After lingering for a while at the foot of the back hill, Su Chen strolled back to the villa. Finally having mastered the basics of the Wind Shadow Step, his mood was exceptionally light and cheerful, and he humd an unknown tune.
As he passed by the front living room, he saw several won chatting inside, so he walked in.
"Looks like you're in a good mood!"
Hearing Su Chen still humming, Qi ng couldn't help but laugh.
These days, this guy had locked himself in his room almost every day, and even at night, he hadn't misbehaved around them, which made the won a bit worried. After all, he seed too different from usual!
Seeing him now seemingly back to normal, they were finally a bit relieved!
"Naturally!"
Su Chen laughed and sat down among the won.
Once he sat down, everyone except Huang nglei — Qi ng, Du Hanbing, and Eniel — was in trouble!
Especially since Su Chen had been behaving for several days and was now in a relaxed mood, he naturally wouldn't let the won off the hook!
Soon, the won were blushing and flustered, and they all fled the scene!
They were sure of it; that familiar rascal was back...
.....
In the next couple of days, Su Chen temporarily put other things aside and began cultivating the Nine Yang Divine Technique!
During this ti, he had comprehended the Thousand Hand Seal, gained so understanding of the Elixir Chapter of the Laws Forbidden To, and mastered the basics of the Wind Shadow Step. The only thing he was behind on was his own realm!
After all, he hadn't truly stepped into the Kaiyuan Realm, and the Kaiyuan Realm is a landmark of a martial artist reaching a new level, so naturally, Su Chen wanted to break through as soon as possible!
Nonetheless, he wasn't under much ntal pressure in this regard. He knew it was just a matter of ti, sooner or later, with no significant issue!
.....
That afternoon, while he was cultivating, his phone suddenly rang. He picked it up casually and was sowhat stunned by what he saw!
Unexpectedly, the call was from Xu Xinran!
Why did this little girl suddenly call?
Su Chen was so surprised because ever since the two of them had so ambiguous monts at Belle Group last year, after Xu Xinran returned to Jianghai, the two hadn't been in touch by phone for over half a year!
Sotis when Su Chen thought of this little girl, he wanted to call her, but for so reason, he never did...
Actually, he had understood what he felt for Xu Xinran, the police beauty of Jianghai, during the ti she stayed at Jianghai Manor.
It's just that back then, Lin Ruoxue wasn't aware of his relationships with other won outside, let alone understanding them, so Su Chen could only play dumb...
Honestly speaking, didn't he have a slight crush on this police beauty?
After all, Xu Xinran was a super beauty and quite kind, even if she seed a bit "unreasonable" at tis, it added a cute charm to her!
Since she called now, Su Chen didn't overthink and just answered the call!
"Miss Xu, why did you suddenly think of calling ?"
Su Chen deliberately said with a lighthearted laugh.
"I'm at your front door, co out quickly!"
On the other end, Xu Xinran's voice ca through directly.
Su Chen was taken aback when he heard this; this little girl was here?!
He quickly walked out, only to see Xu Xinran casually dressed, standing at the door. As a breeze blew by, her hair fluttered slightly!
At that mont, Xu Xinran was dressed in a white, modest T-shirt on top, and low-rise, slim-fit jeans on the bottom, revealing a slim waist without an ounce of excess fat!
Her outfit flaunted her curvaceous figure and exuded a vibe of a modern urban beauty!
Seeing this, Su Chen's eyes lit up, but he imdiately noticed the two large suitcases by her feet!
"What's this...?"
Su Chen hesitantly asked.
"I'm going to stay here, you don't mind, do you?"
Upon seeing Su Chen, Xu Xinran imdiately said, as if seeking consent, though her tone sounded more like a statent!
"Not at all."
What else could Su Chen say besides that?
"That's more like it. Now, help carry my luggage inside!"
Xu Xinran glanced at Su Chen and instructed.
Hearing this, Su Chen thought, has this little girl been treating like a servant just because we hadn't seen each other for a while?
Yet, touching his nose, he still obediently took one in each hand and brought Xu Xinran's luggage into the courtyard!
What he didn't know was that Xu Xinran was deliberately putting on such an act to suppress her own nervousness and anxiety!
Hearing noises from outside, Qi ng and Huang nglei ca out from the front of the villa!
But upon seeing Xu Xinran, they couldn't help but display amused expressions, and were sowhat speechless!
They thought to themselves: How many won has this rascal hooked up with?
Su Chen naturally introduced everyone to each other. At this mont, Xu Xinran wasn't as forward as she was with Su Chen before, sowhat reserved as she greeted Qi ng and the others...
After a brief introduction, Su Chen took Xu Xinran to choose a room to settle down, although he wasn't quite sure why this little girl had suddenly co over.
Afterward, Su Chen took her to the back of the villa to et Du Hanbing and Eniel!
Seeing Su Chen bring yet another beautiful woman, they had similar thoughts to Qi ng and the others!
Soon, everyone gathered in the living room at the back of the villa, and Qi ng and the others ca too.
Although they had so complaints about Su Chen, they remained friendly with Xu Xinran, which was a tradition of the villa!
When they learned that Xu Xinran was Xia Qiuru's cousin, they were pleasantly surprised and even more welcoming!
After all, having that connection with Xia Qiuru made everyone feel like part of the family!
Though Xu Xinran and Xia Qiuru were not direct cousins but rather distant ones, their blood relation was quite diluted!
This was obvious, given that Xia Qiuru's family was from a remote rural area, while Xu Xinran's family was in the bustling tropolis of Jianghai.
When they used to live together, they were more like close friends, much like the relationship between Ye i and Xiao Yaning!
Xia Qiuru was just slightly older by a year or two and tended to take care of Xu Xinran in daily life.
The warmth of the other won gradually eased Xu Xinran's nervousness...
When Xia Qiuru returned in the evening and saw that Xu Xinran was here, she was also very pleasantly surprised!
She had always known Xu Xinran's feelings and had already told her about the situation at the villa!
She was happy for Xu Xinran when she finally got together with that rascal Su Chen!
Of course, there was also a bit of envy...
