Socially anxious people transmigrate to another world; living in seclusion is too difficult.

"This...this isn't appropriate..." Su Yang wanted to refuse. Wouldn't being a matchmaker mean showing his face in public again? Just thinking about that scene made Su Yang shake his head.

"I think it's great! It's a rare experience that I've never had before. Isn't this part of the adventure?" Lin Anlan rarely asked Su Yang to agree.

“This young lady is right. This is a predestined fate. I hope Young Master Su will not refuse.” Tang Guangquan immediately chimed in, continuing to persuade him. Seeing that Su Yang was about to decline, Shi Yao’er quickly stepped in front of him, feigning a wronged expression, squeezing out a few tears, and said in a nasal voice, “Young Master Su, I know I went too far earlier. If you still hold a grudge, you may punish me as you wish!”

"this..."

“Yes, Young Master Su, we are both willing to accept the punishment.” Tang Tianlei also chimed in, clearly indicating that if Su Yang didn’t agree today, things wouldn’t end well.

"Yao'er, Lei'er, how can you force them like this!" Shi Jinpeng walked over, dismissed the two, and turned to Su Yang, saying, "Young Master Su, you are the best person to witness this predestined fate. If you cannot participate, Yao'er and Lei'er will surely feel it is a pity."

"Well... alright..." After being persuaded by everyone, Su Yang finally agreed reluctantly.

"Hehehe, Young Master Su, Brother Shi and I have just decided that the wedding of our Tang and Shi families will be held in six days. Why don't you stay at the Tang family's residence for the next few days and let Wan'er show you around Qingfeng County? It won't be too late to set off on your adventure after the wedding."

"Is this appropriate?" Su Yang turned to Lin Anlan and asked softly, but Lin Anlan didn't think it was a problem and shamelessly said loudly, "It's appropriate! If there's anything inappropriate, then we'll have to trouble Mr. Tang~"

"Hehehe, Miss Lin, you flatter me. Shall we go and have a look around my residence?"

"Alright, thank you for leading the way, Mr. Tang."

After bidding farewell to Shi Jinpeng, Tang Guangquan took Tang Tianlei and his sister, along with Su Yang and Lin Anlan, into a carriage and headed towards the Tang residence. According to the customs of Qingfeng County, once the wedding date is set, the couple cannot meet before the wedding ceremony officially begins. Therefore, even though Tang Tianlei was extremely reluctant, he had to go home with Tang Guangquan.

Upon arriving at the Tang residence, Su Yang was astonished by its grandeur. He realized that the lives of the wealthy in ancient times could truly be described as luxurious. Although there were no stone carvings beside the gate, the wide entrance was large enough for eight adults to walk side-by-side. After crossing the threshold, a tall tree and a spacious courtyard came into view. Su Yang couldn't name the tree, but judging from the cleanliness of the courtyard, servants cleaned it daily.

As Tang Guangquan ventured deeper into the mansion, he found pavilions, terraces, lotus ponds, gardens, and fish—all the things of the original world were there. It was truly a place where "red gates and embroidered doors concealed golden splendor, and green tiles and carved eaves reflected verdant greenery."

"Young Master Su, Miss Lin, please have a seat."

Upon arriving at the main hall, Tang Guangquan first instructed servants to prepare Su Yang and Lin Anlan's room, then invited them to sit down. Soon after, pastries and tea were served. Su Yang had never experienced such hospitality before; it truly was befitting a wealthy family.

"May I ask how old you are, Young Master Su?"

"twenty four."

"That's the age when one should make a name for oneself. Is there a marriage prospect? Could it be..." Tang Guangquan couldn't help but look at Lin Anlan beside him.

"No." But Su Yang answered even faster than the question he was about to ask.

"Uh, oh ho ho." Tang Guangquan laughed: "Young Master Su is so powerful and handsome, I'm sure many women have secretly fallen for him."

“Mr. Tang, just say what you want to say. Su Yang is rather reserved and doesn’t like to interact with people.” Lin Anlan could tell that this old man, Tang Guangquan, definitely had something on his mind about Su Yang, perhaps even his daughter.

"That was rather presumptuous of me, hehehe." Tang Guangquan wasn't annoyed at all: "It's nothing, I'm just curious about Young Master Su."

After a moment of silence, Tang Guangquan said to Tang Wan, "Lei'er's wedding is in six days. There are still many things that I need to take care of personally. Wan'er, you can take Young Master Su and Miss Lin around for a while."

He then turned to Su Yang and said, "Young Master Su, I won't keep you company any longer. I still have many things to prepare."

"Please go ahead, Mr. Tang." Lin Anlan answered on Su Yang's behalf. She wanted to see what this young girl, Tang Wan, could do.

After Tang Guangquan left, Tang Wan took over the role of tour guide, leading Su Yang and Lin Anlan on a tour of various parts of the mansion. When they arrived at Tang Wan and Tang Tianlei's residence, Su Yang couldn't help but feel a bit shocked. The place where the two Tang siblings lived was simply luxurious. Each of them lived in a three-story house with a garden, a connecting corridor, a pond, a study, a tea room, and so on. It was fully equipped. In the original world, this house could easily accommodate seven or eight people.

Then Tang Wan led the two of them to the streets and visited some of the more famous places in Qingfeng County, such as Yuanqiao Bridge, Qingfeng Market, and Hefeng Terrace. Although the scenery was nice, Su Yang didn't think there was anything special about these places except for their fame.

As they walked, following Tang Wan's steps, they arrived in front of a magnificent building. Tang Wan pointed to the plaque in front of the door and introduced, "This is the most famous place in Qingfeng County and the surrounding area, called Qingfeng Academy. My brother and I are also students there."

This piqued Su Yang's interest. He had always been curious about how students in ancient academies or private schools studied, so he took the initiative to ask, "May I go in and take a look?"

"Of course, come with me."

Although the gatekeeper stopped them and asked questions, with Tang Wan leading the way, he didn't say much and let them in. Upon entering the academy, they immediately saw a statue standing in front of them.

"This is the person who founded our academy. No one knows his exact name anymore, but everyone calls him Mr. Ge."

Continuing onward, many students walked by, their clothing styles identical to Tang Wan's, but the colors of their clothes varied. Some were white, some were black, and others were red, blue, and so on. Su Yang silently counted along the way and found there were seven colors, which should represent seven different elements.

As expected, upon arriving at the gate of a mansion, Tang Wan introduced, "This is the Extreme Transformation Academy within Qingfeng Academy, where cloud element students study and practice."

Su Yang looked around at the walls. It seemed that Puzhao Academy was very large, somewhat like a university in the original world, with each building representing a college. However, since there was enough land here, each college occupied a huge area.

Just as Su Yang was about to go inside, Tang Wan stopped him: "Young Master Su, you can't just go in here. Every academy has its own rules. Qingfeng Academy allows outsiders to enter the academy, but it doesn't allow outsiders to enter the academy. Let's go first, and when we get to my academy, we can apply to go in for a visit."

The group continued walking forward, passing several bracelet shops and foundries along the way. There were quite a few of them, and the bracelets they sold were of a much higher grade than those outside, probably only available to students within the academy.

Soon the group arrived at Yanbo Academy, where Tang Wan was located, which was also an academy representing the water element.
