Chapter 228: Getting More and More Angry
Tianxing Lake.
One of the top ten scenic spots in Qingyang City.
Here, ancient trees are lush, and the scenery is beautiful.
There is also a large lake, which, at night, reflects the countless stars in the sky, making it exceptionally beautiful.
Reflecting the stars, that’s how the lake got its name.
Saturday, ten o’clock in the morning.
Luo Yan and others got off the school bus.
What caught their eyes was the bustling crowd.
Luo Yan couldn’t help but sigh.
The existence of the underground city truly preserved many things for humanity.
Such as going on outings.
On the surface, people worry about their livelihood every day.
No leisure, no mood for outings.
“Follow me.”
Donghuang waved a small flag, like a tour guide.
Sheng Yitian and Zi Yan felt embarrassed, kept their distance from him, pretending not to know him.
Although Donghuang was leading the way, soon the crowd was scattered by the people in the scenic area.
However, the hotel where they were staying tonight, the location and everything, were already on the phone.
Luo Yan wasn’t worried though.
He didn’t rush to meet up with his classmates.
He wandered around by himself.
Before long, he saw Bai Chou under a big banyan tree.
Luo Yan was about to go over when he saw a little boy running to Bai Chou, his little face anxious, not knowing what to say.
Walking a short distance, Luo Yan finally heard the little boy asking Bai Chou to help him get the balloon hanging on the big banyan tree.
“Sister, can you help me?” The little boy looked hopeful.
Bai Chou looked up and saw the balloon hanging on a branch about ten meters above the ground.
Covering her mouth, she whispered, “I can’t reach it, maybe you should ask someone else?”
The little boy looked disappointed, lowered his head, and nodded.
He asked a few more people and they all said no.
Seeing his sad face, Bai Chou couldn’t bear it and waved to the little boy.
The little boy ran over.
Bai Chou said, “I’ll help you get it down, but you have to promise to keep it a secret.”
The little boy hadn’t figured out yet what secrets to keep.
A huge hand with white gloves and eyes all over it appeared above his head.
The hand opened up, revealing the balloon hanging on the branch inside it.
The boy tried to reach for it, but all the eyes on the white gloves turned towards him.
He got scared and screamed, falling to the ground.
Bai Chou quickly took the balloon, removing the ‘Eerie: Illusionist’ spell.
A richly dressed woman ran over, asking, “Why are you teasing my little dragon?”
“Look, everyone, this big person pushed the child to the ground!”
Bai Chou said sadly, “I didn’t do it, I was just helping him get the balloon.”
“You are trying to defend yourself, but when you knocked over the child and laughed, it was obvious you are not a good person!”
Bai Chou was indeed smiling.
She had a sly smile on her face, with the corners of her mouth turned up in a strange way.
It dawned on her that she was holding a balloon in one hand, and hadn’t covered her mouth.
“You think you are the one being treated unfairly, don’t you?”
“Look at yourself, what serious girl would dye her hair like that.”
“Oh, wearing an eye mask too, playing quite recklessly.”
The mother made some sarcastic remarks about Bai Chou, and it caught everyone’s attention.
Many tourists gathered around, discussing Bai Chou and her actions.
Bai Chou quickly let go and covered his mouth with both hands.
Why is this happening?
I just wanted to help him.
I didn’t mean to make fun of anyone.
I just couldn’t control my facial muscles because of the “strange” influence.
I really… really shouldn’t have left the school after all.
Just then.
A figure flashed before Bai Chou’s eyes.
Without saying a word, the person…
A slap landed on the elegant woman’s face.
Smack!
With a sharp sound of the slap, the woman fell to the ground, a clear red handprint visible on her cheek.
She saw stars from the slap.
Just as she was about to react.
She met a pair of red eyes.
In those bright red eyes, she seemed to see blood flowing, countless bodies drifting, and hell!
She fainted.
She was scared faint by the murderous aura in those red eyes.
Bai Chou spoke, “Luo Yan, classmates.”
Luo Yan nodded gently and looked around.
Under his gaze, the onlookers subconsciously stepped back.
Luo Yan then retracted his gaze, took Bai Chou’s hand, and left the place.
The two arrived at a quiet lakeside spot.
Only then did Luo Yan let go of her hand.
“Thank you.”
Bai Chou whispered behind him.
Luo Yan turned around and looked at the girl covering her mouth, “Put your hand down.”
Confused, big question marks appeared in Bai Chou’s eyes.
Without explanation, Luo Yan firmly pulled Bai Chou’s hands away from covering her mouth.
Soon, the face of Bai Chou with a strange smile appeared in Luo Yan’s eyes.
Bai Chou wanted to cover up, but Luo Yan held her hands and she couldn’t move.
“Don’t look at me, Luo Yan.”
Bai Chou turned away, not wanting Luo Yan to see her like this.
Then Luo Yan said.
“Isn’t it beautiful?”
“Why are you always covering your face?”
Bai Chou paused for a moment.
She couldn’t help but look at Luo Yan.
Luo Yan let go of her hand and said, “Don’t worry about what others think, you’re not living for them.”
“If it were me,”
“I wouldn’t care how others see me.”
“They may not understand or agree.”
“But if anyone tries to use that against me,”
“I’ll make them regret it.”
A strange light gleamed in Bai Chou’s eyes.
Luo Yan looked around and his eyes landed on an ice cream truck.
“I invite you to have some ice cream, wait for me.”
He didn’t care if Bai Chou wanted to eat or not, he turned around and walked towards the ice cream truck.
A smile uncontrollably appeared on Bai Chou’s face again.
She tried to cover her mouth with her hand out of habit.
But halfway through reaching, she put her hand back down.
“Hahaha…”
“Luo Yan looked so cool just now.”
“Hahaha…”
Shortly after, Luo Yan came back with two ice creams and gave one to Bai Chou without saying anything.
Liu Ruohan happened to pass by and witnessed this scene.
Liu Ruohan looked surprised.
“Luo Yan, would actually treat someone to food?”
After her surprise, she pouted her lips bit by bit.
“How come he only treated Bai Chou?”
“Isn’t he clueless about being polite?”
“He really hit me hard when he punched me.”
“And he didn’t even spare a penny!”
“They’re actually inviting Bai Chou for ice cream?”
Liu Ruohan suddenly felt like she was spending money to take care of a younger boyfriend, only to catch him cheating behind her back.
The more she thought about it, the angrier she became.
She turned around angrily and walked off in the opposite direction.
They played at the ‘Tianxing Lake’ scenic area for two days.
Sunday evening.
Luo Yan and the others only returned to the academy.
In the evening, Luo Yan went to the rented warehouse.
After changing into a new set of clothes, putting on a cloak, and taking the long sword ‘Ring Dragon’.
They then went to the city center.
Following the address given by Zhang Ze that day, they found a tea house on Longjing Road.
The tea house had an ancient charm, was not very big, but had a unique flavor.
When Luo Yan walked in, he saw a tea master holding a teapot with a long spout, serving tea to the customers.
He pulled down his hood, walked to the counter, and knocked a few times.
A short chat.
Behind the counter, the tea house owner who was tallying up lifted his head and looked over.
