Chapter 73: Running Into Wang Yanran While Eating Out! How Unlucky!

“Hey Tianming, when are we going to have another sparring match? I’ve reached level sixteen!”

“Uh... maybe next time.”

“When exactly is next time? Give me a specific date.”

“I haven’t really thought about it...”

“Then I’ll decide. How about tonight, at the Windbell Arena?”

“I ate too much for dinner, so I’m not up for intense exercise! Maybe another day, I’ll definitely find time to spar with you next time!”

“...”

Feng Lan was speechless at Lin Tianming’s constant excuses to avoid her. She was just waiting for her level sixteen divine domain skill to be unlocked to wash away the shame of her previous defeat by Lin Tianming and settle their grudges from the past life. But every time, Lin Tianming had a different excuse, which frustrated her to no end.

Not only was Feng Lan frustrated, but Ye Qingxue, who shared a dorm room with her and saw her chasing after her boyfriend Lin Tianming, was also very annoyed. Feng Lan, that little fox spirit, dared to openly flirt with her Tianming right in front of her!

“Can you stop using sparring as an excuse to get close to my Tianming?”

Feng Lan didn’t respond, not bothering to engage with Ye Qingxue. In her past life, she had only met Ye Qingxue after becoming a god, and she wasn’t interested in interacting much with her in this life either.

Seeing Feng Lan’s taciturn nature, Ye Qingxue started to boast, “You won’t get Tianming tonight, and you won’t get him tomorrow either, because we’re going on a three-day trip together!”

Despite Ye Qingxue’s boastful declaration, Feng Lan didn’t care. She had already arranged for a three-day leave to seek out an opportunity from her past life. Ye Qingxue, who was focused on love, could do whatever she wanted with Lin Tianming; Feng Lan couldn’t care less.

Ignoring Ye Qingxue, Feng Lan left with a snort, while Lin Tianming was out with his roommate Chu Yunfei at the Tianhui Plaza in the DC district of the Imperial Capital. Unlike the area near the Imperial Capital’s Great Imperial Academy, this plaza was mostly frequented by young people from society rather than students from the academy.

“This Tianhui Plaza is really big, Tianming. We almost got lost even with the map!”

Lin Tianming agreed, “It’s really big. Yunfei, did you find the dry pot restaurant you booked online?”

“I’m checking. It should be around here, but this damn map navigation is useless!”

Chu Yunfei fiddled with his phone, following the map’s directions until they finally found the dry pot restaurant he had reserved.

“Hey, isn’t that the fierce senior who challenged you several times? And isn’t that Wang Jian, the guy you beat up in that video? They both have the surname Wang; could they be siblings? Man, Tianming, you beat up your future brother-in-law. He’s definitely going to oppose you being with Wang Yanran!”

Lin Tianming glared at Chu Yunfei, “Your head is full of gossip, Yunfei! Keep your voice down; don’t let them notice us!”

Chu Yunfei grinned, “Got it, but if they come near us, you’re going to be exposed!”

Just as they feared, Wang Yanran and Wang Jian did indeed walk towards their area.

“Cousin, our shrimp dry pot is at table seven, over there!”

Hearing Wang Jian, Chu Yunfei took another bite and smirked at Lin Tianming, “Table seven, right behind us. Tianming, looks like you can’t avoid Wang Yanran and your future brother-in-law tonight!”

Ignoring Chu Yunfei’s gleeful tone, Lin Tianming kept his head down, trying to avoid being recognized by Wang Yanran and Wang Jian.

[That back looks just like that rascal Lin Tianming!]

Wang Yanran’s inner thoughts made Lin Tianming’s heart skip a beat. He held onto a sliver of hope that she wouldn’t recognize him. Just then, Wang Jian called out to Wang Yanran, who was staring at Lin Tianming’s back.

“Cousin, I found table seven! It’s right here. What are you looking at? Come sit down! The food is best when fresh.”

Despite Wang Jian’s call, Wang Yanran kept staring at Lin Tianming.

[That back looks exactly like him. Let’s see who’s sitting with him. If it’s his roommate, then this must be that scoundrel Lin Tianming!]

Realizing that Wang Yanran was going to recognize Chu Yunfei, Lin Tianming hurriedly whispered to Chu Yunfei.

“Yunfei, keep your head down, don’t look over there!”

Confused, Chu Yunfei responded, “What? I can’t hear you!”

It was too late. Wang Yanran had already recognized Chu Yunfei’s face.

[Isn’t that Lin Tianming’s roommate?]

[That familiar back, it’s definitely you, Lin Tianming!]

[You’ve rejected me so many times, but tonight, far from the Great Imperial Academy, I’ve found you. Let’s see how you escape now, you scoundrel!]
