Looking at Shen Yan’s beautiful figure, Chen Tianlong couldn’t help but get a little excited and hurried to the bathroom to take care of himself.
Afterwards, Chen Tianlong felt a bit overwhelmed, chatted with Shen Yan for a while, and then started cultivating.
The night passed without a word.
As dawn broke, the city gradually awakened, the cool air filled with a refreshing floral fragrance. The lush park with its swaying trees filtered the early sunlight, creating spots of light here and there.
The gentle breeze and golden sunlight lifted one’s spirits with joy and anticipation.
A black Bentley car glided through the light morning mist, heading towards South Sea No. 1 Middle School. Within a dozen minutes, the car reached the school gate.
"Mr. Hu, just drop me off here today. I want to walk inside," Lin Wushuang had heard that recently someone saw her and Chen Tianlong getting out of the car together, and she wasn’t sure what their relationship implied.
To avoid suspicion, she decided to get out at the school gate and let Chen Tianlong follow from a distance.
Mr. Hu was momentarily taken aback, but then nodded. He couldn’t refuse the young lady’s request, regardless of the reason, which was none of his business.
The Bentley stopped by the flowerbed on the right side of the school gate. The three of them gradually got out, and after Lin Wushuang and Lu Xiaoyu bid farewell to Mr. Hu, they walked hand in hand towards the campus.
Chen Tianlong sensibly lagged behind, and from time to time, Lu Xiaoyu looked back. Seeing Chen Tianlong abandoned by her bestie, she felt a little sympathy for him.
"Wushuang, actually, I think Tianlong is very cute. Although he looks a bit plain, if you package him well, he’d really make a great boyfriend," Lu Xiaoyu said deliberately.
"Oh, then you can package him; I’m not interested," Lin Wushuang replied indifferently. Read complete version only at novel-fire.ɴet
"Hehe, okay, I better make a move first, or he might be gone later."
"Pfft, with his rustic look, afraid he’d be taken? Xiaoyu, you’re teasing me!" Lin Wushuang teased with a face full of amusement.
"Are you sure?" Lu Xiaoyu suddenly stopped and said to Lin Wushuang beside her, "Look behind, there are already three or four beauties next to Tianlong; seems like they want an autograph or something."
Lin Wushuang quickly turned around and indeed saw Chen Tianlong holding a pen while those girls crowded around with little notebooks, either seeking his autograph or his phone number.
Seeing this, Lin Wushuang was immediately furious. After all, he was her follower, how could he be taken by other girls? After thinking about it, she suddenly turned around and walked towards Chen Tianlong angrily.
"Everyone get out of the way, Chen Tianlong, are you going to class or not?" Lin Wushuang charged into the crowd dominantly, grabbed Chen Tianlong’s hand, and was about to leave.
Seeing this, Chen Tianlong was dumbfounded.
What nerve did this girl have? If she doesn’t want me near, I won’t go near; now even picking up girls is her concern?
"Who is that, acting that way?"
"Seems like our South Sea’s school beauty, Lin Wushuang."
"She’s the Lin Family’s young lady; we better leave."
The girls finally recognized Lin Wushuang, quickly ran off. Not wanting to cross this young lady of the Lin Family.
"Alright, the beauties are all gone now. Happy? Let go." Chen Tianlong spoke, speechless and a bit angry.
This mission he took on was already ridiculous enough without being able to pick up girls at the bar; now he couldn’t even flirt at school. They’re going to drive him crazy.
"Hmph, I warned you, you’re mine and not allowed to flirt in front of me." Lin Wushuang said angrily.
"Huh? Since when am I yours? Also, I wasn’t flirting in front of you, I was obviously behind you." Chen Tianlong hurriedly explained.
"You’re not allowed to flirt behind my back either. Anyway, you’re my... personal doctor, so you must stay with me at all times, doing nothing else. My dad must be paying you a salary, so focus on work, no distractions." Lin Wushuang shamelessly insisted.
"Lin Wushuang, listen here..."
"I’m listening, go ahead!"
Seeing Chen Tianlong’s obvious anger, Lin Wushuang quickly stepped forward, tiptoed, and stared at him angrily.
"You’re... so bossy!" Before he could say more, Chen Tianlong refrained. His task wasn’t complete yet, and if he angered this girl causing her to refuse treatment, he’d be stuck with her forever.
I’ll endure until you’re cured; then I’ll leave immediately, never wanting to see you again.
"I know what I’m doing, no need to tell me, hmph!" Lin Wushuang said with a cold snort, then strode ahead, feeling very pleased.
Not far away, Lu Xiaoyu saw the scene, thinking they were about to fight, and broke out in a cold sweat.
Chen Tianlong, feeling rather depressed, skipped the morning study session, heading straight to the rooftop to sulk alone. The wind on the rooftop wasn’t strong, but it was refreshing.
Sitting on the railing wall at the top, he took out a pack of cigarettes, lit one up, and smoked leisurely. At that moment, he noticed a striking figure standing at the northeast corner of the rooftop.
Long hair cascaded over shoulders, swaying in the breeze. Judging by the silhouette, a beautiful figure with perfect proportions; surely a beauty.
Chen Tianlong smiled slightly, feeling much better. He never expected to encounter a beauty on the rooftop. If he didn’t make a move, wouldn’t that be a waste of fate?
Chen Tianlong quickly extinguished the cigarette, pulled out a piece of gum from his pocket—something he always carried—and walked over to the beauty.
From that angle, he vaguely saw half of the beauty’s face, feeling a bit familiar, but couldn’t recall at the moment since he wasn’t looking straight on.
At this point, the beauty held a textbook, seeming to recite it with eyes closed. Her cherry-like lips moved slightly.
"Hey beauty, may I interrupt?" Chen Tianlong swallowed and decided to start chatting up such an enchanting girl.
Upon hearing this, the beauty first paused, then immediately turned around.
She heard a familiar voice, and sure enough, as Wu Mengting turned, both of them froze.
"It’s you!" They exclaimed in unison.
Then, they exchanged knowing smiles, understanding each other without words.
Fate is such a strange thing. Once it appears, it can’t be stopped.
Wu Mengting used to laugh at the unrealistic plots in those youth idol dramas, but seeing this scene with Chen Tianlong, realized how true it all was.
"Good morning, Chen Tianlong."
"Morning, beauty—oh no, Wu Mengting!"
Chen Tianlong still hadn’t caught his breath from excitement. Seeing Wu Mengting, he sincerely liked her. Ever since seeing her that night, she lingered in his mind like a toxin.
He had thought they’d never meet again, yet didn’t expect it to happen so soon.
"What’s wrong? Just now, I saw you alone smoking and looking downcast. Couldn’t recognize you from afar. Is something bothering you?" Wu Mengting asked directly, still smiling.
Dealing with Chen Tianlong, she didn’t know why, but felt no sense of wariness.
"Not much, just feeling a bit agitated," Chen Tianlong admitted honestly.
"Want me to accompany you for a walk?" Wu Mengting’s next response caught Chen Tianlong off guard.
