Ling Han only thought for a short while, and managed to figure out the key factor in this issue.

Li Hao managed to enter Hu Yang Academy, and was practically guaranteed a bright future ahead of him. The Zhu Clan had to be worried that Li Hao would experience a change of heart after witnessing the dazzling and extravagant lifestyle of the Imperial City, and so had Zhu Xue Yi follow him here.

However, this couple seemed to have finally broken through the last layer separating them, and their relationship has naturally proceeded smoothly. When Ling Han saw this, he nodded internally, happy for them as well.

"Big Brother Ling, I kept looking for you after I entered into the Academy, yet couldn't find you at all," Li Hao said, a little guilty.

Ling Han laughed loudly and joked, "You probably haven't spent too much time searching, right? Always lovey-dovey with Xue Yi, and so didn't manage to find me, right?"

Li Hao's face turned crimson. The feelings between himself and Zhu Xue Yi had only been a hazy, indistinct kind of affection, and neither of them had dared to speak of their feelings openly. After reaching the Imperial City, the two of them only had each other, and were very far away from home, so their affections naturally increased drastically, wanting nothing more than to cling to each other at all times.

"Big Brother Ling, you're always such a teaser!" Zhu Xue Yi said, acting like a spoiled child, dispersing the awkwardness Li Hao was feeling.

Li Hao smiled faintly. Li Hao was a bit wooden in character and slow in speech, while Zhu Xue Yi was much livelier. The two of them would be able to compensate for one another's shortcomings.

"Yi, poor fool?" it was at this moment that a light 'yi' was heard from behind them, and a young man quickly approached them. It was the young master of the Kong Clan. When he saw Ling Han, a cold smirk appeared on his face, and he said, "What a coincidence for me to see you here!"

He had been tricked out of a hundred silver coins by Ling Han. Though this paltry sum of money was nothing much to him, the crux of the matter was that he was displeased. However, due to the sudden interception of Xu Ke Xin, he did not manage to find Ling Han to settle this grudge.

"Young Master Kong, who's this guy?" a gorgeously dressed woman leaned closely and into Young Master Kong's arms, casting a coy glance at him.

"Oh, just a poor fool," Young Master Kong gave a wave of his hand, looking very disdainful.

"Who are you calling a poor fool?" Li Hao had the short temper of a young man and could not hold himself back from retorting.

Young Master Kong swept a glance over Li Hao and Zhu Xue Yi, and a contemptuous expression appeared on his face, as he said, "You have just recently arrived at the Imperial City, haven't you?"

"How did you know?" Li Hao blurted out.

"Haha, just look at the air of a country bumpkin surrounding you, I'm sure you must have come out from some rural, out-of-the-way place!" the contempt on Young Master Kong's face deepened, and as he stared at Zhu Xue Yi, he said, "However, this village girl does not look too bad. If properly dressed up, there might be still be a bit of worth playing with her."

"How dare you!" there was no way that Li Hao could tolerate his beloved being insulted like this, and immediately raised his fist in a punch towards Young Master Kong.

"Ah!" the beautiful girl instantly screamed.

"Step aside!" Young Master Kong shoved the beautiful girl to one side and raised his hands to receive Li Hao's attack.
