Chapter 155 Dai Yueheng: No!
Inside the suite on the top floor of the Star Emperor Hotel.
"What are you doing here after dropping out of school? Are you here to laugh at me?!"
Looking at Huo Yuhao grinning at the door, Ma Xiaotao said irritably, but instead of closing the door, she walked into the room on her own.
Huo Yuhao smiled and said, "I came to see Sister Xiaotao and to comfort her wounded heart."
Having just sat down on the sofa, Ma Xiaotao threw her high heels at him irritably. "Who needs your comfort! Weren't you leaving? Get lost, just looking at you annoys me!"
To be honest, we could have won the match against Xingluo, unless Huo Yuhao had been on the field as well.
But there are no "what ifs" in life.
Huo Yuhao reached out and caught Ma Xiaotao's high heels. After closing the door, he walked over to Ma Xiaotao and sat down with an indifferent expression.
"Hmph!" Ma Xiaotao crossed her legs, picked up a wine bottle from the table, and poured the wine into her mouth.
With her carefree personality and her age, drinking was naturally not a big deal for Ma Xiaotao, and Huo Yuhao did not stop her.
Although she can be sharp-tongued, Ma Xiaotao is actually quite honest.
She was wearing a red dress with a high slit. As she sat down casually, the dress naturally flared out, revealing her full, shapely legs clad in black stockings.
Ma Xiaotao is tall, over 1.8 meters, with a graceful figure and excellent proportions.
Especially her legs, outlined by the fitted black stockings, have smooth and powerful lines, straight and well-proportioned, any more would be too voluptuous, any less would be too slender, perfectly blending feminine softness with the capable and sophisticated aura of a mature woman.
Huo Yuhao bent down, grabbed her slender ankle, and put the red high heels that Ma Xiaotao had thrown out onto her feet.
Ma Xiaotao pouted and shook her foot unwillingly, but still did not stop Huo Yuhao's actions.
Huo Yuhao nodded in satisfaction; those legs—they were truly works of art.
After Ma Xiaotao had downed three bottles of wine, Huo Yuhao spoke up.
"Now that the competition is over and the drinks are finished, I finally have some free time. Before I leave, I'd like to take one last stroll around Star Luo City." Huo Yuhao naturally extended his hand. "I wonder if Sister Xiao Tao would do me the honor?"
Before leaving —
Looking at his incredibly slender hand, Ma Xiaotao pursed her lips, but instinctively placed her hand in his palm.
Coolness and peace of mind—these familiar sensations immediately traveled from her palms to Ma Xiaotao's heart.
Huo Yuhao smiled and took her hand, then led her to the street.
After walking side by side for a while, Ma Xiaotao suddenly felt that even this most ordinary stroll was imbued with a sweetness she had never experienced before.
Does this count as a date?
Ma Xiaotao glanced at Huo Yuhao's profile, his handsome and impeccable features almost making her lose her composure again, and the reluctance in her heart almost swallowed her up.
Instinctively, Ma Xiaotao gripped Huo Yuhao's hand again, holding it very tightly.
Given that both of them are "celebrities" in various senses, Huo Yuhao put a layer of simulated cover on them to conceal their faces, and incidentally, to hide Ma Xiaotao's rather alluring long dress.
It's fine for me to enjoy it myself, but I shouldn't let anyone else see it.
They walked hand in hand, stopping and starting.
At noon, they found a quiet and elegant restaurant, and Ma Xiaotao ordered a few dishes that she remembered Huo Yuhao liking.
Ma Xiaotao didn't eat much, but she smiled and watched Huo Yuhao eat heartily, occasionally putting a few pieces of meat on his plate.
In the afternoon, the two took a leisurely stroll along the riverbank outside the city.
The river flows gently, a light breeze caresses your face, carrying the scent of fresh grass.
They talked a lot about their future plans, what kind of public opinion storm they would face if they returned to Shrek Academy, and sometimes they would say nothing at all, just walking quietly and feeling each other's warmth.
Ma Xiaotao felt that the bitterness of defeat and the sadness of losing Shrek's glory had faded considerably on this warm day.
Actually, this failure wasn't so bad.
It wasn't until the sun set and the sky was ablaze with a magnificent sunset that Huo Yuhao finally took Ma Xiaotao back to the Star Emperor Hotel.
"Oh, right, this is for Sister Xiaotao."
Huo Yuhao took out a dark blue diamond-shaped pendant from his belt and handed it to Ma Xiaotao.
Ma Xiaotao took it and examined it closely. It was a rather exquisite pendant, finely wrapped with silver thread and hanging on scales that resembled crystal.
The scales are shaped like dragon scales, and there is a pair of small dragon wings as decoration around them. Holding it in your hand gives you a cool feeling, and it invigorates your spirit.
Ma Xiaotao's heart skipped a beat. "Are these your dragon scales?!"
Huo Yuhao nodded frankly, "Although I trust Sister Xiaotao very much, if you can't suppress your evil fire, use it as an emergency measure."
He actually gave her his own dragon scales!
Dragon scales are a symbol of dignity for dragons, and an embodiment of their bloodline and power. Dragon Soul Masters are no exception.
The scales of any true dragon on the mainland can fetch astronomical prices at auctions, and many Soul Masters can even obtain some remarkable opportunities from dragon scales.
In Ma Xiaotao's understanding, Huo Yuhao's martial soul quality was probably even higher than that of the Holy Light Dragon. Losing a dragon scale was no easy matter, which was enough to show Huo Yuhao's care for her.
Ma Xiaotao gripped the pendant tightly in her hand, then solemnly put it around her neck.
"—You brat, I'm sticking with you for life!"
Then Ma Xiaotao hugged Huo Yuhao's neck and pounced on him with surging momentum.
Beep beep beep————
A gentle yet capable voice came through, "What is it?"
The voice transmission device is finally connected!
Dai Yueheng shuddered, his jaw clenched, and he whispered, "Princess Jiu Jiu—Princess Jiu Jiu, I want to ask you for something..."
"I plan to join the Northern Army Group of the Empire to make a living, starting from scratch, and contribute to the revitalization of the Empire."
He knew that, as a royal princess, Xu Jiujiu admired those who were willing to give everything for their country the most.
So only by saying this can I move her.
"But now my Dai family has fallen into decline. Even if I join the Northern Army Group, I will be in an unfamiliar place. Under such circumstances, even if I have the determination to fight to the death, I am afraid that I will be throwing my life away in vain."
"So—so—for the sake of our shared experience of fighting together, I hope you can help me out—"
As he spoke, a few unspoken hopes arose in Dai Yueheng's mind.
After all, he hadn't done anything to wrong Xingluo, and he even deserved a lot of credit for Xingluo's journey to the finals.
However, the next second, a bucket of cold water was poured over it.
"Sorry, I don't know what you're talking about."
Her previously gentle voice instantly turned icy cold as she said indifferently, "Also, please don't contact me again."
"I am discussing cultivation with Yuhao and don't want him to misunderstand."
Click!
The next second, the voice transmission device shattered.
Dai Yueheng stood there blankly, unable to come to his senses for a long time. After a long while, his face gradually contorted, and he let out a roar.
"No!!!"
