Chapter 126 Is Jie unable to escape?
"Dai Qiu'er?"

"That's a really nice name."

On stage, Dai Qiu'er, with her heroic bearing and stunning beauty, almost perfectly captured Huo Yuhao's fantasy of his other half, even making him feel love at first sight.

It was as if some unseen thought was telling him that this girl was very important to him!
"Yuhao, what are you muttering about? The freshman assessment is coming up soon. Come to my house for dinner tomorrow afternoon since we have the day off!"

"Yuhao?"

"Yuhao?"

After asking several times without getting an answer, Chen Jie followed his gaze and immediately became angry.

I've known you for almost a month, and not a single new girl has caught your attention?

Damn it, men are all the same!

"Huh? Brother Jie, is something the matter?"

Feeling a chill creeping up behind him for no apparent reason, Huo Yuhao finally snapped out of his daze.

Chen Jie narrowed his eyes and asked with a forced smile, "What, you've taken a liking to that new guy?"

"No, no, Brother Jie, don't talk nonsense!"

Huo Yuhao's face turned red instantly. He hurriedly waved his hand in denial, but his eyes darted around guiltily.

"So you don't like it?"

"Not at all."

"Isn't that just liking someone?"

"Brother Jie, I..."

"Isn't that just liking someone?"

Chen Jie chuckled, his tone carrying a barely perceptible hint of sarcasm: "If you like her, just go for it. What are you afraid of? Haven't you always thought you were exceptionally talented, just lacking an opportunity?"

"Is...is this good?"

Huo Yuhao's mind was stirred by what he was said, his cheeks flushed red, his heart raced, and he even felt a faint sense of anticipation.

Perhaps... Brother Jie is right?

What if?
Seeing his naive, lovestruck look, Chen Jie enthusiastically encouraged him, "What are you afraid of? You're not bad-looking, maybe she likes your shy type? Trust me, go confess to her, she'll definitely say yes!"

"Really, Brother Jie?"

The flame of hope in Huo Yuhao's eyes was completely ignited.

"Of course, when have I ever lied to you, Brother Jie? If you're too scared, I'll help you, just watch me."

After speaking, before Huo Yuhao could stop him, Chen Jie stood up and strode towards the podium in full view of everyone.

"Chen Jie, what are you doing?"

Upon seeing this, Teacher Wang Yan frowned.

Dai Qiu'er also looked at Chen Jie, who walked up to her, with a blank expression.

Chen Jie deliberately spoke loudly: "Dai Qiu'er, on behalf of my brother Huo Yuhao, I'm confessing my feelings to you!"

"boom--!!"

The classroom fell silent for a moment, then erupted into a deafening roar of laughter!
"Pfft, hahaha! Huo Yuhao? You? Even a toad wouldn't dare to dream of eating swan meat!"

"My god, I can't laugh myself to death! Huo Yuhao, even if you don't have a mirror, you must at least need to pee, right? Can't you take a piss and look at yourself to see what you look like?"

"An eleven-year-old 'genius' whose soul power hasn't even reached level fifteen, a privileged kid who got in through connections, dares to dream of marrying Dai Qiu'er? Who gave you the courage?"

"Huo Yuhao thinks he's Dai Yuntian, that all girls will like him, hahaha!"

"Please, it's not that ugly."

"Pfft... You didn't let him off the hook either."

"..."

The jeers and jeers from the sidelines quickly turned Huo Yuhao's face red, but he still held onto a sliver of hope, gazing hopefully at the angelic girl on the stage.

"No! Please don't!"

Huo Yuhao prayed silently.

However, the reality is cruel.

Dai Qiu'er glanced at Huo Yuhao, and besides "ordinary," she had no other words to describe him.

Her expression was cold and aloof. Without the slightest hesitation, she uttered in an icy voice, "I refuse."

In an instant, the laughter and mockery in the classroom reached a new climax, with many people laughing so hard they were doubled over, slapping their desks and stomping their feet. Teacher Wang Yan quickly stepped in to maintain order and sternly reprimanded them.

Although the students outwardly suppressed their laughter, the barely suppressed smiles and ambiguous glances they exchanged were harder to conceal than AK's.

Huo Yuhao buried his head on the table, his expression extremely depressed, occasionally sobbing.

Fortunately, Chen Jie seized the opportunity and "timely" returned to his side, putting his arm around his shoulder and comforting him in a tone that said, "I understand you."
"Yuhao, don't be sad. It's not worth it for a woman like that! Take it easy. All that love and affection between men and women is fake and unreliable. Only the bond between us brothers is real and will never betray you!"

These words were like a wake-up call, instantly striking Huo Yuhao's most vulnerable spot.

He recalled everything he had experienced since arriving at Shrek.

Tang Ya's "betrayal," the tragic experience of her mother being seduced and abandoned by Duke Dai Hao of the White Tiger...

Yes, romantic love is the most unreliable thing in the world!

Huo Yuhao wiped away his tears forcefully and grasped Chen Jie's hand with deep agreement: "Brother Jie, you're right, feelings between men and women are all fake!"

Chen Jie was secretly pleased with himself. He pulled Huo Yuhao up, looking like a righteous hero: "Yuhao, don't mind them. You have a day off tomorrow night, come home with me. I'll treat you to some good food and drinks, and I'll also show you some 'good stuff' that will make you forget all your unhappiness!"

I had long heard that Chen Jie's home was very luxurious, so I imagined that the food he prepared must be delicious.

Since losing the support of Tang Ya and Bei Bei, Huo Yuhao has been eating the cheapest food available recently, though not impossible, but simply barely palatable.

After all, it is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but difficult to go from extravagance to frugality.

He was clearly tempted, yet still hesitant: "But Brother Jie, we have training the day after tomorrow, and if it's too late..."

Chen Jie patted his chest, a wicked glint in his eyes: "It's okay, my house is big. If you get tired of playing, just sleep at my place. Besides, I have some really delicious big chicken cutlets. Are you sure you don't want to try them?"

"Hao Dudu Chicken Cutlet, one bite and the juices are dripping!"

"it is good."

Listening to Chen Jie's enticing description, Huo Yuhao subconsciously swallowed.

Ultimately, the desire for food outweighed that slight hesitation and rationality.

……

The bell rings.

Before the noise in the classroom had completely subsided, several boys who considered themselves to be quite attractive couldn't contain themselves and gathered around the seat of the new "class beauty," Dai Qiu'er.

Among them, a boy named Zhou Wei was the most enthusiastic.

He came from a good family, his martial soul was a decent Gale Wolf, and his level 23 soul power was considered above average in his class. He felt he was qualified to show off in front of the beauty.

Seeing this, the other boys also rushed over, their faces beaming with ingratiating smiles.

"Dai Qiu'er, you must be unfamiliar with the area since you just arrived at the academy, right? Would you like me to show you around?"

"Yes, yes, I know the cafeteria, training ground, and library like the back of my hand!"

"I know a place with particularly beautiful scenery..."

Dai Qiu'er frowned slightly; she had no interest in this kind of tedious flattery.

But then I thought, isn't this a good opportunity to find out about "Dai Yuntian"?

The task assigned by the Lord and Uncle Ditian is important.

So, Dai Qiu'er suppressed her impatience, raised her cool eyes, glanced at the group, and finally looked at Zhou Wei, who seemed the most enthusiastic, and nodded lightly: "Okay."

Zhou Wei was overjoyed, feeling that his outstanding charm had overshadowed everyone else. He quickly waved for the other dejected boys to disperse, puffed out his chest, and eagerly led the way:

"Dai Qiu'er, this way please. Let me show you Shrek's iconic Poseidon Square!"

Walking along the tree-lined campus paths, Zhou Wei put in his best effort.

He spoke eloquently about the college's glorious history, occasionally interjecting with a few anecdotes he thought were interesting, trying to make the beauty smile.

In his speech, he never failed to subtly mention his family background, talent, and familiarity with the academy, thus elevating himself.

Dai Qiu'er listened absentmindedly, occasionally giving a perfunctory "hmm".

She glanced around aimlessly, her mind already far away.

This made Zhou Wei feel powerless, like punching cotton, but he was not discouraged. He just felt that the goddess was arrogant and needed more patience.

After walking around for a long time, it seemed the topic was about to turn to the boring college buildings again.

Seeing Dai Qiu'er's lukewarm response, Zhou Wei became anxious and racked his brains to find common ground.

Suddenly, a thought struck him, and he remembered that girls seemed to love hearing gossip, so he said:
"Dai Qiu'er, you're new here, so you might not know, but we have a very popular student in our class named Dai Yuntian. He's incredibly talented!"
