CHAPTER 313: CHAPTER 160 TWO WOMEN AND ONE MAN! EVERYONE HAS IT TOUGH!_1

The next morning, Su Yan opened his eyes on time, as always.

Immediately, he felt the familiar heaviness on his body and the sticky sensation on his collarbone.

He sighed. Looking at Jiu Li draped ungracefully over him, Su Yan sighed again in slight frustration.

This Fox Demon was really troublesome. She wouldn’t listen to reason, and he couldn’t bring himself to hit her; she just had to worm her way into his bed every day to get warm. So annoying...

Su Yan shook his head and then picked up the Drooling Fox sound asleep on top of him.

This time, however, instead of tossing her off the bed as usual, he moved her to the side of the bed against the wall.

After all, we’re master and pet. Since tossing her off the bed every time doesn’t teach her a lesson, there’s no need to hurt her anymore. Better not to make her hold a grudge and deliberately cause trouble to irritate me whenever she feels like it.

After all, Fox Demons are very vengeful creatures, almost always seeking retribution. Even if they can’t get revenge, they’ll find other ways to cause trouble and annoy people; they’re extremely petty and prone to holding grudges.

Su Yan had experienced this firsthand during their two months of living together.

After moving Jiu Li off him, Su Yan didn’t linger in bed. He quickly got up and went out to wash up and have breakfast.

Meanwhile, Jiu Li was still sleeping soundly on the bed, undisturbed by Su Yan’s movements.

However, suddenly deprived of Su Yan as a human heater, she felt a little cold.

Instinctively, she curled up, expertly wrapped herself in the light blanket on the bed, and drifted back to sleep.

Usually, Jiu Li would wake up after Su Yan got up.

The reason she slept so late today was purely because Su Yan had been too ruthless the night before.

He had pulled out two of her fox tails at once, severely draining her vitality and leaving her feeling utterly weak. She was feeling utterly weak, let alone getting up early. It wouldn’t have been surprising if she had slept until midnight.

"Master... don’t..." Jiu Li mumbled drowsily.

Her expression turned slightly pained as she recalled the previous night’s unpleasant experience.

It had been truly seared into her memory. In her seventeen years as a fox, last night was the first time—the very first time—someone had ripped out two of her tails at once.

「In the bathroom.」

Su Yan was drying his face with a towel when a knock suddenly came from the door.

KNOCK, KNOCK, KNOCK!

The knocking had barely stopped when it was replaced by a man’s bellowing voice.

"Su Yan, are you up yet?"

"The academy selection is about to start! You’ll be late if you don’t leave now!"

"Su Yan!"

"Su Yan?"

Seeing no response from inside, Li Changxiao yelled a couple more times.

There was still no response from inside; it seemed as if no one was home.

Li Changxiao stood outside the door muttering to himself, Could he not be in the dorm? But that’s not right! I was doing morning exercises in the corridor before dawn, and I didn’t see him leave! He couldn’t have gone out partying late last night and not returned, could he? Really strange.

After calling out a few more times with no answer, he gave up.

Shaking his head, he climbed onto the railing, preparing to use Airwalking to swiftly reach Jing University’s gymnasium.

Just as he was about to jump, the door to dormitory 404 CLICKED open behind him.

"What are you yelling about so early in the morning? Are you trying to get beaten up by people from other dorms?" Su Yan stepped out of the dormitory, looking annoyed at Li Changxiao, who was perched on the railing.

Li Changxiao’s mouth twitched slightly. He then said, somewhat speechlessly, "Are you kidding me, Su Yan? What time do you think it is? Everyone from the dormitory building has already gone to the gymnasium for the academy selection. I’m trying to be nice by calling you, and you accuse me of disturbing the peace? Give me a break."

Su Yan said dismissively, "The academy selection starts in one minute. Isn’t that plenty of time?"

The dormitory was less than a kilometer from the gymnasium in a straight line. You can Fly in the air to get there in under ten seconds, so there’s no need to panic.

Seeing Su Yan so unconcerned, Li Changxiao laughed. "Heh, in case you didn’t know, let me tell you something. The path from our dormitory building to the gymnasium is full of twists and turns. Even if you sprint at full speed, you won’t make it in under two minutes. I remember you said yesterday that you only improved a little over the summer, right? That means your Creature Level hasn’t evolved to the Legendary Level Category, so you can’t use Airwalking. Therefore, you’re bound to be late." Li Changxiao delivered this analysis with a serious, Holmes-like expression.

Then he grinned and added, "Su Yan, I don’t mind telling you, I’m now a Legendary Level Creature. Airwalking is a breeze for me, and it only takes about ten seconds to get from here to the gymnasium. The academy selection starts in about half a minute. Want me to give you a lift?"

Li Changxiao said triumphantly, blatantly showing off in front of Su Yan. He’d been crushed so badly by Su Yan during the college entrance exams, so he had to show off this much now. The tables had truly turned.

"No need, I’ll go by myself," Su Yan said evenly.

At the same time, he thought, This Li Changxiao sure can talk a lot. In just ten short seconds, his mouth was like a machine gun, rattling off nearly ten sentences without pause. As expected of a chatterbox.

"Don’t be stubborn, Su Yan." Seeing Su Yan reject his kind offer, Li Changxiao started chattering again.
