First In Surprise, Then Delight

Lu Tingchen's smile faded when he heard that Ji Lingxiu had spoken to her. "What did she say to you?"

Chu Jiu arched an eyebrow at his reaction. "Why are you so concerned?"

Lu Tingchen replied frankly, "I'm just worried she'd affect our relationship with her drivel. We had to go through a lot to make it happen, you know."

Chu Jiu's face grew hot.

Lu Tingchen was so shameless!

How could he sound so certain when they had just gotten together?

A smile tugged at her lips. "She did tell me a lot of things."

Lu Tingchen frowned. "Like what?"

"She said she has feelings for you, she came to the frontier just for you, and you saved her once when you were children. Oh, she also said something about her being too late." Chu Jiu shrugged and informed him of everything Ji Lingxiu had said to her the night before.
