Hao Ren spend the following days calmly, he would interact with Han Lingshi and they both were growing closer with each day. The young lady had also been smiling a little more when talking to him. Five days have passed by, Ron Yuan had yet to co to school, because when Dwight testified against him, the young man was put under observation until more evidence could be collected.
However, Hao Ren did not like this laid back attitude and he wanted to ask Xia Yang upfront about what is going on, but he did not think it was appropriate. While he would not mind getting rid of another enemy, he was not in a hurry, he could kill Ron Yuan whenever he wanted.
The classes ca to an end, and Ye Yue appeared at the door just when Hao Ren and Han Lingshi were about to leave. Hao Ren greeted her and Ye Yue smiled as she said, "Do you have a suit to wear for your performance?"
Hao Ren was surprised and shook his head, Ye Yue said, "Then co along I will get you one."
Hao Ren shook his head and replied, "You do not need to, Miss Ye, I will get a suit myself. It is not appropriate."
Ye Yue realized that she was his teacher and thus Hao Ren was refusing her. She nodded with a faint smile and said, "Thank you, these days watching you play I have learned a lot so I almost forgot that you are my student."
Hao Ren smiled and then waited for Ye Yue to leave before they left the place. Han Lingshi was standing beside him and asked, "Do you know where to buy the suit?"
Hao Ren caught a hint and said, "I have no idea, would look on the internet, after all, budget is another thing I need to be considerate about."
Han Lingshi looked at him with sparkling eyes and then after a few minutes she asked, "Co with ."
Hao Ren nodded and held his bag over his shoulder as they both headed outside the school. There was a car waiting for Han Lingshi and an old man opened the back door for her. Han Lingshi said, "Grandpa Yang, we will go to the Stitch and Drape."
The old man looked at Hao Ren standing behind her and nodded. Han Lingshi looked at Hao Ren and said, "You can sit in the front."
Hao Ren shrugged and sat in the front, as he did not mind. The old butler noticed this and let out a sigh. This did not escape Hao Ren's gaze, he could tell that the person was probably thinking about his relation with Han Lingshi.
Hao Ren realized that he needed to make so money and quickly. He got inside the car comfortably and Han Lingshi asked, "Do you have anything special in mind?"
Hao Ren shook his head and said, "It should be sothing subtle and minimalist. I do not want to look too ostentatious."
Han Lingshi nodded and after a few minutes they reached the shop called Stitch and Drapes. Han Lingshi led the young man inside, and the old man behind the counter smiled looking at her, "Xiao Ling is here after such a long ti. Did you finally rember ?"
Han Lingshi smiled and replied, "Grandpa Ting, have you been well?"
The old man nodded and then he caught sight of Hao Ren behind her, and asked, "Who might this young man be?"
Han Lingshi replied, "He is my classmate and friend, Hao Ren. He is new in the city and is going to perform on the Founder's day, so we need a suit for him."
The old man nodded and walked up to Hao Ren before he circled him and sighed, "Excellent. Such proportions, had you gone to the entertainnt industry you would be a god. Co, I have sothing for you."
His experience in the trade was so deep that he could asure the people with just a glance. He bought Hao Ren to a rack where a few pieces were hanging and he browsed a few before he took out a traditional han suit. The edges were stitched with black and the sleeves had a black portion on it matching the collar.
Han Lingshi nodded and said, "Go and try it."
Hao Ren sighed and went to the trial room, after a few minutes when he ca out, his aura had undergone transformation and he looked very handso. Han Lingshi was stunned, she did not expect him to be so srizing. Continue your journey at empire
Hao Ren saw a few points rising in his impression bar. The young man moved around a bit and asked, "How is it, Class Monitor?"
Han Lingshi woke up, she looked at him, and then frowned faintly and said, "It looks good. Now Grandpa Ting will tell you about the condition to buy this suit."
Hao Ren raised his eyebrow he saw that one impression point dropped when he asked Han Lingshi about the suit, and he was also surprised that their was a condition he had to fulfill to buy this suit.
He looked at the old man who asked, "What sort of performance is it?"
Hao Ren replied, "Piano."
Old Man Ting said, "I have a Guqin, if you can play the sa piano song on the Guqin, the suit will be yours."
Hao Ren was surprised and then he nodded and said, "I will try my best."
Old Man Ting went to the back room behind the counter and ca out with a Guqin in his arms. Hao Ren looked around and then he sat up on a stool on the side. He stroked the strings randomly, then he tuned the instrunt and began to play the song.
After ten minutes, the people ca out of the shop holding clothes. Hao Ren asked, "The material of this cloth is very good, why did the owner just gave it away?"
The old butler Yang, said, "Master Ting was a tailor in the ti of war, and then he made a fortune sailing clothes to the military and created the S&D brand. However, after retirent, he opened this hop, if people can complete the conditions of his, they would be allowed to walk out with the product free of cost."
Hao Ren nodded in understanding, Han Lingshi said, "You can take a cab or bus from here. I am getting late."
Her words surprised Hao Ren but the young man nodded and thanked her for taking him here. He watched Han Lingshi leave as a notification sounded in his mind, *Ding: Host, your wife is upset. The next task is to figure out where you screwed up and fix it. Ti limit: 24 hours.*
Hao Ren ca back to his dormitory, and sat down to cultivate. He did not slack in his routine because one never knew what would happen on the next day.
Next morning, he arrived at the school auditorium. These past few days many people have been preparing for the event and they all knew who was doing what.
Hao Ren greeted so people with a smile and then he began approached Han Lingshi who was standing next to a group of people who were all supervising various things remotely. This group had been nad Monitor Gang.
Hao Ren walked over with his bag and patted Han Lingshi on the shoulder. Class 1-A was very good at tasks, because of Xia Yulei's incident. So, Han Lingshi didn't have much to do.
She looked at him and her dissatisfied expression resurfaced. Hao Ren smiled and said, "Good Morning, Lingshi. Can you look after my bag? I will go and help around."
Han Lingshi was shocked but then she smiled faintly and nodded in approval. Hao Ren handed the bag and left.
In his mind a notification sounded, *Ding: Host, task complete. You get the basic level divination skill. It can be upgraded by frequent use. Note: Using it for people stronger than you can cause a severe backlash.*
Hao Ren nodded and then helped with so tricky and heavy tasks. The classmates knew that he was the one who saved Xia Yulei, she had only rejoined two days ago, and thanked him before the entire school in the assembly.
She also thanked Han Lingshi and Ye Yue but she bowed to Hao Ren. This was a great honor. It was noon when the ceremony opened after the Principal's speech. The founder's family mbers also ca over to say a few words, and the sequence of performances was initiated.
Hao Ren and Han Lingshi stood in the back stage area, and Hao Ren asked, "Why did you get angry yesterday?"
Han Lingshi smiled faintly and said, "I did not expect you to notice that. Was that why you changed your address?"
Hao Ren nodded and said, "I took a gamble and it played out nice."
Han Lingshi asked, "What makes you think it was nice?"
The young man smiled and replied, "At least you smiled and didn't slap before everyone. It was nice for ."
Han Lingshi wanted to say sothing when suddenly a student ca rushing over and said, "That fucker Ron, he busted the Piano. Hao Ren co see."
Hao Ren clenched his fist and dashed over with Han Lingshi. In his mind, Ron Yuan was eager to die
