The person who came saw Chu Qing and was taken aback, then delighted.
But they immediately heard Chu Qing's words, and their smile didn't get a chance to bloom before it was suppressed:
"What do you mean, 'it's me again'?
"It's clearly fate bringing us together."
"... You're right."
Chu Qing's smile didn't reach his eyes as he nodded, just looking at Hua Jinnian, whose clothes had noticeably thickened, made him feel that it truly might be some sort of ill-fated relationship.
The last time they met was at the Seven Plum Manor.
Hua Jinnian said he was going to attend the Yijian Sect's Sword Tournament, but first he was pursued by Xu Family's Golden Hook, then encountered Young Master Mei.
In the end, because Cao Qiupu was poisoned, Chu Qing first took the group to the Yin Yang Forest, and from there they parted ways.
Hua Jinnian needed to go to the Yijian Sect, which indeed required heading north, but why did they run into each other in such a remote corner...
