Saving the Heartthrob Frenemy-Chapter 164: ... jealoussss...

Qie Xieling was about to answer that there was no need for a quiz when the door was knocked. He glanced up, looking at the door while Jolie opened it.

Jolie wasn’t even surprised to see them standing outside there. With her hand on her waist, she said, "You are disturbing us."

King Luo had to admit that he had been a little irritable ever since what happened yesterday.

This feeling only intensified when he saw the two of them laughing and chatting animatedly like there were only the two of them left in the world.

He was very unhappy and even glared at the two of them but Eling showed no emotional change like he recalled nothing of what happened yesterday. Annoyed, he left.

This ugly feeling had been building up ever since. When he heard their conversation about that tiara and how Eling bought it for her, he couldn’t bear that sight any longer and left. In his anger he even broke a vase. Just now, when he saw Jolie taking away Eling’s money, he almost suffocated from the emotions about to spill over. He couldn’t quite comprehend where this much anger and annoyance stemmed from.

His eyes darkened, further seeing that she was even answering the door for him.

Jolie didn’t want to overdo it thus she let him in and sat back on the cushion. She continued with her scan for weaknesses ignoring the three crowding the room.

Qie Xieling glanced at them and said, "If you aren’t willing to accept my conditions, you should leave."

King Luo landed on top of the dresser close to the bed and said, "What do you want?"

Qie Xieling sat up and opened his mouth but before he could speak Jolie interrupted, "We want money."

Qie Xieling tilted his head slightly to look at Jolie whose view was blocked by Boran’s ginormous body. When their eyes met, Jolie asked, "What? We are both broke."

Qie Xieling grabbed the pillow and threw it at her, only for Jolie to feign an injury like a drama queen. "Ignore her," said Qie Xieling.

"Does she have to be here? This is a very important discussion," said Yunning seeming quite irritable.

"If I walk, he walks. We are a deal package. Buy one get one for free," said Jolie and Qie Xieling was starting to think that it would be better if Jolie went outside.

He was about to say something when Jolie raised her hand and said, "Nope, don’t even think about it."

Qie Xieling, "..."

"You hear her. She stays," he said and King Luo asked again,

"What do you want?"

"First, I want money for her. She is expensive," he said and Yunning crossed her arms across her chest while saying,

"I thought you only had one request?"

"That was twenty minutes ago. The terms have changed," he replied his fingers trembling slightly.

"Say it," said King Luo, his eyes terrifying the soul out of anyone who stared longer than they should.

"Secondly, transform me. I hate long hair and these curves make me very uncomfortable. I am not a delicate maiden."

"It’s not a complete transformation and you still have your tool so what’s your problem?" asked Boran and Qie Xieling almost flipped him off.

"I hate long hair plus my clothes don’t fit right. I would rather be transformed into an old man," he said and Yunning suddenly raised her hand about to turn him into a senile old man. If it weren’t for King Luo stopping her she would have done it.

"I also want these gone. You keep restraining me and it’s very uncomfortable," he said, shaking his wrists to draw attention to the magic suppression cuffs.

"Pass, pick something else," said King Luo’s voice abrupt.

Qie Xieling, "..."

"Fine, I want... I want the pendant in her possession," said Qie Xieling and it was only after blurting it out did he realise his intrusive thoughts had won.

"Fuck," he whispered under his breath while Yunning yelled,

"Are you crazy? This is something my mother left for me. Why would I give it to you?"

"Why not? You two are already fiance and fiancee so you don’t need it. Why not give it to me for the sake of your future happiness?" he said and Jolie’s one eye opened before she chuckled softly while whispering,

"Jealousssss... ouch." The second pillow had been thrown in her face.

"Your Majesty, tell him no. I can’t give it to him. It belongs to me. It’s my family heirloom," she said her body trembling with anger.

"Well, you can discuss it among yourselves. Come to me when you have made your decision." He felt so sour that he didn’t want them in front of him anymore.

The dismissive tone said everything so the three of them left. From his bed, he could hear Yunning yelling unhappily.

"Oh, you are so jealous. Just admit it. No judgement here, this is a safe space," said Jolie and Qie Xieling tried to find another pillow but they had all been thrown by him. He sighed as he slipped into the quilt.

"It’s still light outside. You can’t be sleeping already are you?" asked Jolie and Qie Xieling mumbled something under the quilt and from his tone, it was probably a curse word.

Jolie closed her eyes and continued messing with the system testing its boundaries.

"Master," said the system after experiencing a subtle feeling that its house had been intruded on by something sinister. It was a similar feeling like an entity or spirit had entered its house. It couldn’t see it nor prove its existence but it could sense something was off.

Leong Jinn spat out the gum in his mouth on a tissue and asked, "What?"

He had been awaiting the fall of GameX by spreading the rumours that its CEO was dead but that Qie woman took over while claiming that Qie Ranzhe had taken a much-needed hiatus.

This made Leong Jinn quite moody thus his mean tone towards the AI system. "Are ghosts real?"

Leong Jinn, "..."

"Are you high or something? I think you should lay off the horror movies because it’s screwing with your development. Ghosts? Hahahaha you must be out of your fuckin mind."

It seemed the system wasn’t convinced as it stammered, "Mas- master."

"I am busy. Go watch a comedy movie or something," he replied his tone dismissive.
