Chapter 608 - Half an Hour (2/2)
Meng Jing nods and says with a bitter smile, “You’ve talked so much with me. How can I still be that stubborn?”
The old woman nods her head with satisfaction and says smilingly, “It’s great that you’ve thought it through. After all, you are still young now. Understandably, you make some mistakes. You just need to move on. I’ve always seen you as my birth daughter. Never do I want to see you get hurt, but as to some matters, you still need to experience them on your own. Otherwise, how can you grow?”
“Yes, Granny.” Meng Jing nods her head, stands up and passes a glass of water to the old woman.
The old woman reaches out her hand and fetches the glass from Meng Jing. Having taken a sip of the water, she says with a smile on her face, “As to Gao Ge, nice as he is, he is not that excellent. There are plenty of outstanding disciples in the Ghost Sect. After we go back, I will pick one for you!”
Meng Jing is so contemptuous of this old woman.
It is such a pack of nonsense to pick a man in the Ghost Sect for her…
A hurried pounding on the door interrupts the conversation between the old woman and Meng Jing.
“Go get the door.”
“Okay.”
Meng Jing stands up and goes to open the door. The two disciples of the Ghost Sect walk over hurriedly, but they don’t forget the basic etiquette. They say in a low voice, “Good day, Miss Meng.”
Although Meng Jing joined the sect much later than them, they both know that she is not weak and that she is deeply favored by the old woman. They never dare to show disregard for her in front of the old woman. A fellow disciple had made this kind of mistake and then as a result, he was killed by the old woman.
Moreover, the fellow disciple just died right in front of them, which left a shockingly indelible impression on them.
The two disciples walk to the old woman. One of them says, “Granny, we’ve got some news.”
“Oh yeah?” The old woman asks, “I’ve asked you to keep an eye on the panda. What have you got?”
“Haha, Granny, good news! A team leader of the Dragon Court has gone to the west of Qiu City to save people!”
“The west of Qiu City?” The old woman slightly frowns and asks, “Aren’t we in the west of the city?”
“Yeah, Granny. They are not around but they are not far away,” the disciple of the Ghost Sect continues.
The other disciple also takes the opportunity to say in haste, “Moreover, Granny, before we came back, we had looked into their situation. We didn’t find Fire Dragon and Water Dragon except for several members and a team leader of the Dragon Court…”
The old woman’s eyes glisten, but she is a bit worried, saying, “How do you know Water Dragon and Fire Dragon are not hiding somewhere?”
The two disciples look each other in the eye, chuckle and say, “Rest assured, Granny. We’ve investigated it and found Fire Dragon and Water Dragon are still in that yard. They aren’t coming.”
The old woman lets out a sigh with relief.
“But…”
“What?” The old woman frowns and looks at the disciple biting his lip. Then she snaps, “I thought you two had done a good job and intended to give you some reward. However, you are playing a trick with me now. Do you want to die?”
“I dare not! I just want to say although Fire Dragon and Water Dragon don’t come, Gao Ge is driving here, for he is concerned about the panda. He will arrive in half an hour at most.”
The old woman’s brow furrows.
Meng Jing’s facial expression looks a bit complicated but the old woman doesn’t find anything wrong. If Meng Jing acts normal upon hearing the name of Gao Ge, it will be really strange.
“Half an hour…” The old woman is lost in thinking.
After a while, she suddenly raises her head.
“This is our chance then. We can strive to take the panda away with us within half an hour. If we can’t, we may as well just kill it directly. I won’t allow anyone or anything to hinder my plan in Qiu City!”
“Yes!” The two disciples of the Ghost Sect look somewhat excited. After all, they are the ones who bring the news back.
If the plan really works, they will be greatly rewarded by the old woman.
Although the old woman is eccentric, capricious and volatile, honestly, she is quite generous. Probably it is because she has a lot of good stuff.
