Chapter 989: Chapter 988: I’m Not Her Boyfriend, I’m Her Fiancé
The girl introduced resolutely, her voice clear and unwavering: “This is my boyfriend.”
Boy—boyfriend?!
The new instructor is Lu Mian’s boyfriend?!
The students hadn’t even gathered the shattered pieces of their hearts before they heard that refined man deny it: “Wrong.”
Lu Mian tilted her head.
Xiao Qimo leaned a few centiters closer to her, his fingers interlaced with hers tightening their grip. He emphasized deliberately, “I’m her fiancé.”
He had already proposed, so of course his status was different now.
How could a boyfriend compare to a fiancé?
They couldn’t!
Hearing this, Lu Mian smiled faintly, her expression serene and gentle, “Yes, my fiancé.”
Everyone: …
The house… collapsed!
The aloof and abstinent instructor was already engaged.
The campus heartthrob and prodigious scholar was already engaged.
The boys exchanged silent glances while the girls shed their singlehood tears.
Qiao Yaning sighed quietly: I told you long ago, you should worry about yourselves…
Shu Shu, looking dumbfounded, suddenly jumped for joy once she processed what had happened.
“This is great! Finally, I can rest easy!” No wonder the new instructor was so patient with her, no wonder nothing ever happened to Lu Mian, no wonder the instructor taught her movents hand-in-hand.
Those once improper thoughts suddenly felt so sweet and romantic when viewed through a new lens.
Standing on the edge of the crowd, Wang Shiwei, who had been sipping water, choked hard when she saw this scene, filled with endless regret!
She hurriedly ran to Lu Mian, thick-skinned as ever, and offered her sincerest (and fake) congratulations.
“Mianmian! You’re already engaged?! Your boyfriend is so handso, you’re such a perfect match!” She laughed awkwardly to herself and then added, “Hello, Instructor! I’m Mianmian’s roommate, Wang Shiwei!”
No one responded to her.
Wang Shiwei stumbled into embarrassnt and slinked off awkwardly.
The Applied Physics class, already reeling from the news of Lu Mian kicking the instructor, was hit with yet another bombshell.
The new instructor had co to Chixia Sect as an instructor just to protect Lu Mian!
They raised their heads to look at the couple.
In the sumr sunlight, the handso man and beautiful woman stood hand in hand. The sunlight filtered through the leaves, casting dappled light on them, reflecting in the depths of their gazes as they looked at each other.
One wore a sharp and elegant suit.
The other wore loose blue camo, exuding roguish flamboyance.
Their smiles beca the most beautiful scene of this sumr.
The onlooker, Mo Fan: …
——
Mo Fan certainly couldn’t let Xiao Qimo handle the entire student military training. As a subordinate, if the master didn’t want to do sothing, he had to scramble to take over. Conversely, if the master wanted to do sothing, it was his duty to secure opportunities for him.
Corporate life… so hard…
However, Mo Fan hadn’t even instructed for an hour when a junior disciple from Chixia Sect ca rushing to him in a panic.
“Senior Mo Fan, hurry, go check the base of the mountain! People from the rcenary Alliance are about to storm up! Their second-in-command has even shown up this ti!”
“Second-in-command? You an the ruthless and deadly Du Xiaofu?” Mo Fan’s expression turned grim.
“Yes, it’s him!”
Mo Fan’s mind churned.
He rembered Du Xiaofu—soone who ranked among the top five on the expert leaderboard within their circles.
Initially, he hadn’t thought much of Du Xiaofu’s skills. But in the last year or two, the man’s strength had doubled sohow, his strikes becoming vicious and lethal.
Encountering such an opponent during a mission would even make Mo Fan feel deeply troubled.
Now that Du Xiaofu was leading people to attack Chixia Sect, no wonder the junior disciples were so jittery.
Mo Fan, being a senior, maintained his composure and professionalism as he asked flatly, “Where’s the Sect Master and the Sect Mistress?”
“They haven’t returned yet.”
Mo Fan understood, told the students to continue resting, and then imdiately assembled a group of Chixia Sect disciples to head down the mountain.
The students: Well… that escalated quickly.
On the first day of military training, the command they heard most often was: “Rest on the spot.”
Xiao Qimo and Lu Mian sat leisurely on the ground, rely casting a faint glance at Mo Fan’s retreating figure, making no further move.
As for what they were thinking, only they knew…
——
When Mo Fan led his n down the mountain, they saw a group of rcenaries dressed in black, standing under the Chixia Sect’s ornate archway.
Each of them was a trained veteran who had retired from elite forces. Their skills were exceptional, their strength undeniable.
Especially their leader, the second-in-command Du Xiaofu, who was the most formidable person aside from their boss.
Mo Fan waved off the disciples and approached the towering figure of Du Xiaofu alone.
The man possessed the hulking build of a Western warrior, yet his na carried a poetic elegance, creating an odd contrast.
Mo Fan didn’t dwell on it too much and asked directly, “May I ask what business you have with Chixia Sect?”
Du Xiaofu had studied Z Country’s language briefly. Although there was an accent, it didn’t hinder communication.
“What else could it be?! Of course, we’re here for our boss! I’m giving you a chance—release our boss now, and we’ll let bygones be bygones!”
“…” Mo Fan’s face remained impassive, but inside, he was about to sob with injustice.
Chixia Sect hadn’t kidnapped their boss, okay?!
How could they hand over soone they didn’t have?!
“Second-in-command, I don’t know where you’re getting your information, but Chixia Sect definitely hasn’t confined your boss. Instead of making trouble here, why not search elsewhere?”
Du Xiaofu didn’t believe him. Clenching his fists, he protested furiously, “It’s definitely you! Our boss disappeared near your place! Don’t think we don’t know your sche—trying to annex our rcenary Alliance to beco the industry leader! Let tell you, as long as our boss exists, you can dream on!”
“…” Mo Fan nearly rolled his eyes. “If your boss is so powerful, how could we possibly capture him?”
Du Xiaofu wasn’t backing down either. “You Chixia Sect have an Underground Palace full of traps! If you’re really innocent, let us search the sect!”
“Impossible!”
Mo Fan firmly stood his ground, while Du Xiaofu insisted on scaling the mountain.
The two sides faced off for a while before they finally ca to blows.
The groups accompanying them followed suit, chaos erupting as the factions clashed violently.
The base of Chixia Sect’s mountain descended into a battlefield in an instant.
——
Who knew how long it lasted, but Mo Fan eventually returned, clutching his arm, accompanied by a group of injured disciples.
The disciples headed for the infirmary.
Mo Fan, anwhile, went straight to the training ground to find Xiao Qimo and Lu Mian.
Seeing his battered state, Lu Mian squinted, imdiately assessing the situation.
For soone to reduce Mo Fan to this condition, their skill must indeed be formidable.
She silently weighed how to resolve the tensions between Chixia Sect and the rcenary Alliance.
Xiao Qimo, after asking a few cursory questions, sneered quietly to himself.
He wondered how their organization’s second-team commander would clean up this ss…
