The so-called Southern Power, in his eyes, is completely insignificant.
Having attained the Body of Withered and Prosperous, as long as Lin Beichen doesn’t cross the red line, no force is a match for him.
"The matters at hand are almost dealt with, it’s time to find an opportunity to meet Luo Meixiang. According to Yuan Yanan, she’s been surrounded by a lot of flies lately..."
Lin Beichen walked slowly, yet his speed was astonishing.
In just a few breaths, Lin Beichen’s figure had already disappeared into the depths of the park.
The wild wind howled, a few dew drops fell to the ground, a shadow appeared and vanished instantly like a ghost.
Not long after the bar incident, the freshmen’s welcome party arrived.
Foreign Affairs College and Huadu University hosted it together. One reason being that, in name, the Liang Family is still a university, even though it’s not recognized externally, but appearances must be maintained.
Secondly, involving the Foreign Affairs College helped Huadu University save some money.
Students at Foreign Affairs College may not be keen on academic sponsorships, but when it comes to joining in the fun, they never lag behind.
Upon hearing that the two schools would host the event together, Foreign Affairs College spent a fortune to invite popular idols and several well-known online influencers.
Even if in past freshmen’s parties, it was basically a Foreign Affairs College event.
However, Lin Beichen did not attend. Instead, he turned and entered Huadu University campus through a side door by the wall.
There was a welcome party, and also an academic soiree.
New students need excitement, so outside entertainers were invited to celebrate, which was good for Huadu University.
But in the academic circle, some people dislike such hustle and bustle.
Huadu University is very open-minded, hence it allowed an additional academic soiree besides the welcome party.
The academic soiree did not have flashy lights, dancing, or stars to cheer on; it mainly gathered alumni of Huadu University, fostering a pleasant and warm atmosphere despite not being lively.
Lin Beichen stood in the shadows of the academic soiree hallways, silently watching the stage.
A girl hugged a pipa, gently playing and singing, her voice ethereal as if cleansing the soul.
After the girl finished her performance, applause erupted in the hall. Though not loud, it was considered the highest praise for those who love peace and quiet in the academic circle.
Lin Beichen didn’t have any musical expertise, but he could see that the girl was deeply immersed in the world of music, clearly intoxicated and playing excellently.
The girl nodded, looking around awkwardly at the crowd, and slowly stood up.
"Ah Xiang, don’t be nervous. We’re just gathering today, everyone is casually playing around. Besides, your music piece is truly taught by a master. If you can’t play it well, we wouldn’t dare to play and embarrass ourselves."
Jin Chuchu stood beside, clapping and jokingly said.
Luo Meixiang never flaunted, but the various awards and art accolades in her home were absolutely genuine.
The pipa in Luo Meixiang’s hands was something ordinary people couldn’t even buy. It was jointly handcrafted by three pipa masters, specially tailored to her habits, and had exceptionally calibrated sound quality.
Luo Meixiang stepped off the stage, chatting and laughing with Jin Chuchu as they walked out.
A young man stood under the light at the resting platform by the door, his face adorned with a dazzling smile.
"Ladies, the performance is over, care to grace us with your presence tonight?"
"Just you alone?"
Luo Meixiang frowned.
"Rest assured, I’ve arranged everything. There are both old classmates and new, they’re all waiting outside the campus."
The suited young man smiled.
Old classmates from Imperial Capital?
Luo Meixiang hesitated for a moment.
She’s declined many invitations recently, but rejecting even old classmates who came all the way would be too discourteous.
She indeed doesn’t like socializing, but that doesn’t mean she’s inconsiderate.
With a slight hesitation, Luo Meixiang nodded.
The three walked outward, Jin Chuchu slightly lagging behind, intentionally letting the suited young man walk with Luo Meixiang.
Truly a match made in heaven.
Jin Chuchu thought joyfully, nodded in great satisfaction.
"Ever since returning from the lecture hall, Ah Xiang’s state has been off. She even calls out a man’s name in her dreams daily!
It seems this little girl is indeed in love, yet she stubbornly tells me she doesn’t think about men. Isn’t it blushing if you don’t think about men?"
Jin Chuchu thinking about that night with Luo Meixiang, couldn’t help but giggle.
From the day they returned from the lecture hall, Luo Meixiang had been acting strangely. That night during dinner, she even drank a glass of red wine, which was rare.
Luo Meixiang couldn’t handle alcohol, she was dead asleep on the bed that night, half awake, constantly calling out a man’s name.
Unfortunately, the voice was too low, Jin Chuchu couldn’t hear clearly. But Luo Meixiang woke up the next day with a blushing face, her state was peculiar, as if she’d had a spring dream.
Is this iron tree finally blooming, wanting to experience sweet love?
As the three walked along, passing the corner of the hall corridor, Luo Meixiang suddenly halted, dazedly staring into the shadows.
"What are you looking at?"
Jin Chuchu curiously asked.
Luo Meixiang remained silent, yet stared intently at the man in the shadows.
Despite only seeing an outline, not even seeing the face clearly, Luo Meixiang had a gut feeling that this person was the man she’s been longing for recently.
"Mr. Lin, is it you?"
Luo Meixiang hurriedly spoke.
Lin Beichen walked out from the shadows, silently looking at the other.
The light illuminated Lin Beichen’s face, only then Jin Chuchu realized this person looked a bit like Professor Lin, who has been famous in Huadu University lately.
"Hey, you look quite similar to Professor Lin?"
Jin Chuchu covered her mouth in disbelief.
When Lin Beichen suppressed his Spiritual Qi, his appearance was quite ordinary.
Some things can be changed, but others, no matter how much Lin Beichen hides, cannot be concealed.
His appearance can be slightly altered, his demeanor can change, but his eyes and thoughts, can’t be masked.
Lin Beichen’s eyes hold a peculiar allure, deeply captivating others.
The suited young man glared coldly at Lin Beichen, his body tensed as if facing a predator.
His intuition told him that the seemingly unremarkable young man in front of him could be his greatest threat.
Ever since he met Luo Meixiang, he’s never seen her so mesmerized.
Luo Meixiang never paid attention to men, but now, she’s staring straight at another man, as if having a long-standing crush, finally getting a response.
Though physically close, Luo Meixiang’s heart is attached to someone else; it was indeed ironic.
"The ancestors said, if there’s someone who can save me from misery, it’s only you."
"Mr. Li Jiang is too flattering. I’m just giving it a try."
Lin Beichen replied with a faint smile.
When it comes to destiny, Lin Beichen wouldn’t dare guarantee it.
He’s merely doing his best.
Celestial Killer Lone Star, an ancient existence whose destructive power is beyond words. Anyone else would have despaired long ago, but Lin Beichen’s willingness to attempt is already remarkable.
Luo Meixiang stared blankly at Lin Beichen, recalling her experiences from the past dozen years, her eyes gradually moistening.
Once, she had a wonderful childhood, protected by her parents, harmonious with her siblings. Whatever she desired, her family would strive to get it for her.
Until the destiny of Celestial Killer Lone Star befell her, her situation plummeted. If not for the ancestor’s help, she might have been expelled from the family.
"Hey, hey, hey, how long are you two gonna stare at each other? Aren’t you afraid of going blind?"
Jin Chuchu, feeling neglected like a spilled vinegar jar, immediately rushed between the two, hugging Luo Meixiang firmly, glaring at Lin Beichen as a sign of protest.
"You’re the fortune teller? That Celestial Killer Lone Star destiny, just a charlatan! I really don’t understand what the ancestor saw in you?"
Jin Chuchu muttered.
A small hand pressed on her mouth, stopping her from speaking further.
"Chuchu, if you keep talking, I’ll be mad."
Luo Meixiang said coldly.
A trace of grievance flashed across Jin Chuchu’s face.
She is Luo Meixiang’s best friend, yet with this person’s arrival, she suddenly felt like a stranger.
Does this Lin Beichen have such great charm?
