Chapter 266: Chapter 270 Interstellar Female Anchor (17)

When Bo Xiaomi agreed to the plans, Qian Jin quickly arranged the trip.

However, on the day of departure, Bo Xiaomi’s face was completely dark, and she directly told Qian Jin that she was not going to go.

She didn’t have the mood to fool around now. After the Heart Value settlement last night, because the intake of Heart Value was insufficient, the system retracted several of her achievements.

Her face, once bright and dewy, now looked somewhat sallow, and her dark circles were particularly prominent, as if she had stayed up for several nights.

Bo Xiaomi almost hated Su Li to death because the entire audience of Star Network was redirected to Su Li’s live stream, leaving her own channel cold and deserted.

Without an audience, there would be no Heart Value. As the system increasingly consumed Heart Value, which she couldn’t supply enough of, the rewards she had once gotten from the system were also being retracted. It was a vicious cycle.

Bo Xiaomi was in a terrible mood, and her tone when talking to Qian Jin was not as tender as before.

Qian Jin’s cheerful face immediately darkened; he dug at his ear as if he had misheard, and asked again, "What did you say?"

Qian Jin’s demeanor at this moment didn’t resemble his usual appearance at all; a layer of gloom enveloped him.

Bo Xiaomi: "I don’t want to go anymore. You go back."

Though she was careful, her tone still carried an unintended casualness and disregard for Qian Jin.

She had reckoned that he would not fuss over it with her, unlike if it had been Yang Huai or Su Huaiyuan, especially Yang Huai.

Unexpectedly, as Bo Xiaomi turned to leave, Qian Jin reached out and stopped her.

"Backing out of something you promised isn’t very good, is it?"

Bo Xiaomi became more impatient amidst her vexation, "I said I don’t want to go."

Qian Jin: "This trip was something I carefully planned..."

Before he could finish, Bo Xiaomi interrupted him angrily, "Not going, not going, can’t you understand..."

Suddenly, pain erupted at the back of her head, and as she plunged into darkness, the last thing she saw were Qian Jin’s cold and deep eyes, within which seemed to freeze a person’s soul.

"Giving you face, and you don’t want it. I was still thinking of spending some effort to play with you..."

Play? Play what?

This was the last question in Bo Xiaomi’s mind.

Su Li noticed that it had been a long time since Bo Xiaomi’s live stream was active, but after thinking briefly, she put it aside.

Could it be that she was so daunted by her own beauty that she thought herself outmatched and couldn’t bear to host live streams anymore?

The more Su Li thought about it, the more she felt that this possibility was substantial. Not to mention others, there were other minor broadcasters on Star Network who explicitly said they no longer planned to stream due to lack of traffic and popularity.

As for Bo Xiaomi, Su Li had no intention of retaliating against her.

The fact that she was living exceedingly well now would suffice to make her choke, which was, in turn, more tormenting than direct action.

What was troubling her now was the constant barrage of messages from Su Shijun.

His unrelenting fatherly affection was really giving Su Li a headache.

The Intelligent Brain kept flashing brightly to signal incoming communications; from the look of it, Su Li suspected that he wouldn’t give up unless she connected.

Considering he was her biological father, who also exerted some effort in the judgment that saw the original owner jailed, Su Shijun didn’t pay as much attention to the original owner as he did to his superpower-enabled son, Su Huaiyuan, but he wasn’t entirely neglectful.

Su Li stretched out her hand and activated the Intelligent Brain, and Su Shijun’s full appearance appeared before her eyes.

Seeing his haggard appearance, he did not seem to be doing well.

Su Li knew very well why this had happened. After all, anyone who found out that the son they had raised for over twenty years was not their biological child would likely fly into a rage.

Su Shijun had been completely used by the wife he loved as a scapegoat.

"Father," Su Li called out in a cold tone.

Su Shijun looked at Su Li with a complex expression, a mix of annoyance and indifference in his eyes. His lips opened and closed several times as if he wanted to scold her, but he ultimately did not say anything.

He had his pride. Would he really tell her that she should not have let him know the truth? Or blame her for shattering his dream of a happy family?

"I have already agreed to a divorce with your mother, and you should not stay outside any longer. Come back immediately."

Su Shijun’s tone was harsh as he directly ordered, "A Federation admiral has visited me several times regarding the medicine. I have agreed to their terms, and once you return, you will hand over the formula. Do not forget you are also a member of the Federation."

Su Li remained silent; she could see that he was displacing his anger onto her.

Any sympathy she had felt for him immediately vanished.

Every pitiful person has their detestable side.

Seeing that Su Li remained silent for a long time, Su Shijun was not pleased.

He continued, "Regardless of what you know, Huai Yuan is still your brother."

He had raised his son with care for many years and ultimately found it too hard to let go.

He also had several considerations; the Su Family could not be without an heir.

"Even though you know he’s the person who stole your biological daughter’s superpower, you’re still willing to act as if nothing happened?"

Su Li looked at him earnestly.

Su Shijun avoidantly dodged his daughter’s gaze, annoyed and embarrassed, "You’ve awakened your superpower now as well, so don’t bring this up again."

"Alright, if that’s what you wish, I won’t bring it up again."

"But you might be disappointed, for I have no intention of coming back."

With those words, Su Li cut off the communication but instructed Lance to send a few bottles of medicine to Su Shijun.

It was a token of repayment for the scant fatherly love from the original owner, but that was all she could do; she didn’t want to do more.

Bo Xiaomi slowly regained consciousness, still in a daze, feeling a bit lost about where she was, but the continuous throbbing pain at the back of her head reminded her that what she had seen before falling unconscious was not her imagination.

Touching the small lump on the back of her head, Bo Xiaomi’s hand paused and her pupils rapidly constricted as she quickly looked around.

She was not in any familiar environment, with no doors or windows around, but the space was comfortably arranged. However, being in such a strange environment kept her from relaxing and enjoying it.

Recalling the last thing she heard was Qian Jin’s voice, even Bo Xiaomi, not the brightest, realized that her being here must definitely be connected to Qian Jin.

Bo Xiaomi tightened the clothes on her body and cried out loudly, "Qian Jin, Qian Jin, why are you doing this? Let me out..."

Despite Bo Xiaomi’s hoarse screaming, the surroundings remained eerily silent, with only her own echo to be heard.

Such an environment could maximize even the slightest bit of fear, and Bo Xiaomi, who was not strong-willed, acting strangely under collapse was only natural.

In a pitch-dark room, several glare-reducing screens displayed Bo Xiaomi’s every move from multiple angles.
