Chapter 5879

“What’s going on with you lately, Senior Brother Yan Lie? You’re always looking for me.”

After being called away yet again under the pretext of discussing alchemy experience, Huo Ling’er couldn’t help complaining to Chen Ping. “I’ve never seen him this enthusiastic before.”

Chen Ping smiled faintly. “Maybe Deacon Yan truly cares about the princess.”

“Oh, please.”

Huo Ling’er curled her lips. “I know exactly what he’s thinking. He just feels uncomfortable seeing me get close to you. Hmph—so petty.”

She glanced at Chen Ping, a trace of cunning flashing in her eyes. “But don’t be afraid of him. With me around, he wouldn’t dare do anything to you.”

“If he dares cause you trouble again, tell me. I’ll have my father deal with him.”
