Dai Mubai Challenges Ao Tian

Dai Mubai said, "I overheard your conversation next door. Don't worry, Teacher Zhao is really fine now."

Only then did Tang San completely relax.

"And Teacher Zhao didn't let us touch those special weapons of yours. Remember to collect them tomorrow morning."

"Alright, thank you, Big Brother Mubai," Tang San expressed his gratitude.

Dai Mubai glanced at the next-door room where Ao Tian was, and said, "You haven't eaten for a whole day, are you hungry? Let me take you to the cafeteria for some food."

"Sure."

Tang San followed Dai Mubai out, and Oscar, who had already eaten, didn't go along.

Watching Tang San leave, Oscar breathed a sigh of relief. During the few minutes he spent with Tang San, he was afraid that Tang San would shoot those dreadful things at him too.

The food at Shrek Academy wasn't particularly delicious, but it was balanced in nutrition. Tang San was used to simple meals, so he didn't find it bad.

Dai Mubai enthusiastically served Tang San a meal, sitting aside and watching Tang San finish. This friendly gesture touched Tang San deeply.

For the first time, someone other than his dad and teachers treated him so kindly.

After the meal, Dai Mubai said, "Tang San, let's take a walk on the training ground. There's something I'd like to ask you."

Tang San also didn't say anything, following Dai Mubai to the central training ground of the academy.

"Big Brother Mubai, what do you want to ask me?" Tang San asked.

Dai Mubai had already prepared his questions and asked, "Tang San, how much do you know about Ao Tian, Gu Yuena, and that Xiao Wu? Have you known each other for a long time?"

"Big Brother Mubai, are you trying to get to know the new students? Why don't you go ask them personally?" Tang San asked.

Dai Mubai said, "I met them in Suotuo City yesterday and there was a bit of unpleasantness. Since you know them, I thought I'd ask you."

"I see." Tang San nodded and said, "Ao Tian and Gu Yuena, as well as Xiao Wu, were all from the same junior academy as me. Ao Tian and Gu Yuena are both a bit proud and not easy to get along with. Xiao Wu is more easygoing, as long as you don't make her dislike you."

Dai Mubai sighed, "Maybe I did something to make Xiao Wu dislike me. She saw me with those two girls entering the hotel yesterday, so she's been mocking me today, you saw that too."

Tang San patted Dai Mubai's shoulder, comforting him, "Don't worry, Xiao Wu is a pretty kind person. Just behave better in the future, and everyone can get along well."

Dai Mubai said, "I understand. By the way, are Ao Tian, Gu Yuena, and Xiao Wu in romantic relationships? They seem very intimate in their actions and behavior."

Tang San shook his head, "Probably not. Although they get along very well, I've never seen them hold hands or kiss, and they've never announced a romantic relationship."

"I thought so." A smile appeared on Dai Mubai's face. He said, "With my extensive experience with women, I can tell from Gu Yuena's demeanor and way of walking that she's still an innocent girl. If Ao Tian had that kind of relationship with her, how could he resist the temptation of such a beautiful girl?"

Tang San looked at Dai Mubai with a somewhat shocked expression. He could hear a different meaning in Dai Mubai's words. Unable to hold back, he furrowed his brows and asked, "Big Brother Mubai, do you have feelings for Gu Yuena?"

Dai Mubai nodded, patting Tang San's shoulder and laughing, "Exactly, thanks to you, kid, for giving me such important information. Originally, I was about to give up today, but now, I'm determined again. To thank you, I'll treat you to dinner in Suotuo City tomorrow."

Tang San's expression changed slightly as he asked, "Don't you already have two girlfriends?"

Dai Mubai smiled, "Those two I'm just playing around with. If you want, I can introduce a few to you too. But Gu Yuena, I've realized I'm really attracted to her. I truly want to have a love that's unforgettable with her."

Tang San gave Dai Mubai's hand off his shoulder a forceful pat, his voice cold as he said, "I never thought you were this kind of person."

Dai Mubai was momentarily stunned, looking at Tang San's gradually chilling expression. He felt a shift in his heart and asked, "Tang San, could it be that you also have feelings for Gu Yuena..."

Tang San sneered, "I've liked her since the first day I saw her. It's been a full five years. She's such a pure and flawless girl, I absolutely won't allow someone like you, who casually plays with feelings, to hurt her."

Upon hearing Tang San's words, the excitement that Dai Mubai had shown just moments ago vanished instantly. He frowned and asked, "Have you pursued her for such a long time?"

Tang San remained silent for a moment and then nodded slowly, saying, "Yes."

Dai Mubai continued, "Based on my experience with emotions, if you've known her for this long and she still hasn't accepted you, it means she doesn't have feelings for you. Perhaps you should consider shifting your focus and try pursuing other girls."

Tang San's gaze grew colder as he said, "Do you think pursuing girls is just a game for me, like it is for you? Loving someone should be a lifetime commitment. Dai Mubai, your behavior disgusts me."

Dai Mubai admitted, "You're right, but I've never been genuinely attracted to someone before. This time, I truly find myself drawn to her. I'm willing to give her my heart."

A surge of anger coursed through Tang San. He had never been this furious before, and his soul power was stirred up by his emotions.

Sensing Tang San's state, Dai Mubai spoke in a low voice, "How about this, since she hasn't accepted you yet, let's compete fairly. What do you say?"

Tang San didn't say a word and turned to leave.

He was afraid that if he stayed any longer, he might not be able to restrain himself from confronting Dai Mubai physically.

However, just as he turned, Tang San froze in place. Not far ahead of him stood a figure in white, silently observing him and Dai Mubai.

"Ao Tian," Tang San said.

Ao Tian emerged from the shadows and approached Tang San and Dai Mubai, teasingly asking, "Are you two really arguing about my wife here so late at night? Is this appropriate?"

Both Tang San and Dai Mubai were taken aback, and Dai Mubai's inquiring gaze turned to Tang San.

Weren't they not a couple? What was going on?

Tang San found it hard to believe and asked, "Ao Tian, when did you and Gu Yuena get together?"

"This summer," Ao Tian replied.

"Did she really agree to be with you?" Tang San asked again.

"Yes."

Tang San didn't say another word. He turned and walked away. He understood that with the intimate relationship between Gu Yuena and Ao Tian, once they confirmed their romantic relationship, he basically had no hope.

Although he felt a pang in his heart, he had to accept this brutal blow.

Ao Tian watched as Tang San left and then turned to Dai Mubai, smiling, "What's this? Are you still interested in my wife?"

Dai Mubai felt unwilling, especially when he thought about how Gu Yuena was still a virgin. She was such a beautiful fairy. Did he really have to let go so easily?

What he had said to Tang San earlier was true. He really had fallen for a girl for the first time.

So, he decided to struggle a bit more.

"Ao Tian, I want to have a man-to-man contest with you," Dai Mubai declared.
