As soon as the na was ntioned, everyone's mories ca flooding back.
Connecting it to the pendant he spoke of, they all suddenly realized that the rain flower stone pendant from earlier had been secretly delivered by Feng Xi.
As for why he sent it, everyone unanimously thought of the children they had rescued from the Human Race before.
No wonder Chloe had felt Feng Xi looked sowhat familiar earlier - it turns out they had t that day.
Regarding that rain flower stone pendant, Chloe had seen all sorts of rare treasures before. At the ti, she had simply thought the pendant looked quite nice. After examining it and finding no issues, she had put it around her neck.
Chloe was rather lazy. Once she put sothing on, she wouldn't rember to take it off unless soone reminded her, especially accessories.
No matter what she did, whether fighting or bathing, she wouldn't remove it.
After wearing the rain flower stone pendant for a long ti, its presence beca unnoticeable. She hadn't taken it off for all these years.
Unexpectedly, Feng Xi had now called attention to it.
When Feng Xi saw that rain flower stone pendant, he was undoubtedly delighted.
For five years, she hadn't taken it off? Did that an...
Feng Xi dared not think further. Soone of Chloe's status was indeed not soone he could aspire to.
But knowing this in his mind didn't an he was free of fanciful thoughts.
If five years ago Feng Xi had only felt pure admiration, now his feelings had taken on a more complex hue.
It was sowhat difficult to put into words.
While Feng Xi's expression was one of pleasant surprise, Anderson imperceptibly furrowed his brow.
He coldly observed the changes in Feng Xi's expression over those few short seconds, and finally spoke:
"Don't get any ideas."
As soon as the youth's highly distinctive voice was heard, Feng Xi's expression froze, and he looked at him with an inscrutable gaze.
These two hadn't gotten along five years ago, and now eting again after five years, it could only be said that the sight of an enemy makes one's eyes burn with hatred.
Anderson tightened his arm around Chloe, subtly asserting his claim:
"There's one thing you might not have figured out yet. In the young miss's eyes, nothing is particularly special. What are you trying to say by approaching her now? Anyone who didn't know better would think you were close to her."
Just because of an insignificant rain flower stone pendant, he really thought he could consider himself soone of importance.
Anderson's gaze was too contemptuous, too matter-of-fact.
Feng Xi glared at him hatefully, his eyes filled with enmity.
As they stood there facing off, Daniel observed Anderson's expression and whispered to Qin Huaibei:
"Look at his eyes. You know what this is called?"
Qin Huaibei asked, "What?"
Katherine also looked over.
Daniel said mysteriously, enunciating each word: "The aura of the main wife."
Everyone: "..."
As if suddenly enlightened, they all exchanged knowing glances.
Their strange atmosphere made Feng Xi take notice as well. Feeling both angry and annoyed, he finally spoke in a low voice, adhering to the principle of not causing trouble with those Chloe trusted:
"I just wanted to see her."
Anderson retorted, "Are you very close with the young miss? What right do you have to see her?"
Feng Xi: "..."
He cursed at their intransigence, then said, "Is she sick? Perhaps I could..."
"Not necessary," Anderson coldly interrupted, adjusting his hold on Chloe and hugging her tighter. "We have doctors."
With those words, he left with Chloe.
Daniel and the others stood there for a mont, giving Feng Xi a sowhat apologetic smile before following.
Before walking away, Qin Huaibei said earnestly to Feng Xi:
"You're a good person, but trust , Chloe isn't a suitable match for you."
Chloe was just a troublemaker - whoever got romantically involved with her would suffer.
Feng Xi stood rooted to the spot, coldly watching their retreating figures, the look in his eyes indecipherable.
...
"Who was that person just now?" Ren Yunying asked while taking Chloe into her arms.
"Not important."
Hearing this voice, Ren Yunying raised her head slightly in surprise.
The one who had spoken was actually Anderson.
It's no wonder Ren Yunying was surprised. Anderson was an exceptionally solitary person. Unless it was sothing related to Chloe, he would keep his mouth shut at other tis, acting like a mute all day long.
Only Chloe thought he talked too much.
Ren Yunying was only surprised for a mont before saying, "Not important? Well, that's good then."
After all, it was better to let the younger generation resolve their own affairs.
Ren Yunying examined Chloe's condition, then ordered soone to take her back to the dormitory arranged by Tagar to rest.
During this ti, Qu Yan ca to visit, but in the end didn't get to see Chloe. Daniel only said that she had stayed up late the night before and fallen asleep on the way - it served Chloe right.
Faced with this half-mocking statent, Qu Yan still couldn't get used to it.
He thought to himself, how co after all these years, the people from The No.1 Military Academy still interacted in this way.
Wouldn't they end up fighting?
Of course they would fight, but no matter how much they fought, there would only be one or two winners in the end.
By the ti Chloe woke up, it was already dusk.
As soon as Chloe awoke, Qin Huaibei, who was sitting opposite her, skillfully increased the volu of the terminal's light screen.
It was playing a video of the friendly competition between Tagar Military Academy and The No.1 Military Academy.
Apparently, soone had recorded this match and uploaded it online.
Chloe coughed twice and said, "Water."
Just as she spoke, Anderson opened the door and walked in.
He was carrying a glass of water at just the right temperature.
Chloe felt the glass and said with so disapproval, "Why is it always lukewarm? I want it iced."
Anderson coaxed her in a low voice, saying that drinking iced water wasn't good for her health.
Chloe retorted, "How co you don't say it's bad for my health when I eat ice cream?"
Hearing this, Anderson didn't argue, just pushed the lukewarm water a bit closer to her.
He could be strangely persistent about certain things.
Chloe took the glass and drank it sip by sip. Just as she put the glass on the bedside table, she noticed Anderson's tense expression.
She raised an eyebrow slightly.
Years of being together ant Chloe could easily read so of Anderson's subtle expressions.
Just like now.
"Do you have sothing to tell ?"
Anderson pursed his lips and nodded.
Seeing this, Chloe turned to look at Qin Huaibei and the others, casually tossing a pillow at them and saying irritably:
"Get out, get out. Watching videos at such a high volu in a sick room, have you no sha?"
As soon as the words were spoken, they stood up, closing the terminal screen in the process.
Daniel tossed the pillow back, saying, "You're so fussy."
As he left, he naturally closed the door behind him.
With a "click," the door was shut completely.
Chloe shifted her gaze, slowly landing it on Anderson: "Tell , what's made my dear little subordinate feel wronged this ti?"
Indeed, in Chloe's eyes, when Anderson wore that expression, it ant he felt slighted.
Anderson's eyes were slightly moist as he leaned forward, touching the rain flower stone pendant on her neck. His voice was low:
"I don't like this."
