Chapter 55 Dinner, enemy brothers

As the night falls, the grassland by Poseidon Lake glows with silver under the moonlight. The stars are dotted and the breeze blows, bringing the coolness of the lake.

At this moment, the grass beside the lake is filled with all kinds of food. The aroma of grilled fish and barbecue is wafting in the air, attracting groups of fireflies to fly in, which seems to add a bit of vitality to the joyful atmosphere. Nine people including Chen Junting and Ning Tian, ​​plus Beibei, Tang Ya and Xu Sanshi who were invited, a total of twelve people sat in a circle, enjoying the rare leisure time.

"Congratulations, you all entered the semi-finals."

Beibei picked up the wine glass and looked at everyone with a smile. But then, his words were a bit joking: "But the next game will be your internal fighting."

"Hiss - then you guys from Class 9 are really good this time."

When Xu Sanshi heard Beibei's words, there was a hint of surprise on his face. "One class has three places in the semi-finals. If we work harder, maybe the top three will be taken by you guys."

"It's not that simple." Beibei glanced at Xu Sanshi and said with an expression of "you don't know anything": "I heard that the remaining team is from the White Tiger Duke's Palace. He Xingluo’s great soul master.”

"Holy shit! Martial soul fusion skills!" Xu Sanshi was also well-informed, and he immediately heard the hidden meaning in Beibei's words. So he patted Chen Junting beside him and said with a slightly worried tone, "Are you sure about winning the championship?"

"What do you think, Senior Xu?"

Chen Junting chuckled lightly, not worried at all.

"It seems like your kid already knew."

Seeing that Chen Junting was confident, Xu Sanshi winked at Beibei. "This information is out of date."

"Anyway, it's okay if the juniors and juniors know about it." Beibei didn't care at all. After shrugging, he turned his head and looked at Tang Ya with a doting look. But seeing that she was happily chatting with her junior fellow apprentice, she didn't bother her. So he pulled Xu Sanshi beside him, and the two started drinking together.

At this time, Tang Ya is here.

"Xiaodong, are you really sure?"

"Don't worry, Sister Xiaoya."

Wang Dong chewed the fish meat and used his elbow to nudge Huo Yuhao, who was grilling the fish, "Yuhao and I have a trump card. Not even Brother Junting or Ning Tian knows about this."

As he spoke, he seemed to think of something. Looking at the taciturn Dugu Xin, he warned worriedly: "Xin, don't tell us our trump cards just because Brother Junting is your roommate. The three of us are going to win the championship!"

When Dugu Xin heard this, the corner of his mouth twitched.

He picked up the cup and took a sip of juice, "Don't worry."

It seemed that he didn't want to talk more about this topic and accidentally revealed his trump card. So Wang Dong blinked, looked around, and asked curiously: "Why isn't Senior Jiang Nannan here?"

As Jiang Nannan's roommate, Tang Ya is naturally the person who knows the situation best. She puffed her cheeks, tore off a mouthful of fish meat, and said vaguely: "Nan Nan has to work at night and can't come."

Maybe it was because of Tang Ya's loud voice that even her vague words reached everyone's ears, attracting everyone's attention. Regarding this, Ning Tian and others were stunned for a moment, and then became confused. Wu Feng asked even more puzzledly: "Didn't Senior Nannan already get a thousand gold soul coins as a reward? Why do you still have to do odd jobs? It would be great to seize the time to practice."

At this time, Xu Sanshi, who had been drunk by Beibei, stood up unsteadily, walked to Chen Junting's puzzled eyes, and patted his shoulder gratefully, "That's Nan. Nan still has a mother to take care of. If it weren't for Junior Chen, Nan Nan and her aunt would still have a tight life. "

"aunt?"

Everyone said in unison, and the heart of gossip arose spontaneously.

The tone of this address didn't feel like it happened once or twice.

Only then did Xu Sanshi, who was slightly tipsy, come to his senses and realized that he had let something slip. He smiled awkwardly and tried to change the subject, "Haha, it's nothing. I said too much."

But as a damaged friend, how could Beibei let Xu Sanshi off so easily. So the sinister man joked: "I think Xu Sanshi, our affectionate senior, found that there was no way to get around Jiang Nannan, so he wanted to change his route to please his mother." When Tang Ya heard this, she immediately became energetic. He widened his eyes and looked at Xu Sanshi: "Xu Sanshi, what are you doing? You can't do anything to offend Nan Nan behind your back. If you are really like this, I will file a complaint with Nan Nan when I get back."

"What nonsense are you talking about!?"

Seeing that the situation was not good, Xu Sanshi waved his hand quickly. In the end, I had no choice but to tell everything.

Only then did everyone learn part of the reason from his mouth.

It turned out that Jiang Nannan's mother was in poor health, and Xu Sanshi had been asking family members to help take care of her. And Jiang Nannan didn't go home very often, so he would visit them every holiday.

After going back and forth, he and his aunt became familiar with each other.

"Jiang Nannan doesn't know about these things?"

"Of course I don't know."

Hearing this, Chen Junting fiddled with the bamboo stick in his hand and said, "Senior Xu, why don't you let her know that you are helping to take care of your aunt? Even if you don't say it directly or cover it up, your relationship will always be hidden. Better than now."

After hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement.

However, Xu Sanshi only paused slightly and seemed to have some intention. But the next second he still sighed and looked up at the sky with an expression of "You don't understand." "You don't understand."

These four words instantly made everyone speechless.

Yes, we don’t understand!
After that, the dinner continued.

But not long after, Beibei and Xu Sanshi, who were drinking together, reached their limit. They fell to the ground and fell asleep on the grass.

So Chen Junting and Dugu Xin could only be responsible for sending them back to the dormitory, and tonight's dinner party also came to an end.

Early the next morning.

When the magnificent morning glow appeared in the east and the air was filled with gauze-like mist, Chen Junting and Dugu Xin had finished their meditation, washed up as usual, and headed to the cafeteria.

But just as they were about to step into the cafeteria, they found Huo Yuhao and Wang Dong standing at the door of the cafeteria. And from the looks of it, Wang Dong seemed to be comforting Huo Yuhao at the moment.

Chen Junting and Dugu Xin looked at each other and stepped forward.

"What happened?"

As soon as he asked the question, Chen Junting noticed that Huo Yuhao's face was pale at this moment, and his eyes still showed deep hatred that could not be concealed. The hatred was like the burning anger in the abyss, as if it was going to burn away his reason.

Seeing this, Chen Junting also realized something.

There is only one person who can arouse Huo Yuhao's hatred.

Just when Dugu Xin asked Wang Dong what happened, Chen Junting's eyes had followed Huo Yuhao's and scanned the cafeteria. Soon, he spotted a blond boy, and beside him was a black-haired girl.

"It's indeed Dai Huabin."
