After Lu Qingyun's heart-stopping fortuitous encounter with Qin Keqin, he did not have any chances to be alone with her. It was because the day of the core protégé martial tournament was soon due and the grand elders had been requesting her to attend one sect meeting after another.
Qin Keqin was also not serious about confining him and she had sent Lie Xingyuan to tell him that he should not be practicing day in and night out in the practice chamber. Instead he should relax and take a stroll around the premises.
It was a big hint to him that she was not upset with him.
In fact she was back to her usual self and they were even exchanging playful glances in the days that had followed when Lie Xingyuan was not looking their way.
Soon it was now the day of the martial tournament and there were eighteen core protégés that would be competing against one another.
