Chapter 14 Good Results and Bad Results 13

The madam's fawning voice rang out at the same time as the knocking, "Gentlemen and ladies, a young master is looking for you outside."

Ye Liangqing reacted quickly and tidied up the blueprints on the glass table.

She glanced at Shi Qinian instinctively, and seeing him nod, she stepped forward and opened the door.

As Zhao Zhao expected, it was the man in black robes outside the door. As soon as the door opened, she felt his gaze fixed on her. Zhao Zhao looked up impatiently and met his deep red eyes.

The man in black robes narrowed his eyes slightly and walked straight toward him, ignoring everyone else.

However, before he could reach him, he was blocked by the other three, who all asked in unison, "What are you going to do?"

The man in black robes had a good-natured look on his face. He smiled, his eyes constantly on Zhao Zhao. "Just catching up with a friend."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Zhao pushed them aside and walked towards the man in black robes, saying, "I don't know you."

"Didn't we just meet today?"

Zhao Zhao tilted her head slightly, her expression indifferent, "And then?"

"And that's how we got to know each other."

The man in black robes was like a leech; if Zhao Zhao hadn't been careful not to cause trouble at this time, she would have definitely stepped forward and stabbed him.

Zhao Zhao ignored him, and the others remained silent as well.

Seeing that things were not going well, the madam immediately closed the door and left.

A moment of silence fell over the scene.

However, the silence in the private room did not mean the singing and dancing downstairs had ended; the screaming and howling continued.

Seeing this, the man in black robes went forward and closed the window. He looked at Zhao Zhao and said earnestly, "Those things down there are vulgar and disgusting. Young friend, please do not look at or listen to them."

He then glanced at the untouched wine on the glass table and said, "Drinking is harmful to health and can lead to mistakes. It's best for young people to drink less."

He then looked around the private room. Wearing a gilded, carved mask, his emotions were unreadable, but his voice still held a smile. "You shouldn't be in a place like this."

Zhao Zhao: ……

Shi Qinian: ? ? ?

Jun Si and Ye Liangqing: !!!

The group looked at each other, bewildered by his lecture.

Zhao Zhao stared straight at him, a hint of suspicion in her eyes. "Who exactly are you?"

The man in black robes smiled and said, "Who I am is not important, as long as I will not harm you."

Then, he changed the subject, "Maybe I can even help you save Nayue."

As soon as he finished speaking, Shi Qinian and the others' eyes immediately sharpened, and they subtly adjusted their steps to surround him in a circle.

The man in black robes remained unhurried, “Get this straight, I am an ally—the Child of Time.”

Shi Qinian looked at him warily, as if trying to see his face through the mask, "How can you expect me to trust a demon like you?!"

"Tsk~ We've already said we're friendly, can't you understand human language?"

The man in black robes grew impatient, and black demonic energy emanated from his body.

Zhao Zhao stood in front of Shi Qinian. Upon seeing Zhao Zhao, the black-robed man immediately suppressed his black aura and softened his voice, "Zhao Zhao, I won't harm you."

Zhao Zhao probably knew his identity. His expression was inscrutable, but his voice remained calm. "Don't act recklessly. Put the bigger picture first."

The man in black robes laughed and said, "I'll listen to you."

Zhao Zhao nodded and waved for the other three to come over.

Jun Si was completely bewildered and asked, "Zhao Shenzi, what does this mean?"

Shi Qinian also worriedly said, "He is a demon, you must be careful not to be deceived by him."

Ye Liangqing looked warily at the man in black robes and echoed, "Yes, he doesn't look like a good person."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Zhao smiled slightly, a rare occurrence, and said to the man in black robes, "You seem unable to gain our trust."

The man in the black robe continued to smile, feigning distress, and asked, "Then what should we do?"

"You can leave, we don't need you."

Zhao Zhao waved her hand and used magic to open the door.

The man in black didn't move. He said, "I can help you save Nayue. I'm loyal and reliable!"

"unnecessary."

The man in black robes was puzzled. "Why not take a free helper?"

Zhao Zhao looked impatient and replied dismissively, "Because you're annoying."

Black-robed man: ......

He chuckled, "Then I'll come back later."

After saying that, he actually left without any hesitation.

Shi Qinian looked at the black-robed man's back, then turned to Zhao Zhao and asked, "Does Divine Child Zhao know this demon?"

Zhao Zhao nodded.

Seeing their worried expressions, Zhao Zhao explained, "He is Su."
