28 Cease-fire

Bang! 

Wei Jiayi was hit by the spiritual energy from Feng Ji which blasted him out of his seat.

He did not sustain any injuries as this was still not enough to really hurt him.

Wei Jiayi looked at the girl who was fiercely looking at him, her small body was ready to attack at anytime.

The red hair, as well as the red eyes, reminded him of distant memories.

'Why is Feng Ji here? Does that mean she's here too?!' Wei Jiayi thought to himself with disbelief, before immediately rejecting the idea and shook his head. He did not want false hope.

It's impossible for them to be in the mortal domain. The Heaven's restriction would not allow it.

Wei Jiayi silently looked at Feng Ji. Everything about this girl looked familiar, but also different.

He also took time to really look at Gao Lan Mei.

Her ink black her was waist long. The strands looked so soft and silky that it was tempting to touch. Her brows were perfectly shaped paired with the eyes of the darkest shade of black.

The face was covered with a blue veil, that created the impression that she was not approachable. She also wore a blue robe that's made of an expensive silk.

Releasing a deep sigh, "Let's have a cease-fire. This is not going anywhere. I owe you. You owe me." Wei Jiayi decided.

While he was not sure if this woman was connected to her, he would not do anything that he might greatly regret in the future.

He would be butchering his remaining honor if he had hurt his own benefactor. It will be a shame to even see her.

Gao Lan Mei breathed a sigh of relief. She was more than aware that even if Feng Ji were here, they would still not be a match for this man.

"I agree." Ceasefire sounds reasonable. However, she would keep this incident at the back of her head to get even in the future.

She would not be weak forever!

"First, return my pet." Wei Jiayi said.

"Not yet." Gao Lan Mei deadpanned. "I will not have any leverage against you." That was her last card. She did not have anything at hand yet aside from that.

Wei Jiayi's face turned black, "Fine! What do you want?" He compromised, but the scowl on his handsome face was still present.

Her mouth twitched, trying to fight a grin. This man looked like a spoiled child who failed to get what he wanted. She somehow felt that it's adorable.

Like a fluffy cat that she wanted to pat.

Thinking this, Gao Lan Mei's eyes glint. 'If he ever knew what I'm thinking, he might breathe fire from his mouth.' This man was dangerous.

Gao Lan Mei stood up and approached Wei Jiayi who immediately became alert.

She pulled pieces of paper from her sleeves and handed them to Wei Jiayi. Her eyes glinting with a warning just to remind him to not burn them.

"Cease fire, alright. I will not burn them," Wei Jiayi smirked and read all the papers content.

Xi Ma, on the other hand, was surprised by this interaction. It was the first time he saw Wei Jiayi with another expression towards another mortal that he just met.

Even them his aides, were mostly responded with an indifferent or a cold gaze. Wait till the other hear about this.

He really should check Miss Gao's background, so they would be more prepared next time.
