Chapter 115: 115: Just waiting for the lady to come and put out the fire.

Yuan Jianlan blurted it out, speaking without restraint in her excitement. What was originally a private whisper was now spoken out loud and boldly.

"Don’t talk nonsense..."

Geng Yifan was embarrassed, and a blush appeared on his cheeks.

He did like Gu Tong, but it was more of an admiration...

Not the kind of affection she mentioned...

"Haha, you’re blushing. Liking someone is nothing to be embarrassed about. I think Gu Tong suits you well; maybe she likes you too."

The more Yuan Jianlan thought about it, the more sense it made. She even considered playing matchmaker, saying, "Why don’t I help you talk to her? Maybe you two could actually work out. What do you think?"

Yuan Jianlan’s barrage of words left Geng Yifan utterly baffled.

He wanted to explain but couldn’t get a word out of his chest.

Yet, this hesitation was enough to let others’ imaginations run wild.

If he really didn’t have those feelings, why not take this opportunity to clarify it? Instead, he let others speculate. You know, rumors always tend to escalate.

"Earl Li, look, Brother Geng is blushing, hahaha..." Yuan Jianlan smiled brightly, turning to look at Li Yan.

However, in that instant of turning, Yuan Jianlan’s smile froze on her face.

Li Yan’s eyes were cold, filled with a chill like ice frozen for a thousand years. He exuded a natural aura that made people dare not approach. Yet, even so, the room temperature dropped several degrees!

Someone close by could clearly sense their Earl’s killing intent.

He was afraid his Earl might lose control! Like a raging lion ready to pounce...

This was the legendary sudden storm...

It was like he could change expressions without warning, leaving no room to breathe.

Yuan Jianlan broke into a sweat, a bit scared, and said, "Did I say something wrong...?"

"No!"

Li Yan’s dark gaze fixed on Geng Yifan, scanning him up and down, with an evaluative look.

After pondering for a long moment, he said, "All the trainees in the first class are focused wholeheartedly on improving their combat skills! Everyone neglects their personal relationships! You, on the other hand, are talented, targeting your goals since the New Student Camp!"

The words seemed fine, but something about them felt off.

The nearby assistant felt a sense of dread, his hair standing on end as a sense of foreboding grew.

"Uh... Earl Li, don’t listen to her nonsense, it was just a joke..."

Geng Yifan felt awkward. It was something that didn’t exist, yet Yuan Jianlan made a joke out of it. If it caused a misunderstanding later, it wouldn’t be good.

"A joke?"

Li Yan’s lips curled into a cold smile, his magnetic voice tinged with restraint, "If it’s a joke, just stop making it!"

The health check group was completely dumbfounded, not knowing what had angered the Earl to cause such a sudden change in atmosphere, leaving it almost full of danger.

"The Earl is right..." Yuan Jianlan didn’t dare to be presumptuous anymore, saying, "Um... let’s head back..."

Clearly, she intended to make a quick exit.

As expected, the veterans hadn’t lied to her. The Devil King’s moods were unpredictable and terrifying. If she stayed any longer, her courage might eventually be shattered.

"I’ll see you out..." The assistant also couldn’t wait to escape this dangerous place.

When the Earl is angry, the entire first class suffers, and as the deputy, he would also have to suffer along.

Now, they could only wait for the lady to come and extinguish the fire...
