As the discussion shifted from serial killer to more general topics, the atmosphere in the room lightened considerably.
Laughter and playful teasing filled the air, with Mo Chen taking on the role of the joker, being teased and low-key humiliated by them, solely for purpose of entertainnt.
However the man himself was unware of the dynamics, keeping silent, even being low-key proud in his ability to amuse them.
Amidst the jovial exchange, the original subject of universities resurfaced. The confusion was quickly cleared up regarding Xie irong and Xiong i's plans—both were set to join the Yunzhou Conservatory of Art and Music directly.
Their paths were clear.
However, for Mo Chen and Song Shoushan, the future was still uncertain.
The conversation montarily grew more serious as they shared their uncertainties about their academic paths.
Mo Chen shared his aspirations of aiming for the top university in the capital, but his words were t with a title of narcissst, and arrogance, by Song Shoushan, who revealed Mo Chen's earlier grades in school as a revenge.
As for Song Shoushan, her predicant regarding her university choice was evident.
The allure of top universities in the capital was strong, but the fierce competition and financial requirents made the decision daunting.
Her dilemma lay between pursuing higher education in her hotown, where good options existed, or venturing to the capital for greater opportunities.
The finances were not a concern due to her mother's successful businesses, yet the pressure of university exams weighed heavily on her.
The others in the group offered their encouragent and support, urging her to aim high and chase her dreams.
anwhile, Zhang Wei was occupied with the thoughts swirling in his mind, he cast a sidelong glance at Xiong i, the girl seated next to him.
The gentle curve of her lips as she laughed and the way her eyes sparkled with mirth only intensified his desire.
The age of eighteen was truly the epito of youth, the best period for a transition from a girl to a woman.
The delicate fruity fragrance that emanated from Xiong i served as a constant reminder of the peak of a woman's vitality and allure.
The air around her seed to carry the essence of her blossoming femininity, casting an serene spell that captivated one's senses.
While the temptation to use his unique abilities through the system was present, Zhang Wei hesitated...
Using system was an option, but Zhang Wei always tries his best to not rely too much on system for information, until absolutely needed, because he has no idea how long would his golden finger last.
=====
System Alert!
A Bonus mission has been assigned to you.
Target: Bai Wenling
Objective: Retrieve the rare artifact over her head, the gem embedded into her hairpin.
Rewards: Cultivation would be raised to the Initial stage of the Foundation Establishnt realm.
Proceed with caution and utilize all available resources to complete the mission. Good luck!
=====
The sudden notification from the system urged Zhang Wei to seize Bai Wenling's hairpin, which held the eye of an ancient beast.
This gem contained residual qi that could potentially aid him in advancing his cultivation realm.
Deciding to exercise caution and avoid direct confrontation, Zhang Wei chose not to interrupt Bai Wenling at that mont.
Instead, he resolved to find another opportunity to borrow her hairpin, making his actions appear less suspicious.
As Zhang Wei pondered his next move, his gaze inadvertently settled on Bai Wenling, who began to notice his lingering look. Perceiving the oddity, she decided to address him directly.
"Zhang Wei, isn't it? Don't you have any advice for Song Shoushan as well? You're likely the most experienced here, being in your final year," she remarked, realizing that he could offer valuable insights.
However, Zhang Wei promptly corrected her, denying her assumption. "Actually, I'm not in my final year."
Bai Wenling furrowed her brow in confusion. "Then, second year perhaps?" she ventured, sowhat intrigued by his response. His deanor seed more akin to that of a senior student, rather than soone in their second year.
Xiong i also turned her attention to him, intrigued by the conversation.
In the midst of it all, everyone else assud Zhang Wei was in his last year of university, except for Song Shoushan, who knew he had already graduated.
A faint smile graced her lips as she anticipated their surprised, after the relevation.
"I graduated three years ago from Qingyun University," Zhang Wei clarified, his deanor unaffected by their surprised expressions.
The room was filled with gasps and incredulous looks.
"Are you serious?" Bai Wenling asked, her expression a mixture of shock and curiosity. Similar looks of astonishnt were mirrored on the faces of Xie irong and Xiong i.
Zhang Wei simply nodded in response.
"Then, in that case, you're already my senior. I'm just a freshman at Qingyun University," Bai Wenling said, a bemused smile curving her lips. The situation seed almost comical to her, and she chuckled softly, adding, "Well, at least you didn't tell us you're already married with children."
However, her attempt to lighten the mood didn't go as planned. Zhang Wei cleared his throat, his voice firm as he corrected her, "Actually, you're mistaken on both counts."
Bai Wenling blinked, clearly taken aback by his response. "... What!?"
Xiong i exclaid, her eyes wide with surprise. "For real?"
"....", Xie irong, on the other hand, maintained her strange smile, her gaze lingering on Zhang Wei.
The room seed to freeze for a mont, the silence broken only by the sound of soone's heart pounding.
*Boom!*
In an instant, Song Shoushan stood up, her voice carrying an undertone of shock and disbelief. "Y-You're married?"
Bai Wenling's expression shifted from surprise to a mixture of confusion and curiosity. "That's what I want to know as well," she said, her gaze fixed on Zhang Wei.
Xie irong and Xiong i exchanged a quick glance before simultaneously turning their attention to him, waiting for his confirmation.
Mo Chen, though surprised, couldn't help but grin inwardly.
With this revelation, it seed that Zhang Wei's had nailed his own foot, and now Mo Chen competition had diminished as well!
Despite the various reactions around the table, Zhang Wei remained unfazed, simply nodding in acknowledgnt of their questions.
As all eyes turned towards Bai Wenling, her body seed to slump slightly in a dramatic manner. She placed her hands on the table, staring at Zhang Wei in speechless astonishnt.
