"Sorry I'm late, I still have reports to write at school. Hey, what are with all these expressions? I'll punish myself with three drinks, is that okay?"

According to Hu Rong, Su Ti's crush was actually their advisor.

A female advisor in her early twenties, with short black hair and a rather cool demeanor. Because she was very familiar with Su Ti and his dorm mates and had a good private relationship with them, they often went out for drinks together.

"Brother Xu, you're so late today. Our Young Master Su has been waiting impatiently."

"Get lost, Hu Rong. If you talk nonsense again, be careful or I'll beat you up."

Bringing a hint of fragrance, Xu Jun naturally sat in the empty seat next to Su Ti, picked up a lamb skewer and pulled it all the way down, then picked up a wine glass and clinked glasses with everyone. She tilted her head back and chugged a large glass of beer, looking very bold and unrestrained.

Su Ti was also observing her. Strictly speaking, Xu Jun was a true Southern beauty, with a pointed chin, large eyes, and delicate features. However, due to her carefree and overly cool temperament, her score was slightly lowered.

After all, men always prefer slightly weaker women. Xu Jun, if you had to describe her, was somewhat like Riven from Su Ti's previous life in League of Legends. It was no wonder the fatty always called her Brother Xu.

"Young Master Su, eat your food. Why are you staring at our Brother Xu?"

Seeing Su Ti constantly looking at Xu Jun, Zhao Xu also leaned over and teased.

"Cut it out, you. Drink, drink."

Noticing a fleeting blush on Xu Jun's face when Zhao Xu spoke, Su Ti also changed the subject.

To be honest, the matter of Su Ti having a crush on Xu Jun, at first, he didn't know who in the dorm brought it up. It was just because when they first met, Su Ti was the only one among the four who looked at Xu Jun for a little longer.

But the more it was said, the more it became a running gag. Every time the two appeared on screen together, they would be teased by the other three.

Over time, this non-existent thing had now become a bit strange. At least in Su Ti's previous memory, the atmosphere between him and Xu Jun had always been weird. Their eye contact was always fleeting, deliberately avoiding each other, as if they had a guilty conscience.

But in fact, there was really nothing between the two of them. One was a student, the other a teacher, not to mention a five-year age difference. Their family backgrounds, looks, and all aspects were vastly different.

Su Ti's appearance was unremarkable, while Xu Jun was a great beauty, and her family was very rich. The cars she usually drove were in the million-level range.

It was just her personality that made her get along well with Su Ti and his group. In fact, in terms of family background, they were not on the same level.

Xu Jun had also heard from Zhao Xu about the incident at Su Ti's home. She came over this time to see if she could help in any way.

Su Ti had to recount the story of being arrested again, and Xu Jun was also amazed after listening.

The five of them chatted and drank, using Su Ti's arrest as a topic. Unconsciously, the conversation drifted to all sorts of topics, and they all drank happily and spoke freely.

Among the five, except for Xu Jun's alcohol tolerance, the others were all good drinkers. After drinking for a long time, only Xu Jun's face was a little red.

Perhaps it was a little itchy after the alcohol went to her head, she scratched her short hair, and a string of red agate bracelets on her hand caught Yao XiaYu's attention.

"Brother Xu, that's a nice bracelet. Where did you get it?"

"This? I got this from my dad. It seems to be from the Hundred Kingdoms."

As soon as these words came out, Su Ti and the other three looked at each other, with shock in their eyes.

They were all history students, so it was impossible for them not to know about the Hundred Kingdoms.

"The Hundred Kingdoms were two or three hundred years ago, right? This is an antique."

Zhao Xu's face twitched, and he was the first to express his shock.

The world of the rich is truly... At most, he would wear walnuts or Vajra beads. This guy, wearing a centuries-old antique directly on his hand.

"Otherwise? I thought it looked good, so I took it out. I have a lot of this kind of stuff at home."

Perhaps she was a little drunk, so Xu Jun spoke freely.

Hu Rong covered his face and said.

"Sometimes when I'm with Brother Xu, the pressure is really high. I'm always unintentionally shown off to."

Yao XiaYu also looked sad.

"Brother Xu, if you don't mind, just take care of the four of us brothers. Anyway, you're not short of money. From now on, we brothers will take turns serving you like oxen and horses."

"Get lost."

While they were joking around, a sudden roar of motorcycles came.

More than a dozen motorcycles lined up and stopped by the roadside. More than a dozen young men reeking of alcohol, wearing floral shirts and showing off their tattoos, cursed and sat down not far from Su Ti and the others.

After these people arrived, the voices of the five of them unconsciously lowered.

Zhao Xu glanced at the opposite side and whispered.

"It's Brother Long's group. How unlucky. Let's finish eating and leave quickly."

Yao XiaYu also glanced over and nodded.

"These idiots are drunk again, maybe even high on something. They look like they want to cause trouble. Let's not provoke them."

At this time, with the arrival of this group of people, Xu Jun had sobered up a bit and nodded slightly.

Brother Long was a group of thugs near Mingguang University. Because there was always a bar near the university, they made a living by guarding the bars nearby. It was said that they also moonlighted selling drugs and collecting debts. It was rumored that Brother Long, the leader, once broke someone's arm while collecting a debt, and he had a bad reputation.

In short, they were a bunch of rotten people, thugs. No one near Mingguang University dared to provoke this group of people. They would avoid them if they could.

After the few of them discussed it, Xu Jun directly raised her hand.

"Boss, check please."

Su Ti and the others took turns treating each other, and this time it just happened to be Xu Jun's turn.

The kind-faced boss walked over, his face wreathed in smiles.

"Sorry, sorry, that's two hundred and thirty yuan in total, just give me two hundred. I'm really sorry for disturbing you."

"It's okay, boss, it's not your fault."

After scanning the code, Xu Jun directly transferred three hundred yuan, picked up her bag, and was about to leave with Su Ti and the others. Just then, a hand covered in tattoos suddenly grabbed Xu Jun's fair, lotus-root-like arm.

The steps of Su Ti and the other three paused. Xu Jun also looked up. The person holding her hand was a young man with a sallow face and a thin build.

"I say, beautiful, you're leaving as soon as we arrive? Aren't you giving us face?"

The man revealed a mouth of yellowed and blackened teeth, pulled open his floral shirt, revealing a dragon tattoo across his shoulder inside.

"Dragon Bro..."

"Oh, the beauty knows me. This is fate. It's not too late to have a drink with us before you leave."

Looking at Xu Jun's exquisite face, the slight flush from the alcohol added a touch of fragility, making her indescribably alluring at this moment.

Dragon Bro's lust was greatly aroused. He smiled sinisterly, and the younger brothers behind him had already stood up. Zhao Xu, Hu Rong, and Yao XiaYu also tensed up, their faces stiff.

Although they had been in a few fights at school, when they actually encountered a conflict with people from society like this, it was false to say they weren't nervous or scared.

Especially a hooligan like Dragon Bro, who had an extraordinary deterrent effect on students who were still studying.

A younger brother beside him also chuckled and brought over a glass of wine. In the glass, a tiny bit of a completely melted white substance flashed.

Seeing this scene, Xu Jun's face instantly sank, but contrary to her expression, she said,

"I'll drink."

"Brother Xu!"

Zhao Xu behind her also saw the unknown substance in the glass. Just as he opened his mouth, Xu Jun whispered,

"Don't say anything! Give it to me!"

"That's right."

Dragon Bro gave a look, and the younger brother handed the wine to Xu Jun. Xu Jun held the glass, staring at the liquid inside, then suddenly erupted, directly smashing the glass on Dragon Bro's face, cursing,

"I'll drink your mother!"

Xu Jun's sudden move was unexpected by everyone.

Dragon Bro was suddenly hit hard. The glass shards exploded directly on his face. He screamed and fell down, his face covered in blood.

Xu Jun directly picked up her bag, turned around, and ran.

"Aren't you running!"

"Oh, oh..."

With Xu Jun's loud shout as she ran, Zhao Xu and the others finally came to their senses and ran.

They didn't know until they ran, Xu Jun had already run a distance. What was even more infuriating was Su Ti, who was silent and was now running side by side with Xu Jun, and his speed was even slightly faster than Xu Jun's.

"Prioritizing women over friends!"

The three of them screamed and immediately scattered and fled.

The three of them weren't stupid. They knew that the bigger the target, the easier it was to be caught. Scattering and fleeing gave them the greatest chance.

Dragon Bro and his group also reacted at this moment. Dragon Bro covered his bloody face and looked at Xu Jun's fleeing back, exasperatedly saying,

"Chase, chase after her, damn it!"

Su Ti's feet were like the wind, running incredibly fast, with no thought of turning back to fight.

The strength of these hooligans was naturally far inferior to professional black boxers. As someone who had single-handedly killed a professional black boxer, if it was 1v1, he felt that with his physical fitness slightly enhanced by the Dragon Shape Five Forms and his mastery of Comprehensive Fighting Techniques, he would definitely win.

1v2 was risky, but the chances of winning were still high.

1v3 was more likely to lose than win, and even if he won, he would likely be seriously injured.

As for 1v4, 1v5, don't even think about it. It would be difficult to take down a few with his life, let alone 1vmore than ten. Just run.

Hoo, ha, hoo, ha.

Intense breathing sounds rang in his ears. Su Ti turned his head and saw that it was Xu Jun.

After all, she was a girl, her stamina was a bit poor, and she had drunk too much, so her breathing was not smooth.

At this moment, her pretty face was flushed, and she looked pained, clearly exhausted.

Slap.

Xu Jun's hand was grabbed. She was slightly startled and looked at Su Ti, with some surprise in her eyes.

Su Ti didn't say anything, silently speeding up.

But no one knew that at this moment, he was ten thousand times more shocked than Xu Jun.

Energy injecting—

20%!

40%!

60%!

80%!

Su Ti was incredibly shocked. Just as he grabbed Xu Jun's wrist, the modifier's light screen popped up, and the energy, which had never increased before, actually began to surge on its own.

It actually gets energy from women. No wonder I couldn't find a way for several days. Just grabbing a hand adds so much. If I were to grab...

But the next second, Su Ti shook off his foolish thought.

Getting energy just by grabbing a woman's arm was too unscientific, too illogical!

Even while running, he keenly noticed that the touch of Xu Jun's wrist was a bit different.

Cold, and with a distinct grainy feel.

He looked down, and sure enough!

It was the string of mysterious antiques from the Hundred Kingdoms era that Xu Jun had shown at the dinner party!

"Stop quickly!"

Xu Jun's scream interrupted Su Ti's thoughts.

He quickly braked, only to find that there was a wall six or seven steps ahead!

He turned his head and looked around, realizing that because he had been focused on the modifier, he had silently run into a dead end.

If Xu Jun hadn't reminded him, he would have almost hit the wall.

"Get out of here quickly."

Xu Jun said urgently. If Dragon Bro chased them now and they were trapped in the alley, they would be like turtles in a jar.

Su Ti nodded. Just as he took two steps to leave, the roar of a motorcycle came.

Immediately after, Dragon Bro, covering his bleeding cheek and with a ferocious and angry face, walked out of the alley entrance.

"Run, why aren't you running anymore?"
