Chapter: 5769

As Lin Wan'er saw Wu Feiyan's figure, she hadn't taken a good look yet, but her heart had already skipped a beat. She knew that the woman in the distance was none other than Wu Feiyan, whom she had been hiding from for over 300 years.

In this instant, Lin Wan'er's heartbeat became somewhat irregular, with emotions of anger and tension intertwined, making her palms sweat.

Lei Chen noticed her face turning pale and her body tensing up. He quickly wrapped his arms around her, his voice low and concerned: "I've told you not to stay up late, but you just won't listen. You must have had a lot to drink and are probably feeling pretty miserable by now, aren't you?"

Lin Wan'er knew that Lei Chen had noticed something was off with her, and he was deliberately distracting Wu Feiyan. She felt grateful in her heart while also being nervous and flustered because she was being hugged by him.

She forced herself to adjust her state and whispered: "I'm not staying up late just to watch the sunrise with you... We've never watched the sunrise together since we've been together."

Lei Chen saw that she had calmed down, and his heart also relaxed. He glanced at Wu Feiyan's possible location out of the corner of his eye before deliberately looking away, speaking in a low voice to Lin Wan'er: "Look, baby, someone is already climbing Turtle Back Mountain so early?"

Lin Wan'er feigned curiosity and looked around for two seconds before saying: "And it looks like she's all alone... Is she crazy enough to climb both mountains just to watch the sunrise? That would be leaving at dawn!"

Lei Chen spoke offhandedly: "Who knows, maybe she's like us, finding a place to stay overnight halfway up."

As he spoke, Lei Chen added: "But it's still a bit strange... Turtle Back Mountain isn't the highest nearby. Why would someone go through so much trouble to watch the sunrise here? And even stranger is that she's all alone..."

Lei Chen and Lin Wan'er's conversation was being listened to with utmost clarity by Wu Feiyan.

Lei Chen's conversation didn't raise any suspicions in her, instead, he deliberately showed suspicion and immediately turned the situation around, making Wu Feiyan realize that she was all alone at this hour, which seemed quite unreasonable to others.

At this moment, Wu Feiyan's mind had changed from trying to detect anomalies to trying to conceal her own anomalies.

So, she suddenly hesitated, thinking to herself: "If I were to go pay respects at my teacher's grave right now, would anyone suspect something unusual about me?"

Lei Chen put up Meng Changsheng's portrait in Jinling, which indeed gave Wu Feiyan a huge shock, making her this time in Huaxia the most worried thing is exposing her identity.

Those young people camping nearby seemed to be students still studying, and she had no concern that any of them could threaten her safety. But she had already heard Lei Chen's conversation with Lin Wan'er, knowing that her actions were already suspicious to others. In this situation, she was really hesitant about what to do.

Her attention was also indeed led by Lei Chen without realizing it to another direction, and now she was only worried about being suspected by others, but she had never suspected the identities of those young people.

Just as Wu Feiyan was hesitating, a golden glow spread out below, and the sun had already risen from the east.

The young people who were still high-spirited after staying up all night at Lei Chen's side immediately got excited when they saw this glow, shouting loudly that the sun has come out while quickly taking out their phones to take photos and record videos.

Wu Feiyan saw that no one was paying attention to herself, so she walked towards the campsite's rear forest.

At this moment, Wu Feiyan was about 70 meters away from Lei Chen and Lin Wan'er.

However, her attention was completely focused on something else, and since she was in a state of quiet contemplation, she didn't release any spiritual energy to probe others, so she had no sense of anything unusual.

Lei Chen was carefully examining Wu Feiyan with the residual light.

This woman looked like she was in her thirties, mature and extremely charming, with a perfect blend of beauty and aura that was unmatched.

Her hands held some yellow paper and an empty wine jar; the yellow paper looked very coarse and might be very difficult to obtain now.

Lei Chen could see that Wu Feiyan was carrying the yellow paper and wine jar for the purpose of sacrificing to Lin Zhichu, and it meant that she had come to pay respects to him. This showed that in Wu Feiyan's heart, her feelings towards Lin Zhichu were not just hatred. JrNovels.com
