Chapter 509: Chapter 509: That is the Protection Shield I Invented

Hearing Shi Yaoguang accurately lay out her scheming, Miao Jingjing’s heart immediately tensed up.

"You, what are you talking nonsense about?"

She even wanted to abandon her plan.

If Shi Yaoguang didn’t know what she wanted to do, then no one would find out about her actions.

But...

Her intentions had been discovered by Shi Yaoguang, and she didn’t believe that Shi Yaoguang would have no way to avoid them.

Knowing full well what she intended to do and still going along with it, Shi Yaoguang must be deceiving her!

In critical moments, Miao Jingjing’s mind could be sharp.

It’s just a pity it wasn’t applied in the right place.

Shi Yaoguang, facing her fear-filled expression, chuckled softly, "When you were scheming against me, weren’t you very bold?"

Miao Jingjing grew even more fearful.

In that instant, the feeling Shi Yaoguang gave her was like a demon from hell.

She was truly scared.

Miao Jingjing wanted to cry out for help, but her throat felt as if it were being choked, and she couldn’t open her mouth at all.

Shi Yaoguang looked at her and slowly extended his hand.

Miao Jingjing, terrified, clutched herself and stammered, "I know I was wrong, I know I was wrong, I shouldn’t have schemed against you, please spare me..."

Shi Yaoguang, as if he hadn’t heard her, clicked his tongue lightly, "You know, you are quite impressive."

Miao Jingjing was stunned, "What?"

"I think you have extraordinary courage," said Shi Yaoguang in praise.

Being praised, Miao Jingjing didn’t feel happy.

On the contrary, she felt even more fearful in her heart.

They say that when something is abnormal, there must be a hidden secret; Shi Yaoguang’s attitude made it difficult for her not to overthink.

As it turned out, her overthinking was justified.

Shi Yaoguang looked at her and sighed softly, "Don’t worry, I won’t do anything to you."

"I don’t..." Before she could utter the words "believe you," she heard Shi Yaoguang murmur in a gentle tone, "It’s important to follow through. Since you’ve already made a plan, I wouldn’t want to hold you back."

Miao Jingjing shook her head vigorously, "No, I don’t want the plan anymore..."

Ignoring her protests, Shi Yaoguang placed his hand on her shoulder.

Miao Jingjing was pushed down.

When Bei Ranran went upstairs, what she saw was Shi Yaoguang pushing Miao Jingjing.

The scene of Miao Jingjing falling from the floor-to-ceiling window.

For a moment, she was as if frozen in place.

Shi Yaoguang withdrew his hand, looking in the direction of Bei Ranran.

Bei Ranran’s first instinct was to run away.

But her legs felt as if they were filled with lead; no matter how hard she tried, they wouldn’t move.

When she met Shi Yaoguang’s calm gaze, a chill rose from the bottom of her heart.

"Bei Ranran," Shi Yaoguang called her name.

Bei Ranran replied with a trembling voice, "I, I’m here..."

Having said that, she continued, "It wasn’t on purpose, I didn’t see anything."

"I haven’t even asked, yet you’re confessing everything?" Shi Yaoguang chuckled softly and walked toward her.

Bei Ranran’s heart instantly plummeted into an abyss, "I, I, I..."

But Shi Yaoguang paid no attention to her as he walked downstairs at a leisurely pace.

Bei Ranran, feeling like she had miraculously escaped disaster, was still somewhat in a daze.

She...

Was safe?

Bei Ranran, looking at Shi Yaoguang’s retreating figure in disbelief, couldn’t help but ask, "Aren’t you going to kill me to silence me?"

"Pff." Shi Yaoguang laughed as if she had done him a favor, "Where’s there someone like you who, after witnessing a murder, doesn’t run away, but instead reminds me to silence them?"

Bei Ranran wore a mournful expression, cursing her own lips a thousand times in her heart.

So stupid.

How could she be so stupid!

Wuu wuu wuu, could it be that the goddess might turn around and silence her?

Bei Ranran thought miserably that if she died, would she be dismembered by the goddess, or even worse, thrown to the dogs?

Bei Ranran thought of many things but forgot one.

If Shi Yaoguang was to kill someone to silence them, then most people would need to be silenced.

At least half of the people in the training camp would be gone.

Seeing that she was truly frightened, Shi Yaoguang stopped teasing her and immediately explained, "Don’t panic, many people saw me push her, you won’t be silenced."

Hearing this, Bei Ranran breathed a sigh of relief.

Then, she began to worry about Shi Yaoguang.

"Then, Goddess, won’t you be in trouble?"

Shi Yaoguang deliberately put on a sorrowful expression, "I don’t know, if someone is willing to talk back for me, perhaps I’ll be fine, but..."

Bei Ranran blurted out, "I’m willing!"

After speaking, she felt foolish again.

Why did she say that? Wuu wuu wuu, what if she was really pushed out to be the scapegoat?

While her mind was full of various captions, Shi Yaoguang spoke again, "You’re really amusing."

Bei Ranran looked at her with a face of grief and eyes full of grievance.

"At a time like this, you’re still joking, Goddess!"

Shi Yaoguang appeared unconcerned, "What time is it that I can’t make a joke?"

Bei Ranran reminded her, "Miao Jingjing was just pushed down by you! If something happens to her, won’t that be the end of you?"

No sooner had she finished speaking, she saw a transparent ball floating up beside the floor-to-ceiling windows.

The transparent ball was large, and Bei Ranran was initially surprised, wondering who was playing with a ball in the training camp.

Then, she saw Miao Jingjing sitting inside the transparent ball, her face a picture of relief, looking incredulous.

Bei Ranran: "..."

Shock.

Through the transparent ball, locking eyes with Miao Jingjing, a rare unanimity appeared in both their eyes.

It took quite a while for Bei Ranran to find her voice again, "Goddess...what is going on here?"

Shi Yaoguang casually said, "Miao Jingjing said she wanted to be friends with me, and I didn’t agree."

Bei Ranran caught on, "You refused to be friends with her, and then you pushed her down?"

"Yeah," Shi Yaoguang said, sounding very matter-of-fact.

Bei Ranran: "..."

The Goddess really is unpredictable.

As she was pondering, she heard Shi Yaoguang say emotionlessly, "I refused to be friends with her, but she was persistent. She kept saying that I was better than her idol, and that her reason for not being my fan over Shi Yiqing was not because she thought I wasn’t good, but because she thought I was too good. She felt that someone like her wasn’t even worthy to be my fan."

She spoke helplessly, "I tried to advise her, to tell her not to be infatuated with me, but she wouldn’t listen."

"I had no choice but to give her a chance to make amends through an act of redemption."

Bei Ranran untangled the logic, then said, "The chance you gave her... was to jump from the third floor to prove her sincerity?"

Shi Yaoguang nodded, "Exactly."

Bei Ranran pointed vaguely at the still-hovering transparent ball and asked, "Then... what’s with that ball?"

Shi Yaoguang explained calmly, "That’s the Protection Shield I invented."

Bei Ranran: "???"

Protection Shield, isn’t that something from science fiction novels?

Can it really exist in reality?

But then again, after a second thought, she felt it wasn’t so strange.
