"So what exactly is going on? You said you're her fiancé?!"
All the way to the school gate, Wang Dong kept pestering Huo Yuhao with questions.
Huo Yuhao said helplessly:
"I've explained it many times. I'm from the Duke of White Tiger's family in the Star Luo Empire. Our family has a tradition of intermarrying with the Zhu family for generations. As long as there is compatibility in martial soul fusion between the children, both families will arrange for the two children to get married."
Speaking of this, he paused subconsciously.
Speaking of which, because his martial soul wasn't the traditional White Tiger, he had thought at the time that none of the Zhu family young ladies would be able to perform martial soul fusion with him.
It was just that he didn't know if it was fate or something, but this generation of the Zhu family also produced a mutated Netherworld Spirit Cat, and the two of them happened to be able to perform martial soul fusion.
Thinking about it carefully, this matter could be considered a miracle on the same level as his second soul skill. His luck was truly extraordinary at certain times.
Although he received his explanation, Wang Dong still had an expression of disbelief.
"But you, your marriages are decided when you're so young. Don't you feel that your freedom is restricted?"
"Hmm..."
Huo Yuhao lowered his head and thought for a while, then smiled:
"Perhaps some of the ancestors of our two families had this idea, but I don't."
"Wuwu..."
Looking at his bright smile, Wang Dong was speechless.
Looking at Huo Yuhao's expression, his engagement seemed to be different from what he had imagined.
Just then, Huo Yuhao's expression suddenly changed. He grabbed Wang Dong's hand with one hand, pointed towards the school gate with the other, and said with a smile:
"Look, she's here."
"Huh? Wait, wait!"
Wang Dong's hand was suddenly grabbed, and his small face immediately flushed. But before he could react, he was pulled by Huo Yuhao and ran towards the direction he was pointing.
A petite girl was standing there.
Long black hair like night hung down behind her, reaching her hips. Her agile black eyes were staring intently at Huo Yuhao, who was running towards her. Although she was very petite, for some reason, this girl exuded a very mature aura, making it impossible to see her as a child.
The two quickly arrived in front of the girl, and Huo Yuhao smiled at her:
"Xiao Yun, this is Wang Dong, my new friend."
"H-hello."
Wang Dong greeted the girl cautiously.
The girl looked at Wang Dong, whose face was full of nervousness, blinked her big eyes, then looked at Huo Yuhao and asked in a flat tone:
"Cheating?"
Huo Yuhao instantly bristled.
"Absolutely not!"
"Then are you two-timing?"
"That's not right either!"
"Brother Hao, I always thought you were a good man. I didn't expect you to be someone who wouldn't take responsibility."
"You..."
Huo Yuhao sighed with a headache, and helplessly put his hand on Wang Dong's shoulder, saying:
"Although he looks very much like a girl, he is actually a man, my roommate."
"A man?"
The girl repeated in confusion.
"That's right."
Huo Yuhao nodded.
The girl covered her mouth with her hand and took a small step back.
"Brother Hao, although, homosexuality is a bit too much..."
"Are you serious about taking a step back? And stop joking, look at Wang Dong, he's completely bewildered!"
Just as Huo Yuhao said, because the girl's words were too shocking, Wang Dong was at a loss for how to react at this moment.
Seeing this, the girl quickly put away her playful thoughts and bowed slightly to Wang Dong:
"I'm sorry, I seem to have gone too far with the joke. My name is Zhu Yun, it's nice to meet you. Thank you for being friends with Brother Hao."
Seeing that Zhu Yun had finally returned to normal, Wang Dong finally recovered and responded with a smile:
"No, I'm also very happy to be friends with him."
Huo Yuhao finally felt relieved.
This girl named Zhu Yun was his fiancée and one of the people he trusted most in this world.
She was good in every way, except that she particularly liked to joke around, which formed a sharp contrast with her face that always lacked emotional changes.
Even now, Huo Yuhao hadn't fully adapted to her habit of saying astonishing things without changing her expression.
However, the facts proved that he had relaxed a little too early.
Zhu Yun raised her head and carefully examined Wang Dong's face, which was even more beautiful than an average girl's, and asked:
"But are you really a boy? You're a little too good-looking, aren't you?"
Wang Dong's eyes flickered for a moment, then he nodded firmly.
"Yes, although I'm always bothered by my outstanding appearance."
"Hmm~ Is that so."
Zhu Yun narrowed her eyes, and then suddenly reached out and pushed Wang Dong's chest.
She didn't use much force, but caught off guard, Wang Dong still couldn't help but step back two steps before standing still.
Wang Dong was a little confused for a moment. He looked up at Zhu Yun, but found that she was constantly opening and closing the hand that had just pushed Wang Dong's chest, as if confirming the feel of something.
Wang Dong's heart tightened immediately, and he quickly asked:
"What's wrong?"
Zhu Yun didn't look at him, but looked at her hand and said with a strange look in her eyes:
"I'm confirming your feel."
Huo Yuhao was stunned for a moment before realizing that Zhu Yun was confirming Wang Dong's gender by the feel. He couldn't help but feel very helpless.
"You, you still don't believe he's a boy?"
Zhu Yun shook her head.
"I didn't believe it just now, but now I do."
After speaking, she bowed slightly to Wang Dong.
"I'm sorry, it's my fault. You are indeed a boy."
Wang Dong breathed a sigh of relief, scratching his head and smiling:
"Hehe, it's nothing. Just don't make this mistake again in the future."
"Okay, I will keep that in mind."
Zhu Yun nodded gently.
What the relieved Wang Dong didn't notice was that Zhu Yun's eyes towards him had a more indescribable flavor than before.
Seeing that the two had finished talking, Huo Yuhao clapped his hands and said:
"Okay, since the misunderstanding has been resolved and it's almost evening, how about we go out for a meal together?"
Wang Dong's eyes lit up when he heard this.
"Okay, what are we eating?"
He had only eaten snacks like marshmallows all day today and hadn't eaten breakfast or lunch, so he was already hungry.
Zhu Yun raised her hand, opened her small mouth, and suggested loudly:
"I want to eat Brother Hao's grilled fish."
Huo Yuhao dotingly rubbed Zhu Yun's little head and said with a smile:
"Next time, Xiao Yun. Today is our first day at Shrek Academy, so we should at least eat in Shrek City."
Wang Dong asked curiously:
"Why, is Yuhao's grilled fish very delicious?"
"Yeah!"
Zhu Yun nodded affirmatively at Wang Dong, gave a thumbs up, and said:
"If you haven't eaten Brother Hao's grilled fish, it's definitely a loss for your whole life!"
"That's too exaggerated."
Looking at her excited appearance, Huo Yuhao shook his head with a wry smile, his eyes drifting to the surrounding students.
"Let's ask the senior students here which restaurant is the best
