Chapter 376 (2/2)

“Aw, you’re so thoughtful!” cooed Xuan Yuanbing with a gentle smile, holding her hands out to receive Ye Lang’s offering. Her heart was warm as she began to munch on bread.

Xuan Yuanbing’s entire being was filled with warmth, a warmth that was bestowed upon her by Ye Lang. He actually cared about her!

Blissfully unaware of his true intention, Ye Lang’s next reply killed the mood-

“You’re welcome! With you full, there’s one less person eyeing my food!”

“...”

Just like that, Ye Lang and Xuan Yuanbing were “chased” off the grounds, the Light Arena resumed its intended programme. The departure of the two “famous figures” had left the audience with some food for thought.

Some were pondering the seemingly intimate relationship between the two while some were thinking about the possible impacts of the relationship…

There was a misunderstanding brewing among the students who knew about Ye Lang’s special status in Sheng City. The incident led them to believe that Ye Lang’s status had stemmed from his relationship with the Sacred Lady!

Though they weren’t clear about their relationship and interaction, they had felt inferior and gave themselves a reason to dislike him. Ye Lang was receiving preferential treatment because of a lady!

They couldn’t help but be jealous- they wanted a slice of the action too!

Ye Lang and Xuan Yuanbing had no idea of what was going on behind them. The two were in search of a suitable picnic spot but none of the locations had appealed to them. In the end, Ye Lang had decided on a place, which happened to be the site of the demolished palace.

The site had been cleared up, then converted into a large empty square which would remain untouched until the Sheng City decided to do something with it.

A palace was unnecessary in the Sheng City as many structures here were already large with virtually no tenants. A big palace like that was more work for the city, more money had to be spent on its maintenance!

Its demolishment was probably best for the sake of the city.

“Ye Lang, doesn’t this place feel too empty?” asked Xuan Yuanbing with furrowed brows as she pointed at the vast square.

“What?” Ye Lang was distracted, the sizzling hot piece of meat in his mouth tasted amazing! Zhen Xiaoyan really was a culinary prodigy, it didn’t take her long to master the art of teppanyaki.

“I mean, they should have done some landscaping here to utilize this square! Like placing some stones here, digging a river here and…” rambled Xuan Yuanbing as she gestured at different corners of the site. She went on and on and on…

“It’s a pity that this is not a dream. I would’ve been able to change everything so easily!” Xuan Yuanbing was finally done with her critique, flashing a bright smile at Ye Lang.

She was the sole designer of her dream, controlling its settings and details every single time without fail- the settings of her dreams were never the same. With years of practice, she was a master!

She was possibly the best landscape designer in all of the mainland!

“Then you should continue dreaming!” blurted Ye Lang.

“Go to hell!” raged Xuan Yuanbing in response. The Sacred Lady hated the thought of dreaming and the idea triggered annoyance in her. Little did she know that in the near future, with Ye Lang running about in the outside world, the Lady would yearn for her return to the dreamland just to see his face again.
