Tang Susu panicked. “System!”

She didn’t care and rushed forward, wanting to pick up the jade pendant from the fire.

No one even saw what was flying past them. They only saw Tang Susu suddenly pouncing toward the burning flame.

“Susu!”

Shen Zhiting’s heart skipped a beat. The moment he stopped her, he reached out and pulled her away from certain danger.

Then, when no one expected it, he reached into the fire without hesitation and grabbed the jade pendant that Tang Susu wanted.

“You’re crazy!”

Tang Susu was also in a panic just now, worried that the jade pendant would do something to Chengya, so she stretched out her hand in a daze.

Shen Zhiting’s hand immediately shrank back. “It’s hot.”

What was really scalding wasn’t He Qiang’s flames, which didn’t have much effect on Shen Zhiting, but the strange jade pendant.

“Throw it away!” Tang Susu hurriedly said.

As she spoke, she slapped his hand away. The jade pendant fell to the ground and cracked. It was frozen by Tang Mingqi’s frost and then struck down by Tang Mingchu’s electricity. The jade pendant simply trembled twice but remained undamaged.

Everyone couldn’t say a word.

Dumei looked at Shen Zhiting’s hand, which had turned red from Tang Susu’s slap. Who was she?

How could she treat him like that?

She looked at Shen Zhiting with fear in her eyes. This man had been like a god ever since she joined the National Metahuman Squad. From the initial resistance to her ability, she gradually accepted the difference between herself and others. She had been trained to become an elite and had done everything she could to squeeze into the core team of the National Metahuman Squad.

He was her goal and her light.

From the age of sixteen to twenty-six, there was not a day when she would not think of him in her mind for the past ten years.

“Don’t look.” Sang sighed softly in her ear and covered her eyes in time.

Dumei was stunned for a moment. She really didn’t dare to look anymore. Her red lips trembled. “Is it that obvious?”

Sang didn’t say anything. Their boss was a difficult person to figure out. No one knew what he was thinking, but at this moment, he was very easy to understand.

She was the only one in his world.

Eleven pursed his lips and said to the flabbergasted Eighth, “You’ve lost. Give me the crystal core!”

“Boss, how obvious can you get? That girl’s family would shoot a hole through him if she could.” Eighth fumbled around his body unwillingly and threw a black T4 crystal core at Eleven. He continued to mutter, “Why did his cold, dead heart start beating right now? And she’s a little girl who doesn’t even look like she’ll impress!”

“Stop it!” Qing Mo gave him a light punch. “We’ll see if the boss will stop at just giving you a beating.”

“I can take it.”

“Yeah, you can keep saying that. When the time comes, we won’t help you when you pee your pants and beg for forgiveness.”

Eighth bared his teeth. “So how is she better than Dumei? She doesn’t have breasts, her figure and face aren’t charming enough either. She’s still a little brat. Even if she’s an electrokineticist, she’s pitifully weak. 1 reckon she can’t even kill an ant. She’s quite fierce, so I reckon she doesn’t have a good temper either.”

“Eighth, don’t talk about her like that. It’s her strength that Boss has taken a fancy to…” Dumei quickly calmed down, but she lowered her gaze. She still didn’t dare to see what kind of gaze the man was using to look at the other woman.

“Dumei, you’re too kind. Otherwise, if you did as I said, you would have taken the Boss a long time ago.” Eighth huffed angrily on her behalf. “There won’t be any chances for others to do anything!”

Tang Susu didn’t know that the people over there had already caused a ruckus because of her.

She watched as Ying Chengya was burned to ashes bit by bit, then she looked at the motionless jade pendant beside her.

There shouldn’t be any problems.

After a while, Mr. Tang found something to scoop up the red, hot jade pendant and put it into a bag. “What should I do with this?”

Tang Susu recalled that the medium of their pocket dimension was also jade accessories, and they could recognize their owner. Ying Chengya’s space could even allow people to go in, so it was probably even more powerful.

If it wanted to do something, she probably wouldn’t be able to stop it.

“Go back and find a place to bury it. Don’t let anyone see it,” Tang Susu whispered to him. She didn’t want to bring this thing with her, as she felt that there was something wrong with it. After Shen Zhiting left, she had to ask 008 if there was any way to deal with it.

Speaking of Shen Zhiting, she was about to look for him, but when she turned around, she met his deep and focused gaze, and she was instantly stunned.

That wasn’t the first or second time. It seemed that she would meet his gaze every time..
