Tang Sect? Not Even Dogs Would Go

As the number one beauty of the Outer Court, Jiang Nannan had no shortage of admirers. That was why everyone around them found this scene so unbelievable and shocking. After all, neither before nor now had they ever seen—or even heard of—her having such a good relationship with any man.

"Li Changsheng, is this the Sister Nannan you mentioned? She's actually this beautiful!"

After Li Changsheng brought Jiang Nannan over to sit down, Wang Dong openly praised her. His eyes were not blind; there was no way he could call white black.

"Of course. And she's a fifth-grade student, a genius who cultivated to this level entirely on her own." As Li Changsheng explained with a smile, he pushed the grilled fish before him toward Jiang Nannan.

"Senior, what is your martial soul?"

Hearing that, Wang Dong immediately became interested. Looking at the stunning girl before him, who wore a gentle smile, he asked curiously, "Also, do you have Innate Full Soul Power?"

"Mhm."

Jiang Nannan nodded. She did not hide anything and softly admitted it. "My martial soul is the Soft Bone Rabbit, just like Xiao Wu from the first generation of the Shrek Seven Devils."

"Soft Bone Rabbit?"

Wang Dong frowned slightly, seeming to realize something. "So you and Li Changsheng aren't biological siblings?"

"No."

Jiang Nannan shook her head, then glanced at Li Changsheng with her beautiful eyes. "What did he tell you?"

"He didn't really say much."

Wang Dong shook his head, his earlier interest and curiosity vanishing at once. "He only said he was going to find you to hang out, and I just wanted to see who this Sister Nannan he kept talking about was. I just didn't expect you to be this beautiful."

"You're very handsome too!"

Jiang Nannan blinked. Somewhat surprised, she smiled and said, "Looks like you still have me in your heart. I thought that after entering Shrek Academy, you'd forgotten all about me."

"How could I? I could forget anyone, but never you!"

Li Changsheng gave a bitter smile and said helplessly, "If Auntie heard you say that, who knows how she'd make up stories about me."

Hearing this, Jiang Nannan covered her mouth and chuckled. "Don't worry, I won't tell Mom. But today's grilled fish will count as your treat."

"Eat as much as you want. You're my sister, after all," Li Changsheng said indifferently.

It was not like he was the one paying. She could eat as much as she wanted.

"Actually, I paid for this. It has nothing to do with him!"

Just as Jiang Nannan was eating with great enjoyment, Wang Dong suddenly said that.

The moment those words came out, not only did Li Changsheng's expression change, but Jiang Nannan also stopped moving.

"Ah?"

After a brief moment of shock, Jiang Nannan came back to her senses and asked awkwardly, "The grilled fish is yours? I thought it belonged to my Chang Sheng."

"I'm sorry. I'll give you the money right now!"

As she spoke, she prepared to take out money to pay him.

"No, that's not what I meant! How could I possibly take money from you, Senior?"

Seeing this, Wang Dong became anxious as well and quickly explained that he had not meant that.

He was not short on money. Under normal circumstances, there was absolutely no way he would do something like that.

"One thing is one thing. Since my Chang Sheng didn't pay for it, then if I ate it, I should pay you back!"

Judging from the situation, they were probably classmates, but that had nothing to do with her.

If Li Changsheng had paid, she would certainly have eaten without a care.

But he had not. No matter what, she should compensate him for his loss. Besides, there were indeed very few grilled fish, and others might not even be able to buy them if they wanted to.

"Uh..."

Looking at the Copper Soul Coins before him, Wang Dong was at a loss. He could only turn his gaze toward Li Changsheng, as though asking what he should do.

"Take it. She doesn't like owing people favors!"

With both of them looking at him, Li Changsheng felt rather helpless. He naturally knew that Wang Dong had not meant it that way. Given his status and wealth, he simply would not do something so embarrassing.

What was more, Jiang Nannan was a fifth-grade student, one of the stronger students in the Outer Court. Logically speaking, people should have been rushing to curry favor with her. How could he possibly do something so tactless?

Wouldn't that just be ridiculous and show how lacking in vision he was?

"Oh, okay!"

Only after receiving Li Changsheng's agreement did Wang Dong helplessly put away the Copper Soul Coins on the table. "Senior, how about this? Tomorrow, I'll treat you to something delicious. Let's consider it making friends, alright?"

"There's no need to go to so much trouble."

Facing the handsome young man's proactive request, Jiang Nannan glanced at Li Changsheng. A trace of pride flashed through the depths of her beautiful eyes as she smiled. "If you and Chang Sheng are good friends, then naturally, you're my good friend too."

What she meant was that he did not need to spend effort on her. Since enrolling, she had seen countless nobles and handsome young men who liked her and wanted to pursue her.

And what had happened? She had rejected every one of them.

"I understand!"

Wang Dong was stunned at first, but once he understood what she meant, he did not say anything more.

That was fair. With his current status, it was only natural for her to refuse him.

Just then, Tang Ya and Beibei walked over from a distance and asked, "Little junior brother, how's business?"

"Very good. They were all sold out in no time!"

Huo Yuhao answered with a smile, "Although most of the customers were classmates from our class, judging by their reactions, my grilled fish must taste pretty good."

"Jiang Nannan, why are you here too?"

Following Huo Yuhao's gaze, Beibei and Tang Ya spotted an acquaintance—Jiang Nannan, who was sitting on a stool.

"I came to find my little brother and thought I'd bring him something to eat while I was at it. I didn't expect to run into him here," Jiang Nannan answered.

"Your little brother?"

Hearing this, the two exchanged a glance. Seeing curiosity in each other's eyes, they immediately walked over with Huo Yuhao and asked, "So all three of them are first-years?"

"Not only that, they're in the same class!" Jiang Nannan replied.

"Little Yuhao, how talented are these two classmates of yours?" Tang Ya leaned close to Huo Yuhao's ear and asked quietly.

"I don't know. Anyway, they're more talented than me," Huo Yuhao answered honestly.

"Isn't that obvious?"

Tang Ya rolled her eyes. Then, adhering to her principle of not letting any genius slip away, she smiled and said, "The two of you, my name is Tang Ya. I am the current sect master of the Tang Sect. Do you have any interest in joining the Tang Sect?"

"If you have questions about my identity, you can ask Jiang Nannan!"

She even thoughtfully used Jiang Nannan as someone who could verify her identity, afraid that they might doubt her.

"T-Tang Sect?"

Listening to Tang Ya's invitation, Li Changsheng stood there completely dumbfounded.
