Chapter 167: It's Wasted Youth to Not Be Romantic_1

Xue Wu quickly ran back to her dorm room, closed the door, and stood there with her heart pounding thunderously.

Even now, the lingering sensation of the kiss she shared with Xu Ran remained between her lips, not fully dissipated.

The cool thinness of Xu Ran's lips continued to stimulate her heart, leaving her somewhat at a loss.

She looked at her torn shirt, the broken buttons exposing the lovely view beneath. Her palms brushed over her chest, feeling its firm contours.

Her figure surpassed those of Bing'er and Yue'er by a considerable margin.

"Stinky Teacher Xu Ran, such a pervert," lamented Xue Wu, with her heart pounding furiously as she recalled Xu Ran's naked gaze that seemed eager to devour her.

She stood in front of the large mirror in her boudoir, scrutinizing her figure and facial features. Having absorbed the energy of the Ten Thousand Year Cold Marrow, her Martial Soul had undergone a metamorphosis, and her body reaped substantial benefits as well.

Her figure had become better than before, her appearance seemed to have changed slightly, and her skin now appeared even more moist and delicate. If her beauty was only somewhat notable before, she was now truly a stunning girl.

Xue Wu looked at herself in the mirror, turned in satisfaction, and observed her body from every angle, a hint of contentment rising within her.

Surely, this version of herself would draw Xu Ran's attention.

After checking herself out, Xue Wu walked over to her wardrobe to choose a dress.

Her gaze settled on a corner of the closet, where a black miniskirt lay.

In the past, she had only tried it on out of curiosity and had never dared to wear such a short skirt in front of Shui Bing'er and the others. But now, she felt tempted.

Men die for those who appreciate them, women beautify themselves for those who delight in them.

The thought of dancing in front of Xu Ran made her want to dress up and look pretty.

Moreover, she didn't want her image in Xu Ran's heart to be inferior to that of Shui Bing'er and the others. Even though they were her close sisters, when it came to such matters, everyone felt a certain competitive spirit.

"But there are safety shorts underneath, there won't be a problem," murmured Xue Wu to herself. Since she had an underlayer, it wouldn't reveal anything.

Another fifteen minutes passed before Xue Wu had slowly finished dressing up.

Her top was a black high-waisted corset that showcased her full figure, with the corset ending just below her abdomen, revealing her delicate navel.

The bottom was a black miniskirt, her round legs straight and poised, covered by a pair of black knee-high socks.

Her black hair cascaded over her shoulders, strands curling softly along her cheeks to rest on her chest. A purple butterfly knot hairclip sat atop her head, adding an air of nobility and innocence to her seductive attire.

"Is this a bit too embarrassing?" she asked herself. She had been so engrossed in dressing up that she hadn't realized how enticing she looked. What if others saw her like this?

With her fame, it was impossible for anyone at Tianshui College not to recognize her.

"Whatever, I don't believe this look won't make boys' hearts flutter," Xue Wu thought, a touch of pride in her mind.

…

When Xue Wu came out, Xu Ran couldn't help but stare blankly at her appearance.

It was his first time seeing a girl wear a miniskirt, and especially with Xue Wu's beautiful legs, such an outfit intensified the youthful charm, stirring an indescribable desire.

"Teacher Xu Ran, do I look pretty?" Seeing the look of admiration in Xu Ran's eyes, Xue Wu couldn't help but ask.

"You look good." Xu Ran walked up and directly embraced Xue Wu's slender waist. Her delicate body was slim and soft, the high-waisted shirt revealing her fair and tender belly. Xu Ran held her in his arms, his hand resting on her belly, feeling the warmth and fragrance emanating from her.

"Teacher Xu Ran..." Xue Wu was somewhat unaccustomed to Xu Ran's affectionate gesture, and couldn't help but look at him with shy reproach.

Was Teacher Xu Ran openly taking advantage of her?

"Too skinny, you should eat more in the future; otherwise, I'll feel sorry." Xu Ran looked at Xue Wu's flat belly, without even a hint of excess flesh, and couldn't help but say earnestly.

"Teacher Xu Ran and I have no special relationship, so why do you care so much?" Xue Wu's heart thumped wildly as she watched Xu Ran show the same concern as a boyfriend would, and she couldn't help but pout.

Even now, there was no such relationship between her and Xu Ran; they were just teacher and student. It was just a closer teacher-student relationship.

"Relationship, what relationship do you want? Whatever relationship you want us to have, we can have," Xu Ran said with a playful smile curving his lips, looking like a mischievous nobleman.

"I..." Xue Wu pursed her lips, finding herself at a loss for words.

How could a girl like her say such things?

She looked at Xu Ran, batting her dark, big eyes, her expression revealing a myriad of sentiments.

Mixed within that myriad was a trace of grievance.

She had completely forgotten about their statuses at the moment; she felt like a little girl who had been wronged.

"From now on, you are my treasure," Xu Ran said mischievously, pulling Xue Wu a bit tighter into his embrace, savoring the gentle fragrance.

He, Xu Ran, was always a carefree man. 'Drink heartily today for today has wine; embrace the beauty in your arms with no reason to refuse.'

"Who is your treasure? Are Bing'er and Yue'er also your treasures?" Xue Wu's pretty face flushed, and as she glanced at Xu Ran, with emotions swirling in her eyes and her heart racing, she watched his affectionate gaze.

What did Xu Ran mean by this, was she going to be Xu Ran's woman from now on?

Would Xu Ran want her now?

Although she liked Xu Ran, she wasn't ready to rashly give away her first time. But if Xu Ran wanted her, what should she do?

"All of you are my treasures," Xu Ran said shamelessly.

'It's a waste of youth not to be flirtatious.'

Since ancient times, how many poets and scholars were known for their romantic prowess, surrounded by clusters of wives and concubines?

Giant of literature Tang Yin had scores of wives and concubines, and Liu Yong dallied with pleasure quarters, leaving behind countless romantic anecdotes.

What's the harm in Xu Ran having a few more wives? In the Soul Land, it wasn't against the law.

"Teacher Xu Ran, I saw you wrong," Xue Wu pouted, looking at Xu Ran as he spoke such shameless words with an unchanged expression, still appearing righteous, and couldn't help but pout again.

So that was the kind of person Teacher Xu Ran was.

With strength so powerful, did he approach them deliberately just for...
