"Do you know me?"
Upon hearing this, Li Xingtian became even more curious and took the initiative to ask, but Xu Zhiyi did not answer. She just continued to look at Li Xingtian with an incredulous gaze.
Su Lin noticed her rapid breathing and tried to remain calm, but he still unconsciously took two steps back.
"Are you that afraid of this old man?"
Li Xingtian frowned, puzzled but remained silent. Su Lin moved and stood in front of Li Xingtian, cutting off Xu Zhiyi's gaze.
"Miss Xu, why don't you put it more clearly?"
Su Lin's body was like a mountain, completely blocking Xu Zhiyi's view, which allowed Xu Zhiyi to regain her senses and look up at Su Lin's calm face.
"You...I'm sorry, I lost my composure."
Xu Zhiyi took a deep breath, raised her hand to gently pat her wildly beating heart, and resumed her cheerful demeanor: "It's strange, I don't know why, but I really like Mr. Su's future."
“I was very curious about what would happen to the strongest player in the future, so I did some calculations a few times after that. From the cards, I could tell that Mr. Su would have a particularly powerful old follower.”
"Hmm... I think it's probably him, but in my calculations it should have been a long time from now. I didn't expect Mr. Su to recruit him ahead of time."
Xu Zhiyi winked at Su Lin: "It seems that the future is indeed not immutable. Mr. Su is really amazing! He has helped me to better understand the power of prophecy. He has been a great help!"
"You call that destruction? What future have I destroyed?"
Su Lin's gaze remained unchanged as he calmly inquired. Xu Zhiyi smiled and said, "Destruction and change are both forms of change. Mr. Su obtaining a more powerful follower ahead of time is a form of destruction. For Mr. Su, there is no distinction between good and bad."
"oh."
Su Lin was silent for a moment, then suddenly smiled: "It was you who ruined the future you envisioned, not my future, right?"
Xu Zhiyi's expression changed slightly, but this fleeting difference did not escape Su Lin's notice, and he did not point it out.
"Mr. Su's words make me feel that we will have a very close connection in the future."
Xu Zhiyi lowered her head shyly, a faint allure appearing on her face, but Su Lin shook his head silently and was about to turn and leave.
He didn't want to stay there any longer and be watched by the crowd.
Su Lin and Xu Zhiyi are both celebrities in Zone C, attracting attention wherever they go, let alone when the two of them stand together and have a conversation.
"Mr. Su, aren't you going to ask me why I'm waiting for you?"
Xu Zhiyi watched Su Lin's retreating figure and called out to him, but Su Lin did not answer. He did not care about the answer to this question.
Only Xiao Linlin, who had been lost in thought and feeling dejected, suddenly turned around and looked Xu Zhiyi up and down.
She regained her composure and met Xu Zhiyi's smiling gaze.
Sudden.
Xiao Linlin slightly opened her mouth and spoke silently. Xu Zhiyi's expression changed slightly, and she could see through Xiao Linlin's lip reading.
"Do you know what happened in our last match?"
After Xiao Linlin finished speaking, she looked intently at Xu Zhiyi's expression. The woman smiled as usual and waved to her, as if she wanted to explain in person.
But Xiao Linlin shook her head and turned to follow Su Lin's footsteps.
She had confirmed her suspicions and understood Xu Zhiyi's purpose in staying here.
Xu Zhiyi stood watching the direction the group had left in, until they completely disappeared into the passageway.
She didn't leave; she stood there for a while longer before slowly turning and leaving.
The young man beside him finally dared to speak and ask softly, "President, did he do something out of control?"
"Control?"
Xu Zhiyi stopped and glanced at the young man beside her, her gaze calm: "What makes you think I can control him?"
"I don't have that idea."
The young man quickly lowered his head, but couldn't help adding, "But... even the strongest person can't do without someone who understands cause and effect."
"I'm not as strong as you say. I'm just doing my own thing, and so is he."
Xu Zhiyi turned back and glanced at the corridor in the dormitory area, muttering, "But this time, he's really different. He took that path ahead of time, faster than I expected."
"President, is this a good thing or a bad thing?"
"Neither good nor bad, it's none of my business."
Xu Zhiyi shook her head and quickened her pace as she left.
No one saw that her hands were clenched into fists the whole time, as if she was worried about something.
......
Not long after.
Everyone returned to their dormitory.
Su Lin was not affected by Xu Zhiyi and immediately started the scanning and treatment process after returning to the dormitory.
The light enveloped everyone, sweeping them up and down, providing a free full recovery effect.
The light emanating from most of the followers dissipated quickly, almost vanishing in a flash. Only the light emanating from Li Xingtian lasted the longest, lingering around him even long after Xu Zhenshu had fully recovered.
"Lin'er, is this the cure you were talking about?"
Li Xingtian raised his hand with some curiosity, his fingertips touching the radiance around him. He squinted comfortably and twisted his body: "Hiss, it's like taking a bath. It would be even better if there was a pot of wine."
"Oh dear, Grandpa is so greedy and never satisfied."
Xiao Linlin made a face beside her: "Then shouldn't you ask your brother to build you a big hot spring, so you can drink fine wine and soak in it every day, and have a few beautiful ladies serve you?"
"Why?"
Li Xingtian was taken aback, and stroked his chin: "Is there such a good thing? I am willing to give it a try and give Lin'er a chance to fulfill his filial duty."
"Hey? Hey hey hey!!"
Upon hearing this, Jia Zhengyi, who was standing nearby, jumped up excitedly and looked at Li Xingtian with the eyes of someone who had found a kindred spirit: "Ancestor! We are comrades!"
