Chapter 456 - I Don't Need Your Company!
Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated
After going through the paper, Hao Ren’s legs were a little sore from Zhao Yanzi’s weight.
But since she was very soft, Hao Ren felt like he was holding a large cat in his arms. Therefore, Hao Ren didn’t feel uncomfortable at all.
“Anything else you don’t understand?” Hao Ren turned to her and asked.
Zhao Yanzi was at the age when she had the best skin. There was no flaw on her face whatsoever, and she was as smooth as a porcelain doll.
“No!” she shrugged at Hao Ren’s stare, and her shoulder accidentally hit Hao Ren’s chin, making him almost biting his tongue.
Zhao Yanzi placed her hands on the table like a nimble little kitten. Then, she hopped from Hao Ren’s chair into her own chair.
The spot where she laid on was still warm, and Hao Ren took another look at Zhao Yanzi and felt like she really looked like a cat that he couldn’t even catch.
“If she likes you, she will stick around for a bit. If she doesn’t, you wouldn’t even be able to touch her,” Hao Ren thought.
Hao Ren looked at her smooth neck underneath her hair and asked, “You have been well-behaved lately and have been focusing on your studies. You haven’t gone out with Ling?”
“She has a boyfriend now,” Zhao Yanzi answered absentmindedly as she noted down the answers Hao Ren just gave her.
“Where is he from?” Hao Ren asked casually.
“Liu Yuntao, from Class Three. He is very good at basketball,” Zhao Yanzi tilted her head as she wrote the answers down.
“Watch your posture.” Hao Ren reached out and straightened her up.
“Annoy…” Zhao Yanzi rolled her eyes at Hao Ren. Then, she bit the tip of the pen while she recalled the procedure Hao Ren wrote down for the questions and re-wrote them on her own paper.
Hao Ren sat beside her, and he felt like she looked like a regular middle-schooler to him no matter what.
“Have there been any love letters from boys in your school lately?” Hao Ren continued to ask.
“Who dares? They all know that I have a boyfriend now,” Zhao Yanzi scanned the paper with her black-gem-like eyes and said casually.
She suddenly looked up at Hao Ren and said, “Don’t get any wrong ideas!”
“Uh…” Hao Ren was stupefied, thinking, “I didn’t get any ideas…”
“Sun Yi from Class Six is quite cute, and he is the captain of the soccer team,” Zhao Yanzi stuck out her little tongue as she said.
“I used to be on the soccer team too,” said Hao Ren.
“Really?” Zhao Yanzi raised her eyebrows.
“Yeah, I was the goalkeeper.” Nodded Hao Ren.
“Pffft…” Zhao Yanzi snorted and said, “Xie Xiaofeng from the High School Department comes to school on his motorcycle every day. There are a lot of middle school girls who like him.”
Zhao Yanzi kept on telling Hao Ren about the gossips at school. Maybe it was because Ling got a boyfriend and there wasn’t anyone else to chat with, Zhao Yanzi just poured it all on Hao Ren.
Hao Ren listened to her as she went on and on. She was indeed a little girl in middle school. However, Hao Ren’s characteristic and personality didn’t suggest to people that he was someone a mid-schooler would like.
“Xie Xiaofeng invited me to karaoke this weekend,” Zhao Yanzi continued.
“You can’t go!” Hao Ren shouted out without thinking.
Zhao Yanzi turned to him. “Why not?”
“Because… Because…” Hao Ren didn’t know what to say.
“It’s great to relax after the exams. Ling needs to go shopping with her boyfriend, and I don’t want to be the third wheel,” Zhao Yanzi said.
“I’ll go with you if you want to go karaoke,” Hao Ren said.
“I don’t need your company,” Zhao Yanzi sniffed, “You are an uncle!”
“I… I…” Hao Ren pointed at himself as he was at a loss for words.
“I am going to sleep now, so you should head back.” Zhao Yanzi pushed Hao Ren’s chair.
She put the paper in her backpack; she probably would work more on it during school the day after. Zhao Yanzi walked to her bed, whipped her slippers off, and slid under the blanket.
Hao Ren sighed and opened the door to her balcony.
Shoo! He headed toward the East Ocean University on his sword energy.
Xie Yujia was studying in Academic Building D, so Hao Ren went straight to see her when he returned to school.
He needed to tutor Zhao Yanzi since her finals were coming up. However, his own finals were also coming up, so he needed some tutoring from Xie Yujia.
Hao Zhonghua and Yue Yang never asked a lot for him, but their bottom line was that he needed to pass all his courses; Hao Ren had to study hard since he didn’t want to get scolded by his parents. This was the same case with Zhao Yanzi.
“Gongzi!” Lu Linlin and Lu Lili appeared as soon as Hao Ren stepped into the classroom.
They had thick books and notes in their hands. Apparently, they were here to review for their exams as well.
Little White wiggled its tail as it ran in front of the twins.
After Hao Ren stopped controlling it, Little White had gotten very familiar with all the buildings in East Ocean University. Sometimes, it went to the Post-Graduate Dorm to see the Lu sisters; sometimes, it went to the dorm buildings in the south to find Xie Yujia; and sometimes, it went to the front of the library to get food from the students.
Most girls were familiar with this ‘puppy’ that ran around the campus now, and they would always keep some food in their bags in case they ran into Little White.
The school’s gardener had been quite busy lately because some of the bushes had been growing like crazy. He even wondered if these bushed were mutated.
Since it was close to finals, the study rooms were crowded. Xie Yujia saved a seat for Hao Ren, but there weren’t any empty seats left for Lu Linlin and Lu Lili.
“Let’s go somewhere else,” Hao Ren said.
“Where?” Xie Yujia looked up.
Hao Ren smiled.
Half an hour later, the four of them arrived at the Ethereal Summit on Fifth Heaven. Little White went into its dog house to enjoy the comfortableness of its personal cave.
Xie Yujia went to the entrance of the valley, and she noticed that the three sects already left their names on the wooden bulletin board that Hao Ren made; it meant that the three sects had taken up the mission.
One hundred level 4 Foundation Establishment Pills was a tremendous reward. Although level 6 spiritual herbs were very precious, it was useless in the hands of cultivators who didn’t know to make elixirs. Foundation Establishment Pills, on the other hand, could increase the chances for Qi Refinement Realm cultivators to get to the Foundation Establishment Realm. Also, 100 level 4 Foundation Establishment Pills would take a large sect on Fifth Heaven years to make, so this enticed all the three small sects around the valley to look for level 6 spirit herbs.
Xie Yujia admired Hao Ren for coming up with this mission-method herb collection. She used to think that it was going to be hard to collect level 6 spiritual herbs. However, it seemed like as long as she could make enough good quality elixir pills, she could have all the cultivators on Fifth Heaven working for them.
“Hao Ren is pretty smart…” Xie Yujia thought to herself cheerfully. She went back to her cave abode and saw the 16 goose-egg sized night pearls Hao Ren and the Lu sisters placed on the roof, lighting up the interior.
“Um… put another curtain here.” Hao Ren nailed a piece of blue cloth at her cave entrance.
Zhao Yanzi got the robes from Fifth Heaven cultivators’ storage bags, and Hao Ren ripped them open and modified them into curtains.
Hao Ren put the stone table in the middle and laid four chairs around it. Then, a quiet and cozy study room had been created.
Hao Ren renovated the cave into their own little study room, and Xie Yujia looked down and laughed, thinking, “Although Hao Ren seems clumsy, he is quite good at setting the mood.”
“I asked Ma Lina to make copies of the study materials for Zhao Jiayi and the guys. This copy is for you, and I have highlighted all the key points while I was waiting for you.” Xie Yujia took thick copies of study materials from her bag and put them on the stone table.
Hao Ren flipped it open and saw highlighted parts right in the pages. His copy was the ‘advanced version’ made by Xie Yujia while the copy Zhao Jiayi and the guys fought over was the ‘original version’.
Also, Xie Yujia was studying with him, so she could answer his questions whenever he ran into one.
Lu Linlin and Lu Lili were a bit jealous when they saw how well-prepared Xie Yujia was. They regretted listening to Lu Qing and entering the Films Program, which was less stressful. If they were in the same program as Hao Ren, they could take advantage of the same material.
“Linlin and Lili, you guys can ask Yujia or me if you have any questions too,” Hao Ren said to them.
“Thank you, Gongzi!” They both nodded.
Lu Linlin wasn’t a petty girl. She realized that Hao Ren didn’t try to spy on them with his sword energies on purpose. Therefore, she wasn’t upset about it anymore.
Hao Ren, on the other hand, felt sorry about it, so he decided to bring them along for this final review session.
Lu Linlin and Lu Lili adored this ordinary life. They felt closer to Hao Ren as they acted more like mortals.
In the Lu sisters’ opinion, Hao Ren was more shy than dumb. Hao Ren knew about everything they had done, and they considered him cute for that.
In the meantime, a young girl sat on a hay-covered stone bed in her light-yellow silk dress. She was in the back mountain of the Sky Mountain Sect on Sixth Heaven, and she kept poking the two scarecrows in her hand with a small knife.
“Pervert! B*tch! I will cut you up when I get out of here!” She gritted her pearl-white teeth as she poked. “How dare you take my jade away! How dare you take my jade away!”
There was a layer of white light over her cave entrance. It was the array formation of the Sky Mountain Sect, Tiangang Lightning Array Formation.
She would get shocked as soon as she laid her finger on it, let alone getting through it.
At this time, Zhao Yanzi had the beautiful and smooth jade from Duan Yao around her neck. She was in a deep sleep, and she didn’t know that it was a pair of jades, and Duan Yao could locate her with the one she had left.
