Chapter 1191: Jiaojiao, I Believe You

There was a protective shield created by Espers around the 117 building. It was very difficult for outsiders to discover what was happening inside. This was also why the other party could only investigate from the outside. As long as they deliberately hid, the other party would not easily know that they had returned.

“Alright, we’ll do as you say. Beitang Lie, I’ll leave this matter to you. Don’t mess it up,” Chi Jiao said.

Beitang Lie patted his chest confidently. “Boss, don’t worry! I’ll make the arrangements now.”

“Xu Ye, rest here. I’ll get someone to protect you 24/7. Don’t worry,” Chi Jiao said with a smile.

Xu Ye sat on the bed and said anxiously, “Jiaojiao, will Bai Wanxi’s consciousness suddenly appear? I’m a little worried.”

Chi Jiao saw how nervous he was, but she couldn’t bear to lie to him, so she could only tell the truth. “Xu Ye, I can’t tell you the answer for sure, but I can promise you that I will do my best to protect you.”

Xu Ye’s eyes lit up at her words. He immediately said, “Alright! Jiaojiao, I believe you.”

Just as Xu Ye was looking at Chi Jiao happily, Quan Jue inserted himself between the two of them with a cold expression. He glanced at Xu Ye from the corner of his eye and said, “Don’t just have blind faith. Think of a way to suppress Bai Wanxi’s consciousness. Otherwise, your soul will be snatched away before we can remove it from your body.”

Quan Jue’s tone was unfriendly and his words were direct. But it was the truth. This was also what Chi Jiao wanted to tell Xu Ye. “Xu Ye, although Brother Quan’s words are unpleasant, it’s the truth. You have to be more careful. Don’t let Bai Wanxi completely occupy your body. Otherwise, no one can guarantee what will happen.”

Chi Jiao and Quan Jue essentially said the same thing, but it had different effects. Xu Ye, who had felt indignant at Quan Jue’s warning, nodded without hesitation at Chi Jiao’s words. “I understand! Jiaojiao, don’t worry!”

After instructing Xu Ye, Chi Jiao and Quan Jue went to their room downstairs to rest and wait for She Qi to make a move.

That night, outside the protective shield of the building, the fluctuation belonging to an Esper appeared again. It kept trying to attack, but the results were unsatisfactory. No matter how hard the Esper tried, he could not break through this sturdy barrier.

The Esper didn’t attack too aggressively so as to not arouse suspicion. However, she didn’t know that her every move was already being monitored.

Chi Jiao and the rest observed the Esper’s every move without revealing themselves.

The next morning, the Esper who had worked hard the entire night still failed. She could only leave dejectedly.

Right before dawn, a figure rushed out at lightning speed. After leaving the vicinity of the 117 building and entering an empty forest, she immediately changed into a princess dress and walked out of the forest with a small parasol.

The sunlight shone down and landed on the lace parasol. Xia Luoqiao held a small mirror in her other hand. After carefully looking at herself in the mirror, she said softly, “Annoying. My dark eye circles seem to have gotten heavier.”
