After dinner.
Su Qingqing and Huo Xinya both went back to their rooms to study.
Chen Nan didn’t follow them but headed to his own room.
She planned to ditate and practice, reflect on the first three moves of the Chaotic Nine Forms that the Heart Demon showed during the day, and consolidate her cultivation realm. But as soon as she opened the door and walked in, she saw an old man in white sitting by her bed, gently shaking a folding fan, looking majestic—it was Xuan Tianji.
"Old man, when did you get here?" Chen Nan asked in confusion as she walked inside.
The old man grabbed a piece of paper, crumpled it into a ball, and tossed it over to her, saying indifferently, "Here, this is the answer sheet for the college entrance exam. You better copy down a good score."
College entrance exam answers!
Chen Nan was dumbfounded; the old man actually got the answers for her. She asked, "What exactly are you planning?"
"I have sothing I need you to do, it relates to solving the Poison Fire on Yiyi."
"What does this have to do with my college entrance exam?"
Chen Nan found it really hard to believe the old man’s words; the college entrance exam is just a test, how could it be connected with things in the cultivation world?
"You country bumpkin, such a fuss over nothing."
The old man scorned and took out a photo, tossing it over to Chen Nan.
Chen Nan took a look at the photo and furrowed his brow.
Chu Wenrou!
How could the old man have a picture of the crazy woman, Chu Wenrou?
"As your master, I was just observing the stars at night and noticed a calamity star shining high, and the Ziwei Star was dark and dim..."
"Speak in human language."
Chen Nan directly interrupted him.
"Why are you so impatient?" The old man said irritably, "You little brat, always lazy before and not learning Qin Dunjia properly with , now look at you, you can’t understand, can you?"
Chen Nan was speechless, saying, "The point is, did you ever teach ?"
"This..."
The old man coughed twice and quickly changed the subject, "Okay, enough nonsense, I’ll be frank with you. The woman in that photo is crucially important for you to solve the Qilin Poison Fire, so you better get a good exam score and go to her university, figure out a way to win her over."
Chen Nan was completely flustered, shouting, "Are you out of your mind? That crazy woman has absolutely no Inner Strength, she clearly isn’t soone from the cultivation world, how could she possibly help ? Moreover, she currently sees as a mortal enemy, how could I ever win her over!"
"I observed the stars at night—they don’t lie. Only she can help you." The old man said firmly.
Chen Nan shook his head, "Even if that’s true, I still can’t win her over. Do you realize how deep my hatred with her is now?"
Thinking about how he won against Chu Wenrou in the chess ga earlier and she kept cursing at him in her computer, Chen Nan felt a headache, making him pursue this crazy woman was too much of a cosmic joke!
The old man glanced at him coldly, saying, "Stop blabbering; I’ll ask you just one thing, do you want to save your junior sister or not?"
"Of course I do!"
The old man nodded in satisfaction, pointing at the photo, "Then you need to find a way to win her over."
"Is there no other option but to win her over?" Chen Nan asked unwillingly.
"No!"
Just two words, the old man answered decisively.
Chen Nan asked, "Winning her over is fine, but you should at least tell what’s special about her and why she can help , right?"
"It’s a heavenly secret that cannot be disclosed."
The old man’s face looked profound as he shook his head, saying, "In short, all you need to know is that she’s not just an ordinary woman, that’s it!"
Chen Nan grumbled, "Not an ordinary woman, so is she a monster?"
"Whack..."
The old man slapped him, knocking Chen Nan to the ground, scolding, "I told you not to argue back; I’ll beat you to death, you brat."
Chen Nan cursed loudly as he got up, but not a trace of the old man remained in the room; he had already fled.
"Just wait until my cultivation surpasses yours, I’ll beat the hell out of you." Chen Nan cursed and looked at the photo of Chu Wenrou in his hand, feeling truly frustrated.
With such deep hatred, how could he possibly win her over?
"Damn it, for my junior sister’s sake, I’d risk my life if I have to!"
Chen Nan muttered to himself, flipping the photo to see a phone number on the back. No doubt, it was Chu Wenrou’s.
After so hesitation, he took out his phone and dialed the number.
"Who is it? Don’t bother unless you have to; I’m pissed off right now!" A furious voice ca from Chu Wenrou on the other end of the line.
Chen Nan patted his forehead, feeling like he was digging his own grave!
It was definitely about the chess ga; Chu Wenrou was still upset. To win her over, what should he say?
Chen Nan cleared his throat, "Miss, how about we go out?"
"You wish, buzz off!" Chu Wenrou shouted angrily and hung up the phone.
"This little lady’s got quite the temper."
Chen Nan scratched his head, bracing himself for more scolding, and dialed the number again. This ti he heard Chu Wenrou roar, "Who the hell are you? Didn’t you hear say buzz off? Try calling again, see if I don’t hunt you down and kick your ass!"
"Lovely and kind Wenrou, don’t be so angry, take it easy, let’s talk about sothing." Chen Nan said with a chuckle.
"You’re a bastard, Chen, calling here to tease !" Chu Wenrou instantly recognized Chen Nan’s voice and erupted in rage, "You wish! Tell where you are, see if I don’t kill you!"
How the hell does one win over such a fierce lady?
Chen Nan chuckled awkwardly, asking, "Well, Wenrou, what do you think of as a person?"
"You’re shaless, a beast, fickle, and vulgar, an absolute scum of the earth, the best of the worst, nothing about you is redeemable, no one is worse than you!" Chu Wenrou seed to have run out of insults, otherwise she could vent for another half-hour with no problem.
Chen Nan laughed, "To point out so many flaws at once, you seem to be quite focused on ."
"Disgusting, go die. Don’t let see you again, or I’ll kill you!" Chu Wenrou shouted, the kind of tone that sounded as if she wanted to tear Chen Nan apart.
Hearing her tone, it seed she was about to hang up, so Chen Nan quickly said, "Wait a mont, I still have sothing to say to you."
Chu Wenrou paused for a mont, coldly snorting, "Say it or spit it out."
"Well..."
Chen Nan hesitated, pondering for a bit, then asked, "Wenrou, can I pursue you?"
"Wha... what?"
Chu Wenrou couldn’t believe her ears, thinking she misheard, she asked again, "What did you say?"
"I said, I want to win you over."
Chen Nan was straightforward, directly stating the main point.
The phone went quiet, with Chu Wenrou on the other end stunned, she could confirm she hadn’t misheard this ti.
After a brief silence, she yelled, "You bastard, tell where you are!"
"Are you agreeing to go on a date with ?" Although Chen Nan knew it was unlikely, given Chu Wenrou’s harsh tone, he still had a sliver of hope.
Chu Wenrou laughed in anger, "Sure, a date, tell where you are!"
No doubt, she believed Chen Nan’s pursuit of her was purely a joke, teasing her.
"Really a date?" Chen Nan was slightly excited.
As long as Chu Wenrou agreed to a date, it ant there was a chance; if there was a chance, he surely wouldn’t let it slip.
"Yes, I’ll have a date with you!"
Chu Wenrou’s tone was so spiteful, gritting her teeth as she said, "Na a place and I’ll co find you imdiately."
