Taking Zhu Zhuqing Home

After saying those words to Tang San, Jiang Xuan finally left Shrek Academy without incident.

Watching his retreating figure as he left with the two girls, Flender's expression shifted unpredictably.

More than once, he had considered forcibly keeping Jiang Xuan behind, but when the moment came, he did not dare act rashly.

After all, the incident three years ago had left far too deep a psychological scar on him.

On the surface, Jiang Xuan had come alone.

But who knew whether powerful experts were hidden in the shadows?

After carefully weighing the pros and cons, Flender ultimately gave up on keeping Jiang Xuan, however reluctantly.

Forced melons were never sweet. It was better to let nature take its course.

After returning to Suotuo City, Ning Rongrong finally relaxed. Seeing Zhu Zhuqing beside her looking gloomy and saying nothing, she took the initiative to approach her.

"Zhuqing, I'm Ning Rongrong, and this is my Jiang Xuan brother. Since we're friends, you can just call us by our names from now on."

Ning Rongrong smiled brightly. Her warm enthusiasm melted away some of the ice in Zhu Zhuqing's heart, though not enough for her to immediately bare her soul.

To put it another way.

It was like a block of ice as large as her entire body, yet only a fist-sized portion had melted.

Thus, Zhu Zhuqing merely nodded and gave a quiet "Mm," with no intention of continuing the conversation.

The atmosphere temporarily turned awkward, but Ning Rongrong did not feel embarrassed at all.

"Come to think of it, the main reason I came to Shrek Academy today was because I'd been apart from someone for too long and wanted a change of scenery. I never expected the people here to be such trash! Why did you come here, Zhuqing?
