The King of Black Fog

Chapter 268: Daily and Non-daily


After eating, the three of them walked out of the cafeteria and took a stroll on campus.

They had just finished a fourteen-day New Year event, "Journey to Outer Space." No matter how urgently they needed to compete in the game, right now, they just wanted to quietly enjoy a bit of everyday life.

The campus was bustling, and on the boulevard leading from the cafeteria to the school gate, vendors were selling books under the evergreen camphor trees.

The stalls stretched along the curb in a long line, and the bulbs lit up the path, creating a warm atmosphere.

Yang Qinglan casually picked up a book and then set it down.

"What's wrong?" Li Changzhou asked, standing beside her.

He used to stand beside her before, but today felt completely different — they were a couple now! He couldn't wait to tell the whole world about it!

Even the deaf, the blind, infants, and the elderly—he wanted to shout to them: Yang Qinglan was his!

His heart was bursting with joy.

"Pirated books," Yang Qinglan smiled at him, "I want to buy the original ones for my collection."

The stall's yellow light shone on her smiling face, making her look like a dreamlike, ethereal celestial.

"Hey, stop staring. Haven't you had enough?" Li Qianxia said breathlessly, blowing her bangs, chiding the two who were gazing into each other's eyes.

She wrapped her arm around Yang Qinglan's, heading toward the school gate.

"Qing Lan, what do you like about my brother?"

"His brightness."

"Brightness?" Li Qianxia didn't understand.

"Despite his own hardships, he sincerely hopes for others' happiness," Yang Qinglan explained.

"What else?"

"Keeps his promises."

"That's my doing. When we were little, we agreed to only use the mobile phone for 10 minutes each, and I absolutely wouldn't let him use it for a second longer," Li Qianxia claimed with a 'I raised this kid' expression.

If he didn't have a girlfriend now, and his girlfriend wasn't right there, Li Changzhou would have spanked her to show her who really taught whom.

Yang Qinglan chuckled softly.

"What else? What else?" Li Qianxia pressed on.

"He's strong, has good grades, and a firm will."

"That's also my teaching. Anything else?"

"Um..." Yang Qinglan thought for a bit, "A good physique?"

"You're so naughty, Qing Lan," Li Qianxia grinned mischievously.

Yang Qinglan joked, "I'm your brother's girlfriend now, and in the future, I'll be your sister-in-law. Is it naughty to say your brother has a good physique?"

"What about his face?"

"Well, I like that aspect too," Yang Qinglan admitted openly.

Li Changzhou kept silent; he felt like he was having the conversation with Yang Qinglan, and her words were meant for him.

The lighting was just right, the sounds of students picking books was just right, and the night breeze was cool and pleasant — though it might be a bit cold for others.

"What else?"

"He's good to you."

"Good to me?" Li Qianxia tilted her head.

Li Changzhou really wanted to shout to his sister, don't trust her, she used to be jealous of you!

"I've heard a lot about you and Changzhou. Someone who takes such good care of his sister will probably do right by his future family as well," Yang Qinglan remarked.

"Future family..." Repeating those words, Li Qianxia just wanted to laugh.

Li Changzhou laughed already.

Then Li Qianxia hooked her arm through his too.

The three of them walked side by side, instantly drawing the attention of the surrounding students — university students are at the age where they enjoy teasing about relations between boys and girls, and they were likely guessing at their relationships with speculative thoughts.

"Brother, it's your turn. Come clean, what do you like about Qing Lan?" Li Qianxia demanded, her eyes sparkling.

"Don't you know?" Li Changzhou said.

"I don't know!"

Li Qianxia and Yang Qinglan both stared at him. Li Changzhou scratched the corner of his left eye with his right hand: "The first time I saw Qing Lan on the bus, I liked her."

"Love at first sight?" Li Qianxia confirmed.

"Love at first sight," Li Changzhou nodded.

"Qing Lan likes your face, your physique, your inner qualities, but you only like her looks? Such a jerk!" Being his sister, she could unapologetically call her brother a jerk.

"She's very cute when she's shy."

"That's still looks."

"She's also cute when teasing people."

"That's a bit of character."

"She's beautiful when thinking."

"Back to looks again!"

"I don't care if it's her looks or her inner traits, I just like her," Li Changzhou said.

Li Qianxia, with a trembling expression as if chilled by the cold wind, turned to look at Yang Qinglan, who was laughing with her hand covering her mouth.

"I've decided!" Li Qianxia loudly declared, "From today, I'll walk between you two, sleep between you two, and absolutely not allow you two to —"

"Beat it, who do you think you are?" Li Changzhou pushed Li Qianxia away, the prerogative of being a brother is being merciless with his sister.

Yang Qinglan laughed out loud.

Pushed to the back, Li Qianxia charged forward, jumped onto Li Changzhou's back, and wrapped her arms around his neck.

"Let go."

"Let go? I'll choke you, you pervert who forgets family at the sight of beauty!"

Ming City University is huge; in the past, walking from the cafeteria to the school gate felt like they needed to rent a battery car. Today though, either they grew stronger or something else, they reached the street in a blink of an eye.

The three planned to walk back along Yanhe Road to the backyard of Qing Lan Bookstore and return to "Honey Pot World."

As Yang Qinglan was listening to Li Changzhou and Li Qianxia discuss whether to participate in the final exam and Li Qianxia's series of plans to cheat using her brother's skills, she saw Zheng Qing.

They were walking on the sidewalk, and Zheng Qing was standing in the middle of the street, where an accident had occurred. From the looks of it, it appeared to be a car accident.

She didn't hide her eyes, her "ability" — including her alertness, instantly noticed them.
