"Pfft!"
Xu Ruoying was eating dried strawberries when she suddenly spat them out.
She immediately sat up and looked coldly at Chi Ling, "What did you call him?"
"Husband, ah. Our marriage was agreed upon by Second Master and Father Feng."
Chi Ling clung to Feng Lin's arm. "If you want to object, go talk to them."
"Enough!"
Feng Lin pulled his arm free. "Xiao Ying has had a tough time recently, let's not upset her any further."
"Wait! What do you mean by 'a tough time'? If I hadn't had a tough time, would she have been allowed to upset me?"
Xu Ruoying pouted somewhat displeased.
"Absolutely not, just hold on, let's discuss serious matters."
Feng Lin put his arm around Xu Ruoying's shoulder and turned to Chi Ling, "What's up?"
"Can I join this mission? Although I'm not very strong, at least I have reached the Tempering Realm."
Chi Ling glanced at Xu Ruoying, meaningfully indicating to her.
A mere Penetrative Realm, nothing to be smug about.
