Chapter 3

Luo Bi left, and Wu Yue and Jiang Zhu began to discuss the matters of Luo Bi's family. The pharmacy had few staff, and when they were working, their mouths were often idle, so gossiping about others became a daily routine.

Luo Bi was also such a person. Despite her usual close relationship with Jiang Zhu, if Jiang Zhu was not around, she would talk about Jiang Zhu behind her back, just as she often gossiped about Wu Yue with Jiang Zhu.

Luo Bi did not have the virtue of not gossiping about others, which some other穿越者 (time travelers) had. No matter who it was, if they were bored, she and Jiang Zhu, Wu Yue would all comment on them. In the small world of the Wu family pharmacy, no one could control their tongues.

Xiang Ming Pavilion was not far from the Wu family pharmacy. It took only five minutes to drive there.

Luo Bi entered Xiang Ming Pavilion and scanned the room with her eyes, spotting Hua Chen sitting by the window. She then walked over with a smile and sat down.

Hua Chen first glanced at Luo Bi, took a sip of tea, and said, "I have thought it over repeatedly. We are not suitable for each other, so let's dissolve the engagement."

"Huh?" Luo Bi initially thought she had misheard. She looked at the handsome man across from her with a puzzled expression, her smile fading. Her hearing was excellent, and she clearly heard what Hua Chen said.

However, the suddenness of the situation left her unprepared. She tilted her head, blinking repeatedly, trying to read any hints from the man's face. There had been no prior signs, and Hua Chen's sudden proposal to dissolve the engagement left her bewildered.

Hua Chen sipped his tea with a calm expression, showing no emotion, but the obvious distance made Luo Bi's mind clear. Regardless of the reason, it was clear that the other party wanted to break the engagement.

"Not suitable?" Luo Bi laughed mysteriously, twirling the teacup by its handle. Hua Chen was outstanding in appearance, a born lightning flame warrior, and his family background was decent. Luo Bi had always thought that when the time was right, they would naturally get married.

Who would have thought that Hua Chen would want to dissolve the engagement.

Clearly, something unexpected had happened on Hua Chen's side. She didn't believe the obvious excuse that they were not suitable, as they had been getting along well.

After a quick mental review, Luo Bi probed, "Can you tell me the real reason?"

Luo Bi guessed it might have something to do with Hua Ran's manic disorder. She had hidden the fact that she had awakened, and in everyone's eyes, she was just an ordinary person. However, Hua Chen was a born lightning flame warrior with strong genes, and they were not a good match. The main reason Luo Bi and Hua Chen had an engagement was because she had a brother with the most potential to become a born lightning flame warrior.

Hua Ran and Hua Chen were cousins in the Hua family. Due to certain reasons, Hua Ran was forced to leave the Hua family and only gradually stood out after joining the military on Zhihuang Star. The Hua family probably did not want to give up on a promising young member. When they learned that a branch of the Luo family on Zhihuang Star was interested in marrying into the local military, they tacitly allowed Hua Chen to marry into the Luo family.

Now that Hua Ran's strong genes were damaged, even if his life could be saved, he would likely be incapacitated. It was not surprising that the Hua family decided to dissolve the engagement.

Hua Chen looked at Luo Bi with a complex expression. Luo Bi couldn't read the meaning behind his gaze, but she heard him say, "You're overthinking it. We just aren't suitable. There's no other reason."

After all the time they had spent together, he wouldn't even tell her the truth. Luo Bi felt a bit annoyed, and her good feelings for him plummeted to the lowest point. Any lingering regret instantly vanished, and she laughed, "Alright then. If that's the case, let's dissolve the engagement."

Luo Bi was a time traveler and had no sense of belonging to this interstellar world. A fiancé was nothing to be too attached to. If the engagement was to be canceled, so be it. Who would care?
