Chapter 140: An Evident Swank
Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated
Friday’s classes were probably the most relaxing classes of the week. Hao Ren and the guys only needed to take two fundamental courses in the morning and could go back home after lunch.
When Hao Ren, Cao Ronghua, and Zhou Liren arrived in the classroom, it was almost full. However, Yu Rong saved them a few seats at the back.
Hao Ren held his textbooks, sat down, and looked at the front habitually. However, he noticed that Xie Yujia didn’t come today; the seat beside Ma Lina was empty.
It was a minute before class starts, but Xie Yujia was absent.
Hao Ren’s heart suddenly felt empty. Yet, when he thought about it again, it was normal for her to be spending time with her dad, who hasn’t come back to the country in a while.
After the lecture started, Yu Rong came up to him. “Ren! You did great in yesterday’s basketball game!”
Hao Ren smiled at him and continued to organize his tutoring material.
Seeing Hao Ren didn’t reply, Yu Rong came close to him again and said, “Ren, why don’t you introduce us to those twin girls?”
“Get lost!” Hao Ren waved his hand and shooed him away.
“They are first-year students, and they are super beauties as well. Ask them out for a meal!” Yu Rong continued to instigate.
Yu Rong finally used his final move when he saw that Hao Ren was still doing his own things and didn’t bother to talk to him. “I have important news. Do you want to know?”
“Speak.” Hao Ren finally raised his head.
“It seems like Huang Xujie wants to pursue the twin girls,” Yu Rong said.
Hao Ren sneered in disdain and continued to organize the tutoring material. He thought it was an important piece of news, but it turned out to be such a trivial matter.
Lu Linlin and Lu Lili were both Kun-level Masters, and their existences were something Inspector Su Han dreaded. They could kill Huang Xujie just by pinching a finger, and he didn’t need to worry about this at all.
Yu Rong was surprised when he saw Hao Ren ignoring this news.
“Why doesn’t Hao Ren care about this news? Isn’t he afraid that Huang Xujie will cause trouble? Or, could it be that the relationship between the twins and him is normal?” Yu Rong thought.
“Sigh, you guys know that the girls have been excited lately. The legendarily handsome Qin Shaoyang is hosting a personal exhibition at our school next week!” the guys, who were on the other side of the table, chatted at a low volume since the lecture was too dull.
Yu Rong was bored with Hao Ren’s reaction and went up to them immediately. “I know! He’s the guy with the golden eyes, right? I’ve seen him on TV before. He looked alright, just slightly worse compared to me!”
“Golden eyes?” Hao Ren stopped moving the pen in his hand and concentrated.
He then raised his hearing. Now, he could not only hear Yu Rong’s conversation but also the girls’ discussion in the front of the room.
“I heard that Qin Shaoyang is really good-looking! Don’t know how he looks in person though!”
“I have his poster; it was from a magazine! Many female celebrities seem to like him!”
“His oil paintings received many awards internationally. I heard that his traditional Chinese painting is also very good. This exhibition is his first time showcasing his traditional Chinese paintings! Many well-known figures from the art community are coming too!”
The few girls in the class discussed in whispers, and they seemed to be slightly excited as well.
“Even these girls in this faculty have heard of this Qin Shaoyang. It seems that this Qing Shaoyang is indeed handsome and talented,” Hao Ren thought.
“And his eyes are golden and very charming!” a girl said again.
“Golden? From wearing colored contact lenses?”
“No, the golden color is actually from his golden pupils. Rumors said that he’s mixed and that’s why he’s good-looking. However, he said his parents are both overseas, and they’re both Chinese Citizens. He went to France for two years and just came back to his home country again,” another girl said.
Hao Ren could only obtain this much information after listening to their conversations. Therefore, he began paying attention to the lecture and continued to organize the tutoring material.
These two Mount Tai Bracelets have been getting heavier and heavier now, and it probably meant that his cultivation had been improving. According to what the Lu sisters had said, as long as the five elements in his body reach the equilibrium, he would successfully reach Kan-level.
There were only two weeks left until Zhao Yanzi’s birthday party.
Ding, ding, ding……
The two lectures in the morning ended.
Lu Linlin and Lu Lili, who were wearing glasses, appeared at the entrance of the classroom on time.
“Wow! Glasses! Sooooo cute!” Yu Rong, who already walked out of the classroom, suddenly covered his eyes and jumped back into the classroom as if he saw something very dazzling.
“So cute…,” even the girls who passed by and saw these twin girls couldn’t help but compliment them.
“Gongzi!” They both yelled when they saw Hao Ren walking out.
Hao Ren felt like his scalp became numb, and his spine turned chilly from the guys’ intense jealous gazes.
“What are you guys doing here again?” Hao Ren’s tone sounded helpless.
However, the guys wanted to stomp Hao Ren to death when they heard his tone.
“This guy showed an impatient expression when the extremely cute twin sisters came to see him!”
“To go home with Gongzi!” they answered.
Yu Rong and the others, who stood on the side, almost had their eyes pop out when they heard this answer.
If Su Han was the superior beauty who one couldn’t get to see often, then these two were actual beauties who lived in the real world.
“Let’s go, let’s go,” Hao Ren waved his hand helplessly because this was not a good place to talk.
Seeing Hao Ren leading the two girls to the stairs, all the guys began yelling together in their minds, “It’s too despicable and too shameful!”
Walking out of the Academic Building, Hao Ren still felt like many eyes were on him. Yet, it didn’t feel like people were surrounding him anymore.
“Why aren’t you guys going back home but follow me?” Hao Ren asked them.
“We said last time; it’s to visit Taijun!” Lu Linlin said.
Hao Ren sighed again, “This…… This isn’t necessary……”
Grandma already had Zhao Yanzi and Little Carrot. She probably couldn’t take it if little Linlin and little Lili were added.
Lu Linlin and Lu Lili didn’t talk but insisted on following Hao Ren. It looked like they would follow as well even if Hao Ren went on a bus.
“Hao Ren!”
Suddenly, a clear voice came from the side.
Hao Ren turned his head and saw Su Han, who was dressed in white, standing underneath the shade of a tree not so far away.
Hao Ren saw that the guys passing by were looking at him with murderous gazes. He endured the discomfort of being in the center of the attention, led the two beauty followers, and walked towards her.
“What’s the matter, Su Han?”
“You picked the Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll as your main cultivation technique?” Su Han asked directly.
“Yeah.” Hao Ren nodded. “Ah, I have been too busy for the past two days and didn’t have time to come to see you.”
“You’re not busy; you’re just afraid of me, right?” Su Han glanced at him coldly. “Don’t worry; I won’t add any imprisonments on you again. I’m just here to remind you that the Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll isn’t easy to cultivate. You should change to another one when it’s still early.”
“I’m not changing. This cultivation technique is slower, but it’s stable,” Hao Ren replied.
Su Han didn’t persuade more since Hao Ren already made up his mind. He changed the subject and said, “There are still two weeks until Zi’s birthday. Starting next week, come to cultivate in my office for two hours every day.”
“Okay!” Hao Ren accepted right away.
“Also, there was a Li-level River Dragon in your basketball game yesterday. But it seemed like he was just there for fun and didn’t try his best,” Su Han said.
“Li-level?” Hao Ren was slightly surprised because that was one level higher than Kan-level.
“When you’re at Kan-level, you’ll be able to see other dragons,” Su Han said.
Hao Ren nodded.
They looked at each other and were silent for a few seconds.
“That’s it,” Su Han said.
A cold wind blew.
Hao Ren thought there was more, but who knew that Su Han was already finished. She really was an icy beauty.
Su Han turned around and walked towards her office.
Hao Ren looked at her graceful figure. He couldn’t help but sigh when he thought that he has been ‘skipping classes’ quite often recently and he had to go to her office for training every day now.
“Linlin, Lili, don’t follow me on Zi’s birthday. There will be many hidden masters appearing. You guys won’t be safe following me around,” Hao Ren walked towards the entrance of the school and said.
“Um, we won’t participate in Dragon Tribe’s gathering. However, we heard from Elder Lu that it’d be safe if Gongzi cultivates to Kan-level,” Lu Lili said with a smile.
From her perspective, it seemed like cultivating to Kan-level was a very easy thing to do.
Hao Ren returned to the southern dorm, put his textbooks back in the room, took his small bag, and prepared to bring some snacks back over the weekend.
Beautifully dressed Lu Linlin and Lu Lili waited downstairs. If those guys saw this scene, they would stomp Hao Ren to death due to jealousy.
Making the two beautiful girls waiting for him outside of the Dorm Building as he slowly organized his things in the room. This was such an evident swank!
“Such a glorious Sophomore!” When Hao Ren walked to the bus stop, Huang Xujie’s voice suddenly sounded.
Hao Ren turned over and saw Huang Xujie leading a bunch of henchmen and waiting near the bus stop.
Lu Linlin and Lu Lili felt the hostility, walked up two steps spontaneously, and blocked Huang Xujie.
“Ay, you have two little bodyguards!” Huang Xujie swung his arm and said with a smile.
He was wearing an athletic vest that showed off his solid muscles. After all, he has practiced rock climbing for a few years.
“Linlin, Lili, come back!” Hao Ren yelled.
He was worried that if they fought without knowing the consequences, Huang Xujie would be knocked into the sky.
“I know that I screwed up the recruitment for your club last time and you didn’t feel good about it. You can come at me if you want,” Hao Ren took two steps forward and said, “We can arm-wrestle since you want to show off your muscles.”
Hao Ren was wearing a shirt that he had been wearing for two days, and he couldn’t compare himself with the handsome Huang Xujie in terms of appearance. Also, His skinner arms underneath his sleeves couldn’t even be comparable to Huang Xujie’s arms.
Huang Xujie indeed endured a week of anger. However, before the basketball game, Hao Ren was still a member of the Basketball Team, and Huang Xujie didn’t dare to provoke Xie Wanjun.
Since Hao Ren decided not to join the basketball team, Huang Xujie had one less thing to worry about and decided to fight against Hao Ren since Hao Ren was on a roll right now. Not only was he close to Su Han but also the twin girls who just enrolled at the school. They followed him everywhere and made everyone envious.
Huang Xujie wasn’t scared to reveal his motive. He was jealous! Lu Linlin and Lu Lili were the Vice Principal’s granddaughters; other people didn’t dare to pursue them, but he was not afraid!
The moment they appeared on the basketball court, he felt like he had to pursue them! Su Han was his long-term goal, and these two beauties who just enrolled in the school were his short-term goals!
No matter what methods he had to use, he had to get to know them and approach them! They were beauties who would make people’s hearts skip a beat! If he got to date them, his university life would be complete!
There was a bench in the waiting area at the bus stop.
Huang Xujie pinched his wrist and squatted down.
Hao Ren rolled up his sleeves and squatted down as well.
They locked hands.
Huang Xujie’s henchmen counted down, “Three, two, one!”
Pa! Almost immediately, Huang Xujie’s hand was pressed underneath Hao Ren’s.
Hao Ren wiped his hand, stood up, and waved his hand. “Let’s go, Linlin, Lili! The bus is here!”
Lu Linlin and Lu Lili didn’t even look at Huang Xujie; they followed Hao Ren tightly and hopped on the bus!
