Magic Card Era: My Deck is Depressing

"Su Bai, what grudge do you have against her? Why are you acting like this when you meet her?"

Zhang Liao was curious. Su Bai usually liked to chat with the women in the association, so why was his attitude towards Gao Ling different?

"Look at her attitude, is she asking for a favor?"

“She’s from Kyoto, and she’s very arrogant. I can’t afford to be her friend.”

Upon hearing Su Bai's words, Zhang Liao immediately understood.

Gao Ling's way of speaking just now was indeed quite assertive, even completely different from her usual demeanor.

He didn't expect this to happen, so he's now in a dilemma.

"Actually, I didn't want it to be like this either, but her family has a lot of influence in Kyoto, so it's a bit difficult."

Although Zhang Liao was a man of few words and aloofness, he was still quite perceptive about who could offend him.

His friend is a member of the Kyoto Magic Card Master Association, and knows the Gao family, his relative, very well.

Actually, he was also advising Su Bai that he couldn't afford to offend this person.

"If this matter is causing you trouble, I'll just withdraw from the Magic Card Master Association."

"If that still doesn't work, then don't bother giving me any special talent spots in the college entrance exam."

If Su Bai, who has been reborn, were to remain so servile, what would be the point of living?

He won't be rude to people he respects.

He has no fear of those who use their power to suppress him.

"There's no need for that. I'll go talk to them again!"

He really didn't expect that Su Bai, who was usually so gentle, would be so tough.

He shouldn't have gotten involved in this; now he's caught in the middle.

No matter what, he must protect Su Bai.

After watching Zhang Liao leave, Su Bai found a comfortable place to stay.

He just wanted to see the attitude of the Magic Card Masters Association. After all, if he didn't feel safe here, he really would turn to the dark side.

Su Bai ordered a milk tea and lunch and started eating.

While he was eating, Zhang Liao walked in.

"Okay, she's gone."

He already felt guilty towards Su Bai for this; he shouldn't have approached Su Bai in the first place.

He also called his friend to explain the situation, and that resolved the issue.

"Hmm, shall we eat something together?"

"No need, I still need to study magic cards."

Compared to interacting with people, Zhang Liao preferred his career.

Su Bai finished his meal and had just left the entrance of the Magic Card Master Association.

Then I was blocked by someone.

"You, come with me!"

Gao Ling looked at Su Bai with a cold expression; no one had ever treated her like this before.

However, she was mainly angry because Jinru was waiting to see her make a fool of herself.

I'm allergic to women!

Nima!

Gao Ling heard this excuse again, and her already gloomy face turned even uglier.

However, she didn't want to give up this opportunity; she was determined to be better than Jinru.

Seeing that Su Bai seemed genuinely unwilling to go with her, she took matters into her own hands.

"Come with me, or I'll scream for help!"

. . .

"I'll go with you for Fatty's sake, but it's not because I'm afraid you'll scream for sex, understand?"

“The law enforcement officers are all people I know; they won’t believe what you’re saying.”

He's being closely watched by law enforcement now; going there would be like throwing himself into the lion's den.

Left with no other choice, Su Bai could only follow Gao Ling toward the nearby area.

High-class hotel!

Su Bai followed Gao Ling into the room.

As soon as the door closed, Gao Ling's previously cold expression immediately turned serious.

She looked at Su Bai's retreating figure with a frustrated expression, her eyes filled with helplessness.

"Su Bai, I was wrong about what happened before, and my attitude was bad."

Please forgive me!

She actually apologized!

Su Bai turned around and saw Gao Ling bending over, her attitude very polite.

However, that blinding white expanse made Su Bai dizzy.

He opened his eyes wide in exasperation as he was being shaken.

"You're not plotting anything, are you?"

"Honey trap?"

Hearing Su Bai's question, Gao Ling stood up straight with a helpless expression.

"I did all that before for the sake of face; I can't lose face for the Gao family."

So, Gao Ling told Su Bai about her difficulties.

It turns out that Gao Ling had a very low status in the Gao family because she was a girl and basically no one respected her.

She studied hard because she wanted to prove herself to her mother in the Gao family.

No matter how well she did in her studies, even after she was specially admitted to university, the Gao family still didn't change their opinion of her at all.

"I want to become stronger!"

"It's not that I can't say, it just depends on your attitude."

Su Bai felt that this person could still help him in Kyoto, and his next target was Kyoto.

After all, it's the capital of the Xia Kingdom, so it's bound to be easier than the xenophobic Shanghai.

Once he can establish his own power base in Kyoto, he can start to slack off.

However, judging from the current situation, his goal is not easy to achieve.

If we had help from people in Kyoto, it would be easier.

Coming to his senses, Su Bai decided to take a look at Gao Ling to see what her attitude was.

Then they saw Gao Ling, looking aggrieved, taking off her clothes!

What are you doing?!

"Are you thinking the wrong thing?!"

Su Bai spread his five fingers to cover his eyes, his words filled with a sense of justice!

Chapter 68: Deeply Scheming (Bonus Chapter)

68. Very scheming

Gao Ling's eyes were filled with tears.

The grievances she suffered were nothing compared to the fact that she could stand up for herself in the family.

No matter how unreasonable Su Bai's demands are, she will consider them.

This is the helplessness she faces in her position.

In ancient times, dynasties flourished.

Those princesses were all used as brides for political marriages, sacrifices for their families.

She was no exception; if she had no value to be used or could not demonstrate any value, she was less than a commodity.

Since that's the case, she might as well do things according to her own wishes.

"I have no money!"

"Waaaaah~"

The little train just sat at the door, showing no intention of moving.

Su Bai felt wronged.

He did nothing, so how did it turn out like this?

Could it be that this girl has a tendency to overthink things?

Su Bai wanted to figure out what this person was thinking.

So I've been watching intently ever since, afraid of being scammed.

But this little train is really white, oops, it really makes a "choo-choo" sound!

After waiting for a while, Gao Ling cried herself to sleep.

"Waaah, can you tell me how, waaah, to improve?"

Sobbing.

Su Bai couldn't help but laugh.
