Bab 319: Chapter 319: What an Unfamiliar Feeling
...
In the resting room of the Skywater Team, a group of girls sat around the sofa, and among these graceful and charming girls, there was an anomaly. Zeng Yi, who had once been surrounded by a group of girls, felt a familiar and elegant fragrance lingering in his nose. It made him feel a bit embarrassed, sitting upright on the plush sofa without daring to move much.
Soon, Zeng Yi adapted. He had experienced similar situations before, back when he was the only boy among over a thousand girls at Skywater Academy. He had survived through that, so dealing with a dozen girls now felt relatively easy for him.
Indeed, after spending nearly half a year at Skywater Academy surrounded by beautiful girls, Zeng Yi had built up some resistance to their allure. He could keep his composure while being surrounded by their charm.
Just like now.
"I say, Ruoshui, even though I'm handsome. As a girl, I think it's better to maintain some distance. Could you please let go of my hand?" Zeng Yi couldn't help but glance at Qiu Ruoshui, who was holding onto his right arm.
Her hand was so soft, so smooth, and so fair.
His arm was deeply embedded in her soft and supple arm. The warm and gentle touch made Zeng Yi slightly unable to break free, so he didn't dare to move much.
A touch of fair and tender luster shimmered in his eyes, and Zeng Yi quickly averted his gaze.
Observing Zeng Yi's shy state, Qiu Ruoshui couldn't help but chuckle mischievously. She moved even closer to him, her lips lingering next to his ear as she exhaled a hint of fragrance, teasing "Don't tell me you don't like girls who are like flames?"
"That's too close."
Her breath brushed against Zeng Yi's cheek, making him tremble slightly, and he quickly shifted his body to the other side, creating some distance between himself and Qiu Ruoshui.
She's truly too seductive, like a fairy. Despite being a student at Skywater Academy and having a water attribute martial spirit, her personality lacked the gentleness reminiscent of flowing water; instead, it exuded the charm of flames.
Facing Qiu Ruoshui, Zeng Yi felt quite helpless. As long as this troublemaker dared to flirt with him, he could do nothing about it.
Seeing Zeng Yi trying to escape, Qiu Ruoshui couldn't help but cover her mouth and laugh playfully.
"Um, sorry. I didn't realize it was you just now." Shui Bing'er apologized to Zeng Yi with an embarrassed expression.
"Hahaha, it's fine." Zeng Yi forced a somewhat unnatural laugh, picked up a glass of water, and took a sip, concealing his embarrassment.
"Yue'er, why are you making a fuss for no reason? You got me worried, thinking something happened to you." Shui Bing'er scolded her sister with a fierce glare. If it weren't for her sister making a scene, she wouldn't have ended up in such an embarrassing situation.
Shui Yue'er awkwardly rubbed the back of her head and said, "I just got too excited upon seeing Big Brother Yi. It was just that... well~" As she spoke, Shui Yue'er mischievously stuck her tongue out at her sister.
"Alright, Ruoshui, it's my turn now. Please move away from Yi Gege." Then, Shui Yue'er pulled Qiu Ruoshui away from Zeng Yi's side and took her place.
Hey, what do you girls think you're treating me like, a cuddly toy?
Hearing Shui Yue'er's words, Zeng Yi couldn't help but roll his eyes at them, silently complaining.
Shui Yue'er happily sat next to Zeng Yi, skillfully wrapping her arms around his arm. She looked up at him with bright, shining eyes and said in a sweet and playful tone, "Yi Gege, it's been so long. Have you missed Yue'er at all?"
This time, Zeng Yi didn't feel the same nervous and excited emotions as when Qiu Ruoshui was holding his arm. Instead, he remained calm, even feeling some discomfort in his arm.
Zeng Yi turned his head to glance at Shui Yue'er with a plain expression and calmly said, "No."
"Huh? Why are you so heartless? Has it only been a short time, and you can't even bother to lie to me?" Shui Yue'er pouted.
"Hahaha~"
Seeing the two of them, the other girls couldn't help but giggle. For a while, the whole meeting room was filled with a lively atmosphere.
Zeng Yi chatted with them for a while in the Skywater Team's resting room and then, Shui Bing'er, the leader of the Skywater Team along with the girls, including Zeng Yi, went out for dinner.
The night fell, and in front of a luxury hotel, Zeng Yi stood across from the dazzling entrance, facing a group of beautiful girls.
Zeng Yi waved at them, "That's it for today. I'm going back first."
Shui Yue'er also waved her arm at Zeng Yi and shouted, "Yi Gege, our team has a match the day after tomorrow. Remember to come and support us!"
Zeng Yi laughed heartily, extended his hand towards them, and gave a thumbs-up. "Hahaha, don't worry, I'll definitely be there!"
"Goodbye!"
Under the girls' watchful eyes, Zeng Yi's figure disappeared into the night. After a while, the girls entered the hotel.
As night set in, the streets of Heaven Dou City were brightly lit, bustling with pedestrians and occasional shouts from shops.
Zeng Yi walked alone on the street. The night breeze brought a slight chill. Though he hadn't reached the point of being drunk, the scent of alcohol lingered on his body. When pedestrians passed by Zeng Yi, they couldn't help but frown, quickening their pace to walk past this drunkard.
"Master!"
When he reached an intersection, Zeng Yi couldn't help but stop, turn around, and see his disciple Yan Que and Xue Qinghe standing behind him.
"Hey, how did you two find me here?" Zeng Yi looked at them in surprise.
"Have you been drinking?" Xue Qinghe looked at Zeng Yi, furrowing her brows. Even though she was standing three meters away from him, she could still smell the strong scent of alcohol.
"Hold on." Xue Qinghe noticed something amiss. She quickly walked to Zeng Yi's side and carefully sniffed the smell on his body.
Perceiving Xue Qinghe's peculiar behavior, Zeng Yi couldn't understand the situation. "Hey, what are you doing?"
"Exactly." Xue Qinghe stood in front of Zeng Yi, narrowing her eyes as she stared at him. This made Zeng Yi feel uncomfortable, as if he were being caught red-handed in infidelity.
Wait, did I do something wrong? Why do I feel this way? Zeng Yi felt confused.
With a piercing gaze, Xue Qinghe stared at Zeng Yi and smirked, "There's a woman's scent on you, and not just one. Care to tell me where you went?"
"Could it be... you're talking about those kinds of places?"
Being looked at with disdain as if saying, "So, you're that kind of person", made Zeng Yi feel quite innocent. The place she was referring to, Zeng Yi knew what she meant—gentlemen's clubs searching for women?
Zeng Yi couldn't tolerate this. He was a man of integrity, how could he go to such places? That was too insulting.
"Come on, can't my friends also be women?" Zeng Yi retorted.
"Over a dozen female friends?"
"Yes, with my charm, isn't it normal? Besides, isn't there such a thing as innocent friendship between opposite genders?"
Upon hearing Zeng Yi's counterargument, Xue Qinghe couldn't help but sneer, feeling disappointed in him. "Zeng Yi, I really misjudged you." With those words, Xue Qinghe turned around and left, leaving Zeng Yi and Yan Que behind in a state of confusion amidst the night breeze.
