Outwardly, Lin Jiayi seemed composed as usual. But in reality, she became more and more curious about Lu Yao.Lu Yao could face Chu Minghui and Ma Xiaolin with equanimity. He also remained calm whenever he talked to her. He looked as if nothing could faze him.Chu Minghui made trouble for him again and again. After this exam, he even threatened to let Lu Yao get out of Shuangta City. But in the end, it was Lu Yao who won the bet. And Chu Minghui got a real walloping.Chu Minghui didn't come to school recently perhaps because he wanted to lie low for a few days. Lu Yao could have taken this opportunity to make a show of himself before other students. But he didn't do that. Instead, he just let it go at that and he even didn't blame Ma Xiaolin and his friends for what they had done.What was more, nowadays, nobody except for Lu Yao could cheerfully admit that he had never celebrated his birthday before!How come t

After leaving the house, they walked slowly towards Wang Ping's Aodi A6. Many tenants who lived in the slums had built a lot of storage sheds in the alleys because their rooms were small. Therefore, the alleys seemed to be rather narrow. Wang Ping had to park his car at a relatively spacious place at the mouth of an alley."Lu Yao, I hope you can think carefully about my suggestion. I want to not only pay for your education but also help your godfather. Before long, you will go to a university in the big city. You won't have to worry about him if he works in our martial arts school, will you?" Wang Ping was still trying to persuade Lu Yao."OK, I will." Lu Yao said plainly, "Brother Wang, thank you for coming to celebrate my godfather's birthday today. And you even gave him costly ginseng and Lingzhi Mushrooms. How can I ever repay you for your generosity?" Lu Yao said."Our boss expects no return. As long as you study hard and serve the

After returning home in the evening, Lu Yao told Lu Yiqian that he had promised Wang Ping to move.Lu Yiqian didn't ask Lu Yao why he changed his mind. Instead, he just asked, "When are you going to move?""This weekend. Godfather, is there anything you want to take with you? Shall I pack them up for you?""I don't wanna take anything with me. In this house, only your study materials are our possessions!" Lu Yiqian said jokingly.It was true that nothing in this house should be taken away except some books of Lu Yao and their clothes.It was just past 9:00 p.m. when Lu Yao finished all the prearranged tasks. After saying goodbye to Lu Yiqian, Lu Yao went out to the nearby grocery store to buy the herbs he would need to refine Spirit Liquids.Before leaving, he carefully took off his school uniform which had turned whitish from much washing. And then he put on the old cloth gown he used to wear when

Fortunately, it was late, and there was no one nearby. Except for a few frightened water birds flying out of the reed marshes, nothing happened.The purifying of the body of this time was very different from the first time.When he purified the body for the first time, Lu Yao only felt every inch of his skin hurt as if he had been stung by a needle. But this time, except for the parts of his body that were outside the spring water, all his skin fell off as if a snake was going through the ecdysis.The spring water was very hot. If it had to be defined by a temperature, Lu Yao felt that the water temperature should be above one hundred degrees Celsius at this time. And he had a feeling that he was about to be "cooked".The skin on his body fell down layer after layer, and all the skin that fell was floating on the surface of the water. With the falling off of the old skin, Lu Yao felt a burning pain when the new skin grew out

Although he was surprised, Lu Yao still took Han Dong and sat on the sofa opposite Lin Yuandao."Mr. Yang called me yesterday. Unfortunately, Jiayi and I went out to run some errands. I'm really sorry that you have to come again today." After sitting down, Lin Yuandao asked Aunt Qiu to give them two cups of tea and said politely."It's ok. We are not only classmates! Lin Jiayi and I are also desk mates. Some time ago, she even helped me several times." Lu Yao said politely."Secretary Lin, what's wrong with Lin Jiayi? Is it serious?" Since Han Dong entered the door, he saw that Secretary Lin's facial expression was bad. Thus, he didn't say a word. At this time, seeing Secretary Lin greeted them warmly, Han Dong also let go a lot and asked with a smile."Han Dong, you don't have to be so polite. Just like Lu Yao, call me Uncle Lin." Hearing Han Dong asked about Lin Jiayi's illness, Lin Yuandao said, "In fact, it is not a seri
