[Alright, stop talking. It was my fault just now.] Lin Jingge leaned against the tree and struggled to sit cross-legged.

[You clearly didn't mean it, and you already apologized, yet you still hit him so hard. I even thought he was handsome just now!]

Xiao Shi was dissatisfied, feeling like he'd been blind. He retorted against his will, "What's so handsome about him? He's clearly a sissy!"

Lin Jingge smiled helplessly, then a look of pain appeared on her face.

She couldn't control Xiao Shi's complaints.

However, she wouldn't really blame the other person for that slap.

I didn't realize it until now, but now I belatedly recall what just happened.

She clearly felt a sense of pressure emanating from the other person.

That kind of oppressive aura left her unable to muster the slightest resistance.

She didn't know how much higher her cultivation level was than the other party's.

When the opponent unleashed that palm strike, Lin Jingge no longer sensed any killing intent.

The other party's level was far superior to hers; if they really wanted to attack her, a single slap would be enough to kill her.

But now, she only has chest pain, and feels fine otherwise.

It's mainly because she offended someone first.

This is why even though Lin Jingge slapped the other person, she still couldn't feel any resentment in her heart.

Xiao Shi's words were merely an attempt to protect her.

Thinking of this, Lin Jingge shook her head slightly, stopped thinking about it, and began to observe her surroundings.

There was no one around, but there was a main road with dense forests on both sides.

Ahhh, isn't this better than Lin Shuxiang? This is the first day I've wanted to change the male lead.
