Chapter 566: Chapter 566: Viewing the House
Fu Yunhe’s careful thoughts were clear to Nian Shutong.
Walking in front, Nian Shutong felt that she should give Fu Yunhe a reassurance pill before leaving this place.
Recently, Fu Yunhe had been acting a bit strangely.
However, having watched many romance movies and TV dramas, Nian Shutong didn’t find anything wrong.
After all, in those dramas, the female or male lead would do some incredible things for the unclear feelings of the other, which is called being lovestruck.
Fortunately, when something happened, Fu Yunhe’s lovestruck brain wasn’t too obvious; it was just somewhat evident when the two of them were together.
But she guessed that once she gave an answer, Fu Yunhe’s lovestruck brain would end, all because she hadn’t given him a definitive response yet.
Walking behind, Fu Yunhe quickly caught up with Nian Shutong and stood beside her, saying, “I’ll go register first, then they will assign a time for the basic check-up. We can just come back at that time. We can go look at houses first.”
“When is the exam? Does the military academy allow you to live outside?”
Fu Yunhe shook his head and explained, “The academy doesn’t allow going out in the first three months after entering, but we need a place to stay, so we might as well buy one first.”
“As for the exams, they will be scheduled after everyone’s basic exams are done.”
Nian Shutong nodded in understanding and agreed. After all, both of them were not lacking in money; buying a house to keep wouldn’t be an issue.
Plus, she thought about how she always needed to come and check on Fu Yunhe.
Inside the academy, Fu Yunhe was completely different from his state on Blue Star; on Blue Star, he was relaxed, at ease, and casual.
He could banter with Ha Ha, spar with Rubble’s sharp tongue, chat idly with Elder Hua, and consult Master Fan on cooking. But at the academy, Fu Yunhe seemed to put on an icy mask.
A delicate-looking person, he had a quite unique aura. He appeared fragile, but with a cold demeanor, he gave off a feeling that he wasn’t easy to approach.
Yet this man was holding a soft and fluffy lamb in his arms, which didn’t quite match his icy demeanor.
What’s more important was, who was the woman beside him? This handsome man, when he looked at her, it was as if the icebergs began to melt, just to nourish one person.
Fu Yunhe’s outstanding appearance attracted a lot of attention, but that was it.
Looks might bring attention, but here, strength always came first. If his looks were combined with his exceptional abilities, one could imagine what Fu Yunhe’s popularity would be like.
Nian Shutong noticed the gazes from others, but she didn’t feel much about it.
Her view on love was simple and straightforward—if I like you, then you are mine when alive, and even your corpse is mine when dead.
Fu Yunhe, on the other hand, completely ignored the surrounding glances. He skillfully led Nian Shutong to the registration area, submitted all his documents, and received a time number card.
“That’s done, let’s go.”
“Okay.”
The two of them, blending into the crowd, headed towards the exit, but before they reached the door, a burst of cheering erupted.
“Look quick! That’s Wu Shan, Wu Family’s genius, said to have reached S-level!”
“My god, school hasn’t even started, and the gap is already so big.”
“Genius is different from us; we’re at most minor local talents.”
“Wu Shan is also very handsome.”
“It’s unfair, handsome and strong.”
“I heard that among this batch of enrollees, the strongest ones are Wu Shan and the Chi Family’s young genius.”
“The big families are really powerful.”
“Isn’t that the truth.”
Nian Shutong initially didn’t care about these matters, but upon hearing those two names, Wu Family and Chi Family, they were archenemies.
She glanced sideways at Fu Yunhe. Fu Yunhe gestured a peace sign and said, “Whatever you want me to do is fine, who says we have to keep a low profile.”
“When did you advance levels? I didn’t know about it.”
“Just one step away, the next level,” Fu Yunhe mouthed two words: Mutated.
Nian Shutong roughly understood; it was the merit of the Mutated Crystal Stone, plus Fu Yunhe had many top-grade crystal stones. He just had to cultivate again, and with his transformed body, his aptitude was not bad at all. Reaching this level was not surprising.
Such strength? No need to hide anymore.
The answer was no.
“Xiao He, perform well.”
“Roger that.”
The two communicated in a private language that others couldn’t understand and walked together towards the gate, coincidentally passing by Wu Shan.
Fu Yunhe’s outstanding appearance drew the attention of those focused on Wu Shan.
Even Wu Shan noticed but merely gave a disdainful glance before retracting his gaze.
In Wu Shan’s view, no one was worth his attention. He didn’t think anyone could rival him, as eighty percent of the students who graduated from military academy didn’t reach S-level.
He had reached that level as soon as he entered the academy. Besides that unfamiliar person from the Chi Family, there would be no other contender for him.
As they passed each other, no one cared.
Nian Shutong and Fu Yunhe had already walked out of the school gate and started looking for houses to buy.
While house hunting, Nian Shutong suddenly asked, “Didn’t you own several properties before?”
“I did, but without a will, they either became memorials or were reclaimed by the government.”
Nian Shutong looked at Fu Yunhe with slight frustration and said, “You’ve failed a bit, not even knowing to keep some personal property.”
“You’re right to criticize. I’ve learned this time. I’ll hide them, all under your name.”
“Smart.”
The two chatted and laughed as they arrived at a real estate agency, where they were warmly welcomed upon entering.
Those who dared to approach this house were definitely powerful.
Houses next to the Imperial Military Academy were ridiculously expensive; selling one could fund retirement.
“Please come in, what kind of house would you like to see?”
Fu Yunhe directly voiced his preference: “Close by, a standalone house with good privacy.”
A standalone house, big business.
The agent attending to them was even more courteous, leading them into a guest room and presented several house layouts for Fu Yunhe and Nian Shutong to choose from.
Fu Yunhe pushed the layouts towards Nian Shutong, slightly assertive as he said, “Choose the one you like.”
Nian Shutong looked at Fu Yunhe, not sure why, but felt that this line should have been hers.
Still, she earnestly reviewed the options. Considering they would spend a good period in the house, picking a better one was only fair to herself.
“Let’s look at this one.”
