There was no place in the capital of the Federation that was not prosperous, in comparison to the West River Diaspora, this was a place where even the people walking along the streets looked significantly more imposing.

  Yan Yan was wearing a fairly decent, but by no means a good-looking set of clothes, and there were always people glancing at him as he walked down the street. In addition to having just arrived in the capital, he was a little uncomfortable during his first time at the spaceport. However, he didn’t worry about it anymore, because although the people here are well dressed and well fed, there were also many here that were all talk and no show.

  When he came to the door of the address that Zuo Luohuan gave him yesterday, Yan Yan took his card out and the waiter immediately took him to the private room. It was his first time entering this kind of high-end establishment so he couldn’t help but look around. When he saw a plate of snacks on the table next to him, he asked the waiter if it was free to eat.

  ”……Yes.”

  Jiang Hong came in and saw such a scene, where Yan Yan stood in front of the ornamental table stuffing snacks into his mouth, his other hand also stuffing them into his pockets, while the waiter next to him looked like he wanted to say something.

  ”Were you starving to death?” Jiang Hong said in disgust.

  Yan Yan took time out of his “busy schedule” to have a glance and found Zuo Luohuan wasn’t there, so he ignored him and continued to eat on his own.

  ”……” Jiang Hong said to the waiter, “Pack two bags for him, the largest size.”

  The waiter knew Jiang Hong and saw that he knew this person, so he was relieved and went to get the bags and pack them.

  Jiang Hong leaned back against the table, reaching out to pick and rummage through the snacks, but ultimately did not take one: “Later, the dishes upstairs are the good stuff. If you’re full now, what will you do later? Zuo Luohuan has more than enough money, you’d have to order a few more plates to make it worthwhile.”

  ”It’s none of your business.” Yan Yan rushed off as soon as he spoke.

  Jiang Hong shrugged, then accepted the two large bags from the waiter: “You head over first, we’re together, I’ll take him up later.”

  The waiter gratefully bowed down to Jiang Hong. That big man seemed odd, in case there was an accident, the reception would have to charge money.

  ”Stop eating, these two large bags are yours.” Jiang Hong handed it to Yan Yan, “Is West River Exiled Star so poor that you don’t have enough to eat or do you have a special physique?”

  He couldn’t imagine that the Federation still had issues like these nowadays, the local relief bureaus had a large amount of donated food to finish every day. How could someone from a legitimate planet not have enough food to eat?

  Yan Yan wiped his mouth, grabbed the two large bags in his hands, did not answer, and only asked: “Where are we eating?”

  Jiang Hong: “……” Damn, this stinking freshman really can’t get enough of salt and oil!

  ”Upstairs, Zuo Luohuan always likes to arrive early, she should already be waiting in the booth.” Jiang Hong walked ahead, and around the corner he glanced at Yan Yan behind him, “What’s it like to fight with Ji Yuezhi? Those few moves he used against you were definitely textbook quality.”

  Putting aside the fact that he hasn’t differentiated yet, every aspect of Ji Yuezhi was definitely “Top” quality. It was a no wonder that he’s on par with Zuo Luohuan, not just because of the Ji family backing him.

  ”He is very strong.” Yan Yan said in a subdued voice, “But I will definitely be able to win against Ji Yuezhi in the future.”

  When he said the latter half of that sentence, Jiang Hong in front of him happened to stop and open the door of the booth. Inside, Zuo Luohuan turned her head to look at them, and said in a faint voice: “You win against Ji Yuezhi? Maybe in your next life.”

  ”Why can’t I win?” Yan Yan looked down on Ji Yuezhi, he felt that the Wind Disciplinary Division was a group of people who only sought to look bright and shiny on the surface, “I will become stronger in the future.”

  Zuo Luohuan loosened the whiskey glass in her hand, her fingertips gently brushed over the body of the glass, and raised her gaze with a smile: “People who can only fight cannot win against Ji Yuezhi.”

  ”How come we can’t get away from talking about Ji Yuezhi even here?” Jiang Hong parked his butt down across the table, seeming to have forgotten that the topic was brought up by him in the first place, “I’m hungry, let them serve the dishes.”

  ”Sit down, order what you want to eat.” Zuo Luohuan pointed to the seat next to Jiang Hong and said to Yan Yan, “Today is just a friendly exchange between new and old students.”

  Yan Yan stared at Zuo Luohuan for a while before he sat down, “What do you want to know?”

  ”The West River Exiled Star.”

  ……

  It was Saturday today, and school wasn’t in session. Early in the morning the Ji family sent three cars to pick up Ji Yuezhi. When he came outside, there were already people waiting at the school entrance.

  ”Young master.” The leader of the group came forward and reminded, “Master is in the car.”

  Ji Yuezhi walked towards the middle car, and someone immediately came up next to him to open the back door and escorted him inside.

  ”Father.”

  Inside, there was a beautiful man, his eyes and eyebrows were hidden, just from looking at his appearance, anyone would believe that he was in his twenties. He was also dressed scrupulously and exquisitely, he appeared to have tidied his hair, not at all like a person who had worked all night.

  After Ji Yuezhi was inside, he stopped the work in his hands and his aura softened a little: “How was your week at school?”

  ”Nothing major happened.” After closing the car door, Ji Yuezhi leaned against the car window and said casually.

  Ji Xixiu swept a glance at his son: “I heard that Zuo Luohan is not going to skip this semester.”

  Ji Yuezhi’s drooping eyelashes trembled slightly, but his tone did not change: “Is that so? Probably because she doesn’t have enough points.”

  ”That’s also true, even if she is in the top ten and have a lot of points, she can’t withstand skipping classes for a year.” Ji Xixiu did not expose his son, but changed the subject, “It’s almost time for your coming-of-age celebration, what do you want as a gift?”

  Ji Yuezhi looked out of the car window and the roadscape that flew by in distortion, and only after a long time did he say, “…… faster differentiation.”

  ”No rush, your body is fine.” Ji Xixiu reached out and touched his son’s head, “Sooner or later, you will differentiate.”

  Few people knew that the only son of the Ji family was already differentiating, except that the differentiation had just sprouted and had been rigidly crushed. After a serious illness, the differentiation remained unmoved.

  When he arrived home, Ji Yuezhi clearly looked a little more relaxed than at school, and after his meal he went back to his room to rest.

  After taking off his cold, hard uniform, Ji Yuezhi lay on his side, wrapped himself in a thin blanket, and quietly browsed through the campus anonymous forums. Nine out of ten times, the titles he clicked into contained a certain person’s name. 

  If Zuo Luohuan was here, she would have found that a certain future alpha recognized by the First Military Academy, had beautiful and slender ankles exposed from the thin blanket. The skin was too delicate and fair to be associated with traditional alpha features.

  [Report!!! Today Zuo Luohuan and a freshman was spotted eating at the Aroma Treasure Pavilion!!! Attachment.jpg]

  When Ji Yuezhi came across this headline, his fingertips stopped, and his lips pursed into a straight line. It took a while before he clicked in to read it.

  [Fuck, isn’t this the freshman who was beaten by Ji Yuezhi in front of the school before? Zuo Luohuan wants to rope in Ji Yuezhi’s enemies?]

  [I think it’s possible that Zuo Luohuan has fallen in love with the new student, who looks a bit reckless, but is quite good-looking.]

  [AA love should not be allowed.]

  [What age are we living in? What’s wrong with AA or OO love?]

  The following threads were getting increasingly wild, ranging from speculations on Zuo Luohuan and the freshman’s romance, to claims on how Zuo Luohuan came back to school just for the freshman. Ji Yuezhi’s lips pursed tighter and tighter, and finally couldn’t resist making a statement with his own dummy account.

  [He isn’t her type.]

  [How do you know he isn’t Zuo Luohuan’s type? I think this freshman is not bad!]

  [He isn’t.]

  [Forget it, I’m not arguing anymore, it’s probably just another crazy Zuo fan.]

  …… 

  Ji Yuezhi closed the light brain, turned over and sat up, his bangs were a little messy, and his lips pursed straight. This was a sign that he was extremely unhappy.

  Zuo Luohuan didn’t like this type, he just knew, always knew.

  ”Yuezhi.” Ji Xixiu knocked on the door of his room outside, “Just now Zuo Luohan asked me for your number.”

  Immediately noises of brisk walking came from inside the room door, and the next second the door was opened. Ji Yuezhi looked at his father, “She …… asked for my number?”

  ”She said she wanted to personally thank you for the coming-of-age gift you gave her before.” Ji Xixiu frowned, “The two of you go to same school. How come you haven’t added each other’s numbers?”

  ”…… We haven’t.” Ji Yuezhi whispered, although they went to the same school, there was basically no overlap in their circle of friends. Except for being close to Jiang Hong, Zuo Luohuan always hung around by herself. Before going to the First Military Academy, she was already known far and wide in the capital as the “Truant King”.

  Ji Xixiu did not know what his child was thinking right now, but he never intervened, and only said: “Zuo Luohuan already has your number now. On the side, I asked about her about your coming of age celebration on the 28th, and she said she will come.”

  When Ji Xixiu left, Ji Yuezhi closed the door, looked at himself in the mirror, turned around and went to change into another set of clothes.

  …… 

  The three of them came out of the Aroma Treasure Pavilion and left. Zuo Luohuan neither went back to school nor went home, but went straight to the shopping mall.

  On the way, she originally intended to call Ji Yuezhi, but when she opened her light brain, she realized that she did not have the other party’s contact information. Zuo Luohuan asked her father for the number of the head of the Ji family, and then specially called just to ask for Ji Yuezhi’s number.

  After getting his number, Zuo Luohuan did not hurry to make a call. She walked into a high-end custom jewelry store in the mall, looked through the counter full of exquisite jewelry, and directly asked the manager: “Do you have neck locks?”

  The manager calmly replied, “Dear guest, do you mean…… that kind of neck lock? If you need one, you can come with us to the top floor for a tour.”

  ”Let’s go.”

  The top floor had more ambiguous lighting than the bright jewelry store below, and every part of the exhibition room was exquisitely designed with care. It looked more like a grand neck lock exposition hall, with neck locks of any material and form.

  The most dazzling one is the neck lock on the main stand that was entwined in canary yellow topaz with golden lace.

  The top floor had more ambiguous lighting than the bright jewelry store below, and every part of the exhibition room was exquisitely designed with care. It looked more like a grand neck lock exposition hall, with neck locks of any material and form.

  The most dazzling one is the neck lock on the main stand that was entwined in canary yellow topaz with golden lace. Once worn, the design revealed areas that should be covered, but tightly covered areas that didn’t need to be covered.

  ”Dear guest, the design of this neck lock inside the cabinet was designed by our master. It is very elegant and exquisite, very suitable for gifting it-……”

  Zuo Luohuan interrupted the manager: “What if I wanted custom made design?”

  The manager instantly caught on, all alphas were extremely domineering and possessiveness to a fault, but he still maintained a smile: “Certainly. We have a special design and production studio here, guests can fully customize their own design, but in the hands of a novice designer, the failure rate is relatively high, so the price tag may be a bit expensive.”

  ”Take me there.” Zuo Luohuan followed the manager and continued to head inside, before calling Ji Yuezhi.

  Leaving her video off, she simply made a voice call and got through: “Ji Yuezhi?”

  The other side took a long time to speak: “…… Do you need something?”

  ”I saw the coming of age gift you gave me.” Zuo Luohuan eyes scanned over the neck locks on both ends, and said carelessly, “I like it very much.”

  Ji Yuezhi, who had already changed his clothes in his room but ended up not receiving a video call, remembered the gift he had sent that time. His eyelashes trembled, but his tone remained icy as usual: “So?”

  ”So for your coming of age celebration, I should also send you an elaborate gift.” Zuo Luohuan walked into the design room. As if she had suddenly remembered something, she whispered with slight ambiguity, “Ji Yuezhi, were you aware that what you sent was a face lock used for role play? The kind that only lovers will send each other.”

  However, the party on the other end of the call remained silent, with only the sound of shallow breathing lingering.

  Zuo Luohuan purposefully flirted with slight intimacy, as if the two were very close: “Our little Yuezhi probably got deceived …… Nevertheless, I have received your intentions, and will take good care of it.”

  It was difficult for people who have always been gifted and intelligent to accept the fact that they had gotten deceived.

  As expected, the person on the other end seemed to be very unhappy and abruptly disconnected the call.

  Hearing the sound of the call being hung up on, Zuo Luohuan felt as if she had won against him, and was inexplicably in a better mood.

Yuezhi: I speculated your speculation.
