Chapter 146: Even the Three-Dimensional World Knows

Su Lin was surprised by the reactions of Qin Jiuyue and Qin Delin; neither of them showed any signs of sadness on their faces, but rather seemed quite happy. Su Lin felt there must be something missing.

Logically in the original plot, the news should have already spread that Qin Deshu had suffered a stroke and couldn't manage the family, and Qin Delin should have taken over. But the reactions of Qin Jiuyue and Qin Delin suggested that everything was normal.

Su Lin pulled Qin Jiuyue aside and asked quietly, “Xiaoyue, did anything happen after I left last night?”

Qin Jiuyue glanced at Qin Delin, then whispered, “Su Lin, you're too bold. Not long after you flew away last night, the butler came out. There are martial arts masters in the family, and they can sense your aura the moment you move.”

“I heard that today the butler has arranged for surveillance to be installed all around, covering a two-kilometer radius without any blind spots.”

Su Lin chuckled, “Xiaoyue, aren't you a bit like the arm that bends outwards, telling me all this?”

“I'm worried about your safety. Be more careful in the future and don't fly around randomly.”

Su Lin nodded, “I'll keep that in mind.”

In this constantly evolving world, who knows when a Danjin Grandmaster or a terrestrial immortal might appear? Su Lin felt it was better to keep a low profile.

Seeing Su Lin agree, Qin Jiuyue was satisfied. She wanted to say more, but by then, Qin Delin had already packed the blue and white porcelain in a box.

With satisfaction, Qin Delin said to Qin Jiuyue, “Xiaoyue, let's go back.”

Qin Jiuyue didn't want to leave and said somewhat dejectedly, “Grandpa, are we going back so early?”

“What else? It's just after eight now, and Su Lin probably hasn't had breakfast yet. We shouldn't disturb him,” Qin Deshu said indifferently.

“But... I rarely get to come out, I don't want to go back so early,” Qin Jiuyue pouted, looking pitifully at Qin Delin.

“What do you want to do then, Xiaoyue?”

She looked at Qin Delin, “Grandpa, I haven't had breakfast either. How about I go have breakfast with Su Lin, then play around here, and meet you at Cangbaozhai before noon? What do you think?”

Hearing this, Qin Delin sighed, “What, you can't have fun with this old man?”

“Hehe, Grandpa, you know I'm not interested in vases and jars. Just let me go and have some fun.”

Unable to resist Qin Jiuyue's persistence, Qin Delin finally said, “Alright, alright... but remember, you must be at Cangzhaobai before twelve, or I won't cover for you with your big brother~.”

“Mhm, don't worry, Grandpa, I'll be on time.”

Qin Delin nodded and then left with the box.

Su Lin was a bit surprised, “He just left like that?”

“What else? Did you want to keep him for breakfast? He already had breakfast before coming out.”

“Uh... I didn't mean that. I meant, he just left you here?”

Qin Jiuyue giggled, “What could happen in Donghai? Plus, my grandpa knows I wanted to go out alone. I'm already twenty; who needs supervision when going out?”

Su Lin laughed, “Don't take your blessings for granted. I wish I had someone to watch over me, but I don’t have that privilege.”

Meanwhile, in a rental house in Beihai District of Donghai City, Xiao Chen suddenly felt a dagger pressed against his neck. He opened his eyes and saw Blood Rose holding the dagger, looking at him warily.

Xiao Chen, not sensing any killing intent from Blood Rose, was very pleased and decided to tease her. “Uh... is this how you treat your lifesaver?”

“Did you dress my wound?” Blood Rose asked coldly.

Xiao Chen looked at the thick bandages wrapped around her, which he had considerately applied medicine to.

“Of course not. What kind of person do you think I, Xiao Chen, am? I wouldn't do something like that. I had a female doctor dress your wound.”

Blood Rose remained vigilant.

“Hehe, do you think if I had dressed your wound, it would have been done so well?”

Blood Rose extended three fingers.

Xiao Chen asked, puzzled, “What does that mean?”

“I can do three things for you to repay the life-saving grace you've shown me.”

Xiao Chen pondered upon hearing the offer. Being new to Donghai, he was unfamiliar with the area. The humiliation he suffered from Li Ziyen was still fresh in his mind, and he wasn't about to let it slide easily.

As for Blood Rose, although he didn't know her story, he was certain she had nowhere else to go. Not wanting such a delicate beauty to die too soon, Xiao Chen deliberated.

“Three things, can you really do whatever I ask?”

“As long as it's within my power. If I can't, I'll return my life to you.”

Xiao Chen nodded, “Alright! Then the first thing I need you to do is to bring Li Ziyen of the Li family here. The Li family is a wealthy clan in Donghai and might have martial artists, so be careful.”

He had originally planned a surprise visit to Li Ziyen, but thought it too lenient. It seemed better to stabilize Blood Rose with this excuse first.

After a pause, Blood Rose asked, “Alive or dead?”

Xiao Chen, startedled, then said sternly, “Alive is best, but dead is also acceptable.” Do as you see fit. If you can bring him, do so; if not, let him die.”

“Okay!” Blood Rose turned and left.

“Wait, what about your injury?”

She waved her hand, “I'm no longer seriously hurt.” With that, she lightly leaped to the windowsill and disappeared from Xiao Chen's sight.

Xiao Chen thought of Su Lin's humiliation, “Li Ziyen really thinks I, Xiao Chen, dare not kill? If it weren't for the engagement with the Li family, I'd annihilate them.”

“Blood Rose, an assassin group? Seems like I need to call my master and inquire.”

Xiao Chen was no fool. While he wanted to win over Blood Rose, he needed to understand the background of the assassin group. If it was average, he would have no choice but to eliminate them.

…

“Su Lin, where are you going?”

“Su Lin, you can fly, so why do you still drive every day?”

“Su Lin…”

In the car, Su Lin looked at Qin Jiuyue with a headache, “Can you be quiet for a while? I'm going to work.”

“You? Work?”

“Don't be ridiculous, what else would I be doing?” Su Lin replied, somewhat exasperated.

He hadn't expected Qin Jiuyue to be so talkative once they got familiar. But considering she was lonelier than Lin Xiaowan, having no friends from childhood, he understood.

“Are you going to your supermarket?”

Su Lin, surprised, “Looks like you've done your homework, investigating me?”

“Not really, I just asked the butler about you,” Qin Jiuyue said, blushing slightly.

She had demanded information about Su Lin from Butler Qin the previous night. The file mentioned his good relations with three women, one of whom she had met, Zhao Yanyan, with long legs. The other two were reported in Zhongjiang.

When she saw this information, Qin Jiuyue felt anxious, worrying Su Lin would ignore her, so she insisted on coming with Qin Delin to see him.

“Don't worry, big families investigate people all the time. I'm not afraid of them probing.”

“Hehe, you must also know about me then.”

Su Lin nodded, “I know too well.” Even the three dimensions.”

“Oh? Really? “I’m not even clear about that myself,” Qin Jiuyue said, smiling.

But Su Lin just chuckled, “Truer than pearls.”

[Qin Jiuyue: 20 years old, 165 cm tall, 45 kg, 35C.]. [Affection rating: 63 and rising.]. [Skills: Advanced Management, Advanced English, Advanced Piano, Advanced Violin, Advanced French, Advanced Go, Intermediate Swordsmanship, Intermediate…]. [Current Health: 100]. [Purity: 100]. [Current Mood: Excited].

“Alright, we're here. Xiaoyue, are you sure you want to come in with me? You know the company has a lot of work, and I might not have time to entertain you.”

Qin Jiuyue nodded, “I'll come with you.” If I get bored, I'll go find other friends to play with. Don't worry, I won't disturb your work.”

Su Lin nodded and sent a message to Zhao Yanyan, then he and Qin Jiuyue went upstairs together.
