Tang Yun snorted coldly, said nothing, and headed straight for the classroom, because class was about to start in a few minutes. Su Chen quickly grabbed Xiao Xun and followed behind her.
Before entering the classroom, Tang Yun took a deep breath, squeezed out a warm smile, and then finally walked in.
Su Chen, witnessing Tang Yun's transformation in just a re few minutes, couldn't help but exclaim that indeed, won are fickle!
"Students, quiet down. I want to introduce a new classmate to everyone."
Tang Yun stood at the podium and said:
"This is our new classmate. Her na is..."
"Her na is what?"
Tang Yun had been so preoccupied with being mad at Su Chen that she forgot to ask the girl's na.
"Qin Xun."
Su Chen said with a smile, as he had just made up the na on the spot. He didn't know Xiao Xun's last na, and she didn't seem to be clear on it herself.
"Oh, the new classmate's na is Qin Xun, and I hope everyone will help her out from now on!"
As soon as Tang Yun finished speaking, all the classmates turned to look at Xiao Xun—not only was she pretty, but she also had purple hair, which was quite special!
"Su Brother, how did you get here?" At this mont, Lin Ruohan, this little girl, ca over. "Who is she to you?"
Since class hadn't started yet, Tang Yun didn't say anything.
"Ruohan, how have you been recently?"
Seeing little Ruohan again made him break into a smile.
"Pretty good, Brother Su, but you haven't told who she is?"
"She's the daughter of a friend of Brother Su. She's just arrived, so you'll have to take good care of her, okay?"
The reason he placed Xiao Xun in this class was partly because Tang Yun was a friend, after all, and also because there was the oddball little Ruohan to look out for her, which ant he could rest easy.
"No problem!" Little Ruohan declared, thumping her chest.
Imdiately after, she pinched Xiao Xun's tender cheek:
"You just stick with , little one; I've got your back!"

She looked like a little boss, yet hearing this from a girl barely in her teens made it sowhat incongruous.
Both Su Chen and Tang Yun found the scene amusing.
Not just them—Xiao Xun, looking at the girl of similar age, was sowhat puzzled as well.
In fact, both Su Chen and Tang Yun knew that with Ruohan's monstrous intellect and knowledge base, she could easily handle college already!
However, Lin Wenting was concerned that the child was still too young, and that her character was not yet well-established, which is why she hadn't sent her to the more complex environnt of higher education.
"Okay then, Xiao Xun is in your hands. I'll be taking my leave now."
Hearing the bell for class ring, Su Chen said his goodbyes and prepared to leave.
"Mhm."
Tang Yun responded with an expressionless snort.
......
That afternoon, at Jianghai South Train Station, a woman dressed in a body-hugging dress appeared sowhat anxious as she peered inside the exit.
The woman was striking in both looks and figure, a rarity. Especially in that dress, which perfectly showcased her exquisite curves.
Every passing man, without exception, took a mont to rest his gaze on her, his eyes shimring with a certain light.
"Why haven't they co yet?"
Xia Qiuru said, feeling sowhat impatient.
"Don't worry, they should be here soon."
Su Chen patted her shoulder to comfort her.
Just at that mont, Xia Qiuru's eyes lit up, and she excitedly waved her hands:
"Dad, Mom, over here!"
Su Chen also looked over at the sound, and saw an elderly couple looking at Xia Qiuru with surprised delight, their faces clearly etched with the marks of years and hardship!
The two of them were carrying a large number of packages, seven or eight in total, so they were sowhat staggering and struggling as they walked.
As soon as they erged from the exit, Su Chen and Xia Qiuru took the packages from them.
"Thank you, thank you. You must be little Su, right?"
Xia Qiuru's mother asked, sizing up Su Chen with her eyes.
Xia Qiuru imdiately beca a bit shy, for she knew all too well that her mother was looking at Su Chen with the eyes of a mother-in-law assessing her future son-in-law.
"Yes, I'm Su Chen, Auntie. Was the journey here tiring?"
Su Chen said with a smile.
"Not tiring, we were sitting the whole ti."
Su Chen made a good first impression on Xia Qiuru's mother.
Xia Qiuru's father glanced at Su Chen and thought he seed quite decent, not paying him too much attention afterward; instead, he started inquiring about Xia Qiuru's work and studies.
For the next two days, except for the nights, Su Chen spent most of his ti with Xia Qiuru's parents.
During these two days, Su Chen fully utilized his sweet-talking and shaless skills to keep the old couple beaming with happiness.
Especially Xia's mother, who was smiling from ear to ear all day, constantly talking about "little Su this, little Su that," to the extent that Xia Qiuru was almost left by the wayside.
The most satisfying thing for Xia Qiuru's parents about Su Chen was that he didn't show the slightest bit of neglect or disdain towards himself due to his humble origins.
As Xia Qiuru watched the cheerful scene of her parents getting along with Su Chen, she couldn't help but sigh to herself, wishing that all of this were true!
Xia Qiuru wished that these two days would pass more slowly, but ti is relentless, and two days flew by in the blink of an eye.
When sending Xia Qiuru's parents back, Su Chen insisted that they should not take the train; he bought them plane tickets instead, so after getting off the plane, they would just need to take a two-hour bus ride to reach the small town.
In the following days, Su Chen returned to his usual routine, teasing the girls from the PR departnt during work and cultivating in the mansion at night.
After three nights of dedicated cultivation, Su Chen finally broke through to the Qi Refinent Eighth Layer Realm with a long howl pointed to the sky!
In that instant, the power of the Qi Refinent Eighth Layer exploded like a deluge, and the result was that, except for his underwear, all his clothes were blown to shreds, fluttering in the air like confetti!
Xu Xinran, who was sleeping in a nearby room, was also startled and thought sothing had happened to Su Chen, so she ran over to check on him without even putting on her shoes!
When she pushed open the door to Su Chen's room and saw him in such a state, she was imdiately dumbfounded!
However, as her gaze drifted downwards slightly, her face flushed with heat, and she covered her eyes!
"What on earth were you just doing?"
Xu Xinran turned around and asked, the sight she had just witnessed was indeed too much for the eyes!
"Nothing, I was just doing an experint,"
Su Chen picked out a set of clothes from the wardrobe nearby and began to change:
"Alright, you can turn back now."
Upon hearing his words, Xu Xinran turned back around, regarding him suspiciously and thinking to herself:
"An experint? Sure, who would believe that? This guy must have been up to sothing sleazy, you could tell just by looking at him just now."
"Officer Xu, what's with that look?"
"Nothing, I'm going back to sleep,"
Seeing that he was alright, Xu Xinran turned and left, her manner as indifferent as ever...
Yet, Su Chen simply smiled to himself; this girl seed to care about him after all, otherwise she wouldn't have run over at the first sound, without even putting on her shoes...
