Chapter 76,

Beibei laughed and said, “Little Junior Brother, didn’t you see that he was just avoiding the subject and didn’t intend to tell you!”

Xu Sanshi said earnestly, “I am doing this for your own good. Cai Tou has become a taciturn person. If you knew the content of the event, you would probably be like him. You are all still innocent boys!”

“What does this have to do with innocence?” Huo Yuhao suddenly felt that something was not right.

Bei Bei at the side said seriously: “Don’t discriminate against innocent boys, and I am the same.”

“Ahem! Actually, I am too… at least mentally.” Xu Sanshi immediately cleared his name.

Beibei said disdainfully: “Forget it. Otherwise, how could Nannan reject you so much? You still have the nerve to laugh at others. I want to see how you pass this test tomorrow.”

Xu Sanshi was so hit that his face fell and he looked depressed.

Huo Yuhao finally acted like a good guy and said quickly, “Second Brother, don’t you want to tell a story? Go ahead.”

Xu Sanshi has no other merits than his thick skin, otherwise he would not be able to become more courageous with Jiang Nannan. After hearing Huo Yuhao’s question, he immediately became energetic again.

“This is a joke…”

“Shut up.” Beibei suddenly interrupted Xu Sanshi, “We will have dinner when we get back later, so don’t tell your disgusting jokes, so as not to affect everyone’s appetite. Let me tell you, I will be the host tomorrow Man. If you offend me, even if you pass Nan Nan’s test, I will still mess with you.”

“Uh… Beibei, do you have any humanity at all?”

“Of course you have to treat people with humanity, but it’s hard to say that for those crawling on the ground.” Beibei said leisurely.

“Who are you saying is crawling on the ground?” Xu Sanshi was furious.

Bei Bei said: “Of course I’m talking about a certain turtle, not you. There are people who pick up gold soul coins, but I didn’t expect there are also people who pick up scolding.”

“I’m going to fight you.” Xu Sanshi was about to rush towards Beibei.

Beibei, however, said to himself nonchalantly, “On the Sea God Lake, Sea God Fate, I think some people don’t want to be well anymore.”

“I…” Xu Sanshi stopped in dismay, “Forget it, brother is a magnanimous person and won’t bother with you. But seriously, Beibei, you must help me tomorrow! If it doesn’t work this time, I will be so frustrated that I will lose confidence.”

Beibei rolled her eyes and said, “With your thicker skin than a city wall, how could you not have confidence? I don’t know who told me yesterday that you will never give up until you succeed. But I’m really curious, what did you do to Nannan back then? You’ve been really nice to her in the past two years, but why can’t she accept you? I asked her privately, but she refused to say anything.”

Xu Sanshi said seriously: “Then I can’t say anything, otherwise, there will really be no chance at all.”

Watching the two brothers bickering, Huo Yuhao’s smile grew stronger and stronger. It feels so good to be home! The eldest and third brothers are still the same. But…

Suddenly realizing something, Huo Yuhao interjected, “Big Brother, what did you just say about the Sea God Fate on Sea God Lake?”

Bei Bei chuckled and said, “It’s tomorrow’s activity. Junior brother, you better do your best.”

Huo Yuhao said with a bitter face, “Big Brother, you still haven’t told me what this activity is about. How can I cheer for you?”

Xu Sanshi added: “Two words are enough to describe it – blind date!”

“Blind date?” Huo Yuhao’s eyes widened immediately. “What kind of blind date?”

Xu Sanshi said, “You don’t understand this? To you, it’s just about finding a girl! Do you understand?”

“This…” Huo Yuhao was suddenly embarrassed. “Why would the academy hold such a blind date event? And in our inner courtyard?”

Beibei smiled and said: “This is a traditional activity of our college. In fact, there is only one purpose, that is, to prevent the wealth from flowing to outsiders. You also know that our inner college students are the real elite of the college. And those who are resident in the inner college There are rarely more than a hundred students, usually fifty or sixty. And our inner courtyard is responsible for the task of the supervision team. Everyone is practicing hard. Therefore, in addition to being familiar with each other, we have almost no contact with the outside world. There is no opportunity to interact for a long time. And there is no age limit for inner courtyard students. Therefore, the academy has noticed that many inner courtyard disciples are older young people, but they do not have a suitable partner yet.”

“I don’t know when the academy started this Sea God Fate event. It is held every year. Normally, it is held before the new batch of inner courtyard disciples participate in the assessment. The original inner courtyard students participate in this blind date on the Sea God Lake. In the Sea God Fate event, everyone can show their abilities to the fullest and boldly pursue the person they like. As long as the other party agrees, then you can try to date. We are all inner courtyard students with similar experiences and similar strengths, so there are naturally many good matches. Speaking of which, our Sea God Fate has indeed created many academy couples.”

Huo Yuhao never expected that the interaction Beibei mentioned would actually be a blind date. His heartbeat accelerated unconsciously. Would Wang Qiuer also participate in this blind date?
When it comes to fighting, he is experienced, but when it comes to the relationship between men and women, he is absolutely a blank slate. As Xu Sanshi said before, his face turned red in silence.

Xu Sanshi came close to Huo Yuhao, put his arm around his shoulders, and said, “Yuhao, don’t worry. It’s very easy to pick up girls. I’ll teach you three tricks – be bold, be careful, and be thick-skinned. We are all adults now, and this is also allowed by the academy. Anyway, if you like someone, just chase him bravely. Are we brothers worse than anyone else? Come on.”

“Yeah.” Huo Yuhao nodded. In his mind, the image of the Goddess of Light kept echoing. When he thought of women, the first person he thought of was his dream lover. Of course, there was also the surprise brought by Wang Qiuer’s stunning glimpse.

“Big Brother, when will Wang Dong come back?” Huo Yuhao asked Bei Bei. It would be great if Wang Dong was still here. Wang Qiu’er should be his twin sister, and he could give him some advice!

Beibei and Xu Sanshi looked at each other, and Beibei said, “He should be back tomorrow to participate in this event. The event will be held tomorrow night. Tomorrow during the day, I will tell you the specific rules. My senior sister and I are the hosts of this year’s Poseidon Fate event. This event belongs to our inner courtyard students, and it is also a good opportunity for everyone to communicate. The teachers will only watch as guests and will never interfere. Don’t worry, little junior brother, we have already prepared for shy situations like you and Cai Tou, and we will ensure that you are brought into the atmosphere. Also, you have to remember that it is not so easy to be with the person you like. The number of female students in the inner courtyard is far less than that of male students, and there are more wolves than meat! At that time, there will also be a stage of strength competition, so you must be mentally prepared.”

A fight is necessary for this blind date? Huo Yuhao and He Caitou exchanged glances. For a moment, they felt a mixture of anxiety and anticipation, but also a bit of embarrassment and awkwardness.

“Big Brother, is it okay if I don’t participate?” Huo Yuhao asked weakly.

Beibei said, “Of course not. As a member of the Sea God Pavilion and one of the Shrek Seven Devils, if you don’t participate, won’t it weaken our reputation? Moreover, such a great opportunity is not always available. Although the event is held every year, if you don’t catch the girl you like this year, she may become someone else’s girl. Opportunities are rare and will never come again!” Looking at Beibei’s earnest words, Huo Yuhao’s heart was in turmoil. He couldn’t help but silently call for Wang Dong in his heart. In this regard, Wang Dong has much more experience than him!

After leaving Shrek City, it didn’t take long for the four brothers to return to Shrek Academy.

Poseidon Island has not changed much from before, but before landing on the island, Huo Yuhao could vaguely see that there seemed to be many people driving boats on the lake and were busy.

Beibei told him that he was preparing for tomorrow’s Poseidon Fate event.

“Let’s eat first, I’m starving.” Xu Sanshi patted his belly and strode straight to the Poseidon Pavilion cafeteria as soon as he landed on the island.

When the four of them arrived at the cafeteria, Huo Yuhao couldn’t help but be surprised.

The cafeteria of Poseidon Pavilion was very busy today. Looking around, there were nearly 30 students eating, and the food was much richer than before. What surprised him even more was that there were two large barrels of wine on the side, ready for the students to use.

“Senior Brother, what’s going on? Is drinking allowed in the academy?” Huo Yuhao asked in surprise.

Beibei said, “Tomorrow is the Sea God Fate event. Tonight is called Singles Night. Didn’t you notice that all the people eating are male students, and there is not a single female student? Our daily training is very tense and boring. Most of the inner courtyard students are adults, so drinking a little alcohol is nothing. This is a special approval from the academy to let everyone relax. It is not available at other times. Let’s go and have a drink.”

This was the first time that Huo Yuhao drank alcohol. Tasting the delicacies prepared by the senior chef of Shrek Academy, drinking the deep red wine that looked like roses, and looking at the night view of Poseidon Lake in the distance, he suddenly felt something was unreal.

The wine is a bit sour in the mouth and smells of strong plum smoke. The first sip of the wine is really unpleasant. But soon, the aftertaste with the light fragrance of oak barrels and grape aroma came up. Huo Yuhao suddenly felt that his face seemed to be a little hot. That kind of tipsy feeling was something he had never felt before. The whole person seemed to be immersed in the fragrance of grapes.

“Huo Yuhao?” A low voice sounded behind him, sounding a little strange.

Huo Yuhao turned around and saw the person who called him. His eyes, which had been a little confused due to relaxation, suddenly became sharp.

He was a tall young man, slightly taller than him, with broad shoulders and a broad back, and his short blond hair looked very neat. However, his face was a little gloomy at this time, and his eyes looking at Huo Yuhao were a little cold. He also held a glass of wine in his hand, his eyes gleaming with cold light.

“Dai Huabin.” Huo Yuhao called out the other person’s name calmly.

When they first said goodbye, they had not seen each other for more than two years. The hatred in Huo Yuhao’s heart has never disappeared for a moment, but he has been able to better bury this hatred in his heart. At least it’s not the time for revenge yet.

Dai Huabin walked over to Huo Yuhao and cast his gaze towards the vast Seagod Lake. He took a sip of wine, narrowed his eyes, and asked calmly, “When did you come back?”

Huo Yuhao also took a sip of wine: “I just came back a few days ago.”

Dai Huabin asked: “Will you attend the Poseidon Festival tomorrow?”

“Yeah.” Huo Yuhao responded.

Dai Huabin said, “Originally I didn’t plan to participate, Zhu Lu hasn’t been admitted to the inner courtyard yet. But since you want to participate, then I will participate too. How about a bet?”

“No gambling.” Huo Yuhao answered straightforwardly.

“Are you scared?” Dai Huabin raised his eyebrows, his eyes shining brighter.

Huo Yuhao turned his head and looked at him, his eyes still clear: “No.”

“Then why don’t you dare to gamble?” Dai Huabin asked aggressively.

Huo Yuhao smiled slightly: “Because you are not qualified.” Although he was smiling, the coldness in his eyes was full of provocation.

Dai Huabin fell silent for a moment. The muscles in his cheeks tensed instantly, but the wine in his hand was unusually stable.

Just when Huo Yuhao thought he was going to take action, Dai Huabin regained his composure and said coldly: “Whether you are qualified or not, we will meet at the Sea God Fate event tomorrow.” After saying this, he turned around and strode away.

Huo Yuhao looked at his departing figure with a hint of surprise in his eyes. He had said that just now in order to anger Dai Huabin. The hatred between the two sides was irreconcilable, but this was Shrek, and even if Huo Yuhao had the ability, he couldn’t kill Dai Huabin here. Therefore, he had to induce Dai Huabin to make a mistake. Once he got carried away and did something excessive, the result would be hard to predict.

But Dai Huabin showed a calm side, and seemed no longer as impulsive as before. He actually endured Huo Yuhao’s provocation and turned away. This was completely unimaginable before.

He has grown up too! Huo Yuhao thought to himself. When he saw Dai Huabin, he couldn’t help but think of Dai Yueheng, with whom he had fought side by side. Dai Yueheng had already left the academy and should be following Duke Baihu in the battlefield. In terms of blood relationship, they were both his brothers.

Brother, what a strange name. Huo Yuhao smiled self-deprecatingly.

“What did Dai Huabin want to talk to you about?” Xu Sanshi came to Huo Yuhao, drank the wine in his hand like a cow, and asked Huo Yuhao.

Huo Yuhao said: “He said he wanted to meet at the Sea God Fate event.”

Xu Sanshi said, “It seems that this kid is going to cause trouble for you! Yuhao, don’t be careless. Dai Huabin has risen very fast in the past two years.”

“Huh?” Huo Yuhao looked at Xu Sanshi in surprise. He knew very well that his third senior brother always thought highly of himself, but he did not expect that he would have such a high opinion of Dai Huabin.
