It wasn’t that Victoria was exaggerating, it really was that fragrant!
Jiang Nan was laughing his head off inside!
As long as she eats it, perfect!
If she didn’t eat it, wouldn’t all my preparation have been for nothing?
And why was I brave enough to eat it myself?
The spatial wormhole opens straight into my mouth! Standard procedure, alright?
“Look at me, so careless, I completely forgot you’re not used to chopsticks!”
“Here! I’ll feed you! Ah~”
With that, he picked up a clump of bean sprouts and held it out!
Victoria gave a charming smile!
“Ah~”
[Resentment value from Nightingale +666!]
Does this scene have to be so bloody harmonious!
Are you sure this woman is really here to kill you?
Andre curled his lip and sullenly took a swig of the Water of Life!
Victoria narrowed her eyes. “This is fragrant too, I love it!”
“So when do we start talking serious business?”
Jiang Nan grinned. “You brought the spirit pearl?”
“Of course I did!”
“But you told me you want long-term cooperation with us?”
Jiang Nan shrugged. “Naturally! But I have to understand your side a bit first, right?”
Victoria said, “I can’t tell you much. I can only say we are members of the Illuminati Society!”
“An organisation that has existed for a very long time! It even predates the revival of spiritual energy, and to some extent it guided the course of this era!”
“Its foundations are even stronger than some countries!”
“Lord Odin quite admires you! If you join the Illuminati Society, the organisation won’t restrict you in any way and will provide you with suitable cultivation resources!”
“As for anything more, you’ll know once you join!”
Jiang Nan’s eyes flickered. The Illuminati Society?
Interesting!
Victoria fanned her cheek. “Phew, it’s so hot in your house! I’ll take off my coat!”
She removed her coat. The wine-red high-neck tight sweater made her look even more alluring!
Jiang Nan stroked his chin. Just a bit hot?
Diamond rank really is strong, or maybe the chives weren’t enough!
“Ah~ Here! Another bite!”
“Hee hee, you’re so sweet~”
At this point, Andre on the side really couldn’t watch any longer. He curled his lip and said, “I honestly don’t know what Lord Odin was thinking! Letting this shameless bastard into the Illuminati Society?”
“He’ll get us all screwed!”
Victoria snapped, “How can you talk to Jiang Nan like that?”
Jiang Nan raised an eyebrow. “Looks like Brother Andre has some misunderstanding about me!”
Andre exploded!
“Misunderstanding? What bloody misunderstanding?”
“I don’t blame you for what happened with Su Ka back then. Different sides, each serving our own master!”
“Bang!”
Andre yanked the diamond necklace from his neck and slammed it on the table!
“This thing! You better bloody explain it to me!”
“I did exactly what you said and soaked it in water for over half a year! Not a damn bit of use!”
“Were you conning me? Have I wronged you?”
Nightingale stared at the necklace on the table in horror!
Is this guy an idiot?
Jiang Nan’s expression turned serious. “How could it possibly be useless? Why would I con you? I was heartbroken for ages after selling it to you!”
Andre fumed. “You still want to con me? Then why didn’t it work when I drank it?”
Jiang Nan replied, “Did you chant the incantation? Were you devout enough? There’s no way it doesn’t work!”
Andre’s smile froze. “In… incantation? No…”
I really couldn’t keep it up!
That incantation is just too bloody embarrassing, alright?
I’m a big boss after all. How the hell am I supposed to say that out loud!
Don’t I have any face left?
Jiang Nan said, “There you go! If you don’t chant the incantation, of course it won’t work!”
Andre glared. “Bullshit! If it’s really effective, would it need an incantation?”
Jiang Nan challenged, “Don’t believe me? Try it then?”
“Fine, I’ll try! I refuse to believe your nonsense!”
The argument between the two left Nightingale and Victoria completely bewildered the whole time!
What on earth are you two talking about that’s so weird!
Then Andre put the diamond necklace straight into his cup!
He poured hot water over it and even sprinkled in some goji berries!
Nightingale: Pfft…
You… you’re actually soaked it for real!
Goji berries?
What the hell are goji berries!
Victoria had already covered her face, looking utterly disgusted!
Why did I have to come with this absolute weirdo this time!
“Watch! Just watch how it doesn’t work!”
Jiang Nan patted his chest. “Relax, brother! If it doesn’t work, you can kill me, no problem!”
“This stuff is too potent. Eat some dumplings first to line your stomach!”
Andre demolished half a plate of dumplings, wiped his mouth!
He stood up immediately, raised his cup, took a deep breath!
He opened his mouth to speak, but glanced at Victoria and Nightingale beside him!
His old face flushed red. He hemmed and hawed for ages but couldn’t get a single word out!
Jiang Nan panicked!
“Don’t you want to become as strong as me?”
“Don’t you want to become a real man?”
“Don’t you want to transform into an invincible war god?”
“Don’t go against your heart! Say it loud! Roar it out!”
Andre’s eyes widened, his face filled with determination! He bellowed at the top of his voice!
“Invincible Diamond Treasure King of the world!”
“I am the strongest in nightly revelry!”
“Bottoms up! Roar!”
With that, he threw his head back and downed the lot!
Nightingale: Σ_(꒪ཀ꒪」∠) *bleurgh*!
He… he actually drank it!
My eyes!
Damn it! What kind of scene is this!
At this moment, Nightingale’s worldview was on the verge of collapse!
Even though she had no idea what was going on!
Jiang Nan had only said a few words, yet he managed to trick this platinum-rank powerhouse into acting like this?
Throwing away all face?
Disgusting!
Is he really that godly?
Young Master Nan’s mouth is just too powerful!
Victoria stared at Andre’s expression with growing horror!
She was so disgusted she was shaking!
She got up, moved her stool, and sat as far away from Andre as possible!
I don’t know this absolute moron!
How did you manage to shout that out and then summon the courage to drink it!
Andre, having drained the cup, saw the disgusted looks from Nightingale and Victoria. His face turned even redder!
Jiang Nan: “Pfft… mmph!!!”
Right now, under the table! He was frantically pinching his own thigh!
Hold it in! You must hold it in!
Andre exploded again. “Laughing? You were just laughing, weren’t you? You really are conning me! I bloody…”
Before he could finish swearing!
There was a loud “bang”. The table on Andre’s side suddenly lifted up!
It nearly flipped the entire table!
By now, the half-plate of chive-and-egg dumplings he had eaten had kicked in!
The sudden movement startled both Nightingale and Victoria!
Wha… what’s happening?
Nobody touched the table! How did one side lift up by itself?
Everyone’s gaze focused on Andre, who had stood up!
That was exactly the side where Andre was sitting!
Andre: (ŎﾛŎ‧̣̥̇)
It… it actually worked?
Holy heavens!
Unable to bear the weight of the table any longer, Andre quickly sat back down!
The table dropped back with a thud!
Victoria covered her mouth, her face full of shock, as if she had seen something unbelievable!
Nightingale tilted her head in total confusion. “Jiang Nan? Why did the table just lift up? Both his hands clearly weren’t touching it!”
Jiang Nan rolled his eyes. “The Year 7 biology textbook I gave you, page nine! Did you actually study it properly?”
Nightingale: “Huh?”
(•́‸•̀)¿¿¿
