Chapter 124: Willing to Fall from Heaven for You 9

Huang Ze, who held a membership card for the optical shop, was rejected. The reason for the refusal was that Le Yixian already had a spare pair at home. Huang Ze was deeply disappointed. Seeing that Lin Xuan’s invitation to have his clothes changed was also rejected, he felt a little better inside; after all, in his eyes, Lin Xuan was a failure who couldn't even score 60 on a Chinese exam and was unworthy of hanging out with them.

"Class representative, do you want to get contact lenses? I’ll pay for them. You’re so pretty, why wear those ugly glasses? Let your face be seen. I promise that if you do, that guy who usually doesn't do or turn in his homework will finish it on time every day." Lin Xuan stared longingly at Le Yixian’s face and added, "I’ve never seen anyone as good-looking as you."

Le Yixian felt his words were a bit exaggerated. She already knew that he was someone from the other side, the side of Hell—and Hell was home to Lucifer, once hailed as the "Light of the Morning Star." Who could compare to him in beauty?

"Class rep, what’s with that expression? I’m serious!" Noticing the "Are you kidding me?" and "Even if you sweet-talk me, I’m still not letting you copy my Chinese homework" look on Le Yixian’s face, Lin Xuan widened his eyes and pointed at An Mira and Huang Ze nearby. "If you don't believe me, ask them."

Noticing Le Yixian’s gaze landing on her, An Mira nodded quickly. "Yes, she’s incredibly beautiful!"

Huang Ze pushed up his glasses and gave a slight nod. "She's alright, I guess."

Le Yixian: "..."

Suddenly, a thought crossed her mind: her current appearance was her appearance in the real world. Li Yue had said that in the world of consciousness, Ke Yuandao was a god. If Ke Yuandao thought she was beautiful, then the consciousness of other characters would be influenced by the god's consciousness, making them perceive her as beautiful—the most beautiful in the world.

So, Ke Yuandao was in this world. But where was he? Le Yixian hadn't sensed his presence at all recently. Was he hiding that well?

[God’s Sanctuary Group Chat:]

Starlight Emerald: @DomesticatedCutie, where are you??

Fight Me: Probably taking advantage of being in the human realm to have some fun with her little cutie.

Village Belle: What?

Fight Me: Just look at her name, @DomesticatedCutie.

Starlight Emerald: ...

Village Belle: ...

Starlight Emerald: Is she that bold?

Village Belle: What of it? Being in the human realm, it’s normal to let yourself be free and easy. Human lifespans are short anyway.

Starlight Emerald: ???

Starlight Emerald: Do you have a little lover too?

Village Belle: Pfft, what little lover? The one I have is my little treasure.

Fight Me: Oh? Who is it? Someone I know? The literature commissioner from Class 3?

Village Belle: That was two weeks ago.

Fight Me: The class beauty from Class 5?

Village Belle: That was last week.

Fight Me: ...

Starlight Emerald: ...

DomesticatedCutie: Scumbag.

Fight Me: Agreed +1.

Starlight Emerald: Agreed +10086.

Le Yixian opened the group chat because she had something serious to ask these jokers. She asked: "Do you guys think it's possible for someone in this world to be in one place, yet be able to see events happening in far-off places at any time?"

Starlight Emerald: Need you even ask? Obviously, it's the Father God.

Father God—Jehovah. Le Yixian put down her phone, her expression complex. Come to think of it, that Father God had always remained hidden behind a curtain; she truly didn't know what he looked like. Could it really be Ke Yuandao? But that made no sense.

After school on Friday, Le Yixian decided to return to Heaven to get to the bottom of things. If that Father God really was Ke Yuandao, she wasn't coming back down.

"Xiao Xian," An Mira called out, stopping her before she could leave. "Could you accompany me shopping?"

"No," Le Yixian refused without thinking.

An Mira’s face fell, and she grabbed her arm, shaking it. "Just come with me! I want to buy something and need your opinion!"

"I have things to do tomorrow," Le Yixian said.

An Mira looked at her and smiled. "Just come with me now."

The shopping mall was exceptionally crowded on Friday. An Mira wandered around, looking at men’s clothing, watches, and other items. The two shopped from six until nine in the evening, moving from the large mall to the night market streets, yet An Mira still hadn't found what she was looking for.

"What exactly do you want to buy?" Le Yixian asked while eating octopus balls.

"Something quite special," An Mira stroked her chin, organizing her thoughts. "The kind of thing that makes people unable to look away once it’s brought out, something that would shock everyone the moment it appears—something high-end, elegant, and beautiful."

"What are you buying it for?" Le Yixian asked curiously.

A suspicious blush appeared on An Mira’s face. "Well, that idiot Lin Xuan’s birthday is coming up. He helped me improve my math grades quite a bit, so I decided to just buy him something to repay him."

Just buy him something?

Le Yixian didn't say anything, then asked, "Do you want to sleep over at my place tonight?"

"Huh??" An Mira looked confused.

Le Yixian said, "It’ll be very late by the time we finish, and the place where you live is too remote and unsafe."

After chatting for a bit, An Mira decided to stay the night at her friend’s house, remarking with emotion that she had never stayed over at a friend’s house before.

Ten minutes later, An Mira stopped in front of a shop in the night market. A look of pleasant surprise appeared on her face as she pointed at an ornament in the display window and told her friend, "This is it. This is what I want to buy."

"..."

"Are you sure you want to buy this?" Le Yixian asked, speechless.

An Mira’s eyes were already glowing. "Don't you think it’s exceptionally beautiful? It’s so unique. I feel that once it’s brought out, Lin Xuan’s eyes will definitely be fixed on it."

His eyes would certainly be fixed on it, that was for sure. Le Yixian wanted to make a snide remark, but she didn't even know where to start.

An Mira had already pushed open the door and pointed at the sample in the window, shouting to the owner, "Boss, I want this one."

"The young lady has a sharp eye! This gift is the one students have been buying the most this month." The boss was rotund and wore a smile. "For an extra ten, I can engrave it. Do you want an engraving? Send your most sincere blessings to your boyfriend."

"Boss, what are you saying? He’s not my boyfriend!" An Mira stomped her foot.

"Haha, well, do you want the engraving?" the boss asked with a laugh.

An Mira: "Engrave it!"

An hour later, An Mira walked out of the shop, happily hugging a large, wrapped box. Le Yixian, who had witnessed the entire process, offered a moment of silence for Lin Xuan, who was about to receive this gift.

It was nearly eleven o'clock, and there were few people on the streets. An Mira was so excited she was practically skipping as she walked. Le Yixian was walking beside her when, suddenly, her expression hardened. She shoved An Mira aside and dove out of the way herself.

"BOOM!!!" A cold, shimmering spear descended from the sky, slamming heavily into the exact spot where they had been standing just a moment before.
