Chapter 458: A Tough Girl!

Just when Zhao Yanzi was about to go around the silver motorcycle in annoyance, she saw Hao Ren. Like a little bird that suddenly became happy, she was overwhelmed with joy.

She swung on her backpack and ran out the gates. Then, she opened the door of the Ferrari and sat down.

The high school student on the motorcycle was shocked.

His improved Yamaha motorcycle was worth tens of thousands of yuan, and it was something he could use to show off at the school. However, it was nothing compared to a Ferrari!

This high school student tried to maintain his cool composure on the motorcycle, but he could only quietly watch Zhao Yanzi fly into the Ferrari like a little bird.

Every student at the gate, regardless of their grades, witnessed how Hao Ren picked up Zhao Yanzi in a Ferrari.

"That's Zhao Yanzi's boyfriend..."

"How rich..."

"A spoiled second-generation rich kid... but he's actually pretty handsome."

"It's my first time seeing this. I heard that they kissed in front of the academic building."

"Your news sources are so old. He already came to our school many times. I heard he goes to City North First High school."

Gossips quickly spread at the school's front gate.

As the engine of the car roared, Hao Ren started the Ferrari and drove away.

Zhao Yanzi looked as happy as a blooming flower. She hugged her backpack and leaned against the car seat.

"How were your exams?" Hao Ren asked her.

"They went ok," Zhao Yanzi responded lazily.

Since she finished all her exams, she didn't want to think about it anymore; Zhao Yanzi was that type of person.

She closed her eyes and relaxed as the wind blew against her face. She tightened her legs and raised her arms high to stretch.

"Hey." Zhao Yanzi suddenly opened her closed eyes and turned to ask Hao Ren, "Why did you suddenly come to pick me up?"

"Your mom told me to pick you up," Hao Ren answered.

Zhao Yanzi suddenly pouted and looked extremely unhappy.

"I'm just joking." Hao Ren looked at her expression and couldn't help but laugh. "I'm picking you up because I want to."

Zhao Yanzi looked over with her peripheral vision as she doubted his words.

Ring, ring, ring, ring... Her phone in her bag suddenly rang, and she put her hand in her bag to pick it up. "Mom!"

"Where are you. I don't see you at the front gate," Zhao Hongyu said through the phone.

"Mom! Uncle, um, Hao Ren already picked me up!" Zhao Yanzi responded.

"Oh, I was wondering why you disappeared. I thought you went to karaoke with your classmates again. Then, I'm just going to go home. Ask Ren to come over for dinner tonight," Zhao Hongyu sighed and hung up.

She knew that Zhao Yanzi finished her exams today, so she came to pick her up from school. She never thought that Hao Ren would be one step ahead of her.

Zhao Yanzi put her phone back in her bag. Then, she turned to Hao Ren and finally believed that he came to pick her up at his own will.

Hao Ren not only washed his car, but he also cleaned himself up nicely. He was wearing a black and white shirt, which made him look very classy, and his clean hair that was a little messy looked shiny.

There was one word that could be used to describe Hao Ren today, and that was 'handsome'.

At Zhao Yanzi's age, it was only natural for her to be a little vain. She was delighted when Hao Ren dressed up and drove the Ferrari to pick her up.

She didn't care if Hao Ren caused an uproar when he appeared.

Exams were now over, and summer had started. No one would remember this two months later!

"Where should we go?" Hao Ren asked her while driving.

"Let's play games!" Zhao Yanzi said as her eyes lighting up.

She knew that Hao Ren had his university exams next week, but playing was definitely more important for her right now!

"Ok..." Hao Ren knew what games Zhao Yanzi was talking about. He lightened pressed his foot on the gas pedal, and the Ferrari drove toward the city center.

Hao Ren parked on the road across the Friendship Business Building, and the two getting off the car and walking towards the building attracted much attention.

The Ferrari was very eye-catching. Also, Zhao Yanzi was wearing a school uniform and backpack, so it naturally attracted attention as well.

Her light blue school uniform fluttered a little in the wind, and the tag that said, 'Grade Eight, Class Two2, Zhao Yanzi', was on her chest.

The guys who were about Hao Ren's age were very jealous of him because he was with such a young and energetic girl.

"Such an animal..." They glared at Hao Ren and cussed on the inside.

"Let's go! Let's go!" Zhao Yanzi was looking to relax after her exams, so she pulled Hao Ren toward the basement of the Friendship Business Building.

Since it was Friday evening, there were quite a lot of young people at the arcade park at the Friendship Business Building. Zhao Yanzi pulled Hao Ren into the building and quickly took off her name tag before throwing it in her bag.

However, the design of her school uniform exposed her identity as a middle-schooler immediately.

Hao Ren took out 100 yuan to exchange for gaming tokens, and he gave half to Zhao Yanzi.

However, Zhao Yanzi wasn't interested in drumming and dancing games. Instead, she liked fighting games. She went straight over to Street Fighter and inserted multiple tokens.

The man who was smoking and playing the game smoothly saw the new challenger next to him. He pounded on the keys with his right hand and chose three characters.

Zhao Yanzi stared at the screen for a while and chose three female characters.

"Uncle, help carry this for me!" Zhao Yanzi handed her backpack to Hao Ren. Then, she stared at the screen with intense focus and decided on the order of her characters for the fight.

"Ready, go!"

Zhao Yanzi held the joystick with the left hand and moved it swiftly, and her left hand was on the keys. Pa, pa, pa, pa! Her fingers moved quicker than if she were playing the piano.

The man who was smoking couldn't even hold the cigarette in his mouth anymore. The cigarette dropped to the ground, and the man put his right foot on the chair. He leaned extremely close to the machine and tried his best.

"You, win!"

Zhao Yanzi easily beat the opponent.

The man turned around and looked at Zhao Yanzi only to find out that the person who beat him was a little girl who was still in middle school, and this girl even looked exceptionally pure!

"Uncle, want to play?" Zhao Yanzi asked as she turned and looked at Hao Ren.

Hao Ren shook his head as he held her pink backpack by the side.

He understood that 'play games' did not mean gaming at an internet café to her. However, he didn't think Zhao Yanzi would be so good at street fighting games; it didn't fit her personality. Instead, it made her look like a young gangster-like girl.

From how smooth she was with the controls, one could tell that she came here often.

From the King of Fighters 97 to Street Fight, and from the Last Blade to Samurai Spirits, Zhao Yanzi played them all. Only a few who were really masters could beat her. Otherwise, she beat them all.

"Uncle, why are you just watching me!" Zhao Yanzi won the last fight and looked at Hao Ren with a little bit of discontent.

"That's because I can't beat you," Hao Ren said.

Hao Ren looked around and saw that many guys were staring at him with hostility. Zhao Yanzi went down the line and defeated the guys in order. It was quite provoking.

"Ok. Let's go play something else!" Zhao Yanzi said happily as she dragged Hao Ren to another row of arcade machines.

This row was made up of vertical shooter games. Hao Ren was better at these, so he sat down at one of them.

Dang, dang, dang... Zhao Yanzi put a few gaming tokens in the machine and chose a plane.

Hao Ren chose another plane, and the two planes they chose appeared on the screen.

"I'm for sure better than you at this," Hao Ren said. He used to go and play these games with his friends in middle school, so he was confident that his method of avoiding bullets was superior.

However, as the game progressed, he realized that it wasn't the case.

"Dummy! I have to go and save you!"

Zhao Yanzi dodged the raining bullets easily and then went to help Hao Ren to fight off the enemy in front of him.

More and more people came over to watch them play as this game was incredibly difficult. In the last stage, the bullets filled the screen, so it was an incredible thing to see.

"Dummy! Use the bomb!" Zhao Yanzi was controlling her own plane but couldn't help but reach over to Hao Ren's controls.

Hao Ren was flustered when he saw a screen full of bullets, but Zhao Yanzi didn't care how many people were watching him and kept calling him 'dummy'.

Bang... It was the sound of the last giant-sized boss plane exploding, and Zhao Yanzi had carried Hao Ren and successfully beaten the game.

"Wow" The crowd behind exclaimed.

Zhao Yanzi smiled with joy.

She picked up her bag and then dragged Hao Ren toward another row of games by grabbing his wrist.

Hao Ren was no match for her, but they coordinated well.

"There's too much pressure playing with you. I'll just go buy us some drinks." Hao Ren wiped off the sweat in his palms and walked over to the service desk to buy some drinks.

Just when Hao Ren brought back two bottles of drinks, He saw a bald man who was sitting next to Zhao Yanzi and trying to talk to her.

"Drinks!" Hao Ren put the two bottles of drinks on the control station of the arcade machine.

"You..." The bald guy stared at Hao Ren viciously. He was just about to stand up when Hao Ren put his right hand on the former's shoulder, forcing him to sit down.

"I told you that my boyfriend is really strong!" Zhao Yanzi rolled her eyes at this bald man, and she also knocked on his head with her fist.

She was holding half a bag of gaming tokens, and they left marks on this bald man's head.

Then, Zhao Yanzi kicked the man's chair, and the chair slid half a meter away, causing the bald man to fall onto the ice-cold floor.

Seeing how swift Zhao Yanzi's movements were, Hao Ren knew it wasn't a good idea to get on her bad side. If it weren't for Zhao Hongyu keeping an eye on Zhao Yanzi, Hao Ren would probably get his butt kicked by Zhao Yanzi a long time ago at home.

The bald man fell to the ground, and a few other men came over, surrounding them. Hao Ren held two fists and aimed at their chests, scaring them off.

Then, Zhao Yanzi carried her backpack and left this area that was filled with smoke with Hao Ren.

Before Zhao Yanzi lost her dragon core, she was at Zhen-level. Therefore, she was not a bit scared of these gangsters.

Outside the fighting and war arcade machine were multiple player arcade machines, and there were many games designed for couples.

Hao Ren looked at the many gaming tokens he and Zhao Yanzi had left and asked, "Do you want to..."

"Who would play these childish games..." Zhao Yanzi immediately responded.

Hao Ren almost felt like crying. He actually wanted to play, but he was called childish by a middle-schooler......

Zhao Yanzi grabbed the gaming token from Hao Ren and gave both her and Hao Ren's tokens to a girl who looked nice. "Here you go!"

That girl held the two bags of gaming token as she was incredibly confused.

Zhao Yanzi dragged Hao Ren into the arcade park but then dragged him out.

The upper floors of the Friendship Business Building had many retail stores, so Hao Ren thought for a bit and asked, "Why don't I buy you some clothes?"

Zhao Yanzi rolled her eyes at Hao Ren and said, "Who wants to buy clothes? I'm hungry, and I want to go home and eat dinner!"

"Sigh..." Hao Ren let out a light sigh and pulled her out of the building.

Zhao Yanzi was slim, but she was starting to grow taller. Even though she wore her school uniform, one could see her nice body shape. She was at the age where she didn't have to care about accumulating body fat, so she didn't need to bother with diets. Also, Zhao Yanzi was a great athlete at school.

Her ponytail was neither short or long, and it swayed as she walked. No one could have thought that this middle school girl who looked like a good student just beat so many guys at arcade games.

A few young people were looking at the parked Ferrari and thinking who it belonged to.

Hao Ren led Zhao Yanzi over to the car, and they opened the door and went in. The bystanders all looked at them with shock.

Hao Ren turned the steering wheel, and the car dashed out of the parking spot. The Ferrari that was very expensive was indeed different when bring driven.

"Ah..." Zhao Yanzi exhaled deeply as she was extremely relaxed and put her bag on her lap again.

Hao Ren looked at her and thought, "If she puts half the effort that she invested into gaming on learning, I won't need to tutor her."

However, he was quite happy when he thought about their gaming experience just now. They had played a full hour on a vertical plane shooting game, and all the little things such as how Zhao Yanzi complained and how she smiled made it interesting.

"She doesn't only have shortcomings..." Hao Ren stopped at a red light and turned over to look at the left side of Zhao Yanzi's face.

There was a loose red string near her neck, and Hao Ren didn't think much and reached out for it.

Pa!

Zhao Yanzi hurried and slapped away Hao Ren's hand.

A breeze blew by, and Hao Ren suddenly realized that the direction his hand was moving toward was her chest...

"What is hanging around your neck?" Hao Ren asked awkwardly.

Zhao Yanzi looked down and pulled the red string out. At the bottom of the string hung a jade pendant.

Hao Ren reached for the jade pendant and looked closely.

He felt how smooth it was on one side and saw the lion-head carving on the other. The carving was very delicate and well done, and it was also filled with nature essence.

This jade pendant was the one that Zhao Yanzi got from Duan Yao. If one wore this jade pendant while cultivating, it could help with both the concentration and the cultivation speed.

Di, di, di!

The car behind them honked.

Hao Ren saw that the red light in front of them had turned green, and he also saw the driver behind them looking at him strangely from the rear-view mirror.

Hao Ren noticed how he was slanted toward Zhao Yanzi with his hand in front of her neck holding the jade pendant...

The seats blocked the real details of the situation, so the car behind them might have imagined a different scene...

Hao Ren's face turned half red, and he stepped on the gas pedal and dashed across the intersection.

"What are you beeping at!" Zhao Yanzi turned over and looked at the car behind them with discontent. It was good that she didn't figure out what was happening.

Just when Hao Ren was going to park on the street in front of Zhao Yanzi's house, he noticed that it was full already with tens of Mercedes from out-provinces parked there.
