Gao Xuan's words were quite scummy, but Wei Zhenzhen accepted the invitation and followed him to the second-floor living room.
Sitting in this spot, you could just see the glass swimming pool overhead. Sunlight filtered through the rippling water, casting shimmering patterns in the living room.
The simple and delicate modern decor also had an added touch of natural leisureliness.
Jiang Xuejun also felt that this design was quite nice, ensuring functionality while adding a bit of artistic flair.
Of course, this was still the Sixth Ring. No matter how nice this house was, it was just that.
It was Gao Xuan sitting opposite who genuinely added much charm to the house.
Gao Xuan had taken a shower and changed into a loose gray-white T-shirt and shorts. His long hair still slightly damp, yet he looked exceptionally fresh and clean.
The bits of anger Jiang Xuejun had been holding onto unknowingly dissipated. She had to admit, he was truly a sight to behold.
Faced with such a man, without major principled issues, she found it hard to be angry.
Wei Zhenzhen was even more so; she had forgotten about her crying, gazing intently at Gao Xuan, her big eyes full of admiration.
Gao Xuan brushed aside his bangs, letting the long fringe naturally fall and cover most of his eyes.
He said slowly, "Let's part amicably, bringing in outsiders is pointless."
Wei Zhenzhen said aggrievedly, "I just wanted to chat with you again. No other intentions."
Gao Xuan shook his head, "Don't do this again. It's not good for you, not good for me, and not good for your friends."
Then he said to Jiang Xuejun, "You seem quite mature and experienced, don't indulge Zhenzhen's childish whims."
Gao Xuan sighed and said, "After all, others are busy living, unlike you who have nothing to do."
Jiang Xuejun said seriously, "Gao Xuan, don't be prejudiced against us. Zhenzhen is understanding and isn't really against you. What you did was indeed excessive."
Gao Xuan said as if it was obvious, "If you like each other, stay together; if not, separate. It's the modern era, gender equality, claiming someone owes you is meaningless. If there were some entanglement of interests, then one might reluctantly argue about right and wrong."
Jiang Xuejun wanted to argue further, but Gao Xuan interrupted her, "I see you are also a master of cultivation, why don't you understand?"
He calmly said, "What we pursue is the pinnacle of power, the elevation and eternity of life. Love is just a game on the long road of life. With feelings but no love, with the path but no virtue, this is our awakening, our style!"
Jiang Xuejun was utterly shocked and couldn't say a word.
She never imagined that a young man even younger than her could say such things.
Indeed, not just in martial arts, it's the same in all aspects. The strong must wholeheartedly pursue power to have a chance at success.
For the strong, love is always just a diversion.
Jiang Xuejun actually understood this principle, but she had no deep experience of it.
Until Gao Xuan calmly spoke these words, it gave her a massive shock.
It seemed that Gao Xuan was doing just that, having feelings but not being shackled by love, having his own path without being bound by ordinary moral views.
It was only now that Jiang Xuejun understood where Gao Xuan's free-spirited and unrestrained nature came from.
Initially, Jiang Xuejun somewhat disliked Gao Xuan, disliking how he used his looks to play with Wei Zhenzhen. Now, she found herself somewhat admiring him.
Having such an awakening at this age, truly impressive. As long as this guy doesn't die halfway, he will surely achieve something!
Wei Zhenzhen listened half-understandingly, she just felt like it wasn't anything good. But she didn't know where the problem lay.
Jiang Xuejun's suddenly enlightened look confused her even more.
She couldn't help but ask Jiang Xuejun, "What did he say?"
"He just said he won't love anyone, love is just a game to him."
"Then he's still a scumbag!"
Wei Zhenzhen understood, and couldn't help but glare at Gao Xuan.
Gao Xuan, however, smiled at Wei Zhenzhen, saying, "If we can't be lovers, we can still be friends, and have an equal, deep, friendly, and harmonious exchange."
He looked concerned and said, "You seem to be in a bad mood, you haven't rested well the past two days, right? Do you want to have a good rest in my room?"
Jiang Xuejun was stunned, what was Gao Xuan doing, openly flirting with Wei Zhenzhen again.
What stunned her even more was that Wei Zhenzhen was seriously considering his suggestion.
Jiang Xuejun was a bit angry; since he clearly just wanted to play, why was Wei Zhenzhen still paying attention to him!
Although she admired Gao Xuan's awakening and carefreeness, she wouldn't let her friend fall into such a trap.
Jiang Xuejun was just about to persuade Wei Zhenzhen to leave, but unexpectedly Wei Zhenzhen suddenly stood up and said, "I am very tired, can you keep me company?"
Gao Xuan chuckled, "Of course, we're friends after all."
He walked over and gently took Wei Zhenzhen's hand, "I'll keep you company for a good rest."
"Gao Xuan!"
Jiang Xuejun frowned deeply, what Gao Xuan was doing was really too much.
Gao Xuan turned his head and smiled at Jiang Xuejun: "Xuejun, do you want to take a break together?"
Jiang Xuejun was shocked; Gao Xuan's shamelessness was beyond the sky.
This guy was holding Wei Zhenzhen's hand, and yet his eyes were on her too!
Moreover, he made an ambiguously suggestive invitation right in front of Wei Zhenzhen.
Gao Xuan smiled and said, "You don't look so good, you really should take a rest."
Wei Zhenzhen couldn't even be angry with Gao Xuan right now, she nervously watched Jiang Xuejun, afraid she would accept Gao Xuan's invitation.
Gao Xuan made it very clear, if you like to have fun, then join in. She didn't want anything else now, just wanted to be with Gao Xuan and move him with love.
Jiang Xuejun said coldly, "You really have guts, and such a thick skin too."
"There's affection but no love, there's Dao but no virtue. I practice what I preach."
Gao Xuan shook his head slightly and said, "I thought you were an easy-going person, but you think too much. It's rather boring."
Jiang Xuejun chuckled angrily, "Would I be carefree if I followed you to play those group games?"
"Firstly, I just invited you for a rest, without any other conditions. Secondly, even if it's really for a fun group activity, it's definitely to make myself happy, not for others."
Gao Xuan said, "Think about it from another angle, Zhenzhen and I accompanying you for a shy game wouldn't that be exciting."
"You're beyond saving."
Jiang Xuejun didn't feel like talking to Gao Xuan anymore. She turned to leave, and just before exiting, she turned back and said, "I'm from the 3017 class of Mingjing University's Sword Dao Department, and also the vice president of the Swordsmanship Association. Once school starts, I want to properly experience the skills of this expert!"
"Sure, looking forward to competing with Xuejun."
Gao Xuan waved his hand and said, "Then I won't see you out, Xuejun, please close the door."
After Jiang Xuejun left, Wei Zhenzhen said aggrievedly, "I've coordinated with you like this, and you still flirt with Jiang Xuejun in front of me, you're too much."
"Oh, my little baby."
Gao Xuan affectionately rubbed Wei Zhenzhen's bun hair, "You have to understand one thing, being with me is for happiness. You should enjoy pleasure and joy. If you can't find a sense of happiness, there's no need to be with me."
Wei Zhenzhen partly understood, she just liked Gao Xuan, and hadn't thought that far.
Gao Xuan added, "After all, humans are the most selfish beings. Once you understand this, everything revolving around yourself will be fine. You're with me because you like it. Leave me, because you like it. These are your feelings, they have nothing to do with me or anyone else, got it?"
"Hmm."
Wei Zhenzhen softly responded; she still didn't quite understand, but she vaguely felt what Gao Xuan said seemed right. This was how she usually was after all.
Gao Xuan pulled Wei Zhenzhen's small hand into the bedroom, "Look, your palms are all sweaty, you should take a shower."
"I'll help you wash..."
...
"Where's Zhenzhen?"
Zhao Yunlong and the others hadn't left after exiting, and were waiting in the parking lot. Seeing only Jiang Xuejun come down surprised them all.
Jiang Xuejun mounted her Thunder Dragon motorcycle; she shook her head and said, "You all don't need to worry about Zhenzhen anymore."
"Zhenzhen made up with that scumbag again?"
Zhao Yunlong was so angry that blood vessels protruded in his eyes. He was already humiliated by Wei Zhenzhen, and Wei Zhenzhen turned around and went back to the scumbag's embrace. What was the point of calling them here?
Jiang Xuejun looked at Zhao Yunlong with some sympathy; this guy had been fawning over Zhenzhen for more than a year, still having gained nothing.
However, even without Gao Xuan, Wei Zhenzhen wouldn't take a liking to Zhao Yunlong. Wei Zhenzhen, with her arrogant nature, despised all lowly people and things.
Moreover, Zhao Yunlong's intentions weren't pure; his pursuit of Wei Zhenzhen was also out of interest in her family assets.
Jiang Xuejun didn't bother saying more. She started her black Thunder Dragon motorcycle and sped off.
The group hadn't come to their senses before the Thunder Dragon motorcycle was out of sight, leaving only the arrogant roar of its engine echoing in the garage.
"Gao Xuan..."
Zhao Yunlong gritted his teeth saying the name, his face full of evil qi.
One of his friends said, "We can't let this go!"
Zhao Yunlong wanted to utter some harsh words, but seeing the strange expressions on the others, eventually swallowed his anger.
These people were all fair-weather friends, incapable of accomplishing anything significant. If he spoke harshly now, he might be sold out immediately.
Zhao Yunlong strode to his Flying Shadow sports car, closed the door, and contacted Zhao Jun: "Uncle Jun, I need you to help me kill someone!"
