As night falls, the lights are on.

The entire city was bathed in light, dazzling and radiant, like a city that never sleeps.

Lu Jing stood quietly atop the high-rise building, overlooking the bustling and vibrant cityscape at night, a surge of pride welling up within him.

His gaze pierced through the towering skyscrapers and across the bustling streets, as if he could see every corner of the city.

Black wings slowly unfurled behind him, making a rustling sound, as if an ancient and mysterious melody was being played.

The wings did not feel light at all; instead, they gave a heavy feeling, as if they were carefully woven from thick iron sheets.

Each feather shimmered with the unique texture and luster of metal, cold and hard, exuding a chilling aura.

Lu Jing took a selfie and saved it to his phone.

Then he took a deep breath.

Silently chanting, "Fly! Fly! Fly!"

After I mustered up my courage...

Lu Jing took a deep breath, a resolute look flashing in his eyes.

He leaped with all his might, jumping off the edge of the tall building, his body plummeting rapidly through the air as the wind whistled past.

Just then, his wings suddenly unfurled, making a metallic scraping sound, as if they were tearing the air apart.

His wings flapped rapidly, lifting his body upwards.

"handsome……"

The voice just fell

Lu Jing subconsciously let out an "ah" sound, and his body suddenly plummeted.

The wings obviously cannot fly, but it seems that briefly taking off doesn't pose a problem.

Lu Jing quickly moved his hands to pull on the railing.

But it's unclear whether it was due to excessive force or too great an impact.

He ripped the edge of the railing off with his bare hands.

"..."

"Chase me? Did you see the birds in the sky?"

The boy looked up, puzzled, and asked, "What do you mean? If this bird lands within a minute, you'll agree to be my girlfriend?"

"What I mean is, if a birdman shows up within a minute, I'll agree to be your girlfriend!"

The girl replied.

Boy: (⊙o⊙)…

next second.

"Ahhh!!"

A figure with flapping wings fell from the sky and landed directly in the nearby trash can.

"Bang—!!"

Lu Jing crawled out of the trash can, wincing in pain, bent over, and clutching his back.

"Sorry to bother you."

With two pairs of large wings, Lu Jing quickly fled the place.

The two were left speechless.

..........

next day

At the dinner table, stepmother Gong Liying kept nagging.

They were talking about the recent rise in pork prices.

"Xiaoxue, is there a monthly exam today?"

Gong Liying suddenly changed the subject.

"Mm." Lu Xue nodded.

Gong Liying immediately beamed with joy.

Awakened individuals receive a bonus for each exam, even if it's a monthly exam, as long as they rank in the top few places.

Moreover, the amount is substantial, which can be considered a disguised form of financial aid for students with excellent academic performance.

"Do your best on the exam!"

Father Lu Yuanzheng said something.

"Mm." Lu Xue nodded.

"Lu Jing, you should also study hard for the exam and try to get into a second-tier university. You can't go to a vocational college."

Gong Liying glanced at Lu Jing again and gave him a word of advice.

To avoid Lao Lu feeling that he is favoring one side over the other.

"it is good."

Lu Jing nodded in agreement, just like always.

It didn't seem perfunctory, but it didn't seem to take it too seriously either.

"Pocket money."

Lu Yuanzheng took out two ten-yuan bills, which the brother and sister split equally.

Lu Jing stuffed the money into his pocket.

Gong Liying then started talking about everyday things, "Is Lao Lu working overtime again tonight?"

"Add! I'm so busy."

Lu Jing felt that even superheroes had their own family matters to attend to.

After breakfast, Lu Jing and Lu Xue left home together and headed towards the subway station.

Not long after they walked, Lin Mo's voice rang out behind them.

"Boss, wait for me!"

Lin Mo, with a piece of bread in her mouth, hurriedly ran over.

Lu Jing glanced back and thought to himself that this was a common scene in anime.

The late female protagonist, with a piece of bread in her mouth.

The next second, she should bump into the male lead at the corner.

Lin Mo ran over and rubbed her eyes.

I overslept today.

Lu Jing had long been used to Lin Mo's pestering.

Anyway, there's no way to get rid of them.

Ultimately, he still felt that this was a consequence of his past misdeeds.

This includes a large group of people in the group, such as Night Watchman Qilin and Azure Dragon.

"Boss, what tasks do I have today?"

"Do your best on the exam!" Lu Jing said casually.

"Boss, teach me some fighting techniques! I want to be as good as you!"

After experiencing yesterday's dungeon, Lin Mo's admiration for Lu Jing has only intensified.

"You're still too young."

"Hey~ Boss."

"Lu Jing, let's go!"

Lu Xue walked very fast ahead, while Lu Jing and Lin Mo could be heard talking behind her.

She glanced at him and noticed that Lu Jing hadn't followed her.

She stormed back, grabbed Lu Jing, and left.

"What's the rush?" Lu Jing said. "We won't be late."

"I need to go shopping! Let's hurry."

"Hey, wait for me."

Lin Mo quickly finished her bread.
