Chapter 387: Chapter 0387: Personally Deliver It (Eighth Update)

Tang Xin and Nangong Man Sha talked for a long while, and Tang Xin realized that Nangong Man Sha was not exactly as the rumors described, not so aloof or giving off a cold vibe.

Nangong Man Sha, noticing Tang Xin staring at her, asked with some curiosity, "Lady Tang Xin, why are you looking at me like that?"

It was then that Tang Xin realized her manners had lapsed and she smiled apologetically, "I just realized today that Miss Man Sha, you’re quite different from what the rumors say."

Nangong Man Sha was momentarily stunned, thinking about when they first met, there seemed to be some hostility, and perhaps at that time she should have realized that Tang Xin had some feelings for Chu Ge.

Nangong Man Sha chuckled lightly, tilted her head with a playful expression, "How am I different?"

Tang Xin parted her lips, the rumors about Nangong Man Sha she had heard were all from the Gambling Stone Field, where gossip was rampant, and these gossips’ authenticity was dubious, often shrouded with negative tones.

Now when Nangong Man Sha asked, Tang Xin was momentarily at a loss for words.

She gave an awkward smile, trying to find an excuse to brush it off, but then heard Nangong Man Sha laugh self-deprecatingly, "I know about those street rumors, so don’t feel embarrassed to speak."

Tang Xin looked at her in surprise, "You know about them?"

Nangong Man Sha nodded, "Of course, I know. We shouldn’t care about these street rumors. As long as we are alive, we’ll always be their topic of conversation after dinner."

Tang Xin, surprised by her attitude, knew that such rumors could have impacted her negatively yet she seemed so undisturbed, even appearing to not care about the gossip at all.

Thinking about it, their backgrounds defined their high status which was not chosen by them, so from the beginning, they were destined to become someone else’s standard of comparison, and entertainment for others.

This, Tang Xin deeply understood.

However, she still couldn’t remain as indifferent as Nangong Man Sha; she remembered how she used to fight and argue about these things, earning her the title ’Little Chili’.

"Actually, if you think about it, the reason they talk about us is that they are envious of what we have, which they don’t. Thinking this way, I feel much more balanced inside."

Nangong Man Sha casually flipped her hair off her shoulder, shrugging nonchalantly.

Tang Xin watched her, watching the clear look in her eyes, and suddenly felt like their hearts had drawn much closer.

...

Meanwhile, after hanging up the phone, Chu Ge lay on the bed to rest.

The death of the Ghost Poison Sect Master always seemed suspicious to him, considering the Ghost Poison Sect Master was an Innate Grandmaster, even if his foundation was destabilized by unpredictable factors, he shouldn’t have been that weak.

The fight between Gui Futu and him definitely lasted more than fifteen minutes, but his fight with the Ghost Poison Sect Master lasted less than ten minutes.

An elder willingly serving under a sect leader weaker than himself, there definitely was some unknown secret involved!

But that was all Chu Ge could think of for now. Diving deeper, he couldn’t understand any further.

Things that Chu Ge couldn’t understand, he would not delve into them further.

Lying quietly on the bed, just as he was about to close his eyes to rest, his phone rang again.

Chu Ge subconsciously thought it was Mu Bingtong calling, didn’t even glance at it before picking up, and spoke to the other end, "Wifey, I knew you wouldn’t be able to resist calling me."

The person on the other end, Shen Yaoyao, upon hearing that, blushed furiously and glared ahead furiously, "Who is your wifey! Listen clearly to who I am!"

Chu Ge abruptly shifted his gaze, then glanced at his phone screen, only then did he see Shen Yaoyao’s name clearly displayed.

Chu Ge coughed awkwardly, then asked, "What’s up? Why did you call me?"

Shen Yaoyao pouted, that question sounding as if she shouldn’t be calling him.

"How come, only my sister can call you, and I can’t? Or are you waiting for a call from my sister?" Shen Yaoyao asked with a slightly sour tone.

But Chu Ge was in no mood to decipher her words, just shook his head and said, "It’s not like that, you rarely call me on your own. If you called today, there must be something. So tell me, what’s up?"

Shen Yaoyao had just walked out of the airport, dragging her luggage, looking at the familiar yet strange city feeling very complicated.

She stood at the airport entrance, her petite figure dragging a large suitcase, appearing especially lonely amid the bustling crowd.

"I’m at the airport now, come pick me up."

She commanded.

Chu Ge hadn’t yet realized where she was, somewhat speechlessly said, "I’m out of city, how can I come to pick you up?"

Shen Yaoyao pursed her lips, indignantly enlarging her eyes, "I obviously know you’re out of town, I’m not stupid, I mean I’m at the Su City airport! Come pick me up!"

Chu Ge suddenly sat up, glanced out the window where the weather had returned to normal, clear and cloudless, "What are you doing in Su City?"

Shen Yaoyao hesitated for a moment, reluctant to say why she was in Su City, only spoke with a bit of a low tone, "Are you coming to pick me up or not?"

Chu Ge got out of bed, grabbing his coat to wear, while speaking to Shen Yaoyao, "Stay right there, don’t move, I’ll be right there."

Chu Ge pocketed his mobile phone and went downstairs, just as he bumped into two figures coming out of the main building, took a momentary pause, his gaze unintentionally glanced at Tang Xin.

Tang Xin and Nangong Man Sha, chattering and laughing as they came out from the building, also noticed Chu Ge.

At first, Tang Xin felt a bit embarrassed, but then remembered what Nangong Man Sha had told her, and also thinking that liking someone was free from any wrong, she only expressed her feelings in another manner.

Thinking so, Tang Xin who initially wanted to turn and flee, suddenly steadied herself, looked boldly at Chu Ge, smiling slightly, taking the initiative to speak, "Mr. Chu, are you heading out?"

Chu Ge hummed affirmatively, noting no sign of affection from Tang Xin, firmly believing Nangong Man Sha must have been mistaken.

"I have a friend who has come to Su City, I need to go pick her up at the airport."

"Our Tang Family considers Mr. Chu’s friends as esteemed guests. How about I arrange a driver to take you?"

Tang Xin suggested.

But nearby, Nangong Man Sha’s bright eyes sparkled ambiguously, and after a moment, she said to Tang Xin, "Why bother sending a driver? Let’s personally take Mr. Chu ourselves?"
