But, the event that made countless young men in the Holy City dream and was a nightmare for Luo Feng happened again.
Scarlett walked straight toward him. Her presence was so powerful that everyone in her path moved out of the way.
However, there were some who didn't know better. A few guys from Dilin Academy, who were with Luo Feng, stared straight at Scarlett, especially Westing. Relying on his status as a member of one of the four minor families, he approached the little demoness: "Scarlett, I..."
Before he could finish his sentence, he was pushed away by an invisible force. The little demoness had a blank expression: "Do we know each other that well? Get lost!"
Westing's face turned awkward, and he was shocked.
Scarlett's power was indeed super strong!
After walking a few steps past Westing, the little demoness stopped: "Hehe, classmate Luo Feng, I'm glad we meet again!"
Hearing her words, Luo Feng felt like his head was about to explode.
It had to be said, Scarlett was still stunningly beautiful, a feast for the eyes. Her appearance and demeanor gave people a strong sense of pleasure. Even if one had no intention of pursuing her, no one would mind interacting with her.
Unfortunately, her ability to attract envy was proportional to her charm.
Almost instantly, everyone's attention was on Luo Feng. The girls were fine, but many of the boys looked at him with envy and jealousy, especially those from Dilin Academy, who were even more envious after their initial shock.
Westing's brows furrowed tightly. Who was that guy? Did Scarlett come here just for him?
The little demoness was definitely a headache and a disaster. Last time at Qiqi's roommate's birthday party, it was still manageable since there weren't many people. But now, in a public place, Luo Feng couldn't handle it.
However, out of politeness, he had to respond. So, Luo Feng smiled bitterly and said, "Miss Scarlett, is there something you need from me?"
"Nothing much," Scarlett said with a smile. "I just thought you might participate in the competition, so I came to cheer you on on the registration day. I'm glad I ran into you, Luo Feng. You have to do your best!"
Her smile was sweet, and her encouraging words were as warm as an angel's, but to Luo Feng, they sounded like a devil's curse. Every time Scarlett was nice to him, it triggered more envy.
Westing and the others, who were nearby, heard Scarlett's words clearly and their faces turned even uglier.
This couldn't go on. The goddess of the Holy City, who seemed to have a momentary lapse in judgment, kept popping up and saying strange things to him, especially in public places. He needed to understand what she was thinking and solve this problem, or it would be a constant source of trouble.
But this wasn't the place to talk. They should find a different setting.
"Thank you!" Luo Feng responded politely, then leaned close to her ear and whispered, "Miss Scarlett, if it's possible, can we talk somewhere else?"
Scarlett and Luo Feng had been roommates for two and a half years, and they were used to all kinds of intimate gestures. Luo Feng leaning close to speak to her didn't bother her, but it looked different to others. After all, Westing had been pushed away by her aura before he even got within a meter.
This casual gesture seemed to highlight Scarlett's special treatment of this unremarkable boy, which was already enough to make people envious. But then, Scarlett said excitedly, "A date? Great, I'm in!"
A date? Scarlett actually accepted a date with someone, and she looked so happy!
Everyone was stunned, unable to believe their ears.
Luo Feng almost fainted. He thought to himself, this lady is really reckless, not realizing how much damage her words can do. She even said it so loudly, completely disregarding my feelings!
However, the little demoness's self-centered style was well-known in the Holy City.
Helplessly, Luo Feng leaned close to Scarlett's ear again and whispered a time and place, then said, "Miss Scarlett, can you please not tell everyone else?"
"Hehe, of course. I'll be there on time tonight. See you there!" She winked at Luo Feng and then left, surrounded by people like a star.
After Scarlett left, Luo Feng felt even more uncomfortable. He could feel many people's gazes like knives, wishing to kill him. When Aaron returned, Luo Feng immediately dragged him away from the crowd.
Only after leaving the registration site did he let go of his roommate. Aaron complained, "Hey, did a ghost chase you? Why are you in such a hurry?"
"Nothing," Luo Feng mumbled. He didn't know how to explain to Aaron. His roommate seemed to be one of Scarlett's admirers, and if he knew what had just happened, he would definitely be unhappy.
He decided to talk to Scarlett first, then explain to Aaron.
At the testing site, Westing's face was ashen as he watched Luo Feng leave. "Who is that guy?"
A young man beside him suddenly remembered something: "Luo Feng? Ah, I've heard that name. At a woman's birthday party in the magic department of Saint De Academy, Scarlett appeared at a venue under the Si family and was friendly to this Luo Feng, even though they didn't know each other before. Many people found it strange at the time. They thought it was just a whim, but now it doesn't seem so simple. Could it be that Scarlett really likes that guy? Who is he? What charm does he have? If anyone, it should be you, Westing!"
With each word, Westing's face grew darker.
Kid, no matter who you are, because of you, I, a member of one of the four minor families of the Holy City, was publicly humiliated. If I don't get revenge, how can I face anyone?
"Very well, I'll also participate in the competition!"
After dinner, Scarlett took a good bath and tried on several outfits. Despite her already flawless figure, which looked good in anything, the little demoness was very picky. After much deliberation, she finally chose a knee-length floral skirt, which was less playful and more elegant.
After putting on the skirt, Scarlett styled her hair in a unique way. When she saw her reflection in the mirror, she was taken aback.
She never cared about dressing up. She usually just grabbed whatever clothes were handy, and her hairstyles were casual, often just a simple ponytail or loose hair. Today, she was so particular about her appearance.
Obviously, it was for tonight's date.
Pfft, why am I so dressed up? It's just a casual date I accepted to make him uncomfortable.
Besides, I'm so charming that I don't need to dress up!
But despite her explanation, she felt a strange, indescribable feeling.
Scarlett wanted to mess up her hair and change out of the floral skirt, but after some hesitation, she didn't do it.
Forget it, let him enjoy the sight of me at my best!
Hmm, the agreed time is almost here. I can go out now.
Thinking this, Scarlett left the room, humming a cheerful tune. Despite her casualness, her voice was like a heavenly melody, very pleasant to hear.
"My daughter, you seem to be in an unusually good mood today. Did something good happen?"
The figure of the Supreme appeared in the castle, looking at Scarlett. Spike even laughed: "Am I seeing things, or did the sun rise in the west?"
He was referring to Scarlett's special effort to dress up. The little demoness blushed: "Old man, what are you talking about? Can't I, as a woman, make myself a bit prettier sometimes?"
"Of course, and I'm glad to see you like this," Spike smiled. "But, my daughter, I don't believe you do this without a reason. Can you tell your father?"
"No reason, just a whim. Mind your own business!" Scarlett shouted and flew out of the castle.
Watching her butterfly-like figure, Spike's eyes were full of affection.
Hehe, it seems my proud and aloof princess is starting to show a softer side. I wonder who made her change.
Could it be that boy?
