I'll Teach You the Soul-Controlling Eight Needles First!
However, Su Xiaoxiao couldn't help but laugh at her words, "Since you said the girls are going together, then let's go together."
After she finished speaking, apart from Qiu Yun'er was still confused, Ling Luoluo couldn't help but chuckle.
"..." Ling Mengxue thought silently to herself, "I must get Xi Yan to give her a good talking to later," without arguing back.
That's it. But the illusion has lasted for so long that the Illusory Realm is starting to become unstable. I'm afraid it might suddenly fail, leaving me speechless and socially dead on the spot.
Is the twelve-hour description a lie?
Soon, the car Su Xiaoxiao had called arrived; it was a stretched black Lincoln.
The chauffeur got out of the car, opened the door, and invited the group inside.
However, Qiu Yun'er felt quite disappointed that she couldn't go on a "date" with Ling Mengxue alone today. What if she suddenly transferred schools again? Wouldn't that mean she would really have no chance?
Compared to her, the other two were both harboring ulterior motives.
Whether it was intentional or not, even though there was plenty of space behind them, Su Xiaoxiao and Ling Luoluo insisted on sitting very close to Ling Mengxue.
You can almost smell their faint fragrance, fresh and wonderful, without any additives.
The problem was that they were all very handsy; as soon as they got on the bus, they started groping her, making Ling Mengxue feel a tingling sensation all over her body, almost causing her to collapse.
'I should have worn more clothes today. If I hadn't been too lazy to wear pantyhose, I would have felt a little better. I thought I had gotten used to the feeling of being chilled to the bone, but I didn't expect to be so cold.' Ling Mengxue sighed silently.
Fortunately, Qiu Yun'er was sitting right by the window and didn't notice anything unusual.
Only Ling Luoluo and Su Xiaoxiao, who know everything, would dare to be so bold.
"Sister Xiao Xiao, you're putting me in a difficult position. Does Xi Yan know about this?"
"Hehe, wasn't it Xi Yan who allowed it? You can ask Luo Luo if you don't believe me."
"Yes, sis... brother, Sister Xi Yan said that as long as you don't bully her, you can play however you want."
Ling Mengxue: (°ー°)
Qiu Yun'er: (???*)
Driver: <(?????)>
Then, at Su Xiaoxiao's instruction, the driver parked the car in front of the restaurant.
Ling Mengxue had heard of Tang Family Private Cuisine Restaurant.
She passed by here several times but never went in, mainly because her wallet wouldn't allow it.
However, that's all in the past for her now; buying it directly wouldn't be a problem.
This private restaurant is very famous in Linzhuo. It is said that the owner, Tang Laushan, was once a chef at the national banquet level, and has won countless gold medals in chef competitions. His culinary skills have reached a superb level.
Even his apprentices are all comparable to Michelin three-star chefs. His eldest apprentice, Lin Qi, can even use sword energy to cut vegetables, which is simply unbelievable and almost mythical.

"It's my treat. Order whatever you want. Don't try to save me money. I'll argue with anyone who tries to save money for me!"
Su Xiaoxiao took the lead and walked at the very front, turning back to smile at the others.
Today she wore a simple light purple off-shoulder dress, with purple eyes and hair, and her features were so delicate that she looked like a doll. She was stunningly beautiful, indescribably cute, and there was a hint of charm between her brows.
For some reason, Ling Mengxue always felt a strange sense of guilt whenever she walked with these girls, especially the two little girls.
Everything seems normal, but something still feels off. Could it be that I'm just imagining things? (`Δ?)
When I entered the venue, almost all the seats were full, and the few empty seats had already been reserved.
The fact that these handsome men and beautiful women walked together, with the girls intentionally or unintentionally leaning towards Ling Mengxue, immediately attracted a lot of hostility from onlookers.
The restaurant's interior is decorated in a very elegant style, not in the traditional Chinese style, but more like Nordic minimalism, with floor-to-ceiling windows for natural light and crystal glass tabletops.
Tang Family Private Cuisine Restaurant is so popular that it only accepts forty tables a day.
The most important reason is that they place great emphasis on quality and strive for excellence, which is why they have this regulation.
Sometimes, reservations for Tang Family Private Cuisine Restaurant can be booked months in advance.
Furthermore, during holiday periods, they only serve five tables per day and do not accept à la carte orders; they're too lazy to make money.
That's how exaggerated it is!
"Sister Xiao Xiao is awesome! I've never eaten here before. I've heard the food is amazing. Since you're treating, I won't be polite."
Ling Mengxue gave an awkward smile; the four of them had already taken their reserved seats.
"If you want to eat here, I'll invite you here every day!" Ling Luoluo said, pouting her cheeks.
Su Xiaoxiao raised an eyebrow, smiled and nodded, completely unconcerned, "I made the appointment two years ago, and it just so happens to be time now."
Ling Mengxue: "..."
Qiu Yun'er: "666!"
"Pick whatever you want to eat!" Su Xiaoxiao ordered a few dishes she liked and casually handed the menu over.
"Scrambled eggs with Tomato!"
"Crossing the Bridge Rice Noodles!"
"Snowflake beef, chicken soup for the soul, fresh braised pork belly, Australian lobster, dry pot spicy chicken, boiled small yellow croaker, bird's nest and lotus seed soup, stir-fried green peppers with farm-style sauce..."
Everyone looked at the menu.
We casually ordered more than a dozen dishes!
Anyway, if Miss Su is treating, people will be angry if I don't spend enough!
Although the reason is a bit strange, that's really the case.
Tang's Restaurant's dishes are generally quite expensive. A very ordinary stir-fry from the countryside costs 108 yuan, and a steamed grouper dish costs more than 2,000 yuan. All the dishes together cost more than 10,000 yuan.
That's fucking expensive!
It's a total rip-off!
A simple stir-fry dish at a small restaurant costs less than 20 yuan, but here it's 108 yuan?
Could this vegetable have been irrigated with Nongfu Spring water?
This is outrageous!
A little over ten thousand yuan is enough to organize a super large gathering; usually, when a few classmates get together to eat out, the cost is no more than two hundred yuan.
More than twenty minutes later...
"Hehe, the chicken soup is here~ Please wait a moment, guests... Oh, Ling Feng? And Miss Su and Luo Luo too, even Qiu is here?"
Everyone was stunned for a moment when they saw the girl carrying the plate.
"Tang Ling."
"Sister Tang Ling".
At that moment, the waitress wearing a wrap skirt turned out to be an old acquaintance of theirs.
Su Xiaoxiao hadn't expected the group to have such a connection. She smiled slightly and said, "The last time we met, wasn't it on that train traveling to and from Chongming City?"
"Yes, what a coincidence to run into you here." Tang Ling was overjoyed to see her classmate here, her face beaming with smiles. "Since you rarely come here, this meal is on me!"
After Tang Ling explained, everyone realized that the restaurant was actually owned by her father, and that Ling Mengxue and the others shouldn't worry about it and could just splurge.
As for why this filial daughter would say such a bizarre thing, it's probably because she was too enthusiastic and didn't notice.
As one or two dishes were placed on the table, Tang Ling patted her skirt and prepared to leave.
"Sit down and eat together, it's a rare opportunity to get together," Su Xiaoxiao quickly called out, and the others understood at the same time.
"Hehe, Brother Lin is calling me. He probably needs something, so don't worry about me." Tang Ling chuckled, looking charming and adorable. "You guys eat up! Drinking soup is such a treat. This chicken was cut by Brother Lin; it's absolutely delicious!"
Everyone: "..."
Half an hour later...
Wow! It's delicious!
"It tastes absolutely amazing!"
"Even the most ordinary stir-fry from a farmhouse is cooked to perfection, with only the freshest ingredients used. Clearly, there's a reason why it's expensive!"
"However, compared to what my brother made, it still feels a bit lacking!"
Ling Luoluo licked the plate clean, her mouth full of oil, made a casual comment, and then continued to wolf down her food.
Although her belly is small, she has a huge appetite; she can eat five bowls of rice in one meal!
The more you eat, the more delicious it becomes!
At that moment, Ling Mengxue received a phone call from an unknown number.
"Hello? Is this Brother Ling Feng? How come you ran so fast? And you even put both locators on other people?"
"..." Ling Mengxue frowned slightly. She naturally recognized Yi Yun's voice, but how could he have the nerve to say it so openly after hiding the locator on someone else? Was he really that shameless?
It's good enough that you didn't confront him!
"Detective Yi, is there anything else? I won't pursue the matter of you secretly planting two GPS trackers on me, but what's with sending my friends to a mental hospital?"
"This..." Faced with Ling Mengxue's questioning, Yi Yun was speechless for a moment. After all, he had indeed made a mistake in what he did, and now that someone had pointed it out to his face, he was extremely embarrassed.
That's just how the world is; some things are better done than said.
"So, brother, how much compensation do you need for emotional distress?"
"Is this a problem that money can solve? Do you think every problem can be solved with money?" Ling Mengxue raised her eyebrows and questioned directly, her anger barely contained.
Yi Yun was dumbfounded. "Otherwise, what kind of compensation do you want? As long as it's within a reasonable range, we can help you. Don't worry, as a Special Affairs Bureau, we can even help you get some magical artifacts and spirit stones."
"You need to pay more!"
"..."
So all you care about is money, huh? After a moment of silence, Yi Yun nodded silently. "How much do you need?"
"Just help me and my friend get back the money we were scammed out of by Super Awesome Tech Unlimited."
"It's nothing, I'll cover it first. So, could you please tell us your home address, Brother Ling? We really have something very important to discuss with you, Brother Ling, and we can't wait any longer."
"Hmm... that's settled then. Remember to transfer my share to the account first. I'll be extremely grateful!"
Beep--!
"..."
How did the questions go?
She was still in that taxi, but this time Yan Ying looked somewhat surprised.
"Not enough chips." Yi Yun stroked his chin, a thoughtful look in his eyes.

Fanghua City
Inside the Gorilla Psychiatric Hospital, Zhao Ping lay listlessly on his hospital bed, playing SK mobile game to pass the time.
Originally, Dr. Zhang said that he could leave after a mental examination using a magical artifact, but he ended up being detained here as a mentally ill person after saying a few extra words.
He was completely devastated!
The problem is that his parents found out. He's definitely doomed this time; even the King of Heaven himself couldn't save him!
On the bed next to him, Zhao Lei was also lying there with a worried look on his face, rolling around on the bed like a salted fish turning over, making the bed board rumble.
A caregiver stood at the door, and upon hearing the noise coming from inside the room, frowned slightly and angrily opened the door.
