Chapter 493 The Real World: The Reason for the Assassination
Logically speaking, the other party should have had no chance of surviving after taking that blow. However, the waiter did not fall to the ground and die. Instead, his entire body shattered and disappeared like glass.
After the crisis was over, Su Jinyue looked around. The people at the banquet were still doing their own things. It was surprising that the commotion she and the waiter made hadn't alerted anyone else.
Kongkong: [Host, I set up a barrier while you were fighting. No one except your man could see or hear your movements.]
Su Jinyue breathed a sigh of relief. That's good. With Kongkong's help, it won't attract too much attention. Otherwise, it would be quite troublesome to explain.
Su Jinyue stood there, still thinking about how to handle the aftermath, when she suddenly felt a strong gaze fixed on her.
At that moment, her senses were sharpest, and she immediately turned around to look, only to find that the person whose gaze she was looking at was Fu Cinian.
Seeing Fu Cinian's deep gaze and the seemingly calm expression that concealed a volcano about to erupt, Su Jinyue suddenly felt a little guilty.
But then she thought, what's there to feel guilty about? She clearly came to save him!
Fu Cinian narrowed his eyes, his dark pupils staring straight at Su Jinyue. Before anyone else could notice Su Jinyue, he quickly stepped forward, put his arm around her, and led her to an inconspicuous corner.
Su Jinyue was still wearing her pajamas, specifically a red silk slip dress. They had been up all night, and Su Jinyue still had some red, suggestive marks on her body.
Fu Cinian knew she wasn't going out today, so he was a bit too unrestrained last night and went a little too far.
Who knew that, out of the blue, Su Jinyue showed up at the banquet in her pajamas, got into a fight, and miraculously disappeared after losing the fight, without attracting the attention of anyone else at the banquet!
Fu Cinian knew this was quite miraculous, but now was not the time to investigate it. What he should be doing now was figuring out how to make Su Jinyue appear at the banquet in a reasonable way.
Anyway, so many miraculous things have happened to Su Jinyue, and he's been helping her clean up the mess before, so one more won't make a difference.
Fu Cinian led Su Jinyue to a corner of the banquet hall, took off his suit jacket, and gave it to Su Jinyue to wear.
Fu Cinian was somewhat satisfied after he covered up all the marks on her body.
"Why did you suddenly come here, and why are you dressed like this?"
"Can you still go back? Or do you want to come back with me?"
Su Jinyue looked down at her clothes and realized that something was wrong.
She still had a teleportation talisman, so going back wouldn't be a problem, but she was worried that there might be more than one outsider, and she couldn't let Fu Cinian be alone at this time.
Thinking that she was revealing more and more to Fu Cinian, Su Jinyue simply stopped hiding it.
She looked up and checked the corner; there were no security cameras there. Then she spoke to Fu Cinian.
"The matter is somewhat complicated and cannot be explained in a short time."
I'll go back with you. Wait for me a moment; I'll go change my clothes first.
Fu Cinian wanted to ask where she was going to change clothes. If all else failed, he would contact Assistant Lu and have him send over a change of clothes as an emergency measure.
But before Fu Cinian could reveal his plan, Su Jinyue suddenly disappeared in front of him!
Fu Cinian's pupils dilated in shock, and he was speechless for a long time. He then looked around warily and was only slightly relieved when he found that no one was paying attention to them.
Not long after, Su Jinyue reappeared dressed in a new outfit. Her new light-colored dress, paired with simple makeup and hair, was refreshing without overshadowing the main character.
The difference between Su Jinyue and Su Jinyue was so great that Fu Cinian was momentarily stunned. It wasn't until Su Jinyue took Fu Cinian's coat and took his arm that Fu Cinian came back to his senses.
In fact, Su Jinyue hadn't been gone for long, but her sudden disappearance intensified Fu Cinian's panic, and he truly felt that each day was an eternity.
It wasn't until Su Jinyue reappeared and Fu Cinian touched the real, warm Su Jinyue that he felt the true sense of having regained what he had lost.
As Su Jinyue linked arms with him and walked out, Fu Cinian was still marveling at how Su Jinyue was no longer hiding anything from him.
When he got back, he would remind Su Jinyue that she should not use these magical methods in front of outsiders.
Regarding Su Jinyue's sudden appearance, Fu Cinian explained that they were originally supposed to come together, but Su Jinyue was delayed by something and that's why she didn't come along.
Fu Cinian covered for Su Jinyue and smoothed things over with the banquet host. Since it was the New Year, no one bothered with such a small matter, and so the incident of Su Jinyue's sudden appearance was forgotten.
At the banquet, Su Jinyue stayed close to Fu Cinian, fearing that another outsider might suddenly appear and assassinate him.
It wasn't until the banquet ended and she was back in her car that Su Jinyue relaxed her guard a little.
Su Jinyue pinched the bridge of her nose, finally able to ask Kongkong for the reason.
"Kongkong, what exactly is going on? How could an outsider assassinate Fu Cinian?"
After stammering for a while, he had no choice but to answer Su Jinyue's question.
[Host, I learned about the outsider's entry from the Heavenly Dao, and the Heavenly Dao also told me about the outsider's attempt to assassinate Fu Cinian.]
The situation was urgent at the time, so I could only tell you the important things first.
As for why they wanted to assassinate Fu Cinian, I still don't understand.
Kongkong was depressed. This incident was too sudden. If it weren't for the Heavenly Dao's warning, things would have really gone wrong.
However, the reason why the outsider came to this world to assassinate Fu Cinian was truly baffling.
Could it be that the master's identity has been discovered? But judging from the assassin's strength, it doesn't seem like they're after the master.
"The Heavenly Dao? Kongkong, you still have a connection with the Heavenly Dao of this world?"
Su Jinyue was surprised, yet felt it made sense. If anyone could discover the outsiders entering the world in time, then that person would undoubtedly be the Heavenly Dao.
Su Jinyue was even more curious about how Kongkong was able to connect with the Heavenly Dao, and it seemed that the two had a pretty good relationship.
Kongkong felt inexplicably guilty after being asked a question by Su Jinyue. She couldn't go any deeper into the matter, or it would bring up her master.
[Host, it's perfectly normal for me to have connections with the Heavenly Dao. It's an innate ability of mine. In the small world you transmigrated to, I also frequently connected with the Heavenly Dao.]
Su Jinyue nodded. That was true. In the previous small world, Kongkong was able to communicate with the Heavenly Dao, which played a significant role when she was doing her missions.
With that in mind, Su Jinyue let go of that point and started asking about other things.
"Did Heaven say where the outsiders came from and why they wanted to assassinate Fu Cinian?"
