Chapter 201: We Meet Again

September dojo was now even more desolated. News of Lan Yixing’s death had not reached the place, and the dojo was peacefully quiet as usual.

The main door was open, but no sound was heard from within.

Looking at the September dojo right in front of her, Rui Bing’s even breathing despite her hurried journey to the place now began to shorten. A faint blush colored her snow white cheeks.

Rui Bing breathed in deeply and ran, her figure almost like a gigantic bird, entering the dojo.

The dojo was silent, and without a single occupant. Rui Bing was unfazed, and continued inwards. Wei Yuan, however, looked around anxiously in her arms. Under Rui Bing’s care, he was now livelier than before.

Ye Chong was about to leave the September dojo when Shang spoke up, ”Ye, wait, let’s go to the front.”

”What’s up?” Ye Chong asked, curious.

”You’ll see!” Shang’s tone was odd.

”Okay!” Ye Chong could not reckon what Shang was planning, but he knew that the mech would not harm him. For Ye Chong, the mech was his most trusted companion besides Mu. Shang may be up to some playful tricks once in awhile, but he would never do anything beyond that.

Ye Chong heard footsteps just as he stepped out of the room.

”An expert!” Ye Chong realized. Usually, people walked by landing the heel of their feet first, but Ye Chong could tell from the sound that this person moved with the tips of the feet. Ye Chong was similar in this regard, since the tips of the feet were more agile, and allowed for faster and more abrupt movements. However, this was an expert technique, since the skill required strength in the tips of the feet.

The footsteps were coming closer to him.

Ye Chong stood before Lan Yixing’s room, waiting for the visitor. Lan Yixing’s two students were not here today, and the dojo was empty, so there was no worry of involving the others. Besides, Ye Chong believed he still had some time left before Hua Tiankai and his company reached September dojo. There was still enough time left.

Moreover, Shang had wanted him here. There must be something to it.

The footsteps came closer and closer.

Their eyes met.

”Hey, isn’t that the lady in the training garb?” Ye Chong asked Shang inside.

”Lady in the training garb? Haha, what a nickname! Ye, you still have some imagination in you! Much better than that dull Mu! Lady in the training garb … Tsk tsk …” Shang was doubled down in laughter.

Looking at him with his typical coldness, but with a greater sense of maturity, she suddenly found herself at a loss for words. Rui Bing stared blankly at Ye Chong.

Ye Chong did not avoid her gaze. To him, the lady in the training garb had made a strange request, but he still quite admired her.

”You, how are you?” Rui Bing asked softly.

Ye Chong was speechless for a moment before nodding, and said, ”Still alive!”

”Hah!” Wei Yuan could not help but laugh in Rui Bing’s arms. Rui Bing frowned, and let go of Wei Yuan. However, Wei Yuan’s outburst had removed the awkwardness between the two, or more precisely, Rui Bing’s awkwardness. Ye Chong did not feel a thing.

Being alive was not bad, according to Ye Chong.

”You’re YC?” Wei Yuan looked at Ye Chong with glowing eyes.

”Yes,” was Ye Chong’s brick reply.

”What an ignorant d*mned fool, interfering at this moment. Ye, you can get rid of him!” Shang spoke through gritted teeth, obviously dissatisfied with his presence between Ye Chong and Rui Bing.

Ye Chong automatically ignored Shang.

However, Rui Bing seemed unhappy with his interruption, and grabbed Wei Yuan by the collar. Wei Yuan followed like a tame little lamb as she dragged him to stand behind her. Wei Yuan looked at the back of Sister Bing with pitiful eyes, but sensibly kept his mouth shut. He already had the answer he was searching for.

”I’ve been looking for you all this while.” Rui Bing said calmly, but the faint emotions behind her words were noticeable even to someone as insensitive as Wei Yuan. However, Wei Yuan did not expect his idol to be more insensitive than him.

”Looking for me? For what?” Ye Chong asked with surprised.

Wei Yuan could not help roll his eyes behind Rui Bing.

Rui Bing felt her heart twisted, but her expression betrayed nothing as she continued plainly, ”I want you to marry me!”

Wei Yuan almost dropped his jaw to the ground. Heavens, what was with these two oddballs in front of him? What a peculiar way to confess, it was so cool!

Rui Bing’s words reminded Ye Chong of his life on Blue Ocean. The times he spent with Grandpa Qian was his happiest ever since he left the trash planet.

Rui Bing watched Ye Chong without a word.

Ye Chong gathered himself and looked to Rui Bing. ”I understand the concept of marriage, but no matter how I look at it, this is not a good time to discuss it.” Ye Chong knew from the chip that almost everyone in the world would choose to live their lives with someone of the opposite sex. While he did not see the necessity of it, Ye Chong was no longer dead set against the idea as he was before.

If he had to choose someone to live with, the lady in the white training garb did not seem like a bad choice. At least they could do combat training together. Ye Chong thought as much.

”Why?” Rui Bing’s expression finally cracked a little, but quickly resumed her calmness.

”I have some things to do.” Ye Chong’s eyes flashed with killing intention as he thought of Papa.
