Chapter 357 - 357 Just Say It
357 Just Say It
After a slight pause, Su Ming continued, “I won’t tell you the details, so that you won’t be bothered.”
When she saw that Su Ming did not seem to want to say anything, and the curious Lin Can was about to continue asking, Shen Yi changed the topic.
“Hey, have you guys encountered anything particularly annoying in the game recently? I recently encountered a treasure that greatly benefits me.”
“But the NPC guarding that place is a little strong. I’ve been stuck there for a long time.”
Hearing Shen Yi’s words, Lin Can’s attention was indeed attracted. He turned to look at Shen Yi and said, “Sister Shen Yi, what kind of monster did you encounter?”
“If you really can’t do it, send me the location. I’ll help you fight it. If the two of us fight together, we shouldn’t lose.”
When Shen Yi heard this, she smiled bitterly. “It’s better not to. That monster will increase its strength according to the number of people and strength.”
“Otherwise, I would have brought Su Ming along with me and asked him to help me defeat this monster.”
Upon hearing Shen Yi’s words, Lin Can nodded in realization and said, “Alright then, I’ll tell you. However, if you have anything else, remember to let me know.”
Shen Yi smiled and said, “Is there a need to say that? If I really have something to do, I’ll definitely come and look for you.”
After that, everyone ate happily.
When everyone was almost done eating, Su Ming walked to the toilet. Just as he was about to go to the toilet, his phone suddenly rang.
Su Ming picked up his phone and looked at it. The caller made him frown slightly. It was Shen Fang again.
After the last incident, the relationship between the two of them changed from a little tense at the beginning to gradually changing into a friend’s attitude.
However, because Shen Fang had never been looking for him for anything good, Su Ming instinctively felt a little worried when he saw Shen Fang’s call.
As he thought about it, Su Ming shook his head and threw away the messy thoughts in his head before he picked up the call.
“What’s wrong?”
Once Su Ming asked this question, Shen Fang’s voice came from the other end of the phone.
“Where are you now?”
When Su Ming heard that, he frowned slightly.
He could hear a serious tone in the other party’s voice.
“What happened?”
“Let’s talk when we meet.”
When Su Ming heard Shen Fang’s words, he fell silent for a moment before he spoke slowly.
“Give me the address.”
…
Once he returned to the dining room, Su Ming stood before everyone, but he did not sit down.
Shen Yi noticed that something was wrong immediately. She frowned slightly and asked, “What’s wrong? Aren’t you going to eat?”
When they heard Shen Yi’s words, the others also cast their gazes in Su Ming’s direction.
When Su Ming heard Shen Yi’s question, he first shook his head slightly, then said, “I have something to do at the moment.”
“I’ve already paid the bill. You guys can continue eating.”
Lin Can instinctively looked in Su Ming’s direction and asked, “What is it? Brother Su, do you need my help?”
Su Ming cast him a glance, then shook his head and said, “No need.”
At that moment, everyone could clearly sense that there was something off about Su Ming’s emotions, which was why no one said anything else.
Once they gave Su Ming a few reminders, they did not ask any more questions.
Once Su Ming nodded at them, he turned his gaze towards Shen Yi.
“Come with me.”
When Shen Yi heard Su Ming’s words, she was momentarily stunned.
Then, she seemed to have realized something and frowned.
“It’s him?”
Su Ming fell silent for a moment, then nodded.
Shen Yi took a deep breath and said, “Got it. Let’s go.”
The conversation between the two made the remaining three even more puzzled. However, they still did not speak as they stared at the two.
After that, Su Ming looked at the three of them and said, “If you want to eat anything else, order it yourself. Come back and ask me for reimbursement.”
Once he finished speaking, Su Ming brought Shen Yi out of the dining room.
Shen Yi’s expression turned ugly the moment she stepped out of the restaurant.
“What does he mean by this? Is he looking for you again? Why didn’t he look for me?”
“What did he say to you? Is he asking you to join them again?”
When Su Ming heard that, he first pressed Shen Yi’s shoulder to comfort her, then he said, “After what happened last time, he probably won’t try to pull me into their ranks again.”
“We’ve already made our stance clear last time. We can be considered to have formed a cooperative relationship. It’s unlikely that he will look for us to discuss cooperation again.”
After a slight pause, Su Ming said slowly, “As for what he wants to do… He didn’t say anything over the phone. I guess we’ll only know after we meet.”
When she heard Su Ming’s words, Shen Yi took a deep breath to calm herself down before she spoke again, “Then let’s go together and see why he’s looking for you.”
Su Ming nodded and did not say anything else. Instead, he brought Shen Yi to hail a cab.
This time, Shen Fang did not ask them to meet at a cafe. Instead, he asked them to meet at a villa in the city.
After arriving at the villa, the two of them quickly met Shen Fang.
After the three of them met, the atmosphere was clearly not good.
It was mainly because Shen Yi’s expression was a little sour when she saw Shen Fang. She looked like she did not want to talk to her brother.
When Shen Fang saw his sister’s appearance, his expression was a little awkward.
He wanted to say something, but he did not know what to say.
Su Ming had no choice but to admit that Shen Yi knew her brother very well.
Su Ming threw away all the messy thoughts in his heart and looked at Shen Fang before him. He said, “Why did you call us here this time?”
Once Shen Fang heard Su Ming speak, he first cast a grateful gaze in his direction.
Then, he said directly, “I remember that I should have told you last time. The day of the arrival of the Extraterrestrials is getting closer and closer.”
Su Ming was stunned at first, but then he remembered the matter they had talked about the last time, and his expression turned serious.
“Tomorrow, at eight in the morning.”
When Shen Fang said this, the expressions of the two people who originally had their own thoughts immediately stiffened.
Su Ming and Shen Yi looked at each other and saw a hint of disbelief in each other’s eyes.
However, soon, the two of them reacted.
According to what he said last time, that day was indeed very close.
