Bai Ruoshui looked at one of her subordinates in front of her, named Jin Hao, who was her most capable subordinate, and asked, "Is everyone ready to lurk?"
Jin Hao nodded, a little puzzled, and frowned: "President, the Cheng family has made a final attempt to spy on us. At this time, is it really appropriate for you to ask everyone to lurk? If they suddenly come to kill us, we
what to do?"
"It's not us, it's me. You can leave too." Bai Ruoshui said calmly.
"What? I'm leaving too?" Jin Hao's face changed drastically: "President, I won't leave, I want to live and die with you."
Jin Hao himself is also in the early stage of the Soul-Connecting Realm. Although his strength is not as good as Bai Ruoshui's, he is still considered a master, and he is one of the few in the Zhuxian Association who is in the Soul-Connecting Realm. Otherwise, he would not be able to become Bai Ruoshui's confidant.
He likes Bai Ruoshui, and naturally he doesn't want to leave the latter at this time.
Then am I still a man?
Bai Ruoshui's feelings for him have been clear for a long time, but she has never accepted it or revealed it. Today, for the first time, she revealed this layer of paper.
"I know, you like me."
ah?
Jin Hao suddenly felt a little restrained and didn't know what to do.
Bai Ruoshui continued: "However, I may let you down. I will not accept you. We can only be friends. If you insist on doing this, we can't even be friends, and you will no longer be my Zhuxian Club in the future."
people."
sweat……
"Ruoshui, I——"
"Call me like you used to."
"President——"
"Okay, I've made it clear enough. I can only say thank you for your thoughts, but I still have to refuse. The reason why I made my words clear today is because I don't want you to waste your time on me. You can go, I
I have my own plans. It will be good for me if you leave at this time. After this period of time, you will come back. Also, you must manage those properties well and never be robbed by the Cheng family!"
Bai Ruoshui said very coldly.
Jin Hao felt a little miserable in his heart and said: "You don't have to accept me. In fact, I also know that I am not worthy of you, so I have never mentioned it, and I have never thought about bringing it up, but I will always guard you.
, this is my decision, I hope you can respect it."
"Don't you understand what I mean?" Bai Ruoshui frowned: "I'll give you two choices, either you leave now and we will still be friends, or I will kick you out of the Zhuxian Club now, and we will
You are just strangers, this is normal time, I can’t let you take risks, and I can’t let you disrupt my position and plans. I naturally have the means to protect myself, so choose!"
Faced with Jin Hao's sincere dedication, Bai Ruoshui was naturally moved, but being moved and being liked are two different things.
A woman like her will never be easily tempted.
So far, no man has caught her eye.
Maybe Du Qingchen is one...
However, that is destined to be impossible.
Even though Du Qingchen now seemed to be in the True Yuan realm and extremely weak, in her heart, she had long since dared not underestimate him.
Even the city leader Jia Lingfeng was a little afraid of Du Qingchen, let alone her!
Jin Hao had no choice but to sigh and said: "Okay, then you have to take care of yourself. If anything happens, remember to call me. I, as well as all the brothers in our Zhuxian Society, are willing to live and die with you.
You are our president, and we are proud of you! If anything happens to you, the Zhuxian Society will be completely over, so please take care of yourself."
Waving his hand, Bai Ruoshui said: "Okay, okay, don't talk anymore, let's go quickly."
Jin Hao looked at her deeply and left with some reluctance.
In the entire manor, only Bai Ruoshui was left alone.
She was sitting in the living room reading a book, looking very relaxed.
At noon, she made some food for herself, and in the afternoon she continued reading.
But she was obviously not really reading. She had a bad feeling that someone would come today, someone from the Cheng family.
That's why she sent everyone away. There was no use in having too many people. That would only cause the brothers to be killed, and she was not prepared to escape or take off her clothes, because she had her own trump card.
She still has the talisman given to her by Du Qingchen.
If that doesn't work, just use magic talismans to fight against the enemy.
It's just that she will definitely not use this magic talisman easily. It is her trump card and a treasure given by Du Qingchen. The latter once told her that it is best not to use the magic talisman until life or death is at stake.
After reading for a while, Bai Ruoshui looked in the direction outside the door.
Then, someone came in.
The person who came in was a member of the Cheng family, but it was not Cheng Hua, but Cheng Hui.
This person rarely shows up, but his status in the Cheng family is very high, and his cultivation level is also very high.
In the late stage of the Divine Realm, it is indeed very powerful.
Cheng Hui came in and asked curiously: "Did you send everyone away?"
"That's right."
"You knew I was coming, so you were ready to wait here to die. You didn't want them to bury you with you, right? That's good. You are more responsible than many men."
Cheng Hui praised.
Bai Ruoshui glanced at Cheng Hui and said, "Tell me, what do you want from me?"
"Of course I'm here for those Xia family properties. I want to ask if you can hand over those properties to our Cheng family for management now. This is your last chance. If you agree, sign this agreement now.
"
After speaking, Cheng Hui threw an agreement in front of Bai Ruoshui.
Bai Ruoshui didn't even glance at the agreement and asked, "If I don't agree, are you going to kill me?"
"You are very smart, it is true. In fact, I know that you are unlikely to sign this agreement today. Otherwise, you will not dismiss all the people below you. But I am more curious, are you so unwilling?
If you cherish your life, are you really ready to die?"
"You want to kill me? Really want to kill me?"
Bai Ruoshui asked seriously.
"Of course it's true."
"Okay, let's kill him."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a whoosh, and a flying arrow shot out from nowhere, directly towards Cheng Hui's vest. The tip of the arrow was tempered with poison and shone with a green light. Moreover, the flying arrow came very fast.
Almost in the blink of an eye, he was behind Cheng Hui.
But at this moment, Cheng Hui's body disappeared from the spot and landed a few meters away.
The flying shot hit the far wall and sank directly into the wall, which shows how powerful it is.
But just as Cheng Hui stood still, an iron cage suddenly appeared above his head, trying to cover him inside.
His expression remained as usual, and his body disappeared in place again.
With a bang, the iron cage landed where he was standing before.
At this time, another hidden weapon was shot at him.
This time, Cheng Hui did not dodge. With a wave of his hand, a strong wind blew by and all the hidden weapons fell to the ground.
When he turned around, he found that Bai Ruoshui had actually rushed out of the villa.
Cheng Hui sneered: "Do you still want to escape today?"
He chased him out.
However, what he never expected was that just as he rushed out, Bai Ruoshui actually left and came back again, with a sword in his hand, and he stabbed at him with one sword. The sword and the man merged into one, as fast as the wind.
