Chapter 26: Chapter 26 Car Accident

Mo Jiao was washing the bloodstains off his clothes, while Xiao Jinsheng was there to clean the first Star Stone she obtained after killing a Fog Corpse.

Seeing Xiao Jinsheng approach, Mo Jiao had just finished rinsing. He shut off the faucet and quickly retreated to his room.

"Brother Takedown, why are you avoiding me~" Xiao Jinsheng called out to his back.

Hearing her words, Mo Jiao sped up his pace.

Watching Mo Jiao leave in irritation, Xiao Jinsheng grinned contentedly and prepared to rinse her precious Star Stone.

But no matter how much she twisted the faucet, it wouldn’t budge.

The faucet was an old style, with a tiny metal handle about the size of a pinky finger.

Xiao Jinsheng dropped the Star Stone, went in with both hands, but the faucet still didn’t move an inch.

She’d used this faucet yesterday—there was no way it had been shut this tightly.

Considering Mo Jiao had left after turning off the water, Xiao Jinsheng immediately understood.

It had to be Mo Jiao deliberately tightening the faucet, purely to get back at her for tossing her Star Stone at him earlier.

Once upon a time, Xiao Jinsheng was a complete pushover, practically shattering at the slightest touch.

Now, with the absorption of Star Stones enhancing her spiritual power, she’d improved. But due to limited resources and time, she wasn’t strong enough yet.

You could only say she had evolved from super fragile to moderately fragile.

Failing to twist it open, Xiao Jinsheng worried her strength might backfire and snap the pipe entirely.

She had no choice but to go inside to find someone else. By chance, she saw Su Ye in the corridor.

"Brother Good, come here! I’ve got something interesting for you to see," Xiao Jinsheng waved him over.

Su Ye raised his eyebrow slightly, took a stride forward, and in a few steps, was standing before her.

He crossed his arms, leaned casually against the wall, and said, "What interesting thing? Let’s see it!"

"Open the faucet first, and I’ll show you." Xiao Jinsheng instructed.

Hearing this, Su Ye didn’t hesitate, reaching out to turn the faucet.

But while his hand was on it, despite twisting twice, the faucet didn’t budge.

Jinsheng’s expression shifted to one of doubt as she stared at him, full of skepticism: "Brother Good, it’s just a faucet.
