Chapter 2: Inseparable

  "Su Qi Ruo..." The dormitory mate gently pushed Su Qi Ruo and made a gesture with her eyes towards their left.

  Su Qi glanced carelessly and quickly withdrew her gaze, unexpectedly running into Lu Ke early in the morning! What does he want to do?!

  "Qi Ruo, he seems to be looking at you." A dormitory classmate whispered, "Hey, he's coming over to us."

  As expected, Lu Ke saw Su Qi Ru and walked over with a big smile on his face. The classmates around Su Qi Ru seemed to understand Lu Ke's intentions and kept a distance from him, allowing Lu Ke to easily take up a position beside Su Qi Ru. Whenever Su Qi Ru sped up, Lu Ke would speed up too; whenever Su Qi Ru slowed down, Lu Ke would slow down as well, as if he wanted to stick to Su Qi Ru like glue. The two didn't say a word to each other and just walked shoulder-to-shoulder until they entered the classroom door, at which point they finally separated.

  "Qi Ruo, quickly tell us what's going on?" The girl's gossip enthusiasm had been ignited, and no one could stop her.

  Su Qi Ruo didn't have the heart to say this, everyone else thought it was a beautiful romance of a man chasing after a woman, but only she knew that this was actually a tragic and desperate escape, escaping from Lu Ke's pair of eyes. The moment she locked eyes with Lu Ke, her life would be over.

  "Hey, isn't that a freshman?! I heard it was you who sent him to the dormitory, oh my, an old cow eating tender grass! What old cow eating tender grass! I'm the tender grass!"

  "Qiruo, it's okay, age is not a problem, now the trend is sister-brother love, we support you! What are you looking at? Look again and I'll die on the street!"

  "I heard that many freshmen in their first year are chasing after him, you have to be careful not to become a public enemy." He is my public enemy!

  Surrounded by her sister's gossip for half a day, Su Qi didn't even finish class, and stormed out of the classroom door. Lu Ke was standing elegantly at the entrance waiting for her, and when he saw her come out, he stepped forward and gently asked, "Where are you going?"

  "Get out of here!" Su Qi Ruo said and then ran away immediately.

  Everyone couldn't help but feel a pang of regret for Lu Ke, and Lu Ke also ignored the crowd's gaze, immediately chasing after him. "Are you done yet?" Su Qi asked with quick footsteps.

  "The prey hasn't fallen into our hands yet!" Lu Ke said with a carefree tone.

  "Aren't you afraid of being drowned by saliva?"

  "I'm not afraid, let them say what they want. If you're scared... you know what to do, and I won't bother you again."

  "Daydream!" Su Qiye tossed out a sentence and returned to her dormitory.

  Lu Ke's tracking skills were indeed impressive, making Su Qi Ruo suspect that he had put some kind of soul-tracking incense on her, causing her to hide in the dormitory for three consecutive days. On the fourth day, Su Qi Ruo peeked out of the dormitory door for half a day, and only when she was certain that Lu Ke was not around did she rush towards the library like a bird set free.

  "The smell of books suddenly made people more spirited, and Lu Ke was simply a nightmare!"

  "Are you reading this kind of book?" Lu Ke snatched the book from Su Qi's hand and flipped through it casually, "I can get a lot of books like this, as long as you..."

  "No need." Su Qi said with a toss of her head and a low, resentful tone, how did he appear again, where did he pop out from?

  "Aren't you afraid of getting your neck broken?" Lu Ke suddenly grasped Su Qi Ruo's neck, a chill ran from her neck to her toes, and Lu Ke's words carried a hint of coldness, "There are really few people in the library!"

  Su Qi suddenly realized something, but it was too late to struggle. Lu Ke increased the force in his hand and sneered, "Finally... you!" Lu Ke's expression changed suddenly, and he immediately let go and jumped far away.

  Only to see that where Lu Ke originally stood, a sharp ice cone suddenly appeared, and on the ice cone was a piece of bright red, obviously Lu Ke's blood.

  It was Su Qi's turn to be pleased, and she looked at Lu Ke's disbelieving expression with a slow and leisurely explanation, "It's raining today, you have water on your feet, and the ground has more or less flowed with water." Su Qi pointed to the umbrella beside her, the water flowing down from the umbrella was constantly gathering around Su Qi.

  Lu Ke furrowed his brow and stared at Su Qi for a moment, then the corners of his mouth kept rising to form a beautiful arc. "I'm more interested in you now, it's okay, we have plenty of time." After finishing speaking, Lu Ke calmly left the library.

  Su Qiwei let out a sigh of relief as he saw Lu Ke walking away, if he hadn't scared him off, she wouldn't have known what to do with herself. But, the ability to turn water into ice was something she clearly couldn't do, so how did she suddenly manage to do it just now? Had her powers grown again? No, she didn't feel anything at all. Was it a problem with the Water Control Technique? Su Qiwei stared intently at the solid ice still on the ground, wondering how she had done it.

  Lu Ke's words soon came true. In the cafeteria, study room, and library, wherever Su Qi appeared in any public place, Lu Ke would inevitably follow her like a shadow. Even if Su Qi appeared at an internet cafe outside of school, Lu Ke would definitely choose a seat next to her and sit down calmly. If there were no seats available, Lu Ke would stand calmly behind Su Qi, even if Su Qi played for hours on end, Lu Ke wouldn't leave her side.

  This stalemate lasted for a month, until the whole college knew that Su Qi had a diligent and handsome bodyguard who was pursuing his senior sister in her fourth year. When classmates talked about this matter, they all sighed, some were envious, some were jealous, some were moved, some were infatuated... In short, there was no emotion that could accurately describe Su Qi's current mood.

  "It's been so long, shouldn't you give up already? You know that we're evenly matched, I advise you to find another target, lest you delay your promising future." Su Qi said, raising her eyes to the sky as if further advising.

  "Don't be late, you are my future." Lu Ke showed a lovely and expectant look.

  "Suit yourself, but there's more than one divine tribe in this world. I advise you not to give up the entire forest for a single small tree."

  "You are my forest."

  "This child is beyond teaching!" Su Qi's eyes rolled back in exasperation. In the past, when Su Qi advised Lu Ke, Lu Ke could still respond with a clear head, but now he had learned to put on an act of being pitiful in front of him, and anyone who happened to overhear would think it was a romantic confession!

  "Qi Ruo, it's raining today, that bodyguard of your boyfriend will definitely come too, right?" The dormitory mates couldn't help but tease her a few sentences.

  Su Qi Ruo was too lazy to explain to them, "Anyway, I've brought an umbrella, it's better if he doesn't come."

  "Aww, won't you be disappointed if you don't come?"

  It would be better if he died! Of course, Su Qi couldn't say this out loud, and she walked forward with a distracted expression. It's said that today was indeed very strange, in the past, Lü Ke was always guarding the door, but why didn't he appear today? Did his conscience awaken? Did the Buddha manifest? Definitely not, if he put down his butcher knife and became a Buddha on the spot, I would have become a god long ago! Won't he be plotting something again? Su Qi carefully looked around, and when her gaze swept over a dark area in the distance, she couldn't help but furrow her brow.

  "You go ahead, I suddenly remembered that I forgot something."

  "Good."

  Su Qi waited until her classmates had all walked far away before cautiously making her way to a small grove in the school campus. This small grove was pitch black at night, and you couldn't see anyone within ten meters of each other, making it the best place for couples to secretly meet. Usually, it's hard to find a spot here at night, but today, with the heavy rain, there definitely wouldn't be anyone... yet just now, she had clearly felt the fluctuations of a barrier, and it seemed to be Lu Ke's aura. What was he doing setting up a barrier here?

  If it were in peacetime, Su Qi would not have cared at all, but today's heavy rain happened to bring out the ultimate power of his water control technique, and Su Qi was not afraid of Lu Ke playing any tricks. What's more, Lu Ke suddenly changed his usual behavior today, making Su Qi inevitably curious.

  "What's going on inside this barrier?" Su Qi placed his hand on the barrier, clearly feeling the fluctuations of spiritual energy inside, and a mysterious power seemed to be constantly impacting the barrier.

  How can I see? What happened? At this time, the seal suddenly burst out a tiny crack, the seal was broken, did something happen to Lu Ke? Su Qi Ruo used the water control technique to slowly seep some water droplets into the seal, and through the mirror reflection formed by the water droplets, she saw the situation inside the seal.

  Su Qi was shocked when she saw the scene inside the seal, "What... what are those?"
