Stepping on the Demoness to become the strongest

Chapter 1014: Chapter 52 Golden Core True Man Xie Ruoxi_2

Now finally achieving success and advancement, thinking back to the encouragement and comfort from the captain, Xie Ruoxi felt a warm current flowing through her body. She very much wanted to tell the captain this good news immediately… and then get encouraged by him again. That would make the day perfectly flawless.

“The captain went on a business trip,” Lin Ning said briskly. “He’s probably in Nanchuan now, with Ling Yun accompanying him to handle official matters.”

Xie Ruoxi was eating a piece of lemon cake, and upon hearing this, she froze in place, the cake falling out of her mouth. Fortunately, the enchantress was beside her and, with lightning speed, caught it before it hit the ground, thus avoiding wasting food.

Did the captain leave before watching me cross the tribulation?

Haha, hahaha, he probably thought that my crossing tribulation was a sure thing, no need to wait for the result… This is proof that the captain absolutely trusts me.

But why does my heart still hurt…

Xie Ruoxi felt like a wife who got promoted and excitedly returned home to share the good news, only to find out that her husband went on a trip with his mistress. Thinking of this made her feel overwhelmingly sad, and the tears instantly welled up in her eyes.

The girls were shocked, not knowing why little Ruoxi was suddenly sad but could guess it had something to do with the captain’s absence. They immediately offered words of comfort:

“Oh dear, it’s not that the captain doesn’t value you. Lord Master urgently called him to Pingjing for something very important.”
