Upon seeing Lei Zhen offering a handshake, Cecile nodded her head and extended her smooth hand.

Shaking their hand though, Cecile smiled slightly, "I've heard that you are a good friend of my guild leader, Shan Lin, right?"

Lei Zhen's emotion wavered for a few seconds, but he quickly suppressed it and returned a gentle smile.

"I'm sure Shan Lin must have talked a lot about me to you." He replied, retracting his hand and sitting back down.

Nobody in the room felt anything unusual coming from Lei Zhen as he acted extremely naturally at the question.

Of course, Cecile doesn't know about their fallout either since Shan Lin wouldn't be announcing everywhere that he might have just lost his best friend.

Once everyone took their respective seats, Cecile looked at Lei Zhen curiously.

Meanwhile, Liu Lingxin was annoyed by her since she came in without an invitation.
