431 Chapter 431 “Picked Up“
"That cauldron building is for the alchemist division. The pagoda one is for the cultivator division." Long Ao Zhen moved closer to Li Shi Ying as he explained the unique buildings situated across the academy.
"Ah...then what about that floating boat?" Li Shi Yings eyes were sparkling with excitement as she pointed her finger to a big floating boat in the sky above the academy ground.
"That one is the building for the array master division." Long Ao Zhen chuckled seeing Li Shi Ying act like a child on a field trip. He couldn’t act close to her in front of people but here there were only the two of them.
"Hmm, alchemist, cultivator, array master, and beast tamer...wait where is the blacksmith division area?" Li Shi Ying tip-toed to gaze at the entirety of the academy clearly but still couldn’t find the blacksmith division area.
"Their area is underground. Only their dorm is above ground. There it is." Long Ao Zhen pointed at a black building in the shape of a shield which turned out to be the blacksmith division dorm.
"Ah, I see..." Seeing so many unique buildings gathered in one place Li Shi Ying couldn’t help but be excited. She was here for a mission, which was to get herself the herb but then if the academy was this good she didn’t mind staying here for a while.
SWOOOSHHH.
Wahhh, even the wind here was so cool. Seeing the trees and flowers around the academy really was good for her sore eyes.
While Li Shi Ying was happily enjoying the view from up here, a certain dragon instead of enjoying the view like Li Shi Ying did, was enjoying the view of his bunny being happy instead.
He really had this strange feeling every time he was with his bunny and he was afraid to find out what this feeling was but for the meantime...
Seeing his bunny have a happy expression like this was already enough. He would rather watch her from afar than being close to her but make her face turn sad instead.
Yep. Being like this is not bad. For now, it is.
SYUUU....
Li Shi Ying was enjoying the view from the veranda and didn’t realize that a flower petal was stuck to her hair near her ear when the breeze came flowing at her.
TUK.
She was immersed in enjoying the beautiful view that this academy presented when suddenly she felt someone touch her hair.
!!
Feeling shocked, Li Shi Ying turned her head around only to see Long Ao Zhen was chuckling as he had his hand on her hair.
"You got a flower petal here." Gently picking the flower petal from Li Shi Yings hair, Long Ao Zhen smiled while holding Li Shi Yings hair on his hand.
BATHUMP! BATHUMP!
Just by seeing her hair on Long Ao Zhens hand already made Li Shi Yings heart beat faster again. She could feel his gentle and warm hand touching her hair very carefully as if he were treating a fragile grass stalk.
It shows her how much this man cared for her even though she was family zoned by him, that alone already made her feel like she was at cloud nine.
T-this is dangerous for her heart!
"Yep, it’s done. Let’s go down now, I’ll show you to your dorm." Long Ao Zhen casually released Li Shi Yings hair and walked out from the veranda to the classroom, about to go down to the first floor before going to the dorm.
"A-ah yes" Being mesmerized by Long Ao Zhens handsome face, Li Shi Ying couldn’t help but stutter when Long Ao Zhen called for her.
That day Long Ao Zhen showed Li Shi Ying her dorm and also told her about the academy rules such as the dorm curfew, the forbidden area and such.
The next morning.
Li Shi Ying had woken up earlier since classes would start at 7 a.m. She had just finished putting on her clothes and wearing the badge after having a simple breakfast when she heard a commotion outside her dorm.
"Wah who is he? So handsome!" Since the dorm for girls from all divisions were side to side, the girls from other divisions aside from the beast tamer division could see when someone was waiting at the gate.
The girl’s dorm was large and each division was being represented with different buildings shaped uniquely with the beast tamer division having a cute cat paw building.
But all the buildings were placed in one area with a big gate at the entrance to the girl’s dorm. The Academy thought placing all girls in one place would make them safer after all.
Now today when Li Shi Ying had just gone out from her dorm, she saw many girls were squealing as they crowded the front gate.
"What’s wrong?" Li Shi Ying casually asked the girl nearest to her place as she found it difficult to pass through to the front gate when she needed to go now or she would be late for her class.
"There’s a handsome senior in front of the dorm gate. Everyone is saying it’s the famous ’His Highness’!" Even the girl from other divisions knew about this person revered as ’His Highness’ moreover Li Shi Ying herself.
"...what? Don’t tell her..." Li Shi Ying walked slowly to the front gate with a certain guess in her mind as to who made such a commotion at this time.
Could it be...that guy?
