Long Xiaoyao had left, but no one from Shrek made a move. What they had heard today was simply too shocking.
Yan Shaozhe was actually related to Long Xiaoyao by blood. If anyone else had said it, they might have taken it as a joke, but these words had come from Huo Yuhao.

"Xian Lin'er." Black lines crossed Yan Shaozhe's forehead.
"Haha." Xian Lin'er laughed cheerfully.
The others laughed as well, easing the previously strange atmosphere considerably.

She was thanking him.
After all, she had just arrived at Shrek Academy—no, that was wrong. Before she had even arrived
