Extreme Chaos

Chapter 858 Zilin with low self-esteem

"Young Master Chen."

Gently kneading her temples, Zi Lin gave Mu Chen a slightly exhausted look, and forced a smile.

Seeing Zilin like this, Mu Chen frowned, and quickly asked, "Senior Zilin, what's wrong with you? You seem to be exhausted."

Zilin shook her head slightly, and replied, "It's nothing, it's just that refining the elixir causes excessive consumption of mental power, and it will recover after a short rest."

The mad wolf who had stopped in front of Mu Chen also took a deep breath, and said in disbelief, "What kind of elixir is this refining, I have never seen you consume so much before."

Zilin smiled, "It's a special medicine for Young Master Chen to recover from the depletion of his energy."

Mu Chen was taken aback, and asked strangely, "Specially made?"

Zilin hummed, and pushed the door open a little, but she leaned against the door and said to Mu Chen, "Young Master Chen, come in first."

Mu Chen responded, nodded to the mad wolf, and walked in.As soon as he entered, Mu Chen once again smelled the fragrance that made his dantian work.

Zilin, on the other hand, turned around with difficulty, and wanted to take a step forward, but found that her movements were completely out of her consciousness, and the height of her raised steps was not enough, her toes suddenly scraped the ground, and her whole body suddenly moved forward. pour.

Mu Chen, who was in front of him, suddenly noticed a whisper behind him, and when he turned his head, he happened to see Zi Lin's panicked face and toppled figure.Without any hesitation, Mu Chen directly stretched out his hands, and naturally supported Zi Lin's body firmly.

However, because the distance between the two was too close, the moment Mu Chen turned around, Zi Lin's cheeks and chest had already fallen into Mu Chen's arms.Feeling Mu Chen's steady and reliable chest, Zi Lin's pale cheeks turned red in an instant, as if her heart, which had long been ignorant of warmth, was burning with it.

And this scene happened to be watched by the mad wolf standing outside the door. The mad wolf was stunned for a moment, then smiled at Mu Chen, and took the opened door behind him at the right time.This action immediately made the corners of Mu Chen's mouth twitch wildly. He always felt that the way Dire Wolf looked at him when the door was closed was a bit wretched.

But this is not the point, the point is that Zi Lin's body is so weak that she even has a big problem with walking!This is definitely not the result of mental overdraft.

Thinking of this, Mu Chen stretched out his hand and grabbed Zi Lin's wrist, and a ray of mental power submerged into Zi Lin's body in an instant. In an instant, Mu Chen discovered something that shocked him.

Opening his mouth, Mu Chen frowned and asked, "Senior Zilin, where is your Yuanli?"

Zilin was leaning against Mu Chen's arms at this time, and Mu Chen was grabbing her wrist again. The feeling of powerlessness all over her body quickly turned into a sense of dependence, which almost made her fall asleep.

But just when she was about to fall asleep, she heard Mu Chen's slightly reproachful question, and Zi Lin panicked for a moment, and said incoherently, "Yuanli? Um... yes, where is my Yuanli?"

Mu Chen sighed softly, couldn't help Zilin finish her sentence, grabbed Zilin's right arm by the wrist, walked around Zilin's body, directly hooked Zilin's leg, and hugged her with a little force.

Zilin was thinking about the reason when she suddenly realized that she had completely lost her center of gravity, and she exclaimed, but when she moved her gaze upwards, she found that Mu Chen's cheeks became very close to her at some point, and the expression on her face instantly changed. Freezing, his mind also forgot to think, and let Mu Chen hug him and slowly move to his bed.

It wasn't until Mu Chen gently placed her on the bed and helped her cover the quilt that Zi Lin woke up from the daze.Seeing Mu Chen's icy blue eyes staring at her angrily, Zi Lin subconsciously pulled the quilt upwards with both hands, completely covering her cheeks, revealing only the pair of bewildered pupils He turned aside, not daring to look at Mu Chen.

Seeing Zilin's appearance, Mu Chen actually wanted to laugh in his heart. After all, Zilin's current behavior is basically the appearance of a little girl when she makes a mistake. She doesn't have the attitude that an old senior should have.But Mu Chen would not let Zi Lin go because of this, and continued to ask solemnly, "Dear Zi Lin senior, please tell me, where is your Yuanli?"

Hearing Zilin's questioning again, Zilin really panicked, a feeling that she had never felt before.She didn't understand what it was like to be blamed and questioned, but she seemed to be afraid of the other party's anger. She just felt very uncomfortable for a moment, so uncomfortable that she wanted to cry.

Looking at Zilin, Mu Chen suddenly noticed that the circles of Zilin's eyes were turning red, and there was gradually a fog brewing inside. He was shocked and waved his hands again and again, "Uh...Senior Zilin, what are you doing? Why are you crying?" gone?"

Unexpectedly, as soon as Mu Chen said this, Zi Lin sniffled her nose, glared at Mu Chen and said angrily, "Who do you think is crying?"

Not to mention, Zi Lin stared at Mu Chen directly.The corner of Mu Chen's mouth twitched, and he said with embarrassment, "No... I didn't cry, I read it wrong."

Seeing Mu Chen's embarrassing expression, Zi Lin broke into a smile and said unhappily, "It's not too bad."

"..."

While talking, Zilin exhaled softly, and said to Mu Chen, "Don't call me senior or you in the future, I'm not afraid of you laughing...Actually, apart from my age, I don't have much emotional experience. I know what family affection is, but I don’t know what love is, and I don’t know what friendship is. So...in terms of expressive ability, I’m afraid I’m not as good as a 20-year-old girl.”

Mu Chen was slightly taken aback, the embarrassment on his face gradually dissipated, replaced by a look of memory.He remembered that Zilin had told her about her past.When I looked at Zilin again, I found that Zilin actually showed an expression that was completely inconsistent with her identity. It was... low self-esteem, deep self-esteem!
"I know that grievances make people uncomfortable, but I don't know what kind of discomfort is grievance, or all the discomfort is grievance. I don't know what it is to like and what it is to be liked. I don't know what it feels like to like someone What is it like, and what does it feel like to be liked by others? I don’t know what kind of people are called friends. Is it true that people who can communicate are friends, or that no matter whether they can communicate or not, as long as they know each other, they are friends? I am very confused... Really very confused..."

Speaking of this, the inferiority complex on Zi Lin's face became more obvious.Looking at the expression on Zilin's face and listening to Zilin's words, Mu Chen felt a convulsive pain in his heart. Before the age of 12, he always thought that he was the saddest, most despicable, and least existential ant in the world, with nothing.

But after he set foot on this continent, he realized that when he was the saddest, most despicable, and least sense of existence, he got the most precious, most real, and happiest thing in this world, that is, true love and sincerity!

At least he knows what family love is!Know what it means to care, someone cares!Know what is grievance, what is jealousy, what is hatred; know what is liking...what is being liked, what is friend, and what...is enemy.
