Watch out! Something's wrong with this guard.

Chapter 173: Encounter with the Miss

Avoiding the crowd, Lu Yunshi wandered aimlessly along the academy's paths, still searching for a place to stay. "Oh God, can't you help your grandson? Please give me a place to stay right now!"

"Humph!"

Lu Yunshi scratched his head, lowered his head, and continued walking forward. "How about I go hang out with the second brother? No... the second brother is such a ladies' man, there are probably a lot of people around here."

"Humph!"

"Sixth and seventh brothers? Never mind, they snore when they sleep." He continued walking forward, head down in thought.

"Humph!"

"Ninth brother? No way, that guy's too noisy." He continued walking forward, head down in thought.

"Cough cough!"

"Tenth brother? No way, he'll eat me alive tonight."

"Lu Yunshi, if you dare to ignore me again, I'll kill you." A chilling voice came from the side, and Lu Yunshi froze on the spot. He gave an ugly smile and turned around to look at Lu Yunxi, who had been following him for a while.

"Oh, Miss Lu, it's been a long time!"

"Hello, first place." Standing next to Lu Yunxi, Senior Sister Li greeted Lu Yunshi with a smile.

Lu Yunxi walked up to Lu Yunshi with a cold face, staring down at him as if she was about to draw her sword and stab him at any moment.

"What were you whispering about just now?"

“I said… I should go back to seclusion, otherwise how can I catch up with the bright moon in my heart?” Lu Yunshi nodded vigorously after saying this, seemingly very certain of the answer.

After he finished speaking, Lu Yunshi looked down and found that Lu Yunxi was standing on a rock. He almost couldn't help but laugh.

"Hmm?" A sharp, piercing gaze swept over him, and Lu Yunshi immediately held his tongue.

Then, Lu Yunxi's voice came through. "You dare to lie to me? You clearly can't find anywhere, yet you still dare to deceive me?"

"Haha, so you heard everything." Lu Yunshi said as expected.

A beautiful smile appeared on Lu Yunxi's lips as she bent down slightly and stared into Lu Yunshi's eyes.

"Yes, just as I thought. Even if you get first place in the assessment, you'll still look pathetic. But since the assessment, I've rarely seen you being so servile. Now that you've gotten first place, have you become too bold? Forgot who you are?"

"Of course not," Lu Yunshi assured, patting his chest.

"It remains to be seen. Come with me first and let me prove it. Anyway, you're just a dog with nowhere to go right now, so you should have plenty of time."

Before Lu Yunshi could react, Senior Sister Li, standing beside him, was stunned. "Huh? Junior Sister Lu, something's not right. Didn't we come here today for you to comfort me? I didn't even make it into the top 100 in the assessment."

Lu Yunshi's eyes lit up.

From now on, you'll be my hero. I love you so much, Senior Sister Li!

"..." Hearing Senior Sister Li's words, Lu Yunxi fell silent, her brows furrowing deeper and deeper, looking angry. "I... um..."

Although Senior Sister Li was heartbroken, she was always good at reading people's expressions. She chuckled twice and immediately changed the subject.

"But then again, I forgot to feed the duck I cooked yesterday, so let's make it another time."

"Okay, then let's do it next time." Lu Yunxi nodded slightly, agreeing to the suggestion.

Senior Sister Li, you have lost my admiration and are no longer my hero.

The light in Lu Yunshi's eyes gradually faded, and he squatted in the corner of his heart, starting to draw circles.

At this moment, Lu Yunxi turned her gaze to Lu Yunshi, the meaning of which was self-evident. Lu Yunshi immediately smiled, and the two walked side by side.

Watching the two figures disappear into the sunset, Senior Sister Li sighed and muttered to herself with a worried expression.

"If you two can't get together, you'll be letting me down. But Junior Sister Lu, if you keep going like this, I'm afraid the only way you can be with him is to break his legs and tie him to your side?"

Meanwhile, Lu Yunxi, who was halfway there, suddenly asked a question. "You performed well in this assessment."

"Sigh, I was also surprised. I actually got first place," Lu Yunshi said helplessly.

"Hmm." Lu Yunxi nodded slightly, then added, "But I'm also curious, why did Shuang admit defeat? Could you explain this to me?"

“Ah…” Lu Yunshi pondered for a moment. “Because… I helped her and became her friend.”

Lu Yunxi scoffed. "A member of the Holy Clan, helping her? A friend? Putting these three words together is really hard to understand. Perhaps I should praise you, Lu Yunshi, for your great abilities, always having women around you?"

"No need." Lu Yunshi swallowed, sweating profusely.

"Lu Yunshi!" Lu Yunxi suddenly stopped, raised her hand and grabbed Lu Yunshi's chin, staring straight at him as she said, "You better not force me to break your limbs, because then... you'll only be a toy."

For some reason, Lu Yunshi felt that Lu Yunxi seemed to have a real thought of breaking his limbs, which made him feel a chill.

However, at that moment, an unexpected figure appeared in front of the two.

"Lu Yunshi?"

The two turned around and saw that the person had blond hair and blue eyes; who else could it be but Shuang?

Shuang looked at the two of them, her face full of doubt, and said calmly, "Are you two acting under the influence of love? Is there love between you? What does it feel like?"

"What nonsense are you talking about?" Lu Yunxi released her grip immediately upon hearing Shuang's words, her cheeks flushing slightly, and her pupils showing a rare moment of panic. "How could I possibly like someone like this...someone like this?"

"Isn't that right? So you don't love him?" Shuang still seemed puzzled and confused.

“Of course,” Lu Yunxi said decisively.

“Hmm…that makes sense.” Shuang nodded slightly, then continued speaking to herself. “I read in a book that two people who have feelings of love will make more intimate moves under the drive of lust. You two probably don’t qualify yet.”

"What kind of weird book are you reading?" Lu Yunshi rubbed his temples, his head aching.

Lu Yunxi looked at Shuang with a strange expression. "What kind of crazy woman are you?"

After saying that, Lu Yunxi didn't intend to continue talking to Shuang. She was about to pull Lu Yunshi away when Shuang caught up with her after just two steps and asked in a questioning tone.

"Can I follow you? Although there shouldn't be any love between you, I feel that the relationship between you is... intriguing, and I want to observe it."

As soon as she finished speaking, Lu Yunxi stopped and let out a cold laugh. "So you've finally revealed your true colors? You shamelessly want to follow me for this stinking man? Then come on, I'll see what tricks you have up your sleeve."

Shuang was somewhat puzzled and didn't quite understand the meaning of Lu Yunxi's words, but she understood the 'most crucial' information: the other party had agreed.
