Chapter 114: Chapter 112: Xuan Ziyuan’s Cold Heart Begins to Thaw, Chu Feng Swears Allegiance to His Territory!

Xuan Ziyuan’s figure attracted many people’s attention.

"Isn’t that President Xuan, what is he doing standing there?"

"That’s Wang Xuerui across from him. Is he going to confess his feelings?"

"The atmosphere doesn’t seem right, it doesn’t look like a confession, it looks like they’re about to fight!"

"Who is that guy behind Wang Xuerui?"

As the surrounding people whispered among themselves, Miao Ling, who had intentionally hidden in the crowd to avoid being caught by Xuan Ziyuan, turned her eyes and said in a low voice:

"That guy is the pretty boy Wang Xuerui is with, Xuan Ziyuan is here to catch them in the act! Let’s go watch the drama unfold!"

The onlookers were shocked by her words, "That explosive? Hurry, hurry, let’s go watch!"

"Let’s go together, I want the firsthand scoop!"

"Hahaha, I want to see bloodshed!"

Stirred up by Miao Ling, a crowd quickly surrounded them.

Some students, devoted to martial arts, rolled their eyes at the news and bypassed this group of nosy people.

...

The watched Wang Xuerui and Xuan Ziyuan, however, paid no heed to others as they were locked in an inexplicable standoff.

One party was cold and angry, like boiling ice water, while the other was merely indifferent, inspecting Chu Feng expressionlessly from head to toe.

Chu Feng, feeling uneasy under Xuan Ziyuan’s deathly stare, gently tugged at Wang Xuerui’s clothes and asked, "Ms. Xuerui, who is this guy?"

Before Wang Xuerui could respond, Xuan Ziyuan’s gaze shifted slightly, and a hint of life suddenly flickered in his frozen, cold heart.

Ms. Xuerui?

He calls Wang Xuerui, ’sister’?

Does that mean, this is Wang Xuerui’s brother?

Not her lover?!

At that moment, Wang Xuerui angrily answered Chu Feng’s question, "His name is Xuan Ziyuan. He is the vice president of Yan University’s Martial Arts Association and has been secretly in love with your sister for a long time.

"I had not noticed before, but this guy is also a stalker!

"I saw him earlier near the dorm area, and now he has followed me here too!"

Xuan Ziyuan’s face turned red upon hearing this, trembling with shame and anger.

Twice tipped off by Miao Ling, and twice his thoughts, which he had thought well-concealed, were exposed by Wang Xuerui...

He was no fool—fools couldn’t even get into Yan University and would have been weeded out already—he had realized that his so-called concealment was a joke.

Thus he inferred that his secret crush on Wang Xuerui must already be an open secret, as clear as a flea on a bald head, known to every man and dog in Yan University.

And yet, he had been playing the fool all this time!

Every time he confronted Wang Xuerui, he wondered how many people were secretly watching his drama unfold behind his back!

And not even one person had warned him, just like the bunch of bastards around him!

This role of vice president was utterly pointless!

No, he would have to settle accounts with those bastards in the association later!

But, that was a matter for later.

For now, the most urgent task was to clarify to Wang Xuerui that he was not a peeping tom!

Also, his reputation in her eyes was probably terrible, so he needed to try to build a good relationship with her brother to work some lateral influence.

Now he just needed someone to take the blame... Miao Ling, it’s going to be you!

...

Although his mental turmoil was intense, Xuan Ziyuan’s mind worked efficiently, completing this mass of mental activities in an extremely short span of time.

Xuan Ziyuan’s sharp mouth corners suddenly began to twitch violently, as if possessed.

Then, under the bizarre gazes of Wang Xuerui and the crowd, he desperately squeezed out a twisted smile.

The onlookers were dumbfounded—Xuan Ziyuan, the famous cultivation robot, could actually smile?

With a rigid smile, Xuan Ziyuan slowly said, "No, Wang Xuerui has misunderstood me. I’m not a stalker.

"It was Miao Ling who found me and told me that you were seen around campus with an unfamiliar male student. That’s why I came to check."

He decisively threw Miao Ling under the bus, sacrificing her to salvage their relationship.

In the crowd, Miao Ling’s face stretched longer than a donkey’s, gleaming darkly.

Damn, this guy has no loyalty! I tip you off, and you turn around and sell me out?

Bastard!

Wang Xuerui’s sharp gaze swept over the crowd, immediately focusing on her, a cold killing intent lingering around her, making her shiver uncontrollably.

The message was clear, "You just wait, you little snitch!"

After finding the main culprit, Wang Xuerui looked at Xuan Ziyuan with furrowed brows and impatience, "Who I bring onto campus is none of your business. Aren’t you overstepping your bounds?"

Xuan Ziyuan, using True Force to suppress the blazing heat on his cheeks, barely managed a smile, "You know, I’ve always cared about you, and if you bring someone in, of course, I’d be concerned.

"Is this student your younger brother?"

Murmurs of agitation rose from the crowd, "Holy shit, is Xuan Ziyuan actually confessing?"

"Who said Xuan Ziyuan is a Cultivation Robot? That was rather slick, always caring about you~"

Under the scrutinizing gaze of the crowd, Xuan Ziyuan remained unruffled, at least outwardly calm.

Yes, even though his flaws were exposed in public, he did not become irate. Instead, he decided to make his pursuit public.

A Martial Artist, after all, must be brave, unafraid of hardships, always forging ahead to conquer and win!

So what if it’s embarrassing, pursuing one’s happiness is what matters!

He pretended to inquire about Chu Feng nonchalantly, and even smiled at him—an unprecedented friendly gesture.

...

However, Chu Feng did not appreciate his goodwill and instead furrowed his brows, looking serious.

Well, well, the love rival is knocking at the door, huh.

What do you mean by smiling at me? Trying to intimidate me?

The people around here suggest this guy is the vice president of Yan University’s Martial Arts Association.

Is the Martial Arts Association a department of the student council?

Upon hearing Xuan Ziyuan’s milder tone, Wang Xuerui found it hard to lash out again.

But she still disliked his overly familiar tone, and with a frown, she said:

"He’s... my younger brother, and we don’t need your concern.

"If there’s nothing else, please leave! I need to take him for treatment."

She wanted to get rid of Xuan Ziyuan quickly and not reveal her relationship with Chu Feng in front of him.

Because she feared that if Xuan Ziyuan knew about their affair, he might hold a grudge and use his connections at school to trouble Chu Feng.

As the top scholar, Chu Feng already had enough enemies.

She didn’t want to add to Chu Feng’s burdens.

Upon hearing her words, Xuan Ziyuan was relieved and was about to excuse himself and leave.

But the bit of emotional intelligence he possessed made him stop in his tracks, thinking he should probably... care about her brother?

He hesitantly asked, "Your brother is injured? Is it serious? I have some Elixirs here..."

Wang Xuerui’s expression softened a bit, after all, one does not slap a smiling face: "No need, it’s fine, not serious, thank you for your concern."

Xuan Ziyuan nodded, then awkwardly added, "Is your brother a new student this year? Would he like to join the Martial Arts Association?

"I could put in a word, and get him in without a test..."

While he had resolved to pursue Wang Xuerui openly,

his long-dormant EQ, nearly frozen, failed to pick up on her tone that kept others at arm’s length. Instead, he thought of seeing his good deed through.

Wang Xuerui, upon hearing this, didn’t outright refuse, somewhat tempted.

The bar for the Martial Arts Association was high, accepting only the top fifty ranked combatants in each grade, offering tutors and senior students to provide personal guidance to members.

She thought joining the Martial Arts Association might help Chu Feng’s growth.

With the backing of the Martial Arts Association, if he could foster good relations with senior members, others might think twice before challenging him, keeping their aggressiveness in check.

...

While Wang Xuerui was considering and remained silent, Chu Feng was feeling uneasy inside.

Xuan Ziyuan, clearly with an ulterior motive for Wang Xuerui, was shamelessly trying to ingratiate himself.

Chu Feng, who already considered Wang Xuerui his girlfriend, could he tolerate this?

Like hell he could!

And Xuan Ziyuan even wanted him to join the Martial Arts Association? Impossible!

How could he possibly join his rival’s organization!

So, he suddenly stepped forward, under the astonished gazes of everyone...

He stretched out his arm and snugly wrapped it around Wang Xuerui’s slim waist!

With a lazy smile on his face, he said to the stunned Xuan Ziyuan, "Thanks for your kindness, Senior, but no need.

"Please step aside, we two have been apart for a long time, and need some, good, quality, alone time!"
