"Miss."

"Greetings, Young Master Chen."

Chen Mo and Lin Jingzhu entered the Lin Residence, and the maids they passed by bowed to greet them.

Unlike last time, besides curiosity, their gazes towards Chen Mo held more reverence and admiration.

The Heavenly Element Martial Champion, Qingyun Leaderboard, the youngest Deputy Thousand Households in the history of the Sky Scale Guard... any one of these titles is enough to terrify people.

Moreover, he was the life-saving benefactor of the young lady, a highly honored guest repeatedly instructed by Lady Jin Yun not to be slighted.

"Is that Young Master Chen? I didn’t see him last time. He turns out to be so handsome, no wonder the young lady is so taken with him..."

"The two are of similar age, a perfect match of talent and beauty, maybe he will become our Lin Residence’s future son-in-law."

"Having such a son-in-law would be great, capable and presentable, then let’s see who dares to ridicule us as a household of women..."

"But I heard that Young Master Chen is already engaged?"

"..."

The girls covered their mouths, whispering, and even from afar, one could feel the blazing fire of gossip.

Lin Jingzhu’s cheeks reddened a bit, and she stealthily glanced at Chen Mo. Seeing he was not displeased, she sighed in relief.

"Mr. Chen..." She hesitated for a moment before speaking softly.

"What’s wrong?" Chen Mo asked.

"That day at Xuanqing Pool..." Lin Jingzhu’s fingers clutched her hem, speaking softly, "I was just in a rush, I didn’t mean to ride on your face..."

Thinking of that visible scene, Chen Mo felt a slight ripple in his heart and said with a smile, "Of course, I know, and I have to thank Lin Catcher for helping me out, otherwise I would have been chopped into pieces by the Empress."

"But, that’s where we relieve ourselves... dirty..."

Lin Jingzhu’s voice was as faint as a mosquito’s buzz, and her head almost buried in her chest.

Despite her bold and carefree personality, like a chivalrous traveler in Jianghu, she was, in essence, still an unmarried maiden, and such matters were difficult for her to accept... The intense shame felt like a blazing fire, nearly burning her out.

"Not dirty at all."

"...What?"

Lin Jingzhu thought she had misheard, raising her head in a daze.

Looking against the light, she saw Chen Mo’s gentle gaze, sunlight spilling from behind, gilding his face with a golden edge, "I said, Lin Catcher is very clean and cute, not dirty at all."

Lin Jingzhu, with her ice-like skin and jade bones, exquisite and pink, had nothing to do with the word dirty.

Moreover, she disregarded her maidenly modesty and reputation to cover for him, such sentiment need not be spoken, how could Chen Mo ever hold it against her?

(⊙ˍ⊙)

"Clean and... cute?"

Lin Jingzhu’s expression was blank, a blush spreading like the rosy clouds at dawn.

"You’ve seen Lord Chen, and I’ve seen Lin Catcher, which means we’re even now." Chen Mo teased.

"..."
