Lord of Mysteries 2: Circle of Inevitability

Chapter 986  Girlsʼ Day

”Yes.” Jenna also expressed confusion, ”I thought I would be kicked out of the dream immediately, but nothing happened.”

Franca thought for a moment and spoke, ”Is it that telling the truth about this world to dream figures other than Zhou Mingrui and a few others doesnʼt trigger an abnormal reaction? Or is Luo Shan special, a character lightly corrupted by that evil god of the Fantasy Association, no longer closely connected to the dreamʼs main consciousness?”

Jenna shook her head and answered honestly, ”I donʼt know.”

She paused, her eyes turning slightly as she said, ”If we can pacify Luo Shan this time, we can find an opportunity later to mention Mr. Fool to her, and see if thereʼs any special reaction, or if it causes me to be kicked out of the dream.”

”We can also try telling corresponding things to other dream figures and see what results.” Franca made an affirmative sound, reaching out both hands to support Jenna as she stood up from the toilet.

After finishing her washing up, she returned to the living room to see Lumina watching TV.

An idea struck her, and she said to Jenna, ”Should we invite Luo Shan over to play cards? Four people can play Shengji.”

”Iʼll ask and see if sheʼs willing.” Jenna understood that Franca wanted to find something for Luo Shan to do, some entertainment to ease her emotional state, and they could also use the card-playing opportunity to provide subtle psychological guidance.

Jenna immediately picked up her phone and sent Luo Shan a message.

After about seven or eight minutes, Luo Shan replied: ”Okay, after I eat breakfast. I just woke up.”

”Sheʼs willing to come,” Jenna told Franca and Lumina.

Lumina knew Luo Shan, aware that she was her colleague, and quickly stood up saying, ”Should I change back into menʼs clothes?”

”No need, no need. Just pretend you donʼt know her, act like youʼre another friend of ours,” Franca hurriedly shook her head.

If she really changed into menʼs clothes, wouldnʼt that make Luo Shan think of Li Ming?

After all, you two do look a bit alike!

Of course, as long as Lumina didnʼt wear menʼs clothes or pretend to be a man, no one would associate her with security guard Li Ming. Not to mention the fact that one was male and one was female, even in terms of appearance, at first glance, the difference was quite large, because when Lumian played the role of Li Ming, he used the Lie earring to lower his attractiveness and modify details.

Seeing this, Jenna, on behalf of the still somewhat muddled Franca, went through in her mind the potential problems that might arise when Lumina and Luo Shan meet. She then chatted with Anthony via WeChat about Luo Shan knowing the truth of the world, and consulted on the direction and strategies for psychological guidance.

Soon after, Luo Shan arrived on the 23rd floor and rang the doorbell.

At the same time, Jenna received a reply message from An Ruide: ”Talk to her about her past.”

Using a certain, experienced, and personally realistic past to reduce the current sense of disillusionment? Jenna roughly understood Anthonyʼs intention.

She immediately followed Francaʼs instructions and found two decks of playing cards.

The four of them gathered around the coffee table and started playing Shengji, with Lumina and Jenna as partners, and Franca and Luo Shan on the same team.

They werenʼt gambling for money—Jenna, Franca, and Lumina had no spare cash to gamble. Instead, they bet that whichever pair of partners first upgraded to A could stick five small paper notes on the losersʼ faces or draw funny patterns with washable paint.

After successfully upgrading to ”3”, Jenna looked at Luo Shan and casually started chatting, ”You mentioned before that your father was a police officer?”

”Yes,” Luo Shanʼs mood had been low all along. As she pushed her cards towards the center of the coffee table, she said, ”He was… severely injured while pursuing a cult leader with lots of blood on his heads, and died in the hospital.”

”Was he honored as a martyr?” Franca asked.

”Yes.” Luo Shan suddenly gave a self-deprecating smile, ”When I graduated from university, I actually had the opportunity to work as a civilian employee at the police department, but I also received an offer from the administrative department of the Intis Group. I hesitated for a long time, feeling that I was just an ordinary person who didnʼt like exercise, so I wasnʼt suitable to be a police officer. Hence, I finally chose the Intis Group.”
