Quick Wear: Boss, she won again by doing nothing

Chapter 957: Opposing Worlds (52)

Thirty years later

Tian Jie slowly opened his eyes, his vision blurry as if he had just experienced a long sleep. After his eyes adjusted, he saw a white ceiling without even a speck of dust.

As consciousness gradually returned, he scanned the room. The walls and furniture were a minimalist palette of gray and white, with clean, flowing lines. Aside from a unique oil painting hanging on the wall, the room was practically unadorned. A single hidden light strip emitted a faint glow, lending the space a quiet, serene feel.

Tian Jie slowly sat up, then stood up and walked to the floor-to-ceiling window.

Outside the window was an endless expanse of ocean and sky, the two converging into a blurred line in the distance. A faint gray hue permeated the air, and the whole world remained as depressing as ever.

Tian Jie stood quietly by the window, gazing at the turbulent sea. After an unknown amount of time, the door was gently pushed open. He turned around and saw a head with a familiar face cautiously poking its head in.

She first glanced at the empty bed, then turned her gaze to him standing by the window. When she saw him, her eyes suddenly lit up, and she said with a mixture of surprise and joy, "Brother Realm Master, you're finally awake!"

Tian Jie looked at Ling'er, with a complex emotion in his heart.

He has been sleeping for thirty years!

Over the years, Ling'er would open the door every day to see if he was awake. If he was awake, she would immediately notify Xiaohua so that she could leave.

After all, for so many years, she has been responsible for guarding the top floor, while Xiaohua is responsible for attending the weekly meetings.

Xiaohua and Xiaoxingxing are good friends. If it weren’t for Xiaoxingxing’s special arrangement, Xiaohua would have quit long ago!

Ling'er was thinking this in her heart, and her hand had unconsciously picked up the phone and quickly sent a message to Xiaohua: Brother Lord of the Realm, wake up, you don't need to come from this week onwards.

As soon as the message was sent, the girl on the other side immediately replied with an emoji of "kitten celebrating with a red wine glass", and then sent an emoji of "I'm gone", and then there was no further response.

Ling'er looked at Xiaohua's series of replies and couldn't help but giggle.

When Tian Jie saw Ling'er was so amused by the content on the phone, a faint smile appeared on his face.

"Where's Rong? Why isn't she here?" The long-lost mellow and magnetic voice reached Ling'er's ears, instantly diverting her attention from the mobile phone screen.

It seems that Brother Lord of the Realm will be able to recover his memory after waking up, just as Little Star said.

only……

"Ever since Little Star stabbed you that day, she left with Xiao Wei and Ming Xi."

That day, Xiao Xingxing walked to the bedside of the Lord of the Realm, holding a dagger in his hand, and asked her if she knew how to wake up the Lord of the Realm. She was confused at the time.

"I've already dealt with the culprit who caused the chaos between the worlds. I really have no interest in getting involved in the remaining trivial matters."

Xing Rong's words made Ling'er understand that the "waking up" she mentioned did not mean physical awakening, but wanted her brother, the Lord of the Realm, to recover his memory!

At that time, Tian Jie, who was lying on the bed and knew nothing, was still confused. He didn't know what Xing Rong was talking about, didn't understand why she pointed a dagger at him, and didn't know what she used to hold his body still so that he couldn't move.

He also had no idea why the woman who had saved him in the elevator one second ago would want to kill him with the same dagger here the next second.

Her eyes were like the surface of a frozen lake, perfectly still without a ripple, making it impossible to glimpse into her true inner thoughts. Her expression was also surprisingly calm, without the slightest emotion, as if none of this had anything to do with her.

Only the black dagger in her hand emitted a cold light.
