She gave a word of caution, "Remember, when you ask later, don't let Wan Yunchao get involved."
The chubby Wan Yunchao felt deeply offended.
Tang Wulin said eagerly, "Teacher, let me play the female student instead. There's no need to trouble the other students."
Lin Ximeng: "..."
She really wanted to thank him; just a moment ago, Tang Wulin had been dead set against it, so why the sudden change of heart?
Lin Ximeng did not know what his brain was made of.
She truly wanted to pry it open and take a look.
To see if it was filled with seawater.
She asked curtly, "Are you sure?"
"Sure, certain, and absolutely!" Tang Wulin said with ironclad resolve, his face flushed with excitement.
Could it be that he only agreed because he gets to act with Li Luo? Lin Ximeng wondered.
Forget it, forget it, no point dwelling on it.
She hurriedly took Tang Wulin to a shop at the academy entrance.
It was a store that specialized in selling clothes for young girls.
Lin Ximeng briskly picked out a few dresses.
Then, she let Tang Wulin choose.
Tang Wulin tried them on in front of the soul-guided crystal mirror.
He looked at himself in the mirror, wearing an apricot-yellow dress, then a light blue one.
Finally, there was a red dress.
Tang Wulin forced a smile, attempting to imitate a young girl's grin, "Will Brother Luo like this?"
Back at the filming location, Li Luo sneezed without warning.
"Achoo!"
Li Luo muttered to himself, "Could someone be thinking of me?"
In front of the soul-guided crystal fitting mirror, Tang Wulin whispered, "Teacher Lin, I think a pink dress would suit me better."
"It will make me look more like a girl."
The pink sundress was chosen by Tang Wulin himself.
He remembered that Li Luo preferred light pink.
I should just wear what Brother Luo likes best, Tang Wulin thought to himself.
"Fine!" Lin Ximeng replied curtly.
"Then the pink dress. Clerk, wrap it up for me."
"No need."
Lin Ximeng quickly realized they would need it in a moment, so why bother wrapping it?
She paid for it.
Then, she took Tang Wulin straight to the filming location.
On the way, She observed Tang Wulin. Truth be told, Tang Wulin was acting quite convincingly; it was becoming hard to see the boy in him.
Especially in the pink sundress.
It was a perfect fit.
However, it feels like there's something I haven't considered, Lin Ximeng thought as she walked.
As they neared the filming location.
She slapped her thigh.
She remembered.
She hadn't put makeup on Tang Wulin.
Lin Ximeng hurriedly took out her portable makeup kit and applied makeup to Tang Wulin.
Throughout the entire process, Tang Wulin's face was bright red.
He was clearly shy.
"It's too perfect," Lin Ximeng said, looking at the Tang Wulin she had transformed in disbelief.
"You really look just like a girl."
Lin Ximeng teased, "Student Tang Wulin, perhaps I should call you Student Tang Wulin* now."
"Teacher, is there a difference?" Tang Wulin asked, confused.
Lin Ximeng smiled. "One is the 'Lin' from Qilin, and the other is the 'Lin' from sweet nectar."
She blinked. "Look, wearing a dress and makeup, doesn't he look just like a dainty little girl?"
Tang Wulin's ears turned even redder upon hearing this.
He lowered his head and pinched the hem of his skirt.
He didn't make a sound.
"Let's go, the filming location is just ahead." Lin Ximeng stopped joking.
Tang Wulin felt a bit apprehensive.
He was apprehensive that Li Luo wouldn't like him looking like this.
He was also apprehensive that Li Luo would like him looking like this.
What a painful dilemma.
Lin Ximeng noticed Tang Wulin's unusual behavior. "Student Tang Wulin, what's wrong?"
"Teacher, I'm fine." Tang Wulin's voice trembled slightly.
One feels timid when nearing home.
Tang Wulin felt timid when nearing Li Luo.
The two finally arrived at the scene.
Li Luo was engaged in a deep discussion with Principal Gao.
With the knowledge he possessed from his past life on Blue Star, he knew everything from astronomy and geography to the Douluo Decalogy.
He had Principal Gao hanging on his every word.
He turned his head.
He saw Lin Ximeng bringing a girl with him, a girl wearing a pale pink dress.
She looked somewhat familiar.
But he didn't recognize her.
"Principal, I've brought the person," Lin Ximeng said.
She didn't dare say, "Principal, I've brought the female student." Tang Wulin wasn't a female student; he was just playing the role of one.
Principal Gao clearly didn't care about such minor details and nodded slightly.
Tang Wulin's palms were slick with sweat.
Because Li Luo had walked up to him.
Tang Wulin nervously lowered his head.
Li Luo offered some reassurance. "Student, no need to be nervous. Just do as I say, and it will be fine."
Li Luo then explained how the filming would work.
After finishing his explanation, Li Luo asked, "Did you get that? Do you need me to explain it again?"
Tang Wulin finally raised his head. "Brother Luo, I remembered it."
As soon as that voice came out.
Li Luo froze. His eyes widened as he looked Tang Wulin up and down—the skirt, the lace, and the smooth, long, white stockings.
Li Luo couldn't believe it and rubbed his eyes.
What the hell.
Such a mighty and majestic Golden Dragon King, cross-dressing!
Was this a distortion of human nature, or a collapse of morality?
Li Luo fell into deep doubt.
Tang Wulin said anxiously, "Brother Luo, Brother Luo, what's wrong? Do you not like me like this?"
"No, it's not that." Li Luo steadied his mind and spoke.
He quickly realized that by saying it like that, it sounded as if he liked it very much.
Li Luo hurriedly corrected himself. "I don't like it."
"That's not it either." Li Luo was quite flustered. "I don't like it, but I don't dislike it either."
"Wulin, just be yourself."
Tang Wulin was a bit confused. What did Brother Luo mean by that? Did he like it, or did he not?
This is killing me.
So the storybooks were lying.
It wasn't a woman's heart that was like a needle at the bottom of the sea; it was a man's heart.
Tang Wulin felt very sad.
This perfectly allowed him to play the role of the "green tea" girl designed by Li Luo flawlessly in the performance that followed.
The scene entered the frame.
The back mountain.
Autumn-yellow leaves drifted down.
A figure like an immortal leaned half-reclined against a crooked tree, Li Luo's expression free and natural.
Tang Wulin wore a pale pink dress.
With her back to Li Luo.
"Brother Li Luo, Blue Silver Grass is the number one trash martial soul on the continent; it must be paired with a powerful battle soul master to unleash its greatest potential."
"Although... I really don't want to say this, you truly can no longer keep up with my pace."
"Your Rainbow Dragon martial soul is just trash."
"Six years ago, your soul power was level twenty-nine."
"At that time, you were only six years old."
"You were already level twenty-nine."
"Back then, I was so happy."
"Happy to have found a powerful battle soul master for my Blue Silver Grass martial soul."
"But..."
"Six years later, your soul power is still level twenty-nine!"
"Between us."
"It's impossible."
Li Luo smiled and stepped in front of Tang Wulin, his expression remaining calm and composed throughout. "Did you think I would say something like, 'Then let us each go our separate ways in peace'?"
"Otherwise?" Tang Green Tea retorted.
"Peace your mother!"
Li the Immortal erupted in an instant. "Slap!"
With one strike, he sent Tang Green Tea flying to a place where even the Soul Guidance Camera couldn't capture her.
Tang Wulin covered her mouth, looking aggrievedly at Li Luo, who was still filming under the Soul Guidance Camera.
Wasn't it supposed to be a fake fight?
Brother Luo is way too ruthless!
Is this the degradation of morality, or is it Brother Luo's twisted nature?
Tang Wulin let out a cry!
