"Oh, what do you want to talk about?"
Lin Feng was a little surprised by the girl's change, but he was not surprised.
It was not like he had never seen such a transformation.
If he remembered correctly, it was after the college entrance examination. When Ya Ge found out that she had been admitted to one of the Nine Elite Universities, she smiled with tears of joy. Now, it was just that the time had been brought forward by a year.
Ya Ge frowned slightly at Lin Feng's casual attitude. She felt a little uncomfortable, but when she saw Lin Feng's pale face, she could not help but feel a little heartache.
She wanted to speak, but when she saw the curious gazes of the surrounding students, she could only helplessly say, "Let's go to the field to talk." After saying that, she took the lead and left.
"Da Hai, go to Cafeteria 5 and wait for me. Help me get the food. I'll be right there."
Lin Feng said to Gao Hai. Under the watchful eyes of the crowd, he slowly followed Ya Ge's back.
Lin Feng was a little speechless when he saw the students gathered in the corridor not to eat but to watch a good show. Most of them were male students. Lin Feng suddenly grabbed a male student and asked, "Since you're so curious, do you want to go together?"
The male student was obviously stunned and almost peed in his pants. He thought that Lin Feng was going to hit him. He did not expect Lin Feng to ask such a question. He quickly struggled and said, "No, I'm not going."
"Hehe."
Lin Feng looked at the blushing male student and laughed happily. It was a little mischievous.
This child was very innocent, blushing at the slightest thing.
"What's wrong?"
At this moment, Ya Ge turned her head, as if she did not understand what had happened.
"Nothing, let's go."
Along the way, Lin Feng felt for the first time what it meant to be the center of attention. Of course, the center of attention was not him. He was just borrowing the limelight.
Lin Feng naturally understood why the students were so curious.
In the third year of high school, the students knew that the two of them were childhood sweethearts. They grew up together, ate together, went to school together, and were used to it. Even when they showed off their affection, other than being envious, they did not have much of a reaction.
However, something seemed different today.
Originally, the two of them were a perfect match in terms of social status. However, one of them had turned from a cocoon into a butterfly, while the other had achieved nothing. It was inevitable that people would gossip about their ending.
"Are you trying to cheer me up after seeing that I'm depressed?
Or do you want to break up with me? "
Linfeng didn't care about the gazes of the people around him. He didn't love Ya Ge anymore and didn't have any lingering feelings for her.
If it was a breakup, that would be perfect. This was exactly what he wanted.
Breaking up was the first step of his plan!
"Senior, can I have your autograph?"
"Senior sister, you're really beautiful. I'm your little fan, can I take a picture with you?"
"I'll do it. I came first. Don't cut in line."
The two of them shuttled through the campus. From time to time, there would be junior sisters and junior brothers holding pen and paper or mobile phones, excitedly asking for Ya Ge's photos and autographs.
The signature was not on a piece of paper, but on a photo. In just a short day, Ya Ge's photo had appeared in the hands of students.
There were photos of her daily life, but most of them were photos of Ya Ge refining the Charming Butterfly and being possessed by the demon spirit.
Ya Ge was obviously experienced. Her autograph speed was very fast. Linfeng casually took a look and saw that her handwriting was very professional. If he didn't know the name, he wouldn't be able to tell what was written.
However, once it started, it wouldn't end so easily. People kept crowding around and soon, there were hundreds of people gathered.
Ya Ge was surrounded by enthusiastic students. Ordinary people wouldn't be able to squeeze in. Not only that, there were also many students who heard the news rushing over.
"Okay, okay, I'll talk about it later."
Seeing the surging crowd, Solomon quickly put down the pen in his hand and handed the signature to a shy little boy as he shouted loudly.
At this time, the crowd had exceeded a thousand people.
There were close to three hundred thousand people in Jiangxin High School. Even if Ya Ge's fans were only 1%, there were still three thousand people. If she really signed the autograph, she wouldn't be able to do it even if she broke her arm.
"Haha, I've signed in."
"I've signed in too. That's great."
"You didn't, right? Hehe, I told you to run faster, but you didn't listen."
The juniors were very excited. They were happy to sign in and didn't look depressed.
"Who has an autograph? I'll pay a hundred yuan."
In the crowd, a short fatty took out a red bill and raised it above his head. He shouted as he waved it.
"She's so popular?"
This time, even Linfeng was a little surprised.
Could it be sold for money?
Could it really be sold for money?
Linfeng shook his head and sighed.
It seemed that he had underestimated Ya Ge's influence.
With her attractive appearance, a Rank-8 Charming Butterfly, and a member of the Juxing Club, Ya Ge was already a well-deserved celebrity in Jiangxin High School.
In terms of strength and reputation, the strongest in Jiangxin High School was Wang Wenxuan from Grade 12 Class 89.
This Wang Wenxuan was the president of their school's Elite Martial Arts Club. Although it was only a club for high school students, it had its own venue and teachers.
Since Grade 10, Wang Wenxuan was a famous figure in the school. It was said that he was a descendant of a big family. His martial arts talent was outstanding, and he had the strength of a Rank-9 Physique Cultivator. His overall results were ranked third in the year.
Yesterday, he did not participate in the Day of Awakening because he had already become a Demon Spiritualist a month ago. He refined a Rank-9 Raging Flame Lion. There were rumours that Wang Wenxuan, who disappeared for a month, had already joined the Thunder Club.
As of now, although he had yet to take the exam, with his strength and the rank of his demon spirit, he had already become the number one in Jiangxin High School. He was like a proud son of the heavens. Getting into the three great hero institutions was a piece of cake for him.
In terms of strength and results, Wang Wenxuan beat Ya Ge. However, in terms of popularity, he was far from being as popular as Ya Ge.
Although there were people asking for his autograph, they weren't as crazy as him.
When Ya Ge finally got rid of the passionate fans, the two of them passed through the field and arrived at a remote rock garden in the back of the mountain. The two of them did not take the initiative to speak. For a moment, the atmosphere was a little weird.
"Feng, we still have three months before the college entrance exam. Why are you giving up on yourself?"
After a long time, Ya Ge turned around and stared at Linfeng. The latter's face was pale, and his eyes were dark. His mental state was very bad.
"Although you haven't become a Demon Spiritualist, with your strength, as long as you work hard, even if you can't get into one of the Nine Elite Universities, it wouldn't be a problem for you to get into one of the key universities. You don't have to give up on yourself."
"Why aren't you speaking?"
Seeing Linfeng's calm expression, Ya Ge's brows slightly wrinkled. She was a little angry, but more so because she expected better from him.
"What do you want to say?" Linfeng asked directly.
Ya Ge went silent for a moment before saying, "Tomorrow, I will be going to Shangjing. I will be gone for three months and will only be back before the college entrance exam."
Linfeng didn't ask why, but he could guess the reason.
Shangjing is the headquarters of the Juxing Club. Ya Ge has signed a contract with the Juxing Club. In three months, the Juxing Club will do its best to nurture her, and strive to get into one of the three Hero Academy.
Ya Ge's score in the previous exam should be around 500 points. Refining an 8th grade Charm Butterfly would give her an additional 80 points, making her total score 580 points. She still hasn't reached the standard of the Nine Elite Universities.
Similar to Linfeng, Ya Ge's physique score is very low. This can be increased by relying on resources.
In three months, with the Juxing Club's financial resources and ability, it shouldn't be a problem for Ya Ge to reach 8th grade Physique Cultivator.
At that time, she will be able to get into one of the three Hero Academy.
Even if she can't reach it, as long as the difference isn't too big, with the Juxing Club's ability, it's not impossible to add a special skill to her score.
Therefore, if there are no accidents, Ya Ge will be able to get into one of the three Hero Academy.
"Okay, have a safe trip." Linfeng smiled.
Ya Ge was a little surprised by Linfeng's reaction. She was stunned. Why is he so calm when I'm about to leave?
At that moment, Linfeng felt like a stranger to her. After taking a nap on the Day of Awakening yesterday, she realized that Linfeng has changed.
In just one day — no, ever since Linfeng woke up from his afternoon nap yesterday, she realized that she didn't recognize the young man in front of her anymore.
"After I leave, I hope you can pull yourself together."
"Okay."
Linfeng's "okay" ended the short conversation once again.
Ya Ge clenched her fists slightly. She lowered her head for a moment and then looked up at Linfeng. "I know why you gave up on yourself."
After pausing for a moment, she said in a gentler tone, "You don't have to worry about that. As long as you work hard, we will still be together."
After saying that, Ya Ge took out a bank card and handed it to Linfeng. "There's five hundred thousand in this card. The password is your birthday. The college entrance examination is around the corner. Go buy some Vitality Pills."
Linfeng didn't take it.
Five hundred thousand wasn't a small amount.
At that moment, Linfeng was a little touched.
This was why he couldn't hate the girl.
This girl wasn't bad. In fact, she could be considered kind. She was just a little more realistic.
"Is it a breakup fee?"
Linfeng wanted to break up. Naturally, she couldn't accept it.
"No, I just hope that you can work harder," Ya Ge said gently.
It was undeniable that although it had only been one night, she had indeed considered breaking up.
She had refined the Charming Butterfly, signed a contract with the Juxing Club, and was about to get into one of the three Hero Academy. Linfeng, on the other hand, could only go to one key academy. When the time came, the gap between them would only widen.
Her parents and relatives also advised her to consider it carefully. Although they said that, Ya Ge knew that her mother wanted them to break up. Her father didn't oppose it, but he didn't support it either.
Last night, she called her best friend and confided in her. Her best friend also said that the two of them were no longer suitable.
However, no matter what others said, she still had feelings for Linfeng. They grew up together. In her heart, she still liked Linfeng!
She was willing to give Linfeng a chance, a chance to be together.
"Work hard, and still be together?" Knowing the result of the future, Linfeng's mouth revealed a trace of ridicule.
"If in the future, I'm unable to become a Demon Spiritualist, will you still be together with me?" Linfeng didn't want to talk nonsense. He directly asked, "Or even get married?"
"I …"
After a long time, Ya Ge still didn't reply.
The answer was already very obvious.
Ya Ge also knew that she was just finding an excuse for herself by saying so much.
Was the path of martial arts something that could be achieved with hard work?
If that was the case, then there wouldn't be a difference between a genius and a mediocre person.
Not to mention a Demon Spiritualist. Without the talent of a Soul Cultivator, even an Earth Ranking demon spirit wouldn't be of any use.
Without becoming a Demon Spiritualist, Linfeng has already lost the qualifications to become an expert.
Linfeng looked at Ya Ge and curiously asked, "You have so little confidence in me?"
Still silence.
Linfeng suddenly felt that it was a little funny. He laughed at Ya Ge and laughed at himself.
Since he already knew the result, what's the point of talking nonsense?
"Let's break up."
After speaking, Linfeng didn't give Ya Ge a chance to continue speaking. He only left behind a handsome back view.
"Lin …"
Just when Ya Ge wanted to speak, Linfeng's figure had already disappeared in front of her eyes, as if he was afraid that she would continue to pester him.
Ya Ge was dumbfounded. She was still in the posture of handing over the bank card. Her body was a little stiff and she didn't speak for a long time. Looking at Linfeng's back view, her expression revealed a trace of shock and grievance. The result was different from what she had imagined.
Before making this decision, she had predicted it many times.
Even if Linfeng was angry and scolded her, she wouldn't be surprised. However, she never thought that from the beginning to the end, Linfeng would be very calm, as if he was facing a stranger.
Furthermore, he was the one who proposed to break up first.
"This is also good."
After standing at the same spot for a long time, the girl slowly let out a sigh of relief, as if she was free.
