Male superiority and female superiority: forced love

"Young Master, are you coming back now?" When Qu Er saw Qu Haoyue coming out, he immediately stood up and went to greet him.

"What? My mom's pushing me?" Qu Haoyue frowned. His life now was much harder than back home. At Songshan Academy, he had to register for every visit, lecture, and class. He also had to do homework after school each day. The passages he had to memorize were longer than his belt, and the length of his writing was at least 500 words. He didn't think Liangcheng was "beautiful" at all.

"No...no." Qu Er quickly glanced at the young master's friends and swallowed back what he wanted to say.

"Brother Qu, I'll go to Wangyue Tower first. See you tomorrow." Wang Mingfan patted his shoulder knowingly, smiled, exchanged a few words, and left.

After the people walked away, Qu Haoyue turned to Qu Er and said unhappily, "You can tell me now."

Qu Er laughed innocently twice, still a young master, and then replied, "Qu Yi came just now and said that Master Dong from Songshan Academy would be coming at 5 pm, and Madam asked you to go back early."

Master Dong is coming?

Qu Haoyue was shocked and asked quickly, "What's the matter?"

Dong Fugu specializes in teaching the meaning of the classics. I've done quite well in this subject, consistently achieving top marks. It doesn't seem like there's anything he should bother visiting me for, right?

"This... Madam didn't say anything. Young Master, the time is almost up, let's go back quickly." Qu Er tried his best to persuade him. He had wanted to go to the building to find the young master, but he was worried about spoiling his fun, so he waited until he came out.

"I have something else to do, so I'll go back later. You go first."

No one visits you for no reason. The Master’s sudden visit is definitely not a good thing.

"Master, what else do you want?" Qu Er was completely confused. What could be more important than the Master's visit?

"Didn't you see Wang Mingfan asked me out just now?" Qu Haoyue fanned herself, glanced at him, and turned away.

After three breaths, Qu Er suddenly reacted and hurriedly shouted at the young master's back: "Young master, what are you going to say when I get back?"

Qu Haoyue didn't look back. He stretched out his arm holding the fan and shook it gently twice, leaving Qu Er alone in the wind.

On the street, many young girls cast interested glances at Qu Haoyue, and some of them quietly followed him, secretly looking for opportunities to meet him.

The Qu Haoyue today is no longer the “original” Qu Haoyue.

Ever since he learned that the whole city was looking for Ruan Chuyin, his slightly plump face became increasingly thinner. In half a month, he lost a full 15 kilograms.

His face now had clear contours and was shaped like an oval, and his features suddenly became extremely profound.

Looking closely, he had thick eyebrows, large eyes, long eyelashes, a high nose bridge, and rosy lips. His indigo satin robe perfectly outlined his slim waist. Add to that his stature, and the folding fan in one hand, and he looked like a dashing, elegant man from every angle.

In Wushui Town, everyone, young and old, regardless of gender, avoided him like the plague. His mother arranged every blind date, and no woman ever took the initiative to approach him. But things were different now. When he walked down the street, heads turned, and his encounters with women skyrocketed.

At this moment, a woman in pink was walking towards him and stopped right in front of him.

"Sir, do you know how to get to Liangyun Street? I want to go to Dongkelai there." The woman in pink asked.

She was not tall, only reaching Qu Haoyue's shoulders, but her appearance was very beautiful. There was a hint of bookishness between her eyebrows and eyes, and the curve of her lips was neither too high nor too low, making anyone who saw her feel very friendly.

Forehead. . .

Qu Haoyue looked at the "little guy" in front of him and unconsciously took a step back, fearing that he would accidentally knock the person away.

"Donglei is not on Liangyun Street. It's the building at the back with lanterns hanging on the second floor." He turned sideways and pointed to the big restaurant not far behind him and replied in a flat tone without any unnecessary emotional fluctuations.

Cai Lei was slightly taken aback. Was she not expressing herself clearly enough, or was she just not attractive enough to his eyes? Why didn't this handsome man react at all?

Shouldn't I take the opportunity to introduce myself and invite her to dinner at the restaurant?

"Girl, do you... have anything else to say?" The woman was blocking his way and didn't move, so he kindly asked another question.

Cai Lei came back to her senses instantly, looking a little embarrassed.

After failing to strike up a conversation the first time, she couldn't help but look at the handsome man carefully again.

Her skin was as white as jade. She wore a blue shirt and looked very imposing. Her thick black hair was half-tied in a golden crown. Her eyes were like two huge obsidian stones, fluttering under her curled eyelashes. She was extremely beautiful.

And his stylish sword-like eyebrows, curved and thick, like a carefully engraved treasure, with clean outlines and no redundant hair, and the two obsidian stones underneath made them appear even brighter and clearer.

He was very tall and looked very powerful standing in front of her, like a safe haven that could dispel all her anxieties and fears.

Her two long legs were as straight as if they were drawn with a paintbrush. She walked with a breeze and her clothes fluttering, and there was an unrestrained elegance that could not be ignored.

From a distance, Cai Lei was drawn to Qu Haoyue's unique aura. Every one of his facial features was in line with her aesthetic.

The rhythm of my heartbeat in my chest became faster and faster, and my desire to meet a handsome man became stronger and stronger.

"Sir, what is your name? My name is Cai Lei. I just arrived in Liangcheng two days ago and am not very familiar with this place. I'm going to Dongkelai for dinner right now. If you are free, why don't we go together? It's just a thank you for showing me the way." Cai Lei flirted openly. The more she looked at Qu Haoyue, the more satisfied she became. Dad was right, there are so many handsome men in Liangcheng! She really should have come here sooner!

"Um... it's just a small favor, not worth mentioning. Forget about the meal, I just came out of Dongkelai. I appreciate your kindness... Bye!" Qu Haoyue declined politely, fearing to have anything to do with her.

When he was fat, no one liked him. Now that he's thin, he's having a lot of romantic encounters. It's a pity he's already got someone in his heart, otherwise he might have taken the bait.

Qu Haoyue moved slightly to the right and strode forward without even giving the girl a glance.

"Cai Lei, Cai Lei, strange, why does this name sound so familiar?" He muttered silently in his heart, trying hard to search for the remaining memories in his mind.

Suddenly, his eyes flashed.

The only daughter of Cai Zhiyuan, the dean of Songshan Academy, is named Cai Lei. I heard that this girl has been raised in Sihe Town and will come to the academy to study next month.

It can't be such a coincidence!

Thinking of this, I couldn't help but quicken my pace.

Cai Lei pouted and looked at the handsome man's back as he walked faster and faster, her eyes full of grievance.

She was known as the most beautiful woman in Sihe Town, and she had always been confident in her looks. Now that she was in Liangcheng, she couldn't even attract a single handsome man. What a failure! Suddenly, she missed the idyllic days she had in Sihe Town.

Qu Haoyue walked aimlessly on the street, glancing at the stalls on both sides without any interest at all.

"Sir, would you like some tea?" A waiter came forward enthusiastically and invited him in.

Qu Haoyue was about to refuse when he suddenly caught sight of the four large characters "Ming Yue Tea House" engraved on the plaque. He froze for a moment before saying, "What kind of tea do you have?"

When the waiter heard there was something interesting, he immediately recommended it to the waiter: "Sir, today we have the new Junshan Silver Needle and Bijian Mingyue."

"Okay, then let's have a pot of Bijian Mingyue tea and two plates of snacks. Give me a seat on the second-floor terrace." Qu Haoyue pointed to the corner on the second floor on the right.

"Okay," the waiter readily agreed, but he was actually quite surprised. It was such a hot day, and this young man was actually going out into the blazing sun? This was the first time he'd encountered such a heat-tolerant customer.

There were not many customers in Mingyue Teahouse. In just one cup of tea, all the snacks ordered by Qu Haoyue were served.

Thinking back to the small restaurant on Wu'an Street, his eyes gradually became gentle.

Sitting here, you can overlook the "fireworks" of half of Liangshui Street. As the most prosperous section of Liangcheng, it is bustling day after day 365 days a year.

Various sounds were intertwined in my ears, the most common of which was the laughter of young girls.

This place is not only the dream place for all young women in Dayong to settle down, but also the place where all young men dream of taking root.

Qu Haoyue admired the strong smell of fireworks and took a sip of fragrant tea.

At this moment, a luxurious carriage caught his attention.

If he was right, that tall horse was a rare Jueying horse, one that might not be bought even if one spent 100,000 taels.

He suddenly perked up, sat up straight and stuck his head out.

Suddenly, a familiar figure came into his sight.
