Chapter 123: The Storm is Coming! Take Action!

The sky was getting dark.

Chen Zhixing walked step by step towards his quarters in the Miscellaneous Affairs Department.

Along the way, the servants who had completed their labor lined up on both sides upon seeing Chen Zhixing's arrival, whispering softly among themselves.

Some wanted to ingratiate themselves with a few words, but unsure of Chen Zhixing's temperament, they held back.

As Chen Zhixing headed towards the quarters, he heard a discussion coming from inside.

"I didn't expect Xiao Ping, who looks so honest and unambitious, to have such good luck to catch the Saintess's favor."

"Isn't this like a sparrow turning into a phoenix?"

"Tsk, Old Huang, you say you are close to him, but now that he's successful, does he even look at you?"

Immediately, Old Huang's voice sounded: "I befriended Xiao Ping not for any selfish reasons. Now that he's successful, I'm genuinely happy for him."
