(Special thanks to all the students who subscribed to Xiaolong!)
While they were flying toward the school on Little White, Lu Linlin and Lu Lili were in the old Grandma's room.
There was a broken chair, a broken bed, and three cups of tea.
The Lu sisters and the old Grandma sat facing each other for more than two hours.
Both the old Grandma and the Lu sisters were able to keep their composure.
"Three-Petal Realm cultivation strength," the old Grandma finally spoke.
"Senior, you are also at the Four-Petal Realm, right?" Lu Linlin asked.
"Just barely." The old Grandma picked up the tea and took a sip.
Lu Linlin and Lu Lili also picked up their teacups politely and took small sips.
The top-tier Tiger Cane Grass in the teacups could stabilize one's mind and was also a rare ingredient for making elixir pills.
"The mortal world has its own rules. You are not from this world, and you must follow the rules of this world," the old Grandma put down the teacup and said slowly.
"Senior, do you mean that you want to send us back?" Lu Linlin stared at the old Grandma and asked slowly.
Lu Lili leaned against her sister, and her eyes flashed.
The old Grandma shook her head. "I invited you here because I hope that you can follow some rules."
"Rules?" Lu Linlin looked at the old Grandma, unwilling to be outdone. "You almost injured our Gongzi last time, and we didn't even hold it against you!"
"Since we can't come to an agreement, let's go." The old Grandma waved her hand.
Lu Linlin and Lu Lili felt a strong gust of wind blowing them up.
Obviously, the small hut was this grand cultivator's hidden space. Before Lu Linlin and Lu Lili could react, they were thrown out of the hut.
"Sister, this person is so fierce!" Lu Lili looked back at the house and said indignantly.
Inside the house, she had been suppressed by a powerful aura, and she almost couldn't breathe.
"Humph! We can't defeat her! Let's endure it for now! "Lu Linlin pulled her sister up and threw out a colorful energy sphere before flying into the high sky.
Although she and Lu Lili were top-tier masters in East Ocean City, they were no match for this Soul Formation Realm cultivator!
At their level, there was no need for them to fight each other. They could feel each other's pressure just by releasing their auras!
Even with her and her younger sister's combined energy, they were still no match for that Soul Formation Stage cultivator's spiritual power!
Besides, this cultivator was not completely clueless about the Heavenly Realm!
On the other side, Hao Ren walked Xie Yujia back to her dorm. Then, he put away Little White and went back to his dorm with the CD.
At the same time, Hao Ren borrowed Chen Ke's computer from the opposite dorm and looked at the CD that Zhao Yanzi gave him.
Just as Hao Ren had expected, the CD he burned contained the video of Zhao Yanzi's performance yesterday.
Zhao Yanzi looked very lively in her long dress and tight-fitting dress.
Even though he had seen the live performance, it felt different when he watched the video.
Zhao Yanzi's performance was quite good. Especially her slightly mature and slightly childish face, she played the 13-year-old Juliet so well that it was almost like she was playing herself.
On the stage, she looked good and didn't really have stage fright. Occasionally, her eyes would wander as if she was looking for someone in the audience.
"Idiot … She's distracted while performing." Hao Ren wanted to laugh as he watched.
In the second half, Zhao Yanzi's performance was relatively more serious, and she spoke long lines smoothly. Some of her movements and expressions were more on point than in the first half.
Her crisp voice sounded like pearls falling onto a jade plate, and people could even hear it several times.
After watching the entire performance, it was almost time for the dorm to turn off the lights. Hao Ren heaved a long sigh of relief, thinking that Zhao Yanzi was indeed quite cute.
When he was about to stand up, he suddenly saw a large group of guys standing behind him.
"Damn! What are you guys doing? "Hao Ren was startled by himself.
With his Zhen-level cultivation strength, he didn't even notice the group of guys standing behind him. He must have been too engrossed in watching the video.
"Wow! Who is this little girl? She's so cute!"
"Super cute!"
"Her voice is also very nice. Which school is this play from?"
"She must be even cuter in real life!"
"Is this video very popular? How come I've never seen it before? Hao Ren, where did you get it? "
After the video ended, they immediately began a heated discussion.
Hao Ren didn't answer their questions. He quickly took the disc out of his computer and put it back immediately.
The guys rushed to take the disc from Hao Ren's bookshelf, but they were all stopped by Hao Ren.
"Lend it to me to make a copy. I'll give it back to you!"
"It will be very popular on the Internet!"
They tried to persuade Hao Ren as they coveted the disc. However, Hao Ren wouldn't give it to them. He took the disc back to the upper berth and put it under his pillow to protect it.
He planned to take the disc home this weekend and show it to Grandma. Zhao Yanzi must have given it to him for this reason.
"If you don't want to give it to me, then we'll search it on the Internet ourselves! She must be a popular girl on the Internet! " Seeing that Hao Ren hid the disc, the guys all looked at him in disdain and left.
They couldn't believe that Hao Ren knew such a cute girl. They also forgot that Zhao Yanzi had come to East Ocean University before.
However, the Zhao Yanzi on the stage was a little different from the Zhao Yanzi in real life. Also, their impression of Zhao Yanzi was vague, so they didn't connect the dots.
"It would be great to have such a pretty girl as my girlfriend."
"You pervert! She's only a teenager, ok?"
"It doesn't matter if she's young. She can grow up slowly!"
"What do you know? There are a lot of middle school students dating nowadays!"
They talked as they walked out of Hao Ren's dorm.
If they knew that Hao Ren's fiancée was the super cute girl in the video, they would probably rush to Hao Ren's upper berth and strangle him to death out of jealousy.
Half the night was spent cultivating and the other half was spent sleeping. Soon, it was Thursday.
The new substitute teacher was still in charge of Su Han's class. The guys were sleepy, and no one fought to sit in the front row. Zhao Jiayi pushed Hao Ren to sit with Xie Yujia in the front row, and Ma Lina avoided being the third wheel and sat with Zhao Jiayi and the guys in the back.
When the class began, Xie Yujia buried herself in her notes while Hao Ren flipped through the extracurricular textbook for Grade Eight Math, preparing the tutoring materials for Zhao Yanzi that night.
The two of them got along well, and they didn't look like a couple in love at all. Instead, they felt like childhood friends.
In the evening, the two of them took the bus to Zhao Yanzi's home.
The sunset was as beautiful as a painting. Xie Yujia looked out of the window quietly and suddenly said, "I think you did a good job in the tutoring materials for Zhao Yanzi."
Hao Ren who was thinking suddenly looked up and smiled bitterly. "What's the use of being serious? She doesn't study seriously."
"In fact, she's quite sensible. It's just that she's a bit rebellious sometimes," Xie Yujia said.
"Sensible? She's sensible? "
Hao Ren thought to himself.
After arriving at the bus station, Hao Ren and Xie Yujia went to Zhao Yanzi's home together.
Zhao Guang was home today as well, and Zhao Hongyu had prepared a table full of dishes for Hao Ren and Xie Yujia.
"Uncle, Auntie." Seeing Zhao Guang's serious expression, Xie Yujia was a bit nervous, but she still greeted them respectfully.
"Hehe, come in and have a seat." Zhao Hongyu welcomed Xie Yujia warmly and invited Hao Ren in.
Zhao Yanzi was already home from school. She was sitting on the soft sofa with a TV remote in her arms, completely ignoring Hao Ren and Xie Yujia.
Hao Ren looked at her carefully and didn't see any unusual glow, but her temperament seemed different from yesterday.
Not only were her eyes more energetic, but her soft skin seemed smoother as well. Although he was lying on the sofa in a sickly and uncooperative manner, his youthful vigor that couldn't be hidden was still radiating out.
"Come on, let's eat. We'll have to trouble Yujia and Ren later. Thank you so much for taking care of my Little Zi, "Zhao Hongyu said as she held Xie Yujia's wrist and pulled her to the dining table.
Her polite words were mainly directed at Xie Yujia, and it wasn't unreasonable for her to treat Xie Yujia like this. After Xie Yujia's two-hour tutoring last night, Zhao Yanzi reached level 1 of the Qi Refinement Realm in just one night!
It seemed like an insignificant improvement, but it meant a lot to Zhao Guang and Zhao Hongyu!
It meant that Zhao Yanzi could still cultivate even if she lost her Dragon Core! She was no longer a cripple! She had opened up a brand new path of cultivation!
The deeper her cultivation foundation was, the higher the success rate of her Dragon Core would be!
Xie Yujia didn't care about Zhao Yanzi's prejudice against her and guided Zhao Yanzi with all her heart. How could Zhao Hongyu not be touched?
"Auntie, you don't have to be so polite." Xie Yujia was a bit shy at Zhao Hongyu's enthusiasm. She blushed and sat down at the dining table.
Zhao Guang also sat at the dining table expressionlessly, putting on the airs of a parent. In fact, he was more excited than anyone else when he discovered the faint nature essence fluctuations around Zhao Yanzi's body this morning!
Zhao Yanzi's return to the path of cultivation meant that all kinds of elixirs could be used on her without any side effects. Therefore, she didn't have to be as fragile as a mortal!
"Yujia used to go to LingZhao Middle School, right?" Zhao Hongyu asked Xie Yujia while eating.
"Yes, Auntie," Xie Yujia answered politely.
"She seems to be Ms. Luo's favorite student. She was also the top student in LingZhao Middle School …"
Zhao Hongyu's topic revolved around Xie Yujia, and Zhao Yanzi, who was sitting next to her, was eating quietly. The more she listened, the more annoyed she became.
Zhao Guang maintained his dignity as the head of the family and ate quietly. Zhao Yanzi didn't dare to cause trouble at the dining table because of his imposing manner.
Zhao Hongyu was afraid that Xie Yujia would think that she was naggy, so she asked Zhao Guang for permission and turned on the TV.
The TV was showing the local news of East Ocean City.
"Recently, LingZhao Middle School in East Ocean City organized a school play, and it became a new benchmark for quality education …"
The news on the TV caught Zhao Hongyu's and the others' attention.
"Mom! That's me! "Zhao Yanzi yelled in excitement.
In the center of the stage, Zhao Yanzi stood beside Romeo. She was as beautiful as an ancient princess, and she immediately caught everyone's attention.
Hao Ren looked at Zhao Yanzi on the TV and then at Zhao Yanzi who was sitting across the dining table. Sure enough, Zhao Yanzi's temperament had improved.
More than ten seconds of news passed in the blink of an eye. However, Zhao Yanzi couldn't suppress her excitement.
Half a minute later, Zhao Hongyu's cell phone rang one after another.
"Hehe, it's okay. She's a girl, and we need to give her some exercise … "
"Not at all. Isn't your Qianqian pretty as well …"
"No, no. She's not performing all over the country yet. Ok, ok, ok. I'll bring her out for you to see when we have dinner next time. Bring your Youyou out too. She's almost five years old …"
Zhao Hongyu dealt with the phone calls and finally hung up one by one.
Obviously, these were Zhao Hongyu's friends from work and life who saw the news and called her. Zhao Hongyu's words were modest, but judging from the smile at the corner of her mouth, she actually had a lot of face.
"Zi's performance that day was indeed amazing," Xie Yujia took the opportunity to comment.
Zhao Yanzi looked at Xie Yujia as if she wanted to retort, but she didn't. She was happy that Xie Yujia praised her for her good performance.
Seeing that Zhao Yanzi was so excited, Hao Ren didn't flatter her anymore. He just said lightly, "It was okay," and Zhao Yanzi immediately rolled her eyes.
After dinner, Hao Ren and Xie Yujia went upstairs with Zhao Yanzi. Xie Yujia taught her the basic Qi Refinement Scroll, and Hao Ren tutored her with school homework.
Perhaps it was because of the news, Zhao Yanzi was still immersed in excitement. Subconsciously, she was thinking about what would happen at school tomorrow. She didn't oppose Xie Yujia. Instead, she followed Xie Yujia's instructions and cultivated the Qi Refinement Scroll step by step.
She quickly finished the test papers that Hao Ren gave her without any conditions. In the middle, she received a call from Ling, and they chatted for more than ten minutes.
On the other side of the phone, Ling predicted that Zhao Yanzi would become a big star in the future. Zhao Yanzi was so happy that she rolled around on the bed while listening to the phone.
Hao Ren and Xie Yujia looked at her helplessly and amused.
Knock, knock, knock … Just when Hao Ren and Xie Yujia finished their task and were about to go home, a rhythmic knocking sound came from Zhao Yanzi's door.
"Come in!" Zhao Yanzi called out loudly.
She thought that it was Zhao Hongyu who knocked on the door, and her tone was a little coquettish. It seemed like she wouldn't be able to sleep tonight. After all, she was only a Grade Eight girl, and a little glory filled her heart.
However, it wasn't Zhao Hongyu who opened the door; it was Zhao Guang.
Zhao Yanzi thought that Zhao Guang was going to scold her for yelling in the room, so she sat up immediately.
However, Zhao Guang glanced at Zhao Yanzi briefly before turning to Xie Yujia. "Little Xie, you want to make elixirs, right? I'll take you there now."
