"Dammit, that guy actually dared to deceive me? And the worst part is, I didn't even see it coming?!" Wu Pianpian was fuming.
Yun Wangshu could only offer a bitter smile. She hadn't noticed either.
"You... you..."
Inside the trial grounds, Lin Yatian was also reeling from shock. He glanced around frantically and pleaded with Ning Xuan in a low voice, "Please, don't say any more. I'll pay, alright? I'll pay!"
Ning Xuan paused, a look of dawning comprehension on his face. "You weren't sent by Wu Pianpian... Lin Yatian... Wait. Chu Tian. That's your real name, isn't it? You're from the Chu Family?"
Lin Yatian—or rather, Chu Tian—stared at Ning Xuan, completely numb.
Outside, Wu Pianpian was nearly driven mad. She saw that guy dressed like a cowherd and actually believed his lies! What a complete fool I am! He's from the Chu Family. Does he look like he needs my measly Heavenly Crystals?!
