Seeing that Hao Ren was chewing on his bun, Su Han couldnât help but nudge him. âSay something.â
In the studentsâ eyes, Su Han was touching a guy on purpose, and it made them so surprised that their mouth opened wide.
Hao Ren kept on eating, deciding not to fall for Su Hanâs new trap.
âI have a way to get into the Nine Dragon Palace, but I need you to lead the way. The palace could be opened by the Four Ocean Dragon Clans and has a time limit of six hours. But there wonât be any time limit if we sneak in. Then, we can share the treasures 50/50.â
Seeing how Hao Ren was, Su Han directly put everything on the table.
âNo time limits? 50/50?â Hao Ren finally looked up with half a bun in his mouth.
âIâll give you a week to think about it. The Nine Dragon Palace doesnât belong to East Ocean anyway. If you get something, it will be East Ocean that benefits.â Su Han stood up with the tray and returned it at the door. Then, she left the cafeteria.
Hao Ren sat there and considered if the deal was worth it. He would be providing the information, and Su Han had the strength. They could share the elixir pills, treasures, and techniques equally. It did sound very tempting.
After a while, Hao Ren stood up, returned the tray, and left the cafeteria as well.
When he went back to the dorm to get his books for class, the guys had already left; he had no idea that the jog and breakfast in the morning took so much time. When Hao Ren rushed to the Academic Building with his textbooks, it was already time for class.
Hao Ren hesitated at the door of the classroom. Zhou Liren, who was sitting in the back row, noticed Hao Ren at the door and waved at him.
He pointed at his mouth and then the empty seat beside him, hinting that the teacher was taking the attendance.
Hao Ren bent his back and tried to sneak into the classroom from the back door, heading toward the back row where the guys were.
âHey! You are late, and you are trying to sneak in?â The teacher, âWhite Tiger,â who was famous for being strict, lifted his arm, pointed at the back row and shouted.
Hao Ren had no choice but to turn around in embarrassment and stand up straight.
âNow that âWhite Tigerâ caught you, you are screwed, Ren. I forgot to tell you that you werenât here last time he took attendance too. You will probably fail this courseâ¦â Yu Rong whispered to Hao Ren from the side of the aisle.
Hao Ren somehow felt like he was taking pleasure in his misfortune.
Xie Yujia turned back to look at Hao Ren with worry from the front row.
âWhatâs your name?â The teacher in his white suit went through his list with a pen in his hand as he stared at Hao Ren.
âUm⦠Hao Ren,â Hao Ren gritted his teeth in embarrassment and answered.
This class, Engineering Theories, was jointed, and Class One and Class Two took it together. Right now, all the students from both classes, familiar with Hao Ren or not, were staring at him.
âHao Renâ¦â The teacher slid the pen down his list and asked, âYou werenât here for the last class either, right?â
âLast class⦠I had some family issuesâ¦â Hao Ren answered. He was standing in the aisle in the back of the classroom like a model for everyone to look at.
The teacher finally spotted Hao Renâs name on the list. Then, he noticed a gold star marked in front of Hao Renâs name and remembered something. His stern face immediately softened. âOh, Hao Ren. Go ahead and take a seat. Itâs alright to be a bit late.â
All the students from both classes were stupefied.
They had all learned about âWhite Tigerâsâ temper after a year, and they wouldnât have given him this nickname if it werenât for his bad temper and interest in scolding students.
Hao Ren couldnât react in time, and he stood still.
âWhy are you still standing? Find a seat and sit down for class,â the teacher said. Although he sounded like he was rushing Hao Ren, the soft tone was nowhere near his usual âWhite Tigerâ tone!
âOhâ¦â Hao Ren squeezed into the seat beside Yu Rong who was stupefied.
âAlright, letâs go on with our attendance! Yu Rong!â âWhite Tigerâ shouted as he noticed that the students all seemed a bit stunned.
The shout dragged everyone back to reality.
âHere, here, here!â Yu Rong put his hand in the air and answered three times in a row. He looked at Hao Ren with a strange expression. âThis guy is something else. Not only did he get the principalâs granddaughtersâ interests, but the teachers also give him special treatment. When can I get even half of what he has⦠Either one of the twins would work for meâ¦â he thought.
Hao Ren was confused himself. He rushed to class today since he had missed two days of classes. However, everything was fine once he mentioned his nameâ¦
He had no idea that the note from Lu Qing put a special mark beside his name on the list of all his teachers. The teachers all knew that special treatments should be given!
Not only Hao Ren, Lu Linlin and Lu Lili also had this kind of special treatment. However, their gold stars were in the teachersâ hearts instead of on the name list!
It was public information that the twins were granddaughters of the Vice-Principal, Lu Qing! Everyone could see how much Lu Qing cared for them since he had always consulted the teachers for their performances. He also arranged for them to stay in the comfortable post-graduate apartment on campus!
âWhite Tigerâ started his class energetically, but Hao Ren still felt weird about receiving special treatment. He was able to do other things in class before, but he had to listen carefully now since he felt like âWhite Tigerâ kept looking in his direction.
âRen, are you really becoming Mr. Lu Qingâs grandson-in-law? Even âWhite Tigerâ has to let you be,â Cao Ronghua sneaked over and whispered.
They couldnât think of any other reason why the teacher would be so nice to Hao Ren. Students had been late to his class before; a guy from Class One was two minutes late to class last week, and they enjoyed the show of him being scolded brutally by âWhite Tigerâ when he entered the classroom. It had only been a week, and there was no reason for White Tiger to change so much in terms of temper.
âMaybe he is in a good mood today. Stop talking, or you may have to suffer once he catches you!â Hao Ren said.
Cao Ronghua closed his mouth immediately as he saw âWhite Tigerâsâ eyes scanning over. He didnât dare to p*ss âWhite Tigerâ off since he was not Lu Qingâs grandson-in-law.
Hao Ren remembered what Su Hao had said in the cafeteria today. Indeed, since he had just gotten back from the Nine Dragon Palace, he was very interested in going again.
Even if Su Han was hiding something from him, she wasnât the type of person who would trick him into trouble. Plus, there might be some huge secrets inside of the Nine Dragon Palace.
Hao Ren wasnât sure if it were reasonable to assist Su Han in there as her Assisting Inspector.
He was a little anxious. Once he noticed that White Tiger wasnât paying close attention to him anymore, he logged onto QQ with his cell phone.
There werenât many people online, but Zhao Yanziâs lightened icon caught his eyes.
Hao Ren sent her a message after thinking for a bit. âYou are on QQ in class!â
After quite a few minutes, Hao Renâs cellphone lit up with her response. âSo are you!â
âNah, Iâm taking a nap in my dorm.â Hao Ren didnât want to admit that he was not paying attention in class.
Zhao Yanzi didnât answer, and Hao Ren couldnât help but send another message over. âHow are you doing today!â
âHow bored are you? I am in my Science Laboratory Class!â Zhao Yanzi replied.
Hao Ren thought to himself, âScience Laboratory Class must be the one where they create small things.â However, he decided not to bother her again.
âRen, which pretty girl are you texting?â Zhou Liren sneaked over.
âGet out of here!â Hao Ren blocked him with his hand while the phone in his other hand flashed again.
âI am a little dizzy today. You donât need to come over and tutor tonight,â Zhao Yanzi sent another message on QQ.
âGo back home and rest if you are not feeling well,â Hao Ren replied immediately.
âItâs fine. So annoying!â Zhao Yanzi answered, shutting the conversation down.
âDamn girl. She just doesnât want to study tonight.â Hao Ren thought as he shrugged and put the tutoring materials on his desk away.
Xie Yujia sensed that something was happening in the back and suddenly turned to them.
Zhou Liren was just bothering Hao Ren as he looked to the front and said, âDid you realize that Xie Yujia looks prettier than before? Did she put on some makeup?â
âHow would I know!â Hao Ren rolled his eyes at him.
But the moment Xie Yujia turned back, Hao Ren felt like she did have a unique aura.
âI feel like she got prettier too, but her outfit looks the same,â Yu Rong added a few seats away.
Hao Ren pulled his Nature Essence and looked at Xie Yujia; he didnât notice any signs of cultivation technique.
It was strange for her to obtain a better aura just in a few days without cultivation.
She was naturally a beautiful girl; if it werenât for the Class President position which put her in charge of a lot of things, she would have been a quiet and charming girl all along. With her originally attractive temperament and some makeup, she would be a man-killer in the future.
Hao Ren got more confused since Xie Yujia hadnât been in touch with him lately as if she was busy with something.
If it were before and she realized that Hao Ren had been missing classes for a few days, Xie Yujia would definitely be calling him and asking him what was going on.
(TL NOTE: Hey guys, here are the two chapters for today! What do you guys think? Did MC and Su Han enter the Nine Dragon Palace in the future?)
