Chapter 24: Over a Million Views! The Wang Family's Great Embarrassment!
"Qingxue, Fenglan, after I leave, you two... won't start fighting, right?"
Faced with Lin Tianming's question, Ye Qingxue glanced at Fenglan and huffed, "That depends on whether someone keeps calling you her boyfriend in front of me!"
Fenglan, hearing Ye Qingxue's words, calmly responded, "Tianming has always been my boyfriend."
[Boyfriend or not, my desire to kill him remains unchanged. This title, even in a new life, cannot change!]
Listening to Fenglan's inner thoughts, Lin Tianming realized her current state was exactly like Ye Qingxue's two months ago.
Ye Qingxue, hearing Fenglan's deliberate provocation, coldly retorted, "Feng... Lan!"
Instantly, the temperature in the girls' dorm room plummeted to freezing, causing Lin Tianming to shiver unexpectedly.
Fenglan, although speaking little, was equally unyielding, her surroundings stirring with a fierce wind, making the room chaotic.
With raging winds and biting cold, Lin Tianming felt as if winter had arrived.
If these two joined forces, combining their abilities, wouldn’t they be the goddess of winter?
Unfortunately, they were now rivals, making any cooperation between them seem impossible.
Lin Tianming took a deep breath and forcibly pressed the standing girls back to their beds.
"You two should say less. You’ll be roommates for the next four years. Don't let a small matter escalate into a fight!"
After being pressed down, Fenglan and Ye Qingxue gradually restrained their respective powers.
Fenglan assured Lin Tianming, "Don't worry, I'm not that petty. As long as she doesn't make a move, I won't either."
Ye Qingxue, not wanting Lin Tianming to think she was unreasonable, added, "Tianming, you can leave without worry. I won't fight her."
Despite their words, Lin Tianming still doubted whether they could truly get along.
But as a guy, he couldn't stay in the girls' dormitory every day to watch over them.
He could only hope they would keep their promises and at least not fight in the dormitory full of people.
"I'm leaving now. You two must get along peacefully!"
After a final reminder, Lin Tianming left the girls' dormitory.
Taking out his phone to follow the school's directions and asking a few people along the way, Lin Tianming quickly found his dormitory building.
"Zizhu Court, this is the place!"
Finding his suitcase in the dorm supervisor's office on the first floor, Lin Tianming carried it directly to his room on the second floor.
Soon, Lin Tianming found his room.
Noticing the door was open, he guessed someone must have arrived before him.
Ready to meet his new roommate, Lin Tianming carried his suitcase inside.
"Hey? Someone’s here? Must be my roommate for the next four years! Hi there, I’m Chu Yunfei! Nice to meet you!"
As soon as he entered, Lin Tianming saw a tall, thin boy lying on a bed that was already made.
So thin... He's practically a bamboo stick...
That was Lin Tianming's first impression of the boy who introduced himself as Chu Yunfei.
"I'm Lin Tianming. We should get along well for the next four years!"
Lin Tianming introduced himself, calmly walking into the room.
Chu Yunfei sat up to see what Lin Tianming looked like. As soon as he saw Lin Tianming and heard his introduction, he got excited.
"Oh my god! I know you! I saw you at the entrance of the Imperial University! You’re the one who walked through the Lightning Wall without any defense and absorbed all the lightning from Professor Jiang Han's Lightning Wall! You're a freak! I can't believe my roommate is you!"
Listening to Chu Yunfei's words, Lin Tianming, while unpacking his suitcase and making his bed, chatted casually.
"That’s nothing special. Since we’ll be roommates for four years, you can call me Tianming, and I’ll call you Yunfei."
"Haha! Sure thing. Having a genius with an SSS-level talent like you as a roommate is a huge win for me! I’m an S-level fire element talent. By the way, Tianming, what exactly is your power? How could you absorb all the lightning from Professor Jiang Han's wall?
I was just lying in bed watching a video of you using a fire dragon to beat up a second-year student named Wang Jian. You're so strong! That guy's a level 25 fire element awakened one! And you beat him as a new student!"
Faced with Chu Yunfei's curious questions, Lin Tianming calmly replied, "My power is called God's Hand. Isn't it listed on the school website? You know my name, just look it up."
"That's not what I meant! I did look it up, and the website does say your power is called God's Hand, but I’ve never heard of such a power before. So what exactly does it do?"
Lin Tianming smiled, "It can copy other people's skills. Just a small trick, nothing compared to those with elemental powers like yours."
"Tianming, you’re being too modest! Excessive humility is just showing off! If it were a small trick, your God's Hand wouldn't be an SSS-level talent, you wouldn't be at level 15 as a new student, and you definitely wouldn't be able to beat a second-year student by ten levels!"
Chu Yunfei recounted Lin Tianming's battle achievements in detail, making Lin Tianming laugh.
This roommate of his was quite interesting!
But... he still thought Chu Yunfei was too thin!
He had never seen someone as thin as a bamboo stick before.
...
While Lin Tianming was bonding with his new roommate, the second-year student Wang Jian, who had been beaten up by Lin Tianming, had changed into new clothes.
However, his bald head, scorched by the fire dragon, still stood out.
"That’s what happened! Cousin, you have to stand up for me!"
"A new student beat you up? With your behavior, you must have provoked him and got beaten up in return, right? You’re such a disgrace to our Wang family! I have no time for your nonsense. If there's nothing else, stop bothering me!"
The woman Wang Jian called cousin, after hearing his complaints, impatiently scolded him.
Despite her scolding, the usually arrogant Wang Jian didn't dare show any dissatisfaction.
But he continued to plead, "Cousin, I’m still part of the Wang family. That kid not only beat me up but also burned my hair and clothes off in front of everyone, making me run back to the dorm naked. It’s such a disgrace! Please help me this once. It’s also to restore our family's reputation!"
Perhaps annoyed by Wang Jian's pleas, his cousin waved her hand, "Fine, you haven't even told me that new student's name."
Hearing this, Wang Jian knew she was about to take action.
He quickly said, "His name... is Lin Tianming!"
Upon hearing the name Lin Tianming, his cousin seemed to recall some past memories, uncertainly saying, "Lin Tianming... seems to be Fenglan's boyfriend from the Feng family..."
"Yes, yes! Cousin, you know him? Fenglan, the head of the Feng family’s daughter, said that new student Lin Tianming is her boyfriend!"
Wang Jian’s cousin narrowed her eyes slightly, "Do you have any photos of Lin Tianming? Let me see."
Embarrassed, Wang Jian admitted, "I don’t have photos... but there’s a video online of him beating me up... It’s got over a million views..."
Hearing that the video of Wang Jian being beaten had gone viral, his cousin glared at him, "You’ve really embarrassed our family this time! The Wang family has never been so humiliated!"
After a pause, she continued, "Show me the video."
Wang Jian quickly pulled out his phone, found the video of him being beaten by Lin Tianming, and, feeling ashamed, showed it to his cousin.
As the video, captured by a bystander, played on the phone, Wang Jian couldn’t bear to watch, but his cousin frowned as she watched.
So it’s him!
Turns out Fenglan’s boyfriend Lin Tianming was the same person who, in a previous life, ruined her reputation, and whom she had spent her entire life searching for!
