"Hmm." Nan Muchen glanced at Lin Zhen with indifferent eyes. Lin Zhen felt a chill down his spine, as if there was something in Nan Muchen's eyes when he looked at him just now.
He shrank back, trying to make himself less noticeable, but Nan Muchen's eyes were fixed on him, making it impossible for him to ignore the chilling feeling.
So, how did he offend Nan Muchen?
Lin Zhen looked to Chu Qingxuan for help, while the latter was clinging to Nan Muchen's elbow and acting coquettishly, a sight Lin Zhen rarely saw.
Although Nan Muchen didn't say anything, he tacitly agreed to Chu Qingxuan pulling him along.
He seemed quite happy.
Chu Qingxuan only showed this side of herself in front of Nan Muchen.
Thinking of this, Lin Zhen couldn't help but frown.
Could it be...?
Lin Zhen shook his head. It shouldn't be what he thought; they were master and disciple.
Gu Chang'an curled his lip, ignoring his own disciple, and said sourly, "Chu Chu, I think you should treat her fairly."
Chu Qingxuan, "Hmm?"
"You're so good to your master, but why are you so cold to me, your junior uncle?" Gu Chang'an asked Chu Qingxuan.
Chu Qingxuan thought for a moment, pointed at Lin Zhen, and said very seriously, "Junior Uncle, you also have a disciple. You can let your senior brother act cute towards you too."
Everyone imagined Lin Zhen acting coquettishly towards Gu Chang'an.
It's simply unbearable to look at.
Lin Zhen felt goosebumps and a chill run down her spine.
"Forget it," Gu Chang'an said dejectedly.
He touched his nose. "It seems I'm destined never to have a well-behaved female apprentice."
Lin Zhen: "..."
I sensed my master's deep dislike for me.
Nan Muchen glanced at Gu Chang'an and his apprentice with a cold gaze, and gave them the order to leave, "Chu Chu and I have something to say, you two go first."
As soon as Nan Muchen finished speaking, Lin Zhen immediately replied, "Yes."
Then he pulled his master away.
After Gu Chang'an and Lin Zhen left, only Chu Qingxuan and Nan Muchen remained in the room. Nan Muchen found a place to sit down.
Nan Muchen looked up at Chu Qingxuan and said, "Chu Chu, there are many people in the Hanchen Sect who are discussing our relationship?"
Chu Qingxuan was stunned for a moment, then said, "I only know Senior Sister Ding."
"I don't know anything else, and I didn't hear anything else."
Nan Muchen toyed with a teacup in his hand, his phoenix eyes deep and unfathomable.
"Understood."
Chu Qingxuan smiled. Nan Muchen was very smart and knew what she was thinking.
Nan Muchen didn't stay with Chu Qingxuan for long; after asking his questions, he left the Lotus Palace.
Later, Chu Qingxuan heard from Gu Chang'an that Nan Muchen went to Yao Hua and made Ding Zihan apologize to Chu Qingxuan in front of her, or else leave Hanchen Sect.
Yao Hua did not agree. While Ding Zihan was certainly wrong, Chu Qingxuan was also wrong for harming her fellow disciple.
Nan Muchen found out everyone who had been discussing Chu Qingxuan's background behind her back, and they all said that the rumors came from Ding Zihan.
Yao Hua knew there was no other way, so he had to agree.
When Ding Zihan appeared in front of Chu Qingxuan, Chu Qingxuan raised her eyebrows slightly, pretending not to know Ding Zihan's purpose.
"Senior Sister Ding, what brings you to Lotus Palace?"
Ding Zihan suppressed her resentment, her eyes filled with unwillingness. She bit her lip, lowered her head, and said, "Junior sister, I apologize to you."
Chu Qingxuan's eyes were icy, and she gave a sarcastic smile, asking, "Why are you apologizing?"
Ding Zihan gritted her teeth and replied, "I shouldn't have spread rumors about your background behind your back, nor should I have deliberately hurt Ouyang Xue."
