Chapter 188 - 138: A Thrilling and Exciting First Date

Wu Fang also nodded, her face slightly flushed. She let out a soft "Mhm" and followed Chen Jue out of the park.

After they finished breakfast and got into the SUV, Chen Jue set the car’s climate control to the low twenties. Feeling a little warm, Wu Fang took off her down jacket.

Underneath, she wore a form-fitting white cashmere turtleneck, dark blue jeans, and tall black boots. The simple outfit perfectly accentuated her figure, and Chen Jue found himself staring.

’Teacher Wu’s figure is seriously the GOAT!’ Chen Jue marveled to himself.

He had been so busy with training lately that Chen Jue hadn’t been scrolling through short videos on Douyin much.

But now, looking at Wu Fang, he felt that all the pretty girls in his saved videos—the ones created with High-level beauty filters and Photoshop—suddenly paled in comparison.

No wonder that after the video of him saving her from the dog went viral, all the guys online were drooling over her in the comments, leaving thirsty messages like, "Teacher Wu, I’m so ready for you," "Teacher Wu, I want to be your student," and "Teacher Wu, please debut already!"

With a body and face like that, she absolutely put the real-life appearances of most celebrities and influencers to shame.

Besides, the bizarre online aesthetic trend of being pale, skinny, and childlike, along with cosmetically-enhanced faces, was a world apart from Wu Fang’s healthy, natural beauty. The difference was like night and day.

...

They drove for over an hour, chatting and laughing with Wu Fang the entire way.

Their conversation mostly revolved around their pasts, like embarrassing stories from their childhood and school days.

The feelings between them were heating up quickly, and conversations like this helped them deepen their understanding of one another.

It was already 9 AM by the time they arrived at the Feiteng Equestrian Club in Fuyang. From a distance, they could see the entrance adorned with all sorts of fresh flowers and sheaves of barley. A number of luxury cars, like Rolls-Royces, were parked out front for show. It was clearly a lively grand opening ceremony.

Chen Jue parked his domestically-made car, grabbed his Bow Box, slung a backpack full of camera equipment over his shoulder, and led Wu Fang toward the entrance.

After getting their tickets checked, they went inside. They first registered in the packed lobby, where they smashed a small golden egg together to win a little souvenir. Then, the two of them headed into the outdoor area behind the main hall.

The club was situated in the suburbs of Fuyang in a prime location. Nestled against a mountain and beside the water, it boasted vast, flat, open grounds that stretched out as far as the eye could see.

He had previously heard Jiang Zhe boast that the place was over 50 acres, but Chen Jue had just assumed he was exaggerating to suck up to his wealthy clients.

But now that he was actually here, Chen Jue was getting a harsh lesson from the tycoon who had funded the place.

The entire equestrian club, including the adjacent hotel and restaurant, spanned over 80 acres. The outdoor area featured not only equestrian fields but also connected grounds for golf and paragliding. He had even seen a helicopter landing as they came in. It was, without a doubt, the largest club of its kind in Hang City.

In addition, the outdoor area was covered in green lawns enclosed by brown wooden fences. A few Dutch windmills, retro gazebos, and stables were scattered about, creating a unique and charming scene against the vast, clear blue sky.

"This place is huge!"

"The scenery is amazing, too! No wonder you were so insistent that I come with you, Brother Jue." Wu Fang’s eyes sparkled as she, like many other female visitors, took out her phone to take pictures.

Chen Jue, also finding the view delightful, took out his phone and gave Jiang Zhe a call.

A few minutes later, they finally met up with Jiang the Second and his family outside the main hall.

"Yo!"

"Chen the Fourth, is this your girlfriend?"

"Not bad, kid! Dropping a bombshell on the old dorm crew without a word!"

"But... why does your girlfriend look a little familiar?"

Ignoring his family, Jiang Zhe yanked Chen Jue aside and started jabbing him in the ribs.

It couldn’t be helped. Teacher Wu’s graceful figure and stunning looks made her stand out from the crowd, even bundled up in a down jacket.

The moment they entered the club, Chen Jue had noticed plenty of other guys’ eyes drifting toward her.

"Calm down!"

"She’s not my girlfriend yet. I’ll share the good news once things are official." Chen Jue patted Jiang Zhe’s shoulder before introducing Wu Fang to him and his wife, Gao Yun.

As they were both locals from Hang City, Wu Fang and Gao Yun hit it off, chatting and laughing together. Jiang Zhe’s two children, who weren’t even old enough for preschool, were particularly adorable and well-behaved, making them instantly likable.

Wu Fang immediately started playing with them. It seemed their Teacher Wu was quite fond of children.

But when they recognized Wu Fang as *the* Teacher Wu from Hang City who had gone viral, Jiang Zhe and his family were completely stunned.

It was like following celebrity gossip online and then suddenly meeting the star in real life!

His own dorm buddy had managed to land a famous beauty who was the talk of the town. It was enough to make even Jiang Zhe, a married man, a little green with envy.

He kept jabbing Chen Jue in the ribs and muttering in his ear, demanding that Chen Jue treat him to a meal, or else he’d spill all his old, embarrassing secrets right in front of everyone.

"My brother! You’re my *real* brother!"

"Let’s save the embarrassing stories for the dorm!" Chen Jue said, panicked, as he quickly covered Jiang Zhe’s mouth.

Seeing this, Wu Fang couldn’t stop laughing. It was her first time meeting Chen Jue’s social circle, and through his friends, she was starting to get a better sense of his personality.

In Wu Fang’s eyes, Chen Jue seemed on the surface to be a low-key master of incredible skills. But deep down, he was just like any other nerdy homebody—a reserved but playful dork who was cheerful and down-to-earth.
