Chapter 1688: Invited (Please Subscribe)_1

Xu Xiaoyan, who was standing still with Wu Siduo, secretly thought to herself, "Lizhi, Wulin, Xie Xie, I've helped all of you so much, you better seize this opportunity."

Gu Yue and the others are very popular at the academy, so surely this time many male students will confess to them!

If you don't act quickly, you might regret it when it's too late!

Wu Siduo, standing by her side, glanced at her and said, "Xiao Yan, you've separated us all to give those six a chance to be alone, right?"

Seeing her say this, Xu Xiaoyan didn't bother to hide her intentions and laughed lightly, "That's right, apart from Ye Hui and Xie Xie being a bit of a stretch, Lizhi and Xing Lan, Wulin and Gu Yue, the four of them do like each other, it's just that no one has pierced that layer of paper yet!"

Wu Siduo nodded thoughtfully, "I see, but Xiao Yan, you seem to know so much, so who do you like?"

Xu Xiaoyan playfully blinked her beautiful eyes, "Me? I... of course, I like Teacher Xu, hehe!"

Wu Siduo showed a trace of surprise, but said nothing in objection, "Teacher Xu? I like him too, of course, in the way of a student's affection for her teacher!"

Xu Xiaoyan licked her tender lips, "The idea of competing with Teacher Shen for Teacher Xu, just thinking about it is thrilling..."

Soon after, she turned to Wu Siduo with curiosity, "What about you, Wu Siduo? Don't you have a crush on any male student?"

Wu Siduo laughed at herself, "No, and with my personality, is it likely that someone will like me?"

Xu Xiaoyan, however, disagreed, "You never know, if a boy confesses to you, make sure you accept!"

Wu Siduo's lips curled into a smile, "Okay, as long as he's stronger than me."

Xu Xiaoyan's face darkened in thought, "Then forget about it, at the whole Shrek Academy, there are hardly any male students stronger than you..."

Talking about feelings with Wu Siduo really was the biggest mistake!

After shaking her head, she expertly hooked arms with Wu Siduo, "Let's not talk about this anymore, let's go buy some pretty things."

Wu Siduo exclaimed, "Xiao Yan, your hand..."

She had never been so intimately close with someone before, and her face couldn't help but flush red...

Seeing this reaction, Xu Xiaoyan's face broke into a sly smile, "No way, Wu Siduo, you haven't had physical contact with anyone else before?"

Looks like there's fun to be had in the future! Wu Siduo was unexpectedly sensitive to physical touch...

Wu Siduo found it a bit embarrassing to say, "Um... so..."

Xu Xiaoyan pointed ahead, "Don't be scared, we're both girls, it's normal to do this. Look there, those girls are also walking arm in arm!"

Wu Siduo glanced over and saw indeed two girls walking hand in hand ahead, so she stopped struggling...

...

As for Yue Zhengyu, he was wandering aimlessly on the busy streets...

Looking at the crowds around him, he said in confusion, "Huh? Who am I? What am I doing here? Why does it feel so desolate watching everyone else walking in pairs?"

No, it must be my imagination, a handsome man like me should be surrounded by admirers on both sides...

The next second, he saw a radiant, stylish woman approaching ahead...

He adjusted his clothing and walked towards her with a charming smile, "Beautiful lady, are you alone? Would you like me to..."

"Slap!"

Without a doubt, his face now sported a bright red handprint!

The woman cursed impulsively, "Pervert!!"

After saying that, she quickly made her exit...

Yue Zhengyu, regaining his composure, covered his cheek and protested, "Hey, get it right, have you ever seen a pervert as handsome and dashing as me? I'm an inner court student from Shrek Academy!"

...

In the evening, Tang Wulin and the others gathered at the agreed-upon location...

Xu Xiaoyan spoke with a hint of mischief, "Judging by everyone's expressions, it seems our gains from this trip have been pretty good, right?"

Ye Xinglan nodded cheerfully, "Yeah! I managed to buy some clothes that I'm satisfied with, just... they're not dresses!"

After finishing her sentence, she gave Xu Lizhi, who was hiding behind her, a profound glance...

Tang Wulin smiled as well and said, "We did alright too; after wandering around for a bit, we just went to eat."

Xie Xie bragged with a smug look, "Of course, who wouldn't with someone as handsome and dashing as me around? Not only that, but I also got Ye Hui..."

Before he could finish, Yuanen Yehui coldly interjected, "Just try saying it and you're dead!"

With her dignity on the line, how could she possibly let Xie Xie divulge that he bought clothes for her!

Xie Xie patted his chest solemnly, "Don't worry, Ye Hui, I haven't even mentioned that thing, and this matter will also be our little secret!"

Yue Zhengyu, already feeling irritated, naturally couldn't help but scoff, "Tsk, Xie Xie, the way you talk, anyone who doesn't know better would think something's going on between you and Ye Hui!"

Xie Xie made a face, "Cut it out, you lonely old man! Probably crying secretly all by yourself!"

Seeing the conversation taking a wrong turn, Xu Xiaoyan immediately cut in, "It's not too late now. Let's head back to the academy and see what everyone has bought."

Everyone nodded in agreement, ready to return to the academy...

Gu Yue then coughed, "Um, I have something to do and need to leave for a bit!"

These words immediately aroused the displeasure of the others...

"Gu Yue, you're not going to disappear on us again, are you??"

"Yeah, we all get worried every time you vanish!"

"Gu Yue, this time, can you at least tell us where you're going? If you consider us your friends, that is!"

Gu Yue well understood that her frequent departures had caused a crisis of trust and said with confidence, "I won't, I promise. As for where I'm going, it's to the Spirit Pagoda, and I should be back at the academy in no time."

This appeased everyone quite a bit...

After all, a visit to the Spirit Pagoda wouldn't take too long!

Tang Wulin whispered, close to her ear, "Gu Yue, do you need me to accompany you?"

It was late at night, and Gu Yue was on her own, making him very uneasy!

"No need, and besides, this is Shrek City; it's very safe!"

Tang Wulin didn't insist, "Then be careful, and contact me... or any of us if you need anything."

"Alright, then I'll be off first..."

After exchanging a few words, Gu Yue hastened towards the Spirit Pagoda at her quickest pace...

...

She didn't expect to be immediately recognized by the receptionist upon entering the Spirit Pagoda...

The receptionist asked respectfully, "You must be Gu Yue, the one personally invited by the Pagoda Master, right?"

Gu Yue replied calmly, "Yes, that's me. Is there something Lord of the Cold Tower wants from me?"

The members of the Spirit Pagoda were treating her with such respect?

There must be a catch!

The employee shook her head, "I'm not quite sure myself, but the Pagoda Master should still be in the resting room; please follow me..."
