Chapter 236: Ye Chen's Secret

Ye Chen remained silent with his head lowered.

Meng Yan questioned, "Isn't that right, Ye Chen, you can't keep your composure when you're with Ling'er."

Ye Chen pretended that he didn't hear her clearly.

Smelling the fish, Ling'er felt her stomach rumble and picked one to eat.

"Aren't you afraid I might poison you?" Ye Chen asked.

"I'm immune to all poisons," retorted Ling'er.

"Heh, being invulnerable to all toxins is quite an achievement."

"I'll go over to the Sky Lake Manor across and bring back some tea for us," suggested Meng Yan.

"They won't recognize you over there," Ling'er replied.

"It's okay, I'll explain myself. I can handle it." With that, she stood up and headed towards the opposite courtyard.

Ye Chen gave a faint smile, seemingly guessing something.

"What are you smiling about?" Ling'er asked.

"You must be bored to be worrying about me getting lost," Ye Chen quipped.

"Heh, don't flatter yourself."
