Hearing the persistent words still coming from behind him, Mu Lin’s footsteps subconsciously stuttered. She expelled a breath, feeling frustrated for the first time.

Addressing this person who was so earnest and competitive, Mu Lin turned around, the corners of her mouth deepening mysteriously, “I know, you didn’t throw me into the newbie camp, okay?” To be honest, she was more accustomed to… The initial impression of him, who seemed more reasonable.

“You’re humoring me.” Seeing the look of indifference on Mu Lin’s face, Jing Chen flatly stated his conclusion.

Her response was immediately choked back by his words, left speechless. With a smile, she replied, “Darling, I’ve been answering you so seriously. Where do you see me humoring you?”

“Both eyes.” He saw it all.

Mu Lin wanted to facepalm, “I surrender.” She admitted without hesitation. The next moment, she looked into his eyes with utter seriousness, “I know you didn’t lose anything.” Surely, that was enough this time.

Other than her own master, this was the first time Mu Lin felt an inexplicable sense of resignation towards anyone.

Withdrawing her gaze, Mu Lin turned to walk towards the group, hoping to put an end to his speechless persistence, otherwise it would just go on and on. Because of this, she did not notice that when she turned around, Jing Chen’s hand moved to cover his chest, and his eyes-looking at her receding figure-held a complicated and bewildered look.

When Mu Lin’s gaze met his own, Jing Chen easily felt his heart accelerating.

He recently, truly, was slightly abnormal.

Even though many had heard of Jing Chen’s name and yearned for his heroic status, it didn’t mean everyone knew what he looked like, except for those who had met him before, such as Ji Shubai and Xue Jianbing.

That being said, by looking at Jing Youlan, one could roughly guess that Jing Chen’s appearance wouldn’t be any worse.

In fact, the two of them didn’t look alike… at all.

…

At the moment Jing Chen appeared before them, Jing Youlan and the others felt their breath momentarily stolen, cautious and timid.

At this moment, they were all envious of those who didn’t know who Jing Chen was. Even though he had concealed his imposing aura, to many newbies, he was still a stranger. Perhaps they were curious, but they would most likely just assume he held a similar position to Ling Qi.

And of course, there was Mu Lin. Looking at her interactions with Jing Chen, the incredibly natural atmosphere between them, her unhesitant way of handling this “big shot”, even Xue Jianbing was stupefied. He had a profound respect for Mu Lin’s audacity.

Quite a bit of time passed, yet Ling Qi didn’t show himself, merely watching the cheerful atmosphere among them. Looking at their closeness gradually develop through small incidents one by one, even Jing Youlan and Xue Jianbing – the pair known for their squabbling – were co-operating… over these trivial things.

Aren’t they just trivial things though? For some young masters who take everything for granted, the issue of eating a meal was never something they researched. Perhaps today’s activities would be quite troublesome for them, but undoubtedly an interesting experience.

However, the person that left Ling Qi dumbfounded was still Jing Chen. His hand was lightly stroking his chin. Perhaps, he could ask the guy for a small favor later.
