Armor: Expelled and transformed into armor in front of the entire school

Normally, Duanmu Yan would never reason with this kind of person.

But the fact that she could say those things made him want to swear.

He only regretted that the woman in front of him wasn't Oxel, otherwise he would have torn her to pieces long ago.

He shook his head and sighed. How long had it been since he'd lost his temper like this?

The last time was probably in Huangni Ridge when Ke Sheng became Ouke.

Sigh, forget it, why bother getting angry with someone like that?

Duanmu Yan glared at her and then strode away, leaving Anna alone trembling in fear.

A series of words made her eyes red and tears welled up in them.

She had never felt this way before—sadness? grief?

I was actually made to cry by a man's words; it was the first time.

This was the first time a boy had treated her like this, completely disregarding her.

She knew that what she said was excessive, and that she did not mean to look down on poor people.

She just wanted to give Duanmu Yan a blow and dampen this man's arrogance.

She wanted him to fawn over her like any other man.

But I never expected him to be so fierce and to say such hurtful things.

She leaned against the wall, sobbing, tears blurring her vision.

Suddenly, a figure appeared in front of her.

Duanmu Yan!

She looked up at him through teary eyes, and for some reason, she desperately wanted this man to comfort her, even if it was just a simple "Don't cry."

Duanmu Yan raised her hand and slowly moved it closer to her cheek.

Anna's heart pounded. Unlike usual, she felt no repulsion; instead, she pressed her face close to his palm.

The warm palm pressed against her face, and she felt immense joy, just like when she received a new birthday present as a child.

Suddenly, she felt a force of impact.

"Get out of the way!"

Duanmu Yan nudged her with her hand, and Anna stumbled and almost fell flat on her face.

He looked at the rental ads on the wall, nodded, and took out his phone to write down the numbers.

Anna wiped away her tears, looked at Duanmu, and whispered, "My house is quite big, if you don't mind...we can..."

Duanmu Yan put away her phone and turned to leave. "No need. I'm not used to living in your rich people's houses. I still prefer to sleep in my own doghouse."

Anna quickly grabbed his hand and mumbled, "I was wrong, I'm sorry..."

Duanmu Yan immediately pulled her hand away, "If you're wrong, just correct it. There's no need to hit me!"

He shook his head and walked away again.

Anna watched his departing figure, feeling a strange sense of reluctance.

She put her hands to her mouth and asked loudly, "What's your name?"

Upon hearing this, Duanmu Yan's eyes darted around, and she curled her lips into a smile, saying, "Xu Tingfei!"

"Xu Tingfei? Xu Tingfei..."

...

Duanmu Yan was once again proud of her intelligence and sent that annoying woman to find that annoying man.

Kill two birds with one stone!

It would be hilarious if these two oddballs got together and started fighting like dogs.

"Hello?" Duanmu Yan dialed the number on the rental advertisement, and a familiar female voice came from the other end of the line.

"Hello, how can I help you?"

Duanmu Yan asked, "I'm here to rent a house. Is this your place for rent?"

"Oh, yes, yes, would you like to come and take a look now?" came the excited reply from the other end of the phone.

"Um, is it convenient?"

"Hey convenient, do you know Huanhuan Teppanyaki? Come find me here."

Huanhuan Teppanyaki? Isn't that the place we went to yesterday?

Duanmu Yan glanced at her phone. This voice... and that landlady's voice... could it be...?

"Hello? Are you still there?"

"Oh, I know, I'll be right there," Duanmu Yan replied.

It wasn't far from Huanhuan Teppanyaki Restaurant, and Duanmu Yan arrived ten minutes later.

As soon as I entered, I heard people talking.

"Welcome. When do you think I'll reach Brother Duanmu's level of strength?"

Wu Gang looked at her and prayed that she would give him a satisfactory answer.

Welcome stroked his chin and thought for a moment, then said, "Xiao Gang, I think you've made a mistake."

"A mistake? What's wrong?" Wu Gang scratched his head, puzzled.

"You should first think about whether something is possible to do, and then consider how long it would take to do it." A serious answer is welcome.

"Huh? Welcome? Seriously? How can you insult your teammates like that?" Wu Gang complained.

Seeing Wu Gang's disappointed expression, he laughed and said, "Just kidding, Xiao Gang. I believe you'll surpass him one day."

Wu Gang's expression softened a little upon hearing this, but then his face tightened again. "I'm going to relieve myself," he said, and quickly ran inside.

Welcome shook his head and muttered, "If that Nawa is really as powerful as Xiaogang said, then I must do everything I can to win him over."

"With such a powerful force, the battle against the Netherworld Demon will be much easier."

"And the Xingtian Armor..."

Knock, knock, knock. "Hello, are you renting out a house?" Duanmu Yan knocked on the door, walked into the shop, and asked.

Welcome to look at him, her eyes lighting up as she said, "Hey, I feel like I've seen you somewhere before."

Duanmu Yan smiled and said, "Oh, I had a meal here a couple of days ago, so we naturally met."

Welcome! She exclaimed with sudden realization, "I see!" Then, delighted, "Are you looking to rent a place?"

Duanmu Yan nodded in response.

"Since we've met twice, we must be destined to meet. The fact that you were able to choose this house for me shows that you have excellent taste."

“My house is well-ventilated from north to south, warm in winter and cool in summer, and I even had a master calculate its feng shui.”

"The area directly above my room is aligned with the trajectory of Cupid's star, so its love luck is particularly strong, and someone as handsome as you..."

She went on and on, praising her house to the skies.

Although interrupting someone is a bit impolite, Duanmu Yan simply couldn't stand it anymore.

"Stop, stop—just tell me how much the rent is per month."

He had just seen an advertisement for a three-bedroom, one-living-room apartment with a very low rent, and the details could be discussed in person, so he chose this place.

But judging from how hard the proprietress is promoting her house, the price is probably not low.

Yang Huanying thought for a moment and said, "The rent is 1500 a month."

"1500? You call that an ultra-low rent?" Duanmu Yan stared at her, questioning her.

Welcome chuckled and said, "You know how high prices are here. Mine is considered very low. Think about it, this is a three-bedroom apartment!"

Duanmu Yan thought about it and it seemed to make some sense.

He then asked, "No one's renting with me, right?"

"How is that possible? If I rented out a three-bedroom apartment to only one person, I'd go bankrupt for 1500 a month!" Yang Huanying exclaimed, her mouth agape.

What the hell does your three-bedroom apartment have to do with me?

Welcome said with a smile, "With you, there are three of us. It would be great to chat, play cards, or have a couple of rounds of shovel together, wouldn't you say?"

"You old man!" Duanmu Yan's face darkened. "Deception, blatant deception!"

He turned to leave, but Huan Ying quickly blocked his way, saying, "Hey, hey, don't go yet! The price is negotiable."

"How about I give you a discount of fifty yuan per month, making it 1450 yuan?"

Duanmu Yan bypassed Yang Huan and strode out, eager to leave this place that had caused him so much pain.

My monthly salary is only 3000 yuan, and half of that goes to rent. How am I supposed to survive?

"Tch, go away, I don't even want to rent it to you." Yang Huanying stuck out her tongue at him.

"Ah! That feels so good!" Wu Gang exclaimed as he walked out of the toilet.

Suddenly, I saw someone walk out the door. The hairstyle and gait looked very familiar; it seemed to be...

"Brother Duanmu!"

Chapter 11 You came and now you want to leave?

"Brother Duanmu? What Brother Duanmu?" Yang Huanying asked.

Wu Gang ignored her and ran out quickly.

"What? How rude." Yang Huanying snorted, and then she heard the conversation between the two.

"If you're renting a place, why not rent here? I live here too, so we can keep each other company."

"Ugh, don't even mention it. That landlady is such a rip-off; I can't afford the rent."

As he spoke, Wu Gang pulled Duanmu Yan back into the house.
