“Beidou clenched his teeth and said, ‘I’ll go check it out…’
Beidou cautiously approached the danger, not knowing where he had acquired a mirror. Using a cunning angle of reflection, he finally saw clearly whose name was displayed on Ye Wanzwan’s phone…

“I can’t believe it! It’s him again!”
“Who? Who?” The others urged in hushed voices.
Beidou returned to the corner and excitedly said, “The owner of the Independent State Vinegar Factory!”
Qixing furrowed his brow. “It’s him again.”
“Huh? The owner of the Independent State Vinegar Factory? Who is that?” The Grand Elder and Second Elder looked puzzled, and Qiushui was also completely clueless about the situation.
Beidou said in a secretive tone, “He’s the man Maple Sister has recently taken a liking to. Previously, they were all lovey-dovey, exchanging texts and calls every day, calling each other baby and dear… But what’s going on tonight? Could it be… they broke up?”
Qixing: “…”
Grand Elder: “Who is this person? How dare he reject our Alliance Leader!”
Third Elder: “Who is he? Capture him for our Alliance Leader!”
Qiushui found it hard to believe; Xiao Feng is already with Emperor Ji, how could she be interested in another man?
Amidst the chaos, Ye Wanzwan suddenly collapsed onto a chair and fell into a deep sleep.
Beidou stared at Ye Wanzwan, carefully observing her for a moment before grinning widely, “Oh my god, you scared me! Nothing happened; Maple Sister just fell asleep!”
Qixing: “…”
The elders exchanged looks. Was she really just asleep… What if she sleepwalks later?
“Let me tell you a story. I had a friend back in college. His roommate had somnambulism. One night, in the middle of his sleep, he somehow got hold of a watermelon knife, jumped off the bed, lifted their shirts, and started patting their bellies. While doing so, he was shaking his head as if disapproving. My friend was terrified.” Beidou quickly recounted.
“What do you mean?” Qiushui was bewildered.
“The next day, my friend asked his roommate about it, and he said he dreamt of eating watermelon. He was about to cut it, but none of the watermelons were ripe.” Beidou laughed heartily.
Upon hearing this, Qiushui gave Beidou a disdainful look. Was this a horror story or what?
Before Beidou could say anything else, Ye Wanzwan’s phone screen lit up.
Curious, Qiushui looked over at Ye Wanzwan’s phone.
“Is that the vinegar seller?” Beidou quickly asked.
Qiushui shook her head in response. It was a video call, not a regular phone call…
Beidou snatched the phone, and they answered the video call.
In the video, a man dressed formally, with eyes that seemed like they had been frozen for thousands of years, appeared. When he saw Beidou in his own video, the man’s eyebrows lightly furrowed.
“What the… Shura Lord?!”
Seeing the man in the video, everyone present was dumbfounded. Why would the Shura Lord video call their Alliance Leader?
Could it be that the Shura Lord is the vinegar seller?
“The Shura Lord… has the Shura Clan now switched to selling vinegar?” Beidou looked utterly confused at the video.
“Can you be more eloquent…” Qiushui pushed Beidou aside and took the phone, wearing a smile on her face. “Shura Lord, it’s late. Is there something…”
Before Qiushui could finish her sentence, the video call was instantly ended.
Qiushui: “…” Does she have no dignity?
“The Shura Lord contacted the Alliance Leader this late; there must be something important. Call him back!” Beidou urgently said.”
