Beast Taming: I have unique beast-collecting skills

Chapter 66 Facing Each Other Again

[Tianqiong District, near Wanming University]

Lin Su picked up her phone and replied "okay" when several more messages came in quick succession, clearly indicating that a last-minute replacement had been made.

[Sister! What time are you arriving the day after tomorrow? Should Dad and I pick you up?]

[Dad said he can't send a voice message with details, when are you free, sister?]

[By the way, sister, it's okay if you bring a lot of stuff. Dad said we can borrow a temporary storage space device; it can hold everything!]

So many voice chat messages—Lin Su paused the video call, feeling a bit of a headache.

She prefers things to be simple and straightforward, but children's excessive enthusiasm can sometimes cross the boundaries of appropriate social interaction, causing discomfort from a feeling of privacy being invaded.

Given that they had only met once, she found it easier to get used to her father's businesslike and emotionless attitude.

Ultimately, this is a transaction to repay a favor. Since interests have already been involved, what happens next can be discussed later, but it's best to keep your distance until the transaction is completed.

Thank you, no need to pick me up. I'll be in Tianqiong District on the morning of the 15th, or around noon on the 15th or 16th.

After receiving the reply, little Fu Yuchen, with his chubby face, handed the terminal back to his dad: "Dad, you can do it."

He sensed that his sister wasn't used to his way of speaking. It was fine when they were face-to-face, but she didn't want to talk to him at all during voice chat.

Fu Qingpu glanced at the messages and bluntly pointed out his son's problem: "Too enthusiastic, too much of a good thing."

If it weren't for a five-year-old child constantly saying "Dad said," he would subconsciously suspect that the other person had ulterior motives.

"Then what should I do?" Fu Yuchen pouted, fuming as he poked at the food in his bowl.

Fu Qingpu sighed.

Ever since he had a son, he's been sighing more and more often, and sometimes he really does feel like he's getting old.

"Just like you would with your Uncle Wu."

He clearly has a good sense of propriety with other people, but he is excessively enthusiastic towards Lin Su, whom he has only met once. She was only saved by chance and doesn't seem to have any aftereffects. How can there be such a big difference?

"Never mind then"—Fu Yuchen looked at the meat in his bowl. He was going to see his sister no later than the day after tomorrow. Should he lose some weight first?

At the same time that Lin Su and Fu Qingpu had arranged to meet, Evelyn's photo also made it to the tail end of the trending searches.

The blonde girl sat there pitifully, as if she had been abandoned, watching the departing figure.

The person in the photo wasn't identified, and the caption read "Lost in another battle." At first glance, it seemed fine, but combined with the gossip from the previous day, the implication was quite obvious.

Especially since there are two people in the silhouette.

In the comments section below, people are already discussing whether it has a special meaning, whether it's a case of childhood sweethearts falling from the sky or whether Young Master Qin started something and then abandoned it.

At the dinner table, Qin Minghao only saw the trending topic after being reminded by his cousin.

While picking up some food, Wang's older cousin said, "Let me tell you, don't think that a campus romance isn't a romance. If you mess around during school, no one will want you later. The image of a free spirit settling down for love isn't fashionable anymore."

This idiot is, after all, a delusional person who named his pet "Dragon Overlord." It's hard to guarantee that he doesn't dream of becoming Dragon Overlord himself. It's best to remind him early on.

Qin Minghao:

'

When did he start acting recklessly? He's still a junior high student. Can't this guy change his habit of spouting nonsense?

However, while yesterday's one-sided crush can be left unresolved, ignoring today's situation could lead to negative public opinion, and Lin Su's personal information would likely be dug up.

Qin Minghao turned to Wang Xu beside him: "Uncle, can you help me remove this?"

"Wow! You were so casual yesterday, how come you suddenly became so smart today?"

Wang Ruiyan looked surprised and reminded her, "Aveline is already prepared to boldly pursue you after being encouraged by netizens. If you continue to let things go, she might confess to you on the spot tomorrow, and it will be difficult to avoid her in public afterward."

He's too young to feel anything now, and netizens are mostly just teasing him. It's just high school romance, what's the big deal? But when he gets older or moves back to the central area, there will be a lot more of this kind of speculation, and ignoring it won't work at all.

Qin Minghao was speechless: "Was this your idea?"

"You don't appreciate kindness," Wang Ruiyan said disdainfully.

Wang Xu looked at the two of them with amusement and said, "Ruiyan has already spoken to them; it should be under control in about an hour."

.

He even specifically reminded him—Qin Minghao turned to Wang Ruiyan, who was slowly picking up food, and said, "Thanks."

Wang Ruiyan rolled her eyes at him.

It's best to avoid getting involved with people who have ulterior motives from the start. Especially with a lazy young master like my cousin, just let things unfold naturally and let the gossip, both true and false, fly by.

But then again, besides Evelyn, there's another girl—"Are you coming back for lunch tomorrow?"

"I'm not going back." Qin Minghao buried his head in his food.

Wang Ruiyan narrowed her eyes and asked gossipily, "Want me to pick out another outfit for you?"

Qin Minghao choked, "Forget it."

The chances of wearing the same outfit as someone else are too high.

4 month 14 day.

The final day of the tournament.

Lin Su arrived at the venue with Ali at 9:30 as usual and found that there were many more audience members than the previous two days.

The organizers also specially invited several online influencer coordinators to perform the opening act.

Lin Su watched the stage with little interest, her mind wandering. At this point, she was only interested in the spatial button.

Ahri hasn't shown any of her superpower skills yet, so she feels her chances of winning are still very high.

"Huanhuan————"

Ahri was also lazily lying on her beast tamer's lap.

It has played too many simulated battles in the past two days, and now it just wants to finish the game and change opponents as soon as possible.

Qin Minghao sat down next to the Ice Spine Dragon, glancing at the lifeless eyes of the man and the fox, and thought to himself, "Is this performance really that bad?"

"Shall we have lunch together?" he asked during a break in the program.

"Sure," Lin Su replied casually.

Based on the organizers' usual practices, her opponent in this match will either be Qin Minghao, whose pet is also at the beginner level, or Xie Siyuan, whom she has competed against but lost to. The former is more likely.

If he can still eat even after losing the game, then she certainly doesn't care.

After the performance, photos of the top eight contestants flashed on the large screen in the venue. As the image froze, the first pair of opponents was determined.

"The two remaining novice pets in this tournament actually faced off in the very first match!"

The host introduced with great enthusiasm, "A rare Dragon-type and Fairy-type battle: Ice Spine Dragon versus Moon Fox!"

Faced with severe type advantage, will the Ice Spine Dragon be able to surprise everyone and create a miracle by winning against type disadvantage, or will the Moon Fox be able to advance smoothly into the top four?

Qin Minghao and Lin Su are both new Beast Tamers who have awakened their own powers. What kind of wonderful performances will they deliver in the competition?
