Compared to everyone else's focus on Chu Muqing, Lin Yi didn't have any interest in him other than taking a second glance at him. His only focus was Wang Xinyan.
He breathed a sigh of relief when he saw that Xinyan was doing well, but now he had a new problem. He didn't know if he should go and meet Xinyan!
Thinking back to the first time he met Tian Chan at the Extreme North Island's auction, Tian Chan didn't acknowledge him from the start. Lin Yi didn't know if Wang Xinyan had similar difficulties.
Reuniting with her just like that might bring trouble to Xinyan, and that wouldn't be in line with Lin Yi's original intentions. But if he didn't greet her at all, acting as if he didn't see her at all, it'd be too heartless, and Lin Yi wouldn't be willing to do that.
To acknowledge or not to acknowledge, this was a problem. Lin Yi couldn't help but fall into a dilemma.
Lin Yi was conflicted because of Wang Xinyan's matter. Huang Xiaotao, who was beside him, was also conflicted when she saw his restless expression.
She guessed that it was most likely because of the woman on the stage, but she didn't know the specifics. She could only ask Lin Yi himself, and Huang Xiaotao was conflicted as to how she should ask.
She had always been thin-skinned. Even though she had such a close relationship with Lin Yi, there were still some things that she couldn't ask. More importantly, she was afraid that if she asked too much or asked the wrong question, it would make Lin Yi feel disgusted. Then it would be too late for regrets.
She was different from Wang Xinyan and the other girls in the secular world. She had been educated in ancient etiquette since she was young, and a woman's jealousy was an unforgivable sin. Moreover, she had never had such thoughts, and naturally, she didn't want Lin Yi to misunderstand that she was jealous of the woman on the stage.
Just as the two of them were conflicted, a somewhat familiar voice suddenly rang out beside them.
"Hey, brother, did you get the test card?" Lin Yi and Huang Xiaotao turned their heads and saw that it was Ge Wei.
"Oh, yes. Got it. Your business is booming today! " Lin Yi nodded and looked at Huang Xiaotao in surprise. He thought, I'm not familiar with this guy. Why did he come back?
Wasn't this fellow selling his secret manual for clearing the test? Could it be that he had already sold all of it? There were close to ten thousand people present. If each person sold 100 spirit jades, it would be a huge business worth hundreds of thousands of spirit jades. He shouldn't have moved so quickly, right?
"Hehe. I'm just trying to make a living. How is that a thriving business? " Ge Wei smiled and curled his lips. He sighed regretfully, "I was counting on this meticulously compiled secret book to make a fortune. Sigh, what a pity …"
"Hmm? Your examination clearance secret manual is indeed worth the money. I see that there are quite a lot of people buying secret manuals. Why do you say it's a pity? "Lin Yi and Huang Xiaotao couldn't help but ask curiously.
"There are a lot of people buying it, but there's no way to continue selling it. Brother, don't you see that the academy guards are all staring at me? "Ge Wei shook his head and smiled bitterly.
If it wasn't for this reason, he would probably be busy for the whole day. But now, if he continued selling, he would probably be arrested on the spot. He would probably be arrested on the spot. Once he was convicted of disrupting the order of the selection, he would not be able to walk away scot-free.
So, he could only give up on this easy business of earning spirit jades. He came back to chat with Lin Yi, the big spender, and take the opportunity to sell some information. Who knows, he might even be able to earn some more. It could also make up for today's loss.
"Hmm, that's true." Lin Yi nodded understandingly- his eyes lit up all of a sudden. He'd been wondering about Wang Xinyan for a while now, but he didn't have anyone around him to ask. This Ge Wei was known as the Detective Ge of Nanzhou, and there was no one more suitable than him for information. Didn't that make him the perfect candidate?
"Young hero, do you have something to ask me?" Ge Wei had seen all kinds of people, and he was constantly paying attention to Lin Yi's expression. With one look, he knew that business was coming.
"That's right, I do have something I'm puzzled about. I wonder if you can help me?" Lin Yi nodded without hiding anything. Huang Xiaotao listened obediently at the side and didn't make a sound.
"Young hero, feel free to ask. I don't dare to say that I know everything, but in the South Continent, there is really nothing that I, Detective Ge of the South Continent, don't not know. The only difference is whether I know more or less. Young hero, you've found the right person to ask me!" Ge Wei immediately said excitedly. He had already seen Lingyu waving at him.
"Hehe, actually, I just want to ask, why is there such a young girl sitting next to the female Vice Dean on the stage? I don't think her strength is very high. And she seems to be quite close to the female Vice Dean. What's the relationship between the two? "Lin Yi asked calmly.
"Oh, so you're asking about her, young hero!" Ge Wei put on a look of realization and laughed in a low voice, "Haha, if you ask anyone else, I can guarantee that no one would know. After all, this is a matter of the Morning Star Academy in the East Continent. The people here have never even stepped foot in the East Continent, so naturally they wouldn't know about these rumors. Young hero, you've found the right person to ask me, Detective Ge of the South Continent!"
"Does that mean that you know about it?" Lin Yi suddenly became excited. He was very eager to know about Wang Xinyan, no matter what. Even if it was just a rumor, he wanted to hear it.
"Yes, of course, but this …" Ge Wei didn't say it directly, but rubbed his fingers. His meaning was obvious, he had to pay Lingyu.
The so-called South Continent's Ge Inquirer relied on collecting and selling information for a living. This was his line of work. Of course, there was no reason for him to divulge information to others for free. Otherwise, if he went around being a good person, wouldn't he be starving?
Although Lin Yi had given him an extra 30 high-grade Spiritual Jades when he bought the test clearance manual, this was a different matter. This was a business, and Ge Wei wouldn't break the rules for no reason. That would be asking for trouble.
Lin Yi nodded and immediately took out a small bag of Spiritual Jades from his bag. Ge Wei roughly weighed it in his hand. There were more than ten of them, and they were all high-grade Spiritual Jades. He immediately smiled in satisfaction.
"Young hero, you have an impressive appearance and you're a talented person. You purposely asked me about this girl. I believe you have feelings for her?" Ge Wei said with a smile, "That's true. She's such a beautiful goddess, and she's also the disciple of the East Sea Divine Nun. There are countless young heroes who admire her. Any normal man would be unable to avoid this."
