Chapter 559: Emotional Crisis 6

She had been reminiscing about yesterday's events the whole time.

Nangong Liuyun's deep self-mockery and his sorrowful, starlike eyes lingered in her mind, refusing to fade.

This left Su Luo feeling guilty about yesterday, but she couldn't bring herself to apologize to Nangong Liuyun, so things remained at a standstill.

After an unknown amount of time, a series of hurried footsteps suddenly sounded outside the door.

"Lord Bei Chen, this is the Young Miss's bedroom, you cannot enter—" outside was the sound of Lu Luo trying to stop him.

However, the footsteps didn't falter for a moment, rushing swiftly toward Su Luo's bedroom.

The door curtain was lifted, and Bei Chenying's anxious face came into Su Luo's view.

"Sister-in-law, come with me quickly!" Bei Chenying reached out to pull Su Luo in a hurry.

Su Luo's heart skipped a beat, and a faint premonition of something bad surfaced.

"Did something happen to Nangong Liuyun?" At this moment, Su Luo could clearly hear her own heartbeat.

"Thump, thump—" it was violent and distinct.

At this moment, she clearly realized how nervous and concerned she was about Nangong Liuyun.

"Yes, Second Brother is in trouble. I'll explain on the way, let's go!" Bei Chenying's voice was anxious and urgent.

"Alright, I'll go with you now." Su Luo was only wearing a plain-colored dress, but without time to change, she rushed off with Bei Chenying.

"Young Miss…" Lu Luo had just brought a bowl of White Fungus and Lotus Seed Soup for Su Luo, but when she looked up, Su Luo had already vanished like a gust of wind.

Inside the carriage, there was total silence.

After a long silence, Bei Chenying finally couldn't hold back and spoke first, "Thank you for the gift yesterday, Sister-in-law."

"Those were what you deserved." Su Luo's voice was calm. Yesterday's events were a source of pain in her heart; if not necessary, she really didn't want to mention them.

However—

Since Bei Chenying still had the mind to make small talk, it proved that Nangong Liuyun's situation hadn't reached a critical level of danger yet.

Therefore, her heart, which had been in her throat, slowly settled down.

Bei Chenying shook his head, his beautiful, clear eyes staring at Su Luo. "Do you know what was inside those raw stones after they were cut open?"

"What was it?" Su Luo said, feigning indifference. In reality, how could she not know what was inside?

"Every single raw stone actually contained a crystal stone! Every single one!" Bei Chenying shook his head in disbelief, his expression slightly excited. "Sister-in-law, how on earth did you do it? This is simply impossible!"

For a great Family like the Bei Chen, they naturally employed many Stone Gamblers to obtain crystal stones for the Family Disciples to use in their Cultivation.

But in all his life, Bei Chenying had never seen a miraculous existence like Su Luo.

He was certain there was no cheating involved, because he had provided the raw stones himself, and everything had happened right before their eyes.

Su Luo had grabbed the raw stones as if at random, but every single one of them contained a crystal stone, and they were all high-grade ones at that!

Could it be that Little Luo Luo's eyes could see through the incredibly hard raw stones to the crystal stones inside?

Bei Chenying stared intently at Su Luo's eyes with a worshipful gaze, as if looking at a deity.

However, Bei Chenying immediately dismissed his own hypothesis. He shook his head firmly; it was impossible. Su Luo's strength was so low; no matter how much she trained those eyes, she couldn't have reached the level of being able to see through the surface of a raw stone directly to its core.

It must be said, Bei Chenying, you stumbled upon the truth, yet you dismissed it yourself… Sigh.
