Du Jinruo looked over, but it wasn’t Gao Wei and Lv Ping she saw standing in front of her.
Although Meng Xinian was behind them, at some distance and with others in front of him, she could still see him through the gaps.
He sat there, turned his head to look over, and even though his gaze didn’t fall this way—perhaps he didn’t even see her—Du Jinruo’s heart still skipped a beat.
This time, she definitely had to tell him that they were not without a connection!
Had he forgotten about the little rabbit from a few years ago?
"Lv Ping is like that, not particularly handsome, but his martial arts are really good, he looks so powerful!" someone nearby began to whisper about Lv Ping.
However, Du Jinruo furrowed her brows.
"I heard that Tyrant Meng from District 157 also signed up!"
Finally, someone beside her started talking about Meng Xinian. Du Jinruo watched the silent man sitting over there while listening to the discussions around her.
"I really want to see him make it to the third round. Captain Meng looks better than anyone else."
"That might be difficult, because I heard Captain Meng’s right leg is injured. It’s very possible he’ll be eliminated in the first round."
"That would be such a shame. But why would he participate if his leg is injured?"
"Someone said he’s just too greedy for glory!"
Upon hearing this, Du Jinruo instantly exclaimed, "Nonsense, how is that possible? He is not like that at all!"
"Oh, Du Jinruo, how do you know he is not like that? Just because he’s the most handsome?"
Du Jinruo’s face turned cold, "Do you think I’m as superficial as you? I’ve been to District 157, and when they talk about Captain Meng, it’s always with admiration. Captain Meng trains with his life on the line every day. His skills are the real deal!"
"Hearing you say that, we really want to see just how good his skills are. But no matter how good his skills, being injured won’t do, right? Especially since this competition for the Elite Supervisor Guard is packed with tough competitors."
"Right, there’s also Lv Ping. I feel that no matter what, the Elite Supervisor Guard King will definitely be Lv Ping."
"I’m starting to worry, what should I do? I really don’t want to see Captain Meng get defeated..."
Seated in the leading seats two rows in front, Gao Wei’s father, Gao Ming, was smiling and saying to Fong Luyuan beside him, "These young girls are so lively, wonder what they’re talking about."
They could generally hear the noise coming from over there, but they couldn’t make out exactly what it was about.
Fong Luyuan knew full well that he was just searching for something to talk about and didn’t respond to his comment, merely twitching the corners of his mouth.
Fong Luyuan was Fong Jianye’s father.
Ever since the last incident, the Gao Family and the Fong Family had been at odds, and being able to sit together now was just for appearances.
To Fong Luyuan’s right was Meng Chaojun.
To the right of Meng Chaojun sat Lu Dan.
Lu Dan was firmly on the side of the Gao Family in this matter, so Meng Chaojun didn’t show him any goodwill.
He felt utterly suffocated to be seated here, flanked almost entirely by those with differing political views, which was an open secret among them.
Fong Luyuan didn’t answer Gao Ming’s remark, but Lu Dan laughed and took up the conversation, "Those little girls are certainly talking about which family the Elite Supervisor Guard King will come from, aren’t we all waiting for that too?" Then, addressing Meng Chaojun, he said, "I heard Xinian is participating too. The last time everyone was discussing this event, wasn’t it said that his leg was injured?"
Meng Chaojun felt a surge of disgust. Knowing that, why did you still set the date?
