Jiang Zhu laughed as Luo Bi mercilessly suppressed her nature. Luo Bi was straightforward and usually spoke and acted directly, and Jiang Zhu was already used to it: "You still don't believe me? I'm speaking from the heart."
"Don't give me that. How much does righteousness and loyalty cost per pound in interstellar currency?" Luo Bi sneered, "Don't put such vague and lofty hats on me, or you might fool me into being stupid. I don't want to be a righteous and loyal person."
She then said with a hateful tone: "Righteousness and loyalty require sacrifice. I won't give a single eyelash to anyone, let alone sacrifice myself. I'd rather die."
"You! Your temper." Luo Bi could sometimes be very cold-blooded, and Jiang Zhu really believed it. Shaking her head, she began to worry about the Luo family: "Hua Ran's condition can be saved with a third-grade spirit medicine, but it's expensive. Even if the Third Legion has it, they won't give it to someone who has been discarded. What a pity." Hua Ran was an S-grade strong gene innate thunder flame warrior, and to be destroyed like this...
Jiang Zhu was truly regretful: "Without a third-grade spirit medicine, he can only be kept alive with potions and low-grade spirit medicines. Even if you use all your savings, it will only be a drop in the bucket, and he won't survive in the end."
After saying all this, Jiang Zhu concluded: "You should keep your savings. There's no point in taking them out; they won't last long."
Even though Jiang Zhu admired Hua Ran, she prioritized reality. Spending money to prolong the life of someone who won't live long is a waste.
Luo Bi's hand paused, and she looked up at Jiang Zhu, wanting to say something but stopping. She wanted to tell Jiang Zhu that she had the ability to prolong Hua Ran's life. At that moment, she almost revealed her awakening, but her rationality prevailed, and the thought was quickly suppressed. She lowered her head and continued working.
Jiang Zhu, being slow to react, didn't notice Luo Bi's abnormality.
Wu Yue, after dismissing a group of guests, came to the studio, listened for a moment, and interjected: "I heard from Jiang Zhu that you plan to use your saved interstellar currency to buy Tranquility Powder? Hua Ran's strong genes are severely damaged. To treat him, he needs long-term nourishment with spirit medicines. Your interstellar currency won't make much of a difference, so I advise you not to waste it."
He paused and continued: "Hua Ran is your stepmother's son. It's not worth it to spend all your family's interstellar currency on him." He left it at that, knowing that saying more would be overkill.
Luo Bi sighed: "I understand the logic, but my stepmother wasn't chosen by my father; I chose her for him. Now that they are in our family, it wouldn't be right to ignore them when they are in trouble!"
"You..." Wu Yue was frustrated: "You seem smart most of the time, but why are you so confused now? If you spend all your family's interstellar currency on Tranquility Powder, how will you live in the future? Will you drink the northwestern wind?"
Luo Bi fell silent. Drinking the northwestern wind was not a concern; with her awakened abilities, supporting the entire family was not a problem, and she could even save Hua Ran's life. However, Luo Bi didn't want others to know about her awakening and had deliberately hidden it for years. She didn't want to reveal it unless absolutely necessary.
While lost in thought, her terminal beeped. She looked at her wrist and saw it was her fiancé, Hua Chen, inviting her to meet at the Fragrant Pavilion, which belonged to the thunder flame warriors.
Luo Bi and Hua Chen were part of a family alliance and rarely met. After ending the call, Luo Bi was puzzled; Hua Chen had never invited her at this time before.
Wu Yue was easy to talk to. Hearing that Hua Chen had invited Luo Bi, he readily agreed: "Go quickly and come back soon."
