Lin Qing felt a jolt in her heart.
This wasn't part of the plan.
There's no doubt, this was Honglian's method of verification—she might really be as the other party claimed, not very familiar with mechanisms, but clearly she couldn't verify things she didn't understand herself. For now, the only thing she was sure of knowing was herself.
However, Lin Qing knew that the transactions at the Ability Store were fair trade; if the other party didn't agree, Chen Xuan wouldn't be able to take any ability from her.
Using pop-up reminders to deceive Wang Baihu was calculating with intent, but now that Honglian mentioned it, it's evidently unlikely she'd fall for the same trick; she probably would consider every detail.
"This..."
"Agree with her," Chen Xuan said decisively.
"Are you sure?" Lin Qing cautioned him in her mind, "She's not easy to fool."
"Rest assured, I have my methods. Just follow and repeat what I say."
