1640 Flipping Over Right Away (1/2)

”If she's willing to help us, I don't think we should worry about her intentions. It's not like someone's unexplainable relationship with her during the World College Tournament isn't in play here,” Zhao Manyan said.
Mo Fan glared at Zhao Manyan, indicating he should shut his mouth.
”Let's get some rest for now. We'll make our move once we receive the update from her,” Mu Ningxue said.

The meeting was dismissed. Brianca and Heidi were the last to leave Mo Fan's room. Mo Fan walked them to the door and waved his hand to say goodbye, but Brianca suddenly turned around and looked at Mo Fan.
”What is it?” Mo Fan asked.
”The woman just then was Asha'ruiya, one of the Candidates of the Parthenon Temple, right? You two seem pretty close to one another,” Brianca asked him.
”How did you know?” Mo Fan's eyes widened.
”You said her name when you were demanding the name of the culprit from her. I didn't want to interrupt since you looked very serious just then,” Heidi replied stiffly.
”Huh? Did I say her name? Am I that stupid?” Mo Fan was stunned. He recalled the meeting and realized he did call her actual name. He was burning with rage, and completely forgot about the opposition between them.
”Humph, I kept wondering why have so many medicines of the Parthenon Temple. You've been keeping it a secret for so long. Are you seriously treating us like three-year-olds!?” Heidi said.
”I knew her even before the World College Tournament. We did one another some favors, but we weren't that close, either. Please don't misunderstand, I was only keeping it a secret because I know how opposed you two are to the Parthenon Temple. To be honest, not everyone in the Parthenon Temple is a snob,” Mo Fan explained in an awkward tone.
”We aren't unreasonable, either. If you had told us right away, why would we be biased against you? After all, you're not from the Parthenon Temple. You shouldn't have hidden it from us, it will only make us more suspicious,” Brianca scolded him.
”I got it...” Mo Fan nodded. He immediately thought about Xinxia, and was wondering if he should tell them now.
They were already overreacting because of Asha'ruiya. If he told them about Xinxia now, they were most likely going to explode. He seriously did not understand; the people of the Alps Institute were very womanlike in terms of their attitude toward the Parthenon Temple. ”You are not allowed to have a pleasant conversation with the people I hate, it's a form of betrayal!”
It seemed like it was going to be difficult to convince the Alps Institute to cooperate with Xinxia...
