章 71: Chapter 67: A Beautiful Lady Strikes Up a Conversation, The Gathering of the Four Beauties, Eyes Filled with Envy!_1
Shrek Village Entrance, surrounded by fences made of wooden railings.
The village was run-down, with even the academy's signboard being nothing more than a rotten plank of wood. At the doorway stood a dilapidated table, behind which, on a reclining chair, leaned a man over sixty years old.
The old man was dozing off with his eyes closed, while a sizable crowd had gathered in front of the table, forming a queue.
Most were parents bringing their children to enroll.
While waiting, men and women in their middle years clenched their children's hands anxiously, their bodies taut, faces filled with unease and eyes reflecting hopeful gazes towards the depths of the village.
They knew that today was of paramount importance.
If they could join Shrek, their children were destined to soar to great heights.
To transcend their commoner status and enter the ranks of the Tiandou Empire's nobility.
Among the waiting crowd, there were two stunningly attractive sights.
One wore pink stockings hugging tall, beautiful legs, playfully charming.
The other showed snow-white, slender legs beneath a fairy dress, aristocratic yet spirited.
The figures and beauty of the two women were rare even in Douluo, with their charm unwittingly drawing countless gazes from around them.
Several boys were secretly swallowing their saliva as they took furtive glances.
But they dared only to admire from afar, not venturing to approach and defile, for the women's presence was so intimidating, it shouted 'strangers keep out.'
This provoked wonder in the secretly watching men, thinking what kind of man would it take to approach such girls.
When Luo Yu approached the Shrek Village Entrance, both of the gorgeous women simultaneously let out calls.
"You're here?" Xiaowu, having been watching intently, brightened up and waved her hand in joy.
"It's you, how come you are here?!" Ning Rongrong's beautiful eyes filled with surprise; she didn't expect to see this man again today.
Luo Yu walked closer, nodding kindly at Xiaowu.
Then his gaze shifted towards Ning Rongrong, his lips curving into a smile.
"What, only you can be here, and I can't?"
"You can..." Ning Rongrong's eyes flickered, her look complex.
The man had given her a mysterious impression yesterday, which had piqued her curiosity.
But this odious man didn't give her a chance to understand him, running off so quickly.
She had thought it would be a long time before she'd see him again, but who could have guessed she'd bump into him today?
Determined, Ning Rongrong resolved that since they had met again, she would uncover all the little secrets he held.
Initially, the attention of the venue was on the two beauties.
But then, seeing two such exceptional girls greeting the same man cordially,
All eyes naturally shifted to Luo Yu, examining him closely.
They wanted to deduce what virtues and abilities this man possessed to be on such familiar terms with both girls.
At a glance, some young men rolled their eyes inwardly.
This guy seemed quite ordinary.
He doesn't seem any better than me.
His appearance is common, and he certainly doesn't look handsomer than me.
The others in the crowd were thinking much the same, feeling a trace of sourness and resentment.
The next second, their eyes widened in shock when they noticed the pair of twin sisters next to Luo Yu.
Wait a minute!
No way.
These two curvaceous twin beauties couldn't also be related to this guy, could they?
"How do you know so many girls?" Zhu Zhuqing frowned and queried Luo Yu, a tinge of jealousy in her voice.
Upon witnessing this scene, everyone drew a sharp breath of air.
The twin sisters were indeed with this man.
```
Counting the two who just said hello, that makes four beauties, right? What's going on here???
We're here to enroll in the academy.
And what are you here for?
Did you come here to flaunt your bevy of beauties??
Without having said much, Luo Yu had become the focal point of attention in just a short amount of time.
Feeling the faint glances of jealousy around him, Luo Yu subconsciously touched his nose, wondering what he had done to attract such strange looks.
"Hey, you've been asked a question. Who are these two pretty girls who greeted you?" Zhu Zhuqing subtly nudged the man in the back with her finger.
Faced with Zhu Zhuqing's question, Luo Yu didn't hide anything. He briefly explained how he had met Xiaowu and Ning Rongrong and then introduced the four girls to each other.
All being girls in the bloom of youth, and with Luo Yu making the introductions, they hit it off after a few words and quickly became friendly.
Onlookers had thought there was some incident, but instead, they saw the girls getting along merrily, which made them look at Luo Yu oddly.
Before the enrollment had even started, the four girls were chatting away, leaving Luo Yu out of the loop.
After getting to know one another,
Ning Rongrong looked at the Zhu Zhuqing sisters in surprise, "You two also ran away from home?"
"Sort of," Zhu Zhuyun didn't mention she had fled because she was being hunted.
Zhu Zhuqing's eyebrows raised as she looked at Ning Rongrong: "What about you, did you sneak out too?"
"Yeah," Ning Rongrong pouted, "It's too annoying at home; it's better to get out and get some air."
Xiaowu, eager to jump in,
Suddenly got pulled aside by a grim-faced Tang San.
"Brother San, what are you doing? I've just met some new friends and haven't had the chance to talk much," Xiaowu said, shrugging off Tang San's arm.
Tang San said sternly, "Xiaowu, have you forgotten what Brother San told you yesterday?"
"When you're out, try to keep your distance from strangers."
Xiaowu shook her head, "But they're not strangers. After we finish enrolling, won't they be our classmates?"
Tang San laughed, "Whether they'll be our classmates is another matter. Shrek Academy isn't that easy to get into, it's not a haven for scrubs. Last year they didn't even take anyone. Do you think all of them can get in?"
Xiaowu pouted, "Even if they don't get in, there's no harm in making friends, right?"
Tang San shook his head, "I told you yesterday that the guy is a rich kid, and you didn't believe me. Look now, he's out wandering with a pair of twins today. We don't need to get too close to people like him."
"Just think about it, a guy and two girls together—what good could possibly come of that?" Tang San scoffed.
Xiaowu's pretty face changed.
"You shouldn't talk about people behind their backs like that; if you have a problem, say it to my face."
Luo Yu walked over at this moment. Maybe others couldn't hear clearly.
But with his Immaculate Divine Body, he heard everything loud and clear. Tang San was being a little sly.
Tang San's eyes flickered sharply, locking onto the approaching man.
"My friend, you helped us yesterday, and we're grateful for that. If you need us to pay for the room, I can compensate you."
"But sorry, my sister and I are used to being on our own; we're not comfortable interacting with outsiders."
Tang San emphasized the word "outsiders" heavily, looking at Luo Yu with wariness.
He felt an instinctual need to be cautious around this guy.
Luo Yu pointed at Xiaowu, "Is it she who doesn't want to interact with outsiders, or is it you?"
Tang San seemed to be struck by the remark and his expression changed as he huffed, "Mister, you already have two female companions, isn't that enough for you? Why bother hounding my little sister Xiaowu?"
Luo Yu's expression turned cold, "What do you mean by that?"
"Nothing," Tang San shook his head, "I can't control who you're interested in, but don't you dare take an interest in Xiaowu, or I'll make you regret it for the rest of your life."
This guy must be overly protective of his sister, right?
Luo Yu searched his conscience and couldn't recall doing anything. Was Tang San's desire to control Xiaowu really that strong?
"Oh? I'm curious to see how you'll make me regret it for the rest of my life," Luo Yu said with an interested smile.
Instantly, Tang San's eyes became as sharp as a hawk's, emitting an invisible murderous intent.
