"Ye Qiu! Can I see you?"
……
Nottingham College, Dormitory 7.
Outside the bed surrounded by a screen stood a young man in black, with black hair and a somewhat thin appearance.
He was Tang San, who was about to graduate from Notting Academy.
He was standing outside a screen, his head bowed, his body bent, calling out in a gentle voice.
"Xiao Wu, are you ready? We should get going!"
Although he tried his best to restrain himself, he still couldn't hide the joy in his voice.
He was thrilled because Xiao Wu had actually agreed to go to Soto City with him!
Xiao Wu was indeed reluctant to part with him too! All his efforts hadn't been in vain...
While Tang San was still outside, fantasizing about the wonderful life he would have in the Soul Master Academy in the future.
Inside the screen, Xiao Wu had already packed her things; nothing was left on the bed except for the wooden planks.
She had grown into a graceful young woman, sitting on the edge of the bed, gently turning the bamboo dragonfly she had carefully maintained in her hand.
Tears welled up in Xiao Wu's eyes. She didn't want to leave; she wanted to wait here for Xiao Qiu to come back.
But Tang Hao's watchful gaze from the shadows forced her to leave with Tang San!
"Xiao Qiu~ You'll find me, right!"
Composing herself, she moved her hand and put the bamboo dragonfly into the soul tool that Ye Qiu had given her.
He got up and slowly walked out...
Chapter 144 Stray Cats
The Kingdom of Barak borders the Province of Fasno and is one of the four kingdoms under the jurisdiction of the Heavenly Dou Empire.
It borders the Star Luo Empire to the south, making it arguably the empire's gateway, hence its powerful military.
Soto, a city within its borders, is the most important city besides the kingdom's capital, Barak.
Even the Spirit Hall has established a Level 3 Spirit Hall here, which is known as the Barak Granary!
At noon, under the blazing sun, pedestrians continued to stream through the west gate of Soto.
A two-wheeled vehicle was slowly approaching the city gate.
The rickshaw was pulled by a black-haired boy dressed in black, who was over 1.7 meters tall and had twenty-four gems around his waist.
At this moment, he had a wide cloth strap hanging from his shoulder, and he was pulling a two-wheeled cart slowly forward, holding onto the arm of the cart with both hands.
His face was resolute, and no matter how much he sweated under the scorching sun, his steps remained steady, without uttering a sound.
Behind him, on a two-wheeled cart, sat a young girl, holding a lotus leaf in her hand to shield herself from the scorching sun.
A pair of pink rabbits swayed slightly above her head. Her delicate face was expressionless as she looked at the pink ring on her ring finger. Her beautiful eyebrows occasionally twitched slightly, as if she was thinking about something.
"Xiao Wu! Soto City is just ahead..."
Tang San's somewhat hurried voice came from ahead, and Xiao Wu also came to her senses and looked ahead.
Soto was indeed a large city, but it didn't interest her at all.
Her crimson eyes watched Tang San's retreating figure, and a mocking sneer crept onto her lips.
This guy actually wants to carry me on his back?
Haha... On such a hot day, wouldn't it be more comfortable to ride in a car than to have him carry you on his back!
The two entered the city, where two-wheeled vehicles were prohibited. Xiao Wu didn't pay much attention to this and nimbly jumped off the vehicle.
Her pink dress covered her developing body, and below her slender waist, her extremely long and shapely legs stretched out, making her look very tall.
She was a full half a head taller than Tang San beside her, making Tang San appear very ordinary and unremarkable in comparison.
"Thanks for your hard work!"
Xiao Wu's voice was flat, devoid of joy or sorrow. Although she was speaking to Tang San, she didn't even glance at him, instead surveying her surroundings.
"It's no trouble at all. We're classmates and friends, it's what I should do! Besides... it was my idea in the first place..."
Tang San quickly wiped the sweat from his forehead, waved his hand, and kept his eyes on her.
To be honest, he should be thanking Xiao Wu for turning down invitations from other intermediate academies and coming to Soto City with him.
"Xiao Wu, how about we find a place to stay first?"
"Casual!"
"Okay, let's look for it together..."
This is how Xiao Wu and Tang San get along. Although Xiao Wu doesn't really want to talk to him, she won't be too indifferent for her own safety.
Tang San, on the other hand, often has various little schemes to get closer to her.
Unfortunately, Xiao Wu doesn't buy into that. Over the years, she's only ever sought him out for sparring when she's in a bad mood; otherwise, she rarely pays him any attention.
As the two walked along the road, Tang San's gaze was quickly drawn to a three-story red building.
Although it might seem a bit pricey, he has accumulated some savings over the years thanks to his blacksmithing career and the subsidies from the Spirit Hall.
"Xiao Wu, why don't we go over there and ask?"
"Hmm?" Xiao Wu looked at the red building in the distance. As far as the color was concerned, it was indeed to her liking. Without thinking too much, she agreed.
"Can..."
……
While Xiao Wu and her companion were looking for a place to stay, Zhu Zhuqing had already arrived in Soto City and found a place to stay because she had promised to help Ye Qiu.
I originally planned to go out for a stroll and see if I could run into the person I was protecting.
Unexpectedly, by sheer coincidence, I ran into a stranger I had met several times before on the street.
At this moment, she was following a blond man with heterochromatic eyes with a cold gaze, watching him with one woman on each side, and a hint of mockery and sarcasm appeared on her lips.
The group was heading in the direction that resembled a rose – the Rose Hotel.
the other side.
As soon as Xiao Wu entered the Rose Hotel, she frowned.
The atmosphere here, especially the seemingly ambiguous look in the eyes of the front desk staff, made her very uncomfortable.
"Hello! Would you like two rooms?" Tang San asked the waiter.
"Excuse me, sir, we only have one room left!" The waiter stood up, looking at Tang San with a hint of envy in his eyes.
"One room?" Xiao Wu frowned, feeling increasingly uneasy.
"Yes, but don't worry, our hotel rooms are fully equipped and spacious, more than enough for the two of you!"
As the waiter spoke, he would occasionally cast knowing glances at Tang San.
I wonder if the pure and innocent Tang San actually understood it.
He turned to look at Xiao Wu, wanting to ask for her opinion.
Seeing this, Xiao Wu's eyes turned cold. Was there any need to ask about this?
What a wishful thinking!
"If you want to stay, you can stay there yourself!" With that, Xiao Wu turned and left.
"Xiao Wu...!" Tang San was about to follow when a few wicked laughs and frivolous voices came from the doorway.
"Hehe...looks like I'm in luck, actually managing to come across such a high-quality resource! Little girl..."
"What are you?! Get out of my way, Sister Xiaowu!"
Tang San rushed forward, his eyes suddenly turning fierce. He saw a man and two women standing at the door, blocking Xiao Wu's way.
The two women on either side turned out to be twins, around seventeen or eighteen years old, a little taller than Xiao Wu, heavily made up, with good figures, but their temperament was much more vulgar.
The man they were hugging looked to be young, around fifteen or sixteen years old, dressed in a platinum-gold outfit, with long, straight golden hair that reached his waist.
What's strange is that his eyes are two different colors.
One red and one blue, they look exceptionally appealing.
"Good dogs don't block the way, get out of the way! Or don't blame me for being impolite..."
Xiao Wu frowned and shouted coldly again, feeling disgusted by the other person's gaze.
“Hahaha…”
Xiao Wu's voice hadn't even stopped when a burst of laughter appeared.
"Sister, did you hear that? This little girl is actually being rude to Young Master Dai?"
"Haha...I'd like to see just how impolite she is, Young Master Dai!"
The twin sisters seemed to have heard a joke, giggling incessantly and swaying their bodies to tease Dai Mubai, their eyes sparkling with desire.
