The corner of Sehun's mouth twitched when he heard that. "I have no idea how many card game software she has designed in the past at this point. Her brain can't be matched, not even by a supercomputer. The three of you challenged her to a game of cards? You got completely wiped out haven't you?"

"..."

Madam Tang, who was hoping to hear some words of comfort, was speechless when she heard Sehun's response.

"I'm not gonna waste any more time here. I'm heading over to the Peace Manor." Sehun got up from his seat with a disappointed expression. He thought there was something bad that had occurred. So she had spent the entire day playing cards?!

Ugh!

Listlessly, Madam Tang asked Sehun, "Why are you going there? There aren't a whole lot of people there."

"It's been ten years since Miss Lalisa has returned. There is a projection that something great will shake both the ancient martial arts world and the secular world. Perhaps something great will happen, and I'll definitely be there when that happens." Sehun waved his hand in the air at Madam Tang. "As for the people that left the Peace Village. They're all pretty intelligent, and I'm sure they'll come back immediately."

There was a brief pause before Madam Tang cursed under her breath. "Hmph! Can't stand living in peace can you?"

"Thank god she's back," she murmured after letting out a sigh. It's been so many years since they last met. And she thought that there'd be no chance of them seeing each other again. She then made a phone call. "Little Rosé, are you tired?"

"No, not really." Rosé had just finished taking part in a film over in France. There was no denying it. Filming was far easier than what she had done back in the ancient martial arts world.

Nothing much about Rosé had changed over the years. She had a popular nickname within the entertainment industry; a lot of people called her the "evergreen goddess". The longer she remained in showbiz, the more popular she became. At this point, she had already reached the stage of being a world superstar.

Madam Tang understood that filming was a fairly simple task for Rosé, but she couldn't suppress her concerns as her doting mother-in-law. "Remember to take a rest whenever you're tired."

Rosé laughed. "I know Mom, but why did you suddenly call me? Did something happen?"

"Um...I have something I want to tell you." Madam Tang paused to recollect her thoughts. "Right, did you browse the internet for the past couple of days?"

"I've been really busy with Director Cheng's film project. He's dissatisfied with the female lead no matter what, so I had to finish filming my parts first." Rosé took a napkin offered to her by her assistant and used it to wipe the sweat off his forehead.

Being so busy, how could she even have the time to browse the internet for the latest gossip? She would rather spend her time memorizing her script than wasting her time on the internet. Director Cheng was still the same old picky fellow. He would never be satisfied unless she burned her lines into her brain.

"So I assume that you aren't aware that Lili's coming back?" asked Madam Tang. She then went silent, awaiting a response from Rosé.

It was as if she had already hung up the call. No response was audible from her side, not even the sound of her breathing.

It felt like an eternity before Madam Tang heard Rosé respond with a hoarse voice. "I-Is that true?"

"I'm not lying to you," Madam Tang's voice sounded much more relaxed now. "Hurry up can come back home, Little Rosé. I heard that it doesn't seem like she'll be here very long."
