Chapter 53: Chapter 53: It’s a Pity It’s Not You

Translator: 549690339

In the midst of Jack’s busy days of attending school, cultivating his avatar, and controlling his secondary character’s eating, a few days passed by in a flash.

On October 21st, Sunday, it was sunny.

At half past eight in the morning, Jack didn’t wear his school uniform today. Instead, he wore a white T-shirt, gray trousers, and white flat shoes, exuding a relaxed vibe.

Glenn, who was lying on the sofa playing with his mobile phone, asked curiously, “Bro, are you going out?”

Jack nodded, “Yeah, 1 have an appointment with friends to see lotus flowers.”

Glenn’s eyes lit up immediately and he sat up, “Guys or girls? Is Sister Freya Louise there?”

“…what kind of reaction is that?” Jack was speechless.

Glenn chuckled, “I’m just concerned about you, bro. Just tell me if you’re going with Sister Freya Louise or not.”

“She’s there.”

“Good. Have fun, bro. I’m going to a friend’s house to play later.” Glenn urged Jack to leave, making Jack shake his head.

Young but thinking a lot.

Jack waited for a few minutes at the train station before taking the bus to the meeting point.

Moon Lake, located on the east suburban of the city, was a scenic area consisting of several lakes of various sizes. Every year when the lotus flowers bloom, many people come to visit.

When Jack arrived at the entrance of the scenic area, he found that he was the last to arrive. Crystal Leinster, Justin Welan, Freya Louise, and Sawyer Levin and Vera Lee were already waiting for him.

In addition to them, there were Mandy Leinster and three other people, one male and two females, whom he had met during the ranking competition.

Jack felt embarrassed and apologized, “Sorry, the bus was delayed today.”

Class leader Sherry Lesser didn’t mind and said, “It’s fine, we just arrived. The gathering time was set at 10 o’clock. You’re not late since there are still a few minutes to spare.”

Today, Sherry Lesser wore a white short-sleeved T-shirt and tight jeans. Her waist was thin and her legs were long and straight. Her slightly curly purple hair was tied at the back of her head with a hairpin.

Coupled with her stunningly beautiful face, she looked dainty and efficient, exuding the aura of a beautiful young girl.

The others also dressed casually. For example, Justin Welan and Sawyer Levin were like Jack, wearing T-shirts, casual pants, and sneakers.

Compared to the male students, the female students’ outfits were much more attractive.

For example, Freya wore a double-layered dress today, with a transparent white outer layer and a red fitted T-shirt underneath, showing off her slim waist and full chest.

The lower part of her outfit was a pair of straight women’s capri pants, revealing her fair ankles and delicate feet clad in silver high-heeled sandals.

As usual, her hair was tied back with a butterfly ribbon. A few strands of hair hung in front of her forehead, revealing her fair and exquisite face.

She also wore a silver crystal necklace around her neck and a pair of silver butterfly earrings. Under the sunlight, she seemed to be shining.

Jack found her delicate and beautiful attire today surprisingly breathtaking.

Seeing Jack’s gaze, Freya was a little shy, averting her eyes and pretending to casually brush her hair behind her ear before turning her head slightly.

At this moment, a girl with the same stunning face as Sherry Lesser but with blue hair tips, walked over and smiled, “Student Clark, hello. I am Mandy Leinster from Class 9.”

Unlike Sherry Lesser, known for her cool temperament, decisive actions, and queen-like demeanor, Mandy’s voice was gentle, just like her attire.

She wore a blue and white striped dress, with her soft hair draped over her shoulders. Her entire being exuded a gentle and stunning aura, making people feel comfortable.

Seeing her take the initiative to greet him, Jack naturally also smiled, “Hello. It’s an honor to finally meet you — I’ve long admired Mandy.”

“Why is that?” Mandy blinked her beautiful eyes, curious.

“Because…”

Cough, cough!!

As Jack was about to say that he had heard of her reputation for a long time, Justin Welan next to him coughed twice, making Jack change his words, “Because of the relation with the class leader.””We’ve long heard that the class leader has a sister who, like her, has outstanding talent and is beautiful, and they both made it into the top 50 freshmen.”

Facing Jack Clark’s praise, Mandy Leinster smiled gently and introduced her companions: the somewhat beautiful female student was called Maria Jenkins, and the male student was Laurant Quartley.

After everyone got acquainted, class leader Sherry Lesser gave out nine tickets to the group, and they lined up to enter the scenic area.

“Wow! So many lotuses!”

As soon as they entered the scenic area, Vera Lee exclaimed in amazement, seeing countless lotus leaves spreading out on the large and small lakes up ahead, with white, red, and pink lotus flowers swaying gently.

Among the boundless sea of lotus leaves and flowers, wooden bridges connected in all directions, filled with tourists coming to enjoy the scenery.

Such beautiful scenery made everyone feel refreshed and relaxed.

“Let’s hurry and go see the pink flower sea over there.”

“I brought a camera.”

“I brought one too, let’s take lots of beautiful photos.”

Compared to the more restrained boys, even Freya Louise was excited upon seeing such scenery, and she jogged over to follow Sherry and the others.

A group of girls laughing and playing together was quite eye-catching, especially when there were a pair of tall, beautiful twins among them.

Apart from that, there was also the equally beautiful and delicate Freya Louise; so many high-quality girls together became a part of the scenery as well.

Justin Welan approached Jack Clark: “Jack, do you have any feelings of infatuation?”

“What infatuation?” Jack pretended not to understand.

“Stop pretending, Jack. Aren’t you attracted to class leader and her sister? They’re twins, and they’re both so beautiful.” At this point, Justin chuckled lasciviously, appearing somewhat lewd.

Jack was speechless: “Justin, can you not be so lewd? And do I have to be attracted to them just because they’re beautiful? Can’t I just appreciate them with an admiring gaze?”

“Also, we’re only in Senior One, and we’ve just started cultivating. Shouldn’t we focus our hearts and minds on cultivation now?”

Justin disagreed somewhat: “Jack, what’s wrong with being in Senior One? Don’t high school juniors count as men?”

Jack was somewhat interested: “Alright, they count as men. So what, are you planning to chase after the class leader and her sister?”

Justin quickly shook his head: “No, I’m not.”

“Why not?” Jack was a bit surprised.

“Because I know my own worth. The class leader and her sister are too beautiful; they’re not my type.”

“Then why did you ask me if 1 was infatuated?” Jack was speechless.

Justin reasoned: “Because I think you can pull it off, Jack. If I were as handsome as you, I would have chased after class leader’s younger sister a long time ago.”

“To be honest, ever since 1 met you on the first day of school, I’ve felt that you and the class leader make a good couple.” Justin urged: “Seriously, 1 think your chances of success in pursuing the class leader are pretty high.”

Jack was speechless: “Why do you have that feeling?”

“Because you’re so handsome that even I, a man, am a bit jealous.”

Faced with this reasoning, Jack didn’t know how to refute it for a while.

But did he really think he was that handsome? Jack was a bit doubtful; although he felt he was quite handsome every day when he looked in the mirror, he didn’t think it was that exaggerated, was it?

“Wait, if you were as handsome as me, why wouldn’t you pursue the class leader?” Jack reacted and changed the topic.

Justin looked at Jack strangely: “Isn’t that obvious? Class leader has a terrible temper; if I were you, I’d definitely choose the gentle-natured Mandy Leinster.”

“…Why is it me again?” Jack was speechless.

“Because you’re handsome.”

…Faced with this reasoning, Jack was at a loss for words for the time being..
