Just as Ji Xiunian was thinking if he could withdraw his message in time, Lu Xu had already sent a reply––

[SS-Lu Xu: Of course, let’s meet up and talk later when there’s time.]

Just looking at the message alone, he didn’t think that there was a change in Lu Xu’s attitude, so Ji Xiunian was much more relieved.

After he thought about it, he sent another message––

[Ji Xiunian: Thank you for saving me, I don’t know how to thank you.]

[SS-Lu Xu: Hahaha, if there’s a chance later, use your life as repayment?]

Upon first glance of that sentence, Ji Xiunian had thought that Lu Xu had typo-ed ‘body’ as ‘life’.

[SS-Lu Xu: Nian ge, I’m kidding. Let’s talk when we meet.]

Lu Xu added a laughing sticker at the end. Across the screen, Ji Xiunian could imagine Lu Xu’s smiling demeanour.

“See you later.”

That was what Ji Xiunian thought. When he regained his senses, he couldn’t resist searching up things related to Devil’s Bay.

He had no way to explain to others what he had seen, he could only search for some evidence himself then wait to speak with Lu Xu.

But ever since they had got off the cruise ship, Ji Xiunian hadn’t met with Lu Xu.

Although he kept saying that he was fine, for safety’s sake Fan Zeng still sent him to the hospital for a full body checkup. After making sure that there weren’t any problems, only then did they send a car to take him back to the apartment. By that time it was already early morning.

At this time, the apartment was especially quiet. The trainees were all silent.

When passing by room 201, Ji Xiunian especially took note, thinking that at this time Lu Xu was probably already sleeping, so he wouldn’t go disturb him.

“Nian ge is back!”

“Nian ge, are you okay?”

“Wuuuu, when you weren’t here we missed you.”

The F4 saw Ji Xiunian coming over and immediately gathered in excitement.

He Xinghua looked at Ji Xiunian from the left and from the right. Seeing that he was still breathing, he patted his chest and said happily, “Thankfully Nian ge is all right, otherwise our group might have become the F5.”

When Ji Xiunian heard this he was a bit surprised. “You know about what happened at Devil’s Bay?”

“Yes yes. When we heard about it we were so worried about you, but after remembering that you were with Master Lu Xu, you definitely would’ve been fine…”

This wasn’t the first time Ji Xiunian had heard the F4 calling him Master Lu Xu.

In the very beginning, he had thought that the F4 were just childish spirits, learning from comics and calling people master. Now that it was in this context, it was hard for Ji Xiunian not to overthink it.
