Chapter 3999: Chapter 3997-apologize

They belonged to different factions. Hong Zhong was not a member of the three pavilions at all and was not under anyone’s jurisdiction. On the contrary, many high-level cultivators asked for help from him. Who would be stupid enough to offend him?

Now that Xu Ling had given up, the others naturally wouldn’t go after Lin Yi anymore. Lin Yi could finally relax a little and get through this.

However, Lin Yi knew very well that after being targeted by Xu lingchong, he would inevitably be targeted by some people with ulterior motives. Other things aside, at least at this moment, Yu Zhe’s gaze towards him was already a little off.

When he had competed with Yu Zhe for the star inkstone as Lin er, Hong Zhong had been extremely polite to him. After that, Hong Zhong had defended him several times. Yu Zhe had seen this from the beginning.

Yu Zhe was already suspicious of Lin Yi, and Hong Zhong’s behavior today was a rare piece of evidence. Who knew, from today onwards, Lin Yi’s suspicion would surpass Kang Zhaoming ‘s, and become the number one suspect again.

Lin Yi could only smile bitterly to himself. Coming to this birthday party today had opened up a lot of knowledge, but it also left behind a lot of hidden dangers and troubles in the future. The saying “enemies meet on a narrow road” was true.

At this time, Shangguan LAN ‘er trotted over with her little Curly Bear, moving closer to Lin Yi and discussing,”Little Junior Brother, there are too many idiots here. Let’s go to the third floor!”

No matter how innocent Shangguan LAN ‘er was, she could tell from the incident just now that Lin Yi’s embarrassing identity in a high-end event like this would make him the target of all if he was even slightly targeted.

In a place like this, although Shangguan LAN ‘er was the first young lady of the rising Sky Pavilion, the others were not weak either, and their backgrounds would not lose out much to hers. After all, she was not Shangguan Tianhua himself. She wanted to use her power to protect Lin Yi like she did outside, but it didn’t work.

It was a pity that Shangguan Tianhua had never heard of Lin Yi before. Plus, he had a special identity, and his every move would be interpreted by people in a situation like this. Why would he stand up for someone he didn’t know?

So, this was a dangerous place for Lin Yi. Even if he just escaped, he’d get into trouble sooner or later if he continued to stay here. He’d better find a place to hide.

Lin Yi understood Shangguan LAN ‘er’s intentions, but he still asked,”Is this okay? Little Senior Sister, no matter what, you’re the star of today’s event, and the birthday party is only halfway through, it’s not very good to leave halfway, right?”

Shangguan LAN ‘er giggled,”what’s wrong with that? Junior Brother, you probably don’t know that the birthday banquet for me was just a cover. These high and mighty figures only care about which side they’re on and power. Why would they care about whether a little girl like me is around or not?”

Lin Yi couldn’t help but laugh, but after thinking about it carefully, Shangguan LAN ‘er’s words made sense. In an event like this where all the big shots were gathered, the only thing that could be the main focus was power.

“Alright then, thank you for your kind intentions, little Senior Sister.” Lin Yi nodded after some thought.

Although following Shangguan LAN ‘er like this might lead to gossip and even some rumors, it was better than staying here and suffering the rolling eyes of others and bearing the unexpected risks.

After the two agreed, they immediately got up with the little Curly Bear and prepared to go upstairs. However, just as they reached the stairs, they were stopped.

Given Shangguan LAN ‘er’s status, no one dared to stop her. However, the person who stood in front of them was the host of this birthday banquet, Xu lingchong.

“Junior Sister LAN ‘er, where are you going? the banquet is only halfway through.” Xu lingchong had a fake smile on her face.

Xu Yuanzheng had just reminded him that he had to grab hold of this important person, and naturally, he couldn’t let Shangguan LAN ‘er and Lin Yi slip away. If a man and a woman were to cause any immoral trouble, then he’d have nothing to do with them anymore.

“Where this young lady wants to go, it’s none of your business!” Shangguan LAN ‘er rolled her eyes at him and snorted in dissatisfaction.

Before this, even though she really hated Xu lingchong, she could still pretend to be nice to him out of respect for her elders. But after seeing how Xu lingchong made things difficult for Lin Yi today, she felt disgusted even if she had to pretend to be nice to him. She might as well just shed all pretenses of cordiality and not puke in the future.

“Uh …” Xu lingchong could not help but choke. He had never been looked down upon so disdainfully in front of others. He could not help but curse in his heart. Damn it, this woman found a wild man and even her tone of speaking was different. What a slut!

If it were not for Shangguan LAN ‘er’s identity, Xu lingchong would have dragged this adulterous couple outside and cut them into pieces. Unfortunately, he could not. Not only could he not, but he also had to be patient and serve this young lady well. Otherwise, if his grandfather, Xu Yuanzheng, found out that he was despised by this young lady, it would be a daydream for him to take over the Xu family in the future.

“What” uh “? I hate people like you who are full of bad ideas and schemes the most. Get out of my way!” Shangguan LAN ‘er huffed as she asked Xu lingchong to make way.

The corner of Xu lingchong’s mouth twitched. She forcefully suppressed the anger in her heart and forced a smile. “You’ve really misunderstood me, Lil “sis. I was only suspecting Lin Yi because I was thinking for you! I didn’t want you to be tricked! Never mind, I was misled by that Kang Zhaoming kid just now, and I was a little reckless. I offended young hero Lin, so why don’t I use this opportunity to toast young hero Lin and apologize!”

With that, Xu Ling gestured for a servant to pass them a glass of wine. She poured a glass for Lin Yi and herself and handed it to Lin Yi.

Lin Yi looked on coldly and didn’t reach out for it. He didn’t believe that lingchong would be so kind as to apologize to him sincerely.

“Lin shaoxia, I’ll personally apologize to you. You can’t refuse to give me this little bit of face, can you? as men, we can’t be so petty, right?” Xu lingchong laughed awkwardly. Then, as if she had just reacted, she squinted her eyes and said,”By the way, Lin shaoxia, you’re not afraid that the wine’s poisoned, are you? do you really think our Sky Class Island is as dirty and despicable as your secular world? you’re so petty, you really can’t see the world!”

Hearing this, Lin Yi was still unmoved, but Shangguan LAN ‘er felt indignant for him,”Hmph, how can Junior Brother not be on guard against such a sinister person like you? if you want to apologize, you can do it, but you two can exchange wine glasses first!”
