First Lessons for Xiao Wu (Request follow-up reading)

Xiao Wu froze for a moment. Looking at that broad back, a warm current surged through her heart.

"Thank you..."

she whispered, then carefully climbed onto his back.

Lin Yuan supported the backs of her knees with both hands and easily stood up.

It had to be said, the feeling was soft, light, and carried a faint fragrance.

Lin Yuan shifted the Young Girl on his back and walked out of the cafeteria.

Lying on Lin Yuan's back, Xiao Wu buried her face in the hollow of his neck.

Feeling the warmth from the Young man's body and that Strong Heartbeat, her originally icy hands and feet finally began to warm up.

The terror of being under that "Death Gaze" also seemed to have been blocked outside by his broad back.

This pervert may have a sharp tongue and a rotten heart.

But when it really mattered, he was pretty reliable.

A warm current flowed through Xiao Wu's heart.

Neither of them spoke along the way.

Under the slightly puzzled and gossiping gazes of everyone around them, the two left the cafeteria just like that.

Tang San, who remained in the cafeteria, frowned when he saw Lin Yuan and Xiao Wu suddenly leave.

Especially since Lin Yuan was carrying Xiao Wu on his back.

But after finishing his meal, he still had to visit Teacher's office.

A moment later.

Yu Xiaogang's office.

"Come, Xiao San."

Yu Xiaogang took an oil-paper package from a drawer. Inside was a somewhat shriveled roasted chicken leg.

As though displaying some priceless treasure, he handed it to Tang San. "You probably weren't full just now, right? This is for you."

"You're still growing. You can't fall behind on nutrition."

Tang San's eyes instantly lit up at the sight of the chicken leg.

To someone who had grown up drinking thin porridge, this was an unparalleled delicacy!

"Thank you, Teacher!"

Tang San took the chicken leg and, not caring about appearances, began wolfing it down.

"Cough, cough, cough!"

He ate too quickly, and a bone got stuck in his throat. Tang San's face immediately turned bright red from choking, his eyes nearly popping out.

"Slow down, slow down!"

Yu Xiaogang jumped in fright and quickly handed him a cup of water.

Tang San gulped down a large mouthful of water and only barely managed to swallow the bone, nearly dying on the spot.

Once Tang San finished eating, Yu Xiaogang put on a serious expression and asked, "Xiao San, do you know much about your two classmates?"

"That Lin Yuan, and that Xiao Wu."

"They both have Innate Full Soul Power, just like you. Such people are exceptionally rare on the continent."

"Perhaps you could become friends. It would also benefit your future development."

Of course, what Yu Xiaogang was really thinking was: It would be even better if you could talk them into becoming my disciples.

Tang San wiped the grease from his mouth and shook his head.

"Teacher, today was our first time meeting."

"Other than their names and Martial Souls, I don't know anything else about them."

"And..."

Tang San paused, a trace of gloom flashing through his eyes. "Lin Yuan's personality is far too arrogant. He also seems rather disrespectful toward you. I don't think someone like him is worth getting close to."

Yu Xiaogang nodded deeply in agreement.

Yu Xiaogang sighed and brought the conversation back on track.

"Fine, let's not discuss that for now."

"First, release your second Martial Soul and let me have a look."

On the way back to the Seventh Dormitory while carrying Xiao Wu, Lin Yuan was bored.

So he asked the system.

"System, do those who possess my Diary Copy also receive rewards?"

[ Ding! Answering Host. ]

[ Diary Copy holders can indeed receive system rewards. ]

[ The mechanism is as follows: ]

[ First, Guaranteed Reward: Every seven days, one month, half year, and year, they will receive a fixed reward. The longer Host writes the diary, the more generous the rewards will be. ]

[ Second, Lucky Koi: The system randomly selects one lucky person each day. The more frequently a character is mentioned in that day's diary, and the greater their relevance, the higher their chance of winning. ]

[ Third, Trust Feedback: Whenever the holder's Trust Level in the contents of Host's diary reaches the three thresholds of 60%, 90%, and 100%, they will receive an additional gift package. ]

[ Fourth, Defying Fate: If the diary's contents successfully change a character's originally tragic fate, they can likewise receive a reward. ]

[ Note: Rewards for Host and Diary Copy holders are distributed at Zero O'Clock every day. ]

After hearing the system's explanation, Lin Yuan grinned.

This system really had something to it!

After returning to the Seventh Dormitory.

Lin Yuan walked over to Xiao Wu's bed and was just about to put her down.

But Xiao Wu suddenly clutched his clothes tightly, refusing to let go no matter what.

"Um..."

Xiao Wu lowered her head deeply, her voice as soft as a mosquito's buzz.

"Lin Yuan..."

"What is it? Do you want me to carry you onto the bed too?" Lin Yuan raised an eyebrow.

"No." Xiao Wu took a deep breath. She Lifted Her Head, blushing as she Pointed to the empty bed beside Lin Yuan.

In a tone that was shy yet exceptionally resolute, she said, "Tonight... tonight, I'm moving my bed next to yours!"

Lin Yuan: "..."

This happiness had come too suddenly. Even he was a little slow to react.

Lin Yuan blinked and deliberately teased her. "That's fine."

"But I'm probably planning to move out in a few days."

"You saw it too. The environment in the Seventh Dormitory is terrible. Men and women live together, and the smell of feet is too strong. It affects my cultivation."

"Once I collect the Gold Soul Coin subsidy from Spirit Hall, I plan to spend money applying for a private room or rent a place outside."

Xiao Wu immediately panicked upon hearing that.

If Lin Yuan moved out, would she be left alone here to face Tang Hao, that terrifying Titled Douluo?

She might as well be dead!

"Huh?"

Xiao Wu froze, then immediately said, "Then wherever you go, I'll go!"

"I'll move with you!"

"Anyway... anyway, I can get a subsidy too! I have money!"

Seeing the look on her face that said she was determined to stick to him, an amused curve appeared at the Corner of the Mouth of Lin Yuan.

He turned around, folded his arms, and looked down at Xiao Wu sitting on the edge of the bed. "Say, Xiao Wu classmate, we've only known each other for one day, right?"

"Why does it feel like you've already latched onto me?"

"Could it be because I'm too handsome and you fell in love at first sight?"

"I still remember that you called me a pervert and a sex fiend today."

Having her feelings exposed, Xiao Wu's face instantly turned red like a giant tomato.

She lowered her head, twisting her fingers together as her voice became barely audible. "B-but you are a pervert."

"There's no one in the dormitory now. Don't tell me you didn't do it on purpose!"

Lin Yuan chuckled, Shrugged, and put on an utterly righteous expression. "Who told you your Soft Technique was so bad?"

"I was giving you an early warning, letting you know how dangerous society can be."

At that point, Lin Yuan suddenly changed his tone, his voice becoming somewhat earnest. "Xiao Wu, it's not that I'm criticizing you."

"Your Soft Technique may be powerful at close range, but its drawbacks are far too great."

"Think about it. You're a girl."

"If you get a boyfriend or a husband in the future."

"And your other half sees you fighting someone, with your legs wrapped around another man's neck and your whole body hanging off another man, do you think any normal man could stand that?"
