It's Not Easy to Be a Man After Travelling to the Future - Chapter 742

Chapter 742: Content!

Ling Lan followed behind Leng Hanfeng and didn’t look up at all. However, in actual fact, she was observing everything around her. She saw a team member of Yu Zhengyuan, the person who helped her with her registration and had brought her to her apartment, Little Jin, and who easily defeated that arrogant youth yesterday.

However, Little Jin didn’t even send a glance at her. It was as though he didn’t recognize her. Ling Lan was curious about the reason why he was ignoring her. Well, her face was not irritating to the eyes, so there must be something wrong with him.

Everyone just sat around casually without any pre-arranged seats. Ling Lan followed her roommates to sit in the last row together. Little Jin was sitting in the same row too.

Ling Lan noticed how Little Jin was occasionally sending a glance at her. She secretly gave him a smile and waved at him.

Little Jin got a shock when he saw her actions. He gave her a small smile, and turned around instantly, completely ignoring her again. He didn’t look like he disliked her. Ling Lan leaned on the table dejectedly and wondered why he was doing that.

“He doesn’t hate you, he just wants to keep a distance away from you.” Leng Hanfeng’s voice floated into her ear. Ling Lan looked up in surprise. She didn’t expect the aloof Leng Hanfeng to clarify her doubts.

Is it because I looked so harmless that this ice mountain let down his guard against me? Ling Lan frowned in her heart. She remembered what the staff had told her when she applied for the Central Scout Academy on Doha that year. She should stop taking such disguise mission in the future.

Ling Lan didn’t want her face to attract too much attention to her. Fortunately, her face was still very childish. Thus, it wouldn’t cause too much damage yet. It might be because she had been taking suppression shots continuously.

Thinking up to that point, Ling Lan recalled that there was only one year left before the deadline she had set with her mother would come. She felt frustrated. She didn’t know how she would change after she stopped taking suppression shots. After pretending to be a man for more than 20 years, she was already used to this life. She felt awkward, thinking about experiencing life as a woman in the near future.

Forget it, let’s just go with the flow. There will be a way around this! Ling Lan decided to forget about this matter.

Although Ling Lan was internally freaking out, externally she still looked as though she was consoled by Leng Hanfeng’s words. She gave him a faint smile. Leng Hanfeng looked at her coldly in response and turned away too. Those indifferent eyes really did make people want to hit him in the face and tear his expressionless face apart.

Ling Lan leaned on the table again and started self-reflecting. When she treated her comrades coldly in the past, did they feel like hitting her too?

“Don’t worry, Boss. Your comrades don’t dare to have any negative opinions about you.” Little Four stood up immediately and denied her thoughts. If Boss didn’t look at them coldly for a day, they would worry about their Boss as he was acting out of character. Ling Lan was enlightened. Her comrades were all masochists.

Meng Shaoran smiled when he saw how disheartened Ling Lan was. Ling Lan rolled her eyes at him. For some reason, Meng Shaoran always teased her whenever he could. He seemed especially interested in her. Ling Lan couldn’t understand why though. Why would someone powerful like him be interested in a shy, timid, and normal young man? Shouldn’t he be more interested in people like Leng Hanfeng, Gu Zhengrong, Su Pei and Xiao Yiqiu? Those people suited his taste better.

Gu Zhengrong, who was talking to the person beside him, noticed their interactions. He turned and comforted Ling Lan. “Shaoyun, ignore them.” He lowered his voice and added, “They are all weirdos anyway.”

Ling Lan smiled when she heard that. Her sincere and pure smile attracted many people’s attention.

Su Pei couldn’t help and send a glance over. When he saw the smile, he frowned. Xiao Yiqiu saw Su Pei’s expression and followed his gaze. He smiled. “You like it?”

Su Pei relaxed his brows and resumed his indifferent expression. “It’s quite beautiful, right?”

“Do you think he will still be able to smile like that after he experiences some humiliation?” Xiao Yiqiu’s eyes glinted. He was thinking about something.

“Who knows? Maybe heaven pampers him and would never let him experience any setbacks.” Su Pei closed his eyes after finishing this sentence, showing that he didn’t want to continue the conversation.

“Pampers him? I don’t believe that there is such kind of people around.” Xiao Yiqiu looked at Ling Lan and gave her a friendly smile.

Little Jin saw Xiao Yiqiu’s smile, and his heart dropped. He remembered his team leader’s comment about this person. He was not as good as he outwardly showed. Xiao Yiqiu looked like a positive young man but he was not one. He wondered if there were good intentions behind his smile.

Little Jin started to worry about Pei Shaoyun. Unfortunately, he couldn’t warn him personally. If his enemies saw him interacting with Pei Shaoyun, they would think that Pei Shaoyun was on his side, causing her a lot of trouble.

Little Jin looked at Gu Zhengrong. Maybe he should befriend Gu Zhengrong. After all, his team leader said that he would make a good friend. He looked like he had a good relationship with Shaoyun so he might be able to help her too. Little Jin made a decision, after feeling frustrated for a moment. He was the only member of his team in the second class. There was no one he could discuss with.

After some time, the teacher finally arrived. There were no lessons for the students in the tenth grade. They were able to plan and conduct their own training. This gathering was to just let the transfer students be familiar with their future friends and potential foes. Under the guidance of their teacher, Ling Lan and the other transfer students did a simple self-introduction. Then, they were officially announced as students of special class number two.

After that, the teacher dismissed them. Ling Lan and her roommates returned to their apartment and did their own things.

Ling Lan spent most of her time in the apartment fiddling around with her equipment. As for her roommates, they were mostly away. They would normally visit the combat arena and fight with the students there to raise their combat experience. They would also go around making friends, widening their network. Even the cold and arrogant Leng Hanfeng found a few good friends.

Ling Lan’s actions proved that her personality aligned with her actions perfectly.

To some people, Ling Lan was cleared of their suspicion. However, this didn’t mean that she wouldn’t face any trouble or danger. Sometimes, even if you are not someone’s obstacle, they would still disturb you because of their own interests. Sometimes, they were just lunatics who just wanted to harm you.

After staying in her room for four days, the holiday came. The Central Scout Academy of Planet Azure wasn’t so strict with their students compared to the Scout Academy in Doha. At Doha, the students could only go home during the summer and winter holidays. During other times, they must remain within the school compound. Here, the school gates would be opened every holiday. The students were allowed to visit the cities nearby to buy some necessities. Of course, you needed to have credits first.

This showed the difference between the Central Scout Academy of Planet Azure and Doha. At Doha, the students didn’t have to worry about all these. The school would provide it for them. But, on Planet Azure, the school didn’t have the luxury to spend that much to support their students.

However, this was a good thing for Ling Lan. Her main purpose for coming here was to find out Li Lanfeng’s background. This mission was just a way for her to get on Planet Azure. She wanted a simple mission so that she could finish it quickly and stalk Li Lanfeng. However, her missions were too much of a hassle so she didn’t have the time to find Li Lanfeng.

The description of the mission was just one sentence, but Ling Lan could already feel how dangerous it was. She didn’t expect the peaceful looking Central Scout Academy on Planet Azure to be controlled by an unknown force. Students were nurtured to become spies from a young age. These young men would then enter into different military academies after they graduated, after that, they would enter the military, and thus, becoming a spy in the divisions.

If one of the cadets didn’t expose himself and got noticed by an inspector, the Federation wouldn’t have known that one of their education facilities was infiltrated by their enemies. The military traced this clue to the Central Scout Academy on Planet Azure. However, the enemies had already taken over the Central Scout Academy on Planet Azure for more than ten years. The waters were very deep in the school. A few soldiers who pretended to be teachers couldn’t find any evidence there. Some of them even left the school, went missing, or ended up dead.

Hence, although there was definitely something suspicions there, the Federation couldn’t do anything about it. They now knew that the enemies were guarded against the teachers who were sent to this school so this tactic wouldn’t get them any results. They had no choice but to find another way around it. This was why they gave out this disguise mission. They wanted someone to investigate the school using the status of a student.

Considering how dangerous this mission was, they appointed the Tang Ningyu for this mission. They also sent a few powerful teachers over to attract the enemies’ attention. Not only that, if the student was exposed, the teachers could help him escape. The Federation would not allow such a talented person to die in this mission.
