Annoyed, Xia Yuqing

"Zhiqing, Junyu, I'll go and see the Hall Master first."

Bai Li Hongzhuang's gaze fell on Qin Ai, who was standing at the front of the group. Today was the day of the exchange between Tian Gang Sect and the Medicine Sect regarding alchemy.

Therefore, the four Hall Masters, who were rarely seen on ordinary days, also appeared today.

Since she would be participating in the Alchemist Competition once it started, she wanted to greet the Hall Master first.

"Alright, Hongzhuang, go ahead," Bai Junyu smiled and said.

Bai Li Hongzhuang nodded slightly and walked towards the front of the group.

After Bai Li Hongzhuang left, Xia Zhiqing finally let out a sigh of relief. "Junyu, I'm glad you reminded me earlier, or I would have almost asked something I shouldn't have."

She felt helpless about her curiosity. Whenever she encountered something she didn't understand, she couldn't help but want to ask questions.

She had already wanted to inquire when she saw Bai Li Hongzhuang twice before, but she had always suppressed her thoughts and never spoken them out.

Today, when she saw Hongzhuang arrive late, she became a bit anxious and couldn't control herself.

Looking at Xia Zhiqing's helpless appearance, Bai Junyu's smile softened and became warm.

"Zhiqing, I know you mean no harm, but you're just too impulsive. However, Hongzhuang is different from us. She is not an ordinary person to begin with, so the things she encounters are naturally different from ours. If it's something she can say, she would have already told us sincerely. If she hasn't mentioned it by now, it means that it's not suitable for her to tell us. If we ask, won't it put Hongzhuang in a difficult position?"

Bai Junyu's voice was gentle. After being together with Xia Zhiqing for so long, he understood her temperament well.

She was always impulsive, saying whatever came to her mind, often realizing the consequences only after the fact.

So as her man, he could only remind her repeatedly.

The friendship between them and Hongzhuang had always been beneficial to them. On the contrary, they had never done anything to help Hongzhuang.

If they caused trouble for Hongzhuang in such a situation, it would be inappropriate.

In fact, including Dongfang Yu and the others, they had already reached an unspoken understanding.

Everyone would have their own secrets, as long as it didn't affect their friendship, there was no need to reveal those secrets.

Xia Zhiqing's eyes shimmered with understanding and regret. "I understand. I won't do this again in the future."

She was feeling speechless about her own character at the moment.

In contrast to Xia Zhiqing's frustration, Bai Li Hongzhuang didn't care at all about what had happened earlier.

She walked slowly towards the position where Qin Ai was, and many disciples from the various halls had come today.

Except for some disciples who were in seclusion and not suitable to appear, almost all the disciples who had the time had come.

Therefore, as Bai Li Hongzhuang walked from the back to the front, she had to spend more time to avoid causing any commotion.

The disciples of Zhuque Hall, upon seeing Bai Li Hongzhuang approaching, didn't stay in their designated positions but continued walking towards the front, furrowing their brows.

"Now that everyone is in position, why is Bai Li Hongzhuang suddenly coming over? What does she want to do every time she appears as if she has to do something different from others?"

"Who knows? Every time she shows up, it's like she must do something out of the ordinary."

"Based on her appearance, it seems like she wants to see the Hall Master!"
