When Liu Qing and Ace left the Buried City, it was already noon.
It would probably be past lunchtime if he rushed back to the spawns now.
The two of them decided to eat outside before returning to the spawns.
According to the rules, if no team members were injured or had other important matters to attend to, they would have to leave the Buried City.
They would choose to exchange the magic crystals they had collected.
When they arrived at the guild, Liu Qing avoided Aina as usual.
Who would have thought that he had underestimated Esther's popularity.
As soon as they entered the guild hall, they caused a commotion.
Standing beside Ace, Liu Qing naturally became the target of attention.
Aina was among them.
Today, Aina was still as friendly and amiable as ever. However, when she met Liu Qing, she was a little ambiguous.
Pushing up her glasses, Aina temporarily pushed a new adventurer she was consulting to another colleague.
He walked straight towards Liu Qing and Ace.
Seeing this, Liu Qing did not really want to go against this kind half-elf who had come with an aggressive aura.
Pretending not to see the other party, he handed the bag of magic crystals to Ace and prepared to go out and hide.
"Mister Liu Qing, aren't you going to exchange for magic crystals…?”
He turned around and saw Aina, who was still a few meters away.
At this moment, a voice suddenly appeared behind him.
The back of his neck seemed to be grabbed mercilessly by a small hand, preventing him from moving forward.
She gently pulled Liu Qing back, and Aina's sinister voice rang out.
"Mr. Liu Qing, have you been avoiding me recently?”
In the face of such a situation, he couldn't be weak, at least not on the surface.
Otherwise, you will be in a passive position in the following conversation.
That was because your lack of reasoning was the opponent's most powerful attack.
With a bright smile on his face, Liu Qing turned his head and looked into Aina's eyes.
He spoke with great vigor.
"Yo, Lady Aena,"
"It's been a long time since we last met.”
His shamelessness made Aina angry and amused.
Her aggressive stance disappeared and she grumbled as she poked Liu Qing's forehead a few times.
"I really can't do anything to you!"
"I brought Bale to run around the Buried City a while ago, but I've disappeared for the past few days.”
"If Bale hadn't told me, I wouldn't have known that you joined Loki's minions!”
"As your consultant, you should at least tell me!”
"Do you know how worried I was about you?"
Aina did not finish her sentence, because it was not very auspicious.
As a consultant of the guild, he had seen too many adventurers and too many deaths.
Hearing the worry and concern in her words, Liu Qing's heart warmed and he quickly responded.
Next time, definitely.
Perhaps it was because Aina had focused all her energy on Liu Qing.
After her anger dissipated, she noticed that Ai Si was standing next to them, staring at her and Liu Qing.
As a consultant of the guild, it was impossible for him not to know Ace.
He turned around and bowed to Esther.
"Miss Ace, long time no see."
Imitating Liu Qing's usual habit, Ais nodded slightly and responded to Aina.
"Yeah, long time no see."
After a brief greeting, Aina saw that Ais was holding a bag of magic stones and took it enthusiastically.
He turned around and told Liu Qing not to run away secretly. After getting a response, he ran to exchange for magic crystals.
There weren't many people in the guild, so Liu Qing brought Ace to the reception area at the side and waited.
While waiting, Liu Qing noticed that Ai Si seemed to be staring at him.
He couldn't help but ask curiously.
"What's wrong, Ace?"
"He's been staring at me for a while."
Liu Qing asked, and Esther answered straightforwardly.
"Qing, you're very close to Miss Aina?”
Liu Qing was stunned by this question and wiped his bangs.
"Well…I can't say that I'm familiar with him."”
"Actually, I haven't met Aina many times.”
He recalled that he had only met Aina twice.
The first time was when he had just come out of the Buried City and went to the Guild to exchange for Magic Stones in a sorry state.
The second time was probably to come to the Union to consult about matters related to joining a spawning clan.
After confirming that it should be twice, Liu Qing made a " two " gesture at Ace.
Just as he made this gesture, he suddenly saw Ace's red lips seem to have pouted.
When he wanted to confirm it again, he realized that Esther's face was still as cold as before.
Am I seeing things?
With doubts in her heart, Aina walked over with Varys.
"Miss Ace, this is 450,000 Varys.”
After receiving the bag and nodding, Ace stood up and walked towards the entrance of the guild.
Seeing this, Liu Qing could only hurriedly greet Aina and chase after Ais, who had walked a few meters away.
Suddenly, Aina called out to him from behind.
Looking back, Aina said,""Mr. Liu Qing, tomorrow is the annual Monster Festival. You can go and take a look when you have time.”
