Chapter 222 - Tu Xiupei Turns Into a Big Joke (1/2)
Xi Jin passed the other letter of recommendation to Feng Tianlan and stood up. “But if one is not a phoenix in the first place, no matter how high she flies, she will never be a phoenix, merely a crow!”
Tu Xiupei saw that the other letter of recommendation had been placed in front of Feng Tianlan and panicked. But then, she thought about what Xi Jin had said and felt glee in her heart. Big Brother Jin was saying that Feng Tianlan was a crow, a symbol of bad luck. He was standing up for her.
Feng Tianlan looked up at Xi Jin and saw Tu Xiupei’s gleeful face out of the corner of her eye. She curled her lips a little. Did Tu Xiupei think that Big Brother Jin’s words were meant for her? That was obviously a warning to Tu Xiupei.
“I will not stay any longer in the Guiyuan Continent. I take my leave.” Xi Jin looked at the calm and emotionless Feng Tianlan. There was a strange feeling in his heart as he realized that she understood what he was trying to say.
Tu Xiupei hurriedly stood up. “Big Brother Jin, you’re going back to the Xuantian Continent already?”
He had just arrived the day before, and he was already going back?
Xi Jin nodded and looked at Tu Xiupei for a long time but decided against saying what was in his heart. “Till we meet again.”
If she were really Dai’er, they would surely meet again. He was going back to ask if she was indeed Dai’er. If she were, then he would come back to fetch her.
“Then…” Tu Xiupei turned his words around. “When will see each other again?”
Wasn’t he taking her with him? Wasn’t she the one he was looking for? Wasn’t she the phoenix?
“Wait for me to go back and ask. We may meet again soon.” He had to ask Ya’er if Tu Xiupei was really Dai’er or not.
