Chapter 138 - Ah Zi's biological parents

”Wait for you to finish? ”How long have you been waiting for me? A pot of hot tea was boiling cold, do you even care about how I feel?” Ruan Xingzhu looked at Duan Zhengchun who had a fake smile on his face, and unrestrainedly berated.

Hearing that, Duan Zhengchun's face immediately became ugly. No matter what, he was a prince of the Dali royal family, how could he let a woman impolitely teach him a lesson?

”Enough, stop messing around, there are still customers here! Can you wait until This King returns? ” Duan Zhengchun was very angry, but in front of Ling Xiao and the others, especially in front of Ah Zi, he definitely could not ruin his image.

Sensing that Duan Zhengchun was not joking, Ruan Xingzhu did not poke anymore, and turned to look at Ling Xiao and Ah Zi.

When she looked at Ah Zi, Ruan Xingzhu was stunned, as if she had seen her younger self.

At this time, Ling Xiao also compared Ah Zi and Ruan Xingzhu, and realised that the two of them did indeed have some similarities.

In that short period of time, Ruan Xingzhu was actually lost in thought, but she kept staring at Ah Zi, which made him feel uncomfortable, and she subconsciously shrunk her head, wanting to hide behind Ling Xiao.

In fact, the one who was most nervous in pavilion was Duan Zhengchun, upon seeing this scene, he immediately coughed twice, wanting to pull Ruan Xingzhu out of her thoughts.

But it was effective, Ruan Xingzhu's body trembled, she recovered from her shock and awkwardly smiled at Ah Zi, then quickly turned back to Ling Xiao.

This time, it also caused Ruan Xingzhu to be stunned for a good while, but in the end, she still asked in a probing tone, ”Sect Master Ling?”

Hearing that, Ling Xiao politely smiled, nodded and said: ”That's right, that's me. I never thought that Madam Ruan would be able to recognize me.”

Hearing that, Ruan Xingzhu was even more surprised. She looked at Ling Xiao and said in shock: ”Who doesn't know my great name, but I never thought that Sect Master Ling would know me.”

”Although I am young, I know quite a bit. Not only will I pay attention to the movements in the Jianghu, I will also be curious about some old matters.” Ling Xiao smiled, and then looked at Duan Zhengchun with a profound look.

When the latter looked into Ling Xiao's eyes, she felt goosebumps all over her body, as if all of her secrets were clearly seen by Ling Xiao.

Ling Xiao did not answer openly, so Ruan Xingzhu was also feeling very awkward, because she did not understand what Ling Xiao wanted to express.

Thus, Ruan Xingzhu could only shift her gaze away from Ling Xiao. She knew that Duan Zhengchun had definitely not come to find her to bring her to see Ling Xiao.

The most important thing should be that little girl that looked like herself. Thinking this, Ruan Xingzhu mustered up the courage to look at Ah Zi again.

Ruan Xingzhu was filled with emotions, but Ah Zi was at a loss. She did not notice that her appearance was somewhat similar to Ruan Xingzhu's.

”Young lady, may I know your name?” Ruan Xingzhu didn't care what kind of expression Duan Zhengchun had on his face, she only wanted to clear up her curiosity.

Therefore, he was preparing to pull Ruan Xingzhu away, but just as he was about to get up, he saw Ling Xiao's cold and detached expression while staring at him. This glance did not seem to matter, but scared him so much that he sat back down.
