Chapter: Chapter 40
“Yo, you saw his true face, how is it, pretty?”
When Bai Ling arrived at Leticia’s house with the ‘Insight’ glasses wrapped in tissues, the Demon Lord lady was leaning against the sofa looking at the TV with a dejected expression.
In front of her was a plate of sliced apples, with some small snacks next to the apples. This life was truly blissful.
Seeing Bai Ling, Leticia beckoned to her and casually asked the question from just now.
“What fruit does Miss Bai like to eat?” Xue’er, who opened the door for Bai Ling, asked very respectfully, standing aside with her head bowed.
Bai Ling shook her head, “No need, I won’t be staying long.”
Su Qi was still with Xiao Ya, and Bai Ling was still somewhat worried about Leticia’s sister.
“Xue’er, don’t mind her. If this girl wants something, she’ll say it herself. She doesn’t have the concept of politeness in her mind,” Leticia said to Xue’er.
Bai Ling was someone who simply didn’t understand social niceties. In her world, polite refusals simply didn’t exist.
Just understand what she says directly, this girl won’t have any ulterior motives.
“I saw him. He looks similar to his disguised appearance, just with some details modified.” Bai Ling sat next to Leticia and returned the lenses to her. “You need to improve this thing, it’s uncomfortable to wear.”
“If it’s uncomfortable, don’t use it. If you use it, don’t complain,” Leticia retorted unceremoniously. She lent you something and you’re still complaining, can you have some shame?
Anyway, Leticia herself couldn’t use this thing, so how others felt using it? What did that have to do with her?
Bai Ling’s words were directly blocked by Leticia’s statement. After a long while, the white-haired girl said to the TV, “You still like watching this?”
The TV was playing the news. In Bai Ling’s impression, Leticia didn’t seem like someone who liked watching TV.
She should be playing games as soon as she had free time, right? Watching the news should be a habit of Xue’er or old people.
“This is called staying informed about world affairs, so that I won’t be caught unaware when disaster strikes.” Leticia pouted. She really didn’t want to work anymore, but that didn’t mean she wanted to be isolated from the world.
If she really wanted to be isolated from the world, why wouldn’t she run to a small mountain village in the remote corners of the demon realm?
Coming to the most prosperous central city of humans, wasn’t it precisely because she still wanted to enjoy life?
“By the way, do you know that demon?” Leticia asked about Su Qi.
She was very concerned about all news regarding demons, as it profoundly affected whether her peaceful life could continue.
If Su Qi was a demon of high status, then Leticia would have to consider running away again.
After all, she was Bai Ya’s good friend, so Bai Ya would definitely want her good friends to meet each other. When they met, the other person would directly shout “Your Majesty,” and wouldn’t that be awkward?
Leticia couldn’t just silence the person, and she couldn’t use disguise magic either. Bai Ya, a curious girl, would definitely ask, “Sister Qianqian, why do you look different from before?”
It would be difficult to explain.
As for whether she could make that demon keep the secret and not let other demons know, Leticia didn’t dare to gamble on that.
Who knew how much support Qila could gain in the demon realm in the years she was gone? It was possible that Qila was now even more prestigious than her former self.
“I don’t know him,” Bai Ling said with a cold face, lying.
She knew she wasn’t good at lying, so she could only minimize her facial expressions and words as much as possible to avoid revealing any flaws.
“How many demons do you know?”
“Two.” Bai Ling held up two fingers. “You, and your sister.”
“Oh, this…” Leticia suddenly felt like an idiot.
Bai Ling only knew two demons, and one was here. That Su Qi certainly couldn’t be Qila, right?
Then Bai Ling definitely didn’t know that demon.
“The only demons who need to enter my sight are you two sisters.” Bai Ling slowly recovered from lying, and she had already returned to her original appearance.
Although her state didn’t seem to have changed much in Leticia’s eyes.
“At least give me some face, those Four Heavenly Kings you carefully selected.”
“Four Heavenly Kings… too weak, they have no presence.” Bai Ling stated that the Four Heavenly Kings were all trash, not worth her attention.
Before Leticia defeated them, almost everyone only knew Leticia, the Demon Lord; after Leticia became dejected, the Four Heavenly Kings also had no presence, basically acting as Qila’s followers.
They truly had no prestige.
However, this responsibility might have to be borne by Leticia herself. During her time as Demon Lord, she was too ruthless and merciless. The Four Heavenly Kings were merely playthings that could be manipulated at will.
It was indeed normal for them to have insufficient presence. Who would pay attention to four Heavenly Kings who were merely mouthpieces for the Demon Lord?
