Chapter 15, Tang San's Forgiveness

Tang San walked unsteadily toward Xiao Wu's dormitory.

He walked very slowly, and with each step, his wounds throbbed with pain. But in order to find out what was wrong, Tang San gritted his teeth and suppressed the pain.

At Shrek Academy, the boys' and girls' dormitories are quite far apart, so it took Tang San a long time to finally arrive.

"Xiao Wu, Xiao Wu, are you there?"

Tang San knocked on the door.

There was no response.

Tang San's heart sank instantly.

Just then, a figure passed by Xiao Wu's house.

It's Ning Rongrong.

"Hey, Tang San, what are you doing here? Has your injury healed?"

Ning Rongrong asked in surprise.

Tang San shook his head and said:

"I'm looking for Xiaowu, Rongrong, have you seen Xiaowu?"

Ning Rongrong shook her head upon hearing this.

"No, isn't she home?"

Tang San shook his head.

Seeing that Tang San's injuries had not yet healed and he was unable to move easily, Ning Rongrong thought for a moment and then said:

"How about this, I'll go find Xiaowu with you. I was just thinking of asking her to go shopping with me!"

Because of Tang San's injury, Shrek Academy had a rare few days off, and Ning Rongrong's playful mood returned.

Tang San and Ning Rongrong then went to find Xiao Wu together.

After a brief search, nothing was found.

The sun was high in the sky; it was almost noon.

Suddenly, a figure appeared and walked from a distance.

But then they saw a person walking with disheveled hair, unsteady steps, and a weary body. It was none other than Xiao Wu.

Tang San hurriedly stepped forward.

"Xiao Wu, where did you go!"

Xiao Wu flinched upon seeing Tang San, her eyes darting away.

"Um, I'm just going to wander around."

"Just browsing around?"

Tang San simply couldn't imagine a more flimsy reason than this.

My hair is all messy from walking around, my steps are unsteady, and I look like I'm about to collapse from exhaustion.

Recalling the sounds he vaguely heard while he was unconscious yesterday, the truth of an incident slowly emerged before Tang San.

That's because Xiao Wu was exhausted from being abused and had to leave that person's house.

And this direction is... Mengbei!

Tang San was stunned, as if struck by lightning, and sat down on the ground with a thud.

Xiao Wu was startled. Already feeling guilty, she was even more afraid of being discovered, so she quickly made an excuse to leave.

"Well, I have to go now. Third Brother, don't overthink it. I didn't come from Meng Bei's house. No, I mean I have nothing to do with Meng Bei."

With that, Xiao Wu quickly left.

Xiao Wu left, leaving Tang San lying on the ground, his face contorted in pain.

Ning Rongrong is another person suffering in the same way.

Xiao Wu's attempt to deceive herself was too obvious; it was clear she had just come from Meng Bei's house.

But Ning Rongrong simply couldn't believe her relationship with Meng Bei...

I was right first, why?

"No, I have to go find Meng Bei and get to the bottom of this!"

With that, Ning Rongrong hurried toward Meng Bei's home.

At this moment, Tang San struggled to get up, as if he had lost the sense of pain, and burst out with unprecedented speed.

"I'll go too!"

The two rushed into Meng Bei's dormitory and found him taking a shower in the yard with his upper body naked.

Real hammer!

Why take a shower at this time if it's not after strenuous exercise?

Ning Rongrong burst into tears, saying with a wronged expression:

"Meng Bei, what's going on between you and Xiao Wu? Did you sleep with her? Tell me!"

[Ding! Side quest triggered!]

[Side Quest: Ning Rongrong's Grievance - I haven't even done *that* yet, why should Xiao Wu go first? Please comfort the aggrieved Ning Rongrong.]

[Task Difficulty: Easy]

[Mission Reward: Advanced Soul Tool]

At the same time, Tang San's eyes instantly turned red upon seeing this scene.

"Meng Bei, how dare you bully Xiao Wu! You've already committed suicide!"

[Ding! Side quest triggered!]

[Side Quest: Tang San's Forgiveness. Tang San has guessed about your relationship with Xiao Wu. Please obtain Tang San's forgiveness.]

[Mission Difficulty: Nightmare]

[Mission Reward: Second Martial Soul Unlocked]

Meng Bei was shocked. Had his affair with Xiao Wu been exposed so quickly?

Now his only option is to kill Tang San and then join the Spirit Hall.

However, Meng Bei quickly calmed down. He noticed the word "guess" in the system task description, which meant that Tang San was only guessing, not having any concrete evidence. Therefore, there was still room for maneuver.

At this moment, Tang San, enraged, rushed towards Meng Bei. However, there was a missing piece of floorboard in the middle, and Tang San, who was already unsteady, tripped and fell to the ground.

Seeing this, Meng Bei quickly went to help Tang San up, and explained at the same time:

"Third Brother, you've misunderstood. It's not what you think!"

As they were talking, Ning Rongrong ran over and buried herself in Meng Bei's arms, patting his body repeatedly in a wronged manner.

"Why, why, you big bad guy! You treated me like that, why did you go to Xiao Wu? What do I lack compared to Xiao Wu? Waaaaah~"

Ning Rongrong cried, feeling wronged.

This startled Tang San, who was standing nearby.

He had no idea that Ning Rongrong and Meng Bei had such a relationship.

Seeing Ning Rongrong looking aggrieved, Meng Bei quickly comforted her in a soft voice.

"Sister Rongrong, you've really misunderstood. Xiaowu did come to my place, but there's more to it than meets the eye. We really have nothing to do with each other. She's my sister, how could I possibly have something like that with her?"

Tang San believed this to some extent, since he didn't have any concrete evidence and he didn't want to believe that Xiao Wu would betray him. So when information favorable to Xiao Wu appeared, he instinctively chose to believe it.

However, Ning Rongrong shook her head, refusing to back down.

"I don't believe it! I don't believe it!"

Ning Rongrong cried and made a fuss, feeling extremely wronged.

Seeing this, Meng Bei thought to himself that he had no choice but to deal with Ning Rongrong first.

He lifted Ning Rongrong's chin and then directly covered her mouth with his kiss.

"Hmm~"

Ning Rongrong immediately stopped crying and obediently let Meng Bei hug her.

[Ding! Side quest complete. You have obtained the Advanced Soul Tool: The Emperor's New Clothes.]

"Okay, sweetie, that's not how it is. Let me explain."

"Well, I'll believe you for now."

Ning Rongrong and Meng Bei reconciled.

Tang San watched in stunned silence.

He never expected that Meng Bei and Ning Rongrong had already progressed to this point.

Then Meng Bei explained:

"Third Brother, as you can see, Rongrong and I are already together. Since I already have Rongrong, why would I go looking for Xiaowu? Besides, even if I did go looking for Xiaowu, Sister Xiaowu would never do that kind of thing with me. You've really misunderstood."

Tang San was already seven or eight parts convinced by what he heard.

Indeed, as Meng Bei said.

Ning Rongrong is no less capable than Xiao Wu in any aspect, and her family background is even far superior to Xiao Wu's. Meng Bei has absolutely no reason to do this.

Moreover, Meng Bei was right about another point, and Tang San firmly believed that Xiao Wu would never betray him.

but……

Tang San still had doubts in his mind.

The way Xiao Wu looked just now, and her obviously fake reason, why did Xiao Wu lie to him?

Tang San then asked Meng Bei about his doubts.

Upon hearing this, Meng Bei knew that this was the most crucial step. As long as Tang San's doubts were dispelled at this step, the system's mission would be essentially complete.

After thinking for a moment, Meng Bei had a plan in mind.
