"You, you just wait!" The man, humiliated in front of everyone, fled in disgrace.
Ling Feng looked at the man standing there; this was the first time a man other than her father had stood in front of her.
Ling Feng can be said to have grown up in the military camp, where she was surrounded by a bunch of rough and tough guys, and she herself was not a delicate woman.
So, she always felt she didn't need anyone to stand in front of her, but...
Ling Feng looked at the man standing not far away and thought it would be nice to have someone like that.
She remembered that person.
That was Zhu Ziyi from the General of the State's Mansion.
Although they had no interaction before, she looked down on people like him who were neither good at academics nor martial arts!
However, even though Zhu Ziyi was still the same, he went straight into her eyes and heart.
She watched Zhu Ziyi walk towards her step by step, mesmerized.
"Girl, are you alright?"
Ling Feng showed a rare hint of girlish shyness.
"I'm fine, thank you for your help, Young Master Zhu."
"hey-hey."
"I didn't do anything. Don't take their words to heart. It's okay."
"I won't take it to heart, thank you, Young Master Zhu."
Zhu Ziyi scratched his head and grinned, watching Ling Feng leave.
Chu Yu finally caught up with Hua, and the two walked side by side. Chu Yu was mainly accompanying Hua, who was in a very good mood today.
The human realm had always been the place she most wanted to visit, but she had never had the chance before. Now that she had finally fulfilled her wish, she had been in the human realm for several days, and apart from spending one night exploring it when she first arrived, she hadn't had a chance to properly see this great city.
Right now, I'm really excited and especially satisfied with the sugar painting. I can't stop thinking about it after I've finished eating it.
"Chu Yu, is what you're holding delicious?"
Chu Yu pretended not to see the longing look in Hua's eyes. When he heard Hua's words, he seriously looked down at the sugar painting version of the little flower in his hand, which was missing a small ribbon.
He took another serious bite right in front of the flower.
"Hmm, not bad."
Hua pursed her lips as she looked at the sugar painting in Chu Yu's hand.
"Chu Yu, since you don't like it..."
"I like!"
Chu Yu went along with what Hua said, deliberately teasing her.
"Chu Yu, Chu Yu."
"Chu Yu, you're the best!"
Holding Chu Yu's other large hand, she gently shook it, without saying anything else, just staring at him with her innocent big eyes, calling his name again and again.
"Okay, I've already eaten that."
Chu Yu looked at Hua tentatively, but Hua was only focused on the sugar painting in his hand and didn't notice what he was saying at all.
"It's okay, I don't mind."
A casual remark made Chu Yu's eyes darken even more.
The Adam's apple slid gently.
"Yes, yes, I've already eaten."
Hua was puzzled by Chu Yu's words, but without thinking much of it, she replied, "I don't mind, and besides, it's not like I haven't..."
As Hua spoke, she looked up at Chu Yu, but when she met his gaze, her voice grew softer and softer until she couldn't say anything at all.
Hua hurriedly avoided Chu Yu's gaze. Although she couldn't understand the turbulent emotions in Chu Yu's eyes, it seemed as if Chu Yu wanted to devour her.
That feeling of her heart pounding in her chest returned, a feeling she had been experiencing frequently ever since Chu Yu emerged from seclusion.
As she walked back, she said hurriedly, "Since you don't want to give it to me, I'll just ask the stall owner to make another one! This time, I want a Qingfeng Shangshen one."
Upon hearing the second half of Hua's sentence, all of Chu Yu's romantic thoughts vanished, and he quickly took a few steps forward to catch up with Hua.
"Why does Liao Liao want to create a Qingfeng Shangshen (God of Gentle Breeze)?"
"I…"
"Liao Liao doesn't want me?"
She quickly looked away, her eyes blurry. "Of course...of course not, but...you were already there just now, weren't you?"
"So you don't want it anymore after all?"
Chu Yu's words pressed on relentlessly, leaving Hua no way out.
"Chu Yu, don't be like this."
"What kind?"
Chu Yu took another step closer to the flower.
"So, tell me, what's wrong with me?"
The voice was so close it sounded like it was whispering in her ear.
Chu Yu's voice seemed to carry a mysterious, bewitching power.
