Hearing Mingxi's words, Xiao Lu no longer pretended to be polite and eagerly took the potion, turning it over and over curiously.
Such a good item, of course, couldn't be used by her own pet now.
She would wait until it had been tested.
Mingxi wasn't annoyed by Xiao Lu's actions; she had offered compensation herself, so any reaction from the other party was reasonable, and there was no need to be sentimental.
She looked at Little Silver Flower, who was sitting upright, and said, "Rui Ye, you made a mistake and caused me to lose a C-grade potion. I'm docking your snacks for a week when we get back. Do you have any objections?"
Xiao Lu, who was listening, suddenly clutched the potion tightly in her hand.
Her eyes were wide.
It was actually a C-grade potion!
This girl was so generous, giving away a precious C-grade potion just to apologize?
How many star coins would that be?
She swallowed hard, even wanting to say, "How about letting your pet play with my pet again? Any way is fine, just don't kill it. I don't ask for much, just two or three more C-grade potions!"
Forget it.
She still had some integrity.
Xiao Lu secretly clenched her fist. If this girl was really Xuan Jie's sasaeng fan and had angered Xuan Jie, she would help her speak up later.
Little Silver Flower, on the other hand, made a long face and responded listlessly.
It had lost big time.
Its older sister only lost a broken C-grade potion, but it lost its love... bah, it lost a week's worth of snacks!
C-grade potions were already obsolete in their home; that Jade Dew Liquid was what Emerald Green usually used for rinsing its mouth!
Could it compare to its week's worth of snacks?
Older sister was bullying Silver too much!
But it couldn't refute; it still knew what was important. The fact that C-grade potions were used as mouthwash was something their family knew, but saying it outside would cause trouble for its older sister.
Moreover, it also knew that its older sister was telling it not to casually provoke other people's pets.
Sigh.
ε = (´ ο ` *)))
It was too difficult.
Next time, it would never poke other beasts' faces again. Poking Black Pearl, that silly sweet Black Pearl, would be more cost-effective!
"Comrade Yan, what race is your Angel System pet? I've never seen one before."
Because of a mouthwash, no, a C-grade Jade Dew Liquid, Xiao Lu's attitude towards Mingxi had improved significantly.
"It's Punishment Angel Reinckortra, a Transcendent creature unique to Blue Star. It's quite rare, so it's normal that you haven't seen it."
From Blue Star?
Xiao Lu looked at her in surprise.
"You're from Blue Star?" She suddenly looked down at Mingxi's fingers.
The girl's fingers were long and clean, her fingertips neatly trimmed, and her fingernails were round, white, and tender, like pieces of fine jade.
There were only very faint lines, almost invisible unless one looked closely.
This indicated that she hadn't been on Green Field Star for long, probably not more than two months!
"You wouldn't happen to be a new Junior at Immortal University this year, would you?"
Mingxi naturally noticed her action of looking down at her fingers. The environment on Green Field Star was truly... the best advertisement for its local population.
"Yes."
Fortunately, Mingxi also had no need to deny it.
Xiao Lu opened her mouth, showing an expression of wanting to speak but hesitating.
Soon, they finally arrived at their destination. Xiao Lu led Mingxi into a large mansion where a historical drama called "《spring flowers and autumn fruits》" was being filmed.
Her task target seemed to be an actor in this crew.
"Xiao Lu, who is this unfamiliar older sister next to you? Has Xuan Ting Jie finally decided to hire a Substitute?" freewёbnoνel.com
"No way, this girl's figure and face shape don't resemble Xuan Jie at all."
Noticing Xiao Lu, a group of young girls swarmed over, staring at Mingxi, looking her up, down, left, and right.
"Actually, I [N O V E L I G H T] think Yue Yue would be great as a Substitute for Xuan Ting. Not only is her figure similar, but her profile also resembles her a lot. The director and assistant director are also very satisfied with our Yue Yue. I don't know why Xuan Ting insists on filming herself?
She also makes our entire crew worried and affects the filming!
Zhenyue Ge, Aizi Jie, and the others aren't as difficult as her.
Now she even found a Substitute who doesn't resemble her at all. Isn't this redundant?"
Xiao Lu's path was blocked by these people, and her face instantly darkened.
"Get out of the way, it's none of your business."
Mingxi could feel the malice from this group of people, especially the girl named Yue Yue. Her gaze was like daggers piercing into her, as if she had stolen her chance to soar.
The saying that a gaze can flay a person is truly not false. freewebnσvel.cѳm
It was quite frightening.
However, through the gossip of the surrounding people, Mingxi roughly deduced the situation of her task today.
The task giver, Xuan Ting, should have a physical problem, such as a facial injury or a distorted figure, which couldn't be healed in a short time. But she was unwilling to find a Substitute, so she had to find a pet that could modify and cover the scars to help?
"Lord Yan, this way please! The second room on the left is Xuan Jie's lounge."
Because of these people's mockery, Xiao Lu's attitude towards Mingxi became even more friendly. She even deliberately called her 'Lord Yan,' to tell others that she was not a Substitute.
Mingxi nodded expressionlessly.
She followed her towards the lounge, leaving behind a group of curious people.
"Who exactly is that girl? Lord Yan? Who can be called 'Lord'?"
"Did you notice the Angel System pet on her shoulder? It looks so magnificent and beautiful! Even better looking than Zhenyue Ge's Anluth!
Do you think she was brought by Xuan Ting to treat her injury?"
"Impossible. The police have already confirmed that it's not an injury; it can only be resolved by finding the culprit. The Angel System's healing skills are completely useless."
"..."
Keeping the whispers outside the door, Mingxi finally met her task target.
Of course, the other party also saw her.
Xuan Ting was originally sitting with her back to them in front of the mirror. After seeing Mingxi's reflection in the mirror, she suddenly stood up and turned around, looking at Mingxi in surprise,
"You are... Yan Luoxi Junior?"
Mingxi nodded. It seemed her performance during the new student assessment was indeed very prominent, as even a Junior from a regular academy recognized her.
"Hello, Senior Xuan. I am Yan Luoxi."
Xuan Ting had a strange expression, scrutinizing her for several moments before hesitantly speaking:
"So you accepted my task, do you really have a pet that can meet the task's requirements?"
These past few days, her mood had been like being fried and roasted.
She had worked so hard, used so many connections and favors, and finally managed to secure the role of Qiu Shi, which would definitely make her a huge hit.
However, because she attended a banquet organized by the director, she, along with the male and female leads, inexplicably fell victim to such a vicious skill, and half of her face turned into a skeletal appearance!
It couldn't be removed, and it couldn't be touched!
She could only wait for the Special Management Bureau to catch the culprit.
But the crew couldn't wait for them.
Fortunately, the reason the three of them became like this was ultimately due to the banquet organized by the director, so he bore a great responsibility for what happened, which was why he didn't replace all of them.
