Chapter 462: Chapter 123 Fairy_2

“Not late, not late.”

Link smiled awkwardly and pushed Jasmine towards the inside.

Seeing this, Jasmine did not continue to vent her feelings.

The balance of their relationship was important.

Dwelling on a small matter and being relentless in doing so could turn a right to a wrong.

Any relationship would sooner or later become tiresome if such situations arose frequently.

In the dining room, Jasmine had prepared lunch for two.

This was something that Link had promised to do.

Jasmine returned to the villa by the lake filled with anticipation, only to encounter a cold dining room and an empty table.

However, she still set aside her disappointment and prepared lunch for them. It was an incredibly sensible act.

“Sit.”

Link courteously spread out the tableware for Jasmine, poured her a cup of tea, and only then did he take a seat opposite her.

“Start eating, start eating.”

Jasmine picked up her knife and fork, her previous gloom had dissipated, revealing a sweet smile.

Her fair hands were slightly swaying, and her eyes were filled with uncontainable eagerness and happiness.

Being able to have a meal with someone she enjoyed company with was enough to offset all grievances and dissatisfaction.

All that was left was joy.

“Start eating, start eating.”

Link cut a piece of lamb, Jasmine’s favorite, and placed it on her plate.

No talking during dinner.

The two finished their warm lunch in a harmonious atmosphere.

Jasmine picked up a napkin to wipe the oil from her mouth, had a sip of her tea, and then initiated the conversation, “Mina visited me. She said Lucia’s Family is preparing a team, planning to target you. She didn’t know the specifics of the plan.”

Upon hearing this, Link seemed contemplative.

The reminders from Tiffany Colonna, the early warning from Wizard Cody, and Mina’s intelligence contributed to Link’s understanding of Lucia Family’s planned retaliation against him.

He understood that under the pressure from the school, the Lucia Family paid a large price to provide Zoran with a relatively peaceful environment to promote his Metamorphosis Period.

It was unlikely that they would risk offending the academy by retaliating against him once again.

So this was the kind of retaliation they planned!

The Lucia Family was likely planning to disrupt Link during the upcoming wizard organization competition.

Their intention was to make Link lose favor with the higher-ups in the academy.

Only then could the Lucia family take the opportunity to retaliate against Link without suffering backlash, and regain their lost face.

For these families, face was indeed important.

“I think I understand.”

Coming to his senses, Link told Jasmine about Wizard Cody’s information on the competition and told her to notify the other eight about a team training he planned to start tomorrow evening.

“Alright, I’ll notify them this afternoon.”

Jasmine agreed, then asked worriedly, “But you haven’t excluded me, have you?”

Link laughed and said, “Don’t worry, I haven’t.”

“That’s good.”

Jasmine drank all her milk tea and wiped her mouth with a napkin. She took out the lipstick from “Do Whatever You Want” and applied a slightly purple color to her lips.

She walked over to Link, bent down, and whispered in his ear, “If you dared to exclude me, I would have bitten you badly.”

She then pulled open Link’s clothes, and kissed the spot where she had bitten him before, leaving a faint lipstick mark that looked like a bruise.

Was this a reminder? A threat? Or was it flirting?

Link didn’t really know, feeling the warmth on his shoulder.

“I’m leaving, don’t make me wait for you tonight.”

Leaving a warning behind, Jasmine left the villa to “Do Whatever You Want” and do as Link had instructed her.

Link took a sip of his green tea.

He had no intention of wiping off that lipstick mark on his shoulder.

What if she checks again in the evening?

A girl in love always thinks in peculiar ways.

Link didn’t want to bring about unnecessary trouble.

Sitting alone for a while and finishing his tea, Link instead didn’t go to the potion shop that afternoon. He turned to the study on the second floor and started designing a training plan for team collaboration.

While he was doodling on the paper and hadn’t yet got his thoughts straight, his pocket device started to vibrate.

Checking the screen, he saw it was a video call request from Lanny Taylor.

Without hesitation, he accepted the request instantly.

“There is something I felt is necessary to inform you in advance.”

The moment that flawless face of Lanny appeared on the screen, her voice was heard.

“What is it? Tell me.”

Link took Lanny’s words seriously.

As she was by Sandra’s side, she had access to information that even fragments could have great value.

“You need to be prepared, you might be conscripted again.”

Without beating around the bush, Lanny directly revealed the news she had heard, “This time, it’s more than just you. Your entire team will likely be conscripted.”

“A competition?”

Link guessed upon hearing this and asked right away.

“You got the news?”

Lanny was surprised, as she only learned about this recently.

“Only about the competition.”

Link gave a quick explanation.

“Oh.”

Lanny suddenly understood.

“I cannot say much, you must take this seriously. Apparently, there are death quotas for the competition.”

Possibly because she was busy with something, after hurriedly leaving this message, Lanny ended the call.

“Death quotas?”

Link murmured to himself.

The source of this information was Sandra, so it must be accurate.
