Gigi's face quickly lost any sign of arrogance as she grinned affectionately and spoke. Gigi and Sandra became close friends after Gigi met Sandra while traveling the world two years prior.
Gigi had only intended to check out the new pill-making rooms when she visited the Pill Tower. She never thought she would bump into Sandra.
"Sister Gigi…"
At the sight of Gigi, Sandra was delighted as well. She strode over quickly, clasping Gigi's hands in her own. Sandra had been feeling pretty down just before that, but her mood instantly brightened at the sight of Gigi.
F*ck me...
Darryl scratched his head. What was happening? How were those two women so close?
Gigi had utterly forgotten that Darryl was there. It was as if she had just run into a family member. She sat Sandra down on a chair and began to chat with her.
A thought seemed to come to Gigi a while later as she smiled at Sandra. "I heard the Heavenly Dragon Sect found some pills and sent some people here today to have them checked out. I thought it'd be someone else, but it turned out to be you.
"So, how are those pills?"
Sandra's smile dimmed as she sighed. "I'm going to be honest, Gigi. The Sect Master has taken a look at them and declared all the pills to be non-effective."
Sandra could not help but cast a glance at Darryl.
What? All the pills had lost their effects?
Gigi trembled at the words, disbelief written all over her exquisite features as she glanced at the box in Sandra's hands before taking it from her and opening it to take a look.
"What…"
Upon taking a closer look at all the pills in the box, Gigi looked at Darryl with an utmost confused expression. "Those pills look pretty well-kept. How could they all have lost their effects? Are you attempting to lie to Sandra by taking advantage of the fact that she does not know anything about pills?
What the f*ck?"
