In the end, she couldn't help but stomp on Luo Bi's foot: "Why can't Sister Luo Bi think more about the family?"

Luo Yan's relentless smear campaign against Luo Bi was undoubtedly aimed at tarnishing Luo Bi's reputation. Once Luo Bi's reputation was ruined, public opinion would lean more in her favor. Then, if Hua Chen chose her over Luo Bi, no one would criticize it.

Luo Yan's understanding made Luo Feifan very pleased. He patted her hand and decided not to waste any more effort on Luo Bi. That child was too stubborn. He then turned to probe Feng Ling's stance. As long as it could be solved with interstellar currency, he wouldn't be stingy and would give it to him.

Luo Juan had the same idea, and together they tried to persuade Feng Ling to sell it. As Wen Yao, Luo Juan's good friend, felt the hope was slim, he still tried his best to convince Feng Ling to sell.

Feng Ling smiled and shook his head: "You know that fire-type red jadeite above the fourth grade is very rare. Obtaining it is purely a matter of luck. I also need such a piece of red jadeite, so I'm sorry, but I won't sell it."

Feng Ling wasn't like Luo Bi; he didn't need to consider the Luo family's feelings. After saying this, he asked Luo Bi: "Do you want to go back?"

Luo Bi had been eager to leave and nodded with a "Ah."

"We'll leave first." Feng Ling said, calling Luo Bi to walk out. Guan Zhuting, who had been silent all along, followed behind.

They completely ignored how the others would deal with the crying and fussing Luo Yan after they left.

Feng Ling's military hovercar was parked in the glass corridor parking lot under the gemstone guild building. While Feng Ling was getting the car, Guan Zhuting called Hua Ran again and learned that Luo Hang was on his way and would arrive soon.

"Your father is about to arrive. I'll wait for him here. When we meet the old master, we'll probably have to maneuver a bit. You should go back in Deputy Officer Feng's car first," Guan Zhuting said to Luo Bi after hanging up.

Luo Bi didn't quite agree with her father meeting the old master at this critical moment, frowned, but ultimately said nothing, only reminding her: "Remember not to lose out."

At this moment, Feng Ling drove the hovercar over. Luo Bi got in and explained: "We'll go first. My mother wants to stay and wait for my father."

The hovercar drove off, and Feng Ling asked: "Do you want me to take you home?"

Luo Bi didn't answer immediately. Her mood was very complex. After pondering for a moment, she asked: "Is the status of a Contract Master really that high? Can they bully others at will, ignore the empire's laws, and no one will criticize them for being wrong?"

Feng Ling glanced at her and said: "It has been like this for over 8,000 years since the establishment of interstellar history."

Luo Bi fell silent. She had always found the Contract Master circle too complicated, with too much intrigue and power struggles. She also disliked how revealing their clothes were. There were too many things she found objectionable, which was why she had hidden her awakening.

But after facing Luo Yan's arrogant attitude today, she changed her mind. She had hidden it for so many years; it was time to test her awakened abilities.

"Take me to the testing center," Luo Bi said.

"The testing center?" Feng Ling was puzzled.

"Yes, I want to test if I have awakened."

Feng Ling didn't say anything. No one would bring up awakening without a reason, especially since Luo Bi had already passed the age of awakening and hadn't taken any awakening potions. Clearly, this trip to the testing center was unusual.

Despite his many questions, Feng Ling drove straight to the testing center.

The testing center was located in the city center. The testing methods were simple, but the procedures were complex. It mainly included strong gene testing, soul source power testing, and mental power testing, followed by attribute testing, physical testing, and so on...
