As soon as Shen Sixi finished speaking, everyone was very happy.

Shen Tu Rong: "That's great, Hei Mei, you're free now! You don't have to do those things anymore!"

Yu Chaodi recalled that when she was in Europe, it was Shen Sixi's actions that saved her life.

She was happy that Hei Mei had regained her freedom, and she also felt more grateful to Shen Sixi.

Xiaoqi also seemed relieved.

Black Rose's face was full of excited smiles, but she was very puzzled.

—Does this mean Shen Sixi believes her?

How can it be so easy?

Who would have thought that the legendary new Lord of the Temple of Angels would be such a dim-witted person?

Hei Mei had initially approached Shen Sixi out of curiosity, wanting to see what kind of person the new Temple Master of the Angel Palace, who had caused Qiao Xi such a great loss, was. However, she was now finding it rather boring.

The reason he stole Shen Tu Rong's bag was to test Shen Sixi's strength.

If Hei Mei hadn't been so easily subdued by Shen Sixi, she would have instantly lost interest in Shen Sixi.

Hei Mei now feels that Shen Sixi has the ability but not much intelligence.

It was all for nothing that she put on such a show.

The waiter brought more dishes, and the table was almost full.

Shen Sixi was hungry and too lazy to figure out what Hei Mei was thinking about her, so she picked up her utensils and ate by herself.

Shen Tu Rong was so excited that he forgot to eat.

She's about to join Shen Sixi in fighting against the Hall of Light!

The Temple of Light—that name sounds like a mysterious organization.

Without Shen Sixi, Shen Tu Rong would only feel fear in such a place, but with Shen Sixi around, Shen Tu Rong inexplicably felt at ease, and facing the Hall of Light gave him a sense of adventurous excitement.

Shen Tu Rong poured water for Shen Sixi and asked, "Sister Xi, how can we help Heimei? Will the people from the Hall of Light come after us? Should we take the initiative and teach the Hall of Light a lesson?"

Shen Sixi calmly drank her water.

"Need not."

Shen Sixi said nonchalantly, "They won't chase after us, and we don't need to take the initiative."

Shen Sixi: "Just do your thing."

Shen Tu Rong: "Huh?"

Shen Tu Rong: "But Hei Mei said that the people of the Hall of Light won't let her go. Shouldn't we be on guard?"

Shen Sixi: "No need to take precautions."

Shen Sixi picked up some food for herself without even looking up.

"Don't worry about it, go eat."

Shen Tu Rong was disappointed: "Oh, okay."

Shen Tu Rong didn't understand why Shen Sixi was so certain, but she didn't question it.

Shen Sixi must have her reasons for saying that!

Shen Tu Rong picked up a spoon and began to ladle out the soup, not forgetting to call out to Hei Mei: "Hei Mei, you should eat too, don't be shy, eat more!"

Hei Mei smiled slightly and agreed, picking up her chopsticks with a hint of awkwardness.

She ate her meal slowly, while casually observing Shen Sixi as she ate.

—Shen Sixi’s tone was a little strange when she spoke to Shen Tu Rong.

How could Shen Sixi be so sure that the people from the Hall of Light wouldn't come? She had described the Hall of Light as so dangerous.

Did Shen Sixi discover something?

If Shen Sixi had already discovered her identity, why didn't she point it out?

Hei Mei thought about it for a while, but couldn't figure it out, so she simply decided that Shen Sixi hadn't discovered her identity.

Hei Mei never imagined that not only was she interested in Shen Sixi, but Shen Sixi was also interested in her.

Shen Sixi was quite curious about why Hei Mei approached them and how she intended to act as their guide.

After dinner, the group finally headed home.

With one more person than one car could fit, Shen Sixi called an extra car.

Shen Sixi had Yu Chaodi, Shen Tu Rong, and Xiao Qi ride in one car, while she and Hei Mei rode in another.

Shen Tu Rong was a little reluctant and wanted to sit with Shen Sixi, but Shen Sixi did not agree.

Shen Sixi couldn't feel at ease putting Hei Mei alone with anyone, and she wasn't too comfortable putting Xiao Qi and Yu Chaodi together either.

Despite it being Shen Sixi's insistence on taking Xiao Qi away, she is still not entirely at ease with Xiao Qi.

It's one thing for her to want to take Xiaoqi away, but it's quite another for Xiaoqi herself to be so willing.

Why was Xiaoqi willing to go with her back then?

Although she saved Xiaoqi twice, Xiaoqi showed no gratitude towards her.

Shen Sixi always felt that there was something strange about Xiao Qi.

Perhaps because she already knew what Xiao Qi might do, even though Xiao Qi was still a teenager, she didn't think Xiao Qi was that innocent and always thought that Xiao Qi had ulterior motives.

With Shen Tu Rong watching over her, Shen Sixi felt more at ease. Yu Chaodi was timid, and Shen Sixi was afraid that Xiao Qi would hurt her.

……

Sitting in the car, Shen Sixi did not speak to Hei Mei.

Hei Mei couldn't help but observe Shen Sixi, who noticed but ignored her.

After a day of shopping, Shen Sixi was a little tired and closed her eyes to take a nap.

Hei Mei's eyes flashed, and she wanted to attack Shen Sixi.

Hei Mei harbored no ill will towards Shen Sixi. She was simply curious about Shen Sixi because she felt that her situation was similar to Shen Sixi's and that their paths to becoming palace masters were also similar.

Hei Mei moved her hand, about to act, when she suddenly felt a tingling sensation.

She opened her eyes wide and slowly lowered her head.

—A silver needle had somehow pierced the back of her right hand.

Hei Mei looked at the silver needle with suspicion, then at Shen Sixi.

Shen Sixi kept her eyes closed.

She pursed her lips, raised her left hand, and tried to remove the silver needle from the back of her right hand.

My left hand had barely moved when it froze again, followed by another wave of tingling.

Another silver needle pierced the back of her hand.

Hei Mei had no idea where Shen Sixi got the needle from or how she managed to pierce the back of her hand with such precision!

Hei Mei looked at Shen Sixi with surprise and doubt, and couldn't help but ask, "How did you do that?"

Shen Sixi opened her eyes, a flash of anger in them.

Do you know how annoying it is to disturb people's rest?

Shen Sixi said impatiently, "If you try anything again, you can get out of the car."

If this person continues to be so annoying, Shen Sixi will stop observing her and let her go back to where she came from!

Regardless of whether she is the Lord of the Temple of Light or anyone else, we must not disturb her rest.

Hei Mei's lips moved, but she dared not speak.

She still wanted to stay and continue observing Shen Sixi.

Her hands were frozen, and she didn't dare ask Shen Sixi when she could take the two silver needles away.

There was a moment of silence.

She thought Shen Sixi should have calmed down by now, and wanted to ask Shen Sixi when she would take the needle away.

Just as she was about to speak, Shen Sixi's phone rang twice.

Shen Sixi opened her eyes irritably and picked up her phone to look at it.

Hei Mei immediately shut her mouth, thinking to herself that it was fortunate she hadn't spoken yet.

Shen Sixi was unaware of Hei Mei's inner thoughts and didn't care.

She stared blankly at her phone, which displayed two unread messages.

She checked Xiaohua's text message first.

Xiao Hua: [The person who wants Shen Tu Mo's head has increased the commission again, urging us to act quickly.]

The other text message was sent to her by Shen Tu Rong.

Shen Tu Rong: [Sister Xi, my older brother has returned to the hotel.]
