Chapter 67: Chapter 67: Does the space want her to grow the herbs?

"Yes! Yes! I understand." Si Hanchu said and waited for the principal Feng to leave.

Si Hanchu watched as Principal Feng left the room, his anger simmering beneath the surface like a dormant volcano ready to erupt at any moment.

The audacity of that man, he thought, to come into their territory and dictate terms as if he were the ruler of the land.

Si Hanchu clenched his fists, his knuckles turning white with the intensity of his emotions.

"How dare this b*stard threaten me! Just wait! The day I will rise to power I won’t leave you."

Suddenly he remembered about Second Elder.

It was his incompetence that had led to this situation in the first place. If he had been more vigilant, if he had taken decisive action earlier, perhaps they wouldn’t be in this mess now.

Si Hanchu fixed his appearance and made his way toward the chair.

After sitting down and calming himself, he called his secretary,

"Go inform the Second Elder to come into my office."

As Si Hanchu waited for the Second Elder to arrive, he pondered over his next move.

He couldn’t afford to let Principal Feng’s warning go unheeded, but he also needed to handle the internal matters within the Si family.

The Second Elder entered the room, his expression unreadable as he greeted Si Hanchu respectfully.

"Second Elder, I have a message from Principal Feng," Si Hanchu began, his tone serious.

The Second Elder listened attentively as Si Hanchu relayed Principal Feng’s warning about keeping their distance from the "rich woman" supporting Si Kai.

For a moment there was silence in the study.

Suddenly Second Elder chuckled,

"Hanchu do you love that woman or is that woman your mistress? Why are you protecting her?"

Si Hanchu’s face darkened as he realized that the Second Elder was not going to take the situation seriously.

He clenched his fists, suppressing his rising anger.

"Second Elder, this is not a matter to be taken lightly. Principal Feng’s warning carries significant weight, and we cannot afford to disregard it," Si Hanchu said his voice firm with determination.

The Second Elder chuckled dismissively, waving his hand as if to brush off Si Hanchu’s concerns.

"Hanchu, you worry too much. We have our ways of handling these situations. Trust me, there’s nothing to be concerned about," the Second Elder replied nonchalantly.

Protected by Principal Feng? Why don’t you say that she is protected by the government?

Does Si Hanchu think that if he mentions Principal Feng’s name, then he, the Second Elder would back down?

How stupid.

He had already fetched an amazing price for that ’rich woman’, how he can he let her go?

Even if he wants to keep that ’rich woman’ safe, he shouldn’t lie to such an extent!

Does he think he can protect that ’rich woman’ from the miserable fate that she was going to experience?

Hehehe! He is so naive!

At the same time, he was relieved to know that Si Kai had died.

All he has to do now is to wait for his 2 subordinates to come back and acknowledge this news.

Today is the day they should be back, but they still came back!

They must be partying somewhere...or they might be busy doing the things he asked them to do.

A sly smile appeared on Second Elder’s face.

Si Hanchu didn’t even bother to argue with Second Elder, he took out the recording he had recorded and played it.

The Second Elder mocked Si Hanchu for being stupid.

Does he think that he will believe any recording played by him?

Poor Si Hanchu doesn’t know that Principal Feng’s voice can never be imitated, due to Principal Feng’s psychic element.

And since he knows Principal Feng’s real voice he won’t be deceived so easily.

However, the recording was played. The Second Elder was stunned and frightened...

This...isn’t this Principal Feng’s voice?

So he really came here and warned Si Hanchu.

Now Second Elder’s face turned pale and he was so frightened that he could barely speak.

"Si Hanchu, why didn’t you tell me about this earlier?" he stammered, his voice trembling with fear.

"Didn’t I do it now?" Si Hanchu asked with a serious expression.

Second Elder: "..." That seems to be the case.

"Second Elder all in it is better if you don’t mess that rich woman. Just ignore her, understood?" Si Hanchu asked.

"Hm."

"Good. You can leave now."

.....

Next Day.

Gu Jin arrived at school earlier and was surprised to find that the students were walking around freely.

Did they give up or did the young man leave?

Gu Jin could only dejectedly move toward her class.

During the entire day, Gu Jin kept on looking out but she didn’t find the young man.

Maybe he will come tomorrow.

Gu Jin consoled herself and heard the class teacher say,

"This year’s exam will involve you spending 2 nights in the forest, so prepare accordingly. There are still more than 4 months left."

Gu Jin raised an eyebrow. After 4 months, she would have spent 1 year in this world.

Time really flies fast!

There is only 1 and a half years remaining for the duel between her and Chu Hua.

Gu Jin bought the herbs once her lectures were over and entered her space.

Originally she should have done it 2 days ago, however, she was so mesmerized by that blue-eyed young man that she could hardly remember anything!

Gu Jin opened the book Ultimate Guide to Basic Alchemy and opened the basic apprentice-level pill.

The pill formula was relatively simple as she didn’t need to use any cauldron, she could simply crush them and mix them.

Gu Jin took out the herbs and just when she was about to pick one of the herbs, all the herbs suddenly shifted.

Then a magical scene appeared in front of her.

The herbs flew in one direction and suddenly planted themselves on the ground.

Gu Jin: "..." Were her eyes playing tricks or did she really see herbs flying?

She cautiously approached the herbs, examining them closely to see if they would react again.

To her surprise, the herbs remained still, as if nothing out of the ordinary had happened.

Gu Jin furrowed her brows, feeling a sense of unease creeping over her.

"Was that just my imagination?" she muttered to herself, unsure of what to make of the strange occurrence.

She tried to unroot the herb but to her surprise, she wasn’t able to too.

"What is happening?"

Suddenly Gu Jin had an idea.

Wait!

Does the space want her to grow the herbs?

But why?

Gu Jin could only temporarily put the matter aside and decided to buy another set of herbs the next day.

Anyway, it was cheap.

Gu Jin cultivated her elements, even though her mind was a bit distracted.

After dinner with Si Kai, Gu Jin turned to leave when suddenly Si Kai tugged at Gu Jin’s clothes.

Gu Jin looked at him with a confused expression.

"Sister, when you rescued me, did you find any handsome brother with blue eyes there?"

The first person who appeared in Gu Jin’s mind was the young man whom she had seen in her school.

Suppressing her urge to think about him, Gu Jin shook her head.

"Strange! How can he be not there? I clearly remember him saving me!" Si Kai muttered.

To not hurt or refresh Si Kai’s pain, Gu Jin didn’t dare to ask what had happened in the forest.

Now that Si Kai was taking the lead, Gu Jin asked,

"Kai had what happened there?"

Si Kai told everything to Gu Jin. At first, he was very afraid but later when he thought about how he was going to stay in Gu Jin’s space from now on Si Kai felt a strange sense of security.

He told everything to Gu Jin and concluded,

"Not only that young man was handsome, he was from a wealthy family as well. Not to mention he was very powerful too!"

Si Kai nodded his head as if he was very satisfied.

Gu Jin: "..." Was that the only thing he could focus on?

Gu Jin patted Si Kai’s head and said,

"Don’t worry, sister will take revenge on your behalf."

Si Kai couldn’t help but smile.

"By the way your resources from the last time have been finished right? I will buy more resources for you later."

Si Kai shook his head and said

"Don’t rush. I am still trying to consolidate the energy I absorbed from a previous time."

Gu Jin knew that Si Kai was saying to make her not worry.

Chuckling Gu Jin said,

"Don’t worry I have money now. Soon I will start a business of my own and then we will be rich!"

Si Kai looked at the sky.

"What happened." Gu Jin saw him looking at the sky for a long time and was instantly curious.

"Sister it is not night yet, right?"

"Yes."

"So why are you dreaming?"

Gu Jin: "..." This brat is really irritating.
