"Mmm~!" Li ngjie narrowed her eyes with a mischievous smile and said, "It seems our Miss Ling really cares about the Cold Bodyguard. Sure! No problem, since Xuejiu has spoken, how dare I refuse?" As she spoke, she scooped up a spoonful of rice and, smiling, said to Leng Xuan, "Co on, Cold Bodyguard, I’m giving you my ’first ti’ here."
"Pfft!" Leng Xuan had just taken a bite of rice, not yet chewed it thoroughly, and when he heard Li ngjie’s words, he imdiately spat it out, thankfully turning his head so it didn’t land on Li ngjie’s face. Ling Xuejiu was also stunned, covering her forehead with her hand, shocked by Li ngjie’s bombshell remark.
Seeing the exaggerated reactions of both, Li ngjie couldn’t help but purse her lips in a smile. "What were you thinking? I ant it’s the first ti I’ve fed soone, that’s all. Why are your minds so dirty?"
Both Ling Xuejiu and Leng Xuan were half-amused, half-annoyed. Who didn’t know what kind of a person Miss Li was? However, no one was calling her out at that mont.
Under Li ngjie’s attentive care, Leng Xuan quickly finished off the large lunchbox of food, even feeling sowhat longing for more. The flavor of the al was truly not bad—it seed the cook was quite skilled.
After Ling Xuejiu and the others packed up their things, they didn’t leave but found chairs to sit down in, keeping Leng Xuan company for a chat. This flattering treatnt surprised Leng Xuan, who had been living with the two beauties for so long without such attention, and he couldn’t help but smile wryly, "You don’t need to keep company here; go back to your classes. Don’t miss them because of ."
"Don’t flatter yourself," Ling Xuejiu rolled her eyes and said, "My parents know about your injury; they will be coming to see you soon, so I’m waiting here for them."
At that mont, Li ngjie leaned in and asked, "Cold Bodyguard, tell us about your heroic deeds last night. How did you get injured? And what’s the deal with you and Zhou Li? Has she offered herself to you in gratitude?"
The barrage of questions gave Leng Xuan a headache, but, touched by the girls’ concern for his injury, he didn’t feel right hiding anything. "Last night, Zhou Li was abducted by a thug. I happened to find out and located her. The thug who kidnapped her was quite strong. During the fight, I was outmatched and got injured. But let’s just say he didn’t have it easy either, probably worse off than ," he recalled the horrifying rapid aging caused by the Life Drain of the Soul-devouring Needle, grateful that such a terrifying weapon was in his hands.
"Is that so?" Li ngjie pretended to be sour, "Cold Bodyguard, aren’t you a little too nice to Zhou Li? Hehe, is it really like the school rumors say, that you two are in a romantic relationship?"
"Uh?" Leng Xuan was startled for a mont, then gave a wry smile, "No."
"Really?" Li ngjie was sowhat skeptical. "Last night, when you entered the operating room, she seed really anxious."
After Li ngjie spoke, Ling Xuejiu, who had been pretending to be indifferent, also leaned forward slightly, clearly eager for Leng Xuan’s answer.
Leng Xuan paused, knowing he’d be lying if he said he wasn’t touched, but Li ngjie’s question wasn’t easy to answer. After all, his relationship with Zhou Li was truly nothing special at the mont, friends at best? He gave another wry smile and said, "Don’t get any wrong ideas, we are really just friends. Besides, you might not know, but I t Zhou Li’s brother, Zhou Jingpeng, a long ti ago. We lost touch due to so reasons, and it was purely coincidental we t again this ti. Zhou Jingpeng and I were close buddies back in the day, so naturally, I would look after his sister as well."
