No! It’s a Friend

"Hahahaha…" The man laughed heartily and looked at the incoming Lumi as his eyes sparkled and said "Oh my beautiful miss. Did you fall from the heavens? Why don't I take you back?" looking at the man's antics Lumi just laughed awkwardly and her eyes turned towards Lin.

Lin noticed Lumi's gaze as he simply nodded which made her relax a little as she went towards Lin and stood behind him. The man looked at them as he said "looks like you two are a couple aren't you?" which made Lumi's cheeks flush a little but Lin couldn't see it as she was standing behind him.

"Well, look at my manners I should've introduce myself before attacking you anyways I am Hei Li the 3rd young master of the Hei family" said the man as he forwarded his hand for the handshake which Lin took as both of them handshaked as Lin said "I am Lin Ji an independent and this is Lumi Su my companion and also a independent" and showed Lumi while introducing her.

"If the introduction is over I would want the answers why did you attack us? We neither have met nor do we know about each other" Lin said with a keen gaze like a person who could read them like a open book just by looking at them which made Hei to gulp down the saliva. But, a second later he returned back to his original state as he asked with curiosity lurking in his eyes "Why do you think we haven't met?"

Lin replied "I just know" which made Hei to laugh loudly as he tried to place his hand on Lin's shoulder but he turned slightly which made Hei miss as Hei said "Just the person who I am interested in. I attacked you to gaze at your ability and skill". Lin's eyes became colder as he said "Why do you want to gaze the skills of a person who you have just met".

"Well well well I just wanted to"said Hei as Lin's gaze became even more cold. Hei laughed and said "I was just joking no need to be so cold. I checked your skill because you were going to the Devil's lair weren't you?"

"And how do you know that?" asked Lin as his gaze had a hint of suspicion. "Oh you don't need to be suspicious. The Devils lair is opening and everyone in the world knows it and whoever comes is here to find and claim the treasure. Looking at you you are no older than 30 which meets the requirements to enter the Devil's lair. Isn't that the case?" said Hei as Lin nodded to his statement and Hei continued "You are quite powerful so what do you think should we form an alliance" and forwarded his hands.

While looking at the forwarded hand Lin contemplated for a few minutes and he took the hand as they both handshaked. Suddenly Hei pull Lin as he put a hand around his shoulder and pointed at the sky as he said "from today you and I are friends".
