After finally finishing the meal, Luo Bi was just about to leave when Luo Jie handed her a glass of juice and smiled at her.
Luo Bi didn’t move: “Thank you.” A regular glass of juice costs ten interstellar coins, and since they weren’t close, she had no reason to drink it for free.
Luo Jie didn’t mind whether Luo Bi drank it or not, and he smiled at her, saying, “Didn’t you refine medicine yesterday? Why didn’t I hear any noise?”
That question was too tactless. Luo Bi smiled and said, “I did, but it wasn’t successful. It was half-baked.”
Luo Jie was taken aback by her words and said teasingly, “Did you refine it today?” If it didn’t work yesterday, it should have exploded today, right? Luo Jie didn’t believe that someone like Luo Bi, who was considered a failure, could refine spiritual medicine.
This woman probably just relies on Feng Ling’s indulgence to cause trouble. Once she depletes all the interstellar coins Feng Ling has saved, she’ll settle down.
Luo Bi glanced at him: “Of course I will. I’m refining medicine this afternoon.” She originally planned to take a break for a couple of days, but since someone was looking forward to it, she might as well satisfy them.
Luo Jie, with his malicious intent, asked after finding out what he wanted to know, his eyes twinkling, “Do you know something? Hua Chen applied for three pieces of Bi Fei Stone for your cousin Luo Yan, and the military approved it the same day. Now, Hua Chen is on the Imperial Star with Luo Yan for the apprentice assessment. Feng Ling applied for you a long time ago, right? Why didn’t you go with them?”
Hua Chen was once Luo Bi’s fiancé, but he is now engaged to Luo Yan. This news has spread throughout the military base, and Luo Jie knows the inside story but still brings up matters related to those two in front of Luo Bi.
His intentions are clear.
Luo Bi’s expression turned cold: “I don’t want to go for now.”
Luo Jie was slightly surprised. He always thought Luo Bi married Feng Ling so quickly to enjoy the benefits of being a military family member. With the Bi Fei Stone already approved, why isn’t she going to the Imperial Star for the assessment? What is this woman up to?
He felt somewhat disdainful. Aren’t you clever? But in the end, your fiancé was taken by your cousin. Tsk, tsk, you deserve it.
Luo Bi had no interest in sitting down and got up with her plate: “I’ll be going now.”
“Drink the juice before you go.” Luo Jie called her back; he still had more to pry out!
“I just ate, I can’t drink anymore. Goodbye.” Luo Bi turned and left. Unnecessary kindness is either malicious or deceitful, and she had no interest in playing with Luo Jie.
Luo Jie pouted: “You sure are quick to run.” He took the juice and drank it himself. He had kindly bought her a glass of juice, the cheapest one, but she didn’t drink it. Fine, he’d drink it himself.
Lan Ze, leaning back in his chair, finally spoke: “Don’t underestimate her; she’s very cunning. My wife told me that this woman’s character is even worse than Zhang Hui and Qiu Qiu’s!”
Luo Jie nodded, agreeing. He took off a special communicator from his wrist and dialed a number, smiling mischievously: “Hua Chen doesn’t know about her marriage to Feng Ling yet. I’ll give him a heads-up.”
Luo Jie is the type who loves to stir up trouble.
Lan Ze shook his head but didn’t stop him. He was happy to cause some trouble for that woman, after all, she had incited Zhang Hui to bully his wife. This was payback with her own methods.
Luo Bi didn’t know about Luo Jie’s behind-the-scenes actions. After returning home, she took a half-hour nap before getting up to refine medicine. Driven by侥幸心理 (侥幸心理 means侥幸 psychology, which can be translated as "侥幸 mentality" or "侥幸 attitude"), after guiding the fire source, she used her mental power to enter the red jadeite stone again, just like yesterday. However, it was dark inside, with no patterns. To avoid destroying the red jadeite stone, she backed out.
When the explosion sound rang out again, Luo Jie was momentarily stunned, then laughed: “She really is refining medicine?” He thought Luo Bi was just saying it out of spite.
