Chapter 306: Chapter 306
Ah, this...! ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ 𝔫𝔬𝔳𝔢𝔩~𝔣𝔦𝔯𝔢~𝔫𝔢𝔱
After Devouring, three Attributes increase! The value of this petal is much higher than expected! It seems taking a girl around campus is something to be happy about, an obligation I cannot shirk. This is an excellent, ancient traditional quality of Luo City, and as a resident of Luo City, I must carry it through to the end. It’s definitely not because I’m swayed by money.
With these thoughts, Su Yan looked up at An Shihua, deciding to be selfless and use his private time to show her around Jing University’s campus.
An Shihua, who was in front of him, saw that he remained silent for a long time, merely looking up at her. She thought he was unmoved by her offer.
Without another word, she reached into her bosom again.
Skillfully, she pulled out another petal identical to the first and stuffed it into Su Yan’s hand.
Then she smiled and said, "Are you free now?"
"Ah, this... How can I accept this!" Su Yan verbally declined, but his hand was already clasped tightly shut.
Taking the petal back from his hand would be harder than ascending to the heavens.
Seeing this, An Shihua couldn’t help but sneer to herself; They say the world is a whore, showing her beauty only to the wealthy... Men are the same, I suppose...
"Student Shi Hua, let me show you a magic trick," Su Yan said, a beaming smile on his face.
Ever since he had received two petals from An Shihua, he had become considerably more enthusiastic towards her. A very pragmatic man.
"Perform it. I’m watching," An Shihua replied coolly.
At the same time, a hint of anticipation flickered in her eyes, curious about what Su Yan could come up with.
Seeing that An Shihua’s attention was now fully on him, Su Yan extended his hand, which held the two petals, towards her. Then he opened his palm and said, "Do you see these two petals in my hand?"
"Yes, I see them. And then?" An Shihua said, her beautiful eyes filled with intrigue.
Her delicate, pretty face carried a hint of puzzlement; she clearly couldn’t guess what magic trick Su Yan intended to perform for her.
"Student Shi Hua, watch closely now," Su Yan said as he closed his hand, then announced, "The trick I’m about to perform is the Petal Vanishing Technique."
As soon as he finished speaking, Su Yan’s body suddenly twitched, his expression utterly disinterested.
Then he opened his hand again, revealing an empty palm, and said, "Look, the petals are gone."
"Huh? Where did you hide the petals?" Looking at Su Yan’s empty palm before her, An Shihua was quite surprised, finding it incredible.
She had focused on his hand the entire time, her Five Senses Perception pushed to its limits, trying to see if he would use any abilities like HP or spiritual power.
However, Su Yan hadn’t used any such abilities.
Just a simple opening and closing of his hand, and the two petals had disappeared, as if they had never existed.
Is it Creature skills? The thought flashed through An Shihua’s mind; it seemed the only possibility.
But then she reconsidered. Su Yan had just started university. At best, he was seventeen or eighteen, just like her. Where could he have gotten so many Creature skills?
During the university entrance exams, he had displayed three or four Creature skills at once, which was already astonishing.
To say that he had acquired new Creature skills after just one summer break was, frankly, a joke. It was simply impossible.
Unable to figure it out and feeling extremely curious, An Shihua finally had no choice but to ask Su Yan directly, "How did you do that?"
"Secret," Su Yan said, giving An Shihua a mischievous smile.
He would never tell An Shihua that he had an ability to Devour everything. Unless... one day An Shihua became an object of his Devour, then maybe, just maybe, he would break his rule and tell her this secret.
Soon after, Su Yan continued, "It’s almost one o’clock. I’ll take you to the cafeteria for lunch first."
Without waiting for An Shihua’s agreement, he immediately headed towards Jing University’s cafeteria.
Because he was really, really hungry. He had been busy all morning without even a sip of water. He felt that if he didn’t replenish his energy soon, he might just drop dead from hunger at any moment.
Su Yan, who was flush with cash, immediately ordered a pricey mythical beast meat meal set for himself.
Many passing girls were dazzled by the sight. They wanted to approach him, flirt a little, and strike up a conversation.
However, upon seeing An Shihua sitting opposite him, they dismissed the idea. Instead, they had only one thought: That girl is too beautiful; I can’t compare. I’ll disturb them no more.
As Su Yan ate his Beast Meat, he looked at An Shihua, who only had a small cup of beast milk in front of her, and asked, "Student Shi Hua, are you really going to get full from just this tiny cup of beast milk?"
"I’m on a diet," An Shihua replied without hesitation.
Then, her cool, beautiful eyes met Su Yan’s. She said calmly, "Su Yan, I have some questions I can’t figure out and want to ask you."
"Ask away. As long as I know the answer, I’ll do my best to tell you." ’One who accepts gifts is bound to be obliging,’ Su Yan thought. He had just accepted two priceless petals from her; he definitely had to treat her better now. Otherwise, it would be rather unjustifiable.
Seeing Su Yan agree so readily, An Shihua didn’t hold back and directly voiced her questions.
"Su Yan, you really are a genius—more so than any creature I’ve ever seen."
