59: Chapter 59 Unfamiliar
The sound of high heels clicking on the ground made his heart sway uncontrollably.
If he could curry favor with Jiang Luoli, or even marry this glamorous senior...
Then, with her strength and the power behind her, his future would be limitless!
Thinking of this, he intended to set Su Chen aside and tidy his appearance to go forward and get acquainted.
However, he didn't watch his step and was tripped by a loose floor tile, nearly making a fool of himself.
He steadied himself and turned to look at Su Chen, who was standing not far away with his arms crossed, seemingly also looking in Jiang Luoli's direction.
He immediately flared up with anger, preparing to vent all his frustration on his cousin, who was known as a "jinx."
"Su Chen, why aren't you staying in your urban village? What are you doing at our F University?"
"Is this a place you're allowed to come to?"
Su Zixi spoke mockingly, intentionally raising his voice to attract the attention of Jiang Luoli and the surrounding students.
Su Chen didn't even bother to lift his eyes.
Under his spiritual power, Su Zixi's awakened ability and meager cultivation were completely insignificant.
If not for his wariness of official intervention, he could have easily wiped Su Zixi out right here.
As for the tile under Su Zixi's foot, it naturally wasn't his doing either.
After obtaining the "Child of Fortune" trait, Su Chen received the favor of the Heavenly Dao.
Anyone with ill intentions toward him whose strength was far weaker than his would be 'gifted' the same treatment Su Chen had before his first investment.
When the boss speaks, the lackeys naturally follow.
They were well aware of the conflict between Su Zixi and Su Chen.
Xin Zhanhe immediately chimed in.
"Exactly! Look at how pathetic you look. Why don't you kneel and beg your big brothers? Maybe we'll introduce you to a part-time job!"
Shang Weizhen also spoke sarcastically.
"Brother Zixi is now a preparatory member about to join the Huayu Association. That's a place only 'Espers' can enter. No joke, Brother Zixi could punch you to death right now!"
Su Chen watched their performance expressionlessly, as if watching a clumsy farce.
Usually, he might have been in the mood to play along.
But now, his heart was filled with Su Wanyue's pale face and the words in the diary.
He had no interest in dealing with these few flies.
He simply uttered a few words calmly.
"I'm waiting for Jiang Luoli."
Originally, when Shang Weizhen mentioned the Huayu Association, Su Zixi's vanity was greatly satisfied.
But when Su Chen said this, he couldn't help but feel both angry and amused.
He deliberately raised his voice so Jiang Luoli could hear.
He wanted to use the hands of this ice-cold senior to teach his cousin a lesson.
"You're waiting for Jiang Luoli?"
"Su Chen, it's not that I, as your older brother, am lecturing you, but you need to know your place."
"Do you know who Senior Jiang Luoli is?"
"The only daughter of a top wealthy family in Jianghai City, a core member of the Huayu Association, and a prominent figure among the younger generation of martial artists in Jianghai City."
"She is an existence that even I have to look up to."
"A pauper like you, who doesn't even know what a martial artist is, should stop embarrassing yourself here and get lost."
Even the students around who held some admiration for Jiang Luoli nodded in agreement after hearing Su Chen's words.
Shang Weizhen and Xin Zhanhe were even more stunned, as if they had heard the biggest joke in the world, before bursting into even more exaggerated laughter.
"Hahaha! He said he's waiting for Senior Jiang?"
"Su Chen, are you so poor you're having hallucinations?"
But soon, the smiles on the three of them came to an abrupt halt.
Because that graceful figure they called unattainable was now walking over elegantly.
Jiang Luoli didn't even glance at Su Zixi and the other two, as if they were just thin air.
She walked straight up to Su Chen and naturally reached out her arms.
She intimately linked her arm with Su Chen's.
In an instant, Su Chen clearly felt his arm sink into a soft, elastic warmth like marshmallows.
Jiang Luoli's stunningly full bust, the fantasy of countless men, pressed tightly against the outside of his arm without any reservation.
A warm sensation came through the thin fabric.
"Junior Su Chen, sorry for the wait."
"I'm sorry, there was a bit of a traffic jam on the way."
Jiang Luoli tilted her beautiful face up, giving Su Chen a smile that was slightly apologetic yet mixed with ambiguity and intimacy.
Her captivating phoenix eyes shimmered with a strong sense of possessiveness.
The elegant scent of gardenia on her body also drifted by with the wind, making one feel refreshed.
"I haven't been waiting long."
Su Chen shook his head; at this moment, he was in no mood to dwell on such things.
It was only then that Jiang Luoli noticed the three petrified men beside her.
Her phoenix eyes swept over them condescendingly, as if looking at three bags of trash.
"Who are these three?"
Su Chen didn't bother to introduce them, only saying faintly:
"We're not close."
At this moment, let alone the extras around them.
Even Su Zixi could only open his mouth, unable to make a sound.
Xin Zhanhe and Shang Weizhen turned pale, wishing they could find a hole to crawl into.
The intimate interaction between Su Chen and Jiang Luoli, which looked like that of a boyfriend and girlfriend, completely shattered their composure.
Jiang Luoli was clever; she had already guessed the general situation from the snippets of conversation she heard and the behavior of the three men.
Her red lips curled slightly, and her gaze swept over the three of them indifferently, making them feel as if they had fallen into an ice cellar.
"Oh, it's good that you're not close."
"Then let's go. The test is about to start, and there's still some distance from the school gate to the lab where the test is being held."
As she spoke, she intimately linked arms with Su Chen, leaning halfway against his side.
It was as if she were staking her claim.
Under the gaze of countless shocked, envious, and jealous eyes.
She took a step with her long legs clad in black stockings, her high heels clicking crisply.
She walked straight toward the most modern Research Building inside F University.
On the way, she would occasionally brush her high heels against Su Chen's trouser legs.
Behind them, the onlookers were like statues under a freezing spell, frozen in place, their faces turning various shades of red and blue.
The most embarrassed were Su Zixi and the other two.
His hand was still awkwardly suspended in mid-air, and his face felt burning hot.
He watched Jiang Luoli's slender figure pressed tightly against Su Chen.
Especially the breathtaking curve of the compression where their arms intertwined.
His eyes were full of disbelief, shame, and anger.
Jiang Luoli, who was the perfect goddess in his heart, would actually treat such a brat...
Su Zixi felt his throat go dry, and only one thought swirled wildly in his mind.
"How is it possible... how did that poor kid Su Chen do it?"
Xin Zhanhe took two steps forward and patted Su Zixi's shoulder.
"Boss."
"There's no need to worry about that Su Chen."
"You're about to become a formal member of the Huayu Association, and that slot for the Heroic Spirit Contract Ceremony in Jinguan City will most likely be yours."
"If you really become a martial artist with a Contracted Heroic Spirit, never mind Su Chen, even that blind bitch Jiang Luoli will have to kneel and lick your boots!"
Su Zixi thought about it, and his clenched fists immediately relaxed.
"You're right..."
"I can't change anything now. I can only work hard to secure that slot for the Heroic Spirit Contract Ceremony in Jinguan City."
"If everything goes well, as a Contracted Martial Artist, I'll definitely make this useless cousin of mine disappear first."
"Then I'll make Jiang Luoli, that woman with no eye for quality, get a good taste of me!"
