Chapter 118 – Attending The Yearly Reunion (1/2)

Ch 118 – Attending The Yearly Reunion

That day, there were also other bounty hunters that had completed their missions but just not as fast as Lei Yu. Even though he was only a First Rank Bounty Hunter, but how many people actually knew his true strength? Since Lei Yu had just applied to become a bounty hunter, then it was natural that he was assigned to the lowest rank.

Lei Yu didn’t go off to accept another mission, he just returned to his hotel. His purpose was to wait until the evening because Hu Jiong’s mission had to be handled at night. The guild was simply unable to find out where the target was during the day.

Since there was nothing to do but wait, Lei Yu started cultivating. Hu Jiong also followed and sat down cross-legged. Because Lei Yu no longer had the Spiritual Bead of Longevity to help him purify the spiritual energy he absorbs, there was no longer any need for him to take his clothes off. Not to mention there was someone with him here so Lei Yu definitely couldn’t do that.

But it wasn’t even a few minutes before Lei Yu’s cell phone started ringing. Looking at the caller ID, Lei Yu stood up and went inside the bedroom and over to the window before he answered it with a smile.

“My dear beloved, did you miss me?” After saying that, Lei Yu felt some goose bumps rise up; he had actually never said those words to Ai Er before.

“Did you do something against your conscience? To actually say such sweet words to me that is making me nauseous!” Said Ai Er jokingly in her beautiful voice.

“So that’s how it is, then I won’t call you that in the future.”

“No! I like being nauseous!”

“Uhh…”

“Okay, enough with the joking, I have some good news for you.”

Lei Yu scratched his head, “what sort of good news?”

“I’ll be attending my school’s reunion, are you going to meet with me? Where are you right now? You’re not together with some other girl right?” Asked Ai Er with a laugh.

“A girl?” Lei Yu looked over at the rough looking Hu Jiong whose face was filled with stubbles. He then lightly coughed, “if he was a girl, then the earth would probably stop moving.” Pausing for a bit, he then said: “Why didn’t you tell me in advance? I could have picked you up at the airport!”

“I was just waiting for those words; I’ll be waiting at the airport!” Hanging up the call, Lei Yu shook his head helplessly.

Ai Er said she came to attend her school’s reunion but in fact was using this as an excuse to see Lei Yu. Ever since Lei Yu encountered “that” situation in the Kou country, Ai Er’s heart was fearful of a repeat. She felt that staying by Lei Yu’s side would be a better move.

Putting on his coat in a hurry, Lei Yu gave Hu Jiong a brief explanation before leaving the hotel. The two agreed to contact each other during the evening.

Surprisingly, there weren’t a lot of people at the airport. Lei Yu had just arrived at the airport and observed Ai Er’s figure. The first thing they did was give each other a big hug before Lei Yu immediately drove Ai Er to her school.

When Ai Er went to school abroad, it was actually a famous New York University in the U.S. She had received the school’s invitation to attend their annual reunion in the past, but because Lei Yu was still in Tenglong country for the past two years, Ai Er did not fly back to attend. And since Lei Yu was coincidentally in the U.S. this time, Ai Er had found her ideal excuse.

The university campus in New York City was very pretty. The buildings were nice and the green grounds were beautiful. The school had a large number of wealthy students so when Lei Yu and Ai Er arrived, their car didn’t attract too much attention; some students only took an extra glance and whatnot.

“Are there any themes to the reunion?” Asked Lei Yu.

“There’s none, just a simple reception. But before going in, there are some fellow students I want to meet up with first, can we wait for them?” Said Ai Er as she looked around looking for them.

Lei Yu nodded before relaxing his hands on the steering wheel. Tapping the wheel in boredom, he casually checked out the surrounding landscape of the school.
