One of his hands was unconsciously twirling the corner of his clothes, making him look uneasy.
Only the eldest lady couldn't help but cover her heart:
"He's so steady and elegant, I like him so much..."
Lin Manman took a step forward and touched her forehead:
"You don't have a fever? Ah! Is he horny?"
"Lin! Man! Man!"
"Hey, Master won't call me that anymore, you traitor."
Lin Manman flirted and ran away, not giving her any chance to fight back.
"Master, stop talking nonsense. I...I didn't!"
The eldest lady was so angry that her face turned red and she couldn't help but stomped her feet hard.
As a result, there were still poisonous insects under her feet that had not been cleaned up. She stumbled and was about to fall.
Suddenly, a hand reached out from the side and gently supported her waist.
The young lady finally managed to steady herself and when she looked closely, it was the leader.
He had black hair draped over his shoulders and wore simple white clothes. When he looked at her, he looked like a piece of white jade, shining with a gentle light.
The eldest lady was stunned for a moment, staring back at the leader without blinking.
The two looked at each other.
But just when the young lady was about to fall, Lin Manman's voice was deafening:
[It's over, it's over, is my silly apprentice going to have another love affair?]
"Bang!"
Upon hearing this, the eldest lady subconsciously pushed the leader away.
The leader staggered to a stop, clenched one hand into a fist, coughed lightly at the corner of his lips, and explained softly:
"I was just worried that the young lady would fall. If I have offended you, please forgive me."
This time, the young lady did not dare to look into the leader's eyes. She just lowered her head and said, "It's okay, it's okay."
Then she hurriedly went to chase Lin Manman.
Only the leader was left, staring at her receding figure with a half-smile.
***
Lu Chengqi invited Lin Manman and others to stay at the Jiangcheng City Lord's Mansion for a while.
But Lin Manman declined.
She always felt that the matter of the mountain ghost was not that simple. What's more, she had promised the two sisters to help them track down the holy treasure.
The most important thing is, don’t go to the temple unless you have something to do.
She came from afar and didn't want to return empty-handed.
[Hey hey hey hey…]
Hearing Lin Manman's strange laugh, Lu Chengqi was confused.
But then, something happened that made him extremely devastated.
——His Aotian actually refused to go home with him!
No matter how he threatened, bribed, or pulled, Aotian held on to Lin Manman's legs and refused to let go at all.
"Ah! Wicked son!"
In the end, Lu Chengqi was unable to defeat Aotian and had to leave it to Lin Manman temporarily.
As soon as Lu Chengqi left, Lin Manman and the eldest lady sneaked out of the room arranged for them by the leader.
Behind them, the Demon Lord followed silently with his hands in his pockets, like a black shadow.
The eldest lady asked, "Master, where are we going now?"
Lin Manman smiled crookedly: "Don't ask, just follow me and you'll have meat to eat."
