Huh, just a student who knows a bit of martial arts, Leng Xuan truly didn’t take Gao Jun seriously. Compared to the aloof young man he had seen outside the classroom, who only showed his back, Leng Xuan felt that Gao Jun was far inferior. And even for the aloof young man, Leng Xuan didn’t really have much respect for him, he only felt a kind of kinship that piqued his curiosity.
"This Gao Jun is really too pretentious, acting all high and mighty, he’s so annoying," Li Mengjie said resentfully. After all, it was Gao Jun’s restraint that made her miss out on a good show.
Ling Xuejiu rolled her eyes and said, "All you care about is watching a good fight, why don’t you just turn into a guy, huh? Always wanting to see people brawl, tsk!" She shook her head, wearing an expression that suggested Li Mengjie was beyond help.
"Heh heh, if I turned into a guy, Xu Renjie would probably die of anger!" Li Mengjie stuck out her tongue and laughed.
Ling Xuejiu asked, "Why?"
"Because I’d be sleeping with you every day!"
"If you were a guy, I certainly wouldn’t let you sleep with me."
"Then I would force you!"
"You little devil, are you asking for trouble!"
"..."
The morning passed by quickly, and Ling Xuejiu left hand in hand with Li Mengjie. But as soon as they stepped out of the teaching building, Li Mengjie suddenly remembered something and said, "Ah, Xue Jiu, we forgot about Cold Bodyguard. What should we do about treating him to a meal?"
"I say, Xiao Jie, are you okay?" Ling Xuejiu was fuming and said, "Why do you care so much about him? Could it be that you’ve really taken a liking to him?"
Li Mengjie blushed, an uncommon occurrence for her, and said cheerfully, "I’m just thinking of your best interest, after all, he’s your bodyguard."
"Don’t bring it up; it infuriates me just to mention it! Let’s just go eat, he’s not an idiot or mentally challenged, can’t he just go to the cafeteria to eat on his own?" Saying so, Ling Xuejiu hailed a campus taxi and got in, telling the driver to head for Tenglong Hotel.
With no other choice, Li Mengjie followed her into the car.
The big cafeteria is where those students without much money go to eat, while those kids from wealthy official families usually dine at the Tenglong Hotel run by the school.
Just after class had ended, Leng Xuan, after taking a trip to the restroom, came out only to find that Ling Xuejiu was nowhere to be found. He couldn’t help but feel a bit worried. However, he quickly reassured himself by remembering that the novice cultivator’s Magical Treasure was now in his possession. For him to refine another Magical Treasure was not an easy deed; at least, it wasn’t something that could be accomplished in the short term. He then breathed a little easier.
As he was wondering how to resolve his lunch dilemma, suddenly someone came out from the restroom—it was Zhao Xiaotian. He hurriedly approached, saying, "Brother Xuan, you’ve just arrived today and probably don’t know where to eat, right? Heh heh, let me invite you for a meal, consider it a welcome to brush away the dust of your journey!"
Seeing Zhao Xiaotian’s enthusiasm, Leng Xuan didn’t refuse. After all, he was worried about finding someone to show him the way to the cafeteria. He replied, "Thanks for the offer, do you know where the cafeteria is?"
"It’s very close to our Number One Teaching Building, just follow me," Zhao Xiaotian said.
The big cafeteria was built behind a basketball court, and as Leng Xuan and Zhao Xiaotian passed by, they suddenly saw a few thug-like male students harassing a girl in a school uniform, whose face was not visible.
Upon seeing this, Zhao Xiaotian immediately tugged at Leng Xuan’s sleeve, signaling him to take a detour, for he recognized that among those thugs, their leader was none other than one of the ’Top Five Bullies’ among the students, Huang Xiaojun.
