Chapter 379: The Prelude to Thunderstorm
Chapter 379: The Prelude to Thunderstorm
"Come on, I guess you're probably so happy that you can't forget the feeling."
The Water God showed no mercy to Xi Yeming and used the sharpest words to poke his fragile heart.
"That little girl, you should stay aside too."
Angelina raised her eyebrows in doubt for two seconds, and finally pointed at herself with her index finger.
"I?"
"Otherwise, is there another woman in this room?"
Angelina, who has always been strong, was naturally unwilling to accept this. She stood still and seemed unwilling to obey the orders of the water god.
"Please go out for a moment. I will call you as soon as I finish talking to Senior Shuishen."
Between offending Angelina and the Water God, Xi Yeming chose the former one which was easier to deal with.
"Humph."
Seeing that Xi Yeming actually asked her to wait outside, Angelina couldn't help but feel a little angry, but she still suppressed her dissatisfaction, walked towards the door with her head held high and a look of disdain on her face.
However, when she walked to the corridor outside the door, her steps stopped involuntarily.
Angelina turned her body slightly and glanced at the closed door with a sly look. Then she approached the wall carefully, squatted down as lightly as a cat, and pressed her ears tightly against the wall.
Obviously, she had no intention of leaving. Instead, she was full of curiosity about the conversation that was about to take place in the house and wanted to eavesdrop on it.
At this moment, the extremely vigilant water god in the house seemed to have noticed something unusual, and a hint of alertness flashed in her beautiful and deep eyes.
Then, the Water God turned to look at Xi Yeming and whispered, "Go and close the door. What I am going to discuss with you next is a private matter, and it is inconvenient for others to overhear."
Hearing the goddess's order, Xi Yeming did not dare to be negligent, and quickly stood up and walked to the door. He gently grasped the door handle and slowly closed the door, making a slight "click" sound. The whole action was done in one go, without any unnecessary movements. Then, Xi Yeming turned back to the mirror and quietly waited for the water god to speak.
At the same time, Angelina outside the room was listening intently to the noise inside the room. Unfortunately, although she had tried her best to put her ear close to the wall, due to the good sound insulation of the room, she could only hear a few intermittent and vague words.
This made Angelina feel a little annoyed. She frowned and wondered how to get more useful information.
"Ok?"
"what?"
"what?"
"hold head high."
"Oh."
"Row……"
Angelina stood outside the door, eavesdropping, feeling extremely anxious. She guessed that the extremely powerful water god had used some mysterious protective barrier to prevent her from knowing what was happening inside the house.
Time passed by minute by minute, and each moment seemed particularly long, but there was still no sound coming from the house.
Finally, after an unbearable silence, Xi Yeming gently opened the door and walked out with slow and steady steps.
Upon seeing this, Angelina rushed forward and asked impatiently, "What did she say to you?" Her words did not conceal her inner anxiety and curiosity.
Xi Yeming was caught off guard by this sudden question. He was stunned at first, then he reached out and scratched the corner of his mouth, with a slightly unnatural expression on his face.
After a slight hesitation, he stammered, "Um... She told me to take better care of Fumina in the future. If I can't do that, she'll teach me a lesson."
As he spoke, his eyes flickered, as if he was deliberately avoiding Angelina's gaze.
However, how could Angelina, who was extremely smart, be easily fooled by such words? She crossed her arms, raised her chin, and said confidently: "Don't you know? Whenever you make up a lie, you will involuntarily say the word 'uh' first to delay time and organize your words."
After saying this, she looked at Xi Yeming with a half-smile, her eyes filled with an all-seeing gleam.
Hearing this, Xi Yeming suddenly woke up as if from a dream, and he subconsciously began to recall whether he had really said that word just now.
At this moment, his eyes inadvertently swept across Angelina's slightly cunning expression, and he suddenly realized that he had been tricked!
"You actually lied to me?" Xi Yeming widened his eyes and shouted in shock.
Facing Xi Yeming's accusation, Angelina just snorted and turned around without looking back and walked towards the second floor. Her graceful figure gradually walked away, leaving Xi Yeming standing there alone, staring at the direction she left for a long time without saying a word.
Xi Yeming was hesitant and was wondering whether to follow when he heard Angelina's voice from behind the corner.
"Don't follow me!"
-
"What should I do? Angelina is angry again..." Xi Yeming leaned listlessly on the soft sofa cushion, holding a large furry pillow tightly in his arms, with a hint of melancholy in his eyes.
At this time, Binet, who was lying on the sofa beside him and concentrating on reading a picture book, heard Xi Yeming's mumbling, raised his head, and asked casually in a nonchalant tone: "Father, when did you become so concerned about other people's feelings?"
Facing his daughter's slightly teasing words, Xi Yeming could not help but frown, but he still suppressed his displeasure and tried to respond in a calm and rational tone: "Bina, you speak like this as if you think my moral standards are very low."
At this moment, Xiyana, who was busy in the house, happened to pass by the living room and suddenly interrupted: "Huh, to be honest, I really didn't realize how high your moral standards are."
These words were like a sharp sword piercing Xi Yeming's heart. He felt the blue veins on his forehead bulge instantly and a nameless fire suddenly rose up.
However, he knew that getting angry at this moment would not solve the problem, so he took a deep breath and tried to suppress the rage burning in his heart. In order to stop letting these troubles disturb his thoughts, Xi Yeming decided to shift his attention to other things - such as thinking about how to carefully arrange the lightning array to summon the goddess of thunder.
Assuming that Thor is really summoned, there is a high probability that a battle will take place. In order not to harm innocent people, the only option is to choose a sparsely populated place.
The key position of the formation must be able to take into account combat and even escape. Xi Yeming didn't expect that he could defeat the Thunder God at all.
"I still need to discuss this with Bai Hu Chi first," Xi Yeming turned his head to look at Xiyana who was cleaning the room, "Where is Bai Hu Chi?"
Siyana was wiping the table with a rag and answered without even looking up, "I'm out shopping for supplies."
