Chapter 685: Chapter 685: Meeting the Young Madam

Including her previous life, her corpse that emitted a strange odor was still taken away by this person’s hands.

Allen noticed Gu Jin’s intense gaze on him, and he tilted his head to scrutinize the future Young Madam whom they would serve.

When he last visited Hua Country, he had seen Gu Jin from a distance beside Madam Darwin.

Now observing her closely, a glow of astonishment appeared in his eyes.

There was no denying that the Eastern beauty before him was truly captivating, whether it be her outstanding appearance or her extraordinary demeanor, both were heart-stirring.

The surprise in Allen’s eyes flickered and quickly dissipated, restoring to normal expression.

His eyes flickered, inadvertently meeting An Mingji’s displeased gaze.

As a fellow man, he knew very well why this was.

Allen’s lips curled slightly, he placed his right hand on his left shoulder and bowed slightly to the two.

"Allen greets Young Master, greets Young Madam."

Those standing behind Allen also performed the same courtesy.

"Greetings to Young Master, Young Madam."

"Greetings to Young Master, Young Madam—"

An Mingji’s expression suddenly changed upon hearing their address.

He immediately looked at Gu Jin sitting beside him.

But he saw her continuously staring at Allen, as if looking through him to someone else, her expression revealing occasionally conflicted, occasionally understanding feelings, and some emotions he couldn’t comprehend.

"Gu Jin?" An Mingji stretched out his arm, gently touched her.

Gu Jin turned her head, looking at him blankly, as if asking what he wanted.

An Mingji sighed lightly and asked, "What are you thinking?"

"Hmm?" Gu Jin showed confusion, carefully recalling An Mingji’s question just now, finally coming back to full awareness.

She adjusted her facial expression, "Nothing, I just thought of some things."

An Mingji sensed something was off with her but did not inquire further.

When he looked at Allen, his eyes showed evident vigilance, with traces of confusion flashing in his deep eyes.

Gu Jin once again looked at Allen, she reached out and petted Duoduo, soothing its agitated mood, casually asked, "I heard you’re a Dark Ability User?"

"Yes, Young—"

"Cough, cough!!"

An Mingji suddenly began coughing violently at this moment.

Allen stopped mid-sentence, looked at An Mingji, full of confusion in his expression.

Recalling the words just now, there didn’t seem to be anything inappropriate.

Meeting his slightly querying gaze, An Mingji frequently winked at him.

Allen wasn’t foolish, soon understood something.

Gu Jin was completely baffled by the silent exchange between the two.

Before she could ask, Allen slightly bowed to her, "Miss Gu, I am indeed a Dark Ability User, most of those behind me are Dark Ability Users as well, among them are wind, fire, thunder, electricity, and water ability users, similar to the cultivators in Hua Country."

Gu Jin nodded slightly to him, actually she just asked casually.

Confirming Allen’s identity, her mood now was very complex.

She didn’t want to understand the differences between Western superpower users and Eastern cultivators, her mind was filled with An Mingji, who had already begun to step into the Darwin Family.

The other was bound to return to the status he held in his previous life, which inevitably meant leaving her.

Just thinking this made her heart sink.

To prevent revealing anything amiss, she shifted her gaze, "Kasi, is dinner ready?"

"It’s already prepared."

Gu Jin stood up, giving a gentle pat on An Mingji’s shoulder who was sitting on the sofa, "Let’s eat."

After speaking, she stepped towards the direction of the dining room.
