Reborn to love Lord Qiansui Chapter 117 part 1

Chapter 117 The fire beacons rose again (1)

Chen Jing didn’t like the person in front of him who looked very cold. He is obviously Lin Qing’s favored subordinate and they even have that kind of relationship, but why does he still hold up Ling Er?

To put it bluntly, he is a hypocrite who only pretends.

After seeing Zhao Zimu come in, Chen Jin let her sit down. He let her come this time because he had officials matters to speak with her.

Chen Jin looked at Zhao Zimu and said, “I believe that you also know that the Xiongnu will attack our Great Liang soon. The soldiers of our Great Liang ought to fight on the battlefield and protect the territory of our country. Zhao Zhong, you are talented and is quick-witted in combats. Last time, you let the Xiongnu suffer a loss. This old man believes that Qiansui’s subordinate will certainly not disappoint this old man. This old man hopes that you will work hard for Great Liang. When the day they of victory arrives, this old man will definitely ask His Majesty to give you great credit!”

Chen Jin said that while observing Zhao Zimu’s expression. Something flashed quickly in Zhao Zimu’s gaze and then her gaze quickly returned to calmness. The dark eyes made people unable to see a trace of emotion.

Chen Jin was a bit disappointed and a bit happy. He was disappointed that he couldn’t see anything peculiar from this young man who was dull as water but easy with the sword.

To be honest, Chen Jin was very curious about the young man in front of him. It wasn’t that he didn’t know what he (ZZ) did in secret. He also deliberately didn’t restrain him (ZZ). The more he got to know, the more shocked he was and he couldn’t understand what this young man was thinking.

For fame? He was low profile and never acted flamboyantly. For benefit? But he had never asked credit for himself. Then, what did he want?

It would be fine if he just couldn’t see through him (ZZ). What was even more troubling was that his identity was also daunting. Such a talented person who appears to be a bit secretive, even if Chen Jin wanted to teach him, he felt that it was a hot potato.

Hence, he had to do some probing.

Zhao Zimu bowed respectfully to Chen Jin. Even a rough curtsy of a martial artists, the curtsy appeared elegant when done by her, making people dazzled.

Chen Jin nodded secretly.

Zhao Zimu said, “Since sir gave the order and it is for the safety of the country, how can I not obey? This soldier will surely not disgrace the mission.”

Chen Jin smiled and patted him on the shoulder, “Sure enough, you are Qiansui’s subordinate. I believe that you will certainly not disappoint me.”

Chen Jin invited her over not only to say these words, but in the end, he took some words back because no matter what, Zhao Zhong was still his subordinate. Even though he was concerned about his identity, he still didn’t say somethings. No matter who, since he became his subordinate, then, he must obey his orders.

Zhao Zimu and Chen Jing were also confused. Chen Jin wouldn’t have invited Zhao Zimu over just to encourage her, right? Zhao Zimu felt that her face was not so big yet, but since Chen Jin didn’t say anything, she also didn’t probe further.

Zhao Zimu left not long after. Chen Jing bid Chen Jin goodbye and went out of the tent after seeing her gone. However, unexpectedly, he saw the person who had already left, was waiting for him.

Zhao Zimu looked once at him. The two of them understood tacitly and silently walked to a place where there was no one.

After finding a secluded place, Zhao Zimu spoke first, “Young general Chen, we haven’t seen each other for a long time, right? I heard that you came back a long time ago. Why didn’t I ever see you come out to socialize?”

“Zhao Zhong, our relationship is not so good yet, right? When had it become your turn to concern yourself with my affairs?” Chen Jing said disdainfully. At the same time, he felt a bit surprised. When did this guy become so interested in his affairs?

To be honest, if it wasn’t for the one in her family, would Zhao Zimu need to waste saliva on him?

Rubbing the place between her eyebrows, Zhao Zimu said, “Young general Chen, I heard that you have a good relationship with my little sister. Since you have returned, why don’t you visit her?”

Chen Jing looked at her strangely and said, “You let me go visit her?” After a pause, Chen Jing continued, “Then, first tell me what is your relationship with her? Zhao Zhong, Ling Er is so good to you. Don’t use that she is your little sister to get over this matter.”

Chen Jing admits that he was a bit interested in Ling Er and he always thought about her. However, the one she liked was the guy in front of him. For him, she didn’t care about putting herself in danger. What reason does he (CJ) still have to be with her?

So after Chen Jing came back, he deliberately hid from Ling Er and didn’t meet up with her. But what was going on now?

Chen Jing felt that it was a bit impervious to reason. His rival in love came to look for him and questioned him why he didn’t go visit his (ZZ) lover. Chen Jing felt that this was a fantasy.

Seeing Chen Jing look at her like he was looking at a lunatic, Zhao Zimu couldn’t help but feel anger emerge in her heart. She said coldly to him, “I believe that you have also heard how Ling Er calls me.”

Taking a look at Chen Jing who nodded hesitantly, Zhao Zimu continued, “I treat her as my own little sister. She has no parents ever since she was a child. I am her real brother. I also can see that there is something between you two, but if you are not interested, then, tell her truthfully to let her give up. There are many people who wants my little sister. She won’t lack you.”
