"I always said Fang Ze has this very special charm that makes people like and trust him involuntarily."
"The first ti I laid eyes on him, I could tell he was extraordinary."
"Back then, you always called silly. Now look, who's the silly one?"
Bai Ling munched on chicken wings while her lips babbled on non-stop, as if eating didn't affect her speaking at all.
anwhile, Bai Zhi across from her seed to pay no heed to Bai Ling's words.
She was clutching a rmaid statue in her hand, staring into space.
Noticing Bai Zhi's odd behavior, Bai Ling tilted her head in confusion, waved her greasy little hand in front of Bai Zhi, and asked, "Bai, are you listening to ?"
Startled by Bai Ling's question, Bai Zhi let out an "Ah?" and ca back to reality.
She still rembered Bai Ling's first sentence about Fang Ze being charming. Perhaps thinking of sothing, she imdiately retorted, "What charm could he possibly have...?"
"Is it because he's handso, strong, has great potential, or his unmatched wit...?" By the end, even she sounded less convinced.
Bai Ling gave Bai Zhi a puzzled look. It felt like Bai Zhi wasn't ridiculing Fang Ze, but instead praising him...
Just as she was thinking this, Bai Zhi suddenly seed to rember sothing and changed the subject, "Bai Ling. I have a question for you."
Bai Ling tilted her head toward Bai Zhi.
"What does it an when soone suddenly gives you a gift... and an expensive one at that?" asked Bai Zhi.
"That's pretty normal," Bai Ling replied innocently.
A question mark slowly ford above Bai Zhi's head, "Normal?"
"Yeah. My parents also give expensive gifts out of the blue," Bai Ling said.
Counting on her fingers, she mumbled, "For my last birthday, they gave a pair of magic shoes, said they'd help run faster if I was in danger."
"The birthday before that, I got a vest, called anti-wolf, said it'd protect when they were busy."
"The birthday before that one..."
Seeing Bai Ling about to ramble on, Bai Zhi hurriedly interrupted her, "Stop, stop, stop! What are all these things?"
"I'm talking about really valuable stuff!"
"Like..."
She thought for a mont and added, "A Disaster Creature worth millions of Linis..."
Upon hearing Bai Zhi's words, Bai Ling's eyes widened in shock, covering her mouth as she looked at Bai Zhi in surprise.
Seeing that Bai Ling understood her point, Bai Zhi urgently sought confirmation with her eyes.
Then she heard Bai Ling exclaim in astonishnt, "Bai, your parents are that generous with you!"
Bai Zhi: .....
Bai Zhi facepald.
She felt discussing such matters with Bai Ling was a mistake.
The girl's thought process was so unique, it often made people want to crack open her head and check if it was all just water...
Sensing Bai Zhi's speechlessness, Bai Ling blinked her eyes twinklingly and then suddenly realized, "Bai, you an... a mber of the opposite sex, who isn't a relative, gave you an expensive gift?"

Seeing Bai Ling finally understood, Bai Zhi casually nodded and said, "Yeah... sothing like that."
Bai Ling thought for a mont, then said, "Millions of Linis, huh."
"If it were , I'd probably marry them right away."
"Money doesn't matter. I just have to like them, no matter how foolish.
"Just think. Giving such an expensive gift without even being together. How silly can you get? If they're this silly before marriage, they'll definitely be sillier after!"
"Then who runs the household? Hah, hah, hah!"
Bai Zhi:....
Bai Zhi felt it was a mistake to discuss this topic with this little joker.
With that thought, and seeing Bai Ling start to endlessly analyze post-marriage scenarios, competitive tactics, and eavesdropping secrets, Bai Zhi dug into her pocket, pulled out a hundred-Lini note, crumpled it up, and threw it at Bai Ling, "Shut up!"
Being unexpectedly hit in the forehead with a wad of cash made Bai Ling quite angry!
She stood up with her hands on her hips and looked at Bai Zhi defiantly, saying, "Bai, are you insulting ?!"
Bai Zhi looked back at her, "And what if I am?"
Bai Ling pouted, "Then please insult 10 tis! Once isn't enough for the lunch I brought you!"
Bai Zhi:......
......
anwhile, while Bai Zhi and Bai Ling were bantering, in the training center's instructors' cafeteria...
Several instructors were also there, eating.
They chatted idly as they ate.
A male instructor asked "Master" with a laugh, "I heard your class today was quite lively, Director?"
Hearing the instructor's words, the other instructors all looked over curiously, Qing Ya included, wondering what had happened.
Then they saw "Master" smile slightly, a barely discernible curve at the corner of her mouth, as she said, "It was a bit lively."
"All these years, never have I seen a trainee dare to do such a thing."
The instructors had a good relationship and knew "Master's" personality well.
Normally she looked so stern she could scare soone to death.
Even when dealing with colleagues, she mostly remained serious. Therefore, a slight smile on her face was an indication of an exceptionally good mood.
