"Today's classes are over. Let's go for a stroll," Xie Xie suggested enthusiastically, stretching.
Fang Yang smiled slightly and nodded, "Alright."
Xie Xie's suggestion was met with unanimous approval from everyone.
They arrived at a brightly lit street, which was exceptionally lively compared to other areas.
Faced with such a grand sight, everyone naturally stepped in with interest, curiously looking at the surrounding shops.
"Hey? What is this place?" Tang Wulin asked curiously.
Xie Xie leaned in to look. "Hey, this is a drink bar. Shrek City has drink bars too! How about we go in for a drink?"
"Yes, yes! I want ice cream," Xu Xiaoyan said excitedly, her eyes lighting up.
The rest of them nodded in agreement.
The drink bar was very lively, with at least eighty percent of the tables occupied, many of the customers wearing Shrek Academy uniforms.
Waiters moved through the crowd, busy but orderly.
Soft lighting, soothing music, and the students' laughter intertwined, creating a relaxed and pleasant atmosphere.
Fang Yang and his group walked into the drink bar and found an empty table to sit down.
Soon, a uniformed waiter walked over with a smile and handed them the menu.
"Hello, what can I get for the seven of you?" the waiter asked politely.
Her gaze swept over everyone, finally resting on Fang Yang, who was seated in the center.
Fang Yang took the menu, casually flipped through a few pages, then looked up at everyone. "What do you all want to drink?"
"I want a glass of iced lemon tea!" Xie Xie eagerly leaned in.
Tang Wulin thought for a moment. "I'll have a Sprite."
"I want ice cream and a chocolate milkshake!" Xu Xiaoyan blinked.
Gu Yue spoke calmly, "Ice cream."
Zhang Yangzi and Wang Jinxi exchanged glances and said in unison, "We'll have the same, two Cokes."
Fang Yang closed the menu and smiled at the waiter. "I'll have a glass of lemonade, that's all."
The waiter quickly jotted down the order and nodded politely. "Please wait a moment, we'll prepare them right away."
Not long after, the waiter came over with a tray. Everyone took their ordered drinks and chatted while enjoying them.
Girls always have no resistance to desserts like ice cream.
Even Gu Yue was no exception. As soon as the ice cream arrived, both girls happily started eating.
"Fang Yang, you try some too," Gu Yue offered Fang Yang a spoonful of ice cream she had just taken a bite of.
Fang Yang nodded and took a small taste.
"How does it taste?" Gu Yue asked expectantly.
Fang Yang smiled and nodded. "It's delicious."
Seeing this, Xu Xiaoyan also offered her chocolate milkshake.
Fang Yang smiled helplessly, but still took a sip through the straw.
"Is it good?"
Xu Xiaoyan asked, blinking, and subtly glanced at Gu Yue.
Fang Yang replied gently, "It's very good."
Tang Wulin and the others, seeing this, tacitly turned their faces away.
They didn't want to be forced to eat dog food; after all, besides Xie Xie, everyone else had partners.
Only Xie Xie poked at the lemon slice in his cup, looking dejected.
Tang Wulin, seeing this, patted Xie Xie's shoulder and said earnestly, "Xie Xie, you need to get used to it. After all, this kind of thing will happen often in the future."
Zhang Yangzi and Wang Jinxi clinked their Coke cups in understanding and exchanged smiles.
"Wu Lin, you…"
Xie Xie hesitated, then said, "Forget it, I'm not talking to you."
"What are you looking at?"
Tang Wulin took a sip of Sprite and nudged Xie Xie, who was looking around.
Xie Xie chuckled. "I'm looking to see if there are any pretty senior sisters or anything! To get out of being single, I have to seize the opportunity."
Tang Wulin shook his head, somewhat speechless, upon hearing this.
"What do you mean? You all have partners, so I can't find one?" Xie Xie said discontentedly.
Tang Wulin quickly waved his hand. "No, no."
Just then, a slightly arrogant voice came from the next table: "Waiter, please come here!"
Fang Yang and his group, enjoying their iced drinks and food, couldn't help but look over at the sound.
Then, a young woman in a uniform quickly walked to the next table.
She was wearing a black long dress with a white vest, the standard uniform of the drink bar.
The young woman had fair and delicate skin, short chestnut-red hair, and large, sparkling black eyes. She was exceptionally beautiful, even possessing a delicate, pitiful aura.
"Is that… Yuanen Yehui?"
Fang Yang's gaze fell on her, and his heart stirred slightly.
This was the owner of the twin spirits, the Titan Giant Ape and the Fallen Angel.
"Hmm?"
As if sensing Fang Yang's gaze, the young woman's eyes quickly found the source of the stare.
When her gaze met Fang Yang's, Yuanen Yehui paused slightly, then offered a polite smile.
In her perception, Fang Yang's strength was unfathomable, giving her an immeasurable sense of pressure.
Although she couldn't accurately judge his strength level, she was sure that his strength was absolutely extraordinary.
"Woman, give me your Spirit Communication number!" the previous voice rang out again, arrogant, domineering, and overbearing.
The speaker was a boy of about fifteen or sixteen, dressed in a white suit, with handsome features.
He had shiny golden short hair and rare dark-gold pupils, exuding a strong aura of light, which made him particularly eye-catching.
"I'm sorry, that's not part of my job," Yuanen Yehui replied calmly, bowing slightly, to the golden-haired boy's unreasonable request.
"Is this your service attitude? Get your manager for me!"
Le Zhengyu slammed his hand on the table, spilling drinks everywhere.
Fang Yang, seeing this, couldn't help but say, "Xie Xie, this guy is even more obnoxious than you."
Tang Wulin nodded at this. "Indeed."
"You guys…"
Xie Xie looked wronged. "I'm just a little arrogant, but I don't bully men or women or commit all sorts of evil deeds."
"That's true, I guess," Tang Wulin said, thinking for a moment.
Zhang Yangzi and Wang Jinxi, hearing this, also remembered something. "Fang Yang, weren't you and Wu Lin the two who fought at Eastsea Academy when it first opened?"
"Yes," Fang Yang nodded.
"I was almost bullied back then, but luckily I had a little bit of strength."
"Uh…"
Tang Wulin remained silent.
Xie Xie's face was full of disbelief, and he thought to himself, "You call that 'a little bit of strength'? He and Zhou Changxi were beaten so badly back then."
"No wonder our First Class was missing a person back then. So they were assigned to Fifth Class," Zhang Yangzi said, realizing.
"Yes, that's right."
