Chapter 108: Bai Shasha’s Request

Chapter 108: Chapter 108: Bai Shasha’s Request

Holy crap!

’The flat-chested girl is downstairs?!’

Li Heng was stunned. He didn’t even stop to consider questions like how the flat-chested girl knew where he lived.

He subconsciously walked out of his room and looked down from the living room window. Sure enough, he saw Bai Shasha standing in front of his apartment building in her clean school uniform.

"Mom! Dad! I’m heading downstairs for a bit!"

Someone was waiting for him downstairs. Li Heng couldn’t just leave her standing there. He quickly ran down to meet the flat-chested girl he hadn’t seen in a while.

Bai Shasha was wearing her Thirteenth Middle School uniform. It was clean, with no bloodstains or tears, and she had no visible injuries.

"Bai Shasha? Long time no see! So... what can I do for you?" Li Heng was curious, so he decided to ask her purpose for coming directly.

Li Heng knew a little about Bai Shasha. The girl was often very direct and usually didn’t talk much.

However, ever since they started teaming up, Li Heng had discovered many sides to her personality that she hadn’t shown before.

For example, she would get shy when complimented, she was strong and independent, and sometimes she could be quite talkative.

But what left the deepest impression on Li Heng was that single word: "Retreat!"

It was that word from the flat-chested girl that made him understand what true cautiousness was—decisive and resolute.

"Li Heng! I want to go to a Soul Energy University and keep teaming up with you! I can learn a lot from you. When I’m on a team with you, I know I can trust you with my back!"

Seeing Li Heng come downstairs and greet her, Bai Shasha leaned forward slightly, burying her head toward her chest, and asked him with the utmost sincerity.

!

Li Heng had been curious about why Bai Shasha was here, but he never expected a "teaming-up invitation"—one that extended all the way to university, no less.

He was so surprised that for a moment, he didn’t know what to say. But before Li Heng could speak, Bai Shasha continued.

"I brought medicinal herbs with me, so I scored 1025 points on the mystic realm college entrance exam. I don’t know my exact ranking, but it should be enough to get into a pretty good university."

"Li Heng, you’re the strongest person I’ve ever met. Your score is definitely much higher than mine. I don’t know if I can get into the same university you apply for... but I have a request for you."

Listening to Bai Shasha’s sincere tone, Li Heng was a bit dumbfounded. He was surprised again to hear that the flat-chested girl had also brought medicinal herbs into the mystic realm exam.

But the main point was the last part of what she said: "I have a request."

Li Heng really didn’t know what to say, so he could only reply, "Go on, Bai Shasha."

Bai Shasha said, "If you’re willing, Li Heng, I hope you can share your university choices with me when you apply. I want to go to the same university as you!"

’I get it!’

Hearing this, Li Heng finally understood everything.

The flat-chested girl’s roundabout way of speaking had left him completely baffled, but now that he heard she wanted to attend the same university, it all made sense.

Bai Shasha wanted to go to the same Soul Energy University as him, and she wanted him to let her know his choices when it was time to fill out applications.

Now that he understood what she meant, Li Heng also grasped the meaning behind her "university team-up" invitation.

After figuring out what Bai Shasha was thinking, Li Heng couldn’t help but feel a little happy.

After all, a girl was saying she wanted to see him in the future and was even centering something as important as her university application around him.

In a way, it meant this girl had "acknowledged" him!

It felt good to be acknowledged. Besides, Bai Shasha’s figure was just a little lacking; she wasn’t short on looks. You could call her a beautiful... well, a cute girl.

Being acknowledged by a cute girl naturally made Li Heng happy. And besides, just sharing his application choices wasn’t a big deal.

"Okay! Was that your number just now, Bai Shasha? I’ll save it. When the rankings come out and it’s time to apply, I’ll let you know!"

Hearing Li Heng agree, Bai Shasha, who had been keeping her head down, finally looked up. Her voice was no longer as calm as before.

Instead, it held a trace of a soft, sweet tone he had never heard from her before. "I’m sorry to trouble you!"

"It’s no trouble at all. It’s not right for you to just keep standing out here. Want to come up to my place for a bit? My mom makes some pretty good herbal tea..."

"No... no! Thank you, Li Heng... I... I suddenly have something urgent to do, something really urgent! I’m really sorry to have bothered you..."

Bai Shasha left in a hurry, not even turning her head. Before Li Heng could even finish his sentence, she had left him with nothing but the sight of her back.

Li Heng could only stare, slightly dumbfounded. Watching her retreating figure, he didn’t say anything more, nor did his mind wander in other directions.

He just thought that Bai Shasha was a pretty good person, someone he could consider a friend he could talk to.

After watching Bai Shasha disappear into the distance, Li Heng turned and headed upstairs, preparing to go grind for some soul energy points at the normal Wolf King Mountain.

Meanwhile, Bai Shasha, who had jogged away, had a faint blush on her face. Heaven knew how much courage it took for her to come to Li Heng’s building and speak her mind.

This mystic realm college entrance exam had made Bai Shasha understand just how important it was to have a strong and trustworthy teammate!

Compared to Li Heng, the teammates she had encountered during the exam were, in her opinion, a bunch of trash!

No!

There was no need for comparison—they were just a bunch of deadweights!

So hopelessly bad it was painful to watch!

Forget about matching Li Heng; they weren’t even close to her own level of strength.

For those seven days in the mystic realm exam, Bai Shasha was constantly thinking, ’If only Li Heng were my teammate right now.’

Bai Shasha had witnessed Li Heng’s progress firsthand and knew he was a very hardworking and reliable person.

And after teaming up with him twice in a row, suddenly not having him as a teammate in the mystic realm and having to deal with a different group of people was something she found hard to bear.

Most importantly, Bai Shasha truly felt that Li Heng possessed a "striving," "hardworking," and "daring" Spirit that she herself lacked.

Others might not see it, but Bai Shasha felt she saw it clearly. Li Heng had a "steadfast conviction" unlike that of ordinary people, and this conviction was slowly starting to influence her.

So, during those seven days, Bai Shasha thought it through and decided that she wanted to team up with Li Heng during her university life as well.

But to suddenly show up at a boy’s building, call him down, and tell him she wanted to attend the same university as him...

The more Bai Shasha thought about the scenario, the more "shy" and embarrassed she felt. But she couldn’t let shyness make her give up on her future.

She had to keep following Li Heng and learning from him. Besides, there were still so many mystic realms in this world waiting for her to explore!

Bai Shasha had tried her best to suppress her emotions, and thankfully, the whole process went relatively smoothly!

She had never been to someone else’s home in her entire life, let alone a boy’s home...

So when Li Heng invited her upstairs to sit for a while, Bai Shasha just couldn’t handle it!
