Chapter 255: Chapter 53 Public Ownership Boyfriend
Ye Jun quickly left the clubhouse to check the files at the teorological bureau.
This Jinn girl was decisive and blunt, straightforward in speech and actions, which greatly appealed to Yan Yu.
It was a pity she served as the defense buff provider in her team and couldn’t be poached just yet. Yan Yu would have to take his ti.
No rush, he had all the ti to spar with Lord Master.
Yan Yu looked back at the banquet hall; Zhao Yuanzhen and Xie Ruoxi had already taken their seats in the dining area, each enjoying a steak deliciously.
Su Yunjin and Lin Ning, on the other hand, had run off to the garden area outside to admire the plants.
Chen Lingyun… Damn!
There, in the nearby leisure area, Chen Lingyun was sitting on a chair out of boredom, silently staring out the window.
Surrounding her were the young masters from the clubhouse. Each was politely and cheerfully conversing, striving to subtly show off to Princess Jiang Hai as if they were peacocks spreading their feathers before a peahen.
No, this…
Ling Yun, you said you didn’t like the many dogs in the clubhouse, but you never ntioned these human-shaped, fawning dogs!
At this mont, Yan Yu hadn’t anticipated that Chen Lingyun, who he often found annoying in his previous life, was such a hot commodity in the eyes of these flatterers. Hmm… sothing seems off?
On second thought, it seed there was no issue.
In his past life, even after Chen Lingyun had established a romantic relationship with Yan Yu, they would sotis encounter would-be suitors trying to steal her away.
But she was the kind of woman who was both an and smart. On one hand, she would rcilessly disgust others with a fake smile, while on the other hand, she would avoid disturbing Yan Yu as much as possible, leaving a deep and possibly troubling impression on him.
In this life, Princess Jiang Hai didn’t have an official partner yet, and the lurking suitors finally couldn’t hold back any longer—after all, winning over the Governor’s only daughter wouldn’t just benefit oneself; their families could benefit and advance for decades!
Moreover, her beauty was exquisite and perfect, a feature no man could find fault with… Which man wouldn’t be moved by such a woman, and which could suppress the impulse to get ahead?
Licked! Smooth, sleek, hiss hiss! As long as everyone licks, sticking out my tongue and wagging my tail won’t be embarrassing!
Yan Yu perfectly anticipated the flatterers’ mindset and sneered disdainfully. He was about to head downstairs for hydrotherapy when he suddenly caught Chen Lingyun’s gaze from afar, looking over.
The mont their eyes t, her fake smile transford into one filled with genuine warmth and pleasure, as if she had found sothing sincerely enjoyable—or perhaps amusing.
Yan Yu imdiately felt sothing was amiss and hurried to head downstairs. But Princess Jiang Hai had already risen and was rapidly approaching.
Once the princess moved, the pack of suitors naturally sward after her, creating a rather overwhelming—no, frightening—sight.
Yan Yu hurried his steps, Chen Lingyun quickened hers, and the suitors did the sa. Everyone in the banquet hall seed to be having a chase.
Yan Yu wanted to take the stairs two at a ti to descend quickly but didn’t expect that Chen Lingyun, with her short legs pumping like she was about to take flight, finally caught up with him at the staircase—clutching his arm forcefully, she smiled and said:
“Dear, would you like to go for hydrotherapy?”
The suitors behind instantly fell silent. Though no one spoke out, most were grappling with the shock, while several faces twisted grotesquely with jealousy.
“Let go!” Yan Yu, refusing to be duped, tried to shake her hand off, “I don’t know you!”
“He’s going to be my boyfriend~” Chen Lingyun announced to the crowd, smiling sweetly.
As a result, facial spasms induced by jealousy dispersed rapidly, and everyone’s faces showed a “I really want to kill you” sort of smile. They mutteringly agreed with remarks like “Ah, truly a match of talent and beauty,” and Yan Yu, unable to hold back any longer, simply dragged the arm accessory forcefully downstairs, disappearing from the suitors’ view.
“Do you have a death wish?” Yan Yu pulled Chen Lingyun off his arm with a displeased expression and forcibly pushed her against the wall.
Chen Lingyun didn’t answer, but instead leaned in to give him a kiss, spreading a soft and warm sensation across his lips.
Yan Yu pushed her small head away, impatiently saying:
“Can a kiss solve the problem?”
“No.” Chen Lingyun replied sweetly, “But it can calm you down.”
Yan Yu: ………
She wanted to slap her, but then she rembered that in their past life, even though she kept stalling and wouldn’t marry, she had never broken up or cheated in the face of a constant stream of suitors… Which is why in this life, I chose to part on good terms. But why are you coming to please again?
n!
Yan Yu hated his own tendency to dwell on past relationships. Even though he was determined to be the strongest in this life, he couldn’t even handle his shaless ex-girlfriend who had the nerve to throw herself at him!
Damn it, if this keeps up, how can I call myself the strongest in this world!
Ti to go for a spa treatnt to calm down.
Yan Yu left her standing there and silently walked towards the SPA area, quickly followed by the sound of hurried footsteps behind him.
Chen Lingyun tried to grab Yan Yu’s hand, but he shook her off. She didn’t seem upset at all; in fact, her smile grew even sweeter, as if she’d found a new toy to amuse herself with.
Down in the first-floor garden, Su Yunjin and Lin Ning browsed for a while, encountering many people who ca up to chat them up.
Chen Lingyun had helped them fend off one group, but with both girls’ good looks and presence, it didn’t take long for curious young masters to be drawn to them.
When so recognized their cultivator status (hadn’t they seen them on TV before?), they eagerly ca over to strike up a conversation.
If they couldn’t get to Chen Lingyun, they thought, why not try their luck with her teammates?
The top cultivators from the Zhenhai Team surely had bright futures ahead, and opportunities for pursuit were not to be missed.
Even though it was essentially sucking up, these people were polite in tone and attitude. Seeing that the girls were not interested in talking, they would simply smile slightly and leave. But it was hard to deal with wave after wave of people, even using the sa pickup lines several tis, like “I’m your fan” or “Can I add you as a friend?”, which annoyed both girls.
While Su Yunjin was relatively good-natured about it, Lin Ning was more short-tempered and finally, unable to bear it any longer yet not wanting to be rude, could only reply with “Sorry, I have a boyfriend,” to get them to back off.
“Where on earth has Yan Yu gone!” Once again having dispatched a few would-be conversationalists, Lin Ning grumbled, her temper flaring.
At that mont, Su Yunjin also realized sothing: the mbers who could enter this clubhouse were all individuals with status and stature—not necessarily here for leisure, but more for networking.
As cultivators of the Zhenhai Team, with Liu Longtao as a role model, it was only natural that they beca priority connections, even pursuits, for many—it was to be expected.
Of course, Liu Longtao had anticipated this and specifically arranged for the vice-captain Ye Jun to co and shield the girls from unnecessary trouble.
But now, with Ye Jun and the captain both absent, it seed they were probably sent off sowhere else…
She silently pondered and strategized, while Lin Ning didn’t think too much. More inclined to action than to thought, she had dialed their captain seven or eight tis without an answer and was now stubbornly trying again.
Finally, the call connected!
“Yan Yu, where have you run off to again!” Lin Ning burst out complaining, “Do you have any idea how many people have been hitting on us up here?”
“Huh?” Fresh out of the spa, Yan Yu was bewildered by Sister Lin’s tirade upon answering the call, at first clueless and then bursting into laughter, “People hit on you, and you can’t find a quiet place to hide?”
“Uh…” Lin Ning was suddenly at a loss for words.
Why didn’t they hide? Because Yun Jin wanted to see the flowers in the garden!
But she couldn’t complain about that to the captain because he would surely laugh at her and say, “If Yun Jin isn’t in a hurry, why are you?” So she just held back her anger and quickly asked:
“Where are you?”
“I’m on the lower level, just finished my spa treatnt, it’s relaxing,” Yan Yu responded.
“You need to co up here quick! We’re in the back garden!” Lin Ning insisted angrily.
“Why should I co up?” Yan Yu asked.
“Pretend to be our boyfriend so the people hitting on us will see you and think the flowers are taken and stop bothering us!” Lin Ning complained without thinking, originally intending to bla him for their harassnt because he was busy with his spa, but then Su Yunjin next to her blushed with embarrassnt and hastily called out:
“Ningning!”
Lin Ning also quickly realized she had spoken wrongly, her face turning red as she frantically corrected herself:
“No! I said it wrong, I’m not asking you to pretend to be both our boyfriends! I ant—you should pretend to be hers… I an, Yun Jin’s… not that either! Geez! Just co here and pretend to be her boyfriend so she can watch the flowers, and I’ll go find a quiet room to hide and play with my phone!”
