In fact, when Xiang Hai instructed everyone to set off, he didn't have the slightest intention of inviting Wu Yang to get in the car. Since none of the four male classmates took the initiative to speak up, it finally came down to Li Xiaoling. But the problem was, previously, out of respect for Jiang Yueyue's face, everyone had made a pretense of greeting Wu Yang subtly, except for Li Xiaoling, who had an obviously disgusted expression, so much so that even a blind man could see her dislike for Wu Yang. Would she be willing to take Wu Yang now? Wu Yang frowned slightly; he could see that these guys were just trying to purely irritate him. The Sharp Blade Hidden Dragon would not be angry with a bunch of 'naughty kids,' but if the naughty kids kept making a fuss endlessly, didn't that mean it was time for a spanking? "There's still an empty seat in my car, the one with the fire... er, I mean, Student Wu Yang, you can take my car. Yueyue, how about you take Senior Xiang Hai's car over there, okay?"

It was at the moment when the atmosphere had chilled to the extreme that Li Xiaoling, who had never really looked at Wu Yang properly, suddenly spoke up, and to everyone's surprise, she actively invited Wu Yang to ride in her car. Huh? What's going on? Didn't Li Xiaoling used to hate him? Moreover, as the department flower of the Economics and Management Department at Hengdong University, a well-known cold beauty, she had never even let Xiang Hai ride in her car before, and now she was actually inviting a male classmate she didn't know well? The male students were puzzled. Xiang Hai cast a cold glance at Wu Yang. Indeed, he, Xiang Hai, was the famous campus heartthrob of Hengdong University, and he was also known for his aloofness. However, no matter how aloof, he still harbored some covetous thoughts towards beauties like Jiang Leye and Li Xiaoling, who were at the level of department flowers and campus flowers. That had nothing to do with feelings; it was purely the natural possessive desire of a strong individual towards the female animals within their territory. Otherwise, with his personality, how could he have invited Jiang Leye, who was not nearly qualified in terms of family background, to a small private gathering like today's, apart from Li Xiaoling? Now, the prey he had set his eyes on were all showing inexplicable fondness for that stinky loser; it would be strange if he weren't angry. With great effort, Xiang Hai suppressed the surging emotions in his heart and squeezed out a smile on his face as he said to Wu Yang, 'It seems that you're quite popular with the female students, Wu Yang. Alright, that's decided then. Leye, hurry up and get in the car, we're setting off now.'

Jiang Leyue stuck out her tongue and sneakily glanced at Wu Yang, noticing that he did not show any signs of anger. Only then did she gently nod and walk towards Xiang Hai's car. Unbeknownst to her, this seemingly unnoticed secret gesture had been captured by the eyes of several male classmates of Xiang Hai. Needless to say, it immediately drew several intriguing gazes towards Wu Yang. ... 'Le Yue, who is that Wu Yang? Are you two very acquainted?' In the Ferrari, Xiang Hai turned on a soothing light music and casually asked. 'Huh? Why does Senior Xiang Hai think so? I just met him recently!' Jiang Leyue replied somewhat unexpectedly. 'What? You just met him? Then why are you so enthusiastic about him? Did that guy do something to you?' This time it was Xiang Hai's turn to be surprised. Jiang Leyue turned her head to take a closer look at Senior Xiang Hai, then suddenly chuckled, 'Senior, I think there might be some misunderstanding. Although I've only known Brother Wu for a short time, I know he must be a good person, and moreover, a hero who likes to do good deeds without seeking recognition.' As she spoke, the scene from yesterday's car ride involuntarily surfaced in Jiang Leyue's mind, especially when she thought of Wu Yang deliberately playing dumb, a hint of a smile couldn't help but appear on her lips. 'Damn it!'

Xiang Hai secretly clenched his fists; it was the first time he had seen such a lovesick expression on Jiang Yueyue's face. As a 'veteran' with countless conquests, Xiang Hai knew better than anyone that when a woman showed such an expression towards another man, it meant that she had completely fallen for him, beyond redemption. 'Very good, very good! I never thought there would come a day when someone would poach from me, you bastard surnamed Wu, just you wait, this isn't over!' ...

Inside theOn a navy blue Aston Martin car。 Since pulling Wu Yang into the car, Li Xiaoling had been keeping a straight face, completely ignoring him as if he were thin air. But even after a long time had passed, she failed to receive anyProactively initiate a conversationfrom Wu Yang, which only fueled the rage in Li Xiaoling's heart. To be fair, because of their childhood connection, Li Xiaoling didn't have a bad impression of 'Fire Thunder Brother'. Especially since, after fifteen years, Fire Thunder still remembered her and had traveled a long way to find her. Human hearts are made of flesh and blood, so how could Li Xiaoling not be touched? But it was absolutely inexcusable that this scoundrel should go to such lengths to sneak into her school, and even more so to use Jiang Yueyue's innocence to get close to her. Alright, if the above two things could still be explained as his 'affection' for her being so deep that he couldn't extricate himself, then what was going on now? They had been in the car for several minutes already, so why didn't he take the initiative to admit his mistake? Did he really think that by pretending to be calm and indifferent, by deliberately playing silent and deep, he could win her favor? Childish! The more Li Xiaoling thought about it, the angrier she became, and suddenly she blurted out, 'Is this interesting?' 'Ah?'

“Xiao Ling, what are you saying?” Wu Yang was completely confused. He knew this woman didn't like him, so he had deliberately kept quiet after getting into the car. Could it be that this was also a mistake? “What? Now you’re willing to admit you know me?” Li Xiaoling glanced at him and said coldly, “You’ve gone to great lengths to sneak into the school I attend, using the innocent Jiang Yueyue as a stepping stone to get close to me, and now you’re putting on airs of nobility and depth in front of me?” “I…” “Don’t rush to deny it! Huo Lei, give up, it’s useless. Yesterday at the Western restaurant, I didn’t want to spell it out because of our past relationship, but now, I feel I can’t keep silent any longer.” Turning her head to glare fiercely at Wu Yang, Li Xiaoling said word by word, “Let go, you and I are truly from two different worlds, and there will never be any outcome between us. And Jiang Yueyue, although she doesn’t have an outstanding family background, with her looks and talent, she is also out of your league. You and her are like the difference between the bright moon in the sky and the dirt on the ground. Even if you strive for ten generations, you will never reach Yueyue’s level. The gap between you two is simply too large.” Wu Yang laughed, as if looking at a willful child with the smile of an adult. If the Sharp Knife Hidden Dragon wanted a woman, it would be a royal princess, a famous lady cultivated by a century-old European noble family, or even the top Hollywood actresses internationally—it would be just a matter of a flick of the finger and a casual word. He had never known that there were women in this world that he could never reach even after striving for ten generations. “What? From your look, it seems you’re still not convinced?” Seemingly angered by Wu Yang’s indifferent smile, Li Xiaoling said with an increasingly cold tone, “The truth is always the most hurtful, but that’s the reality. You will never be worthy of Jiang Yueyue, nor will you ever gain any favor from me…”
