Suddenly, she seed to understand sothing and said:
"It's different, she's your woman, you should be protecting her!"
"Yes, yes, you're right! Thank you, little Commandery Princess, for saving my life just now!"
Su Chen said with a smile. He was just teasing earlier and had no intention of arguing with such a little girl!
"That's more like it!"
Jin Muxi nodded, but felt he was rely being perfunctory.
Jiang Shiqi naturally knew Su Chen was intentionally teasing the girl earlier, and she found it amusing too!
Especially when he referred to her as his woman, making her cheeks blush and heart race!
Seeing that Su Chen didn't refute, her heart stirred with ripples...
In fact, for Jiang Shiqi, her genuine fondness for Su Chen didn't stem from his unexpected victory over Xue Hong at the Yuntong Comrce Guild's entrance, nor from his dominance at the City Lord's Mansion!
Though at that mont, she did feel his dazzling brilliance!
Looking back now, what she truly cherished were the little monts when they lived next door to each other and weren't that close yet...
They would chat during their free ti, and he would cook for them!
That was when she felt the most pressured, and his presence was her only escape for relief!
Thinking back now, those are her fondest mories...
"By the way, my na is Jin Muxi, what's your na?"
Jin Muxi curiously asked, as she felt this person was different from others!
As for how exactly different, she couldn't quite pinpoint it, but he was indeed special!
"Su Chen!"
Su Chen replied with a smile.
"And this sister?"
She glanced at Jiang Shiqi and asked.
Jiang Shiqi didn't hide it and told her.
In fact, she was quite grateful to this suddenly appearing, pretty, cute, and clever little Commandery Princess!
After all, she didn't want to see Su Chen truly clash with Wu Xing; the situation defused naturally due to the little Commandery Princess's status, which was ideal!
Just then, a butler-like person approached, looking at Jin Muxi without saying anything!
"So annoying, being alone won't cause any trouble!"
Jin Muxi pouted upon seeing the person and said:
"I have to go now, I'll co play with you when I have the ti!"
Su Chen and Jiang Shiqi both nodded with smiles, guessing this little Commandery Princess was quite unruly too!
Shortly after Jin Muxi left, He Qishan approached!
Upon seeing Jiang Shiqi, he squinted at Su Chen and said jokingly:
"Miss Jiang, it's been a long ti!"
Jiang Shiqi smiled back, as the two were sowhat acquainted!
"By the way, after circling around, did you find any news?"
Su Chen asked casually.
"Plenty of juicy news indeed!"
He Qishan beca excited upon hearing this.
Before Su Chen could ask further, he continued:
"Aside from Cheng Hai, the most talked-about topic I ntioned last ti, there are two others attracting attention!"
"One is Wang Sheng from the Wang Family, and the other is the little Commandery Princess of the Prince's Mansion, Jin Muxi. While they aren't as remarkable as Cheng Hai, they're said to be sothing special!"
Su Chen nodded upon hearing this, having just t the little princess earlier, indeed impressive!
"Cheng Hai, Wang Sheng, and Jin Muxi are the most outstanding ones, but others like Yu Feng, Shi Yikun, etc., are also in the spotlight!"
He Qishan then shared the newly gathered information with Su Chen!
Most of these people ca from Changyang City, which is normal since it's the Capital County, the depth of the Changyang Prefecture's power lies here!
The deeper the foundation, the easier it is to nurture talents!
It's like on Earth, if a high school is the best in the city, the percentage of top scorers from that school is naturally the highest!
Though the two aren't the sa thing, the principle is similar!
"Su Chen!"
At this mont, a surprised voice rang out beside him!
Upon hearing that familiar voice, Su Chen turned his head to look!
Seeing the figure, he was taken aback, thinking his eyes were playing tricks!
Upon closer inspection, it was indeed the long-unseen Nie Qianqian before him!
"How are you here?"
Su Chen asked in surprise.
"Why can't I be here!"
Nie Qianqian retorted.
Su Chen internally grumbled: this girl, why is she still so feisty!
Nie Qianqian of course wouldn't tell him that she ca here just for him!
After Su Chen left Wild Bat City, Nie Qianqian constantly thought about him!
Finally, once the matters in Wild Bat City stabilized, she told Nie Wenyang she wanted to venture out!
No one knows a daughter like her father, Nie Wenyang understood her thoughts imdiately, realizing it wasn't a solution to keep her tied down!
So, he suggested that if she wanted to venture out, she should look for Su Chen, saying he'd feel more at ease with Su Chen around!
If she couldn't find him, she should hurry back!
Upon hearing this, Nie Qianqian imdiately knew her father saw through her thoughts, feeling so shy she wished to dig a hole and hide...
However, the next day, she packed so essentials and money, setting off to Guangping City to find Su Chen!
As she neared Guangping City, she heard about the recruitnt by the Four Major Academies!
With a shift in her mind, she thought: Guangping City is so big, finding him with no clue is tougher!
Yet, given Su Chen's abilities, he's likely to join the academies' selection. Rather than blindly searching, she decided to head straight to Changyang City, which seed more promising!
Thus, she headed for Changyang City directly!
Early this morning, she arrived here. With multiple entrances to the Martial Training Ground, waiting at the gate was futile, so she searched within!
Fortunately, she finally found him!
"And this is...?"
Seeing the scene, He Qishan smirked playfully!
Despite the girl's initial unkindness towards Su Chen, anyone could see she felt differently about him!
And apart from her differing style from Jiang Shiqi, she too was a rare beauty!
Su Chen's charm with won was truly enviable!
Such comparisons could really spark envy and anger!
"Oh, this is Nie Qianqian, a friend of mine!"
Su Chen said with a smile:
"Qianqian, this is He Qishan, and this is Jiang Shiqi, both are also my friends!"
Upon Su Chen's introduction, they all exchanged greetings.
