Luobi sighed, recalling a few months ago, who would have thought that she and Feng Ling would have an engagement. The marriage was a marriage of convenience, but as long as the benefits remained, the engagement was generally unbreakable. She had no intention of going all the way with Feng Ling, so when he proposed cohabitation, she firmly rejected it.

Marriage? Even less possible.

Luobi had her own plans. The family arranged for her to temporarily defy, but it was uncertain what would happen later. Once she had a suitable opportunity, she would definitely dissolve the engagement. Her eyes narrowed slightly, but the current situation was indeed quite troublesome.

The more she thought about it, the more anxious she became. Luobi casually dismissed her worries and, as it was close to noon, she strolled to the vegetable patch at the back to pick vegetables for cooking. Nutritious vegetables were not easy to grow; the young sprouts in the three-tenths of an acre of land were thin-stemmed and yellow-leaved, sparse and scattered. She had to move to several places before she could gather a handful of vegetables.

No matter how poorly the young sprouts grew, they were still nutritious vegetables. But when paired with ordinary seasonings, the taste was astringent and truly not good.

In the afternoon, several groups of people rang the doorbell at Luobi's house. With no one answering, the visitors, perhaps in a bad mood, rang the doorbell persistently, taking a long time before they finally left.

Manager Wu Yue finally managed to get through to Luobi's communication device and asked, "Why aren't you at work today?"

Luobi was extremely depressed: "I'm being watched. I probably can't go to the pharmacy for a while."

"What happened?"

Luobi explained the situation. Wu Yue, coming from a prominent family, immediately understood the severity: "Your awakening has just been made public, and the situation isn't too bad yet. Quickly get your father and Hua Ran to come back. Without a Thunder Flame Warrior to protect you, if someone has ill intentions, it could be disastrous."

Wu Yue, perhaps thinking of something, hesitated for a moment and said, "If you really don't want to be a Contract Master's assistant, I suggest you find Feng Ling. He's a military man and a high-ranking officer. As long as he's willing to protect you, the current troubles won't be an issue."

Luobi was silent for a moment before saying, "Feng Ling wants me to marry him."

"Hmm?" Wu Yue was surprised for a moment but quickly understood: "If you marry him, the military will find a way to get you into the Contract Master Academy."

The high status and benefits of military personnel have always been envied. Wu Yue listed one by one the advantages of marrying an officer, but no matter how many benefits there were, Luobi didn't want to marry Feng Ling.

Actually, Feng Ling was excellent in every aspect. Without Qiu Qiu, marrying Feng Ling would be a match above her station. But the problem was that there had been a Qiu Qiu between her and Feng Ling, and that was an unchangeable fact.

Luobi had a severe case of psychological cleanliness. When Feng Ling and Qiu Qiu were dating, she had seen everything. Suddenly turning a friend's ex-boyfriend into her own husband, who could bear it?

But the situation was forcing her, and she had few people to turn to. Her father and Hua Ran didn't have the ability, and her grandfather did, but only if she agreed to be Luo Yan's assistant, which was absolutely impossible and out of the question.

As for Wu Yue? Luobi directly ruled him out. Wu Yue wasn't just an individual; he had the Wu family behind him. If the Wu family got involved, there would be conditions, and Luobi didn't want to agree to the Wu family's conditions.

Be a Contract Master's assistant? Hell no, she would never agree to it.

After that day, people came to Luobi's door every day to talk about the Contract Master assistant position. Luobi didn't dare to offend anyone and used delaying tactics to deal with them. Luo Fan and the people from the Executive Hall came to see Luobi several times. Luobi, who couldn't afford to offend anyone, repeatedly smiled and used evasive tactics until she politely saw them out.
