Han Ruoruo (Part 2)

Seeing Moyuan's expression, Han Ruoruo's curiosity instantly turned into a smile. "Haha, Senior Sister was just joking."

A good joke, don't tell it again next time...

Han Ruoruo looked at Moyuan in front of her and said with a smile, "Since Junior Brother was originally planning to go to the cafeteria, I happen to know a good noodle shop in Shrek City. Would Junior Brother be willing to accompany Senior Sister?"

"Huh?"

Something's not right, very not right.

Moyuan was certain he had no prior interaction with Han Ruoruo. Why was she approaching him now?

It couldn't be because he's handsome, right? That's too ridiculous. He's only attractive to all factions like a succubus because of his peerless talent, not because he's a real succubus...

"Can Senior Sister give me a reason?"

"Reason?"

Han Ruoruo put on a thoughtful expression. Although Moyuan hadn't specified what kind of reason he wanted, Han Ruoruo was sure she could guess.

"The reason is very simple. An eleven-year-old Soul Ancestor at level forty, with a second ring of a thousand years and a fourth ring of ten thousand years, who can overpower a Soul Emperor like Junior Sister Xiaotao, and possesses an elemental body martial soul. How could such a genius not pique anyone's curiosity?"

Moyuan was stunned for a moment, his expression suddenly becoming somewhat strange. He looked at Han Ruoruo, who was smiling at him, and said in a low voice, "So Senior Sister saw the battle last night?"

"Yes, not only did I see it, but almost everyone in the Inner Court saw it."

"Then why didn't you lend a hand? You just watched me fight with an out-of-control Junior Sister Xiaotao? A Soul Ancestor fighting a Soul Emperor, is that reasonable? Weren't you afraid someone would get killed?"

"Not at all. Lexuan, Wu Ming, and I were already prepared to intervene, but Dean Yan stopped us. He said he wanted to see how much strength you actually had."

A strange smile suddenly appeared on Moyuan's face. He slowly turned his head, his gaze sweeping over the buildings, landing on the faintly visible end of Sea God Lake.

"Good, good, good... Dean Yan, it seems I didn't pay enough. Next time I give you a 'very smooth' experience, you'll behave..."

"What are you talking about, Junior Brother? What 'very smooth'?"

"Nothing," Moyuan shook his head while considering whether to accept Han Ruoruo's request. After a moment, Moyuan looked up at Han Ruoruo, who was quietly waiting for his decision.

"No problem. Since Senior Sister asked, Junior Brother has no reason to refuse."

This is Shrek Academy, and Han Ruoruo wasn't a bad person in the original work. Plus, she's undeniably beautiful. Moyuan had no reason to refuse her.

Seeing Moyuan agree, Han Ruoruo revealed a captivating smile.

"Let's go, Senior Sister is treating you to a meal!"

Looking at the beautiful figure walking in front of him, Moyuan smiled and shook his head slightly, then followed. I didn't realize Han Ruoruo was quite so lively...

They walked side-by-side along the academy's path towards Shrek City. Along the way, whether it was their appearance, their demeanor, or Han Ruoruo's red uniform signifying an Inner Court disciple, it caused passing Outer Court students to stop and give them respectful glances.

At the same time, these students couldn't help but wonder what the relationship was between Moyuan, wearing a first-year student uniform, and Han Ruoruo.

Shrek Outer Court was not far from Shrek City. After Moyuan and Han Ruoruo walked the path they had taken yesterday in a few minutes, Shrek City came into view.

In terms of prosperity, Shrek City was second to none on the entire Douluo Continent. This was because Shrek Academy had exclusive governance over the city, and did not need to pay taxes to any country. This alone was enough to attract countless shops.

The sky had completely darkened, and brilliant stars appeared in the night sky. As the lamps were lit, Shrek City, which had stood for thousands of years, was completely illuminated by the lights.

Under the night sky, the city was filled with numerous vendors selling all sorts of goods, a dazzling array of items, and a surging crowd.

"Wowo buns, four for one Silver Coin!"

"Fragrant Wing Rice! Tender chicken and plump rice! Shrek students all say it's good!"

"Tianhai Soy Sauce, delicious and fresh! Sun-dried for 180 days!"

All sorts of calls from buyers and sellers could be heard. The streets were also filled with many Outer Court students wearing various Shrek uniforms. The academy did not restrict students' freedom of movement; they could go out on their own after class.

Unlike yesterday when Moyuan first arrived at Shrek City and needed to release his Dragon's Might to clear a path, the crowded students and passersby around them, upon seeing Han Ruoruo's uniform signifying an Inner Court disciple, spontaneously parted to let the two pass.

In Shrek Academy, and even in Shrek City, the Inner Court represented the pinnacle of status and powerful strength.

Facing the students' friendly parting, Han Ruoruo was not arrogant. She would smile and reply to the tentative greetings from the Outer Court students.

Her humble and kind demeanor immediately made them feel flattered and secretly determined to get into the Inner Court.

With the students voluntarily making way, Han Ruoruo and Moyuan did not have to waste time clearing a path. In a short while, Han Ruoruo led Moyuan to a simply decorated noodle shop.

"Junior Brother, this is the noodle shop I recommended. Although the decoration is a bit simple, the taste is definitely not bad."

"A Nuo Noodle Shop?" Moyuan looked at the sign at the entrance of the shop and suddenly had a question for Han Ruoruo.

Does the owner of this noodle shop have a pointy head?

With this question in mind, Moyuan and Han Ruoruo pushed open the door and walked in.

The noodle shop was not large and was kept very clean. Through the glass door of the kitchen, they could see an old man in an apron busy cooking noodles.

There were four square tables inside, which could seat a maximum of a dozen people. Some Outer Court students had already filled three tables, with one table still empty.

Moyuan and Han Ruoruo walked to the empty table and sat down. At the same time, Moyuan took a careful look at the old man's head in the kitchen, but unfortunately, it was not pointy.

"Ruoruo, you're here? Still having beef noodles today?"

Hearing the movement, the old man in the kitchen immediately came out. Upon seeing Han Ruoruo, his face instantly became kind and amiable. It seemed he knew Han Ruoruo well.

"Grandpa Hu, the usual," Han Ruoruo nodded with a smile.

"Alright, alright, I'll make it for you right away." The old man said with a kind smile. It was at this moment that he noticed Moyuan sitting opposite Han Ruoruo.

The old man clearly froze for a moment upon seeing Moyuan, then said with some surprise, "A boy? Ruoruo, have you found a boyfriend?"

As soon as he said this, Moyuan and Han Ruoruo looked at each other.

However, Han Ruoruo, still a maiden who had never been in love, showed a blush of shyness on her beautiful face. She pretended to be calm and said, "No, Grandpa Hu, this is a junior from my school."

"Yes, a normal junior," Moyuan chimed in.

"Hehe, yes, yes, just a normal junior," the old man chuckled, looking at the blush on Han Ruoruo's face, clearly misunderstanding something.

Seeing this, Moyuan couldn't be bothered to explain. He lived for himself, not for others. As long as misunderstandings didn't affect him, he wouldn't dwell on them.

Unfortunately, Moyuan didn't know that his lack of explanation led the old man and Han Ruoruo to form different ideas.
