Whistling, he strode confidently into the dormitory building.
During this time, most people were already asleep, so He Caitou others were not seen in the dormitory corridor.
Otherwise, they would definitely have gathered together for a chat again. After all, having spent so much time in other colleges, they've all learned to stick together for mutual support.
Not long after entering the room, Ice Empress, who was sitting on the bed cultivating, opened her eyes and stretched her neck to take a deep sniff.
"Hmm! What smells so good?"
Looking up, Ice Empress immediately spotted what Cao Yu was holding, and she was certain that the fragrance was coming from that bag.
And the smell is very familiar, so there's a high chance it contains grilled meat skewers.
"Ta-da! This grilled meat is for a late-night snack, it smells amazing! It's a shame you're still on a diet, sigh! Poor thing."
Cao Yu placed the food on the table and began eating it right in front of her without any hesitation, which made Ice Empress so angry that she gritted her teeth.
Ever since Cao Yu found out she was on a diet, he's been bringing delicious food back to the dorm every day.
Cao Yu has been doing this for more than half a month.
Do you know how she's managed these past two weeks?
Ice Empress glared at him angrily and shouted, " That Immoral Dog was right! You really aren't human!"
She simply closed her eyes and ignored him, figuring out the noise would only bother her more.
But the delicious aroma kept wafting into her nose, making it difficult to calm down.
Cao Yu even foolishly approached her, standing right in front of her eating kebabs, the aroma of the grilled meat growing stronger.
Ice Empress's face was contorted with rage, and unable to bear it any longer, she forcefully shoved Cao Yu.
A loud "boom" followed.
It slammed heavily onto the floor.
But before he could react, Ice Empress had already closed in.
She pressed down on his thighs, then reached out with her two fair hands and pulled hard on Cao Yu's ears.
"Do you still dare? Hmm!"
He lay there on the floor, while Ice Empress looked down at him. Their faces were so close that he could clearly see her eyelashes, one by one, seemingly trembling with her anger.
"Get a little closer, and I'll tell you." A barely perceptible smile appeared on Cao Yu's lips. His words clearly didn't arouse any suspicion from Ice Empress, and she released her grip on Cao Yu's ear.
She slowly bent down, her ear gradually getting closer.
At that moment, Cao Yu also raised his head. Just as Ice Empress was about to think that he was going to say something to him, he felt a wetness on his face.
It was also itchy, but when Ice Empress realized what was happening, she saw that Cao Yu had already kissed her face.
"Haha, you've fallen for their trap!" Before Ice Empress could react, Cao Yu quickly got up and ran towards the dormitory door.
Just as he was about to step out of the room, he added, "Take these skewers and eat them, don't go hungry."
"And you're not fat at all, I was just lying to you."
That despicable guy!
He actually dared to kiss me! Who gave him the courage?
Ice Empress really didn't expect Cao Yu to become so bold today. She felt that she had to rethink her perception of Cao Yu again today.
Wiping away the marks on her face, and recalling the scene just now, Ice Empress felt a strange sensation, which she quickly dismissed.
Even eating that bag of kebabs wasn't enough to vent his anger; he was planning to teach Cao Yu a lesson when he got back.
In the blink of an eye, three or five seasons have passed, and Cao Yu has been at the Sun Moon Imperial Soul Engineering Academy for nearly two and a half years.
My three-year exchange student life here is also coming to an end.
In a few months, I will officially say goodbye to this college.
" Cao Yu, it's your turn."
"Oh, coming."
He is now facing the assessment for becoming Level 8 Soul Engineer.
He had failed once before, but this time he was quite confident of succeeding.
After all, his cultivation level had already reached the seventy-fourth level Soul Saint, with Soul Power as a foundation.
However, he spends most of his time on dating and researching Soul Tool; otherwise, if he had focused on cultivation, his improvement would have been much greater than this.
Half an hour later, Xuan Ziwen smiled with satisfaction and then personally helped him put on the Level 8 Soul Engineer badge that was placed to the side.
It glittered golden in the sunlight.
" Cao Yu, congratulations on successfully passing the Level 8 Soul Engineer assessment. Remember to keep your badge safe!"
"Thank you, Teacher Xuan." Then, Cao Yu added, "By the way, Teacher Xuan, when are you planning to come? How about you come with me after I graduate?"
Over the course of two and a half years, Cao Yu finally persuaded Xuan Ziwen to join the research institute. In fact, the real key reason was that the alluring scientific and technological knowledge captivated Xuan Ziwen.
Unlike Soul Tool Soul Tool, it can produce similar effects, and in some aspects, it even surpasses them.
As a true scientific research fanatic, Xuan Ziwen was naturally very excited and even eager to unveil the mystery of these scientific products.
His intuition told him that if these things were thoroughly studied, the world would be greatly changed.
"I might go a little later, after all, I still have a lot of miscellaneous things to take care of." Xuan Ziwen didn't back out halfway, and he had even drafted his resignation letter long ago, so he could leave without any worries in six months at the latest.
To be honest, he was still a little reluctant to leave, after all, he had worked at the college for so many years and had developed some attachment to it.
"Alright, then I'll wait for good news from Teacher Xuan." Cao Yu nodded in agreement, and then left with Meng Hongchen.
However, the two remained silent on the way, and Meng Hongchen was much quieter than usual that day.
She knew Cao Yu would be leaving in a few months, so she felt quite sad.
There weren't many people in the corridor, as most were still busy preparing for the assessment, while those who had passed had already returned to their dormitories to rest.
He could feel Meng Hongchen gripping his hand tighter and tighter, and he could hear her soft voice in his ear.
" Cao Yu, will you come back?"
Looking up at him, Meng Hongchen seemed a little sad; she had never been a girl who hid her emotions.
They often wear their feelings on their sleeves, making them easily noticeable.
This is also one of the things Cao Yu liked about her: her straightforwardness and lack of beating around the bush.
There's no need to try to guess what she's thinking.
He patted her head, then looked down at Meng Hongchen and said, "Are you silly? How could I bear to let you go?"
"Why don't you come back to Shrek with me? What do you say?"
Meng Hongchen was visibly taken aback for a moment, then said softly, "Grandfather won't agree."
"How will you know if you don't try?" Cao Yu pinched her cheek and chuckled softly, "If Grandfather agrees, would you be willing to come with me?"
