The sky was still bright and sunny the next day.

Hao Ren had comfortably slept through the night and was about to go to class with Zhao Jiayi and the other guys. Little White jumped out from the bushes and followed Hao Ren around.

“You guys know right? Song Qingya’s signed pictures are already selling for 600 yuan each.”

“That Xu Ke almost was beaten up by seniors.”

“Yeah. Girls even barged into his dorm!”

“He escaped, but the whole school is searching for him!”

They heard students around them gossip while they walked to the academic building.

Hao Ren secretly nodded. The signed pictures of Song Qingya helped him to get the whole school on his side to catch Xu Ke. This would help him get away from Xu Ke’s eyes while he lost nature essence this week.

After Yue Zilong defeated Wang Shitong, there hasn’t been much news about him.

Xie Yujia had ridden her bike to class and was already there in the classroom saving spots for everyone. Lu Linlin and Lu Lili returned to their healthy-looking states after a good night’s sleep. Now, they were waving passionately at Hao Ren.

“Gongzi! Gongzi!”

The Lu sisters’ arms were like four lilies waving in the wind.

Although this was seen every day, Yu Rong and the others were still jealous that the Lu sisters were so close with Hao Ren.

Xie Yujia attentively made notes in class while the Lu sisters sat next to her. The Lu sisters had some points that they didn’t understand but would later copy Xie Yujia’s notes.

The three beauties sitting together created a harmonious picture.

Hao Ren looked at them for a while and then turned toward the windows.

The school’s roads were a bit wet; the flower bushes still had water drops on them. This was because it rained last night.

From afar, Hao Ren could see Su Han’s office; her curtains were shut tightly. Hao Ren knew that she was cultivating.

The upcoming trip to the Nine Dragon Palace would be a treacherous one, so Su Han needed to do some final preparations.

The purple gold hairpin and the golden shield were quietly sleeping in Hao Ren’s necklace, and Little White had sneaked into the classroom by hiding behind Hao Ren’s feet. It was a miracle that the teacher didn’t see it.

It used Hao Ren’s shoes as a doghouse as it lied there and slept.

When Hao Ren was showering last night, he saw a purple light flash by. At that time, he felt his necklace move a bit, and he thought that the golden shield or the purple gold hairpin wanted to fly out. However, his necklace returned to normal very quickly.

“Gongzi! Gongzi…” Hao Ren was in a daydream while looking out the windows, but Lu Lili who was sitting next to him used a pen to poke him.

Hao Ren smiled and turned his head back to the front of the classroom and continued to listen. In reality, he had spent two hours last night and finished reading the textbooks for this core module class; he retained most of the knowledge.

Lu Lili saw Hao Ren’s kind smile and blushed a bit before looking down and sticking her tongue out for a second. She enjoyed the feeling she got by taking classes with Hao Ren.

“You can do it; you can do it…”

Shouts came from LingZhao Middle School’s direction.

“What are they doing over there?” Hao Ren asked Lu Lili.

“I don’t know. It seems like Athletic Games are going on,” Lu Lili said as she leaned over and looked.

“Who knows if the athletic Zhao Yanzi is competing…” Hao Ren thought.

LingZhao Middle School had just moved over, so it was the first time that it could have a separate Athletic Games than the high school department.

Summer vacation had just ended, and the school had just started. This was great timing for an Athletic Games where the school could motivate students to become more active as most students were fairly lazy during the summer.

“Let’s go over and watch later,” Hao Ren said after a few seconds of thought.

“Sure! Sure!” Lu Lili had never seen an Athletic Games, so she immediately happily agreed.

She looked very active and cute, which made Hao Ren smile again.

A normal Athletic Games would start with the opening ceremony in the morning. The classes would line up and enter the field in order. Official matches wouldn’t begin until around ten in the morning. However, the main events were all in the afternoon.

Hao Ren looked at the time; after two classes, time would be just right. Those races and other exciting events were usually held in the afternoon.

Also, Zhao Yanzi was an active athlete in both short-distance and long-distance races, so her events would be in the afternoon for sure.

From yesterday afternoon to this morning, Hao Ren hadn’t seen her and actually missed her a bit.

The two classes ended. Lu Lili even skipped lunch to drag Hao Ren over to LingZhao Middle School. When Lu Linlin saw how close her younger sister was with Hao Ren, she smiled.

Both Lu Linlin and Xie Yujia then followed them over to LingZhao Middle School.

The school’s guards didn’t let them in, so Xie Yujia called her old class advisor, Luo Ying.

Then, Luo Ying came out and led them inside the school.

Luo Ying really liked Xie Yujia, but she wasn’t too friendly toward Hao Ren. She had only let Hao Ren in because of Xie Yujia.

It was the first time that Lu Linlin and Lu Lili went into LingZhao Middle School, so everything was new to them.

“This is the first Athletic Games at the new campus, so it’s quite an event. Also, because the middle school and high school departments are separately doing the Athletic Games, Grade Nine students are also participating,” Luo Ying explained as she led the way.

“Yeah. Ms. Luo, you are in charge of a Grade Nine class. It must be tough,” Xie Yujia said.

“Yeah. Students nowadays aren’t as good as before,” Luo Ying said as she turned her head and looked at Hao Ren.

Hao Ren’s face turned stiff and thought to himself, “What does that have to do with me?”

“Let’s go eat at the cafeteria first,” Luo Ying led Xie Yujia and her group to the cafeteria.

She was very generous to Xie Yujia, who was her favorite student from before, and treated her with great hospitality. However, she was still a little bit biased toward Hao Ren.

But since Hao Ren was Xie Yujia’s boyfriend, she could only respect and trusted Xie Yujia’s choice.

The cafeteria was full of students already. Different from East Ocean University, LingZhao Middle School only had one cafeteria, and students and teachers shared the same area.

However, teachers and staff had their own windows to get their meals, so they wouldn’t need to line up after students.

Hao Ren and the other three followed Luo Ying as she paid for their lunch. Hao Ren looked at Luo Ying and thought that she was a nice person.

The middle school students were quite curious, especially since Hao Ren and the three girls were with Luo Ying.

“That girl is so pretty…”

“Those twins are even prettier… Are they from the high school department or are they new transfers?”

The middle school boys noticed Xie Yujia and the Lu sisters right off the bat and started to talk amongst themselves while lining up for food.

Xie Yujia had a senior aura to her, so she didn’t seem like she was from the high school department. They guessed that she had already graduated from high school. However, the Lu sisters were cuter, so they imagined that they were from the high school department or might even be Grade Nine transfer students.

The three girls became the center topic for the boys in the cafeteria, making the cafeteria a lively place to be.

It was LingZhao Middle School’s Athletic Games today, so there was no class. The atmosphere around the school was more relaxed as if it were a holiday for them. That was why even such small things became the spotlight of the conversation for the day.

“That’s Hao Ren…! He’s Zi’s boyfriend!”

A few girls recognized Hao Ren and started chattering.

Ling was lining up with Zhao Yanzi. They heard everyone around them gossiping and saw them pointing fingers at strangers, so they looked over to the staff window and saw Luo Ying leading Hao Ren, Xie Yujia, and the Lu sisters.

“Ah…” Zhao Yanzi was shocked. Then, she thought to herself, “What is this? Why is he with Xie Yujia?”

Zhao Yanzi was jealous.

Although the relationship between Xie Yujia and her had grown tighter, the fact that Hao Ren brought Xie Yujia to LingZhao Middle School, especially with her class advisor with them, made them look like a couple!

“Is that really Zhao Yanzi’s boyfriend? He looks perfect with the girl next to him!”

“You don’t know her? Her name is Xie Yujia, and her photos were on the walls in the old campus. She is one of Luo Ying’s previous students. She came to LingZhao for both middle and high school.”

“Oh… She’s studying at East Ocean University?”

“Yeah! She and this Hao Ren seem to be dating. Otherwise, Luo Ying wouldn’t treat them for lunch. So, Zhao Yanzi must be lying when she said that he is her boyfriend.”

The gossip amongst the girls grew like wildfire in the cafeteria.

Zhao Yanzi was so furious that her facial muscles tensed up. She could only stare while Luo Ying led the group to a table far away from the line ups. Luo Ying and Xie Yujia also seemed to be having a great conversation.

Hao Ren was walking next to Xie Yujia as if he were her boyfriend! He was handsome while she was pretty, which made the perfect couple!

“Zi, you don’t need to be mad. I think Uncle is here to watch your matches,” Ling tried encouraging Zhao Yanzi when she saw how mad Zhao Yanzi was.

Ling was afraid that Zhao Yanzi would be irrational and charge over in front of all the staff and students. However, even though she was trying to encourage Zhao Yanzi, she didn’t sound quite confident with her words.

“Hao Ren had so many beautiful girls around him. This time, he came to LingZhao Middle School with three beautiful girls by his side. Does he still like Zhao Yanzi?’

“Zhao Yanzi said that Hao Ren over there is her boyfriend. It must be fake. Look at how handsome Hao Ren is. He’s also a great fighter. The girl next to him is pretty too!”

“Yeah. Zhao Yanzi even said that he’s her fiancé. I’d say that he’s only her cousin and only came to pick her up last summer. I never even seen him pick her up from school after class on normal days!”

“Yeah. I’ve never seen them kiss either, so he probably isn’t her boyfriend! Xie Yujia is his real girlfriend. Otherwise, they wouldn’t come here to see her old teacher.”

All sorts of gossip spread through the room, and Zhao Yanzi listened to them all.

“Hey! What dish do you want!” The cafeteria lady used her silver soup and knocked on the window.

“Vegetables! Vegetables! Vegetables!” Zhao Yanzi said in an irritated tone.

“Pa, pa, pa…” The cafeteria lady gave three vegetable dishes to Zhao Yanzi.

Zhao Yanzi didn’t even look before taking her plate. Then, she stomped in the direction of Luo Ying.

“Hey! Hey!” It was Ling’s turn at the window, and she waved and shouted at Zhao Yanzi.

Zhao Yanzi ignored Ling.

Under everyone’s gaze, she walked over to Luo Ying and sat right across from her. She put down her plate heavily as she sat right next to Hao Ren as if she were declaring that the spot was hers.
