Jin Ruozhen still kept her head down and didn't say anything!

Lan Ziye felt a little uncomfortable and raised his eyebrows and asked, "Am I scary?"

Jin Ruozhen's heart suddenly tightened. Afraid that Lan Ziye would misunderstand, she quickly looked up at Lan Ziye and said even more awkwardly, "No, no, no! You...you..." She was so anxious that she couldn't even speak.

Lan Ziye burst out laughing. She looked at Jin Ruozhen with sparkling eyes and said, "Why are you so nervous? Aren't we friends?" After a pause, she added, "You act like we're enemies!"

Jin Ruozhen lowered her head again and murmured timidly, "I'm just... just used to it!"

"Then change this habit from now on!" Lan Ziye said seriously, "If you find it difficult, then start by talking to me! You don't have to look at others when talking to others, but when talking to me, you must hold your head high, stand up straight, and look me in the eye! Otherwise, don't talk to me anymore. I'm not your friend!"

"Student Lan Ziye!" Jin Ruozhen looked at Lan Ziye in horror.

Lan Ziye was the first friend who treated her sincerely, and since she met Lan Ziye, her life had changed dramatically. She could go to Lanxuan College like other children of the Jin family, and no one laughed at her or bullied her anymore. She also met Su Rongrong, Zhu Ning and others and became friends with them.

She likes her current life and doesn't want any changes.

Jin Ruozhen gritted her teeth, mustered her courage, and forced herself to look Lan Ziye in the eye. Her face was extremely serious as she said, "Classmate Lan Ziye, I understand!"

Lan Ziye was very happy, showing a big smile, and proudly put his arms around Jin Ruozhen's neck and said, "This is my friend, Lan Ziye!"

Jin Ruozhen was stunned when she saw the hand hugging her. This was the only friend in her life who did not look down on her and was willing to hug her.

It’s great to know Lan Ziye.

Chu Xixuan glanced at Jin Ruozhen unhappily, and his gaze finally fell on Lan Ziye's hand hugging Jin Ruozhen: It turns out that the girls of the Jin family are not likable!

Chu Xixuan's aura instantly turned cold. Without saying a word, he walked straight towards the hall of the ancestral home.

Lan Ziye looked at Chu Xixuan, whose face suddenly turned stern, and her mind was full of questions: What happened again? She didn't make him angry!

Lan Ziye shook her head. She had already obtained the essence stone, so it seemed that there was no point in staying here. She might as well find an excuse to slip away!

After all, Jin Ruoxi is a member of the Jin family, and she is also the eldest daughter of the Jin family. The head of the Jin family will definitely come forward to protect her later!

The one who got into trouble was Chu Yu. No matter what, she was still a member of the Chu family. Even if she was not welcomed, Old Man Chu and Chu Xixuan should come forward to help and seek an explanation!

If the two families couldn't reach an agreement, she wouldn't be affected! She'd better find an excuse to slip away!

"Um... Jin Ruozhen, I still have some things to do. Please tell your grandfather that I won't attend this meeting!" Lan Ziye said to Jin Ruozhen.

After saying that, she let go of Jin Ruozhen, turned around and was about to run away, but was stopped by Jin Ruorui behind her!

"Miss Lan!" Jin Ruorui shouted anxiously!

It's true that people are afraid of being famous, and pigs are afraid of being fat. Look! More and more people know her, and it's hard for her to slip away quietly.

Lan Ziye turned around and forced a smile that looked uglier than crying, saying, "Ms. Jin Ruorui, is there something you want to talk to me about?"
