111. Asaka Yuna
"You received a love letter?"
Kiana asked casually during lunch.
Sitting behind Yun Ling and frequently observing his every move, she naturally knew he had received a love letter.
Mei looked at Yun Ling curiously. How could someone with such a terrible personality receive a love letter?
However, his terrible personality seemed to be evident only to those close to him, and given his limited social circle, perhaps he was considered a decent person by others.
Yun Ling paused, his hand still holding his chopsticks, upon hearing Kiana's question.
"Kiana, are you paying so much attention to me?" Yun Ling looked at her with a teasing gaze, a sly smile playing on his lips.
"Don't flatter yourself. I just saw you holding a pink envelope this morning, smiling pervertedly, that's why I guessed." Kiana already had a plan.
"Perverted? You actually used such a word to describe a handsome man?" Yun Ling clutched his chest, looking utterly shocked.
"Let's talk about the love letter," Mei said with a gossipy look on her face, though a little worried.
"I don't know if it counts as a love letter, but you two can take a look." Yun Ling handed the two girls the 'love letter' from his pocket.
They hurriedly opened it, their expressions gradually turning to astonishment.
It was less of a love letter and more of a somewhat morbid expression of affection...
And the object of that affection was Yun Ling?
"Did you flirt with some girl outside, and she came knocking on your door?" Kiana asked tentatively.
"Mei can vouch for me, I'm chaste and never flirt with girls, except for the two of you," Yun Ling said, gazing at them affectionately.
"Pah!" The two girls spat simultaneously.
However, Mei could testify that she basically knew Yun Ling's whereabouts and that it was unlikely he was involved with other girls.
"She asked you to meet her at a coffee shop this afternoon. Are you going?" Mei noticed the agreed-upon location.
"I'll go see. If she's good-looking, I think I can add her to my harem," Yun Ling said half-jokingly.
But the two people opposite him didn't think he was joking.
A strong sense of crisis began to rise in their hearts.
"Truly, Yun Ling is a scumbag," Mei said coldly.
"Heh, very much in line with my perception of you," Kiana sneered.
"You two... are you jealous?" Yun Ling blinked.
"No!"*2
The two shouted in unison.
"Funny, who do you think you are? Why would I be jealous of you?"
"You scumbag Yun Ling, don't overestimate yourself."
An awkward silence fell. Mei silently snatched the food that was supposed to be Yun Ling's, while Kiana would grab whatever food Yun Ling was about to pick up before he could.
Even with their mouths stuffed full, they kept stuffing, looking as cute as hamsters.
Yun Ling stopped eating and kept watching them with a slightly meaningful smile.
The two girls felt a little uneasy under his gaze and buried their heads in their food, avoiding his gaze.
After school, Yun Ling went ahead and headed towards the coffee shop.
"Tch, you're so impatient!" Mei and Kiana both felt a surge of anger.
However, they had no power to stop him.
In essence, before anything was revealed, they were just relatively good friends.
"Mei, I want to go get some coffee, wanna come?" Kiana asked tentatively.
"What a coincidence, I'm thinking of getting some coffee and dessert today too," Mei agreed without hesitation.
The two instantly reached an agreement, linked arms, and headed towards the coffee shop where Yun Ling was.
Yun Ling had already seen the girl who had a crush on him. As for why he recognized her at a glance…
Because the way she looked at him was so intense, it was as if she wanted to devour him whole.
She was wearing the uniform of Chiba Academy, with a beautiful face, light purple hair that fell naturally over her shoulders, and emerald green eyes filled with adoration and fervor.
When she saw Yun Ling arrive, her cheeks flushed, and her breathing became a little rapid.
If you had to describe it… she looked like she was about to climax.
"Hello, I'm Yun Ling," Yun Ling greeted the girl and sat down opposite her.
"Hmph, hypocrite." Kiana wanted to criticize Yun Ling every time she saw him.
"Hello, what would you like to drink?" The waiter approached.
"Two mixed coffees and two tiramisu, please," Mei ordered skillfully, then she and Kiana secretly observed the other side of the room.
Yun Ling wasn't his usual frivolous self, and his signature smirk was gone. He actually looked quite handsome.
Or perhaps he was naturally good-looking, and with the system's enhancements and his cultivation of the 'Taixu Sword Qi,' both his looks and demeanor had improved even further.
It's just that when he was with Kiana and Mei, these qualities were usually masked by his terrible personality.
Or perhaps his terrible personality was even more pronounced, causing them to subconsciously overlook it.
"He...hello...I'm...Asaka...Yu...Yuna."
Yuna spoke, exhaling hot breath, her appearance becoming increasingly strange.
This made Yun Ling wonder if the other person was carrying out some kind of 'master's task'.
"Sorry... I'm a little nervous..."
Seeing Yun Ling's increasingly strange expression, she quickly took a deep breath to calm herself.
"Hello, Asaka Yuno-san."
"No... no! My name is... Asaka Yuna..." Asaka Yuna immediately shook her head, explaining hastily.
"Hmm, I'll call you Asaka-san, emmm, you're quite different from the style you portrayed in the letters."
Yun Ling looked at the shy girl in front of him, completely unable to connect her with the boldly affectionate girl in the letters.
"That's because!" Asaka Yuna suddenly stood up, then the next second, she seemed to realize her reaction was a bit too much, and immediately shrank back.
"Because... I like you so much..." Asaka Yuna whispered, her cheeks already flushed, her head lowered as she fiddled with her fingers.
"I believe this is our first meeting, at least I have absolutely no recollection of you."
Yun Ling wasn't in a hurry to refuse or agree; he was more interested in why Asaka Yuna liked him.
"Well...because I used to secretly watch you..." Asaka Yuna explained.
"Yun Ling...you're so cool! And so capable! You dare to confront those people head-on, even when facing school bullying, you bravely fight back...so...so..."
So, she was also a victim of school bullying?
Yun Ling seemed to understand why she liked him.
