Chapter 20.1 – Yan Feng’s Unusual Hobby

Nian Bing shook his head, saying, “At least right now I won’t. But when I do go back to the Pure Wind House, I most certainly will not be in this kind of position.”

Luo Rou smiled slightly and said, “Today can be regarded as your win, but not for long. When I know everything about you, I will make you accept total defeat.”

Nian Bing assumed a terrified expression. “I already sincerely wish to concede. Miss, don’t make things any harder for me.”

Luo Rou snorted and said, “Are you disdaining to fight me, a little girl?”

Nian Bing smiled slightly and said, “I would not dare. It is only because I have no time to fight with Miss. If Miss has the ability to enter the Mage Association LIbrary, then she can find me anytime. For at least one month, I will not leave the Mage Association.”

“Saying this means you accept my challenge. Good, let me show you out.” Having said this, without waiting for Nian Bing’s response, she took the initiative to pull him by the hand and walk out side-by-side.

The night was clear and cold, like water; the air was especially fresh and clean. Luo Rou pulled Nian Bing onto the small road in the courtyard and slowly walked outside. They were like a pair of lovers. With a beauty to one side, Nian Bing felt relaxed and comfortable, yet he did not have even the barest sliver of desire. “Nian Bing, shall we make a bet?” Luo Rou said with a small smile.

Although she spoke very easily, Nian Bing could feel the edge embedded within. “A bet? Sorry, I am not a gambler.”

Luo Rou said, “Do you not dare? Are you scared of losing to me?”

Nian Bing smiled slightly. “To ask a general is not as effective as exciting a general. If it’s provocation issued by the Wise Girl, I’m afraid there isn’t a single person who could escape. No harm in hearing you out. What kind of bet are you making?”

Luo Rou said, “We will bet for one month. If in a month, I fail to discover your true identity, then it will be considered my loss. If I do find out, then it will be your loss. How about it?”

Nian Bing looked at Luo Rou, saying, “Don’t you already know my real identity? I am not concealing anything, or rather, this is better; for you to find out my identity is truly too difficult a task, the difficulty almost borders on the impossible. We’ll bet on my occupation, only if you can find out my real occupation and offer sufficient evidence, will it be regarded as your win. What shall we bet?”

Luo Rou smiled a little, saying, “Okay, we will go with your terms. That said, you definitely aren’t just a simple mage. If I win, you must agree to one of my conditions, and conversely, I will agree to one of your conditions.”

Nian Bing said somewhat jokingly, “This conditions you speak of is too vague. If I win and I wanted Miss to become my wife, don’t tell me you would agree?”

Luo Rou released Nian Bing’s hand and laughed like silver bells. “Of course those sort of conditions are not possible, however, it would be amazing if you could beat me. I’ve bet with other people before and I’ve never lost. I’ve brought you here; I will go back – there are still many guests waiting for me. We will definitely see each other again. When you lose, you are not allowed to act shamelessly.”

Seeing Luo Rou’s receding back, Nian Bing could only helplessly laugh. He did not think that he would break away from Xue Jing, only to be provoked into this mess. Wise Girl Luo Rou would not be as easily handled as Xue Jing. He only hoped that the month would end quickly, and he would finally leave this chaotic place.
