Chapter 176 - Waiting For a Day

More than ten minutes later, the dishes were served.

Duan Ye also came back. He pretended that nothing had happened and followed Chen Yu to fight for the delicacies on the table.

Bahuang Yao held a knife and fork in her hand and elegantly cut the steak. She put it into the small mouth of a cherry and slowly chewed it.

“Look at Bahuang Yao, and then look at you. You don’t seem to have any manners.” Chen Yu looked at Duan Ye with disdain. “I’m really ashamed to be with you.”

“Your manners are burning. Tell me, why is it so wet…” Duan Ye’s mouth was stuffed with food as he mumbled.

“Come, I’ll teach you properly today.”

Standing up, Chen Yu pulled up the confused Bahuang Yao and spoke with confidence. “In western food, the first etiquette must be observed. That is, ladies first. We can only sit down after the ladies sit down.”

Bahuang Yao: “I… I have already sat down.”

“It’s okay.” Chen Yu smiled. “Sit again.”

“…”

After Bahuang Yao sat down, Chen Yu then raised his head and sat down. He looked at Duan Ye and said, “The second rule, in western food, when eating food, it’s better to eat it in one bite.”

“It’s better to eat it in one bite…” Duan Ye swallowed the food with a face full of curiosity.

“Yes.” Nodding his head, Chen Yu picked up a fork and used the leap earth technique to fork up a piece of French bread. Then, he smeared a layer of butter on it and explained, “It’s better to eat it in one bite. It means to swallow it in one bite.”

After saying that, he stuffed the entire piece of bread into his mouth.

“Clang…” Bahuang Yao was dumbstruck. The knife and fork in her hand fell off.

Duan Ye’s eyes lit up and he clapped his hands repeatedly. “So that’s how it is…”

“Nhsgoah.” Chen Yu nodded his head vaguely.

This piece of bread was too big. He could not bite it down.

Duan Ye ‘raised’ the fork and followed suit. He forked a piece of steak, stuffed it into his mouth, and chewed hard.

The oil flowed out from his mouth and lay on his clothes.

“No!” Chen Yu pointed at Duan Ye’s clothes and raised his head. “Don le de fooh dri ontu yoh glodes (don’t let the food drip onto your clothes). Raise your head.”

“Oh, oh.” Duan Ye understood and also raised his head and pursed his lips.

Sure enough, the oil would not spill out from his mouth…

After swallowing the food, Chen Yu concluded, “Look up at the sky at a 45-degree angle.”

After swallowing the food, Duan Ye added, “That’s the angle at which saliva doesn’t leave behind.”

“…” Bahuang Yao couldn’t eat anymore.

“Have you learned it?” Chen Yu asked.

“Yes, I’ve learned it.”

“Then in the future, eat western food in such a professional manner. We can’t let others see Class 2 as a joke.”

“That’s right, that’s right. Brother Yu, you really know a lot.”

“If you read a lot, you’ll naturally know.” Chen Yu was modest. Then, he looked at Bahuang Yao. “Why aren’t you eating?”

“No… I’m not hungry anymore.”

“That’s fine. If you’re not eating, then do something serious. Help me check what courses our school has these past few days.”

“Okay.” Nodding, Bahuang Yao took out an old cell phone and opened the browser. “It’s a bit slow. Wait a moment.”

“There’s no rush.” Swallowing another piece of bread, Chen Yu looked at Bahuang Yao at a 45-degree angle. “Looking at your western food skills, you’re not inferior to me. You must have learned it professionally.”

“…Right.”

“The Bahuang family is a big family,” Duan Ye interrupted. “Of course they’ll learn these etiquette things.”

“No.” The girl shook her head, feeling a little disappointed. “Only my brother and I have learned it.”

Noticing the change in Bahuang Yao’s expression, Duan Ye reacted quickly and immediately changed the topic. “I know your brother. Bahuang Yi, right?”

“Yes.”

“He’s quite a powerful person. My parents used to think highly of him. He can be considered half an idol of mine.” Duan Ye picked up a tissue. He wiped his mouth. “It’s a pity that their son is now in the same school as Bahuang Yi, but they can’t see him. Otherwise, they would be very happy. This is also the reason why I came to Beijing University.”

“Oh.” Chen Yu replied and buried his head in his work.

Bahuang Yao also lowered her head and did not say a word.

The originally lively private room became quiet just like that.

After throwing away the tissue, Duan Ye leaned back on his chair and looked at the ceiling. His eyes narrowed slightly. After a long while, he asked, “Brother Yu, why did you come to Beijing University?”

“Me?”

“Yes.”

“Beijing is very safe, right? It might be able to withstand the Beast Tide. You won’t be afraid even if the Beast Tide comes.”

“What else?”

“Also… to find trouble with someone.” Chen Yu put down his knife and fork and drank half a mouthful of water. “Someone at Beijing University provoked me.”

“Seeking revenge?”

“Not really.”

“Oh…” Duan Ye nodded thoughtfully. Then, he looked at Bahuang Yao. “Why did you come to Beijing University?”

Chen Yu: “Her father reported for her.”

Bahuang Yao: “…Yes.”

“I know about the things that happened between you and your family.” Duan Ye spread his hands. “I come from a poor family and don’t understand the ways of a big family. But if you want to break free, I can give you a way. It will definitely work.”

“What?” Bahuang Yao looked up.

“Find someone to elope with.”

Chen Yu: “…”

It was just a joke, but the girl began to think seriously. Then, she subconsciously looked at Chen Yu.

Chen Yu: “…”

Bahuang Yao: “…”

Chen Yu: “You’re too peaceful.”

Bahuang Yao: “…”

Duan Ye: “The red flames are in a trance, hahahaha…”

…

In the wilderness.

Under the afterglow of the sun, the plains at dusk reflected a dazzling golden color.

A goat-like exotic beast was lying in the grass, tearing at the corpse of a wild boar.

Its body wasn’t big.

From its appearance, it was at most Level 2.

However, just as it was about to eat half of the wild boar’s corpse, it suddenly raised its goat head and looked forward with its red eyes.

Hum…

Hum hum hum…

Space started to distort.

The light gradually distorted.

A sharp claw actually broke free from the void.

“Wu–”

Accompanied by a sound similar to the cry of a baby, the mountain eagle, which was more than ten meters long, rushed out of the distorted space.

“Wu–”

“Wu wu–”

After circling in the air for a moment, the mountain eagle beast opened its blood-red eyes and flew towards the east.

Dong dong…

The goat-shaped beast on the ground also got up. It didn’t eat any more food. As if it had been controlled, it opened its four legs and walked toward the east in a daze.

Weng–

It crawled out of the space of the beast and returned to normal.

But its ‘toughness’ was already damaged.

In less than half an hour, another tiger-shaped beast crawled out.

Twenty-five minutes later, it was a spider-shaped beast.

Twenty minutes later, it was a wolf-shaped exotic beast…

The space seemed to have turned into an invisible tunnel. More and more exotic beasts were ‘born’ from within, and their speed was getting faster and faster.

Weng…

Weng… Weng…

A kilometer away, another space was distorted and torn apart.

Zhizhi–

A mantis that was more than forty meters tall struggled to crawl out. It moved its savage mouthparts and walked toward the east.

And the east…

Was the direction of the capital…

…

After eating, they left the restaurant.

It was already getting dark outside.

The three of them walked forward for some distance together. Chen Yu suggested, “It’s getting dark. Let’s disband like this.”

“Okay.” Duan Ye nodded. “What plans does everyone have next?”

Bahuang Yao: “I’m going to focus on cultivating my Qi for a period of time.”

Chen Yu: “I might have to go out in a few days.”

“Where?” Duan Ye was surprised.

“It’s not confirmed.” Chen Yu chose to keep it a secret. “But if I do, I’m leaving the capital.”

“Do you need us to go with you?”

“No, I can do it myself.” Chen Yu shook his head. “We have enough credits, so we don’t need to take on missions for the time being. Let’s all increase our strength. When I come back, we’ll collect the loans together and play rough.”

“Yes!” Duan Ye gave him a thumbs up. “Rough!”

Chen Yu: “You f*cking…”

“…” Bahuang Yao secretly peeked at his chest. No one knew what she was thinking…

“Is there anything else? If there’s nothing else, then you’re dismissed.”

“Okay!” Duan Ye stretched lazily. “University life has only just begun. I want to experience it properly.”

After coming back to her senses, Bahuang Yao half-bowed and said, “Then I’ll take my leave first.”

“Go.” Chen Yu nodded.

“Okay. Goodbye.”

After seeing the girl’s back disappear, Chen Yu patted Duan Ye again. “You should go too. Go further away.”

“Are we going back to the dormitory on the same path?”

“Who’s going back with you? You go back yourself.”

“…Are you going to a nightclub?” Duan Ye suddenly reacted. He tilted his head and glared. “You’re not right?”

“Go to your f*cking nightclub. Are you going or not?” Chen Yu pulled out the long sword on his back.

“You f* king know how to bully me. So what if you’re a physical martial arts major?”

“Are you going or not?” Chen Yu waved his long sword.

“Yes! F*ck, I didn’t say I wasn’t going.” Duan Ye unhappily took a step forward. “But you’re going to a nightclub to drag me down. Your conscience will be unsettled for the rest of your life…”

“Scram, scram, scram.”

Watching Duan Ye leave, Chen Yu waited for a while more before sheathing his longsword and turning around to chase after the female dormitory.

Very soon, he caught up with Bahuang Yao.

The young girl walking in front heard footsteps and turned around in shock. “Chen Yu?”

“Don’t leave yet.”

“Ah? Is there anything else?”

Stopping the other party, Chen Yu stopped and stuck his head out. His eyes met with Bahuang Yao’s. “There’s something else.”

“Oh.” The young lady could not help but take a step back. “You… What’s wrong with you…”

“Do you still remember what you promised me?”

“I… What did I promise you…” The young lady panicked. Her heart was racing, and her cheeks were burning. Her mind started to run wild.

“You forgot?”

“I… I forgot…”

“You actually forgot?”

“I’m… I’m sorry…” Bahuang Yao was on the verge of tears.

“I…” Chen Yu’s eyes were bright. “Didn’t I ask you to help me check the school’s curriculum for the past few days? Where did it go?”

“…?”

“Say something.”

“Just… Just this?”

“What do you think?”

“…” After a moment of silence, the blush on the young girl’s face faded. She took out her broken phone, tapped on the screen, and unlocked it.

Chen Yu came over. “Why is the screen black?”

“It’s a bit slow. Give me a moment.”

“…Don’t wait. With your broken phone, you might have to wait for a whole day.”

“…”
