Chapter 138: Silly

Lu Zhichen knew that Xing Jiuan was referring to her master’s place.

Previously, when Xing Jiuan had gone down to the police station and he had witnessed the Huo family coming to find her, he had investigated the Huo family.

On that day, Xing Jiuan was calm and cold. She said to the Huo couple without any reluctance, “Thank you for giving me life.”

The Huo family seemed to like her very much and wanted her to come back, but they did not dare to approach her at all.

Lu Zhichen did not feel that Xing Jiuan was wrong with the way she acted.

Even though the Lu family and the Huo family were on friendly terms, they rarely contacted him.

He, Huo Jinqi, and Huo Jinyuan were not people that could hang out with one another. Moreover, he had a strong dislike for Huo Chulan.

His little girl had been picked up by her master when she was three years old. She took her master’s surname, and she was called both Xing Se and Xing Jiuan.

No matter how many reasons the Huo family had, they had almost indirectly caused Xing Jiuan’s death.

The thought of such a young girl being abandoned made him shudder.

Lu Zhichen did not request to see her.

At least not right now.

Now was not the time.

[Lu Zhichen: When you come back, can I see you?]

Xing Jiuan frowned.

It was not that she felt disgusted by Lu Zhichen’s words. It was just strange…

Although Lu Zhichen did not say anything else and had only sent a message, she could feel that Lu Zhichen seemed to be very sad.

She touched her head.

Xing Xiaolang whined and rubbed itself against her face.

“I’m fine,” Xing Jiuan said softly in comfort.

Actually, she also felt that there was something wrong with her.

The way she was treating Lu Zhichen right now was very strange.

Her hands uncontrollably sent out a response.

[21st: Okay.]

It was a simple word that she had sent without any hesitation.

When Lu Zhichen saw it, he smiled happily.

Xing Jiuan felt that her hands had been so fast that her brain could not manage to catch up to them. However, she thought about it after and did not withdraw her message.

Instead, she sent out a dry question.

[21st: Unhappy?]

[Lu Zhichen: I just missed you suddenly!]

Xing Jiuan instantly turned cold. Since he could speak like this, there was definitely no problem.

She did not respond and continued to play with Xing Xiaolang, who was waiting obediently beside her.

Xing Xiaolang was especially happy. Perhaps it was because it had not seen Xing Jiuan in a long time, or perhaps it was because it wanted to play with Xing Jiuan for a while longer, but it kept playing with Xing Jiuan with its tongue hanging out, panting.

No matter how good Xing Jiuan’s physical fitness was, she could not withstand playing like this. She called out to stop.

“Xing Xiaolang, let’s rest for a while and play together later.”

The wolf accompanied her obediently to rest.

Master and the others then came over.

“Tired?” Master asked with a smile as he sat down.

“We played for a long time,” Xing Jiuan said.

Master smiled and said, “I heard that Lu Zhichen has been meeting you a lot recently.”

“Master knows him too?” Xing Jiuan did not react for a moment.

When she remembered, she smiled in embarrassment. “My mind is muddled.”

“Silly,” Lin Feng said with a smile. He even wanted to pat Xing Jiuan on the shoulder.

Xing Jiuan looked up at him. Xing Xiaolang gritted its teeth.

“Alright, alright. I can’t afford to offend you.” He raised his hands in a gesture of surrender. “I’m done talking.”

Xing Jiuan then retracted her gaze. Xing Xiaolang also retracted its sharp teeth but still looked at him.

Eldest Senior Brother glanced at him. “You’re just asking for a rebuff.”

Lin Feng was speechless.

It was fine. He should be used to this.

Everyone here was sharp-tongued. He was the only one who was a pushover!

He did not mind!
