Chapter 239 (2/2)

Edward suddenly made a face, a very melancholic expression, “If I didn’t know her, why would I risk my life to come alone? If it weren’t for you, I would’ve been killed by the robbers!”

If you thought about it, it was indeed a little strange Edward would be here alone. He looked like an aristocrat and was a young martial artist himself. People like him usually have an entourage, not sit in a carriage filled with random people.

The group of carriages that were robbed were owned by traders. Edward was just hitching a ride, he didn’t know anyone inside. That was why his capabilities were underestimated by the robbers, incurring huge costs on their side!

Why would an aristocratic martial expert be here alone? If there weren’t anything out of the ordinary, he might’ve been there to have fun and train his fighting skills.

Ye Lang never asked questions because this had nothing to do with him, nor was he interested.

Now, looks like Edward was here for Kesha!

“Would that mean you both know each other?” asked Ye Lang curiously.

“Yep! Not here though, let’s talk later!” Edward surveyed the crowd around them who were straining their ears to listen, then dragged Ye Lang back to their room.

“You can talk now! Is there something shameful happening between you both?!” asked Ye Lang once they stepped into the room, immediately shoving Edward’s arm away.

“... Shameful? We’re very pure!!” retorted Edward, a little angry.

“Oh, alright! Then tell me about the pure things between you both!”

“Why did this sound so twisted?’’ thought Edward. He didn’t have the energy to ask Ye Lang about it though.

“We were both students at Violet Academy, we’ve been in the same class since young. I remember the moment I met her for the first time. I was already deeply attracted to her. I can still remember that innocent smile… I…” Edward started to describe the history between him and Kesha.

At that point, Edward and Kesha were still young, innocent good friends who would often play and train martial arts together!

You could see a hint of warmth, nostalgic of that innocent friendship in his eyes! He would never forget that feeling for the rest of his life!

He would remember every single moment he had with Kesha…

And at that moment, Ye Lang, the audience, was thinking of something else.

Violet Academy? This sounds familiar…

Ye Lang seemed to have forgotten that Violet Academy was the top school in the Ai La Empire. They were the Soaring Sky Royal Institute of Education’s rival.

At the same time, he’d also forgotten that students from both academies once got to mingle, and he was very close with a girl from Violet Academy!

Of course, that intimate moment wasn’t what they wanted at all, and it angered them too!

Ye Lang seemed to have forgotten all of it. Perhaps he’d never remember them again, unless…

“Although we are far apart in status, it doesn’t matter. I’ll do my best to get closer, and I’ll be happy just to be by her side!” Edward continued, “If she’s happy, then I’m happy. If she’s sad, I’ll help her…”

“??” Ye Lang didn’t understand. Wasn’t it an innocent friendship? Did it suddenly turn into a crush? He knew he’d missed out on a few important parts of the conversation.
