Chapter 38: Chapter -38 A Sleepless Night.
Chapter -38.
Before long, Hu Liena, Xie Yue, and the others had vanished. Once Ye Chen entered the Royal Academy by himself, he was unsure where to go and could only stand still and watch.
"Ye Chen, is that your name?"
A gentle voice came from behind, and Ye Chen turned to see Dugu Yan stepping out from the guard room at the entrance of the academy.
"I don't want to argue with you anymore; just tell me where Xie Yue and the others went." Ye Chen pouted, feeling somewhat uneasy as he turned away, avoiding eye contact with anyone.
"Don't get me wrong; I just want to reconnect with you, that's all," Dugu Yan said, pushing her bangs aside, and continued, "My name is Dugu Yan. I said many inappropriate things earlier without knowing the full story, so I hope you won't take it to heart."
"I don't hold it against those who are unaware. I'm not upset, so there's no need to dwell on it."
Upon hearing Ye Chen's reply, Dugu Yan chuckled softly. After studying him seriously for a few moments, she guided Ye Chen toward the VIP residence area.
Dugu Yan's hospitality was remarkable, as she continuously explained the situation at the Royal Academy along the way, showing great enthusiasm.
Just as they were nearing the VIP area, a loud voice suddenly called out from nearby, "Xiao Yan, come here quickly! I brought you something nice from home!"
Looking in the direction of the voice, they saw a golden-haired man in Royal Academy attire eagerly beckoning.
"Why don't you go ahead? The VIP area is just up ahead, right? I can handle it on my own."
"That's fine; I'll take you there. The dean has instructed me to personally host all participants of the exchange conference. You must be a disciple from some academy, right?"
After casually glancing at the golden-haired man, Dugu Yan turned to Ye Chen with a smile.
Feeling embarrassed to refuse, he nodded, "That's correct; I'm the team leader of the Wuhun Temple Academy disciples. I didn't have the chance to clarify things earlier, which led to a misunderstanding. I apologize for that."
"Not at all; the Fourth Prince is indeed overbearing; it's right for you to teach him a lesson."
As if recalling something, Dugu Yan's lovely face suddenly flushed bright red, then she quietly glanced at Ye Chen and asked in a barely audible voice, "Do you have a girlfriend?"
"What?"
The voice was too soft, and Ye Chen didn't quite catch it.
Upon hearing this, Dugu Yan's face turned even redder. She didn't even look at him and hurried away.
This left Ye Chen confused, shaking his head as he walked toward the outskirts of the VIP area.
"Ye Chen, you're back."
As soon as he entered the gate of the small community, Xie Yue and Xu Ning waved and called out to him, but the two looked a bit off as they glanced at Ye Chen, their legs awkwardly tilting to the side as if trying to hide something.
"Yeah, I'm back."
After greeting the two, they led Ye Chen into a luxurious detached villa nearby, where they each took a rest.
Time flew by, and a new moon hung high in the sky as night descended over the Royal Academy. However, the usual calm was absent in the dark surroundings.
Outside the detached villa where Ye Chen and the others were staying, a slender figure approached slowly, soon knocking on the courtyard door.
"Knock, knock, knock!"
At that moment, it was late at night, and Ye Chen and the others hadn't yet rested. Xu Ning, hearing the knocking sound from outside, walked out of the villa and asked, "Who is it?"
"Tianshui Academy!"
The visitor didn't mention her name, but upon hearing that term, Xu Ning became excited. The beauties from Tianshui Academy had arrived; could it be...
Imagining a delightful scenario, Xu Ning hurriedly opened the courtyard door, smiling as she welcomed, "Welcome, welcome! Who are you looking for?" As she spoke, Xu Ning raised her eyebrows, constantly playing with her bangs, striking a pose she thought was very cool while looking at the visitor.
Seeing this, the blue-clad woman with bangs took a few steps back, glancing toward the villa and asked, "May I ask if Ye Chen is inside? I have something to discuss with him."
"Looking for the team leader?" Upon hearing the question, Xu Ning's excitement instantly faded:
"The team leader is in the west room on the first floor; please come in."
"Thank you, sorry for the trouble."
The bangs-haired beauty slightly bowed in thanks, revealing a glimpse of her fair skin, making Xu Ning's eyes nearly pop out of their sockets.
But before he could take a good look, she entered the villa and walked toward the west room on the first floor, her tall figure very enchanting.
Wiping the drool from the corner of his mouth, Xu Ning stood in place, enviously saying, "The team leader is really lucky; he already has a saintess and can attract such beautiful women. But thinking about it, just based on the team leader's looks, it's enough for girls to throw themselves at him."
However, just as he closed the door and was about to go back to rest, another knock sounded from outside the courtyard.
"Knock, knock, knock!"
Looking at the closed door, Xu Ning felt a bit hopeful, "This time, it must be someone looking for me." Thinking about how he was also a talented figure admired in the Wuhun Temple Academy, and his looks... weren't bad either, he should be able to attract some attention.
"Creak!"
As the door opened once again, the visitor outside was another sexy blue-clad beauty, her petite figure evoking a sense of protectiveness from the bottom of one's heart.
"Who are you looking for..."
"I'm looking for Ye Chen, is he in?" Before finishing her sentence, the woman in blue smiled and asked.
This question immediately made Xu Ning's expression turn unpleasant, but it was understandable since she was looking for the captain.
After pointing to the room where Ye Chen was staying and letting her in, Xu Ning closed the courtyard gate again.
However, just as she was about to close it completely, a slender finger reached through the gap and pushed the door open.
Seeing who it was, Xu Ning numbly pointed to Ye Chen's room and said, "The captain is in that room."
"Thank you, you're really a kind person."
The beautiful woman smiled at Xu Ning and then walked toward the villa, leaving a trail of fragrant air.
"There won't be more women looking for the captain, right? No way, really no way." Muttering to herself, Xu Ning didn't close the door again; she just stood there staring outside the courtyard.
Sure enough, a few minutes later, another disciple from Tianshui Academy walked over slowly, and under Xu Ning's guidance, went to the room on the west side of the first floor.
This repeated several times, and after three more beauties arrived at the villa and were sent to the west room by Xu Ning, the lonely little villa finally quieted down, no longer disturbed.
Dragging her weary body, Xu Ning felt that tonight was destined to be a sleepless night.
Looking at the moving shadows in the west room, Xu Ning's eyes were full of envy, and then she weakly clenched her fist and shook it, making a cheering gesture, saying, "Captain, you got this!"
