However, the two culprits ignored Lin Ran’s nagging and looked at each other.
Feng Jue remarked, “What kind of spot did you choose? Didn’t even notice a fully grown man?”
Gu Jin replied, “Hmph. Wasn’t it the same for you?”
Feng Jue and Gu Jin thought to themselves, “Who the f*ck knows that in this era, there are still people sleeping on trees?”
Lin Ran stood up and was about to criticize them seriously as a powerful man from the capital when he recognized Gu Jin. He subconsciously said,
“Sister-in -Law.”
As Xiao Yize’s good friend, he naturally knew that Xiao Yize had been wooing Gu Jin recently.
Even for this boring banquet in the Lu residence, Xiao Yize had dragged him along because he wanted to spend time with Gu Jin.
Gu Jin frowned. “Who’s your sister-in-law?”
Lin Ran wanted to say, “Of course it’s you.” However, when he noticed the signs of a fight and Gu Jin’s cold gaze, he swallowed his saliva and swallowed the words that were about to come out of his mouth.
“Hahaha. You heard wrong.” Lin Ran smiled.
Lin Ran thought to himself, “Damn it. Oh god. It’s another metahuman martial artist again! Didn’t they all go to the neighboring Liang City? Why did he bump into them in Jin City? It was three of them no less”
“Young Master Xiao is calling me. I have to go.”
Lin Ran fled decisively, afraid that he would be killed. After their research, they found that metahuman martial artists from the outside world usually liked to hide themselves. If they were discovered, they might do something extreme.
But speaking of which, Young Master Xiao’s speed was not good. He had been chasing Miss Gu for so long, but he had yet to win her over.
Tsk. He was too embarrassed to say that Xiao Yize was his good friend.
Seeing Lin Ran run away, Feng Jue smiled playfully. “Are we letting him go just like that? What’s the difference between Lin Ran knowing and Xiao Yize knowing?
Gu Jin shot him a cold glance and turned to leave.
Feng Jue clicked his tongue, “Looks like you don’t have a bad impression of
Xiao Yize.”
She didn’t mind revealing this to him.
On the other side, Lin Ran ran to the banquet hall, his heart still pounding.
Xiao Yize opened a bottle of champagne and glanced at Lin Ran, who was blushing. He clicked his tongue. “Which young woman made your heart beat faster this time?”
“Miss Gu Jin…” Lin Ran panted heavily.
Xiao Yize’s face suddenly turned cold. “What are you talking about?”
Noticing Xiao Yize’s gaze, Lin Ran hurriedly waved his hand. “No, Young
Master Xiao. I want to tell you a secret about Miss Gu.”
Xiao Yize still looked at him coldly. “What secret do you know that I don’t?”
Lin Ran was speechless.
Lin Ran looked around and took a deep breath. “Miss Gu is a metahuman martial artist.”
“Oh. I’ve known for a long time.”
Xiao Yize’s expression did not change.
“You knew? When did you know?!” It was Lin Ran’s turn to be surprised.
Xiao Yize sipped his champagne as a smile appeared on his handsome face. “I’ve been spending time with Miss Gu every day. Of course, I can tell from the details.”
However, Miss Gu didn’t take the initiative to say it, so he didn’t mention it. Li Ran quickly picked out the main point of his conversation with Xiao Yize.
The important was daily interaction.
He couldn’t help but sigh. “Jin City is really filled with lots of hidden talent. I only slept on a tree, but I could already meet two metahuman martial artists.” “Who is the other one?” Xiao Yize asked.
“It’s a boy. He’s fair and handsome. He seemed close to Miss Gu. The two of them were sparring under a tree. Judging from the traces they left behind, it seems they were fighting quite fiercely, but neither of them was injured. It’s obvious that they left some leeway.”
As Lin Ran spoke, he couldn’t help but think of the words “love-hate relationship”.
Xiao Yize’s face darkened when he realized what was going on. “Handsome? How handsome?”
