Chapter 16: A Gentleman Does Not Stand in an Asura Field

As she entered, the lights seemed to flicker in deference, making way for her presence.

She walked like the dazzling star of the stage, her sharp high heels clicking crisply against the floor, exuding an overwhelming sense of nobility and dominance with every step.

With just one look, Su Nan could tell—this was a powerful heiress from a wealthy family.

With another glance, he noticed… she didn’t seem to get along with his senior, Mu Chuxian?

But that had nothing to do with him, right?

Su Nan glanced sideways at Mu Chuxian, subtly scooting back, preparing to quietly retreat from what looked like a looming catfight between two powerful women.

But—

The blonde beauty strode straight up to him.

As she got a closer look at Su Nan’s face, stars sparkled in her beautiful eyes.

“So you’re Junior Su Nan, huh?”

“You’re very good-looking.”

“Totally worthy of being the son-in-law of the Quan family!”

Without warning, the blonde stunner grabbed Su Nan’s arm and pulled it into her chest, mashing it tightly against her.

“Coach, she’s using unfair tactics!”

Her previously cold and queen-like voice now turned soft and sweet.

“Junior, what would you like to eat? Big sis will treat you—anything you want!”

“If you want, I can book the whole place~!”

The sudden shift left not only Su Nan stunned, but also the onlookers completely dumbfounded.

Wasn’t this supposed to be a dramatic showdown? Why did it suddenly become a clingy, lovestruck act?

Feeling the softness on his arm, Su Nan couldn’t help glancing at Mu Chuxian.

Though she hid it well, he could sense a faint displeasure in her expression.

And strangely, Su Nan’s heart wavered a little.

So even Senior Mu could get jealous?

Suddenly, the system’s annoying voice rang out again in his head.

“Friendly reminder!”

“Qualified confessor detected!”

“Appearance: 94, Identity: 98, Status: 98 — Overall Rating: S-Class!”

“Host, hurry and confess! Don’t get distracted!”

Su Nan ignored the system completely.

Instead, he looked at Mu Chuxian and smiled.

Then, shocking everyone, he gently pulled away from the blonde beauty’s embrace.

Meeting her surprised eyes, Su Nan boldly took her hand, bowed slightly, and kissed the back of it.

“Apologies, gorgeous senior—but I already have a date with another senior. I appreciate your kindness.”

Releasing her hand, he turned and walked toward Mu Chuxian.

“Senior, let’s go.”

The unhappiness on Mu Chuxian’s face vanished instantly.

Smiling triumphantly, she wrapped her arm around Su Nan’s and the two walked off together.

Meanwhile, the blonde stood frozen, staring at the back of her hand.

Her expression shifted from rosy pink, to red, to crimson—until her whole face flushed deep red.

Her heart pounded, and her cheeks burned as she stared in disbelief at the place Su Nan had kissed.

“Urgent alert!”

“Target confessor’s shyness level is off the charts!”

“Confession success rate: 100%!”

“Special notice: DO NOT waste this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity!”

“Confess! You won’t regret i—”

Mute.

Su Nan frowned slightly and shut the system up once again, ignoring its nonsense completely.

Mu Chuxian, holding his arm, led him to the cafeteria’s ordering area with a satisfied smirk.

The scene left the surrounding students stunned.

Mu Chuxian, widely recognized as a campus goddess, was now publicly seen clinging to a handsome boy.

It caused quite the stir.

Many students stopped eating altogether and just stared at the two of them.

But Su Nan and Mu Chuxian were used to the attention.

They smiled calmly and chatted in low voices.

“Little junior, how did that kiss just now feel?”

Mu Chuxian asked softly, her eyes narrowing playfully.

Meanwhile, under the table, her jade-like foot had slipped out of her shoe and was slowly creeping toward Su Nan’s leg.

Though the scene was sensual, Su Nan felt only a chill down his spine—especially down below!

He quickly corrected her, “Politeness! That was just a polite gesture, okay?”

“I promised to have lunch with you, and I keep my word.”

“Hmph. At least you know your place.”

Mu Chuxian smiled and retracted her foot.

“Alright, time to order.”

She handed Su Nan the menu—a thick book.

As soon as he saw the prices, Su Nan’s expression twitched.

He had just earned 10,000 academy points from slaying an A-rank ghost… and it looked like that wouldn’t last long here.

But looking closer, he realized something.

Many dishes had special effects:

• Immortal Spirit Fruit with Fire Spirit Meat — 240 points.
  (Enhances physique, full of spiritual energy.)
• Ginseng Meat Salad — 125 points.
  (Boosts constitution and strength.)

Dozens of similar dishes followed.

Su Nan’s eyes lit up.

These weren’t just meals—they were cultivation supplements!

Perfect for his current stage in the True Dragon Body Refining Technique, where he needed nutrition to strengthen his body.

Without hesitation, he called a server over.

“Excuse me, could you make everything on this menu for me, in order?”

The waiter blinked in confusion.

“Sorry, what did you say?”

“Everything. In order. All of it.”

“You sure?”

The waiter stared at him like he was insane.

He’d worked there for years and never seen such a ridiculous request.

After all, the entire menu would cost over ten thousand points!

“Certain. Do it.”

Su Nan shoved the menu back into the waiter’s arms without hesitation.

The waiter, though shocked, remained professional.

He coughed twice and pulled out a square device used to deduct academy points.

“Please pay in advance.”

Without a moment’s pause, Su Nan pressed his ID card to the machine.

Beep!

“10,000 points received.”

The surrounding students, already staring, were now slack-jawed.

“Wait… who the hell spends 10,000 points just to eat?!”

“I get nervous spending just 40!”

Among the gasps, someone finally recognized him.

“Su Nan! That’s Su Nan! The number one freshman!”

“Ohhh right! He fought an A-rank ghost alone, and he’s that good-looking—I should’ve guessed!”
