Dragon Raja: Reboot

Chapter 103 One Dares to Teach, One Dares to Learn

After a brief silence, Fingel naturally went to greet him. Chu Zihang tugged at Lu Mingfei's sleeve from behind and whispered, "What do we do now?"

Lu Mingfei was shocked. "You're still going to struggle even now? What a hero who never gives up!"

He tilted his head and lowered his voice, "Senior brother, are you kidding? What else can we do now? Are you going to dance with Fingel in front of Xia Mi, or dance with me in front of Xia Mi? Oh, and Zero is here too. Speaking of which, Zero is a renowned queen in the dance world. Why don't you try going up and inviting her?"

Chu Zihang's facial muscles twitched. Of course, he couldn't possibly invite Ling to teach him to dance under these circumstances. That wouldn't just be inexplicable; it would be something only someone with a nervous breakdown would do.

Why do I feel this is a conspiracy?

"Hiss—Senior brother, what you said really chills me to the bone. You chose the location, ignoring venues 1 and 2, and choosing dance hall number 3 instead. I'm starting to suspect that you orchestrated this all along!" Lu Mingfei said indignantly.

"Numbers 1 and 2 are booked tonight!" Chu Zihang said helplessly.

"Tch, who knows if there really is someone!" Lu Mingfei turned defense into offense, perfectly embodying the meaning of turning the tables.

Meanwhile, Fingel had already started chatting with Xia Mi.

"How about it, senior brother? You really treated me to this meal!"

"That's enough! I'll treat you to dinner next time you come to Beijing!"

"Okay, okay! My junior brother and I will clear the space for you later!"

After a brief exchange, Fingel composed himself and turned back to Chu Zihang's side.

He looked troubled: "This is a tricky situation. I've already gotten the information out of her; this encounter was purely accidental. My junior sister comes to the dance studio to practice every day, and we just happened to run into her tonight. Besides, she just arrived and is still warming up, so we can't just kick her out!"

Chu Zihang glanced at Xia Mi, who was stretching her legs, and whispered, "Add a thousand, figure something out."

Fingel exclaimed in anguish, "Junior brother, you're questioning my professional ethics! Do you think I'm the kind of person who makes money like this? Once the price is agreed upon, it shouldn't be changed. Business is about integrity! Besides, there are only three of us. If I manage to swindle her away, who taught you, this guy?"

He pointed to Lu Mingfei beside him.

Lu Mingfei's face twitched, and he thought to himself that he, Lu, would remember this grudge!

Before Chu Zihang could say anything more, a familiar voice suddenly came from the doorway behind him.

"Hey, what's going on? Is there a party tonight with all this noise?"

The three of them turned around together.

Chen Motong stood with her hands on her hips at the entrance of Ballroom No. 3, curiously peering inside.

The three of them suddenly fell silent.

Lu Mingfei looked at Chu Zihang. His senior brother had just said that appointments for the 1st and 2nd were already booked. Could it be...?

Chu Zihang took a deep breath and asked, "What are you doing here?"

Chen Motong rolled her eyes and said, "Shouldn't I be asking you that? What brings the Lionheart Club president to the dance hall? Oh, so he's here for Junior Sister?"

She recognized Xia Mi over there, and gave Chu Zihang a mischievous, meaningful look.

Chu Zihang frowned and asked, "Which dance hall did you book?"

"Number 2."

"That number 1..."

"Oh, it's Caesar. His lace dance troupe is recruiting." Chen Motong looked at Zero dancing alone, his eyes narrowing slightly. "That girl is very talented! Of the three of you, who came here for her?"

The three men had complicated expressions; it seemed their arrival tonight was truly unexpected.

Chu Zihang smiled wryly and said, "No, it was just a chance encounter."

Chen Motong smiled and said, "Guess whether I believe you or not."

"What's wrong? Did you see someone you know?" A familiar, lazy voice came from around the corner.

A striking blonde figure appeared before everyone, her white suit revealing perfectly shaped pectoral muscles.

Lu Mingfei and Fingel covered their faces with one hand.

This "unexpected encounter" is getting more and more lively, exceeding not only Chu Zihang's expectations but also far beyond their expectations.

Fingel nudged Lu Mingfei with his elbow and whispered in his ear, "Almost all the most influential people in the school are gathered here now."

Lu Mingfei also nudged Fen Gou and whispered, "Isn't that right? Five A-levels and one S-level, the future of the academy is all here."

"Hey! Don't I deserve a place? I used to be Grade A too!"

"Of course. You single-handedly lowered the average rating of this room by one level. Everyone else was rated A or higher, but now they're all rated B."

Chen Motong crossed her arms and complained, "You two can continue your public displays of affection back in your dorm. Don't do it in public."

Although the two of them tried to keep their voices down, everyone present was at least an A-level, and that was genuine, unlike Lu Mingfei who had an S-level rating but only an E-level physical ability.

Caesar shrugged and said, "Your relationship... is indeed impeccable. By the way, Lu Mingfei, I saw that video, you..."

Caesar's deep blue eyes narrowed slightly as he smiled and clapped his hands gently, saying, "Great! It seems I wasn't wrong about you. Keep it up, and you'll be the next student council president."

Lu Mingfei was a little stunned, feeling that his boss's smile was so annoying, so annoying, and so annoying!

The video in question likely refers to that auction.

Even when he's praising someone, he has an arrogant expression and his tone is full of appreciation from a senior, like "You're very good, I have high hopes for you."

This is quite different from the Caesar he knew.

I always felt like this guy was missing something...

Oh right, it's "despicable"!

really!

Caesar was incomplete without having been a gigolo!

Caesar's casual and indifferent gaze suddenly sharpened, and he frowned because he noticed that Lu Mingfei was looking at him with a sympathetic expression.

Damn it, what kind of look is this guy giving me? What do I have that deserves his sympathy?

Caesar unconsciously straightened his collar, looked down at his tie, and wondered where the mistake was.

Lu Mingfei felt a little regretful. At this moment, his boss was really not lovable at all; he was too proud and too sharp.

Caesar was the most eccentric of them all, without a doubt. Like a lion with a golden mane, he forever roamed his own plains, proud to the death. To his enemies, his pride was as dazzling as the sun and as hurtful as a thorn, always arrogant and unsettling. But to his friends, his pride was about never abandoning any comrade; he was ready to die for his justice at any time and would never abandon his comrades on the battlefield.

In fact, everyone here is a "brat". The senior brother is stuck in the rainy night six years ago, the dog is stuck in the ice sea incident back then, and Caesar is stuck in his deceased mother.

This is a bratty kid suffering from severe chuunibyou (middle school syndrome), and this bratty kid doesn't yet consider him and Chu Zihang as friends, so naturally, the unbreakable bond of male friendship doesn't exist.

It's a bit of a shame, but it's also understandable.

Starting over often means that everything you've experienced together will be erased, and your strong brotherhood will disappear as time goes by.

Lu Mingfei sighed softly.

"Why are you so sentimental and melancholic at such a young age?"

Chen Motong suddenly stepped forward, staring at Lu Mingfei suspiciously.

It seems... this loser is indeed different from before.

She turned to Caesar and asked, "What video were you talking about?"

Caesar raised an eyebrow and said, "Haven't you seen the most-viewed video on the Night's Watch forum?"

"I haven't been browsing the forums lately, I'll check them out when I get back." Chen Motong shrugged, then turned around and asked curiously, "I heard you found a girlfriend in Japan? Not bad!"

Lu Mingfei smiled and said, "How could I dare to embarrass you, sir?"

Chen Motong patted his shoulder with satisfaction and said with a smile, "Now I'm relieved!"

She pinched Lu Mingfei's face again, just like when she was combing his hair in that movie theater and pinching his face, turning that dejected face into a fox or a pig. This feeling was somewhere between that of a mother and a sister.

"What are you planning to do?" Caesar asked with a smile as his sharp gaze met that of his nemesis, Chu Zihang.

He glanced around the vast dance hall and saw Zero dancing alone, and Xia Mi warming up with her back to the others. He raised an eyebrow and said, "The Lionheart Society's ascetics are interested in dancing?"

Chu Zihang said calmly, "Yes."

Concise and to the point, straightforward and generous.

This response was completely unexpected by Caesar, yet it perfectly matched Chu Zihang's character, leaving Caesar speechless as he was about to mock Chu Zihang.

When the other party doesn't feel that this is something shameful or embarrassing, your mockery of the matter will have virtually no effect.

Caesar clearly understood this, and continued his attack from a different angle.

He raised an eyebrow and said, "Want me to teach you?"

To everyone's surprise, Chu Zihang's eyes flickered, and without giving Caesar a chance to back out, he nodded and said, "Alright."

Caesar: "..."

Caesar was caught off guard. His original intention was to disgust Chu Zihang. In his mind, Chu Zihang would never accept it so calmly. The most likely scenario would be that Chu Zihang would say no without expression, rather than saying "okay" so casually!

Has this guy been hanging out with Lu Mingfei and Finger for too long?!

Chu Zihang extended his hand expressionlessly, actually inviting, "Come on."

Two gasps of cold air were heard, one from the left and one from the right.

Fingel was dumbfounded, completely stunned by the scene. What the hell was going on?!

Lu Mingfei covered his face with his hands again, feeling an urge to squat down and bury his face between his knees.

That senior brother of mine... he's absolutely amazing!

Chen Motong tilted his head, his gaze shifting mysteriously between Chu Zihang and Caesar, before finally settling on Xia Mi, who was warming up, a thoughtful expression on his face.

Caesar glanced at his girlfriend and realized that Nono had no intention of helping him out. He had been the one to start this whole thing, so he absolutely couldn't back down now.

He snorted coldly, straightened his clothes, and braced himself to meet them.

"You dance the female steps?" Chu Zihang asked.

"Of course, it's you who will dance the woman's steps!" Caesar was furious. He believed that a man could be killed but not humiliated, and that making him dance the woman's steps was worse than killing him.

"Don't misunderstand, I mean, how do you plan to teach me?" Chu Zihang said calmly.

Caesar's forehead veins bulged as he coldly suppressed his temper and said, "Follow my rhythm, keep your head down and pay attention to my steps. I hope your talent in dance is worthy of your Super A-level title."

Chu Zihang, still sparing with words, simply said, "Okay."

Caesar said in a muffled voice, "Norma, music!"

"Received." Norma's voice echoed around. In this academy, this personalized central computer was everywhere; any loudspeaker could be her mouth.

then.

To Lu Mingfei and Finger's astonishment, the two grown men clasped arms together and stepped into the center of the dance floor. Caesar's steps were majestic and imposing, like a proud lion. Even though he was dancing with another lion, he still exuded an aura of dominance.

"Pfft..." Nuonuo's eyes crinkled as she covered her mouth, trying hard to suppress her laughter.

Even Zero, who was engrossed in his solo dance, silently stopped and gave the center of the dance floor to these two extraordinary men.

Zero's icy face remained expressionless, but after watching Chu Zihang and Caesar dance from the corner for a while, a ripple of emotion stirred in her eyes.

She turned and left.

"Senior brother, what's going on here?" Xia Mi appeared silently beside Lu Mingfei and Finger, dumbfounded at the strange yet inexplicably harmonious scene in the room.

Two large men were dancing on the dance floor. One looked down at his feet, his limbs stiff, barely keeping up with the other's steps. The other moved with large, sweeping movements, his steps bold and unrestrained, and his well-tailored suit couldn't hide his equally impressive chest muscles.

"Are they having a bullfight?" Xia Mi asked quipped. "Good evening, Senior Sister!"

"We meet again," Chen Motong said with a smile.

"Have you two met before?" Lu Mingfei asked casually, his eyes never leaving his senior brother and the boss.

There's no other reason than that, although the scene in front of me was quite shocking, it was so dazzling that I couldn't help but want to record it and keep it forever!

"I saw you at the library late at night a few days ago." Chen Motong was full of energy and secretly took out her phone to start recording.

midnight?

Lu Mingfei then turned around and glanced at Xia Mi.

If I remember correctly, one of my junior sister's purposes in coming to the academy was to obtain Constantine's dragon bone. Although she failed in her previous life, there's no guarantee that something unexpected might happen this time, so we still need to be careful.

For the time being, Constantine's dragon bone cross must not be damaged; he also planned to use Constantine's dragon bone to chat with Old Tang.

"Is that Senior Sister's boyfriend?" Xia Mi asked.

"Yes, that's the guy." Nono's smile grew even brighter as she looked at the two players who were working together so well on the field.

Lu Mingfei wanted to say something more, but then he saw Ling Chong wave at him.

"What's wrong?" Lu Mingfei walked up to Zero.

Ling Xiao's face remained expressionless as she handed him her phone.

The above statement said that she would deliver the serum to Lu Mingfei in a few days, as the originally scheduled delivery person had something come up.

Lu Mingfei glanced at the messages, smiled, handed the phone back, reached out and ruffled Ling's light blonde hair, and said gently, "Then I'll trouble you."

Zero suddenly froze.

She didn't expect Lu Mingfei to suddenly make such a move, just as she didn't expect that the people behind her would make her reveal her identity to Lu Mingfei.

This action... reminded her of someone.
