Moreover, after the two meteorites merged, the spiritual energy on them was so rich that Gu Man had never seen it before.
However, even so, this bit of spiritual power was still too poor in her era. However, Gu Man did not ask for too much. After all, it was already exceptionally rare for one to have such spiritual power after their spiritual power subsided.
Gu Man rubbed the bead in her pocket. It felt extremely good to the touch. At the time she touched it, there were still traces of spiritual energy entering her fingertips. However, this spiritual energy felt familiar.
She composed herself and was about to walk forward when a hand reached out from behind and grabbed her arm. A familiar voice sounded. “Gu Man?”
She turned around and saw a tall and mighty figure standing there. Although he was wearing a mask, Gu Man recognized him at a glance. “Why are you here?”
The mask on his face suggested that he did not want to expose his ident.i.ty, so Gu Man did not call out his name.
Xiang Yin stood there and naturally held Gu Man’s hand. “I’m here to do something. Why are you here?”
Gu Man took out the small bead from her pocket. “1 want to find something that can store the small bead.”
This bead was really not as big as a meteorite. It was not like the meteorite and could be sensed the moment it was lost.
“I know of one.” Xiang Yin pulled Gu Man forward and turned into a few alleys before stopping at a shop with very dim lights.
He pushed open the door and walked in. Gu Man was shocked to see the lady boss standing there.
This was because the lady boss’s face was especially familiar. She was the lady boss of the clothing shop in Hualian Mall that was especially out of place.
The lady boss looked at the two of them with an indescribable expression on her face. It was as if she recognized them, but also as if she did not.
“May I know what your needs are?” The lady boss brought them into the shop. The interior of the shop was similar to the previous clothing shop, but there were no more clothes in the shop.
“I wonder if the lady boss has opened any other shops before? For example, clothes?” Gu Man asked calmly as she followed behind the lady boss.
“No.” Unexpectedly, the lady boss denied it without hesitation. “1 have a common face. It’s possible that Miss Gu is mistaken.”
When Gu Man heard this, she looked up at the lady boss. Her bright and beautiful face could not be a.s.sociated with the word common.
Since the lady boss did not want to tell her, she did not ask further. Instead, she looked at Xiang Yin. Xiang Yin must have known about it when he was with her.
However, when Xiang Yin saw the lady boss’s face, he did not show any surprise. Thinking about how he was the one who brought her to this shop, Gu Man suppressed her curiosity and did not continue asking.
However, when she took a step forward, Gu Man suddenly reacted. She had yet to introduce herself, but the lady boss directly pointed out her name.
The lady boss was already standing at the front desk. “Miss Gu, take it out.”
Gu Man suppressed the doubts in her heart and placed the things in her pocket on the table.
The lady boss held the small bead in her hand and spun it two or three times. Her eyes flickered with a few lights.
“This bead is good stuff. Miss Gu, you have to protect it well.” The lady boss placed the bead aside and opened a small wooden box. The red velvet cushion made the bead shine even more brightly, and the curvature of the indentation matched the size of the bead.
Gu Man stared at it for a while and quickly looked away.
“Are you planning to embed this bead on an object? However, 1 don’t suggest you do this because this bead is not complete,” the lady boss said with a smile.
However, Gu Man’s pupils constricted because of his words. Almost instantly, she pressed down on the table and approached the lady boss’s bright face. The spiritual power on her body was also blowing wantonly. “Who exactly are you?”
The lady boss asked suspiciously, but there was no fear on her face. She was not surprised by the sudden wind. She still had a faint smile on her face. “I’m just the manager of a shop.. I wonder what Miss Gu means?”
