"What happened, even if I come, it's useless?" Liu Quan appeared just in time.
"Sect Leader!" Changgui took advantage of Shen Yao's momentary daze to break free from her grasp, and charged towards Chen Muxue like a runaway wild dog—no, wild horse.
Shen Yao looked displeased but still awkwardly greeted Liu Quan.
Then, the old man slowly caught up.
"Master Shen's coming to see his daughter again?" Liu Quan cheerfully smiled at the old man.
"Kids will be kids, Sect Leader, no need to intervene. Let them play," Master Shen said to smooth things over.
Liu Quan looked at Chen Muxue.
Having just learned the whole story from Changgui, Chen Muxue was speechless. She never expected Changgui to still be a mischievous brat. Shen Yao's father was quite broad-minded; if it were her, she'd surely have spanked Changgui!
Seeing the situation turn favorable, Chen Muxue easily played along: "Haha, yes indeed, kids just love to play, right!"
