However, the two mortals were too strong. If he didn’t use magical skills, it was impossible for him to win.

Therefore, when he was left with no choice, he had the impulse to use magical skills. Luckily, someone stood out to help him.

Anyway, this young girl who was willing to help him was so stunning!

As a result, the teenager was a little distracted by staring at Gu Ning. Gu Ning felt his look, but didn’t bother to pay much attention to it.

Kato Toya and Kuraki Akemi understood that Gu Ning gave them an out, but they didn’t think further about her intention. They didn’t think she stood out for the teenager and felt she simply wanted to mediate.

When Gu Ning walked over, Kato Toya and Kuraki Akemi actually had the same idea to solve the problem as soon as possible. They were unwilling to waste more time on it as well.

Accordingly, they seized the chance Gu Ning gave them.

However, if they really found the jade bead bracelet from the nearby median, it would prove that they indeed had damaged the teenager’s reputation, which was embarrassing. Nevertheless, if they continued to argue with the teenager, it would cause a worse result.

As a result, after hesitating for a few seconds, Kuraki Akemi went to pretend to search at the nearby median under Kato Toya’s signal.

After looking for a while, Kuraki Akemi deliberately blocked the other people’s view and threw the jade bead bracelet on her wrist to the ground, then she pretended to find it.

Nobody saw that scene except for Gu Ning. Because she was aware that they caused the teenager trouble on purpose, she wasn’t surprised.

Kuraki Akemi had the jade bead bracelet as she walked to them, then she apologized. “I’m sorry, I didn’t carefully search for it and questioned you with a bad attitude instead. Please accept my apologies for damaging your reputation.”

Once Kuraki Akemi found the jade bead bracelet, she apologized to the teenager with alacrity. She even bowed low to him, seeming quite sincere.

“I’m sorry.” Kato Toya didn’t bow, but also apologized sincerely.

They seemed sincere on the surface, but actually it was just an act. After all, they had embarrassed the teenager for no reason. If they didn’t show any sincerity, it would be difficult for them to end the drama.

Gu Ning was the only one who knew they were just acting, while others believed that Kato Toya and Kuraki Akemi were sincere.

Therefore, the teenager gave up his idea of making them apologize to him on their knees after they found the jade bead bracelet. He had never been slandered like that before! If it happened in the cultivation world, he would surely make them pay a high price for it.

However, seeing Kato Toya’s and Kuraki Akemi’s sincere attitude, he felt a little reluctant to make them apologize to him on their knees.

“Alright, my name is cleared. That’s enough. You can go now.” The teenager waved his hand and let them go.

“Thank you for your forgiveness.” Kato Toya and Kuraki Akemi thanked him, then walked away.

After that, onlookers all dispersed as well. Seeing Kato Toya and Kuraki Akemi walking away, Gu Ning turned around to leave too.

However, the teenager stopped her at once. “Miss, please wait a sec.”

“May I help?” asked Gu Ning.

“Um, thank you for helping me out. Can I buy you a meal?” asked the teenager with great anticipation. He invited Gu Ning to share a meal because he wanted to thank her and he was interested in her. He didn’t have any evil thoughts.

“It’s not a big deal. You don’t need to thank me. I don’t think a meal is necessary. My family is waiting for me to dine at home.” Gu Ning declined.

“Oh, fine.” Since she said that, the teenager didn’t insist, but he was very disappointed. Afterwards, he asked curiously, “By the way, why did the 2 people stop the moment you showed up? They refused to believe me no matter how I explained it earlier.”

The teenager didn’t think Gu Ning was in the same group as them and deliberately caused him trouble. After all, he didn’t have anything they wanted.

“Because I’ve defeated both of them. If they continued to fight with us, what do you think they would get?” asked Gu Ning.

“What? You’ve defeated both of them? I can’t believe you’re even stronger than them!” said the teenager in surprise.

Although he wasn’t at a high level, he was outstanding among his peers. Even without magical skills, he wasn’t weak, but he still couldn’t defeat the 2 mortals he just met.

It wouldn’t be a problem for him to defeat one, but surprisingly, this young girl who was about 20 was able to defeat both of them. It meant she must be much stronger than him!

“You don’t live in the capital, right?” asked Gu Ning with certainty, because she knew he was a cultivator from the cultivation world.

“How do you know?” The teenager was surprised again. “Yes, I don’t live in the capital. I came to visit my relatives. They live nearby.”

“The capital seems to be peaceful on the surface, but it actually consists of different kinds of people. You better not have conflicts with others. Try to alleviate problems as much as possible, or turn to the police for help,” said Gu Ning.

In fact, she was simply worried that the teenager might expose his real identity if he was forced to use magical skills in conflicts with other people. Besides, she could see that the teenager was a little impulsive, so she kindly reminded him to be careful.

Actually, tolerance couldn’t solve every problem. For example, Kato Toya and Kuraki Akemi aimed to cause the teenager trouble today. Even if he allowed them to search his body, a fight might not be avoided, because they could directly hide the stuff in his clothes and claim that they found it from his body.

In that case, he should have called the police instead of having a fight with them. The police might not be helpful, but sometimes it could save his life.

If the police couldn’t help him either and he had no connection, he would have to accept the result.

“Sure, I know.” The teenager felt grateful for Gu Ning’s kindness. He also had a deep impression of her beauty.

“Great, bye-bye,” said Gu Ning, walking away.

“Please wait a moment.” The teenager called her right away, “Miss, may I know your name? My name’s Mo Qilin.”

“My name’s Gu Ning,” Gu Ning said.

“Can I have your phone number? Although it’s a little rude, you’ve amazed me and I really hope we can be friends,” said Mo Qilin with slight embarrassment. It was their first meeting after all, so it was indeed a little rude. However, he just wanted to make friends with her.. That was it.
