A smile appeared on Lu Chen's face.

When did I become so fragile?

I wanted to refuse directly.

But seeing Bai Ningruo's sincere face, Lu Chen was worried about hurting the girl's self-esteem.

So, I started to rethink the words that were on the tip of my tongue.

After a while.

Lu Chen's low voice came.

"Thank you for your kindness. I will try my best to protect myself."

Bai Ningruo smiled.

Then, a pair of eyes smiled like a crescent moon.

"Okay, as long as you open your mouth, I will definitely be there immediately!"

"I will not forgive any of those who bullied you!"

"During this period of time, you must think carefully about who has wronged you."

Lu Chen was stunned.

This Bai Ningruo is... quite vindictive.

In this way, as I just said, write down all the people who have wronged you.

That...will take some effort.

Then, the two chatted for a while.

But they are all insignificant things.

Until Bai Ningruo left, Lu Chen did not mention Wen Keyao.

It was as if Wen Keyao had never been to Qingyang Sect tonight.

"I will be in seclusion for the next few days."

As soon as these words came out.

Bai Ningruo nodded immediately, and even the expression on her face became more serious.

"Since Senior Brother wants to go into seclusion, I will stay outside and guard him."

"Brother, don't worry. I will never let anyone disturb you!"

Lu Chen smiled and shook his head.

"Don't be so nervous. This mountain is actually quite quiet. Usually, few people come here."

Bai Ningruo pursed her lips and smiled softly.

"Brother, what you saw was all an illusion. In fact, at the foot of the mountain, the team was lined up in a long queue!"

"how do I say this?"

"The disciples of Qingyang Sect all want to see your peerless beauty up close. If it weren't for the Sect Master's order, your place would have been packed!"

Bai Ningruo's voice was clear and as pleasant as a bell.

Lu Chen felt a little guilty.

No wonder it's so quiet here, it turns out someone is keeping the noise out.

"Thank you very much, Master."

"Brother, you don't have to be so polite. The Sect Master said that you must eat and live well here."

Bai Ningruo didn't say the rest.

Pang Zongheng’s original words were.

We must ensure that Lu Chen has good food and accommodation here. Even if he leaves one day, he must remember Qingyang Sect.

The next morning.

The entire Qingyang Sect knew that Lu Chen had begun his retreat.

For a while.

Everyone in the sect became cautious and alert.

Bai Ningruo, in particular, wished she could stay outside Lu Chen's room all day long.

That afternoon.

Wen Keyao returned to Xuanling Holy Sect.

Before he could rest for a moment, the child at the door came to report that Chi Lingxiao had arrived.

Wen Keyao had no expression on her face, and only said in a cold voice, "Let her in."

Then, everyone heard Chi Lingxiao's hurried voice.

"Second Sister, where have you been?"

"Why did you come down the mountain at such a critical moment?"

"Do you know that everyone is preparing for the Nine Suns Competition?"

Wen Keyao raised her eyes.

Carefully observing Chi Lingxiao in front of him.

Compared with a few days ago, Chi Lingxiao's breath has become much more even, and his face has a rosy look.

It can be seen that Chi Lingxiao has recovered well in the past few days.

Chi Lingxiao is still wearing a red dress, with his black hair draped over his shoulders like a waterfall.

Wherever he passed, red clothes fluttered.

It was as if she had returned to her former fairy form.

Of course, this arrogance and domineering attitude became more and more obvious.

Being stared at by Wen Keyao like this, Chi Lingxiao felt uneasy.

Biting his lip, Chi Lingxiao asked again.

"Second Senior Sister, why are you staring at me like that?"

"Nothing. Why are you rushing over here so quickly?"

During the questioning, Wen Keyao stood up and picked up a cup of tea.

Chi Lingxiao was stunned, then he remembered the purpose of his visit to Wen Keyao.

"Master said that we can discuss rescuing Junior Brother only after you come back."

"In recent days, Master has personally sent medicine to Junior Brother."

"I, the head of the Medicine Refining Hall, am now just a decoration."

Having said that, Chi Lingxiao rolled his eyes.

"It's all that damn Lu Chen's fault. If he had come back with us, Junior Brother wouldn't have to suffer so much."

Damn Lu Chen?

Ha ha!

Chi Lingxiao's words are always so harsh!

But Wen Keyao couldn’t understand where Chi Lingxiao’s hatred for Lu Chen came from?

There was a reason why I had misunderstood Lu Chen before.

He mistakenly believed that it was Lu Chen's obstruction that caused his parents to disappear.

So I have been holding a grudge against him all these years.

Now that she knows the truth, Wen Keyao wishes she could start everything over again.

But what was Chi Lingxiao doing?

Looking around, Wen Keyao said calmly, "All of you leave now."

Upon hearing this, the little boys in the room quickly turned around and left.

now.

There was no one else in the room except Wen Keyao and Chi Lingxiao.

"Senior Sister, why did you let all these people leave? Do you have something to say to me?"

Chi Lingxiao blinked his eyes, his gaze full of curiosity.

Wen Keyao nodded.

"Junior sister, can you tell me one thing, why do you hate Lu Chen so much?"

As soon as he finished speaking, Chi Lingxiao was stunned.

Why do you hate Lu Chen?

Of course I hate him!

"If it weren't for him, how could I have become a joke among everyone? I not only hate him, I hate him to death!"

Chi Lingxiao curled his lips, his face full of grievance.

"And before that?"

"Before that, it was because he had ulterior motives, was cunning and dangerous, narrow-minded, and there were many more, too many to count!"

"But I remember that in Lu Chen's heart, he values you the most."

While talking.

Wen Keyao glanced at Chi Lingxiao's waist.

There are many accessories hanging on that delicate little waist.

Each one is priceless.

And almost all of these accessories were made by Lu Chen.

I didn't care about these trivial matters at first.

It was because every time Chi Lingxiao got a treasure, he would come to him to show off.

Over time.

Naturally, I have an impression of these things.

Chi Lingxiao followed Wen Keyao's gaze and looked down.

His face suddenly turned red.

Even his speech became halting.

"I know, you want to say that all these things were given to me by Lu Chen."

"But so what? He didn't save my junior brother. He is so heartless and doesn't care about the friendship of the sect!"

"What's there to sympathize with such a person?"

The corners of Wen Keyao's mouth slowly curled up.

"So it's because of Qi Ze. You like Qi Ze, but why are you picking on Lu Chen?"

"I don't have anything against him. He always steals the limelight from my junior brother. I just can't stand it!"

Chi Lingxiao raised his head out of habit and even pouted his lips again.

this moment.

Wen Keyao suddenly felt sorry for Lu Chen.

some people.

She's not worthy of you being nice to her.
