Chapter 9, Deceptive Privacy
Li's martial prowess is undoubtedly the best in Dormitory 303, even without utilizing the ability of observing the wind.
"You see, if you like her, you can just say it," Li Yongsheng said sincerely, unaware of the situation behind him as he faced away from Qi Yongxin. "You are right, she is indeed a tomboy, but... she also has her charming qualities."
Upon seeing Li Yongsheng with a stern expression taking a step forward, the young man immediately turned and ran, shouting as he fled, "Anyway, she thinks the two of us are from the ugly class... Do you really have to be like this?"
He looked this fellow up and down, then finally frowned and asked, "You tell me honestly... how did you find out about this?"
So it is like this... Li Yongsheng's eyes turned slightly, as if he was contemplating some idea
He flashed a grin, revealing a sinister smile, "Then don't blame me for adding a little something to your weight loss method... I forgot to tell you, this method is inherently very difficult to endure"
He is Xiao Xianhou from Class Chen, my roommate. Li Yongsheng did not hesitate to betray his brother, and he did so with a face full of righteousness. He really likes Senior Sister you!
He was stunned for a while before slowly uttering two words, "What the hell!"
Xiao Xianhou certainly felt it, so he hurriedly took two steps back, shouting loudly, "Hey, hey, she is actually very happy, she just hopes that you have a bit of courage, like a man, to go directly to her... If next time it is still me who approaches her, she will think I am lying, saying it will make me look very bad"
Ah, why didn't you say so earlier? Xiao Xianhou ran out for more than ten zhang, suddenly stopped, and turned around with a smile.
Thus, he pointed this out very directly: it is not that I am not giving you face, but rather that the information you obtained is substandard
However, in his heart, he had long cursed that scoundrel who ran away to the point of near death—I've been at the book pavilion for three months, yet I have never seen this manly woman, and just today, when you brought the materials, that person came to borrow books
In the next moment, he was astonished to discover that at the corner of the nearby book pavilion, a tall girl slowly walked out. She did not speak, but simply walked over step by step
However, even so, he still has to do his utmost to undermine his opponent—better to die with a friend than to let a rival live
She is not considered very beautiful, one can only say she is decent-looking, and her physique is also robust. She has been at this seminary for over a year, and there has not been a single boy who has shown interest in her.
Li Yongsheng smacked his lips, laughing with ill intentions while shaking his head in a seemingly regretful manner. "How difficult must a weight loss method with added ingredients be? Tsk tsk... Just thinking about it makes me feel a bit sympathetic towards you. However, perhaps you are very strong and can endure it. Who can say for sure?"
Xiao Xianhou was taken aback for a moment, then turned and ran away at an even more astonishing speed than before. As he ran, he shouted at the top of his lungs, "Li Yongsheng, if you have the guts, don't go back to the dormitory after class!"
"Not much of a waste?" Li Yongsheng squinted his eyes, "So it was still a waste?"
In other words, everyone is a fellow practitioner, belonging to the same level, and they are also seniors and juniors of this institution. If an unrelated outsider wishes to obtain specific information about a fellow practitioner, ten silver dollars may not be sufficient.
This young man, indeed, has no limits; he does not hesitate to betray his classmates at all
Zai Yongxin smacked her lips and stepped towards the library, feeling heavy in her heart
However, Li Yongsheng did not intend to reason with him, "I never said I was only inquiring about these things. Have you considered... ordinary information, is it worth ten silver dollars?"
Loud noise is strictly prohibited in the library. As an inspector, he has the responsibility to maintain order; how could he knowingly violate this rule?
"Don't run!" Li Yongsheng shouted. He was currently on duty at the library and could not leave his post, so he could only shout back, "If you have the guts, don't go back to the dormitory after school!"
Oh, that's just perfect," Qi Yongxin nodded and couldn't help but ask again, "The one who just ran away... is he from the ugly class?"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Xianhou choked and began to shout loudly, "Eternal life, such details, unless they are of certain relevance..."
I am a handsome young man with a graceful demeanor, and I have always been quick in my dealings," replied the proud Xiao Xianhou.
"Eh?" Li Yongsheng looked at him running away in astonishment, unable to help but shake his head, "How strange... Qi senior?"
As for the detailed process of her cultivation—who would share this with you without a certain level of intimacy
With these details, he can deduce the background of this person; however, without any information at present, how can he make a judgment
You, you, you... damn it," Xiao Xianhou's face twitched twice. He wanted to turn and run, but earlier today, he had already experienced the strength of Neishe Sheng—he couldn't win in a fight, nor could he escape.
It seems somewhat misleading, " Li Yongsheng replied casually while flipping through the three pages of paper
However, he ultimately did not dare to approach too closely, stopping at a distance of three or four zhang, smiling with a squint, "The key is that this method is effective, isn't it? You see, in less than a day, I have helped you understand it."
Xiao Xianhou completely disregarded his reasoning, shaking his head vigorously. "Yongsheng, what you are saying is simply unreasonable. The information about my cultivation is still from the female students of the Boling Academy of Cultivation... Can outsiders buy such information for ten silver dollars?"
As he turned around, he suddenly saw Qi Yongxin behind him, and was momentarily taken aback
Although he was pulled out, Xiao Xianhou still stated with righteous indignation: The information I have gathered is comprehensive enough and has exceeded the requirements. If you don't believe me, feel free to ask anyone whether it meets the five essential points of intelligence
Do not be deceived by his stout appearance; he is quite fast when he runs
Li Yongsheng did not intend to blame him, but he was not particularly satisfied with the result, although the young star performed quite well.
Senior Qi's complexion was slightly pale, and her body was trembling slightly. Upon seeing him greet her, she calmed down a bit, saying, "I came to the library to borrow a book. Are you... also here to borrow a book? What a coincidence."
At the very least, is it not quite normal to first discuss matters related to cultivation—where an external practitioner seeks guidance from an internal practitioner?
They had breakfast in the morning, and it is still not time for dinner. The young man has already figured out Qi Yongxin's situation and has written a full three pages, which he brought to the library to hand over to the administrator
Hmm? Li Yongsheng raised his eyebrows, and that malicious smile instantly froze on his face. This statement sounded as if something was amiss somewhere.
He spoke well, this information is indeed very detailed. Qi Yongxin's ancestry spans three generations, including her mother's three generations, all of which have been thoroughly investigated. There is nothing remarkable about the family background; the entire family consists of ordinary people. It is only her mother's brother-in-law who works as a repairman in the Agricultural Department of Qihuan City.
His statement cannot be considered incorrect; the regulation and revision are the cornerstone of government rule. The current students are under provisional regulation, and their numbers are exceedingly scarce. The confidentiality of each student's information is quite high and cannot be disclosed casually
However, there is no detailed account of Qi Yongxin's cultivation process on this matter, which is what he values the most
So soon?" Li Yongsheng stared in astonishment at the figure of Xiao Xianhou before him
"Go away, go away, this is the library," Li Yongsheng quickly pulled him out.
Although one cannot see his movements and is obscured by clothing, anyone can sense that his body has naturally tensed up, like a bowstring drawn tight, ready to unleash at any moment
I am the inspector of the Book Pavilion, receiving volunteer subsidies," Li Yongsheng replied with a smile, revealing a mouthful of white teeth
You rascal..." Li Yongsheng was truly both angry and amused, "I knew it, I should have just taken ten silver dollars from you back then. Forget it, how else did you manage to waste my time?"
In the next moment, he frowned slightly and cleared his throat, "However, I find that delicate girl more pleasing to the eye. You should go and ask that woman Qi Yongxin... is there perhaps an ulterior motive?"
Well... don't have any misguided thoughts, she does not wish for you to seek her out," Xiao Xianhou keenly noticed the change in the other party's energy, "She has already stated that her focus should be on her studies. If you truly like her, then the right course of action is to concentrate on your cultivation.
The young man was immediately taken aback upon hearing this, his eyes wide open and mouth agape, displaying a look of astonishment as if he had never seen this person before
Her uncle cannot allow her to be promoted to this seminary, so it can be said that Qi Yongxin actually entered on her own merit
This... Xiao Xianhou smiled awkwardly, then gritted his teeth and said, "I say you have had a crush on her for a long time. As your friend, I cannot bear to see you suffer from unrequited love... Damn it, if you have the guts, don't pursue her!"
I have made it very clear, "Xiao Xianhou is a bit anxious, "Let me tell you, I earn ten silver dollars a day, you cannot be jealous, nor can you break the agreement... otherwise, there will be no friends left.
At this moment, discussing anything else is pointless. He forced a smile and said, "This nickname 'manly woman'... it's the first time I've heard it. Clearly, it was you who gave it to her, yet you still say she might not like men"
If Li Yongsheng were truly a seventeen-year-old boy, he might have been deceived by these words, but he is not.
"How could you ... ..." Xiao Xianhou was left dumbfounded, can we not joke like this?
"Eternal life, you are truly skilled," Xiao Xianhou said with a frown, clasping his hands in a gesture of respect. He certainly did not wish for his weight loss journey to become a tool for the other party's venting frustrations. With a sheepish expression, he continued, "I really cannot find out any information; she has already warned me."
He had a certain intuition that when Li Yongsheng spoke such contradictory words at this moment, it was highly likely that he sensed something unusual behind him. Although this kind of thing sounded very improbable, it was precisely how he felt
Li Yongsheng sensed a faint killing intent behind him, but he simply pretended not to know, grinning and saying, "Nonsense, you only say that because your weight... is the only thing that can keep her down."
"I hardly mistreated you, okay?" Xiao Xianhou exclaimed, his eyes wide open, looking very aggrieved
He looked around and found no one nearby, then lowered his voice to speak, "Hey, hey, just because I am quick doesn't mean I am not putting in my best effort, understand"
Focusing on studies is merely a pretext; the other party neither rejected nor showed any signs of distance, which indicates a lack of aversion to mutual contact
How could Li Yongsheng allow him to be so unreasonable? "I said it does not meet the standards, so it does not meet the standards. If you continue to cut corners like this..."
