Chapter 321: The Hao Ren You Didn’t Know…

Translator: Noodletown Translated Editor: Noodletown Translated

Hao Ren headed toward the East Ocean University on Little White’s back at high speed. Little White was no longer the same as before, and it could go as fast as a Nascent Soul Realm cultivator now that it had a set of flight dharma treasures.

It arrived above the East Ocean University in just the blink of an eye.

Hao Ren found a quiet place to land and put Little White into the necklace. Then, he quickly headed towards the Hongji Square which was located outside the school.

He called Zhao Jiayi and asked the room number. Then, he hurried into the KTV and found their room.

Xie Yujia and Ma Lina were the only two girls in the room, and there were seven guys. Currently, Zhao Jiayi was focused on singing a love song when Hao Ren entered.

“Damn! How come you are so late! We are almost done!” Zhou Liren shouted when Hao Ren walked in.

“I had something to do… and just got back…” Hao Ren squeezed over to Xie Yujia since she saved half a seat for him, and he sat down beside Xie Yujia, shoulder to shoulder.

Hao Ren did try his best to rush back for Huang Jianfeng’s birthday. Although the issue with East Ocean Dragon Clan was giving him a headache, Hao Ren couldn’t put his friends behind. The guys from the university had always been his bros, and he didn’t want to let them down.

“Here, here, here, sing a song!” Zhao Jiayi stuffed the microphone into Hao Ren’s hand. There was still half a song left.

In fact, they were all tired of taking turns to sing before Hao Ren got there. They knew that Hao Ren sucked at singing and it would be a suitable punishment to embarrass him since he was so late.

Hao Ren just got back on Little White’s back, and he could still feel the cold from the high altitude. He had no idea what to do when a microphone was stuffed into his hand.

They were all good friends, but Hao Ren still felt a bit awkward singing in front of a bunch of guys.

“Go ahead! It’s not like you haven’t sung for us before!” Cao Ronghua nudged Hao Ren.

Zhao Jiayi liked to sing the most in their dorm, and he had always dragged the guys to KTVs. However, Hao Ren usually sat on the side and listened; he would hum from time to time but never actually sang.

“Eh-hem!” Hao Ren cleared his throat, turned to Xie Yujia, and laughed in embarrassment as he brought the microphone up to his mouth. After taking a deep breath, he started to sing in harmony with the music, “Showing me the change of seasons…”

Everyone was stunned as soon as Hao Ren opened his mouth.

Especially Zhao Jiayi, who used to claim himself as a real singer; he couldn’t believe his ears.

“Is it really…Hao Ren singing?”

Ma Lina, who sat beside Xie Yujia, was also stupefied.

She had no idea that Hao Ren was such a great singer with such a beautiful voice!

The right tone and the lovely voice were not inferior to those talented celebrities!

Hao Ren immediately stopped when he noticed their weird expressions. He asked, “What’s the matter?”

Due to the sudden pause, they were sure that the machine wasn’t accidentally playing with the original song.

“Damn! You are such a good singer, and you have been hiding it from us all this time!” Zhou Liren pushed from the back and strangled Hao Ren’s neck.

Zhao Jiayi was also confused. He had been busy training with the basketball team and rarely had chances to go karaoke. He specifically picked two songs for today, and he felt pretty satisfied with his performance. However, he didn’t expect that Hao Ren would completely crush him.

“This guy…” Zhao Jiayi looked at Hao Ren and wondered if he practiced singing daily after he started dating Xie Yujia.

Hao Ren also didn’t realize that his cultivation not only changed his aura but also made his voice clearer and brighter. He was just copying the artists from his memory, but to his surprise, he astonished all of them.

“Keep going! Keep going!” Xie Yujia encouraged him to keep singing.

“Sing! Sing! Sing!” Huang Jianfeng and the other guys chimed in.

Hao Ren blushed out of embarrassment. He cleared his throat and followed the lyrics on the screen, “The black in front of my eyes is not…”

Huang Jianfeng and the other guys were listening to Hao Ren carefully, astonished. They suddenly realized how handsome and stylish Hao Ren appeared to be under the spotlight.

How come they had never realized that such a handsome guy had been hanging out with them all along!

Ma Lina nudged Xie Yujia’s waist with her hand, hinting at the good eyes her friend had. From her perspective, Xie Yujia had gotten herself a boyfriend that would make other girls jealous.

In fact, upon a closer look, Hao Ren would be quite attractive with a more thoughtful outfit and a new hairstyle.

Hao Ren put the microphone down after the song, but the guys urged him to keep on singing. Hao Ren didn’t want to sing anything; it was ok when it was only him and Xie Yujia in the room like last time, but he really wasn’t used to singing in front of a group of people.

The next song was already up, and Zhao Jiayi had to take over microphone since Hao Ren was reluctant to keep going. But compared to Hao Ren, Zhao Jiayi sounded much worse although he was outstanding in the group.

“Hey! I had no idea that you are so good. We can go karaoke together in the future!” Ma Lina leaned across Xie Yujia and knocked Hao Ren with her fist.

“Ok…” Hao Ren looked down and shrugged.

Xie Yujia smiled sweetly between the two of them.

Hao Ren really looked like a singing prince when he had the microphone in his hand. If he were at a school event singing a song on the stage, a lot of girls would fall for him!

Ma Lina had always thought that Hao Ren was too ordinary to be with Xie Yujia. Now, she finally changed her point of view and realized that Xie Yujia was the lucky one. It turned out that guys could change up a lot as well!

“You only sang half a song, and you were so late. Three cups as a punishment!” Huang Jianfeng carried the cups of liquor to Hao Ren when his own face was slightly flushed.

They were all in a good mood today, so they all had a few drinks. But it was responsible of them for not making the two girls drink. Hao Ren knew that he was guilty, so he belted all three cups of drinks without rejecting.

“Watch out…” Xie Yujia reminded him from the side.

Ma Lina had a strange feeling when she saw this. “Xie Yujia must really love Hao Ren to care about him this much. What trick did Hao Ren use on her to charm her like this? She usually was immune to guys…” she thought.

Hao Ren felt the warmth in his stomach after those three cups of liquor. However, such little alcohol was not a problem for him at all. Hao Ren could easily push the alcohol out of his body through his fingertips with the Light Splitting Sword Shadow Scroll.

The atmosphere of the room picked up after Hao Ren got in.

Hao Ren drank one cup after another, yet he didn’t feel any discomfort. The guys were all surprised at how Hao Ren’s voice had gotten so much better, and now his tolerance for alcohol increased drastically as well.

After three rounds, Hao Ren had gotten everyone who tried to make him drunk out of it. They all stopped toasting when they saw Hao Ren was still able to drink more, although his face was slightly red.

“Have less.” Although Xie Yujia knew that Hao Ren wouldn’t get drunk, she still worried about him and pushed his cup down.

Luckily, Zhao Jiayi and the other guys couldn’t have anymore. Otherwise, they sure wouldn’t be ok with what this ‘sister-in-law’ of theirs just did.

Since the guys weren’t even able to stand still, Ma Lina picked up the microphone, chose a few songs, and started singing. She was not as pretty as Xie Yujia, but she was a good singer.

The room finally started to sound fun again.

Hao Ren deeply exhaled on the couch, evaporating the alcohol from his stomach.

Xie Yujia sneaked a peek at him and asked quietly, “Is there something bothering you?”

“Hehe, nothing.” Hao Ren smiled with his head down.

Xie Yujia looked at him, worried. “I felt like something is on your mind the second you entered the room.”

“Nothing…” Hao Ren removed the slim hand Xie Yujia put on his shoulder softly.

The more Hao Ren said he was ok, the more Xie Yujia believed that he had a lot of things on his mind.

“How about… we go for a walk?” Xie Yujia gritted her teeth and asked lightly.

After a few seconds of silence, Hao Ren nodded and said, “Ok, let’s go get some fresh air.”

Zhao Jiayi and the other guys were lying randomly in the room; they were almost falling asleep on the couch.

“Ma Lina, I’m taking a walk outside with Hao Ren. Keep an eye on them!” Xie Yujia stood up and said to Ma Lina.

Ma Lina threw Hao Ren and Xie Yujia a suspicious look and said, “Ok, go ahead! I’ll be here!”

The KTV rule stated that the customers were not allowed to sleep in there, and at least one person needed to be awake.

“Um!” Xie Yujia walked out of the room holding Hao Ren’s hand.

The air in the corridor was fresher than the air in the room.

Xie Yujia pulled Hao Ren with more force and dragged him into the square outside.

It was already midnight, and the Hongji Square was empty. Most shops were closed except for a restaurant and an internet café.

It had passed the time when the dorms closed, and most of the students had gone back to their dorm rooms. The Hongji Square turned from lively to quiet and isolated.

It was a bit chilly at night, and Hao Ren and Xie Yujia could see their breath under the street light.

Xie Yujia shivered as she let go of Hao Ren’s hand and rubbed her hands together.

“Let’s head back if you are cold,” Hao Ren saw that Xie Yujia wasn’t dressed warmly, so he quickly suggested.

“I’m ok. Let’s keep walking,” Xie Yujia said outright and stepped forward.

As she was walking in the front, Hao Ren had to speed up to catch up with her.

“What’s wrong? Did you fight with Zi?” She suddenly turned back to Hao Ren.

She looked particularly beautiful under the hasty dim light.

The Hongji Square was designed according to European villages. The artistic gift store behind Xie Yujia became a nice background under the moonlight.

“Not a fight…” Hao Ren turned slightly.

“Zi has her attitude, but she is a nice girl…” Xie Yujia continued innocently.

“Come to a place with me, Yujia,” Hao Ren suddenly interrupted her.
