Xia Che was in a particularly good mood at this moment.

Since transmigrating into this body, Xia Che has felt that he has always been somewhat cautious, worried that his transmigrated identity would be discovered by those close to the original body. Therefore, he deliberately maintains some of the original body's habits.

For example, skipping classes, or subconsciously imitating the way the original person handled things when encountering trouble.

Furthermore, when facing the female protagonists, Xia Che always treated them as NPCs to complete tasks, and rarely had any contact with them before entering the plot.

Xia Che knew that once he returned to the real world, no matter how good his relationship with the female leads was after completing the mission, it would all be wiped clean.

—We're not even in the same world anymore, so what's the point of having a good relationship?

But now, things are different.

With Su Miaorou's guidance, Xia Che understood the key point.

Where I am, there is reality.

Everyone I encounter in the comic book world is real. They are not lifeless virtual data like NPCs in a game, but living, breathing people in the world.

My previous idea of ​​treating all of this as a game was a bit too arrogant.

"As the saying goes, having an elder in the family is like having a treasure... Master really helped a lot this time."

Xia Che looked around warily. They were still within the territory of Lotus Peak, and he wasn't sure if this deity actually had the ability to hear everything. Therefore, he didn't dare to complain too loudly.

Fortunately, no matter how extraordinary Su Miaorou was, she still had her limits. However, a terrestrial immortal is not a true immortal, so she didn't hear Xia Che's sneaky complaints, nor did she see a white dress standing in front of her in the blink of an eye.

But Su Miaorou didn't come; instead, others did.

"Young man! Wait a minute!"

Xing Zhicheng, panting heavily, came running after them.

Zhuo Lu followed closely behind. Although she was also running, her running posture looked much more graceful than Xing Zhicheng's, with her two balls swaying back and forth.

Seeing that he had been called, Xia Che stopped and looked over for a while, after all, it was indeed rare to see someone dribbling past another player with the ball.

"What's wrong?"

Only when Xing Zhicheng came close did Xia Che reluctantly turn his gaze away from Zhuo Lu and ask.

Judging from his clothes and the entourage of followers, Xing Zhicheng was undoubtedly a wealthy man. However, for some reason, Xia Che always felt a sense of unease about him, as if his sixth sense was constantly telling him to stay away from this person.

"Young man, are you Master Su's disciple?"

Xing Zhicheng, who had always given people a ruthless and vicious impression, became as obedient as a green recruit in front of this young man after learning Xia Che's identity.

Zhuo Lu's eyes widened. In her mind, Xing Zhicheng was reliable, steady, and deep-seated. He had a thunderous heart but a calm face, and every move he made exuded the demeanor of a mature man.

But what about now?

They bowed and scraped, afraid that the other party might show the slightest impatience, and dared not even raise their voices too loudly.

His behavior was just like a lackey...

Even if the other party is Master Su's disciple, is this really necessary?

"Yes, what's wrong?"

Xia Che frowned slightly and subconsciously took a step back.

He still felt he should listen to his intuition; people who didn't make a good first impression were likely to have serious problems.

"What's your name?"

Xing Zhicheng took another step forward. He noticed Xia Che's wariness towards him, but he didn't mind at all.

As a disciple of Master Su, it's normal to be wary.

Moreover, judging from Master Su's words, he intends to let his disciple enter the world.

If we can build a good relationship with him, we'll definitely make a good impression on Master Su in the future...

Xing Zhicheng's mind began to stir.

"Young man, are you heading down the mountain? Where are you planning to go?"

Seeing that Xia Che didn't speak, Xing Zhicheng continued, "Huizhou? Or Zhejiang? Jiangzhou?"

"With Master Su here, young brother, just ask if you need anything, and I'll help you. I guarantee a luxury car and beautiful women will accompany you. If you need, young brother, you can choose from all skin colors in the world! I love making friends, especially outstanding friends like you who are the cream of the crop."

Xing Zhicheng narrowed his eyes and noticed Xia Che raising an eyebrow with interest. He was overjoyed, feeling that his plan was about to succeed.

Even if they are Master Su's disciples, don't forget that they live in seclusion.

The bustling city below the mountain is a deadly poison that attracts hermits. Master Su may be more mature, but the boy in front of him is definitely naive.

Xing Zhicheng understood all too well what young people of this age were thinking. Coincidentally, he could provide them with what they wanted without any effort.

With the Xing family around, what difference does it make if he indulges in debauchery for months or even years?

It's nothing more than treating him like an ancestor for a while. During this period, the Xing family won't lose anything, because Su Miaorou is standing behind this kid. The Xing family can use Su Miaorou's name to do things that are beneficial to the Xing family.

There are so many things that can be done in this situation. For example, if anyone dares to be so blind and disapproves of the Xing family's actions and intends to take action, the Xing family can simply throw Su Miaorou's apprentice out, treating it as just an accident, and rescue her later.

—As long as Master Su's disciple is in their hands, the Xing family has plenty of ways to use Su Miaorou as a trump card to suppress all the other families of the same level as the Xing family.

This is a sure-fire deal; the Xing family only needs to pay some money to make it happen. For a large and well-established family, this cost is negligible.

"I don't believe you can resist this temptation..."

The thought had barely formed in his mind when Xing Zhicheng saw Xia Che turn around abruptly, wave his hand casually, and move with an air of nonchalance, showing no sign of lingering.

"No need. We've only met by chance, and I don't think we'll have the chance to meet again. I have something to do, so I'll be going now."

Xia Che then quickened his pace and disappeared from Xing Zhicheng's sight in no time.

Although his meridians were sealed, the marks left by his years of training and his walking speed were quite fast in the eyes of ordinary people. Xing Zhicheng was stunned for only a moment when he saw that he had been rejected, and then he could no longer see Xia Che's back.

—The fact that they left so quickly clearly shows that they were not interested in the olive branch extended by Xing Zhicheng at all.

"Young man! Are you really not going to reconsider?"

Xing Zhicheng was still unwilling to give up. Erkang reached out to try and persuade him to stay. Such a good opportunity was too good to miss and he would regret it for the rest of his life.

"I'm busy."

A soft voice drifted through the forest; though faint, it was clear enough to reach the ears.

It's clear that this person is genuinely uninterested in the conditions offered by Xing Zhicheng.

I have absolutely no interest in it.

Of course.

I have no sexual interest either.
