18th Generation Son-in-law - C230
Ling Xiangchen?
When Yao Yuan heard this name, he felt that it was extremely familiar, as if he had heard this name somewhere before.
“I think we know each other.”
Ling Xiangchen’s face carried a trace of a peaceful smile, and under the contrast of the moonlight, he seemed exceptionally handsome.
That’s right, with Ling Xiangchen’s looks, even as a man, he couldn’t help but exclaim.
After all, they were both men. The difference in beauty was originally something that made people unwilling to accept it, let alone continuously praise it.
Yao Yuan looked at Ling Xiangchen coldly and said: “Have we met each other before? How come I don’t remember when it happened? ”
How could Ling Xiangchen not know what Yao Yuan was thinking? He only smiled slightly and did not say anything else.
“Can we sit down and have a drink?”
Ling Xiangchen did not hesitate to sit right next to Yao Yuan and take out a bottle of wine from his pocket: “This has been stored in my family for many years, if I did not see you, I would not have taken it out.”
It sounded like Ling Xiangchen valued Yao Yuan immensely, just that the latter was still unable to understand where the point of importance was.
However, since the other party was so friendly and Yao Yuan did not feel any hostility towards him, in the end, he also sat down with him and drank the wine that Ling Xiangchen had specially brought from far away.
“So, have we met before?”
Yao Yuan felt that he had forgotten something. In his memory, there was a person’s figure that was constantly flashing. He stared straight into Ling Xiangchen’s eyes and asked: “You’re also from Qingjiang?”
Ling Xiangchen laughed out loud, “That’s right, in the selection competition back then, the ones standing at the end were me and Miss Miao.”
After saying that, Yao Yuan suddenly remembered why he felt that this name was familiar. He also remembered that day when he was preparing to leave Qingjiang City and go to the Mount Li, Miao Ling received a call before boarding the plane. It was as if he had mentioned the name “Ling Xiangchen”.
“So it’s you.”
In this way, Yao Yuan finally recognized Ling Xiangchen. He knew that the relationship between Miao Ling and him could be considered to be not that bad, or at least that way, there wouldn’t be too much danger.
“Why are you so slow? I thought we were the last one. We’ve already decided to not see anyone tonight, and to think that we would actually meet you. It’s really quite interesting.”
Yao Yuan laughed out loud, he had never thought that he would be able to meet someone else at this time. The most important thing was that he would still meet someone he knew, it was truly dramatic.
Yao Yuan sighed with emotion: “I thought that I could do something this time, but I didn’t expect that my arrogance would cause us to fall into a particularly difficult situation. If it wasn’t for luck, could you have seen that we were both in the same boat?”
Yao Yuan ridiculed him for a long time. Previously, because Miao Ling was by her side, she was never willing to voice out these negative emotions, afraid that Miao Ling would lose her confidence.
Now, with great difficulty, he finally found someone who could listen to what he said, and Yao Yuan told him all of his grievances.
did not interrupt him, he only listened quietly, and would occasionally raise his wine cup to calm Yao Yuan down. After Yao Yuan finished speaking, he smiled at him and said: “How do you know that you are already lagging behind.”
Hearing Ling Xiangchen’s words, Yao Yuan looked at him like he was looking at a fool and said: “Others might not know, but could it be that you still don’t know how many people have already walked past in front of you?”
With that, Yao Yuan laid on the ground and said: “Actually, even if I don’t see you, I already know that it’s already night time, I have only walked about a third of the way ahead of the group.”
“If you were really at the front of the entire Pond Fish Competition team, would you believe it?”
Ling Xiangchen ate a peanut and smiled at Yao Yuan.
Yao Yuan did not even look at the expression in Ling Xiangchen’s eyes, and sighed: “If that’s really the case, then that means that the participants this time are too weak, and I might even be able to get first place.”
Ling Xiangchen suddenly laughed loudly.
“This time, you are probably wrong.”
Ling Xiangchen suddenly said something from nowhere, causing him to be stunned. He quickly sat up and borrowed the moonlight to look into Ling Xiangchen’s eyes and asked: “What do you mean?”
He smiled and waved his hand. “Look behind me. If nothing unexpected happens, you will see at least three or four people walking this way tonight. This is the reason.”
Yao Yuan realized something.
“You’re the first person here?”
The first person would definitely not be the strongest, but Yao Yuan’s meaning was also very simple. The first person to clear the trial.
“That’s right. But what I didn’t expect was that there would be someone even faster than me who would wait here early.”
Ling Xiangchen was very confident in his strength. After all, he was able to suppress his cultivation and his current strength was already not something that many people at this level could compare to. But even so, there was actually someone who was faster than him within the Pond Fish Stage.
“It’s probably luck.”
Yao Yuan chuckled. At this time, Yao Yuan’s heart had also become a lot more cheerful, and his tone of voice had also become much more relaxed.
“Perhaps the road on the back of Mount Li is closer, as we walk relatively quickly, so the time to arrive here is now.”
Yao Yuan didn’t care whether he was the first one to arrive here or not, what was more fortunate was that he still had the chance to complete a few of the plans he had made previously.
“Not necessarily.”
Ling Xiangchen seemed to want to be serious, so he opened up the map and prepared to see if the distance to the back of the Mount Li was even shorter. Right at this moment, Yao Yuan held onto Ling Xiangchen’s hand, and gently shook his head: “Some things are better off not thinking too much.”
Ling Xiangchen was a smart person, he knew what Yao Yuan meant. He smiled, and consciously rolled up the map again and placed it in his own arms.
Yao Yuan naturally did not mind. In any case, they knew each other, and since they were both from the same place, it was not bad that they could help each other out. Thus, he nodded and agreed.
“Fine, let’s travel together then. Let’s see if there are any more problems for the remaining two-thirds of the journey.”
