Xiao Manxuan’s figure was already quite tall and slender, but the thing on her back still appeared so long, indicating that whatever it contained wasn’t a small item. If one had to find sothing similar in length and shape, only a sword box would fit the bill.
Could it be that Miss gave the Hua Ying Sword to the little girl for protection? Lin Tian had a strange thought.
"Second Miss, is that the Hua Ying Sword on your back?" Lin Tian couldn’t help but ask.
"No, I’ll give you another chance, guess what it is?" Xiao Manxuan smiled playfully, her eyes curving into a crescent moon shape.
Not the Hua Ying Sword? Lin Tian thought it was odd. He briefly closed his eyes, a flash of light suddenly crossed his mind, and a scene erged—at the top of the Fanyin Temple tower.
"Is it that Guqin?" Lin Tian exclaid in surprise.
"Smart." Xiao Manxuan praised.
It turned out to be that Guqin. Speaking of which, the story of Xiao Manxuan obtaining this Guqin had a legendary touch. She was summoned by its sound, and inside the body of the Guqin was the Purple Fla Sword, which was related to a zombie girl, making the origin of this Guqin quite mysterious.
Even now, Lin Tian couldn’t see through the origin of the Guqin. Despite his considerable expertise in identifying antiques and treasures, he simply couldn’t discern it.
Previously, he had even observed the Guqin through X-ray vision, but it was just wood, strings still being strings, with no extraordinary traits. Later, Xiao Manxuan rarely took it out to play, and Lin Tian almost forgot about this Guqin.
"Ever since you got the Guqin, you rarely played it. What made you decide to take it to school?" Lin Tian asked out of curiosity.
Xiao Manxuan blinked, unsure herself as she said, "Before coming here, while packing, I saw this Guqin, and on a whim, I brought it with . I thought with it, I could join so sort of Guqin club or sothing."
"Alright, let’s set off, don’t waste ti." The Miss also ca out, urging them.
Lin Tian glanced at the backpack, raised an eyebrow, and refrained from ntioning the Guqin again. Instead, he headed towards the garage, with the sisters following closely. Upon reaching the garage, Yun Xiaotian was already there, and the garage was open.
"Lin Tian, I heard you won a Ferrari last ti. Do you plan to drive the Ferrari to take us to school? Won’t that be too ostentatious?" Xiao Manxuan peered towards the garage, curiously asking.
"Of course not, soone as low-key and honest as wouldn’t do such a flashy thing. Besides, I didn’t want the Ferrari, Aunt Wang got another car instead." Lin Tian imdiately denied, although to the sisters, he didn’t really seem like a low-key and honest person.
"Got you another car?" Even the Miss was a bit surprised, and she quickly thought of sothing.
Lin Tian walked into the garage and drove out a car. When the sisters saw its shape, they imdiately thought of Yun Xiaotian’s exclusive vehicle. Unexpectedly, the Yun Family had really made Lin Tian one.
"Don’t just stand there, get in the car." Lin Tian reminded, and the sisters then got into the car.
"Brother Lin, Sister Manxue, Sister Manxuan, until we et again." Yun Xiaotian stood outside the car, waving goodbye to the three.
Lin Tian didn’t say a word, making a suave gesture, turning the car around and driving away from the Yun Family. The Ghost didn’t co to see them off, but Lin Tian knew that guy was likely getting tornted by Mr. Wang sowhere.
Out the Yun Family gates, onto the road outside, the car’s central control screen suddenly automatically rose up, then lit up. As the sisters wondered, a soft female voice sounded inside the car.
"Hello, ladies, I am Little Ya, pleased to serve you."
"Are you that...artificial intelligence?" Xiao Manxuan was slightly surprised but intrigued. The sudden appearance of Little Ya didn’t frighten her. After all, she had seen artificial intelligence before, and the Xiao Family’s Nuwa was much more advanced than Little Ya.
"Yes, I am an advanced artificial intelligence. How should I address you, ladies? Are you Mr. Lin’s girlfriends?" Little Ya asked a question that made Lin Tian laugh and cry. This thing being too intelligent was also troubleso, asking questions too human-like, yet not the slightest bit tactful.
Lin Tian intentionally put on a stern face, admonishing, "Little Ya, don’t speak carelessly. If you say sothing wrong again, I’ll dismantle you."
"Yes, Mr. Lin, Little Ya knows she was wrong." The artificial intelligence was very obedient.
Xiao Manxuan covered her mouth and laughed, then said, "Lin Tian, don’t bla her. I heard from my sister that artificial intelligences have a self-learning process. When Nuwa was first created, she wasn’t that intelligent. It was the result of learning and self-evolution."
"Hello Little Ya, I’m Xiao Manxuan, and this beside is my sister Xiao Manxue. In the future, when we’re in your car, rember us, okay?" Xiao Manxuan introduced herself to the artificial intelligence, seeming quite experienced dealing with these high-tech gadgets.
"Thank you for understanding, you truly are a kind-hearted girl." The artificial intelligence complinted.
"Hey, hey, are you suggesting that I’m not kind-hearted?" Lin Tian protested, getting serious with an artificial intelligence, making the sisters burst out laughing.
As the three of them and the artificial intelligence joked and talked, the car arrived outside the gates of Jinghua University. By now it was already past nine, and the entrance was bustling with new students carrying luggage, parents seeing them off, and old students chatting and laughing.
Lin Tian glanced around and spotted the familiar figure of Zhou Botong, who was standing under the shade of a tree, his gaze lingering on the students coming in and out, all of whom were young and beautiful female students.
He knew this guy wasn’t that honest. Coming to the entrance early in the morning to watch the female students, when earlier on the phone, he sounded so righteous—now his true colors were revealed.
However, Lin Tian knew that this guy was just eye candy, the type with neither a thief’s heart nor guts. Besides, Zhou Botong was only interested in Ou ngng, the fiery and passionate Female Knight.
Lin Tian smirked mischievously and suddenly shouted, "Ou ngng, why are you here..." This was aid at Zhou Botong.
This guy had quick reflexes, imdiately retracting his gaze from "observing" the female students, assuming a serious expression, then searching for "Ou ngng’s" figure. When he saw Lin Tian’s mischievous smile, he let out a big sigh of relief.
He walked up to the car, scrutinized this ordinary car for a while, then scrutinized the Xiao sisters and Lin Tian in the car, full of disbelief: "Isn’t this a bit too low-key?"
Zhou Botong used to love driving sports cars and racing, sharing the sa hobby with Ou ngng. Having seen many high-end sports cars, he found it hard to believe that Lin Tian was driving a car that cost below a hundred thousand.
Yes, in his eyes, Lin Tian’s car was even below ten thousand. Such cars were most common on the streets. Zhou Botong felt that given either the Xiao family’s or Lin Tian’s status, it should start at the million-level at least.
"What’s with this low-key thing? Where’s the parking lot? Park the car properly, so we can go check-in." Lin Tian didn’t waste ti arguing with him.
"It’s over there, never mind, you guys get out, I’ll park it for you." Zhou Botong said, intending to pull open the car door.
Lin Tian chuckled, "You can’t drive this car."
