Chapter 287 - In the Wok (2/2)

“Oh…” Shen Jing nodded. “Then explain to me, who is the man under the table to the left?”

She could see that too! It was obvious that she had other cameras around the house.

Shen Jing did not sound as angry as she did before though. She just raised her eyebrows. “I’ve never seen you bring men to your house. Now, you’re bringing two in such a short duration. Are you… unsatisfied with what you already have?”

Lonemoon, the one who was “had”: “…”

Yi Qing, the one who supposedly satisfied her: “…”

Shen Ying frowned. “Older Sister, he’s not my boyfriend!” Father Niu is not!

“Oh.” Shen Jing looked as though she could see right through Shen Ying. “Since he isn’t, you teleported him here because…?”

Shen Ying looked down. She had no choice but to be honest. “”He was from the plane we were at before.”

Shen Jing’s expression darkened. She scanned Chef, who was still underneath the table, her expression hardening. “In other words… he’s an invader!”

“Older Sister, listen to me…”

“Shut up!” Shen Jing’s voice was cool now. Her gaze cut Shen Ying like knives. Even Lonemoon shuddered. “Was one trip out of the plane all it took to give you so much guts? Stay right where you are. I’m coming over immediately.”

Before any of them could reply, the screen switched off.

Lonemoon felt inexplicably nervous. Shen Jing’s expression was different from when she found out that he was under the table. She looked… enraged.

“Shen Ying, what is your older sister talking about?” He could not help but ask.

Shen Ying’s expression darkened. “All foreign invaders in any plane are considered unstable. The plane must purge them.”

“Purge… Your older sister isn’t thinking of killing Chef, is she?” Lonemoon’s heart dropped. For some reason, he knew that if Shen Jing really wanted to do so, Shen Ying would not be able to stop her. “What should we do?”

“Master…” Yi Qing lowered his gaze. “I came here of my own accord. If there’s any punishment, I’m willing to take it. I won’t fight!”

“You’re crazy!” Lonemoon shouted.

Shen Jing was the manager of this plane. He would probably not be able to withstand what she had in store for him.

“Forget it!” Shen Ying shouted through gritted teeth, as if thinking of something. “If my older sister really takes action, I… have another solution. Or… I will stop her.” He’s her Che… disciple after all. She had to do something, even if it costed her life!

“Really?” She should have said so earlier if she had a trump card. But looking at the fearful way she always looked at Shen Jing, Lonemoon did not know if he could really trust her.

“Yes.” She had lived under her older sister’s rule for years.

Lonemoon did not pursue the matter further. He watched as the air in front of him twisted and Shen Jing appeared within the house.

“So… he’s your disciple in the other plane?” Shen Ying leaned back on the sofa and scanned the group of three in front of her from head to toe.

“Yes.” Shen Ying nodded.

“Older Sister Shen Jing, Chef chased us all the way here. He did not know that he needed your permission before transmigrating,” Lonemoon explained. “Ignorant people should not be punished… please let it go.”

“Let it go?” Shen Jing laughed mirthlessly, her demeanour turning cool once more. “Do you think invading a plane is a simple matter? Do you know what kind of damage it could cause the plane? Do you know how much cleaning up I would have to do?”

“But he… did not mean to!”

“You think that can solve everything!” Shen Jing jumped to her feet. She threatened to cut the three of them into pieces with her glare. “If I don’t make an example out of him, everybody will start thinking they can invade my plane for no good reason. This world will end! Little Ying, they don’t understand, but surely you do?”

“… I do.”

“This one is the same!” Shen Jing suddenly turned to glare at Lonemoon.

“Me?” Lonemoon’s heart fell. He began to break out in a cold sweat.
