Chapter 53

A teacher wearing glasses saw Lin Yifan park his car at the school gate and timidly approached him, saying, "This student, you..."

Lin Yifan didn't even glance at him, got out of the car, and walked straight into the school.

Saya, standing beside him, was very puzzled. Lin Yifan just left the car there? Come to think of it, he did the same thing last time. It felt like the car was his summoning creature.

Wearing a Western-style dress, Saya Takagi stood out in the school. What puzzled the other students was that this girl, who usually had a bad attitude towards everyone and considered herself a genius, was actually following that delinquent exchange student around today.

"What's going on these days? First, there's a global riot, then a terrorist attack, and now even Miss Takagi is acting abnormal."

"Who knows? Maybe the weather is changing?"

The students passing by were chattering, but Lin Yifan didn't pay any attention.

He walked briskly towards the kendo club, and Saya Takagi, who was following behind him, couldn't help but shout, "Hey! Stop! Why did you bring me to school? Where are we going?"

"Didn't I say, you guess?" Lin Yifan replied in a very unscrupulous manner, making Saya Takagi tremble with anger.

They walked down the corridor, and under the students' gazes, they arrived at the kendo club entrance.

Stopping at the door, Lin Yifan held Saya and said, "Wait here."

"Why should I? I want to go in too!" Saya glared at him with gritted teeth, but Lin Yifan wasn't swayed, which infuriated her.

Pushing open the wooden door, Lin Yifan took off his shoes and stepped into the dojo.

In the middle of the dojo, Saeko Takagi sat motionless with her eyes closed, kneeling on the floor with a wooden sword placed horizontally between her legs.

Lin Yifan put down his backpack and was about to draw the Muramasa sword when—

"Hmph!"

Saeko Takagi moved in an instant, and Lin Yifan only saw a blur before he felt something hard pressed against his neck.

"Liar." Saeko Takagi bit her lip and placed the wooden sword on Lin Yifan's collarbone.

"Liar... liar?"

Saeko Takagi pressed the wooden sword forward, forcing Lin Yifan to the floor. She sat on his stomach, pressing down, and said expressionlessly, "A man's word is his bond. Why didn't you come this afternoon?"

Lin Yifan's eyelids twitched a few times, not expecting Saeko Takagi to be so eager for a fight. He had been delayed by some matters in the afternoon, but he didn't expect her to react so strongly.

However, Lin Yifan knew Saeko Takagi's character well and didn't argue. He said directly, "I broke my promise. You can punish me however you want."

"You said it." Saeko Takagi's face remained expressionless, but her eyes flashed with excitement.

"Of course." Lin Yifan understood that too much explanation would only make Saeko Takagi unhappy.

Saeko Takagi gradually released the wooden sword and looked at Lin Yifan with a half-smile. "I understand."

She got off Lin Yifan and picked up a wooden sword, offering it to him with both hands.

Hesitating for a moment, Lin Yifan reached out to grasp the wooden sword and felt a surge of wild energy!

The moment Lin Yifan grasped the sword, Saeko Takagi swung her wooden sword.

Lin Yifan reacted unusually quickly, blocking with his sword, and the two wooden swords collided with a loud sound.

Without hesitation, he rolled back to avoid Saeko Takagi's slash. She was so excited that her desire for combat had reached a pathological level.

The two wooden swords collided over a dozen times in just a few seconds, filling the dojo with the sound of "thud, thud, thud."

Lin Yifan couldn't gain any advantage against Saeko Takagi, but he was no longer being beaten to the ground. At least, this time he could make a decent counterattack, thanks to the six people he had just captured.

Saeko Takagi began to breathe heavily, her face flushed. Although she hadn't truly used any techniques against Lin Yifan, she hadn't held back in terms of strength. It felt great, the sensation of exerting her strength without restraint.

When the two wooden swords collided, the vibrations that returned to Saeko Takagi made her even more excited. The electric-like vibrations pulsed in her palms.

Exert, exert, and exert more!

Saeko Takagi's sword speed increased, her flushed face covered in sweat. Her originally cold expression gradually turned into a twisted smile of satisfaction.

Each fight was more intense than the last. The first time she fought Lin Yifan, she had knocked him down instantly. But now, Lin Yifan could actually block her full-strength slash.

Saeko Takagi's heart raced, and a strange feeling began to spread from a certain place.

A sentence stuck in Saeko Takagi's throat was finally forced out: "More, faster, stronger! Use your full strength and defeat me!"

After shouting this, Saeko Takagi, who was excited beyond control, jumped back and immediately performed a quick draw.

Lin Yifan, who was giving it his all, widened his eyes. The quick draw was too fast. Compared to the full-strength slash during their entangled combat, the quick draw was Saeko Takagi's ultimate skill!

The speed was so fast that it was almost invisible. Lin Yifan's mind had no time to react, and he only dodged instinctively.

The slash missed.

Surprise flashed across Saeko Takagi's face, but before Lin Yifan could counter, she forcibly changed direction and swept her wooden sword.

The two wooden swords collided, and the terrifying force caused them to break almost simultaneously with a loud crack.

The broken wooden swords fell to the ground, and Lin Yifan, who had been forced back a few steps, panted heavily. Saeko Takagi's chest also rose and fell slightly.

"I lost again." Lin Yifan threw away the broken sword and shook his head with a light laugh.

Although both of their swords were broken, Lin Yifan's stamina was exhausted, while Saeko Takagi knew how to conserve her energy. Throughout the fight, Lin Yifan had been on the defensive, being pressed by Saeko Takagi.

Lin Yifan was straightforward; if he lost, he admitted it.

Saeko Takagi, with a flushed face, looked at the remaining piece of the sword handle in her hand, as if she were still in a dream, blinking in disbelief.

"You... you've improved. Just this morning..."

Lin Yifan scratched his head awkwardly, but then Saeko Takagi pressed her index finger to his lips, pushing him to the corner of the wall.

Saeko Takagi breathed heavily, her hot breath brushing against Lin Yifan's face. With a flushed face, she said softly, "Don't talk."

"Uh..."

Her lips pressed against his, soft and warm.

Lin Yifan reached out to embrace Saeko Takagi's slender waist, and she instinctively trembled but didn't resist.

The two slowly sat down against the wall, with Saeko Takagi pressing Lin Yifan into the corner. At first, she only gave him a few light pecks.

Saeko Takagi was very shy. After each kiss, she would pull back, purse her lips, and then lean forward for another light peck.

Unable to hold back, as Lin Yifan's hand gradually moved upward, Saeko Takagi grabbed it. "No, this is school, and we're in the dojo..."

Saeko Takagi's behavior of kissing and then running away was driving Lin Yifan crazy, making his heart race.

How could Lin Yifan let her escape?

This time, Lin Yifan pressed Saeko Takagi down, pinning her to the smooth wooden floor. With a flushed face, Saeko Takagi's hair was disheveled, and her thin school uniform was pulled up, revealing her flat, toned abdomen.

The two looked at each other, and Lin Yifan prepared to continue.

"No, I said no." Saeko Takagi pushed Lin Yifan away again, struggling to move back and pull down her clothes to cover her tender skin.

Saeko Takagi, turning her head, rarely showed a shy expression.

"Why? You can't play with me like this, just a light kiss and then run away?"

Saeko Takagi bit her thin lips and shook her head slightly. "That's not what I meant... but you haven't defeated me yet."

"What?"

"You haven't defeated me." Seemingly finding a reason, Saeko Takagi mustered the courage to face Lin Yifan, but her flushed face made it hard to tell if it was from shyness or intense exercise.

"You... you should have said that earlier. Now I'm all fired up." Lin Yifan rubbed his forehead, looking helpless.

After adjusting her mood, Saeko Takagi, sitting in front of Lin Yifan, smiled lightly. "If I gave in so easily, would you still come looking for me?"

"How could I not..."

Saeko Takagi shook her head and tapped Lin Yifan's forehead with her index finger. "Don't think I just sit in the dojo all day. The other students say you're a delinquent."

Lin Yifan turned over and lay on the floor, panting. "Let them say what they want."

"Tomorrow... will you come again?" Saeko Takagi seemed to be addicted, asking Lin Yifan eagerly right after their fight.

"Of course I will."

A smile bloomed on Saeko Takagi's face. She lifted her hair and leaned down to kiss Lin Yifan. This sweet, sticky scene was seen by Saya Takagi and Hiraoka, who suddenly pushed open the door.
