A Wealthy Young Man Making a Pass
"Oh, I'm sorry, but don't worry, my companions and I are all Work-study student, and we won't be able to eat like this anymore tomorrow. So, this is the last free dinner. Aren't you satisfied yet?" Tang Wu Lin asked.
"This... um? I just realized, you guys are Work-study student! Alright, alright, then you can continue eating." After saying that, the chef turned and left without looking back.
"Hey, I really am! Why didn't you say so earlier? You're Work-study student?" Xie Peichen said, somewhat exasperated.
"Huh? What's wrong with Work-study student? And you didn't even ask?" Tang Wu Lin asked, puzzled.
Xie Peichen snorted in response, clearly annoyed, and turned to leave.
However, judging from this, this so-called Work-study student must have a story behind him.
After thinking about it, I figured I might as well take advantage of the next few days to ask my older brother or Martial Aunt Shen Yi.
"Well, even though I'm used to it, I still feel quite emotional every time I see Wulin like this," Xie Xie said.
"Who can argue with that? I've practically grown up with Wulin since I was little, but I'm used to it," Wu Yang Jin said.
"Right, right, let's continue wandering around the academy, and check out the other places too. After all, school starts tomorrow, and we probably won't have as much time to stroll around," Xie Xie said.
"Great!" Everyone agreed.
Soon, the group strolled around the academy, seeing many lively places, since it was already evening.
Afterwards, the group walked to a brightly lit street with many shops.
"Huh? Class monitor, class monitor, what is that place?" Xu Xiaoyan asked.
At this moment, Xu Xiaoyan, with her sharp eyes, spotted a shop and saw that quite a few people were going inside.
"Hmm? It looks like a dessert and beverage shop? It looks nice. Shall we go and have some drinks and desserts?" Wu Yang Jin said.
"Okay, I think that's a good idea too. Let's go try it. It's my treat, how about it?" Xie Xie agreed.
"Okay! But I want to eat ice cream!" Xu Xiaoyan agreed.
"No problem, let's go," Wu Yang Jin said.
Afterwards, once inside, the group found seats and sat down, and then a waiter came over and handed them menus.
"Oh, thank you. By the way, this is our first time at this restaurant. Is there anything special about it... um?"
At this moment, Wu Yang Jin placed the order, but upon seeing the girl, Wu Yang Jin was stunned.
"Excuse me, could you please continue? Staring at people like that is very impolite," the other person said.
"Ah, oh... sorry, I just felt like I recognized you. I was wondering if you have any recommendations?" Wu Yang Jin said.
"Yes, we have them in our store..."
Afterwards, the girl gave a brief introduction to everyone and then ordered one by one.
Before long, Yuan En Yehui came over with a tray. Everyone took a juice and an ice cream, and then they ate and chatted.
"Oh, right, there's one more thing. We're new students here, and we're Work-study student, so I wanted to ask if they're still hiring?" Wu Yang Jin asked.
"Well, if you need it, I can ask the manager later," the girl said, then turned and went back to work.
"I'm looking to see if there are any pretty upperclassmen or anything like that! To prepare for when we become adults."
"Ah, Xie Xie, you mean the Sea God's Fate?" Wu Yang Jin asked.
"Yes, it's said that as long as you can enter the Inner Court and reach a certain age, you are eligible to participate in the Sea God's Fate Blind Date Event. It's a major event within the Shrek Academy. Moreover, that's how Spirit Ice Douluo found his true love. However, Aurora Douluo's story is different; it seems to be quite complicated," Xie Xie said.
"Hey, but then I suddenly remembered, Xie Xie, how old are you? What's the point of thinking about these things? Even if we were to participate, we're still too young. Besides, even for me, I don't know how far I'm from getting into the Inner Court."
"Besides, think about it. Gu Yue Meier are such geniuses, yet they weren't admitted as special cases. Furthermore, I can guarantee that the second student who fought me that day was the strongest among them."
"Also, don't let his loss to me fool you; his strength is absolutely formidable. Yet, he still wasn't accepted as a disciple by the Inner Court," Wu Yang Jin replied.
"Well, that makes sense. Let's find some targets first. Besides, as for the Inner Court, if we work hard, we'll have a chance, right? And Yang Jin, aren't you really planning to look for someone?" Xie Xie said excitedly.
"Me? I promised Na'er that I would take good care of her and stay with her from now on. How could I have time to look for someone?" Wu Yang Jin replied.
"Pfft... cough cough... My Class Monitor, are you serious? How should I put it... you're going to take care of your sister all the time...?" Xie Xie asked.
Gu Yue and Hu Meier disagreed with this, but they didn't show it.
"Alright, Xie Xie, why are we talking about this? These things are still a long way off. Let's celebrate instead. Congratulations everyone on getting into the Shrek Academy. Consider this a postponed celebration," Tang Wu Lin interrupted.
Afterwards, Tang Wu Lin eased the awkwardness, and the group began to celebrate, which was especially joyful.
Of course, if it could continue like this for just one night, that would be great.
"Hmm? Beautiful waitress, please come here for a moment."
Just then, as the group was celebrating, a rather loud voice suddenly came from the next table.
"Miss, give me your Soul Guidance Communication number," the boy said.
This person seemed very arrogant, and his tone sounded quite domineering.
"Hmm, this person is taking advantage of his family's wealth to commit evil deeds," Wu Yang Jin said.
"This is Shrek City, how can there be people like this here?" Tang Wu Lin said.
"Hmm, this guy's obviously here to hit on someone," Xie Xie remarked.
He was the only one sitting at the next table, but he wasn't wearing the Shrek Academy uniform.
Instead, he was wearing a white suit and was very handsome.
However, he appears to be slightly older than Tang Wu Lin and the others.
His overall attire was quite presentable; his hair was neatly combed, and his short, golden hair was glossy and smooth from the hair wax.
Moreover, he had a pair of very strange eyes; the eyes were golden, but the pupils were dark gold.
He exuded an aura of Holy Light and looked very noble.
