Chapter 284: On the Merits of Li Hao

Li Hao, who was considered to be busy with major affairs and devising strategies, was lying spread-eagled in his dormitory, his Skycom open in his hand.

"Aiyouyou, do you want to come to Tianjing Mech?"

"Hmph, Hmph Hao, why would I run over to Tianjing Mech!"

"Our Tianjing Mech has a long history, a beautiful environment, and you'll have me, a free expert, to guide you."

"There are plenty of people who want to guide me," A Youyou said with a haughty pout.

"That's not the same; we have chemistry," Li Hao teased with a wink.

"Senior, you've learned to be bad. If you're like this, I'm even more afraid to go," A Youyou laughed. "I'd like to, but I can't. My family won't allow it, and if I went somewhere else, Sister Dita would beat me to a pulp. I can only go to Tianxing Mech. What should I do?"

Li Hao was also very helpless. He naturally knew the chances were slim. Tianxing Mech, Dita—she was a good person.

"It's a bit of a pity, but you can have Dita play more exchange matches with us. We're all S Tournament competitors; we can help each other out, international friendship. It would be best if we could get our travel expenses reimbursed too."

"Speaking of which, how did you offend Sister Dita? She seems very angry with you," A Youyou asked.

"Ah, why don't I know about that?" Li Hao was also baffled. After all, no one wants their life to be missing a good person.

A Youyou looked at Li Hao suspiciously. "Did something happen between you two that I don't know about? Quick, confess honestly!"

"No, there didn't..." Li Hao's brain spun rapidly. Ma Laoshi had once said that at times like this, it was mostly a bluff; confessing would lead to a life sentence.

"Hehe, Student Li Hao, your eyes are darting around. We haven't even done anything yet and you're already starting to lie to me. No wonder Aunt says men are no good, hmph!" A Youyou pouted her cute little lips, leaving Li Hao dazed for a moment. This... was just too beautiful.

"What are you looking at, you bad person!"

"Cough, cough, it's not that. It's just a bit hard to say. A while ago, a friend of mine was injured and hospitalized, and he needed a large sum of money. You know my situation; the only person I could borrow from was Team Leader Dita. She lent it to me very readily. Well, I just happened to receive a batch of service fees two days ago and paid the money back... this, I didn't pay interest. Could that be why she's angry?" Li Hao felt a bit uneasy about this. On one hand, he didn't have much money left, and on the other, he didn't know how to calculate that interest.

Watching Li Hao's uneasy and conflicted expression, A Youyou finally couldn't hold it in and laughed until she was doubled over. The graceful curves left Li Hao dazed again. What kind of good deed had he done to encounter a girl like an angel? It felt like a dream.

Li Hao couldn't help but pinch his own face. This silly action made A Youyou unable to stop herself.

"You, you're such a fool. What should I do? Only I can sacrifice myself to save you." A Youyou wiped her eyes, laughing until tears came out.

"What exactly is going on? I've felt so guilty these past few days."

"Alright, it's fine. My cousin's 'young miss' temper flared up. She probably thought you looked down on her," A Youyou said, suppressing her laughter. "Oh, and definitely don't mention the interest, or you'll become enemies."

Li Hao was completely stunned. What kind of thought process was this?

Paying back money is looking down on someone, and not paying it back is looking up to them?

"Hmph, Hmph Hao, don't think about other girls in front of me!" A Youyou said. Bullying Li Hao was a very, very interesting thing.

This time, Li Hao noticed it too. "Little junior, you're being so disrespectful to your senior, be careful or you'll get a spanking."

"You can't even reach me, so what's the point?"

"That's not necessarily true. It shouldn't be long before I go to the Moon. Hailong Academy—I remember Tianxing Mech isn't far from there. Your lunar city trains are fast as lightning."

"Ah, really? That's great! Tianxing also received an invitation. Sister Dita is taking me. Once it's announced, I'll join the Tianxing Mech team and become their glorious team leader and image master. It feels like I'm going to steal her spotlight," A Youyou laughed. "Xilian is truly amazing; he won the championship just like that."

"You know Xilian?" Li Hao asked suddenly.

"I do."

"Ah, the Meraphis Family and the Daliven Family were among the earliest families during the development of the Moon. They can be considered family friends, but the relationships between the families are very complicated, and I don't really understand them either," A Youyou said.

Li Hao pondered for a moment and smiled. "I'm going this time because of his invitation as well."

"Senior, you seem to be changing the subject. Why aren't you asking about anything else? Are you jealous?" A Youyou suddenly laughed. In fact, after Xilian burst onto the scene, his family background, appearance, and abilities had all attracted the attention of the entertainment industry. Everyone thought they were a match made in heaven for Arths. Gossip, well, you can't stop it.

"No," Li Hao shook his head.

"Impossible, you were clearly hesitating," A Youyou wrinkled her cute little nose and huffed. How could he not be jealous?

"Actually, I have a major conflict with Xilian. The injury that kept him out for several years has to do with me. Of course, I had no choice. Going this time is also a bit complicated and hard to explain. I'm worried it might affect you." Li Hao looked at A Youyou seriously. He didn't want the messy things in his life to implicate her. As for Xilian, not a single word he says can be trusted. Once it comes to certain moments, he is capable of doing anything.

"I understand," A Youyou nodded.

"What do you understand?"

"You had an irreconcilable conflict back then, and now he's taking the initiative to invite you—it can only have two purposes: either he needs something from you, or he wants to deal with you. Brother, no matter which one it is, you really have to be careful. Xilian is a monster cultivated by the Meraphis Family; he is very, very dangerous," A Youyou said very seriously as well.

This time it was Li Hao's turn to be stunned. A Youyou had analyzed so much from just a few words. Once the label of "monster" was out, he felt relieved. It was extremely accurate, used to describe... people like them.

"How can you think so thoroughly?"

A Youyou loved seeing Li Hao looking so naive; it was especially cute. "Did you think I was just a 'silly, sweet girl'? My Golden Gene's dominant trait is the most powerful mental type. It's just that you always think I'm silly."

"Cough, cough, that, I'm actually also curious, what did you see in me?" Li Hao finally couldn't hold it in. He didn't think he was too bad, but whether it was Apocalypse or Puppet or whatever, they didn't have much attraction for A Youyou.

"Guess?" A Youyou smiled sweetly. "If you guess right, there's a reward."

Li Hao was dumbfounded. How was he supposed to guess this?

"Is it because my handsomeness just happens to fit your aesthetic?"

"My justice and bravery?"

"Or, my humor?"

Student Li Hao actually summarized every compliment he had received since kindergarten, making A Youyou laugh until she fell over again, until Su Yu, who was full of resentment next door, couldn't take it anymore and rushed in to interrupt the two. It was just too much.

"Li Hao, do you think I, this aunt, don't exist? I am opposed to your relationship. You two need to restrain yourselves!" Su Yu was also helpless. She had compromised, but it really couldn't get out of hand. Once exposed, both of them would be hurt. After all, in her eyes, Li Hao was at most an excellent military student, and even if he were the secret weapon of the USE, it wouldn't matter. When it came to matters involving A Youyou, the power the family could exert was beyond imagination, not to mention the fanatical fans—public opinion is a powerful force that can destroy anyone.

"Aunt, it was my lack of consideration. I heard from A Youyou that you also really like the Ocean Heart. I am currently trying to find it, and once I do, I will have A Youyou hand it over to you immediately," Li Hao said hurriedly.

??? Aunt???

Su Yu was immediately a bit annoyed and embarrassed; this was being too forward. But upon hearing the latter part, she beamed with joy. After all, as a woman, who could resist the Ocean Heart? Although this kid definitely wasn't worthy of A Youyou and didn't have any merits, he was at least a sensible junior, so she shouldn't be too harsh.

"Cough, cough, what Ocean Heart? I don't really care about that. The main thing is that A Youyou cannot suffer any harm. You two are both young, so you need to be mindful of your actions. It's not that I'm being unreasonable; there is still a long time ahead."

Su Yu was serious on the surface, but the corners of her mouth couldn't help but twitch.

"A person must keep their word; without trust, one cannot stand."

After saying this, she left and even closed the door.

"Yo, 'Aunt'..." A Youyou mimicked Li Hao's tone. "Senior, have you been practicing that for a long time?"

Li Hao's old face couldn't hold it together anymore; he instantly looked like a boiled shrimp. He had specifically asked Ma Long for advice on how to deal with a girlfriend's elders. Ma Laoshi had only said one sentence: Don't talk about those empty, flowery things; go straight for what they like. A heavy blow—hit them hard. That is the only way to solve the problem!

"Was that taught by Ma Long?"

"Ah, how did you know?" Li Hao hurriedly looked around; could there be a surveillance camera?

"Tch, in your dorm, that guy is the only one who is glib-tongued all day long; if it isn't him, then who else could it be?"

"It's not really like that; I took the initiative to ask Ma Laoshi for advice, but his tricks are truly useful." Li Hao was already impressed to the point of prostration by this; if it were himself, he probably wouldn't even know what to say. When Ma Long gave him advice back then, he had worried that he might be too thick-skinned, but now it seemed it was just his own youthful ignorance.

A Youyou couldn't help but smile, "Second Brother, I'm enrolling in school these next two days and will be very busy. I might not be able to video chat with you every day, so you have to miss me."

"I miss you every day..."

Then the two of them began a sweet gaze at each other.

One could only say, it was fortunate that there was no one in the dorm; if there had been even one living person, hearing such sappy love talk would probably have been enough to make them choke to death...

The following three days were quite explosive. The Chosen Girl Arths actually didn't choose the performing arts path, which left countless people who expected her to enter the entertainment field stunned. After the preparatory class ended, Arths chose a military academy and was specially admitted into the Starship Department of Tianxing Martial Arts, and she even achieved first place in the professional tests at Tianxing Martial Arts.

Once the news broke, the teachers and students of the Galaxy Music Academy exploded on the spot. As the highest music institution in the Solar System, they had long been waiting for the day Arths would arrive, but in the end, she disappeared halfway there?

It is said that once the news broke, countless students at the Galaxy Music Academy wept as if they had lost their first love...
