Chapter 51 Torture
"Hoo——"
Lu Zijin, who had just taken a shower, was wrapped in a fluffy bath towel, letting water droplets drip from his short wet hair, causing a small water stain on his shoulders.
Today was the first day of military training, and the scorching sun seemed to be roasting her. Standing in a military posture and walking forward, every movement exhausted all her strength.
"Dong dong dong——"
A rapid knock on the door interrupted Lu Zijin's action of wiping his hair.
"Who is it?" She walked to the door and looked through the peephole, it was Ye Yiling.
"Sister Yi Ling, it's you, come in." Lu Zijin opened the door suspiciously. Ye Yi Ling was usually very lively, but today she looked particularly excited. Her big eyes were bright, as if she was hiding some secret.
"Zijin, are you okay?" Ye Yiling looked Lu Zijin up and down as soon as she entered the door, as if checking if there were any missing parts on her body, "I heard that you encountered bullying on campus today, but fortunately there was a hero to save the beauty. , are you injured?”
"Huh?" Lu Zijin was confused, "Sister Yi Ling, who did you listen to? Why didn't I know that I was being bullied on campus?"
"Oh, don't hide it from me. Now it's spread all over the school forum!" Ye Yiling said, took out his mobile phone, opened the school forum, and handed it to Lu Zijin.
"No!"
On the most conspicuous place on the home page of the forum, there was a post with the title "Surprise! On the first day of military training, a hero appeared to save a beauty. Is he acting bravely or...".
The content of the post vividly described how during military training this afternoon, Lu Zijin was made things difficult by a senior school bully, and then was rescued by a tall and handsome boy.
Someone even took a few blurry photos. Although the faces could not be seen clearly, they could be vaguely identified as Lu Zijin and Lin Ye from their body shapes and clothing.
"What the hell is this?" Lu Zijin didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"Zijin, stop pretending and tell me what's going on?" Ye Yiling's gossip soul burned brightly. "Is it really like what the forum said, that there was a hero who saved the beauty?"
Lu Zijin couldn't resist Ye Yiling's enthusiasm, so she had to briefly describe what happened this afternoon. Of course, she deliberately concealed Lin Ye's name and automatically ignored the part where she said he was her boyfriend.
"Oh~" Ye Yiling protracted the ending meaningfully, her eyes rolling, "So, it's really a hero saving the beauty? Then did you thank them properly?"
"Thank you," Lu Zijin replied vaguely.
"Hey, I heard." Ye Yiling suddenly lowered her voice, leaned into Lu Zijin's ear, and said mysteriously, "The boy who saved you this afternoon, is your boyfriend?"
"Pfft——"
Lu Zijin almost choked on his own saliva, his cheeks instantly turned red, and he was speechless.
Seeing Lu Zijin's reaction, Ye Yiling smiled even more ambiguously, "I remember hearing that that person's name was Lin Ye?"
"It can't be such a coincidence, right?"
Hearing her words, Lu Zijin wanted to find a crack in the floor and crawl in. He was so embarrassed that his toes almost dug out of the three rooms and one living room.
"Oh, Zijin, you still want to hide it from me?" Ye Yiling looked at Lu Zijin with a smile, "Why didn't you say you didn't know Lin Ye when I mentioned him last time?"
Lu Zijin felt uncomfortable looking at Ye Yiling's inquiring eyes. She took a deep breath and decided to be lenient in confessing, "Sister Yiling, actually, this is what happened."
She told Ye Yiling exactly what happened when she awakened as the King of Time and exchanged the power of the Imperial Cavalry with Lin Ye. These are no secrets at all. During this year's awakening ceremony, someone in Tianhuo City replaced the weakest King of Time with the strongest Imperial Cavalry. This has already become news all over the country.
Now that Lu Zijin has the Imperial Cavalry Driver, it can be said that others know what is going on without any additional explanation from her.
Then, Lu Zijin briefly talked about her and Lin Ye playing the novice copy together and today's military training.
"Wow, that sounds so cool!" Ye Yiling put her hands on her chin with a look of longing, "Kill the boss of the novice copy in three moves, and beat Rainbow Gochard without changing your body, it's exciting just thinking about it!"
< br>
"Zijin, you are so lucky to meet Lin Ye."
"It's not as exaggerated as you said." Although Lu Zijin said it, he couldn't help but feel a hint of sweetness in his heart.
"By the way, Zijin, tell me honestly," Ye Yiling suddenly approached Lu Zijin and asked seriously, "Do you like Lin Ye?"
"Huh?" Lu Zijin was caught off guard by Ye Yiling's sudden question. His heart skipped a beat and his cheeks instantly became hot.
"Oh, stop pretending. Look at you, your face is so red!" Ye Yiling pointed at Lu Zijin's red cheeks and smiled ambiguously.
Lu Zijin was so embarrassed that she wanted to find a crack in the ground to crawl in when Ye Yiling told her the central issue. She hesitated and couldn't speak, so she could only let Ye Yiling tease her.
In fact, if you think about it carefully, she may not have been so concerned about Lin Ye because of the exchange of knight power two months ago.
No matter where he appears, this man seems to be the focus of the crowd, always attracting everyone's attention.
People have to take the initiative to approach him and follow him.
This is the reason why Lu Zijin is like this.
"I knew it!" Ye Yiling slapped her thigh, "Although Lin Ye looks cold and indifferent, he is so strong and handsome. Which girl can resist his charm?"
"Sister Yi Ling, you" Lu Zijin didn't know whether to laugh or cry.
"Okay, okay, I won't tease you anymore." Ye Yiling smiled and patted Lu Zijin on the shoulder, "You could have said it earlier if you liked him. Sister, can I still steal your boyfriend from you?"
"Sister Yi Ling!" Lu Zijin glared at Ye Yiling with a sweet look in his heart.
The two chatted for a while, and Ye Yiling suddenly seemed to have thought of something, and asked doubtfully: "Zijin, have you ever thought about it, the Emperor Cavalry is an SSS level knight, and the King of Time is a low-class knight, Lin Did Ye really switch with you voluntarily?”
Lu Zijin was stunned for a moment. She had also thought about this issue, but Lin Ye never showed any dissatisfaction, and he was able to use the power of the King of Time with ease, so she did not delve into it further.
"I don't know why." Lu Zijin shook his head, "But Lin Ye seems to be quite suitable for King Shi."
Pretty suitable for King of Time?
Ye Yiling nodded thoughtfully and said nothing more.
"Sister Yi Ling, what's wrong with you?" Lu Zijin noticed something strange about Ye Yiling and asked suspiciously.
"It's nothing." Ye Yiling shook his head and said with a smile, "It's been a day of military training. You must be exhausted. Go to bed early. I'll leave first."
"Yeah, okay." Lu Zijin nodded and watched Ye Yiling leave.
