Chapter 132 That damn tiger is ruining my life Part 3

Angela's eyes had a rare glimmer in them as she promptly fished out her phone from her Valentino grey striped pants and typed a text message.

She nervously curled her soft blonde locks in one hand and deleted whatever she had just written.

Her deep blue eyes calmly searched for a better way to express her thoughts.

She then speedily typed something again.

Angela had to resort to this method of sending out a text instead of calling directly because the damn man had lately started dodging her calls.

And his assistant was of little to no use.

Moreover, this was not the worst part!

A few months back, she had actually taken a significant amount of time from her busy schedule and personally visited Hangzhou city.

But the man actually dared to disappear into the void right under her nose.

To make matters worse, her stupid brother had teased her to the ends of the earth because of this.

This hateful guy actually dared to convert her into a random socialite, shamelessly running behind and clinging to a rich man.

But still... The heart wants what it wants.

Sigh... Angela really didn't want to use this technique, but what other options did she have?

With this at least she can make sure that he would definitely accompany her and attend the event.

This was one of the most exclusive auctioning events in the entire world.

Even if someone throws millions and millions of dollars, they still might not be able to attain an invitation to attend this special auction.

Thus, with this trap, Angela was pretty sure about her chances of success.

And so, she carefully crafted an elegant text message and sent it to the man of her dreams, Shi Meng.

"Hi, Shi. I have an extra guest pass to the exclusive XXXI auction, happening next week in Iceland. You are welcome to join me for some fun."

There. A perfect, not so clingy text.

She double-checked it a few times over and sent it to the man.

After that, she even made sure to email the information to his assistant, so that the idiot did not miss it under any circumstance.

"This was still acceptable right? Yup, it definitely did not make her look clingy." Angela nodded satisfactorily before putting the phone away.

She then calmly walked out of her office to the next meeting room, barely hiding the bubbling anxiety and expectations.

Wouldn't it be so romantic to spend a couple of days in such an exotic place with her dreamy man? Her mind wandered and a subtle smile appeared on her perfect petite face.

.......

In an obscure corner of the planet Heira, a small villa lay hidden surrounded by acres and acres of lush green vegetation.

Precious herbs were sprawled around like weeds, peerless treasures were used as irrigation tools and heavenly pills were used as fertilizers.

Though it was obscure, this location was not really a closely safeguarded secret. Everyone knew about the location of this place, but no one dared to step foot in this territory.

Because this was the reigning domain of the renowned tyrannical queen of alchemy.

But nothing in this world was permanent. The sun that rose in the dawn had to set at the dusk.

An ominous aura enveloped the obscure villa, as a gentle elegant woman absent-mindedly played her guqin.

The peerlessly beautiful face seemed to be engrossed in deep thought as she played her familiar musical instrument in a trance-like state.

On this fateful day, her fingers danced a melody that was neither cheerful nor sorrowful. If one listened closely, they could even sense a feeling of relief in the melancholic spell.

Her fingers didn't stop moving for a long time. She seemed to be in her own world, drowned in her own eternity.

Soon four black-robed figures materialized next to her, suddenly and out of nowhere.

But her slender fingers did not pause. There wasn't even the slightest amount of surprise on her face. The melancholic melody continued flowing as if nothing of significance had happened.

Her impeccable face revealed a subtle smile, that only mocked the effort of the four black-robed figures.

Not able to take this suffocating atmosphere anymore, one of the robed figures barked, "We could have avoided all of this if you had only..."

"It really didn't have to be this way..."

But the woman didn't respond. She only knew too well how hollow and empty these words were.

Especially when coming from someone, whom she had once thought to be her entire life and soul.

"Hmph. Arrogant bitch. Face your death now. Let me see how you still continue to be arrogant." Another robed figure chimed in.

Compared to these two childish taunts, the other robed figures stood silently, not wanting to participate in anything that was unnecessary.

A few seconds later, the melody still didn't seem to come to an end and the woman continued refusing to acknowledge their presence.

Her eyes shown with mirth that defied the heavens. It was as if this world could not contain her luminescent presence.

The black-robed elder finally realized that something was wrong and immediately took action. This woman, she was dangerous!

He retrieved the vial of poisonous liquid specifically meant for her, a woman with the phoenix lineage.

He didn't waste any further time and sent the poison at her, mixed in with something that looked like a bolt of lightning.

But at the exact moment, when the attack was about to hit her, a domineering devilish smile appeared on that peerlessly beautiful face.

And the next instant...

Su Lin was awake. She was in that familiar room, lying next to the devilishly handsome man.

She panted a while before settling down. Her entire forehead and face were covered by beads of sweat, even though it a chilly winter night.

Maybe because she was regaining some of her previous cultivation, some nightmarish memories had resurfaced in her mind... The memories that were better left forgotten.
