Chapter 57: Chapter 57: Tyrannosaurus Tang Li
Upon hearing the shopkeeper’s voice, the waiter quickly stepped forward to open the door. A girl, about fifteen or sixteen years old, appeared before everyone.
Behind her were five or six people, with a veiled girl being protected in the center, and a green umbrella over her head keeping the rain off.
"Please, please co in!" The waiter imdiately understood the situation upon seeing their entourage.
The woman in front commanded as she entered the shop, "Prepare three top rooms for us, and serve your best food and drinks quickly."
"Very well, it will be ready shortly. Please wait a mont." The waiter said and then rushed to the inner room.
At this point, Chu Linfeng and his group also stopped their al to observe the newcors.
The girls appearing here are mostly heading to Celestial Dragon Academy; based on their attire, they’re certainly from a prominent family.
The woman speaking wore a pink dress, held a sword, and had an adorable and intelligent face.
Her bright eyes sparkled with confidence as she surveyed her surroundings, quickly noticing Chu Linfeng and his group, her face showing a hint of disdain.
Among those accompanying her were five middle-aged n dressed in black robes, all holding weapons, wearing hats, and exuding mystery.
When Chu Linfeng glanced at the one protected in the center, he couldn’t help but be amazed.
Her eyes seed capable of penetrating one’s soul; her delicate, soft face covered by a translucent white veil prompted one to think she must be beautiful.
"Could she also be heading to Celestial Dragon Academy? Will we be studying together?" A thought that seed a bit absurd echoed in his mind.
At that mont, the veiled girl seed to feel a burning gaze on her, lifted her head to look in its direction.
This look shook her heart, filling her flawless face with redness, hidden beneath the veil.
She found the boy’s beautiful eyes to be so captivating, as if they could speak, particularly attractive.
Another girl noticed Chu Linfeng’s group staring, especially the boy’s entranced expression, and quickly said, "What are you looking at? Careful, or your eyes might be gouged out."
She also saw the veiled Lin Ruoxi, inwardly thinking, "Why do they all like to veil themselves? Must be ashad to show their true faces, how could she compare to Miss Tang."
The veiled woman heard the girl’s voice and quickly turned her head aside, glaring at her, "Ling’er, don’t be rude."
Then she turned back to Chu Linfeng, "Forgive Ling’er, sir, it’s her temper. Miss Tang apologizes here." Her voice gentle, invoking sympathy.
"Miss Tang is too polite; it’s my fault for being presumptuous. It’s my pleasure to et Miss Tang here. Are you also going to study at Celestial Dragon Academy?" Chu Linfeng said, with a deliberate glance at Lin Ruoxi next to him.
In front of his fiancée, talking to another unknown woman, he worried slightly that Lin Ruoxi might get upset.
But Lin Ruoxi rely smiled, "Whatever you do, I support you; don’t mind my feelings."
"No need to call
Miss Tang, just Tang Li; I’m preparing to study at Celestial Dragon Academy. Are you going too?" Tang Li replied.
"Yes, I’m also going to study at Celestial Dragon Academy. The bad weather has trapped us in this tiny inn; unexpectedly, I t you here! You also don’t need to call
sir, I’m Chu Linfeng."
Chu Linfeng noticed the waiter bringing the food and drinks, then continued:
"I’ll not disturb your al; tomorrow we can travel together, look out for each other, and arrive at Celestial Dragon Academy sooner."
With that, he got up, taking Lin Ruoxi’s hand, and headed for the rooms arranged by the waiter.
"Alright, we’ll set off together tomorrow. Rest early."
After Chu Linfeng departed, Zhu Xiaoling quietly said to Tang Li, "Miss, you treat him so kindly, and your face was even red when talking. Could it be you’re interested in him? That’s not typical of you!"
"You cheeky girl, how dare you tease ; are you asking for a smack?"
"I’m just asking, why don’t you answer and instead hit , haha!"
"Alright, alright, stop ssing around, Ling’er. Honestly, I’ve had enough; I don’t care about this lady-like behavior. I plan to return to being myself," Tang Li said slowly, her eyes showing determination.
"Miss, you shouldn’t; if you do, I’m afraid no man will dare like you. A ferocious woman who scares people and carries poison! I wish you would quickly find a husband."
"Ferocious woman? Repeat that and see if I don’t tear you to pieces!" Tang Li angrily said.
"Look, look, your true nature shows so quickly, I genuinely worry for you!"
Chu Linfeng and Lin Ruoxi each stayed in their own rooms while the three attendants squeezed into one room.
The next morning, Chu Linfeng got up early, changed into a clean blue robe, looking even more handso. After grooming, he waited outside Lin Ruoxi’s door.
Not long after, Lin Ruoxi also erged, wearing a red dress today, her veil also red, holding a long sword; she looked like a wandering red-clad heroine.
"Let’s go, perhaps Tang Li is already waiting for us!" Lin Ruoxi smiled.
Arriving at the inn’s entrance, they only saw so of Tang Li’s attendants; Tang Li and her maid Ling’er were nowhere to be seen.
After a while, Tang Li appeared, feeling a bit embarrassed seeing Chu Linfeng’s group waiting for her, "Sorry for keeping you waiting, sohow overslept, and this cheeky girl didn’t wake ."
"No need for apologies, Miss Tang; let’s get on the road. We’ll reach Celestial Dragon Academy in two days, the sooner the better for preparations. I’ve heard there’s a level test upon entry!"
Chu Linfeng smiled, having heard much about the academy’s admissions during his journey.
"That’s true, let’s go! We’ll discuss it further once we arrive at Celestial Dragon Academy!"
After two days, they reached White Tiger City close to Celestial Dragon Academy. Although they could have arrived that day, they stopped.
"Let’s head to the academy tomorrow. Today, let’s prepare everything in White Tiger City. Once inside, there’s little ti to go out."
Except when the academy organizes Magical Beast Hunts, people generally can’t leave," Chu Linfeng conveyed what he’d heard upon arriving.
"Chu Linfeng, what’s this Magical Beast Hunt?" Tang Li asked curiously.
"The Magical Beast Hunt is a challenge for academy students.
It’s about who can kill the most beasts, offering rewards and bonus points toward graduation."
"What kind of beasts are they? I’ve heard they’re fierce; isn’t there danger?" Tang Li asked, puzzled.
"Miss, don’t act so cute; you’re soone who dares to kill tigers, yet you’re afraid of re beasts?" Her maid Ling’er suddenly chid in.
"Dares to kill tigers?" Chu Linfeng and the others asked, shocked.
"I...I..." Tang Li was at a loss for words, annoyed that this cheeky girl revealed her secret.
"Ling’er, I’ll chop you up..."
A black line appeared on Chu Linfeng’s forehead...
