Chapter 374: You Look Like A Devil!
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
While Xiao Yunfan was immersed in his bad memories, happiness flashed past Lin Chuhan’s eyes.
She turned her head.
As expected, she saw a familiar figure walking over from afar. It was w.a.n.g Teng.
Han Zhu and the other students from Huanghai Military Academy were close behind him.
“So I was right. I thought I made a mistake.” w.a.n.g Teng was surprised when he saw Lin Chuhan.
“I went to Capital Xia to watch the compet.i.tion,” Lin Chuhan smiled and replied.
w.a.n.g Teng nodded and continued, “Are you going back? I’ll give you a lift.”
“Okay!” Lin Chuhan nodded and agreed immediately.
“Let’s go.” w.a.n.g Teng turned around. Then, he pretended that he had just noticed Xiao Yunfan and exclaimed, “Hey, isn’t this Senior Xiao from Donghai University? Why are you here? Looks like we are fated.”
Fated your head!
This was a fatal fate.
Xiao Yunfan felt his head spinning as he cursed in his heart.
However, in front of w.a.n.g Teng, he could only laugh awkwardly and say, “Hahaha, Junior Brother w.a.n.g Teng, we just came back from Capital Xia too. This is just a coincidence.”
“I see. The compet.i.tion has just ended. Senior Xiao should go back and rest properly. I’ll not stay and chat with you.” w.a.n.g Teng was straightforward. He was too lazy to bulls.h.i.+t with him.
“Haha, you’re right. I should go back and rest,” Xiao Yunfan replied awkwardly.
“Goodbye then!” w.a.n.g Teng cupped his fists and bade farewell. Then, he brought Lin Chuhan and her friend away.
After they left, Xiao Yunfan’s expression gradually turned hideous. From Lin Chuhan’s att.i.tude, he knew that he had no chance at all.
If it were others, he would persevere and fight for her. But it was w.a.n.g Teng. He had no confidence to s.n.a.t.c.h her from him… or rather, he didn’t dare do it.
Come on, that brat seemed easy to talk to, but he was brutal in his actions.
He remembered w.a.n.g Teng’s smile at that time clearly. He said that he would be gentle, but he had smashed the brick on him mercilessly as if he were a devil from h.e.l.l.
“Tch, why’s he so arrogant? Isn’t it just a champions.h.i.+p? Who knows how he will end up in the future. Lin Chuhan is our campus belle. Why should we give her to him?” a student from Donghai University couldn’t stand it and complained angrily.

Xiao Yunfan gave a bitter smile.
Just a champion?
How dare he say that?
Xiao Yunfan glanced at the student beside him and shook his head slightly. This fellow was too naive.
There were many important figures paying attention to the National Number One Martial Arts Compet.i.tion. Once someone became the champion, they would leave a lasting impression in their minds. This t.i.tle had its value.
Also, Huanghai Military Academy would place more importance on him after he won the compet.i.tion. They would get him into the military in the future and might even lay out his path for him.
Ordinary students like them had to mingle among the different factions for a few years before they had a chance to get a high status. If their circ.u.mstances were slightly better, they could enter an organization and progress from there.
These two paths were incomparable.
In terms of talent, there was nothing to compare either. w.a.n.g Teng had defeated all the younger generation talents in the country. He was the cream of the crop. Even the Minister of Education had high hopes for him and said that he could reach the general stage.
What did the general stage represent?
They were the most powerful bunch of people in this era. They had the highest status in society and enjoyed countless wealth and resources. The difference between them and the ordinary martial warriors was like the sky and the earth.
Xiao Yunfan kept quiet, though. This student was speaking up for him. If he refuted, both parties would be unhappy.
There were things he couldn’t say. There were things you wouldn’t understand purely through words. You would have to experience the society personally to understand them.
…
In the car, w.a.n.g Teng asked Lin Chuhan, “Why were you with that fellow?”
Before Lin Chuhan could reply, Tian Xiaoxiao interrupted her. “We met him on the plane. He kept pestering us.”
“You should stay away from him. He isn’t a good person,” Wan Baiqiu suddenly said.
“Really? I think Senior Xiao is quite a nice guy.” Tian Xiaoxiao felt a little unhappy at Wan Baiqiu’s words. Xiao Yunfan was their senior in university. If others talked bad about him in front of them, they wouldn’t look good either.
“Hmph, that’s because you haven’t seen his other side.” Wan Baiqiu sneered. “If you go to the Xingwu Continent one day and work together with him, you will naturally understand how scheming he is.”
Tian Xiaoxiao hesitated when she noticed how firm Wan Baiqiu was in her opinion. “Really?”
“What will I get from lying to you? I just want to remind you. It’s up to you whether you want to believe me or not. Naive ladies like you will suffer terribly in his hands.” Wan Baiqiu ignored Tian Xiaoxiao after she finished this sentence.
“Just be careful,” w.a.n.g Teng said.
Lin Chuhan and Tian Xiaoxiao exchanged glances with each other. They nodded and didn’t rebuke anymore.
w.a.n.g Teng sent Lin Chuhan and Tian Xiaoxiao home.
Lin Chuhan glanced at w.a.n.g Teng worriedly after she got out of the car. She explained, “There’s nothing between Senior Xiao and me. I met him on the plane. He kept following me…”
“You’re afraid that I’ll misunderstand you?” w.a.n.g Teng teased.
“That’s not what I mean. You can a.s.sume whatever you want.” Lin Chuhan’s ears turned red, and she ran away.
w.a.n.g Teng smiled and shook his head. He went back to his car and drove back to school.
“Junior w.a.n.g Teng, is that your girlfriend?” Wan Baiqiu winked at him.
“How envious. You already have a girlfriend in the first year, a beautiful one too,” Han Zhu lamented in a serious tone.
“I didn’t know you were like this,” w.a.n.g Teng said.
“Your senior is a man too,” Han Zhu said helplessly.
“Senior Sister Wan is single. Why don’t you consider her?” w.a.n.g Teng sn.i.g.g.e.red.
“Hmph, I’ll rather be single than find a boring man like him.” Wan Baiqiu snorted.
Han Zhu: …
w.a.n.g Teng burst out laughing.
When they reached the university, Peng Yuanshan called them over.
Peng Yuanshan and the other teachers had been waiting for some time. They went straight to the topic when they saw w.a.n.g Teng. “You brought glory to our school in this National Number One Martial Arts Compet.i.tion. I’ll put this in your portfolio. The compet.i.tion took up a lot of time, and the new year is almost here. Go back and accompany your families. Have a happy holiday. We can talk about the future arrangements after we come back.”
“It’s the new year.” Comprehension finally dawned on w.a.n.g Teng. No wonder the streets seemed busier on his way back. Everyone was smiling.
The students were eager to go home.. They bade farewell to one another and left the school.
