The Female CEO's Personal Bodyguard

Chapter 2609 We're all family here, how many Snow Spirit Ice Crystals will you give me?
Zhen Liuxue's eyes showed surprise: "How did you know about this? When Master told me about it, there was no one else around, and I begged her not to tell you..."

Qiu Wushuang sneered, "In your heart, I've always been an unreasonable and capricious little girl, so you do everything secretly on your own without ever telling me, right?"

Zhen Liuxue fell silent; clearly, that was indeed how she viewed Qiu Wushuang.

Naïve, willful, spoiled, never experienced setbacks, a hothouse flower...

Zhen Liuxue is like a sensible older sister, while Qiu Wushuang is like a willful younger sister. The older sister always tolerates the younger sister, but the younger sister never understands the older sister and even hates her sister's various actions.

Qiu Wushuang sneered: "I hate you, so I always target you. Because you feel that you have taken away my mother's love, you always feel indebted to me. You silently endure all my overstepping behaviors without getting angry or complaining. You think your mother doesn't know, but she knows everything!"

Zhen Liuxue suddenly looked up, her eyes wide with shock.

Master actually knew all of this?
Qiu Wushuang pointed at Zhen Liuxue and said angrily, "Do you know why I hate you? It's because you always give in to me unconditionally. She is my mother and your master. It's normal for her to value you, nurture you, and love you. You don't owe me anything, but why do you always act as if you owe me a lot, making me feel like a creditor who always puts up with me?"

"I hate it when you do this! I've done outrageous things time and time again, partly to win against you, but also hoping you'd get angry, scold me harshly, or even beat me up. But you haven't, not even once!"

Now it was Zhen Liuxue's turn to lose her composure, and a hint of unease appeared in her old eyes.

So that's what Qiu Wushuang was thinking all along?
No wonder she always provokes me and looks at me with such a complicated gaze.
Lin Chen watched this emotional drama unfold from the sidelines, with twists and turns, thoroughly enjoying it while also starting to feel uneasy.

Am I knowing too much?
Is it too late to leave now?

Qiu Wushuang angrily vented her emotions: "You left without a word back then, and haven't sent a single message since. If it weren't for the fact that your longevity lamp was still lit in the city, I would have thought you were dead!"

Zhen Liuxue's gaze was complicated: "I'm no longer a resident of Ice and Snow City. Do you still have my longevity lamp?"

Qiu Wushuang retorted sarcastically, "Yeah, I'll only know when you die so I can celebrate."

Zhen Liuxue sighed: "Alright, no matter what, that's how things are. You should guard your Ice and Snow City, and it would be best to close it off for hundreds of years. After hundreds of years, no matter what the outcome, this matter will definitely be settled."

Qiu Wushuang gritted her teeth and glared at Zhen Liuxue, her expression shifting before she finally sighed, "Is there anything I can do to help you?"

Zhen Liuxue's eyes lit up, then she decisively shook her head: "No need, your words are enough."

Qiu Wushuang's mood was in turmoil, and she didn't know what to say: "You came here just to tell me this?"

"Correct."

Zhen Liuxue nodded: "Consider this a farewell. This may be the last time we meet." Lin Chen, listening from behind, felt complicated. My god, you've made up your mind to die, ready to shake the Immortal Palace with your blood!

You're preparing to risk your life and die, and you're forcing me to get on the ship? Aren't you setting me up for failure?

What terrible luck!

It seems I need to make some preparations and arrangements in advance, so that if anything happens, I don't want to implicate my family.

Lin Chen settled down in Beihai. The location of Xianxian Island was known only to Yao Xiong and his wife; no one else knew it.

With Xianxian Island completely concealed and Lu Yao in charge, it's not only extremely difficult to be discovered, but even if there is real danger, with the escape route prepared in advance, they will definitely be able to escape safely.

We need to find an opportunity to give Yao Xiong a heads-up.

Who knows how things will develop in the future? In any case, it's better to be prepared.

Qiu Wushuang's expression was conflicted after hearing Zhen Liuxue's words.

If it were any other opponent, even a top-tier powerful family, Qiu Wushuang could have gathered all the experts of Ice and Snow City to openly avenge his mother. But that was the Lord of the Myriad Immortals Palace, the number one person in the Myriad Gods Immortal Realm!
With a single word from him, the entire Heaven and Earth of the Myriad Gods Immortal Realm will change!

No matter how strong Ice and Snow City is, can it withstand numerous powerful clans, or even a Quasi-Saint?
A hint of sympathy flashed in Zhen Liuxue's eyes, but it quickly turned cold and hard again.

She could choose not to tell Qiu Wushuang the truth, but she didn't want her to continue working for her mother's killer while feeling grateful; that would be the greatest insult to her mother!
She could compromise for the sake of Ice City, for the sake of her own survival, but she had to know the truth.

As for the pain and torment she endured, she was an adult, a city lord, and had matured, so she had to bear it!
Zhen Liuxue said calmly, "That's all I have to say. I'm leaving!"

Lin Chen suddenly spoke up: "Wait, Lord Qiu, I understand now. We're all on the same side. Since we're not outsiders, could you give me a few of your Ice and Snow City's specialty, Snow Spirit Ice Crystals?"

Zhen Liuxue turned to look at Lin Chen with a strange expression.

You've got some nerve, kid! People are trying to kill you, and you actually dare to ask for things!

Qiu Wushuang was already filled with resentment and had nowhere to vent it. Hearing Lin Chen speak, she was immediately enraged: "Shameless little thief, I've already shown you mercy by not killing you. How dare you brazenly ask for the Snow Spirit Ice Crystal? Do you really think I wouldn't dare to kill you?"
