Lin Yao froze when he heard what Meng Xing said. His face turned pale as his pupils trembled in fear. Don't… don't tell me… Meng Xing recognized Lin Ze? He thought as his hand trying to open the door again trembled and slipped. It almost cut his palm. No… no way, right? His pupils shook.
Lin Yao could feel his heart thump loudly against his chest. He nervously gulped down his saliva as he forced a laugh. "H – hahaha… yes… many people often say that my friend is a familiar person…" he said and smiled, though it looked like he was crying instead.
"Oh, I see…" Meng Xing muttered and he nodded in understanding. "I just thought that he is…" he said.
"W – who?" Lin Yao nervously asked as his hand turned Lin Ze's face stiffened. He almost dropped Lin Ze's mask to the floor, revealing Lin Ze's face! He almost exposed his lie!
"Hm? Ah, no one important." Meng Xing answered and smiled.
