Return of the Phoenix Lady

Chapter 52: Meet Again in Fengcheng

Returning to Fengcheng again, it was still the same as it was five years ago. I had thought I would only stay here for a year, but I didn't expect it to be five years already. Han Xing sighed a little as he stood in front of the city gate.

"Han'er, you must be tired! Why don't we just rest here for the night and then go to the academy? There's no rush anyway. There are still more than ten days left before registration! We'll definitely make it in time!" Shui Luochen looked at Han Xing with a flattering expression. In fact, he was tired from walking and wanted to rest. He was also a little depressed. Why didn't Han'er, who looked so fragile, complain of being tired after walking for so long? She must have been used to suffering in her childhood, so she was used to it. Thinking of this, a bit of pity appeared in his eyes when he looked at Han Xing.

"You are so useless! You are tired after walking for a short time, and you use your cousin as an excuse. You are not a man!" Han Xi exposed Shui Luochen bluntly.

Han Xing explained to Shui Luochen that Han Qingyu and Han Xi were Han Xing and Yingchen's aunt and cousin, and that her uncle had died early, leaving her family to seek refuge with relatives in the Mu Kingdom. Han Xing had initially collected the beasts in a silver chain.

After spending a few days together, and with both of them having straightforward personalities, it didn't take long for them to become familiar with each other and speak freely.

"You little bitch! What are you making a fuss about? Did I talk to you? Go away and cool down!" Shui Luochen kept his eyes on Han Xing and shouted.

"You...you little bastard! Get away from me! Stop pestering my cousin! Only people like you have that kind of interest, so don't lead my innocent cousin astray!" Han Xi glared at him and scolded him.

"What is that kind of interest? That is the most sacred and inviolable love! Do you understand? Do you understand? I think a tomboy like you will never understand it in your life! Besides, Han'er didn't reject me!" Shui Luochen gave Han Xi a rude look.

"You think you're the most sacred and inviolable? Humph~ Even if you beg me to understand, I still won't be happy! My cousin didn't refuse you out of respect. Don't take his courtesy as a blessing!"

"Ha you……"

"Let's just rest for the night in Fengyun Tower!" Han Xing suddenly interrupted Shui Luochen and said calmly. Don't listen to her calm voice, she was actually already furious inside. These two are too good at quarreling! I almost didn't hear them along the way. The quarrel made my head swell, especially since they were quarreling right next to my ears. If I had known this would happen, I would never have picked up such a "loudspeaker" in the first place.

"Okay, okay! Han'er, Brother Chen will take you there!" After saying that, he pulled her forward without waiting for Han Xing's reaction.

Yingchen behind them stared at their holding hands, and Han Xi frowned slightly.

Fengyun Tower

As Shui Luochen pulled Han Xing in, the Fengyun Tower, which had been bustling just a moment ago, suddenly fell silent. Coupled with the arrival of the two handsome men and beautiful women, Yingchen and Han Xi, the atmosphere suddenly became quiet to the extreme, and everyone looked at them with a little surprise.

Shui Luochen glared at the people around him unhappily, then turned around, still smiling at Han Xing and said, "Han'er, shall we go up to the private room on the second floor?"

Han Xing turned her head slightly and glanced at the hall. Everyone was looking at this place with a disgusted look. She pursed her pink lips with a little disgust and nodded slightly to Shui Luochen. Shui Luochen immediately called the waiter.

"Waiter, come to the private room." Shui Luochen took out a gold coin from somewhere and held it in his hand generously.

The waiter calmly glanced at the glittering gold coins and said in a calm tone, "Sir, I'm sorry, the private rooms upstairs are all booked. Why don't you stay in the lobby?"

"How can this be! I have a lot of gold coins. Are you afraid that I can't afford it? Don't waste time, take us to the private room on the second floor!" Shui Luochen mentioned his gold coins again, and Han Xing understood a little. No wonder those robbers would fall for such a kid. It turned out that he kept muttering about having gold coins, as if he was afraid that others didn't know. It would be strange if he didn't attract thieves.

"Hero, what I said is true. I know you're rich, but the private room has been booked. I can't just kick you out! Please forgive me, hero!" The waiter looked sincere and called him "Hero," which made Shui Luochen feel a little embarrassed. He stammered, "Then who booked the entire private room?" Han Xing mentally rated the waiter. Hmm! Not bad, this waiter passed. Ying Rui is really getting better and better at training talents! I wonder how he is doing now...

"It's someone from the Spirit Refining Guild..." The waiter hadn't finished speaking when he was interrupted by Shui Luochen's strange cry, "What? You mean the Spirit Refining Guild? Humph~"

Shui Luochen ignored the waiter's objection and dragged Han Xing up to the second floor.

Han Xing glanced casually and unexpectedly saw familiar faces: Jin Haoyu, Shangguan Lan'er, Ouyang Qianrong, Xu Bowen, and Xu Bowu. Five years ago, he had met them here from the Spirit Refining Guild. It was a complete coincidence to see them again five years later.

But since it is the Soul Refining Guild, how could there not be this multi-faceted team? His eyes swept over them calmly, and subconsciously, Han Xing did not like them.

Just when he was about to secretly go find the waiter, "Brother Han? Is that you?" Who else could this question, filled with secret joy and confusion, be but Jin Haoyu?

At this moment, Yingchen also came up.

"Brother Ying! It's really you! Come and sit down!" Jin Haoyu looked at the handsome boy who had often appeared in his dreams for the past five years, and his heart was filled with joy. Five years had passed, and the cute little boy had grown into a young man, and seemed even more attractive than before.

Han Xing naturally noticed the abnormality in Jin Haoyu's eyes. Feeling helpless, she wondered if she should change her appearance for fun. Sooner or later, she would get into trouble by showing off in public with such a face that would bring disaster to the country and the people.

Han Xing felt a little helpless, but compared to those people who stared at her with prejudiced eyes, this place was undoubtedly the best safe haven.

So, he turned around, raised his lips and smiled: "Haha! It's Brother Jin, long time no see."

Han Xing's chuckle made Jin Haoyu even more obsessed. However, even though he concealed his gaffe and thought no one had noticed, he didn't know that Han Xing had been seeing it all the time.

"I was wondering who was so unreasonable. It's true that birds of a feather flock together!" Ouyang Qianrong didn't know why she felt uncomfortable all over when she saw Han Xing. No matter how handsome she was, it might be because Han Xing had embarrassed her in front of her lover, so she spoke in a very stern tone.

"It's my little brother Han'er! He has grown up! He is getting more and more handsome. He is almost prettier than his sisters!" Shangguan Lan'er was jealous at first when she saw Han Xing, and then she was relieved. Fortunately, he was a boy. If he was a girl, who could compare to her?

What does "fast" mean? Anyone with eyes can see that Han Xing is thousands or tens of thousands of times more beautiful than them. Yingchen, Shuiluochen, Han Xi and others all thought so.

"Long time no see!" Xu Bowen greeted them with a smile, but everyone could see how forced his smile was. Meanwhile, Xu Bowu nodded at Han Xing and the others and turned away, looking disapproving.

Seeing the atmosphere was dull, Jin Haoyu tried to find a conversation, "Come and sit here! Brother Han, introduce your friend! Let's get to know each other!"

"My new friend is Luo Chen, this is Han Qingyu and her daughter Han Xi." Han Xing answered concisely.

"Oh, I see! By the way, Brother Han, where have you been training for the past five years?" Jin Haoyu really couldn't imagine where the person he had been secretly searching for for five years had gone.
