always felt as if the man was dangerous.
The young man withdrew his gaze, turned, and went back to his own room where he set up a Formation. With a wave of his hand, a woman suddenly appeared on the bed in the room, completely motionless. From her pale face and her chest that lacked any sign of breathing, it was clear she had been dead for some time.
The young man stepped forward and placed an Elixir into the woman’s mouth. These days, he had tried all sorts of methods but still hadn’t been able to bring Luo Shan back to life.
He had exhumed Luo Shan intending to use her again to strike at Luo Shu. He knew that Luo Shu and Luo Shan had a younger brother, Luo Zheng. If he could revive Luo Shan, he would have her convince Luo Zheng, then have the siblings join forces against Luo Shu.
Being betrayed by one’s own sister and brother surely would not feel good. But despite trying so hard for so long, he still hadn’t seen any success. Moreover, Chen Xiaomeng had been unyielding. It seemed like he needed to change his plans.
Ever since Luo Zheng defeated Ling Tianyu, his popularity at Jiangzhou Guard School had soared. Especially after people found out that his brother-in-law was Lu Hanmo, everyone was eager to get closer to him.
But Luo Zheng, just like before, kept a certain distance from others except for getting a bit closer to Qin Che. He was now practicing a True Cultivation Technique, and the less he interacted with others, the less likely his secret would be discovered.
Walking side by side on campus with Qin Che, Luo Zheng said, "I’m off tomorrow, I’m going to visit my sister. She’ll be leaving for Jinchen in a few days, and after that, it’ll not be so easy to see her." His relationship with his sister had finally made some progress, and now she would be leaving again.
"I’ll go with you," said Qin Che. He had not seen Sister Luo Shu for a long time and missed her. He had originally planned to return early during the New Year to visit Sister Luo Shu in the Guard District, but he was delayed by some matters and couldn’t make it.
Luo Zheng smiled and nodded, "Sister will be very happy to see you."
"Then I’ll go and ask for leave." As Qin Che spoke, he was already heading to the instructor’s office.
The leave was granted smoothly. Qin Che returned to the dormitory and started packing some local specialties he had brought from his hometown into his bag, planning to take them to Sister Luo Shu the next day.
Luo Zheng did not call Luo Shu to tell her he was coming to see her; he planned to surprise her.
The next morning, Luo Zheng and Qin Che left the school and arrived at the bus station, planning to take a bus to the Guard District.
"Big brother." A child’s tender voice sounded next to Luo Zheng.
Luo Zheng turned to look and saw a seven or eight-year-old beggar.
"Someone asked me to give this to you." The little beggar handed a letter to Luo Zheng.
Luo Zheng took the letter with a look of surprise. Who could have sent him a letter?
He tore open the envelope and unfolded the letter paper to see just one line of writing.
Seeing the content, Luo Zheng’s face showed a hint of joy.
"Who gave you the letter?" Qin Che asked curiously.
"It’s from my Second Sister; she says she’ll be waiting for me at the abandoned stone factory in the suburbs." Luo Zheng handed the letter paper to Qin Che joyfully. He finally had news of his Second Sister, and as soon as he saw her, he would take her to see his sister. He believed his sister would be thrilled to see Second Sister.
Qin Che glanced at the content on the letter paper and handed it back to Luo Zheng, "Could this be a trap? If your Second Sister sent someone to deliver the letter, she must know your whereabouts. Why wouldn’t she show up herself instead of sending someone with a letter?"
Upon hearing this, Luo Zheng also felt that Qin Che’s analysis was right. He had been so overwhelmed by the pleasant surprise upon seeing the letter that he hadn’t thought deeply about it.
"Then, are you going?" asked Qin Che.
After some thought, Luo Zheng nodded, "Yes! Whether it’s true or false, I have to go and see," he had been so anxious for so long, not hearing from his Second Sister. Now that there finally was news, he naturally didn’t want to miss out.
Qin Che understood Luo Zheng’s feelings at the moment, "Let’s go." If it had been him, he would have made the same choice.
The two took the bus to the outskirts of the city and then walked towards the stone factory.
After about twenty minutes, they finally arrived at the long-abandoned stone factory. fɾeeweɓnѳveɭ.com
The area was desolate, the two iron factory gates had long rusted, with one already fallen and leaning against the wall.
A row of low-rise factory buildings had collapsed more than half, and the remaining half looked very precarious.
Luo Zheng and Qin Che exchanged glances, both with a hint of caution in their eyes. They felt that something odd was going on, as even for a meeting, this desolate, abandoned ruin was not a suitable place.
"Second Sister! It’s Xiao Zheng, I’ve arrived, where are you?" Entering the factory, Luo Zheng shouted.
A man dressed in a black robe, wearing a mask, suddenly appeared in front of Luo Zheng and Qin Che, startling them both.
Luo Zheng steadied himself and asked the man, "Who are you?! Where’s my Second Sister?" He knew that this matter was indeed not simple.
"Your Second Sister is inside, come in with me," said the man in black, stepping towards the building.
Luo Zheng and Qin Che looked at each other, both a little hesitant. The strength of the man in the black robe was unfathomable—should they really follow him in?
