Doomsday Code

Chapter 261: Xiao Dun becomes more courageous after more setbacks

Perhaps because it was the New Year, the old man who was guarding the gate of the college was nowhere to be seen today. After getting off the carriage, Chen Cheng walked straight into the college.

However, when Chen Cheng crossed the playground in front of the college and came to the dormitory building for faculty and staff, he saw the security guard standing here eating melons with other tutors in the college.

At the foot of the dormitory building, Xiao Dun, who had not been seen for a long time, was holding a armor orchid that he had gotten from somewhere, performing a knight's salute and half-kneeling at the foot of the building, looking affectionately at the dormitory floor where Isabelle was.

When Chen Cheng saw this, he said, "Go away. When did Xiao Dun learn this way of pursuing someone?"

This really feels like the college student in the previous life chasing his beloved girl.

However, Chen Cheng didn't realize at all that Xiao Dun thought of this way of pursuit because he had said it to Xiao Dun before, but Xiao Dun changed the application scenario of Chen Cheng's method.

However, no matter how clever Xiao Dun's methods were, Isabel simply ignored him, so no matter how many tricks he had, it would be useless.

Although there is a saying that a good girl is afraid of a clingy man, that is only true for some young girls who are not very worldly-wise.

But for a girl like Ishabel who has a clear goal and knows what she needs, his work is just a useless job of licking the dog.

"Ishabel, today is the birthday of the Sun God. I, Xiao Dun, swear to God today that I, Xiao Dun, will only have you in this life."

Xiao Dun's oath was truly a risk-taking one. In this world, people still respect faith, especially gods. If you swear by gods, there is more than a 90% chance that the oath will not be violated.

Chen Cheng did not expect that Xiao Dun, a young, wealthy, and powerful man with a strong background, could really do this to Isabel.

After Xiao Dun made this vow, he took out his proposal gift.

It was a platinum necklace, inlaid with sparkling gems like diamonds.

Chen Cheng, who had read books on forging, quickly recognized the origin of the necklace.

This thing is truly a priceless treasure. Although it does not reach the level of a divine weapon, it is also one of the most advanced accessories that can be circulated on the market - Thousand Stars.

What were inlaid were not diamonds or other gemstones, but extremely rare and precious natural magic crystals in the entire continent, or also called ancient magic crystals.

Although this thing is similar to the common magic crystals, it can absorb magic energy from the heaven and earth to replenish itself after the magic energy inside it is consumed.

Moreover, the magic energy in this natural magic crystal can not only be used to restore magic energy, but also to restore the warrior's fighting spirit.

It can be said that this thing is a universal power bank and one of the most precious treasures among recovery treasures.

However, I don’t know if Isabel was not at home upstairs, but Chen Cheng didn’t see any movement for a long time.

Xiao Dun, who was half-kneeling downstairs, waited for a long time but Isabel didn't come out. A look of dejection appeared on his face.

Just when Chen Cheng thought Xiao Dun would rush upstairs and knock on the door as he did before, Xiao Dun stood up, put away his things, and then said to the upstairs:

"Isabelle, I will not give up, even if you have rejected me, but I want to say that you have the right to reject me, and I, Xiao Dun, also have the right to like you."

After saying that, Xiao Dun took his flowers and left the college.

And those mentors who were enjoying watching the show kept repeating Xiao Dun's last words after he passed away. The only few female mentors in the academy now had infatuated looks on their faces.

Chen Cheng, who was just watching the show, didn't expect that Xiao Dun would be so smart. It was just that he chose the wrong person. With Isabel's personality and the way she felt about Xiao Dun like a brother, there was absolutely no way she would accept marrying Xiao Dun.

Seeing that there were no more melons to eat here, the security guard put his hands behind his back and staggered back to his post.

And he happened to see Chen Cheng behind the crowd.

"Hey, why are you here at the academy today? It's still early before school starts."

"Happy New Year, uncle. I'm here to wish my teacher a happy new year."

Then, to avoid misunderstanding, Chen Cheng explained:

"This New Year's greeting is a custom passed down in our tribe."

The old man just said "oh" and then gossiped with Chen Cheng with a smile:

"Well, you saw it just now. The two instructors in your class are really lucky. One is the Earl's fiancée, and the other is favored by Earl Xiaoton and has been pursuing her."

Chen Cheng had never expected that the usually silent security guard would be so gossipy. Moreover, when it came to Melinda and the others, Chen Cheng had no gossip at all. Instead, he felt that their experience was unfair.

Melinda had no such feelings for Huidun, not to mention that the two were cousins, not even within the fifth degree of separation. Such a combination would definitely be a royal joke if people who knew their identities knew about it.

Not to mention Isabel, although she came from a prominent family, she was strong all her life and wanted to prove that she was no weaker than men, but in the end she ended up with a physical disability. Later, she came to this remote city of Huidun to become a mentor.

Seeing that Chen Cheng, a junior who usually respected the elderly, suddenly had a gloomy face, the old man fell silent and could only smile awkwardly and leave.

Chen Cheng calmed himself down, then just sighed and entered the tutor's dormitory.

In fact, this cannot be blamed on the old man for being gossipy. Who said that the status of women in this world is so low? Even if there are peerless female strongmen who can prove that women are no weaker than men in spiritual practice, this is the social perception.

Among the many girls Chen Cheng knew, only Adalin and Isabel were like them. They both wanted to prove that they were good enough, so they both put in more effort than ordinary people to become a practitioner who practiced both magic and warfare.

Of course, this understanding of Edalin was what Finniel told him when they were chatting.

Finier said this to tell Chen Cheng that Adalin was just like Isabel and they would never give Chen Cheng an easy time, so Chen Cheng should not think that his life would become better if he was seduced by Adalin.

Arriving at the dormitory gate, Chen Cheng looked at Isabel's door next to Melinda's, and then knocked on Melinda's door.

Soon a clear and pleasant voice was heard in the house.

"Who is it?"

"It's me, Brown."

When the door was opened, Chen Cheng saw Melinda, who was wearing home clothes and glasses and had a silly expression.

"Happy New Year, teacher."

"It's you, kid. The teacher thought it was Earl Shoton."

"Come in quickly, it's still very cold outside."
