Chapter 457: You’re Different From Them

Translator: Henyee Translations  Editor: Henyee Translations

The reason Huanhuan came to Rock City was to see her family and friends.

It was because she wondered how they were doing.

When she was sitting at home just now, she had even silently practiced her reaction if she were to see Shuang Yun, Bai Di, and Xue Ling.

She told herself to act natural. She couldn’t let the other party see through her.

Especially Bai Di and Xue Ling. They were shrewd.

If she was not careful, they would definitely catch her.

Hence, Huanhuan was nervous all afternoon, but when she finished eating and was about to get up to leave, she still didn’t see Bai Di and Xue Ling.

She could only leave in disappointment.

To her surprise, she encountered Xue Ling and Shuang Yun at the foot of the mountain.

When they saw her, she stopped involuntarily, her breath catching in her throat.

However, Xue Ling did not even look at her as if he did not notice her at all.

On the contrary, Shuang Yun noticed her immediately.

He stopped and frowned. “Why are you here? Didn’t I tell you that I never wanted to see you again? Please stop pestering me.”

In the face of his vigilance and wariness, Huanhuan felt a little sad. She said, “I came with a caravan. I’ll be leaving later. You won’t see me for a long time.”

Shuang Yun blurted out, “Where are you going?”

Before she could answer, he reacted and said quickly, “Forget it. You don’t have to answer. I don’t care where you go anyway.”

Huanhuan could only shut her mouth in embarrassment.

Xue Ling finally noticed the unfamiliar beast in front of him.

He raised his drunken eyes and looked first at her face, then up and down at her figure and outfit.

Huanhuan noticed his gaze and couldn’t help but feel nervous again.

She was afraid he would see something wrong, so she quickly said, “I’m leaving. Goodbye.”

Huanhuan brushed past them and strode away.

Shuang Yun didn’t understand why she was in such a hurry, and he couldn’t be bothered to pay attention to these small matters. He helped the drunk Xue Ling continue walking back.

After taking a few steps, Xue Ling suddenly stopped.

He turned to look at Huanhuan, who was walking away. He frowned and said, “Why do I feel like I’ve seen him somewhere before?”

Shuang Yun said, “Are you drunk? How could you know him?”

“You know him?”

“His name is Yu Tian. I met him in the Snow Region. We’re friends.”

Xue Ling was instantly awake. “What did you say his name was?”

“Yut Tan, what’s wrong?”

“Yu Tian, the Snow REgion…” Xue Ling connected them together and suddenly remembered something. He shook his head and muttered to himself, “This is impossible…”

“What’s impossible?” Shuang Yun was puzzled.

“He died many years ago. How did he suddenly come back to life?”

Shuang Yun was confused. “Who’s dead? Who’s alive? What are you talking about?”

“No, I have to see for myself!” Xue Ling shook off his hand, spread his wings, and flew quickly in the direction of Huanhuan.

Shuang Yun shouted behind him, “Hey! You just drank so much wine. Aren’t you afraid of hitting someone?!”

Unfortunately, Xue Ling did not hear him at all. In the blink of an eye, he disappeared.

…

Xue Ling flew very quickly. Before long, he found Yu Tian on the main road in the center of Rock City.

He immediately rushed over and landed steadily in front of Yu Tian.

Huanhuan was walking just fine, but in the blink of an eye, she was blocked by a guy who fell from the sky.

When she saw the person in front of her, she couldn’t help but freeze.

“Why are you here?”

Xue Ling still reeked of alcohol, but he was not drunk at all. He carefully observed the beast in front of him from head to toe again. “You’re Yu Tian?”

Huanhuan was nervous under his gaze. Her throat tightened involuntarily. “Yes.”

“Then do you know who I am?”

Huanhuan wanted to say that she did, but then she thought about it. From the friends Xue Ling had made in the past, he could know the real Yu Tian. If she said that she didn’t know him, wouldn’t she be exposing herself?

She thought about it, but she couldn’t think of a perfect answer. She could only ask dryly, “Should I know you?”

When she was in a dilemma to think of an answer, Xue Ling had been staring at her.

Hearing her question, Xue Ling chuckled.

Huanhuan’s scalp went numb from his laugh. “What are you laughing at?”

Xue Ling suddenly approached her. “Take a guess.”

Huanhuan instinctively took two steps back and frowned. “Why did you suddenly come so close to me?”

Xue Ling smiled faintly. “I want to see if your face is real.”

“What do you mean?”

“Nothing.” Xue Ling paced slowly around her, his fingers brushing her hair from time to time. “I just think you’re quite interesting. I want to be friends with you.”

Huanhuan dodged his finger and looked at him warily. “Why are you so strange?”

“Really? I think I’m a good person. I’m handsome, rich, and strong. Most importantly, I’m especially good at taking care of females. Well… taking care of them in all aspects. You know.” Xue Ling gave her an ambiguous look.

Huanhuan subconsciously rubbed her arms. “What should I know? I don’t know anything. Can’t you speak more clearly?”

“Well, since you don’t understand, I’ll make it clear.” Xue Ling stopped in front of her. “I want you to stay. Stay in Rock City for a while before you leave.”

“But I have things to do…”

“What are you busy with? Tell me, I can help you.” Xue Ling looked her up and down again and frowned slightly. “Why are you so tall? You’re almost as tall as me.”

In fact, Huanhuan was now half a head shorter than him.

But from Xue Ling’s perspective, he was indeed not much taller.

Huanhuan couldn’t react in time to his series of questions. She thought for a moment before saying cautiously, “I have some private matters to deal with. I can handle them myself. There’s no need to trouble you. As for my height… I’m not very tall. There are many beasts on the street who are taller than me.”

In this era where the average height of male beasts was 1.9 meters, she was indeed very inconspicuous at 1.8 meters tall.

Xue Ling scoffed. “You’re different from them.”

“How am I different?”

Xue Ling smiled. “Guess.”

Huanhuan: “…”

It was so tiring to talk to this old bastard. She felt that she would be led into a ditch if she was not careful.
