"You're really asking for trouble, aren't you?" Zhang Chaoqian leaned against a lab bench, taking joy in Li Zhi's misfortune, "Haven't you learned a thing after following Master Cheng for all these years? And who gave you the right to call her 'little junior sister'?"
"Okay, okay, Master Cheng, aren't you here to save the day?" Li Zhi looked like a man resigned to his fate, "All I wanted was to get a bit closer to junior sister, so she could say a few good words about me in front of Gu Shuangshuang. I had no other intentions."
"You'd better not have." Zhang Chaoqian fawned to Cheng Yue, "Right, Master Cheng!"
Cheng Yue had no interest in entertaining him, leaving Zhang Chaoqian to his own devices.
Li Zhi felt unsettled, slammed the table, and grabbed Zhang Chaoqian by the ear, "So you've grown bold, huh? Since when have you swapped ranks with me? Getting too big for your boots, are you? Don't forget, I'm the second in command here, and you're third!"
