Since learning that Gu Sheng was Wen Mingyan's disciple, the tone of the conversation among the group shifted noticeably. Though they continued to call Gu Sheng "Junior Brother," their words now carried hints of flattery and ingratiation, unconsciously elevating Gu Sheng's status.
Gu Sheng felt a bit uncomfortable with this: "Senior Sister Huang, Brother Dai, Brother Mo, there's no need for this. No matter whose disciple I become, it won't change the bond between us. Things will remain as they were before."
Upon hearing this, the originally slightly despondent and indifferent expression on Lin Miaomiao's face brightened with a smile: "Since Junior Brother Gu says so, then don't complain about us crossing boundaries in the future."
"Not at all! If it weren't for you, Senior Sister Lin, I might've already been cut down when I was at Thunder Wood Mountain. I wouldn't have achieved what I have today without your help."
Lin Miaomiao's smile deepened upon hearing this.
