"I mean, us spending time together."
"Don't overthink it."
A hint of unnaturalness flashed across Gu Yue's face, and her tone became a little hurried as she said,
"Why do you always overthink things in your little head?"
"Oh, alright then."
Tang Luochuan looked at her current expression, his face filled with unconcealed amusement, and chuckled.
"Hmm..."
"Actually, you don't need to explain so much on purpose."
Is there a possibility that the more flustered Gu Yue explained, the stranger it seemed?
"I'm just afraid you'll overthink..."
"Alright, Gu Yue, you decide."
"Where should we go now?"
Not dwelling on the topic, Tang Luochuan blinked and asked. Since she had called him, she must have a plan for what to do next, right?
He believed that as the Silver Dragon King, she couldn't be too unreliable.
"Let's go out..."
"Just walk around together."
Hearing this, Gu Yue fell silent for a moment. She had only thought about taking him away from those people earlier. As for where to go specifically, she hadn't had time to think.
However, since they had this rare time alone, going for a walk wasn't a bad idea.
"I don't think you've explored Donghai City much, have you?"
Gu Yue smiled faintly and said softly.
He had lived in Aolai City before, and Na'er had accompanied him in exploring it, but in Donghai City...
It was clearly her turn to appear.
"Yes, okay."
"Then let's go."
Tang Luochuan didn't refuse, nodding with a smile.
It wasn't until night fell that the two returned to the campus. After waving goodbye, they each returned to their dormitories.
"Boss, you're back."
Inside Dorm 123, a group of people were huddled together. Seeing the newcomer, Zhang Yangzi immediately said with a smile.
"Hmm."
"What are you doing, so serious?"
Looking at them as if they were discussing something, Tang Luochuan asked with curiosity on his face, "What are they doing?"
"Boss, we're studying the senior students."
"After all, the promotion competition isn't just a competition among us freshmen. There's no one stronger than us in the entire first year, so of course, we need to focus on the senior years..."
Zhang Yangzi was the first to speak.
"That's right, Boss."
Wang Jinxi and Wei Xiaofeng exchanged glances and echoed.
The promotion competition starts with the weakest class challenging upwards, like fighting from Class Five to Class One. But now, they had no opponents in the first year.
And they would undoubtedly face the second, third, and fourth years, and even... the fifth year.
"Our goal is the third or fourth year, and we'll contend for the fifth year."
Zhang Yangzi's eyes gleamed.
With their combat power, even facing the senior years wouldn't be a problem. Even in the fifth year, there were only two Spirit Elders in the entire year.
A class could send at most four people to battle, and here, Boss and Gu Yue alone had cultivation close to Spirit Elder. Plus, his and Jinxi's Spirit Fusion Skill...
Before the fifth year, they would undoubtedly sweep through with irresistible force.
"This challenge competition..."
"It really has no difficulty."
Hearing this, Tang Luochuan was a little dumbfounded and didn't say anything. Challenge competitions and various other competitions were truly old traditions of this "Competition Continent."
However, Zhang Yangzi was indeed right. With their combat power, they were at the pinnacle of strength in the entire Donghai Academy. They really could cut through the senior years from the first year.
But the academy would certainly not allow such a situation to occur, which was why Zero Class appeared in the original work. Others truly seemed somewhat insufficient in front of them.
"You guys think about it carefully, but don't neglect your cultivation for the sake of the challenge competition. That's the real top priority."
Tang Luochuan looked at the two in front of him and said directly.
"Don't worry, Boss, never."
"However..."
Zhang Yangzi nodded first, then looked at him with a smile on his face, which made Tang Luochuan feel a bit flustered.
"What's wrong?"
Tang Luochuan subconsciously asked.
"Boss, you and Gu Yue Jie went out..."
"How was it?"
Zhang Yangzi had a gossipy expression on his face. According to his understanding and deduction, Boss's outing earlier was considered a date with Gu Yue Jie, wasn't it?
Two nine-year-old Level 28 geniuses...
They were indeed a perfect match!
Hearing Zhang Yangzi's words, Wang Jinxi and Wei Xiaofeng also turned their gazes, their eyes filled with nothing but a strong desire for gossip.
"Nothing happened."
"We just went for a walk."
Tang Luochuan heard this and shook his head with a smile.
Children nowadays were precocious. It was understandable for Gu Yue, that Little Silver Dragon King, but even genuinely nine-year-old children were like this.
They didn't even think about what a nine-year-old could do when they went out.
Regarding such impossible situations, the Dragon Kingdom he was in in his previous life had a complete set of...
"Just went for a walk, nothing happened?"
"Hehe, we almost believed you."
The three smiled mysteriously, revealing a slightly mischievous expression as they teased him.
Boss's gossip...
It was just so good!
It was a pity that Tang Wulin wasn't in the same dorm as them; otherwise, everyone could have enjoyed the gossip together right now.
Meanwhile, in Dorm 105.
"Xie Xie, are you cultivating right now? Can you chat with me for a bit?"
"I'm really curious about something."
Tang Wulin's face showed a thoughtful expression as he looked at Xie Xie's bed and said softly.
...
Xie Xie lay on his bed, remaining silent, even quietly turning over. He wouldn't bother with this guy today.
As for the reason...
His face still hadn't healed from the swelling!
"Xie Xie."
"Do you think that girl named Gu Yue really likes Brother? What's the situation with them..."
"What exactly is going on?"
Tang Wulin's large eyes sparkled, and he couldn't help but feel a little anticipation in his heart.
He actually never had a habit of gossiping, but Brother's was clearly different...
He really wanted to hear this gossip!
And before returning to the dorm, he had already thoroughly discussed this issue with Zhang Yangzi and the others. Their final conclusion was—
He was going to have a sister-in-law.
...
Xie Xie hesitated to speak. He actually didn't really want to talk to him, but if it was about Boss's issues in that regard.
"I think..."
"You can't say they're a match made in heaven, only that they're a perfect match."
"That's the situation."
Xie Xie finally couldn't hold back, his face serious as he spoke directly.
No one disliked gossip, let alone gossip that they could witness firsthand.
"Then..."
"Will she be my sister-in-law?"
Tang Wulin asked expectantly.
"I think..."
"She will be."
"Brother, will Gu Yue Jie be my sister-in-law?"
"Huh?"
That night, looking at the little boy who wasn't sleeping late at night, his face full of anticipation as he boldly spoke, Tang Luochuan's face showed surprise.
Such a topic...
Would his well-behaved younger brother ask something like that?
Are you really my brother, Tang Wulin?
