Chapter 686: Don’t You Know You Will End Up Miserable If You Interrupt Others’ Good Time?
The smile on Rick’s lips deepened. “The two ladies might have not paid much attention to Zi Yi before but she excels in several subjects and in particular, Chemistry. Not only did she win first place in the recent International Chemistry Competition, but she had also done something that attracted the attention of the whole Chemistry Department.”
Ye Li’er and Ge Danni made eye contact.
Ye Li’er planned to check up on Zi Yi later and she said to Rick, “I will think about it.”
Rick nodded his head and even specially reminded her. “There are still three days before the jadeite mines are open to the public. It’s best that you make up your mind beforehand. After all, you can humiliate Zi Yi before the event and at the same time, distract Lu Jingye… Don’t you wish to see Lu Jingye distracted due to Zi Yi’s affairs and get attacked from all sides, making him end up with nothing?”
When Rick mentioned the last sentence, the aura around his body turned sinister and Ye Li’er and Ge Danni were both startled.
Rick intended to let Ye Li’er think about it and he timely took his leave. “I still have something that I need to do, you two ladies can slowly think about it.”
After Rick left, he took out an earpiece from his pocket and said with a solemn tone, “Speak.”
The other party said something and the corner of his lips curved up. “As long as you find a way to lure away the robots around her, I’ll take care of the rest… Don’t worry, I have already thought of a brilliant idea.”
After the call ended, Rick clenched his cell phone and stared at a fixed point in front of him. His whole body was radiating a murderous aura.
Sometime later, he muttered with a twisted expression, “Lu Jingye, I will make you experience the pain of losing your loved one.”

…
When Zi Yi received a phone call from A.Uni of the city she was in, she got a surprise.
The Deputy Headmaster warmly extended her an invite. “Student Zi, you have shown all the students and teachers of our Chemistry Department your skills in the previous competition. We heard that you have arrived in City A, and on behalf of the Chemistry Department, I would like to sincerely invite you over as a guest.
“Of course, we hope that you can also come over as a guest speaker and show a public experiment to our students.”
Zi Yi did not immediately answer or accept the invite.
In the previous competition, from Country Em, there was a student from A.Uni. Even though the student did not manage to enter the practical experiment round, they did not mock M.Uni like the others.
The Deputy Headmaster also said over the phone, “When I heard the news of your arrival in City A, I even called up M.Uni’s Dean of the School of Chemistry. Your Dean is also supportive of you opening a practical experiment class in our school.”
Zi Yi said, “I will think about it.”
The Deputy Headmaster replied, “Alright, I hope that Student Zi can give us an answer as soon as possible, so that we can make the arrangements.”
Zi Yi responded with an ok and hung up the phone.
Unexpectedly, she received a call from M.Uni’s Dean of the School of Chemistry right after she hung up the phone.
The Dean laughed over the phone and said, “Little Zi, I believe you should have received a call from the Deputy Headmaster of A.Uni?”
Zi Yi responded. “Yes.”
“Little Zi, as you know, even though our M.Uni is one of the top ten famous universities around the world, our reputation is lacking compared to the top universities in Country A, Country D, Country E, Country Y, Country F, and Country R. However, it’s not that our university is inferior. It’s just that we have always been lacking an opportunity.
“Since A.Uni has extended an invitation, we hope that you can agree to it. This would be very beneficial to both you and our M.Uni’s reputation.”
Zi Yi was silent for several seconds before she said, “Alright, I understand.”
Shortly after, Zi Yi agreed to A.Uni’s Deputy Headmaster’s invitation.
Both of them discussed the time of the class and Zi Yi hung up the phone afterwards.
Subsequently, she headed to the study room.
She intended to inform Lu Jingye about this.
Lu Jingye was currently working and he looked over when he heard sounds of knocking.
“Ah Jing, I received a call from the Deputy Headmaster of A.Uni. He invited me to hold a practical experiment class tomorrow at nine in the morning.”
Lu Jingye thought about it and stood up to make his way over. With an apologetic tone, he said, “Sang Bo and I will be heading over to his jadeite mine tomorrow and I’m afraid I can’t accompany you.”
Zi Yi did not mind it at all. “In that case, I’ll head over alone.”
Lu Jingye was a little worried. “Rick and the rest will surely find a way to deal with you then.”
“Hmph! I should be the one worrying that they wouldn’t do anything to me. In that case, it saves me the trouble of luring out the person behind Rick.”
Lu Jingye lowered his eyes and thought for a while. “Bring along your robots with you tomorrow and I’ll also send a few bodyguards to tag along.”
“I don’t want bodyguards,” Zi Yi said. “It’s troublesome to bring bodyguards. Perhaps I might even have to rescue them when the time comes.”
Lu Jingye thought about it and found what she said reasonable. “Immediately give me a call when something happens.”
Looking at the man who was worried about her, Zi Yi put her arms around his neck and said, “Don’t worry, nobody can deal with me with all the good stuff I have on hand. What’s more, you should also pay attention to whether Rick would make mischief during your trip to the jadeite mines tomorrow.”
“Okay.” Lu Jingye held her waist and said, “We are well prepared.”
Just then, the sound of the door opening could be heard and Little Loli’s cutesy voice sounded. “I didn’t see anything, you can continue.”
Zi Yi did not let go of Lu Jingye either. She turned around and looked at Little Loli who covered her face but was peeping through the cracks of her fingers. “Don’t you know you will end up miserable if you interrupt others’ good time?”
Little Loli hastily tried to flatter Zi Yi. “Master, I didn’t mean to do it. I will definitely knock on the door first next time.”
“What are you here for?” Zi Yi could not be bothered to lecture her anymore.
Little Loli immediately said, “Master, I wish to go out and test my new abilities.”
Ever since Little Loli had an upgrade, she had constantly wanted to go out and test out her new abilities.
As such, she was looking all over the place for Zi Yi and when she did not manage to catch any glimpse of her Master, she guessed that her Master would be here.
Zi Yi thought about it for a moment and agreed. “Then head over to Ye Li’er’s place and test it out.”
“Does Master want me to spy on her?”
“Shadow III is also watching over there. If you have nothing to do, you can join him.”
“I’m free!”
Little Loli was about to leave after she said that, when Zi Yi called out to her, “You’re only allowed to monitor her, don’t do anything else.”
Little Loli had tons of ideas and Zi Yi did not want Little Loli to ruin her plans.
“Got it.”
Little Loli happily left the room.
Zi Yi turned back and looked at Lu Jingye and acted coquettishly. “Ah Jing, are you done with your work?”
Lu Jingye said with a straight face, “I’m done.”
Since his wife had asked, it clearly meant that she wanted him to accompany her. He would certainly satisfy her wish.
Zi Yi smiled in response. She let go of his neck and pulled him outside. “I got Shadow II to purchase a cutting machine. Let’s go out and have fun cutting the stones.”
“Alright.”
The cutting machine was placed on the left side of the courtyard’s wall. A canopy was set up there and the stones they had purchased previously were all piled up at the side.
At that moment, Shadow II and Shadow IV were currently making preparations for cutting the stones.
After Zi Yi came over, Shadow said to them, “Masters, all preparations are complete.”
Zi Yi tilted her head and looked at Lu Jingye as she said, “When I upgraded Little Loli yesterday, I also made something in passing. This can accurately cut the stones, let’s give it a try.”
Having said that, she threw out one of the circular balls in her hands.
