Even hybrid monsters have their day

Chapter 242 Leaving

Seeing that he clearly had an expression that said, "I want to show you," Geng Miaowan replied, "What treasure? Let me see it too."

"it is good."

He turned the plane to the side, shook it, and something fell out of the cockpit.

It's grayish-white, and if you don't look closely, it looks like a small pebble.

As soon as the object fell to the ground, Geng Miaowan's eyes widened instantly. She hurriedly picked it up from Lu Shuaishuai's feet and examined it closely.

"How did you get this?" This thing is exactly the same as the ones in her storage ring.

Lu Shuaishuai thought for a moment and said, "That day when I was in the hospital, I felt like something was blocking my throat, and I was coughing and coughing, and suddenly this thing came out. It's very pretty."

"Really?" Looking at the dull gray stone, Geng Miaowan couldn't imagine what was beautiful about it.

"Yes, when I coughed it up that day, it was still streaked with blood and emitted a seven-colored light. But it never lit up again after that." His tone was tinged with regret.

Hearing him say that, Geng Miaowan suddenly remembered the object that appeared on his chest when she transferred his blood that day. Could it be that? Was the powerful spiritual energy that suddenly appeared that day because of it? Thinking of this, she said to Lu Shuaishuai, "Shuaishuai, can you give me that object?"

"Why?" Lu Shuaishuai seemed to really like it, and when he heard her say those words, a trace of reluctance flashed across his face.

“Because…” Geng Miaowan suddenly felt like a strange uncle snatching a child’s favorite toy. Looking into that innocent gaze, she didn’t know what excuse to use to get him to give it to her. But she really wanted it. Once or twice could be considered a coincidence, but its repeated appearances made it hard to believe it was just a coincidence.

She always felt that this might be some kind of hint from the heavens.

Moreover, if the loss of control of spiritual energy that day was due to this stone, then she dared to say that it was definitely not an ordinary stone.

Perhaps the longing on her face was too obvious, so after considering for a moment, Lu Shuaishuai said, "If you really like it too, then I'll give it to you. My mother says that sharing makes a good child."

Although he said that, his face showed an expression of enduring pain. To prevent him from changing his mind, Geng Miaowan immediately put away the stone-like object after he agreed.

However, she didn't intend to take it for free. In exchange, she promised to take him to an amusement park when he had a holiday.

It was quite late when we returned, and we were about to enter the overpass leading from Xinglin Town to the city. Only one or two cars passed by occasionally. Their headlights shone brightly on the wide road, which was clean and smooth.

Geng Miaowan was still thinking about the stone, her gaze unconsciously drifting out the car window. The view was beautiful. In the darkness, twinkling lights shone like jewels carelessly scattered by the gods, dazzling and mesmerizing.

Peng Yuxian was driving, but he kept a close eye on her. Sensing that she seemed lost in thought ever since leaving Lu Fangtong's house, he couldn't help but ask, "What's wrong?"

Geng Miaowan turned her head and glanced at him, replying casually, "Oh, it's nothing."

She clearly seemed to be in trouble, yet she insisted on telling him she was fine, which immediately darkened Peng Yuxian's mood. Although she had clung to him from the very beginning, she had never revealed her true identity to him.

He couldn't find any information about her at all. This made him angry, but even more so, he felt uneasy.

For some reason, he had a vague feeling that she might leave at any moment, and he knew even more clearly that once she left, he would never find her again.

The past few days together hadn't stirred any strong feelings in him, yet deep down he didn't want her to leave. This feeling was subtle and strange. As a psychologist, he had analyzed this feeling within himself at least ten times, but he still couldn't figure it out.

Suddenly, a dark shadow flashed past in front of the car, so fast that Peng Yuxian thought it was his imagination.

At the same time, a long-awaited voice appeared in Geng Miaowan's mind, "Girl, is that you?"

"Xiaobai!" She suddenly turned her head to look out the window, her face full of surprise and anticipation, as well as a long-lost feeling of reunion. "Where are you?"

"I'm outside, let's not talk about that now. I'm here to get you away from here."

"Huh? Now?" It was too sudden; she wasn't prepared at all.

She glanced at Peng Yuxian subtly, wondering whether she should tell him or just leave without saying anything...

Peng Yuxian noticed that her expression was a little strange, as if she was looking for something outside the window. "What's wrong?"

Geng Miaowan shook her head, "It's nothing, it's just..."

"Just what?"

"Well... I might have to leave."

"Where are we going?" Peng Yuxian asked, then suddenly remembered something. He glanced at the overpass ahead, and the image of her suddenly appearing on the overpass that day flashed through his mind.

He slammed on the brakes, and a screeching sound echoed through the quiet road. Geng Miaowan lurched forward; if she hadn't been wearing her seatbelt, she probably would have been thrown out of the windshield.

She quickly looked back, and thankfully it was nighttime and there were no vehicles on the road, so no harm was done.

"Are you crazy! What if we get into a car accident?!" she shouted at him, still shaken.

Peng Yuxian ignored her shouts, glaring at her as if he wanted to devour her. "Tell me clearly, who exactly are you?" This feeling of being kept in the dark, always on edge, worried that she might suddenly disappear one day, was really unbearable.

Geng Miaowan didn't know how to tell him about this; she couldn't tell the truth, but she didn't want to tell a lie either.

She lowered her head, sensing an unusual current in the air; she knew she was about to leave. "Thank you so much for taking me in all this time. I don't want the wages anymore. Could you please tell Shuai Shuai I'm sorry I can't go to the amusement park with him? And..."

Geng Miaowan's figure grew fainter and fainter before Peng Yuxian's eyes, until it finally merged with the air and disappeared from sight.

"Geng Miaowan...Geng Miaowan! Don't go! Explain yourself!" (To be continued.)
