Lin Lan was not the least embarrassed, still helping Luo Ziling easily and composedly walked towards the small building she resided in, under the gaze of her comrades, without a word of explanation.
"Let me walk by myself," Luo Ziling finally struggled out of Lin Lan's support, his face flushing as he explained to those muscled men who were looking at him weirdly, "Treated an elder, exhausted my strength, she's helping me rest a bit."
In fact, Luo Ziling's explanation was unnecessary, his clarification did not change the astonishment in the hearts of Lin Lan's comrades.
They knew Lin Lan's temperament best; she was a female soldier who never feigned kindness to any man, fiery in nature, unbullied and unteased. They had been with Lin Lan for years and never saw her intimate with another man; it could be said that within Dragon Rise, everyone disregarded her gender.
