Chapter 910: Chapter 909: First Entry into the Small Courtyard

The Qingyu School is a key focus of the Hawkeye faction and an important connection. Naturally, they are familiar with its personnel. To outsiders, this may seem mysterious, but don’t forget that several military bigwigs know Beisitian, so they are naturally familiar with those around her.

Thus, when Zhou Tongxuan saw the youth, his eyebrows gained a few more degrees of smile, "I am Zhou Tongxuan, the Deputy Leader of the Hawkeye Pioneer Team. You must be Ping’an, right?"

Both those in the know and those unaware know that Commander Luo and Doctor Bei treasure the Three-life Child the most, but few realize there’s another person close to their hearts.

This person is Luo Xuping!

In the eyes of the world, Luo Xuping is Beisitian’s brother-in-law, yet people don’t know Beisitian treats this youth like her own brother. Zhou Tongxuan knows the family’s situation from when Commander Luo was undercover those years, thus understanding Luo Xuping’s status in Beisitian’s heart is more than just a brother-in-law.

Luo Xuping glanced at Zhou Tongxuan and then looked at the indifferent Xing Jun. He opened the door and smiled, "Please come in."

"Thank you," Zhou Tongxuan nodded, gesturing to Xing Jun as he walked inside.

It was his first time here, and he froze upon seeing the three adorable kids in the courtyard. The two girls were identical in appearance, hard to distinguish even upon closer look, and were remarkably cute.

The boy, although similar to the two girls, perhaps due to their contrast, turned out to be quite distinct.

When his gaze landed on the child named Luo Yirui, the child’s eyes also looked back, and Zhou Tongxuan swore the sharp glint in those eyes was not something a five-year-old should possess!

Zhou Tongxuan knew this child well, as the Hawkeye faction had dedicated a seminar just for him. Why, you ask? Being able to create Spiritual Talismans at five is definitely worthy of study!

Of course, such matters are only for analysis, as for taking Luo Yirui away for research... Ha, who could withstand the combined wrath of Commander Luo and the Great Power of Bei? Don’t forget there’s also Old General Wu, who’s notoriously protective!

With these three giants towering here, anyone daring to make a move on Luo Yirui is essentially on a death march.

While Zhou Tongxuan curiously gazed at Luo Yirui, Luo Yirui was also looking at him; meanwhile, Luo Xuping, observing Xing Jun from behind, couldn’t help but ask, "Are you nervous?" 𝓯𝓻𝒆𝙚𝒘𝓮𝙗𝓷𝒐𝓿𝙚𝒍.𝙘𝓸𝙢

Xing Jun’s body stiffened; despite a cold demeanor, he indeed felt quite anxious. His desire to integrate here was intensely strong, so strong he couldn’t ignore it, yet he felt his personality made him unlikely to blend into a group.

A layer of sweat broke out on Xing Jun’s forehead as he let out a cold snort, "What nonsense, what do I have to be nervous about!"

Luo Xuping noticed his tightly clenched fists, whose knuckles had turned pale since entering, a sign of either wanting a fight or nerves, yet he stubbornly refused to admit either.

"If you’re not nervous, why are your fists clenched so tight?" Luo Xuping teased with a cheeky smile.

Perhaps out of being flustered; upon hearing Luo Xuping’s words, he instinctively unclenched his fists. Though it was summer, a gentle breeze blew by, making him realize his palms were already damp.

Being exposed like this in front of everyone, Xing Jun felt both embarrassed and humiliated, his face clouded with resentment, realizing he wouldn’t be able to integrate into any darn group, much less want to; he just wanted to follow Sister Bei!

Xing Jun was slightly angry out of awkwardness, but Luo Xuping burst out laughing, "You’re quite entertaining, kid."

"Who are you teasing now?"

Another voice sounded, and Xing Jun turned to see another youth, a few years older than him and Luo Xuping, with a carefree demeanor walking through an archway, speaking as he approached.

Xing Jun no longer cared to engage, turning to leave on the spot. Luo Xuping observed this and casually remarked, "Oh, fleeing in disgrace, are we?"

With one foot already stepping out and the other paused, Xing Jun slightly tilted his head, sneering, "Fleeing in disgrace? What a joke, nothing has ever scared Xing Jun yet." Saying this, he walked over to stand beside Zhou Tongxuan...

Luo Xuping and Cheng Tianji exchanged a glance, having heard that a youth around their age would come. Unexpectedly, the newcomer turned out to be quite intriguing.

Xing Jun folded his arms, chin slightly raised with indifference, yet internally furious; on their first encounter, this kid already gained the upper hand — no way, he needed to turn the tables!

Yes, to turn the tables, and leaving only after doing so wouldn’t be too late!

Zhou Tongxuan’s mouth twitched; with the blink of an eye, these youths had already faced off a round. He thought he better hurry inside and leave Xing Jun to Doctor Bei for her headache.

Smiling, Zhou Tongxuan nodded at Luo Yirui, who returned a smile, appearing like a little adult, yet his demeanor was earnestly serious. While wanting to laugh at this, Zhou Tongxuan suppressed the urge, thinking it impolite, and proceeded inside.

Suddenly, what if wanting a child came up? He didn’t even have a girlfriend yet...

They passed through the courtyard, and those inside were already coming out — Beisitian stood on the steps smiling at Xing Jun, "Finally arrived."

Upon hearing those four words, Xing Jun felt warmth in his heart, Sister Bei was waiting for him!

From behind Beisitian, several individuals appeared one after another: a man who resembled a woman, a pretty girl about the same age, two old men, a middle-aged man, and a relatively normal-looking brother, but not the man named Tian Zhi he met in the village.

Everyone was curious about the new person and what he’s like, so pairs of eyes landed on Xing Jun, rendering him stiff with tension.

"Come in and talk." Beisitian said smilingly.

The rest promptly turned and went inside, Beisitian waited for Xing Jun and Zhou Tongxuan to enter together.

Zhou Tongxuan noticed Cheng Shuwei was present too, quickly addressing, "Leader!"

Cheng Shuwei nodded, "You may go back now."

Beisitian smiled, "They’ve just arrived, haven’t even had a sip of water, yet you’re sending them back. This is my home; at least let them have some water!"

Zhou Tongxuan, being a soldier, naturally had to obey orders, so he was about to politely decline Beisitian when Cheng Shuwei chuckled wryly, "Doctor Bei, what happened to my leader’s authority?"

Zhou Tongxuan hesitated; it seemed the leader was already quite familiar with Doctor Bei.

Ultimately, he stayed; after several refurbishments, the house wasn’t small, hosting so many people inside without feeling cramped.

Xing Jun sat upright, detecting that everyone who had been standing behind Sister Bei earlier was now all staring at him... Cold sweat formed at the tip of the youth’s nose; what was happening, was something on his face?
