After school, I went to mail a letter to my father, and then I was pulled here by Luo Chengyu, temporarily forgetting about the matter of meeting Qian Xianyin

At noon, I went to the library to find Qian Xianyin. Later, the class bell rang, and I had to leave. Before leaving, I told Qian Xianyin that I would look for him after school.

Hmm. He seemed to let out a sigh of relief, raised his hand, and gently patted my shoulder. I turned and walked forward, continuing until I reached the entrance of the library, before looking back at him.

Xia, I walked in front of Jiang Xia, and my mood instantly improved. Her long hair cascaded over her shoulders, and in her deep purple eyes, the light from the crystal chandelier flowed. "What are you doing here? What a coincidence! Have you joined the Adventure Society?"

"Where are you going? I will take you there," Luo Chengyu glanced at me, seemingly confirming my gaze and expression, "This place is quite remote"

Throughout the journey, Luo Chengyu kept talking to me, his demeanor somewhat cautious, likely because he sensed that I was still preoccupied with what had just happened, after all, it was he who brought me here

I am not worried about you encountering danger; I am concerned that you might get lost. It is quite far from here to the residential area, and it takes a long time to walk there. " Luo Chengyu explained with a smile.

I jumped onto the back seat of Luo Chengyu's bicycle, and he rode away with me from the lonely vintage building, while Jiang Xia stood in place, watching us leave

Is everything really alright? Jiang Xia followed and stood beside Luo Chengyu, her deep purple eyes filled with a sorrowful expression. The Minister, she certainly did not mean it; in fact, she is a very good person.

"Wait!" Luo Chengyu chased after me. Besides Luo Chengyu, there was another person's footsteps. Without turning back, I could tell that the footsteps belonged to Jiang Xia.

When my gaze fell upon the rose, a voice filled with surprise came from my left front

This is not to deceive Luo Chengyu; I genuinely remembered that there is something I have not done

"Wait a moment!" Luo Chengyu ran in front of me, his eyes filled with concern, "I’m sorry, are you angry?"

Mixed-race? A girl sitting at the table shot me a cold glance, in her eyes, there was a familiar disdain and contempt. I calmly met her gaze and smiled at her friendly, "Yes, I am mixed-race."

I also do not wish to leave others with such a fragile impression, so if there is nothing else, I will certainly stay until the end and leave together with Luo Chengyu

But when I looked into her eyes, in her deep purple gaze, there was only a faint smile.

"Senior Yue, can mixed-blood individuals not join the club?" At this moment, Luo Chengyu spoke up and said, "I remember, there doesn't seem to be such a regulation."

He remained in place, saw me turn back, waved his hand at me, then turned the car around and disappeared into the night enveloped by the moonlight.

Indeed, this place is quite remote. Jiang Xia, who was standing beside me, spoke up. I instinctively turned to glance at her, and in that moment, I felt a slight stir in my heart. I couldn't tell if it was just my illusion, but at the instant I looked at Jiang Xia, it seemed that a subtle and indescribable expression flickered in the depths of her eyes.

"It's nothing, don't be fooled by my appearance, I am quite formidable." I waved my fist at him, smiling as I declined his kind offer, jokingly adding that I have been learning grappling techniques from my father since I was little

Do you know Senior Yue?" Luo Chengyu seemed to finally notice Jiang Xia's presence, turning to glance at her, "Aren't you in the same class as Xiaoyou? You are also a freshman, right?

Indeed. Jiang Xia was clearly very happy to see me; she took my hand, turned around, and introduced me to others, saying, "This is my friend, Huazi You"

I turned my gaze in the direction of the sound and saw Jiang Xia sitting there, looking at me in surprise. When she noticed that I had seen her, she raised her hand and waved at me.

I rushed directly downstairs, pushed open the big door, and walked out. The sky outside had completely darkened, and the moon had risen without my noticing.

"Well, I attended the same junior high school as the minister, but she is two grades ahead of me," Jiang Xia explained.

The second floor of the Adventure Society features a spacious hall, in the center of which hangs a crystal chandelier, casting a soft halo of light. At the heart of the illumination rests a vintage European long table, with a perfectly blooming rose placed in the center.

So it is like this, you all should go back quickly, I really have something to attend to. I also suddenly remembered that matter when I saw Jiang Xia.

Well then, I will trouble you! Since Jiang Xia has said so, I feel embarrassed to refuse Luo Chengyu's kindness any longer. Moreover, what they said makes a lot of sense. Humans and the demon race are different; the demon race has the ability to fly with the wind. For this distance, it would take the demon race even less than half the time it would take humans.

I turned back to Jiang Xia and flashed a brilliant smile, then turned to Yue Si and said goodbye, and after waving to Luo Chengyu, I quickly turned and walked down the stairs.

"In fact, I am not that fragile." In front of the path leading to the library, I jumped down from the back seat of the bicycle. Luo Chengyu's long legs supported him on the ground, and the moonlight spread over him, casting a faint glow in his eyes.

I did not intend to join the exploration society. I suddenly remembered that I still have something very important to do. I interrupted Yue Si's words; many times, knowing that what the other party is about to say will not be pleasant, I would rather not let those words be spoken. I just came by on my way, and now that I have seen, I will take my leave, Xia.

I muttered to myself, Hanako, you truly are one to be suspicious and paranoid

Red roses

If I am not busy afterwards, I think I should stay, after all, having grown up this much, the gaze of Yue Si and the words left unspoken have completely failed to provoke me

"Why should I be angry?" I looked at Luo Chengyu in confusion, "Oh, I really have something to do. I kept feeling like there was something I hadn't done, and now I remember. Don't overthink it, I'm not angry. I'm not that fragile."

"That is indeed the case." The beautiful senior named Yue Si hesitated for a moment, and finally nodded, saying, "However..."

You need not worry about these things, truly. Taking me to the adventure club actually makes me quite happy. I said with a smile, "Alright, you should head back now, as I have some matters to attend to at the library."
