Chapter 56: One mustn’t lack a wary heart.

Translator: GodBrandy Editor: Kurisu

On the way, Zhao Yaya suddenly asked, “Shuhang, the other two guys earlier on… I should have never met them before when I sent you to College Town during the start of the semester? How did they know me?”

Song Shuhang blinked his eyes. “Hahaha, I think they should’ve heard of you from Tubo and the other fellas and obtained your photo through some methods?”

“You’re lying, it’s too fake.” Zhao Yaya snorted. “From their expressions and way of speaking, they should have met your ‘sister’ not long ago. Also, when you had introduced me earlier on, the other guy on the side seemed visibly shocked. Clearly, it was his first time meeting me. Therefore… you should just tell me the truth. The ‘sister’ they were referring to, was it your girlfriend? Are you embarrassed to introduce us as she’s older than you?

Sister Zhao was still so strictly impartial and incorruptible. Always acting like a detective and ruthlessly exposing Song Shuhang’s lies.

“There’s no such thing. She’s really not my girlfriend. You have to believe me.” Song Shuhang immediately seriously replied.

“Hmm, it’s the truth. However… you indeed had a ‘sister’ that accompanied you leaving the male dormitory not long ago?” Zhao Yaya squinted her eyes. “How about it, have you considered the prospect of advancing beyond friendship? A love between an older woman and a younger man seem pretty great recently. Also, if you get married, a slightly older woman would know how to take care of you; I doubt auntie and uncle would object.

Damn it, to think that she had easily figured that out —Song Shuhang was dejected— also, why is having a girlfriend linked to getting married? Couldn’t there be just a pure friendship between a college guy and a girl? Must it definitely be linked with such a serious topic like marriage?

“I won’t tease you anymore, just that, you must definitely tell me the good news if you get a girlfriend. I’ll be going now.” Zhao Yaya patted Shuhang forcefully, then swiftly walked up and flagged a cab before leaving with a smile.

Song Shuhang waved while he was secretly relieved internally.

He was really unable to lie in front of Zhao Yaya because she knew him too well, and could easily see through his lies.

Luckily, she did not manage to make out any stuff related to ‘cultivation’ and himself… That’s right, after all, towards ordinary people, ‘cultivation’ was merely a product of imagination. In normal scenarios, no one would link reality with cultivation.

All in all, before he decided to fess up about ‘cultivation’ to her, he had to safeguard his secret well and not allow her to discover anything in case he brought about a disaster for her and his family.

Song Shuhang pondered internally.

Northern River’s Loose Cultivator had just warned him earlier on. He would definitely not dare to use his relatives’ lives as a joke.

Thinking of here, he once again remembered the person secretly investigating him.

Although he shouldn’t have the heart to harm others, he mustn’t lack the heart to be wary of others.

Afternoon, 6 pm. Inside of Yangde’s rental apartment

When Song Shuhang had rushed over, Lin Tubo and Gao Moumou had already been drunk with both of them hugging each other. Gao Moumou would occasionally weep while still looking somewhat deeply hurt.

As for Lin Tubo, he was hugging him and loudly comforting him and slapping his chest, guaranteeing him something.

Both of them were supposedly speaking in Chinese but Shuhang couldn’t even understand a word. Who knows how these two drunkards communicated with each other?

Li Yangde bitterly smiled and after opening the door for Shuhang, he immediately asked, “Shuhang, do you know what happened to this fella, Gao Moumou? When he came, he was more dead than alive and dragged Tubo along to drink. After drinking for a while, he started howling, saying that ‘he’s been tainted’, ‘not clean’, ‘not wanting to live anymore’… the sort of words that I can’t make heads or tails of. To be honest… for a man like him to keep shouting he’s been ‘tainted’, it really makes one scared.”

“Coincidentally,I’m aware of this incident!” Song Shuhang laughed.

Song Shuhang detailedly explained to Li Yangde what he had seen in the dormitory, but obviously concealed what Zhu Geyue told him about someone investigating him. Song Shuhang did not want his three roommates to be dragged into a dangerous situation because of him.

When Li Yangde heard the full story, his face revealed a expression of not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

“Speaking of Zhu Geyue, I do seem to have an impression of him. He should be the backbone member of our school’s newspaper department. Whereas for gender, it should be female?” Li Yangde kneaded his chin while pondering. Previously because of some ‘need’ for information, he had hacked into the school’s newspaper department, thus he was well aware of some of their important members.

“However, I had asked Gao Moumou previously if the other party’s a guy. In the end, this fella had a strange expression and shook his head in melancholy. Then, I asked if it’s a girl? His expression was even worse, but ultimately he sadly shook his head. Once again, I asked if it’s a transvestite or intersex, but then he cried and told me that that’s not it either and that I wouldn’t understand it.” Song Shuhang spoke.

“Then there’s only one possibility left… could the other party be a transgender?” Li Yangde guessed.

“Hearing you say that, it looks like there’s only this possibility left?” Song Shuhang nodded his head, and they once again looked at Gao Moumou. Pity could be seen from their eyes.

Yangde proposed, “Let’s get Old Gao drunk tonight?”

Song Shuhang nodded, “Agreed.”

Originally, his roommates were intending to head out and have a meal. However, Gao Moumou’s neither-dead-nor-alive look was simply the same as making an exhibition of himself if they were to bring him out. Therefore, Li Yangde sensibly ordered takeout and even the alcohol was delivered.

Tubo and Gao Moumou merely drank alcohol and did not eat much. Right now, both of them were already intoxicated, close to becoming a corpse each.

Song Shuhang and Li Yangde sat down while they happily enjoyed their sumptuous dinner.

“Oh right, Yangde. Our school’s going to organize a sports event? Why didn’t I know of this?” Song Shuhang enquired.

“Of course you wouldn’t know… because our class was only informed in the afternoon. At that time, you were dragged away by that strange friend of yours.” Speaking till here, Li Yangde revealed a mysterious smile. “Oh, and Shuhang, when you weren’t in class this afternoon, that female classmate called Lu Fei had even specially came over to inquire about your situation.”

“Ha?” Song Shuhang stared blankly and didn’t know what to reply for a moment.

That Miss Lu Fei, he only knew that she had shifted closer to him for a few lessons? Furthermore, he had yet to even exchange a single sentence with her, how should Shuhang be expected to react?

“Hehe.” Li Yangde laughed and spoke again. “Also… there was an interesting incident during registering for the sports event. Let me explain it to you in detail—it is said that there’s a torturous five-thousand-meter men-only run for this sports even, the type that will be incredibly tiring. No one in our class was willing to participate, therefore, ultimately everyone tried to push this around, and lastly, this duty fell upon someone who had applied for leave and wasn’t present in class. Let me give you a hint, that person’s surname is Song.”

“Can I cuss?” Song Shuhang felt as if the bulging veins on his forehead were about to bust. What the heck, it was five thousand meters, for goodness sake. One would die running, alright?

He was really unfortunate!

Eh, wait a moment. His brain didn’t manage to turn in time. If it was two days ago, he might really die from running. However, if he ran right now… merely a five-thousand-meter run, probably he’d still be alive?

“Don’t even mention cussing, it’s useless. The sports event’s participants name list has already been sent. On June 7th, all you can do is obediently run that five thousand meters. At that time, even if you are unwilling to go, someone will carry you up there. Good luck, if you manage to obtain the first place, there’ll be additional course credits!” Li Yangde craftily smiled.

“Alright, it’s just five thousand meters. These additional course credits, this Song will definitely get’em.” Song Shuhang displayed a heroic appearance.

“That’s the spirit, cheers!” Li Yangde raised his cup.

“Cheers!” suddenly, Lin Tubo who was intoxicated laughed and raised his cup. Looking at his clear eyes, he didn’t seem to be drunk?

What the f*ck, this fella was merely coaxing Gao Moumou?

A pitiful Gao Moumou was currently dead drunk on the floor. Who knows when he got drunk and how many secrets this baddie, Tubo, made him spill…

Song Shuhang raised his cups and laughed. “Cheers”

Regardless if it was for Zhao Yaya or these three scoundrels, he must be well-prepared.
