They witnessed firsthand how Lu Mingfei grew step by step.
He is a real partner, someone you can touch, talk to, trust, and even complain to about the dragons' troubles without any reservations.
What moved Su Enxi the most were those few months.
Those were the days when only Lu Mingfei retained his complete memories, the loneliest days when he was most likely to lose himself.
When Mai, with her aggressively alluring beauty, repeatedly and deliberately approached him, offering herself to him with suggestive, even explicit, gestures...
Lu Mingfei, that lecherous guy, actually managed to suppress all his impulses!
He always adhered to his vague yet firm line.
This is Lu Mingfei.
He might steal a glance at a beautiful woman, or think about all sorts of things, but he has an almost obsessive principle when it comes to the word "relationships."
He wouldn't indulge his desires casually, wouldn't fall in love with every girl he met, and wouldn't mistake friendship for romantic love.
Thinking of this, Su Enxi couldn't help but smile helplessly.
Helpless!
Lu Mingfei's persistence attracted her, but also led to his rejection.
However… the little devil inside her quietly resurfaced:
If it were that aloof and icy Prince Zero who took the initiative to throw himself into her arms...
Can Lu Mingfei... still keep his composure?
She gently shook her head, dismissing the strange thought.
Based on her in-depth observation and understanding of Lu Mingfei over the past few months.
It's likely that he won't touch Zero even a finger until Zero regains his memories.
Seeing that Su Enxi's pale face had regained some color, Lu Mingfei decided to change the subject:
"So, you came to see me because everything is arranged?"
Su Enxi nodded, reverting to her queenly demeanor.
"Yes, we've already discussed it, and the time has been set for 6:00 AM tomorrow, as you requested!"
Lu Mingfei smiled and said:
"Okay, thank you very much!"
Su Enxi glanced at Lu Mingfei, then looked at Ling in the classroom, a playful smile curving her lips.
She teased, "You'd better hurry up and seduce the boss, or another woman might beat you to it one day!"
After saying that, she turned and left quickly without waiting for a response.
Several gazes almost simultaneously focused on Zero.
Zero's calm, icy blue eyes swept over the other three girls.
In just a moment of evaluation, Su Xiaoqiang and Liu Miaomiao were directly eliminated by her.
Finally, their gazes fell upon Xia Mi's flawless face.
Given Lu Mingfei's current physical strength, only Xia Mi, who is the Dragon King, and her "A" grade hybrid bloodline could barely withstand it.
The biggest threat now is Xia Mi.
Given the lively and outgoing nature of this king of the earth and mountains, she might actually win him over.
Xia Mi blinked, and with her intelligence, she instantly understood what Ling was thinking.
But instead of pointing it out, she deliberately tilted her head, revealing an innocent and bewildered expression:
"Huh? Why are you looking at me like that? Is there something on my face?"
Zero remained expressionless and naturally shifted his gaze:
"It's nothing, you're good-looking, I'm just looking at you a bit more."
Xia Mi chuckled.
This sounds so familiar...
If she remembered correctly, Lu Mingfei seemed to have said the same thing to that sulking Su Xiaoqiang back then.
So you're just learning and applying what you've learned?
She smiled slyly, skipped lightly to Lu Mingfei's side, and a bright, sunny smile bloomed on her face:
"Lu Mingfei~ Lu Mingfei!" She practically grabbed Lu Mingfei's sleeve and shook him. "Do you want to come stay at my house tonight? My house is huge!"
Lu Mingfei turned his head to look at her, and met her eyes, which were blinking frantically as if they could speak.
What is this girl trying to do? Where does she even have a home in this small town?
He patiently explained:
“Not now. I have an agreement with the authorities that I cannot move around freely for the time being in order to avoid unnecessary disturbances and riots. I have to stay at school tonight.”
Xia Mi slapped her forehead, suddenly realizing:
"That's right! If you went out and wandered around now, humans would probably beg you to teach them immortal techniques! Haha!"
She immediately clung to him without hesitation, hugging Lu Mingfei's arm as if she were determined to cling to him.
"Okay! I'll stay at school with you tonight!"
In reality, Lu Mingfei had some concerns and needed to maintain stability in the early stages of cooperation with the authorities.
Although he himself was not afraid, he still had so many people around him.
Just then, a series of slightly hurried footsteps came from the end of the corridor.
Immediately afterwards, Mai Shude's tall and slender figure appeared at the door, followed by a girl with a reserved expression and slightly lowered head—Chen Wenwen.
"Boss, the person has been brought." Jiude Mai said concisely, completing the task.
"Okay, thank you for your hard work, Mai." Lu Mingfei nodded slightly.
Mai Shude's gaze lingered on Lu Mingfei's face for a moment, filled with a hint of doubt, but she didn't ask any further questions:
"Then I'll be going now." With that, she turned and left briskly.
I bumped into the potato chip girl on my way here...
Something was wrong with the lost and dejected look on her face.
We need to go and find out what's going on right away!
Lu Mingfei's gaze then turned to Chen Wenwen, who was standing nervously by the door.
"Let's go to the empty classroom next door." He gestured slightly to the side, "I have something to talk to you about."
Chapter 123 The Road Ahead is Difficult, the Tribulation of the Third Order
The two arrived at the podium in the empty classroom next door.
The other girls were all very considerate and didn't bother them.
Because Lu Mingfei had just shown them through his actions.
He was able to resist the advances of a great beauty like Su Enxi.
Moreover, judging from Su Enxi's words, Lu Mingfei has not yet transformed from a boy into a man.
All of this proves that Lu Mingfei is not someone who would recklessly indulge his desires.
His restraint reassured them and made them understand the situation.
Lu Mingfei looked at Chen Wenwen, who had her head down, and said calmly:
"Chen Wenwen, I have a question for you!"
"Okay! Go ahead and ask!" Chen Wenwen said in a very soft voice.
Lu Mingfei took a deep breath and said in a deep voice:
"How did you retain your memories from before the timeline was rewritten? In other words, who helped you retain your memories?"
Chen Wenwen looked up, her eyes full of confusion: "Wasn't it you who helped me preserve my memories?"
Lu Mingfei shook his head: "It wasn't me!"
Upon hearing this, Chen Wenwen could no longer suppress her disappointment, and it dissipated.
She stubbornly believed that the preservation of that precious memory stemmed from his last bit of reluctance and soft-heartedness, and was proof of the lingering connection between them.
It turns out... from beginning to end, it was all just her... indulging in wishful thinking.
"I...I don't know either..." Her voice was tinged with an uncontrollable fragility, as she desperately suppressed her tears, her shoulders trembling slightly. "I thought...it was you..."
Lu Mingfei fell silent.
That's it!
No wonder she was so persistent three months ago, trying to get closer to me again and again.
It turns out that the faint hope, the candle that kept her alive, was something she mistakenly believed he had lit himself!
Now, he had extinguished that faint flame with his own hands.
Lu Mingfei sighed softly and looked away.
"Okay, I understand. You can go back now."
Chen Wenwen didn't look up again, as if all her strength had been drained away. She turned around, dragged her heavy steps, and moved step by step toward the door.
Crystalline tears finally welled up and dripped silently onto the surface of her black flat shoes, leaving dark, damp stains.
Watching her fragile, seemingly fragile figure disappear behind the door, a subtle, complex emotion swept through Lu Mingfei's heart.
Seeing her like this, Lu Mingfei couldn't help but ask himself:
"System, can you delete Chen Wenwen's memory?"
