133: Who is Situ Kong? I don't know him!
“Oh no!” Xia Qi cried out in his heart, feeling a bad premonition.
He had never expected Lina to find her way to Shengjing University.
“This… this is my roommate, and this is Lina.”
Xia Qi introduced them for the first time with a guilty conscience, but Yun Qingyue and Yu Qiu completely ignored Xia Qi and stared intently at Lina.
That figure, that face.
It’s over, another competitor has appeared.
Excellent boys often attract a group of beautiful girls.
This was something the girls who liked Xia Qi were well aware of.
But what Lina hadn't expected was that Xia Qi was actually living with two such beautiful girls.
Wouldn't he be living like an emperor every night?
“Alright, you stinky Xia Qi, I was wondering why you didn't come to find me, turns out you had beautiful companions, and two of them at that.”
Lina pinched the soft flesh on Xia Qi's waist, tears welling up in her eyes again from anger.
Yun Qingyue and Yu Qiu were fine; they didn't know the relationship between Xia Qi and Lina yet, thinking she was just another competitor like Luo Zisheng.
“Stop, stop!”
Xia Qi grimaced and pried Lina's hand away.
“No, when did you say you were coming to the capital?”
At these words, Lina also froze.
Right, the last time she met Xia Qi was in Xijiang Province, and she indeed hadn't told Xia Qi that she had come to the capital.
Originally, she thought Xia Qi would go back to Heishi and wanted to give him a surprise.
It seemed she really hadn't mentioned it at all.
“...Did I not tell you?”
“No, you didn't.”
Xia Qi looked innocent; if he had known Lina was in the capital, he would definitely have gone to find her.
“However, what's going on with you now? How did you end up in Shengjing?”
After inviting Lina into the house, the group sat on the sofa and chatted.
“Oh, oh, I'm an Instructor now, and I came to see you.”
“Instructor? Aren't you a trader…?”
Even as naive as Xia Qi was now, he knew Lina's background was not as simple as he had imagined.
This was Shengjing University, the number one university in the world.
Could one just enter such an academy?
Yet Lina had indeed appeared before him.
Then Lina's identity was probably not as simple as a trader.
“Uh, you wouldn't happen to be the black market boss's daughter, would you?”
Xia Qi looked at Lina suspiciously, guessing.
“Cough cough... No, no, I don't have that kind of background.”
Lina waved her hands repeatedly, not wanting Xia Qi to know her identity yet.
“Oh, don't ask so many questions, tell me about your situation, you almost distracted me.”
After speaking, Lina's gaze turned to Yun Qingyue and Yu Qiu.
Xia Qi helplessly introduced the three to each other, of course, the matters of ‘lessons’ with Lina were naturally omitted.
“So that's it, you're the daughter of the Yun Family of Jiangcheng, and you, from the Yu Family, the assassin family of Tongcheng, both are scions of aristocratic families.”
Lina, being well-informed, immediately knew the family backgrounds of these two girls.
“Sister Lina, how did you and Xia Qi meet?”
Yun Qingyue asked curiously.
“Xia Qi and I also met in Jiangcheng, it was probably the day after you completed your Awakening.”
Lina recalled, thinking that it had been over a month since she met Xia Qi.
Although there was that layer of relationship between them, they hadn't officially confirmed their romantic relationship on the surface.
“Then are you Xia Qi's girlfriend?”
Yu Qiu also interjected.
This question went straight to the point.
“...No.”
Lina hesitated for a long time, and finally shook her head.
At these words, everyone else sighed.
Xia Qi felt a little guilty in his heart; he had never confirmed their relationship with Lina, which felt a bit like a scumbag.
Yun Qingyue and Yu Qiu, on the other hand, breathed a sigh of relief; at least Xia Qi was still single, and they still had a chance.
Lina actually had her own little scheme in her heart; she could play and make a fuss, but confirming a relationship was not possible at the moment.
Precisely because her father was the controller of the black market, and she was his only daughter, the choice of a husband had to be approved by her father.
“This brat got off easy.”
A faint trace of melancholy appeared on Lina's face.
At least for now, her father would definitely not think highly of Xia Qi.
No matter how powerful an S-Rank Talent was, it was still just an S-Rank Talent.
“It’s a pity, if only Xia Qi had an SSS-Rank Talent.”
Lina thought to herself.
That way, even if her father tried to obstruct her, she would have an excuse to persuade him.
An S-Rank Talent was still a bit lacking.
After chatting for a while, everyone seemed a bit distracted, and Xia Qi glanced at the time, ending the casual conversation first.
“Alright, time to get busy, I'm going to the dungeon.”
“Are you kicking me out already?”
Lina looked at Xia Qi with some resentment.
“No, I'm not kicking you out; you're an Instructor now, how could I kick you out?”
“That's more like it. I've decided, I'm staying here.”
Lina said with a joyful smile.
“???” Xia Qi!
“???” Yun Qingyue.
“???” Yu Qiu.
The three of them were completely bewildered by Lina's words.
“Don't Instructors have dorms?”
“So you're willing to let a fellow villager stay but not me?”
For a moment, Xia Qi was directly rendered speechless by Lina's retort.
He took a deep breath, and after thinking about it, living with two girls was living, and living with three girls was also living.
It seemed there was no difference.
“Alright, you can stay on the third floor.”
“Oh yeah, you said it, go get busy.”
Lina was as happy as a child, and after achieving her goal, she immediately issued a dismissal order.
Xia Qi could only shake his head helplessly.
It had only been a few days since school started, and this single small villa had turned into a four-person communal dormitory.
If he had known, he shouldn't have let Yun Qingyue and Yu Qiu move in in the first place.
He really didn't know how he would live the days ahead.
Yun Qingyue and Yu Qiu exchanged glances, they could only smile wryly.
Who told them they also moved in this way? Now that Lina was added, their subtly hostile relationship instantly disappeared.
It transformed into an even stronger alliance of best friends.
“We must not let this Lina trick Brother Xia Qi away.”
“Right, Brother Xia Qi is too naive, and this Lina looks very worldly, not a good person.”
The two girls communicated silently with their eyes, surprisingly understanding each other's meaning.
One can only say that women are truly marvelous creatures.
Xia Qi didn't bother with all that, and leisurely went to the Home of Dungeons alone.
If Lina wanted to stay, she could stay; as long as she threw tantrums, he could endure it.
Presumably, Lina wasn't that stupid; she was still quite sensible.
“You are Xia Qi.”
Just as he was thinking, a voice interrupted Xia Qi's thoughts.
Xia Qi looked up and saw someone looking at him at the entrance of the Home of Dungeons.
“Something wrong?”
He didn't know this person, and simply responded.
“Senior Brother Sikong wants to see you, come with me.”
The person's lips curled up, and his tone carried an inexplicable arrogance.
People from West Wind Academy all had the same demeanor.
He believed that Xia Qi couldn't possibly not go with him.
“No time!”
Xia Qi directly ignored the other party and walked into the Home of Dungeons.
