Lin Yao stood in front of the mirror, carefully examining herself.

In the mirror, she was dressed conservatively in a round-neck T-shirt, a long-sleeved light jacket, and a high-waisted skirt that reached just above her ankles.

This outfit made her appear fresh and pretty, yet it did not overtly show off her figure.

It was the kind of versatile outfit that would make her boyfriend proud to be seen with her, her parents happy, and herself quite satisfied, taking into consideration the preferences of everyone involved.

“Jiang always had a low-key personality, he probably would want Yao’er to dress like this,” Lin Yao blinked and murmured.

In the past, Lin Yao dressed according to her own desires when she went out; whatever she wanted to wear, she wore.

Now, she had set her personal preferences aside, considering Jiang Cheng’s thoughts before her own.

Even though what she considered “Jiang Cheng’s ideas” were based solely on her own conjectures about him.

After getting dressed, Lin Yao did not rush to leave, but turned around to organize her room first. She tidied up the bed and wardrobe, which she had messed up while looking for her clothes.

“Even though Jiang hasn’t forgiven Yao’er yet, when he does, and we become Dao companions, surely he will manage the external affairs while Yao’er takes care of the home. So Yao’er must learn housework well in advance, to not worry him,” she pondered.

After she had tidied up the room, it was only half past ten.

But Lin Yao decided to leave anyway.

She wanted to make a good impression and did not dare to have Jiang Cheng wait for her.

Lin Yao arrived at the restaurant at only ten fifty.

Zhou Yiwen, who was plotting mischief, had not even arrived yet.

In the restaurant, only a few guests had come in scattered groups for the entrance-exam celebration banquet.

Lin Yao handed in the gift money at the entrance and then found an inconspicuous seat to sit down.

Although that was the case, she didn’t touch the bowls and chopsticks on the table and kept her eyes fixed on the entrance. The mere thought of seeing Jiang Cheng again soon made her heart pound with nervousness.

“Jiang, Yao’er will work hard to earn your forgiveness,” she whispered to herself.

At this moment, a resolute glint shining only in the eyes of a novel’s protagonist flickered in her gaze.

Compared to her oblivious peers, the still young Lin Yao seemed to have found the grand goal she could strive for throughout her life.

Lin Yao was not the only one eager to avoid delaying things; the diligent high school student Yue Ping was also among them.

Just past eleven, Yue Ping made his way near Weishou Restaurant.

Another block, a turn, and he would be at Weishou.

Yue Ping had a simple task according to Zhou Yiwen’s instructions, and as he no longer had any affection for Lin Yao, he felt no psychological pressure, remaining calm.

But his good mood did not last long.

As he stood waiting for the light to change at the intersection, he suddenly caught sight of a familiar figure!

It was her! The aloof female cultivator he had seen at Huafu that day!

Just as Yue Ping’s heart surged with excitement, he was shocked to discover that the female cultivator was not alone. There was a male cultivator by her side!

Jiang Cheng?

Yue Ping couldn’t believe his eyes.

Did Jiang Cheng know her?

This?

No, no, no!

Don’t jump to conclusions. They could be just ordinary friends.

It’s quite normal for ordinary friends to walk side by side.

Yue Ping comforted himself with these thoughts, but the way he stared intently at the female cultivator revealed the turmoil within him.

The light blinked green, and Yue Ping hurriedly charged out of the crowd, following Jiang Cheng and Liu Qing who were ahead.

However, being just a high school student, Yue Ping did not dare to follow too closely. He kept a distance of twenty or thirty meters behind Jiang Cheng.

Yue Ping saw Jiang Cheng and the female cultivator casually stopping to buy food and drinks from stores on the street, just like a typical couple would do.

But as he followed them all the way, the more he observed, the more at ease he felt.

Though Jiang Cheng and the female cultivator acted somewhat like a couple, their behavior was very proper, without any inappropriate embracing or hugging. Jiang Cheng didn’t even hold her hand.

Why doesn’t Jiang Cheng hold her hand?

Does he not want to?

Impossible!

It must be because he cannot!

Yue Ping put himself in Jiang Cheng’s shoes and thought it over. If he were in a relationship with the female cultivator, he knew he couldn’t resist holding her hand.

If he couldn’t resist, it made no sense for Jiang Cheng to be able to.

So the answer was simple, Jiang Cheng and the female cultivator were definitely not in a romantic relationship!

At most they were friends!

That’s why he couldn’t hold hands with the female cultivator!

Having figured all this out, Yue Ping felt relieved.

He was even hesitating now about whether he should help Zhou Yiwen later.

Perhaps he should just not help and let Jiang Cheng have Lin Yao, so Jiang Cheng would definitely not have the time to think about the aloof female cultivator.

Just as Yue Ping was weighing the pros and cons, he saw Jiang Cheng walking into the hotel diagonally opposite to the Weishou Restaurant with the female cultivator.

Yue Ping:

Huh?

Broad daylight, a man and a woman alone, entering a hotel…

Yue Ping’s eyes turned red with urgency, and he scrambled and rolled as he chased after them.

At the hotel entrance, Yue Ping overheard the conversation between Jiang Cheng and the receptionist.

“Sir, is this the single king-sized room you booked?”

“Mm-hmm, yes.”

“Alright, sir, here is your room card.”

“For the next three hours, don’t let any outsiders come to my room,” Jiang Cheng instructed.

“Certainly, sir.”

Three hours…

That really wasn’t strange…

Leaning against the hotel’s outer wall, Yue Ping’s face was bloodless, his heart felt like ashes.

He braced against the wall to stand up, limped and hobbled in the direction of home.

At that moment, he seemed to have aged ten years.

At such a young age, he was forced to experience the turmoil of emotions.

Tired.

Let it all fall apart.

Jiang Cheng led Liu Qing into the room, pulled back the curtains, revealing the Weishou Restaurant across the window.

Then, he moved the small round table and chairs to the window, opened the snacks he had bought along the way for Liu Qing, and arranged them on the table.

“Alright, that over there should end in at most three hours. You sit here for a while,” Jiang Cheng said.

“Mmm,” Liu Qing nodded.

From this window, she could directly observe what was going on inside the Weishou Restaurant.

If she was lucky, she could keep an eye on Jiang Cheng the whole time.

“I’m heading out now.”

“Okay.”

Having settled the monster comfortably, Jiang Cheng felt a weight off his shoulders.

The Weishou Restaurant was just across the street, and it was not yet the peak dining time, so Jiang Cheng walked leisurely, not in a hurry at all.

“Jiang Cheng?”

A surprised voice came from behind him.

Turning his head, Jiang Cheng saw it was his high school Principal Yang Lingbao.

“Principal Yang? What a coincidence.”

Seeing Jiang Cheng glance at the hotel, Yang Lingbao hastily explained, “I’m here to attend a promotion banquet. The restaurant didn’t have any parking left, so I borrowed the hotel parking lot.”

“Oh, sorry to trouble you.”

“No trouble, no trouble at all.”

Although Sun Qing had only met Yang Lingbao a few times.

But since Sun Yuan had to mingle in the high school, if he could connect with Yang Lingbao, that would certainly be for the best.

Unexpectedly, even Sun Qing didn’t anticipate that Yang Lingbao would really come through without any hesitation, willing to give him face by attending Sun Yuan’s promotion banquet in person.

“Jiang fellow student, have you decided on a university yet? I have a few old classmates in the Capital, all acquaintances. Maybe I could give you some advice,” Yang Lingbao said as they walked towards the restaurant together.

Although not interested in fishing, Yang Lingbao had heard about the Fishing Talisman.

With just a single move, this youngster stirred up trouble throughout Wuyue.

Dean Lei’s bet on Jiang Cheng was apparently not misplaced, after all, with Core Formation experience, comes shrewdness.

While Jiang Cheng chatted amiably with Yang Lingbao, Zhou Yiwen and the others outside the restaurant were already prepared.
