All Worlds Beg the Villainess to Act Like a Human

Chapter 300: Chapter 300: Correcting the Unfortunate Life of a Girl (24)

Seeing Qiann Yan’s adept technique, he swallowed all the words he was about to say.

The young girl before him was full of mysteries, and he dared not probe further. Just the sight of her constantly carving indistinct figures on the Jade Token with a small knife told him she was no simple person.

His address for her changed from classmate Xia to Master Xia. Respecting her more was undoubtedly the right thing to do.

After finishing the carvings, Qiann Yan infused Spiritual Power into them, cast a spell, and it took two hours to complete all the Jade Tokens.

She picked up three of the Jade Tokens and handed them to Wuh Huai: ”Drop a single drop of your blood onto them. Within a certain range, demons and ghosts cannot intrude, posing no threat to you. Even if attacked, anyone less powerful than me won’t be able to harm you.”

Her primary concern was defending against Shang Ruqi’s Divine Sense attacks; to ordinary people, Shang Ruqi’s Divine Sense was an irresistible force.

Xiaang Tianmin’s experience on that day was a case in point.

Xiaang Tianmin even fell into a coma because of it, showing that it could cause significant mental trauma. She would not allow Shang Ruqi to exploit this weakness.

Wuh Huai trusted Qiann Yan immensely and without hesitation pricked his finger with a needle, letting a drop of blood fall onto the Jade Token. To his surprise, the flawlessly glossy Jade Token absorbed the bright red blood.

Wuh Jiaqi and Ke Xuee saw this and hastily followed suit.

”Never take it off under any circumstances; it’s best to keep it hidden in your clothes so no one else sees it,” Qiann Yan cautioned.

She put away the remaining Jade Tokens, her gaze falling on Ke Xuee: ”Mrs. Wuh, later arrange a meeting with Shang Ruqi for old times’ sake. I need to make some arrangements that she must not discover.”

Ke Xuee: ”Alright, I’ll arrange it as soon as I see you off.”

In truth, Ke Xuee felt a bit scared and resentful; she wondered why Shang Ruqi would harm her son when she had always regarded her as the best friend.

Ke Xuee suddenly paused, perhaps now understanding why Shang Ruqi had acted as she did.

”Master Xia, I’ve remembered something; I don’t know if it will help you.” Ke Xuee stopped Qiann Yan, ”Regarding Shang Ruqi harming Little Hua, I have some suspicions, though I’m not sure.”

Qiann Yan sat back down; learning more about Shang Ruqi was essential.

Ke Xuee: ”I’ve known Shang Ruqi since primary school. We were very close from then.”

”From primary school through middle and high school to university, we attended the same schools—it’s quite the fate. No matter the gathering I hosted, Shang Ruqi was always invited. Almost everyone around me knew she was my good friend.”

”In the second year of university, Shang Ruqi fell in love with her current husband, Qian Heng. Ruqi was very beautiful; Qian Heng courted her for quite a while before winning her over.” Pausing here, Ke Xuee continued, ”Actually, I didn’t really like Qian Heng; I felt he was a bit slick and frivolous. His affection was mostly verbal with little action. But Ruqi was steadfast in her affection for him, deciding to marry him right after graduation.”

”I privately tried to dissuade her, but she was determined to follow Qian Heng. And since we had a good relationship, I couldn’t persist in undermining what she saw as destined love, so the matter was dropped.”

”Later, upon meeting the Shang Family, I learned they weren’t too supportive of the marriage either. The Shang elders worried Ruqi might suffer and pooled money to buy her an apartment in an upscale neighborhood, fearing she might face injustice and need a place to retreat to, away from control.”

Qiann Yan hadn’t expected that the apartment had come to be in this manner.
