Chu Yunfan was not stupid. Although he had never experienced a kiss before, looking at Bai Ling’er’s appearance, how could he not understand what that warm feeling was?
However, at this time, he could not admit it even if he was beaten to death. Otherwise, the initiative would fall into Bai Ling’er’s hands.
Bai Ling’er was angered to death by Chu Yunfan’s words. Her small breasts that had just started to develop were rising and falling in anger. But in the end, she had gone up to him of her own accord.
Her first kiss was so muddled and inexplicably gone. Although she was only fourteen years old, she already had the expectations of a young girl.
“That can’t be your first kiss, right?” Chu Yunfan said.
“Ha, of course, it isn’t!” Bai Ling’er’s face was red, but she did not want to admit that it was her first kiss.
It would be too embarrassing.
“Then, it’s over. It’s not my first kiss. A cool man like me has already kissed hundreds of times. Since it’s neither of our first kisses, then there’s no need to bother!” Chu Yunfan did not know why, but after seeing Bai Ling’er’s flushed face, he felt like teasing her.
“You!”
Bai Ling’er pointed at Chu Yunfan, her fair fingers trembling slightly.
“What do you mean? Don’t worry, I don’t like small melons.” Chu Yunfan said.
Bai Ling‘er became even angrier. She felt that since she met Chu Yunfan, nothing good had happened. Her elder’s book had been randomly criticized by him, and her genius debut at the alchemy trainee examination had been stolen by him.
Everyone paid attention to first place. Who would care who the second place was?
Now the third time they’re meeting, he took her first kiss!
No, that’s not a first kiss. It was just an accidental touch of the lips. Thinking of this, Bai Ling’er suddenly felt much better. If this could be considered a first kiss, then would her first kiss not have already been given to her parents when she was still an infant.
Chu Yunfan stopped after saying a few words. If he continued, Bai Ling’er might really go crazy.
“Why are you here?”
Bai Ling’er calmed herself down and said, “Why can’t I be here?”
Chu Yunfan was about to say something when a thought went off in his head. He suddenly thought of something and said, “Oh right, I didn’t ask you last time. Who is the great alchemist Bai Hong to you?”
Bai Ling’er’s attention was successfully diverted by Chu Yunfan. She said, “Oh, you finally recognized him?”
‘When she thought of Chu Yunfan acting like he did not know who Bai Hong was the last time, she could not help but gnash her teeth in anger.
Forget about the common folk, but there was actually someone among alchemists who did not know their own forebears? That was a small group of top-notch people among alchemists who were second only to Alchemy Kings. Not to mention alchemists, even those who had even the slightest interest in
alchemy should know them.
“Didn’t I get lectured by you because of this last time? So when I went back, I went to investigate. Turns out that he’s a great alchemist.” Chu Yunfan said. When he spoke of great alchemists, he did not have the reverence of an ordinary person. There was only a very indifferent expression.
Compared to such a powerful and peerless genius alchemy emperor, Bai Hong seemed pretty ordinary. The alchemy emperor was the first and only person in the history of alchemy to be conferred the title of emperor.
Hearing Chu Yunfan say it so casually, Bai Ling‘er could not help but curse in her heart. ‘Trying to play it cool? My elder is an alchemy expert, all right? He isn’t some kitten or dog, You sound as if you’re talking about a passerby.’
From her point of view, Chu Yunfan was clearly angering her on purpose. He was definitely doing it on purpose.
“Hmph!” Bai Ling’er snorted.
“So, what’s the relationship between you and Bai Hong?” Chu Yunfan asked again.
“He’s an elder of my family!” Bai Ling‘er said.
In fact, Bai Ling’er was Bai Hong’s great-granddaughter. That was why she had always called him an elder. She had stayed by Bai Hong’s side and learned the art of alchemy since she was young.
‘The life expectancy of modern people was generally much longer than back in the Common Era, especially those of martial arts masters. With such long life expectancies, several generations living together was a very common situation.
“So you two are related. Great. Take me to meet your elder. I have some business to discuss with him!” Chu Yunfan clapped his hands and said.
“You want to talk business with my elder?” Bai Ling’er said as she looked suspiciously at Chu Yunfan. What business would Chu Yunfan have with her elder?
Her elder was a distinguished guest of even the military bigwigs and important figures in the political and business circles. Even the bosses of ordinary small companies could not meet her elder.
“What business could you possibly have with my elder? Don’t indulge in such wishful thinking, My elder won’t meet with you!” Bai Ling’er gnashed her teeth as she looked at Chu Yunfan. She thought that this was the perfect time to take revenge on this detestable fellow.
Chu Yunfan was not anxious at all. He smiled slightly and said, “You haven’t forgotten about the alchemy reaction formula from last time, have you? Didn’t you show it to him?”
Bai Ling’er’s expression changed when he brought up the alchemy reaction formula. She was already different from a few months ago. Over the last few months, she had crammed knowledge about the alchemy reaction formula into her head, so she naturally understood its function.
Her elder had also been deducing the alchemy reaction formula. In her elder’s words, as long as one could deduce it, the level of the alchemy of mankind would rise to a higher level.
At present, a small group of leading figures in the alchemy field, including the Pill Kings, were trying to deduce the reaction formula. Every step forward took them several years—maybe even more than ten years.
Although the reaction formula that Chu Yunfan wrote to her last time did not have the most crucial part, her elder had said that this had already saved him at least twenty years.
“Do you have the other parts of the alchemy reaction formula?” Bai Ling’er hurriedly asked.
“Looks like you’ve done your homework and aren’t as ignorant as last time.” Chu Yunfan saw her reaction and knew that she must have studied the reaction formula. “Will you even understand me if I tell you these things? I’ll tell it to your elder. I can tell you that this matter is very beneficial to him. If you
miss it, you’ll regret it!”
Bai Ling’er looked at Chu Yunfan suspiciously. She had always felt like Chu Yunfan was deceiving her. However, the last time, Chu Yunfan could easily write out a part of the correct alchemy reaction formula, saving her elder at least twenty years of time. This made his words sound somewhat credible.
She immediately made a decision. In any case, her elder had wanted to meet Chu Yunfan, so she might as well bring him to her elder. There was no need for her to care about what happened after that.
“Fine, I’l bring you to him!”
