Rebirth in the Spirit World, the Goddess's Brilliant Counterattack
Chapter 142 The Shadow of the Redmayne Family
In front of the academy gate, Chen Zhirun warned her in a solemn tone, "Be careful. If you encounter any abnormality, contact me immediately using the teleportation talisman."
"Well, don't worry, I will come back safe and sound." Li Li promised solemnly.
"Okay, we'll set off first." They waved goodbye to her.
After watching her friends leave on their broomsticks, Li Li turned on the magic communicator and was about to summon a flying carpet to go to the hotel when the phone rang. The caller ID showed Jiangnan. A smile appeared on her lips inadvertently.
Li Li glanced at the stars in the night sky, thinking that it should be almost midnight in China. She frowned and answered the call, "Hello? Are you studying magic circles late at night again?"
"No, I'm not busy." Jiangnan's voice was full of joy.
"Huh?" Li Li asked puzzledly.
"I came specially to congratulate you on your victory. Do you want to celebrate with us under the Jiang Jian star?"
"Okay, wait for me to get back." Li Li agreed happily.
Jiang Nan chuckled, "No need to wait."
"Huh? What do you mean?" Li Li was puzzled.
"Look back."
Li Li widened her eyes and turned around quickly, only to see a magician in a black robe and with a cold and noble temperament leaning against the door frame of the flying carriage, looking at her with a smile and waving at her.
Li Li was shocked and took a few steps closer, but still felt it was a little unreal. She reached out and touched him gently, as if to confirm his existence.
Seeing her rare innocent behavior, Jiangnan couldn't help but touch her head gently.
"Are you sure now?"
Li Li agreed dully, "Confirmed."
"No, how come you are here?" She still couldn't believe it when the person who was thousands of miles away just a moment ago suddenly appeared.
"I came here to sign a magic contract. I knew you were taking an exam, so I didn't disturb you." Jiang Nan took the magic scroll from her hand and said, "Get in the car first."
"Ok."
Jiang Nan did not ask her destination, but Li Li observed his flight path through the magic map and was surprised, "How do you know where I'm going?"
"You brought your luggage, so you must have gone to a hotel. With your personality, you wouldn't choose a place that's too far away. There are only three large magic hotels nearby, and one of them is famous for its magic banquets. You'll probably choose that one."
Li Li was surprised. "Just because of these? Are you so sure?"
"Of course not." Jiangnan denied with a smile, "I'm sure it's because I own that hotel."
"..."
Li Li glanced at him sideways. She had booked the famous magic hotel chain in the Luguo Kingdom, but she didn't expect it to be his business. This man's magic business empire has expanded too widely.
"As expected, you are Mr. Jiang Wu." Li Li teased.
Jiangnan frowned and corrected her seriously, "Don't call me that." Such a title always made him feel that there seemed to be an extra gap of years between him and her.
"Okay, okay." Li Li laughed and turned to admire the magical starry sky outside the window.
Jiangnan accompanied Li Li to put away the luggage, and then they went to the open-air restaurant on the top floor of the hotel for dinner. Under the starry glass roof, the twinkling magic lights were like stars, overlooking the whole city, and the magical city in the night was in full view.
The restaurant was quiet and empty, with no one disturbing it.
The waiter presented the menu, and Li Li smiled and said, "No wonder the magical cuisine here tastes so authentic, it turns out the boss is a Chinese wizard."
"I rarely ask about the affairs here. They are all managed by my subordinates."
Lilia opened the magic menu and said, "Would you like to try this magic wine? The unique magic power contained in this wine is quite fascinating." It was her favorite magic flavor.
Yarman remained silent and stared at her, "Are you sure you want to?"
Lilia's expression changed slightly, and she instantly recalled the strange encounter that night. She then closed the menu and said, "Forget it. I can't miss the magic class tomorrow morning."
Alman couldn't suppress his smile and chuckled to the side, but Lilia pretended not to notice.
In another corner of the restaurant, Jonas and Jason watched the two people chatting and laughing from afar.
"Third brother?" Jason looked at the tenderness on Alman's face and was surprised as if he had seen a ghost. "Is this still the majestic Fifth Lord?" He suspected that the Fifth Lord was possessed by a mysterious power.
"What's this?" Jonas said, as if he was used to it. "You haven't seen anything more bizarre."
"Anything else? Tell me quickly!" Jason was very interested. How could Wu Jue have changed so much after not seeing him for a few months?
Jonas counted on his fingers and listed, "Have you ever seen the Five Lords spend a huge amount of magic stones and add a price just to buy a magic dress to give to someone? Have you ever seen the Five Lords travel through the snow just to buy a magic birthday cake? Have you ever seen the Five Lords put aside their work to watch someone's magic show and give flowers after it? Have you ever seen the Five Lords complete all their tasks ahead of time just to have dinner with someone now?"
The series of questions left Jason dumbfounded. He couldn’t even imagine it, let alone witness it with his own eyes!
"You mean, this Miss Lilia is our sister-in-law!" Jason finally came back to his senses, his voice full of excitement.
"It's still early. Miss Lilia is still studying at the Magic Academy. Wu Jue, he is secretly in love with her." Jonas couldn't help laughing when he thought about Wu Jue asking him to find a wizard to customize magic skin care products.
Sure enough, no matter how strong a man is, he will become anxious and worried when facing love.
"Is there anyone who would refuse the favor of the Fifth Lord?" Jason couldn't believe it. The noble girls in Kyoto dreamed of getting close to the Fifth Lord, but there were still people who were indifferent to him?
"If Miss Lilia is really like those women, maybe Wu Jue wouldn't be interested in her." Jonas has been with Wu Jue the longest and has a keen insight. "Wu Jue has someone he loves in his heart, which is also good."
Jason was silent for a moment, then he smiled, with a hint of mixed feelings in his smile, "Yeah, that's good."
"How does this magic fish taste?" asked Alman.
Lilya tasted the fish that Alman had brought her, her eyes lit up, "It's delicious." Then she tilted her head slightly to savor it, "But I think its magical aura seems to be somewhat similar to that of the blue grass."
"Maybe it's because they share the same magical source." Alman teased her deliberately.
"..."
"Don't make me jealous of your magical wealth." Lillia narrowed her eyes.
"Haha." Alman laughed loudly.
The two chatted casually without having to deliberately find topics to talk about, and the atmosphere was not awkward.
The wind outside the window gradually grew stronger, blowing in through the window, bringing a hint of chill. Lilia subconsciously tightened her clothes.
Upon seeing this, Alman immediately stood up, took off his black magic robe, and gently draped it over Lilia's shoulders.
"Hurry up and eat, and then go back to your room to rest early. You have worked hard these days."
"Um……"
The cold magical scent of cedar surrounded Lilya. She was a little dazed. She stroked her hair uncomfortably and lowered her head to hide the subtle changes in her heart.
The atmosphere changed subtly, and neither of them spoke. Lilia quickly finished her meal and said, "Let's go."
"very good."
Lilia's boudoir was located opposite Zhannan's. After returning the clothes, she whispered a good night blessing before closing the door.
"Good night." Zhan Nan said in a deep voice, gently touching her forehead.
A hot ripple spread from the top of her head, making her feel uncomfortable all over, and she quickly closed the door.
Looking at the door that closed in an instant, Zhan Nan stroked the tip of his nose, turned around and walked into his own room.
On the other side of the wall, Lilya sat quietly on the carpet without turning on the lights, covering her face with her hands and closing her eyes.
Everything was over, and she seemed to...really have some special feelings for him.
"Lilia, you finally contacted me!" Nova's voice was filled with excitement. Since returning to his country, he has always been paying attention to her movements. He learned that she came to Ruigu Country, but considering that she was in the competition, he restrained himself from taking the initiative to find her.
Today, he finally received her call.
Lilia had just gotten up and washed up, holding the phone: "Since I have promised, I will keep my promise. Where is the patient you mentioned now?"
"I will send a servant to pick you up immediately, no, I will come myself." Nova was ecstatic and immediately prepared to set off.
“No need, just tell me the address and I can go there directly.”
Nova was silent for a moment. "My friend lives in a very secluded place, and I need to take you there."
Lilia raised her eyebrows slightly. It was so mysterious. It seemed that the identity of this patient was extraordinary.
"Then I'll meet you at the Golin Inn in Malton Lane."
“Okay, I’ll be right there.”
Nova arrived very quickly. Just as she finished packing, the phone rang and he was already waiting at the door of the hotel.
"Are you going out?" As soon as she walked out of the door, Zhan Nan's voice sounded behind her. She turned around and saw the man leaning against the door frame, staring at her with a smile.
After a night, Lilia had calmed down and looked natural. She did not hide anything, "There is a patient I need to visit."
Patient? Zhan Nan frowned, a little worried, "Do you need me to go with you?"
“Aren’t you busy with work?”
"No rush, everything has been completed." Zhan Nan replied calmly.
"Then let's go." It doesn't make much difference whether there are more or fewer people.
Jiang Jiu and Jiang Shi who stayed in the hotel faced a mountain of work. They looked at each other in dismay and doubted their lives. Was Master Wu just going to abandon them like this?
"Sir." Harry, Nova's driver and butler, looked at the impatient Nova and hesitated to speak.
"Um?"
"Is it proper for us to venture to see Mr. Jeffrey like this?"
Nova's tone was calm but firm. "There's nothing inappropriate about it. Jeffrey is my best friend. I can't let him be depressed like this any longer."
He didn't want to experience the feeling of powerlessness again when he saw Jeffrey's sad look and felt helpless. Regardless of whether Lilia could heal him or not, he would try.
Harry hesitated. "But Mr. Jeffrey...his last name is Redmayne."
Nova's face changed and he said sternly: "Don't mention this to Lilia later."
What the name Redmayne represents is that he doesn't want Lilia to be involved. She is just a doctor he invited, nothing more.
“People are coming, remember my words.”
“Yes, sir.”
Nova stepped off the magic carriage, greeted Li Li, gracefully performed a knight's salute, gently hugged her, and then separated, "Li, I am so happy to see you again!"
"I am also very happy to meet you again." Li Li responded.
"Who is this?" Nova turned his gaze to the man with extraordinary temperament beside Li Li.
"I am Jiangnan, a magician from the Emerald Forest." Jiangnan stretched out his hand and shook hands with Nova.
Li Li explained: "He is my friend, can you allow him to come with you?"
"This..." Nova hesitated for a moment, then smiled, "Of course you can, you are welcome to come with us."
