“Ah!” Zhao Hongyu tapped her head, “I forgot about it!?”

She quickly turned to the Elders and said, “Elder Lu, Elder Sun, please stay behind. The rest can leave!”

“Will do, Dragon Queen!” the Elders all gently bowed at Zhao Hongyu and flew out the back window, lighting up the entire room with many different colored lights.

“Coming, coming!” Zhao Hongyu rushed toward the door. She opened the door and said, “Ah! Ms. Luo, what brings you here?”

“A routine visit after midterm exams. I notified you last week.” Luo Ying walked in with her backpack and was shocked to see two guests sitting on the sofa with eight men in black suits and sunglasses standing behind them.

“These are my husband’s business partners. Ms. Luo, please have a seat.” Zhao Hongyu warmly welcomed Luo Ying to the other end of the sofa.

Luo Ying carefully looked at the interior of the house before looking at Elder Lu and Elder Sun.

Lu Qing was dressed in a modern suit, but Elder Sun was dressed in a brown traditional tang suit. One was full of white hair, and the other was hale and hearty. The two of them sitting together made Luo Ying feel wry and uneasy, and the eight strong men in black suits who were standing behind them made her uncomfortable. Luo Ying had dealt with students and parents before, but never situations like this. She was so nervous that she didn’t know what to say.

“Mr. Zhao, we are leaving now since you have a guest here. Our business discussion can continue some other days,” Elder Sun stood up and said to Zhao Guang.

“Let me walk you out,” Zhao Guang said.

“There is no need.” Elder Sun waved his hand and walked out the door with the men in black suits. Lu Qing followed and left at the same time.

These young men in black suits were the junior disciples of Elder Sun. They helped taking care of the businesses in East Ocean City and helped run errands sometimes; they usually started off as bodyguards and security guards.

Because their skills weren’t developed yet, they couldn’t dash and fly away at lightning speed like the Elders. Therefore, when Luo Ying suddenly appeared for a routine visit, they could only follow Elder Lu and Elder Sun and walk out of the house.

Luo Ying looked at the emotionless men in black suits shockingly and asked Zhao Hongyu cautiously, “Is there something wrong with the business?”

“They are only our partners in business,” Zhao Hongyu answered vaguely and gave Luo Ying a cup of tea, “Ms. Luo, you must be tired. It’s very late already, and you still have to finish the routine visits.”

“I couldn’t visit during the day since both of you are working,” Luo Ying said as she looked at the interior of the house once again. She realized that Zhao Yanzi’s home wasn’t as luxurious as the other houses she visited and thought that Zhao Yanzi’s family was just a well-to-do family.

“However, it seems like Zhao Yanzi’s father’s business must be facing some difficult times. Those men in black suits might be here to collect their debt… Ah, maybe that’s why Zhao Yanzi hasn’t been studying well. Family issues do affect the children…” she thought.

“Zi, your class advisor is here for the routine visit. Come over here!” Zhao Hongyu waved her hand at the dining table.

“Oh…” Zhao Yanzi put down her chopsticks and walked over slowly.

Hao Ren hesitated for a bit and decided to follow her.

Luo Ying has met Hao Ren before, and she had a poor impression of him since Hao Ren wasn’t able to concentrate during the Parent-Teacher Meeting at all.

“Hi, Ms. Luo,” Zhao Yanzi said.

“Huh.” Luo Ying nodded.

“Is Zi doing fine in school?” Zhao Guang walked towards them while holding a cup of tea.

He was frowning a little since he was worried about Zi’s birthday party, but Luo Ying, who was very observant, thought that he was concerned because of the business failures and debts.

“You guys didn’t attend the Parent-Teacher Meeting last time, and I have been wanting to talk about this since then,” Luo Ying said.

“But she did quite well on the exams, didn’t she?” Zhao Guang sat down and asked.

Zhao Yanzi and Hao Ren also sat down shoulder to shoulder on the sofa in the middle of the room.

“This visit isn’t about grades. It is about the problem of early relationships,” Luo Ying said.

“Early relationships?” Zhao Hongyu and Zhao Guang asked together, confused.

“I knew that he didn’t tell you anything about this,” Luo Ying looked at Hao Ren before turning to the married couple and saying, “Zhao Yanzi is quite famous in school and many boys like her. Recently, many boys have given her gifts since it’s almost her birthday.”

After hearing the Class Advisor speak, Zhao Yanzi pouted her lips and looked at Hao Ren as if she was asking him why he still hasn’t gotten her a gift.

All those birthday gifts, cards, and love letters she got from the boys at the school had been thrown into the garbage bin already.

“I’ve even heard rumors that she was meeting a guy who isn’t from our school. That guy climbed over the wall to see her,” Luo Ying continued.

“Oh?” Zhao Hongyu and Zhao Guang started to get serious.

“That boy’s name is Hao Ren, and he is from City North First High School. I heard that he is handsome and good at basketball. You think your teachers don’t know anything, but we actually know everything!” The latter portion of Luo Ying’s sentence was directed at Zhao Yanzi.

“Hao Ren?” Zhao Guang and Zhao Hongyu looked at Hao Ren and felt relieved.

However, Zhao Yanzi’s face revealed her embarrassment. She kept saying that she didn’t like Hao Ren, but Luo Ying made it sound like she was in love with Hao Ren.

After Luo Ying saw Zhao Guang’s and Zhao Hongyu’s reactions, she said seriously, “The problem of puppy love cannot be ignored. And about this guy named Hao Ren, I suggest you cooperate with the school and check it out.”

Zhao Hongyu glanced at Zhao Yanzi, and Zhao Yanzi’s face turned red instantly.

“Right now, studying is really important. Puppy love should not be allowed. Zhao Yanzi’s grades are starting to get better, and as parents, you shouldn’t just focus on your business and ignore your kid’s education…” Luo Ying looked at Zhao Yanzi and her parents as she continued to speak.

“What… What about being engaged?” Zhao Hongyu suddenly asked as she interrupted.

“Being engaged?” Luo Ying’s mind went blank as she said, “Is this a joke? Zhao Yanzi is only in the Eighth Grade! What do you mean by being engaged? What are you thinking as parents?”

“Alright, Ms. Luo. We understand,” Zhao Guang raised his hand calmly and asked, “Does Zi have any other bad behaviors at school?”

“Other bad behaviors… Well, she doesn’t listen to the lectures, she likes to chat in class, read comics in class, and even skip classes sometimes to go out and play. She even brought her friend, Xue Ling, along with her. Also, she always gets into arguments with the boys during PE classes. Once, while she was having lunch, she purposely spilled soup onto the clothes of the girl from other class…”

Luo Ying continued to list out Zhao Yanzi’s bad behaviors, and that made her look bad.

Hao Ren turned his head slightly towards Zhao Yanzi. “Wow, so Zhao Yanzi behaves this badly at school!” he thought.

Zhao Yanzi’s face turned from pale to red, then from red to black, and then from black to green.

Finally, she couldn’t help but stand up and yell, “Ms. Luo! That’s because they came at me first! Alright? Should I just let them bully me and do nothing?”

“Oh yes, and one more thing. She talks back to the teachers a lot,” Luo Ying said slowly.

Bam! Zhao Yanzi threw the small folding fan onto the sofa and walked towards the stairs.

Hao Ren stood up quickly without waiting for Zhao Hongyu’s signal and went up the stairs as well.

Bang!

Zhao Yanzi went to the second floor and slammed the door intentionally.

Zhao Hongyu, who was in the living room downstairs, smiled awkwardly and said, “Ms. Luo, please don’t mind her.”

Hao Ren went to the second floor and walked to the door that had a piglet door sign on it. He tried to turn the door handle and found that it was locked.

“Zi!” Hao Ren yelled from the outside of the room, but Zhao Yanzi remained quiet inside.

“Five Elemental Essences, absorb!”

Hao Ren put his hand on the metal door handle and used the Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll as he absorbed some of the metal elements and loosen the door lock’s mechanics.

The door opened.

Hao Ren saw Zhao Yanzi lying on her bed, and her eyes were red.

“What’s wrong? Are you crying?” Hao Ren closed the door and asked before walking towards the bed.

“None of your business!” Zhao Yanzi threw a pillow towards Hao Ren and said in a weepy tone.

How harmful could a pillow be? Hao Ren caught the pillow with ease and threw it aside as he continued to walk towards her.

“I will stop talking to you if you take one more step!” Zhao Yanzi suddenly sat up straight from the bed and said to Hao Ren angrily.

Hao Ren was threatened, and all he could do was to raise his arms and stand still as if he surrendered.

Zhao Yanzi turned around and lay on the bed once again, leaving Hao Ren with a slight thin view of her back.

“I was a bad student as well…” Hao Ren stood in place while he spoke to her softly.

“Yeah, sure! Who would believe that! You must have been a good student! Or else why are you so good at studying!” Zhao Yanzi growled as she was still facing the wall.

“No! Seriously! My grades were fine, but I never listened to my teachers. I always gave them headaches. If you don’t believe me, you can go to City North First High School and ask.”

“Huh! Who cares about your past!” Zhao Yanzi continued to yell.

The conversation stalled.

“Am I a bad student?” Zhao Yanzi stopped for a moment and asked suddenly.

“No! You are smart, kind, and cute.” By now, Hao Ren had no choice but to say good things.

“I am not a good student; I hate good students!” Zhao Yanzi yelled.

“Ah… I had a 50% chance, and I picked the wrong one,” Hao Ren thought.

“I know you like good students!” Zhao Yenzi suddenly said indignantly.

“Oh, why?” Hao Ren asked. He couldn’t keep up with Zhao Yanzi’s train of thoughts.

“That Class President! Isn’t she a good student! Smart, Kind, and Cute!” Zhao Yanzi said angrily.

“Well… What’s with the jealousy.” Hao Ren didn’t know whether to laugh or cry.

“Ah? How did you come in?” Zhao Yanzi suddenly turned around and asked.

Whoosh! A grey sword energy appeared in Hao Ren’s palm.

Zhao Yanzi eyes widened, and all the tears were gone as if they evaporated. “You… You have reached Kan-level already?”
