I really want to ask, you call this a freshman?
"Junior Wang Xu looks a bit older, but he's really only eighteen. Sorry, I scared you!"
Seeing my gaze, Ji Xinglan said with a slight hint of apology.
That's when I noticed Ji Xinglan.
I was reminded of a friend from the past, Xiaomi. But now Xiaomi is gone, and all that remains is the memory of him.
"Ji Xinglan? Which Ji?"
I couldn't help but ask, "So what if it's Ji?"
"The surname 'Ji' as in 'rose' and 'uncle' are quite rare!"
Ji Xinglan gave a sweet smile, looking quite innocent, which stunned Lao Dao and Ant.
People, especially men, no matter how old they are, will always prefer the look of an eighteen-year-old.
I was in a similar situation. Ji Xinglan extended a hand to shake mine, but I only touched it briefly.
Ji Xinglan's hands were very soft and smooth, and they felt wonderful to touch. I was actually a little tempted.
At that moment, I even wondered if I had been influenced by the gray figure. The old me would never have reacted the same way as Lao Dao!
"Brother Chen, does this guy look eighteen? I think he's older than me!"
Looking at Wang Xu's expression, Lao Dao immediately made a sarcastic remark to me.
I just smiled, because I really couldn't refute it.
Just as Wang Xu was about to fight Lao Dao, Ji Xinglan stopped him. With just a glance from Ji Xinglan, Wang Xu obediently nodded.
His obedient appearance was just like a son seeing his mother; he was so well-behaved it was unbelievable.
"That guy is such a loser!"
Old Dao leaned close to my ear and whispered something.
I nodded in agreement, without saying anything more.
"That's just how Junior Wang is, please don't take offense!"
Ji Xinglan came closer to us and apologized to me.
At the same time, he took a pack of chewing gum out of his pocket and gave it to me.
That's when I noticed that Ji Xinglan was wearing a men's shirt. I'm not afraid of girls wearing short clothes, but I am afraid of girls wearing shirts.
After I put it on, I discovered that the girl had a broad mind and a profound understanding of life. Even the chewing gum had a faint fragrance.
It's not the original flavor of chewing gum; it's a different flavor altogether.
In contrast, the other two girls were dressed rather plainly.
It was just a simple coat and a youthful, pretty skirt, nothing special. Our attention was mainly on Ji Xinglan.
"It's alright. Since we've all met, it's fate. We've been in this Lin family compound for a while now, so we're definitely more familiar with it than you are!"
I took the chewing gum, looked at the four people, and suggested that we form a team.
I don't know why, but I always feel like there's something off about these four people, but I can't quite put my finger on it. Since that's the case, why don't we let them join us?
Hearing this, Ji Xinglan was very happy.
"What? You want us to join you? That's great, uncle! We were just about to say the same thing, but we were too embarrassed to say it. Since you have the same idea, then let's all set off together!"
Ji Xinglan was as happy as a child and immediately prepared to set off with us.
As for Wang Xu in their team, he didn't seem very happy. He just glanced at me calmly, then looked at Lao Dao with great wariness.
Since we were forming a team, it was natural to introduce the members. I gave Ji Xinglan a brief introduction of Lao Dao and Ant.
And tell them that Lao Dao is actually the strongest fighter in our team.
Upon hearing what I said, Lao Dao raised his head, brimming with confidence.
Actually, that's not entirely wrong.
After Lao Dao mastered that technology, his combat power became incredibly formidable.
If I didn't use the Thunderstrike Sword and that golem, dealing with Old Knife would be quite difficult.
"Really? Brother Dao, I didn't know you were this good!"
The three girls showered Lao Dao with compliments, but I became even more wary.
Normal girls wouldn't be interested in Lao Dao. Either they're after something from him, or these girls aren't actually normal.
"Tch, all show and no substance!"
Wang Xu, who was standing next to him, couldn't help but speak up again, but he shut his mouth under Ji Xinglan's gaze.
"Excuse me, gentlemen, please don't take it to heart. My junior brother Wang's brain is probably smoother than his butt, so he speaks without thinking. Please bear with him!"
Ji Xinglan quickly stepped forward and spoke to Lao Dao.
Hearing this, I managed to suppress a slight twitch of my mouth.
That's outrageous, absolutely outrageous.
The main thing is that this girl said it very seriously, it didn't sound like she was joking.
I couldn't help but chuckle, so I suggested we hit the road and take a look.
And so, our makeshift seven-person team began.
"Uncle Chen, why is this Lin family compound so eerie?"
We started walking together, and Ji Xinglan took the initiative to strike up a conversation. I was still a little wary of Ji Xinglan, and I remembered what Fatty Sister had said before.
Fatty said, "Right now, I can't trust anything except Lao Dao, Ant, and Luo Tianhe. As for the rest of the people, I can't trust any of them."
I told Ji Xinglan that the Lin family compound was actually not clean!
