"Hello, it's an honor to meet you. I'm Zhou Linqian."
When the person came up to him, he greeted him first. Shen Muqing pretended to be flattered and said, "Hello, hello, I am Shen Muqing. I have long admired Teacher Zhou's name."
Her attitude was respectful and humble, placing herself in a low position, and Zhou Linqian naturally enjoyed her respect.
"I'm very happy that you could come to this exchange meeting. If you have any questions about creation, feel free to ask me. I'd be happy to answer them for you."
Zhou Linqian deliberately tried to get closer to Cang Jin, his gaze subtly sweeping over Cang Jin's location. It was so discreet that no one knew what he was looking at.
"I dare not trouble Teacher Zhou. It is already a blessing from my past life that I was able to speak with Teacher Zhou today."
"Miss Shen, you're too kind. This is my business card. I feel a connection with you, and I hope I haven't been presumptuous."
Shen Muqing accepted the business card he offered, saying, "Not at all, not at all. It wouldn't be presumptuous of me."
"Keep in touch when you have time."
Zhou Linqian's assistant urged him to leave, probably because something urgent had come up.
"must!"
Shen Muqing watched his retreating figure as he walked away, his mind racing with thoughts of how to connect with the female lead.
Before she could finish thinking, Cang Jin pulled her into his arms with his left hand, pinched her waist, and said ambiguously, "Qingqing, have you taken a liking to him?"
Otherwise, why would someone be so absent-minded as soon as they leave?
"Cangjin! He has a wife, he's married."
"You can get a divorce even if you're married."
Shen Muqing was surprised that Cang Jin's internet speed was so fast; he already knew about divorce after only a few days. She pinched his waist hard and said, "Can't you be normal? Do you want me to be the other woman?"
"Besides, we were just having a normal conversation. Do you know his status in our circle?"
"It's equivalent to the head of the top sect in your world."
Shen Muqing explained to him that there was no way she could possibly have a relationship with the male lead unless she was truly desperate for sex.
"That's not that impressive. I could take on two of those people by myself." Cang Jin said dismissively. Killing him would be as easy as crushing an ant for him.
"Then aren't you dead yet?"
Cang Jin tightened his grip on her waist, "Qingqing, don't you know very well how I died?"
"No one knows better than you how I died."
Shen Muqing laughed heartily, not wanting to continue the topic.
"Would you like to explore the surrounding area? You haven't seen our world yet, have you?"
"Let me tell you, our world is so beautiful, with lots of fun things you've never seen before."
Outside the banquet hall, a chef was grilling a whole roasted lamb, which made Shen Muqing's mouth water.
"Cang Jin, you must have never eaten roasted whole lamb before. It's a pity you can't eat it and can only watch."
The greatest tragedy in life is this: having delicious food right in front of you but being unable to eat it. It's so cruel.
"It's alright, I can taste it from your mouth."
He made a very lewd and obscene statement.
"Look at this beautiful landscape, isn't it gorgeous?" Shen Muqing admired the scenery. As expected of a resort, the scenery was exceptionally beautiful.
"By the way, Cang Jin, why did you become a villain? Is the world not a good place?"
"Look at you, you have both good looks and talent, why can't you figure out why you've become a villain?"
Upon hearing this, Cang Jin gritted his teeth and replied, "Qingqing, are you sure you want to ask me this question?"
Shen Muqing realized what was happening and said, "I won't ask, I won't ask."
Good heavens, the villain he created even asked him why he was so foolish as to become a villain. It seems that doing the missions made him stupid. Egg has to make it up to her.
Her muttering soon attracted the attention of some people, who all thought she was mentally unstable and talking to thin air.
That's right, it's not normal for most creators to be mentally unstable.
Some people looked on with pity, sighing, "Another creative person has gone mad."
Shen Muqing noticed that some of the gazes around her were strange, so she stopped arguing with Cang Jin and quietly acted as if she were invisible.
Looking out the window overlooking the courtyard, Zhou Linqian asked the person beside him, "Master, who is the person next to that girl?"
His assistant, the one he referred to as the master, stared intently in the direction of Cang Jin and spoke in a deep voice:
"I don't know, their attire doesn't seem to belong to our era."
The master merely glanced at Cang Jin purposefully, and Cang Jin immediately sensed that someone was watching him. His narrow eyes turned sharply in that direction.
Zhou Linqian and the master moved slightly towards the curtains to conceal themselves. Cang Jin, not seeing anyone, looked away and continued to cling to Shen Muqing.
"Does that mean that man is very skilled in magic?"
Zhou Linqian spoke greedily, his refined face revealing his ugliness.
"Logically speaking, yes."
"Master, please hurry up and capture him to refine him. I feel that my luck is about to run out."
As Zhou Linqian spoke, he suddenly thought of something and showed a disgusted expression. It was all that useless woman's fault.
"No, we need to think about this carefully. Let me think about it."
"Okay, Master, you should know that the more famous I am, the more money you will receive."
These two are in cahoots, and this is probably not the first time they've done something like this.
"I understand, I will think of a solution as soon as possible."
"It's up to you, Master."
Zhou Linqian hid in the shadows, his excitement rising as he thought about how his career would surely reach new heights after he refined that man.
Human desires are endless; as soon as a thought arises, one will be plunged into an endless sea of desires.
Like Zhou Linqian, he has achieved both fame and fortune, and already possesses hundreds of millions of assets, but he is not satisfied and wants more and more.
Unaware of the impending danger, Shen Muqing and Cang Jin were still sitting in the courtyard waiting for the whole roasted lamb, planning to indulge themselves and take advantage of the free food.
Despite being called an exchange meeting, Shen Muqing only exchanged a few words with Zhou Linqian; she didn't speak a single word to anyone else. But that was fine; she felt more comfortable on her own.
After lunch, she planned to go back and think carefully about how to get to know Xiang Sui'an.
Unexpectedly, a torrential downpour began outside, halting Shen Muqing's steps toward home.
She looked at the ride-hailing app on her phone, which showed a wait time of over an hour. What else could she do but wait?
Shen Muqing and the others sat in the hall waiting for the rain to stop. Almost everyone was in pairs, but Shen Muqing was all alone, as if everyone was isolating her.
The resort owner was very considerate, preparing a sumptuous meal of fruit, desserts, and tea for everyone.
"Miss Shen, why aren't you chatting with them?"
Zhou Linqian appeared beside Shen Muqing at some point. Cang Jin frowned; he didn't like this person.
"Teacher Zhou! What are you doing here?"
Shen Muqing immediately stood up, her eyes revealing surprise.
"It's raining heavily, and there was a landslide on the way back. I don't think we can leave today."
"ah?"
"Why are you doing this all by yourself? Aren't you bored?"
"No, no."
