On the way to becoming the strongest, I first became a popular person.

At the door of the rest compartment, the three of them stood there in a stalemate, and the atmosphere was somewhat solemn.

Luo Yanchi's gaze moved secretly between the two of them. The Ling family had the habit of making contracts with other families, and it was no secret in the circle. This generation's heir Ling Fei had not decided on a contract partner for a long time, but he did not expect to decide on one so hastily and suddenly today.

So, were they discussing something related to the contract just now? But it had been a little too long, so he lowered his eyes slightly to hide his expression.

"Don't make blind guesses. I was just helping her deal with some troubles, which took me some time." Ling Fei's lips curled up with a mocking smile. She knew this guy's character. He liked to speculate about others and had eight hundred thoughts in his mind.

She folded her hands in front of her chest, raised her head high, looked at Luo Yanchi with disdain, and said sarcastically: "It's just a trouble that might attract a disgusting guy like you."

Attracting trouble to yourself? Luo Yanchi subconsciously followed Ling Fei's words and thought about it. His eyes fell on Shi Chu and suddenly noticed that the strange fragrance on her body that made people want to get close to her disappeared.

So they spent so much time dealing with the smell? That makes sense. The smell was so strange and special, it must have been very troublesome to deal with, so it was normal that it took so long.

He put aside his suspicion, put on an elegant and appropriate smile, and looked at Ling Fei calmly. He was not angry at the sarcasm in her words.

Ling Fei secretly observed his expression and movements, and seeing him behave like this, she knew that the other party had dispelled his doubts.

She put her arm around Shichu's shoulders in an intimate manner, half of her body hanging on him, and said to Luo Yanchi bluntly: "If the fact that she is my contracted person is leaked from you, the Ling family will come after your Luo family."

The matter of the contract partner was the first bait she threw out. She first used the bombshell news to shake the other party's mind, and then threw out the second bait of fragrance. This two-pronged approach was enough to dispel his suspicion.

Although many people in the circle know that the Ling family has the tradition of having contractors, the identities of the contractors and the families behind them are all secret. Unless both parties make it public, few people know the exact news and can only guess secretly.

The reason why she took the initiative to mention it to Luo Yanchi was because Shi Chu told her that the Luo family and the Dongfang family had recently reached a cooperation on a major project. She had heard some rumors about this before, but she didn't expect it to happen so soon.

For now, in the short term, we are all in the same boat, so there is no need to worry about him stabbing us in the back.

The Ling family and the Dongfang family signed a contract. As a partner of the Dongfang family, his Luo family would naturally receive some invisible preferential treatment. Now the three families are secretly tied together. Although Luo Yanchi is annoying, there is nothing wrong with his brain. He definitely doesn't need to be taught the principle of making a fortune in silence.

The reason why she warned him like that was to tell him that behind Shi Chu now stood not only the Dongfang family but also her Ling family, so that he could be less petty and be more honest.

This guy would secretly trip people up if they weren't careful. It was disgusting. She had suffered a lot from him in the past.

She was young at the time and didn't know this guy's true colors. She was tricked by him and cheated countless times. Her parents even thought about letting him be their contractor. Fortunately, she dispelled their unreliable ideas in time and then firmly held the right to choose the contractor in her own hands.

"Just wait here. I have something to say to her." Ling Fei said coldly and pulled Shi Chu inside.

Shi Chu was pulled by her and glanced at Luo Yanchi as he passed by. Although the other person was smiling, the smile did not reach his eyes, which were full of indifference.

She silently retracted her gaze, secretly cheering in her heart. It was so satisfying to see him being scolded by Sister Ling Fei, this guy deserved it.

Although she has been accepted as the teacher's last disciple, the formal process has not yet been completed. On the surface, she is still an ordinary beta. No matter how much the Dongfang family supports her, she is just an outsider. Her identity is there, and she cannot be compared with the heirs of the seven major families.

As Luo Yanchi was the heir of the Luo family, she certainly couldn't openly give him the cold shoulder and deliberately embarrass him. But Ling Fei could, as they were also heirs of the seven major families, everyone had the same status and was on an equal footing, so there was no need to worry about anything.

Ling Fei brought Shi Chu to the office, asked Shi Chu to wait for a while, and turned to walk to another room.

Shi Chu looked around the place boredly. It was not quite accurate to call it an office, as there were many rooms with colorful plants and various high-end instruments that she could not understand.

She turned around a few times and saw Ling Fei coming out of the room with a light blue potion in her hand.

"Here, this is the potion that covers your eye color. It's made by Ling Fei. It's safe and harmless." Ling Fei handed the thing to her, fiddled with her long red curly hair, and joked with a smile.

"Thank you, Sister Ling Fei." Shi Chu opened the cork quickly and drank it in one gulp.

"Um--" She suddenly covered her mouth and swallowed the medicine with difficulty. She looked at Ling Fei pitifully, her eyes couldn't help but squint, the corners of her eyes turned slightly red, and saline solution seeped out.

So sour, why is it so sour, her teeth.

Ling Fei showed a malicious smile, pinched her face with both hands, and laughed: "It's safe and harmless, I didn't say it tastes good."

She raised her hand and gently wiped away the tears that seeped from the corners of Shi Chu's eyes, touched his head, took out a large box of various medicines from the space bracelet and stuffed it into Shi Chu's arms.

"As an apology, I'll give you these potions. You also have a space bracelet. All you need is your mental power to recognize it as your master. Now that you have awakened your mental power, you can use it. Keep the things." She put her hand on Shi Chu's shoulder and looked at him with a smile.

Shi Chu tried hard to control herself from making a grimacing expression, and her facial expression was a little distorted. She was so sour that she couldn't speak. She held a large box of medicine in her arms blankly and took a quick look. There were mental power supplements, odor masking agents, and some other medicines.

She followed Ling Fei's instructions, quickly used her mental power to identify the owner of the space bracelet on her hand, and put the things away.

"Here." Ling Fei took out a bottle of water and handed it to her.

Shi Chu took it, unscrewed the lid impatiently, and drank two big gulps.

"Hu——" She let out a long breath and finally came back to life.

How could Sister Ling Fei have such a bad taste in playing tricks on people? Her teeth, her image.
