Chapter 8: Heartless Person

Editor: Lordbluefire
On the bus that was currently traveling on a flat road, some male students were already rejoicing in the face of Xu Nan’s calamity as they live-streamed the start of the asura battleground.
Under the aid of the various social platforms, the news of Xu Nan’s confession toward the two girls had seemingly grown wings, spreading through everyone’s Moments.
The first person who circulated this had even taken a photo of Xu Nan, Qin Lele, and Zhang Yingluo.
Next, it was time to watch a good show.
What surprised the guys was that the posts on their Moments were immediately bombarded by females who only knew how to take selfies and put makeup!
[Wa! Is this the little fresh meat (young handsome guy) from the foreign languages society? He is so handsome!]
[Let that junior school brother go, I will accept his confession in their place!]
[Hmph, if it wasn’t for them snatching new students from us, junior brother Xu Nan would be confessing to us senior sisters from the literature society by now!]
[You males only know how to be jealous of others. Look and learn how good he had maintained himself. Check out how fair and tender his skin is. It’s simply full collagen!]
…
All the guys stopped spreading the news and also closed their Moments.
At this instant, those who hadn’t become autistic despite the fact they had been giving it their all, becoming the silent workers for the foreign languages society, were finally forced into autism by the impact called Xu Nan.
All the comments shooting down Xu Nan for being fickle in love were drowned in the saliva of an army of besotted girls.
After all, the majority of people still weren’t clear about the situation. Many people felt it was a rumor, how could there be a guy who confessed to two girls at the same time in the same place? Wasn’t that too crazy?
Although the photo was clear, it couldn’t represent anything. All the senior school sisters believed that they could distinguish right from wrong.
Were there too little rumors floating around in everyone’s Moments?
(Just look at the attractiveness index of this little brother and you will know that everything is a conspiracy!)
The air on the bus seemed to be sucked dry. The first person who circulated it felt as though he couldn’t breathe.
Luckily, he still had a strand of hope in his heart.
“I can’t sway the public opinion to crusade this fickle-minded scumbag Xu Nan, but senior sister Zhang Yingluo and younger sister Qin Lele have personally witnessed Xu Nan’s outrageous behavior, right?”
Senior sister Zhang, who had always been intimidating, would definitely not spare Xu Nan!
He stared over with hope in his eyes.
However, at this moment, Zhang Yingluo asked probingly,
“Did you have to pull such a boring trick because you lost a bet with your friend?”
Xu Nan typed single-handedly on his phone and retracted the message he had sent out earlier, marveling in his heart at how good the recall function was. At the same time, he was nodding at Zhang Yingluo like a little chick.
He had no other solutions. In order to complete his mission and live on tenaciously, he could only use such a lousy excuse.
Even if Zhang Yingluo and Qin Lele didn’t believe him, it was still a reason. This was also why he had chosen to temporarily conceal the effect of [Radiant-look]; it was all due to this excuse. If not, if he continued to let them sink in, he might really end up opening a harem on the bus. Although Xu Nan was gradually walking on the path of shamelessness, he still hoped to hold on to some of his bottom lines.
Zhang Yingluo naturally didn’t believe this.
Qin Lele cast a glance of contempt at Xu Nan. “You have confessed to me twice before, and I keep feeling that there’s a problem with you. Quickly say it, is there really a skill named [Confession]?”
Zhang Yingluo glared at her, indicating her to keep a low profile.
With regard to special power users, they were the trending topic online now. It was very easy to arouse people’s attention.
She drew in a deep breath, blaming herself for her excitement earlier. Right now, although Xu Nan still looked handsome, he no longer exuded the feeling where it would bring her a rush of excitement.
“Say it, who is that friend of yours?”
Zhang Yingluo regained her calm, and she questioned in an incomparably forceful manner.
Xu Nan didn’t hesitate. “Lu Junyi!”
In any case, he was hoodwinked a few times by that fellow. It wasn’t a huge problem to betray him once.
Who knew that when they heard this name, Zhang Yingluo and Qin Lele were both stunned.
“Lu Junyi? That quack of a doctor?”
Zhang Yingluo probingly asked.
Xu Nan turned pale with fright. The H City wasn’t that big or that small, could it be that brother Junyi is already so famous? Even his senior school sister knew him?”
However, since he had already said his name, Xu Nan could only brace himself and continued to nod. He then probed. “Senior sister, you also know Lu Junyi?”
Zhang Yingluo coldly laughed. “When he first opened that hospital, he hoodwinked me to go over to pluck my wisdom tooth. However, despite half-a-day, he still couldn’t extract it. In the end, Lele used a vise to extract it for me.”
Xu Nan was perspiring all over when he heard this.
That fellow, he really did all sorts of surgeries! Circumcision, pulling wisdom teeth, breast enlargement…
Qin Lele nodded in understanding. “So you are Lu Junyi’s friend? No wonder you are so unreliable.”
“Just friends on the surface…” Xu Nan awkwardly laughed.
“If it is others, I will definitely not believe your words. But if it’s that bastard Lu Junyi, your words are still somewhat credible.”
“However, you actually dare to treat Lele and me as a joke? You are pretty audacious, huh? Do you feel that the two of us are good targets to bully?”
Zhang Yingluo giggled and a terrifying pressure suddenly gushed forth from her.
In Xu Nan’s vision, the surrounding light all vanished, leaving behind only Zhang Yingluo’s figure, which was like a great devil queen!
“Senior sister is also a job-holder!”
Xu Nan’s reaction was very quick!
On his character card, a ‘stunned’ status appeared! However, very soon later, the resistance provided by his Ron Warlock bloodline counteracted it.
Xu Nan sank into contemplation.
Could it be that there were already plenty of job-holders running wild in H City? He already knew four of them: Wenxin, Qin Lele, himself, and Zhang Yingluo!
Wait a minute…
A flash of light appeared in Xu Nan’s mind.
He suddenly glanced at Qin Lele. “Have you also gone for surgery at Lu Junyi’s hospital?”
Qin Lele proudly thrust her chest out. “Do you think I’m someone that needs surgery? It’s just that I accompanied my cousin when she went to extract her wisdom tooth there. When I was walking down the stairs, I accidentally fell down and dislocated my wrist. Then that quack of a doctor spent half-a-day before he finally managed to push it back…”
This was indeed the case… Xu Nan had a look of contemplation on his face. Could it be that everything had a connection with that fellow Lu Junyi?
Zhang Yingluo had a smile that was not a smile as she stared at Xu Nan. “Why? You want to change the topic?”
Xu Nan embarrassedly shook his head. At this moment, the sound of sobbings suddenly drifted from the front.
Everyone was startled and glanced over.
A girl wearing a white custom-made shirt was sobbing in a low voice. Beside her, there was a girl with a swollen figure that was wearing a black long-sleeved shirt with a pumpkin on it.
The pumpkin girl was currently watching the show with the others while munching on melon seeds. Why would the friend beside her suddenly cry?
She patted the back of the sobbing girl. “Chen Shasha, what are you crying for?”
The girl turned her head with bitter resentment. She stared at Xu Nan. “Compensate me for my psychological damage!”
“Because of your actions, I broke up with my three boyfriends. And I didn’t have time to recall the texts!”
Xu Nan’s smile became gradually stiffened; everyone felt the girl’s words were baffling.
The pumpkin girl was stunned and patted Chen Shasha’s shoulder.
“But junior school brother Xu Nan didn’t confess to you, right?”
When Chen Shasha heard this, the pain was like a knife just stabbed into her heart. Her entire person was about to suffocate. Turning her WeChat on, she saw that the text sent by Xu Nan had been recalled. This caused her to be unable to speak for a long time.
In the end, she could only sit there and cry loudly while feeling wronged.
The pumpkin girl could only console her while smiling at everyone.
“Yesterday, she watched dramas all night until today morning. Her mental state might not be too stable. It’s fine, it’s fine, she will be okay after crying for a while.”
Chen Shasha sobbed even louder.
…
Xu Nan felt guilt in his heart. Chen Shasha was one of the few girls whose reputation wasn’t that good in the foreign languages society. It was well known that she was stepping on many boats at the same time (have many boyfriends). Just because she was quite good-looking, she would always use guys as walking ATMs. What was amazing was that there would be oblivious guys falling into her trap, or guys who knew her character but they were also willing to fall in.
Even so, he still used his charm and specialty to cheat her feelings. This was wrong!
Hence, he silently sent a text over, [I’m really sorry, it was truly a joke. I feel very bad seeing how upset you are. Actually, in my heart, you are a very good girl.]
When Chen Shasha saw this text, she stopped crying and suddenly felt a strand of hope in her heart. Although she dumped her three boyfriends, if she could have a chance to develop a relationship with student Xu Nan…
Her feelings turned joyful. She grabbed her phone and wanted to reply, but at the next second, the text Xu Nan sent was already recalled!
She had a dumbfounded look as she sent a ‘?’. Her emotions now changed from sunshine to a gloomy sky!
Xu Nan’s speed was very fast, [Recalling sent text is my habit. :p]
He then recalled it.
What a joke, he naturally didn’t want her to screenshot this. Seeing how badly she cried, although Chen Shasha looked soft and weak, if she really had information that could be used against him in her hands, she would definitely make sure he died.
The honest man Xu Nan was still very cautious.
Chen Shasha wanted to cry but had no tears as she stared at her screen. Her heart suddenly felt very painful.
Xu Nan regained his senses, but he saw Zhang Yingluo sinking into contemplation. It seemed that she no longer had the intention to pursue this matter. He finally heaved a sigh of relief in his heart.
At the next instant, a mission box automatically appeared in his vision.
=====
[Ron Warlock Bloodline Awakening Optional Mission]

“???”
He could also accomplish a mission like this? And he did so without hints?
However, it seemed to be a good thing no matter how he looked at it. Right now, he already had a total of 18 shameless points and could consider buying another batch of spells.
When everyone in the bus saw how this thing developed, their hearts immediately fell to the extreme bottom.
Where was the asura battleground? Why was everything so peaceful now? Xu Nan said that it was a joke, but could it be that they really didn’t intend to pursue this matter all the way to the end?
Only Zhang Yingluo was in deep contemplation. Qin Lele could only pout and would glare at Xu Nan occasionally.
The melon seeds munching crowd could only return disappointed, and the faces of the girls were once again plastered with smiles, except for Chen Shasha.
Not long later, the bus suddenly stopped.
Xu Nan curiously glanced over. Up ahead, the members of the People’s Armed Police had a blockade line.
“We won’t be able to go to the riverbend today. This road is blocked. I even saw some vehicles from the military.”
“We can only return.”
The bus driver explained to the people from the foreign languages society responsible for planning this camp activity.
As the vice president, Zhang Yingluo woke up from her contemplation. She temporarily couldn’t be bothered about Xu Nan and jogged to the front, going to understand the situation. After that, she and a few others that were responsible for the society made a decision.
They would change the camp’s location to a maple forest less than 2 km away.
This place was also very close to the little riverbend, about less than 5 km away.
