Qian Wei City, in a standalone villa within the military compound…

Huang Tielan was sitting on her bed, leaning against the headboard as she propped her chubby cheeks with both hands, wearing a faint, sweet smile. She muttered, “Ai, I wonder how Zhang Xiaoche is doing now. It’s been over a week since he departed, and he’s still not back. Who knows if he encountered any danger…”

Once she remembered that Zhang Che had already been in the dangerous beast world for over a week, her smile gradually faded away. A troubled look came over her face, her worry could be seen in her eyes.

Love was always in a young woman’s mind. A chubby woman had the right to think about love, too.

Huang Tielan couldn’t explain why she slowly came to like Zhang Che, either. This man who hardly spoke a word, and didn’t seem to have a single good point about him, truly wasn’t worthy of a woman falling for him. However, for some reason, Huang Tielan took a fancy to him.

The love between young men and women were usually like that; unaffected by any external factors. As long as the person caught your eyes, you would slowly lose yourself, unable to withdraw.

“Aiya, I like him so much, but does he like me even a tiny bit?” Huang Tielan started worrying about this problem as her thoughts ran wild.

However, she realized that Zhang Che’s attitude towards her had changed for the better to a large degree. In the past, this guy would barely acknowledge her. Recently, not only did he accept the beast card she gifted him, he even promised to present her with a better gift!

Of course, Huang Tielan directly neglected the fact that the return gift was based upon the fact that she refused to take back the Fiery Scorpion. Zhang Che promised her a return gift purely as thanks for her help.

“As the ancient saying goes, if you put your heart into it, you can even break metal! I believe in you, Miss Huang Tielan. You can surely do it!” Huang Tielan pumped her meaty fist, cheering herself.

“Then, should I give losing weight another try? Men don’t really like chubby women, do they?” Just as this thought flashed in her mind, Huang Tielan shook her head resolutely. -No, even if I want to go on a diet, that should be after Zhang Xiaoche falls in love with me. Otherwise, how do I prove that he truly likes me as a person?

-Though, I am still me after I lose weight, right?-

“Aiya, stop thinking about this. I feel so complicated. I’ll just let nature run its course.”

Huang Tielan shook her head forcefully, expelling the complicated thoughts in her mind and prepared to shut the lights and sleep.

There was a knock on the door, followed by a gentle voice asking, “Lanlan, you’re still awake at this hour? Can Mommy come in?”

Before Huang Tielan even gave her permission, the doorknob was twisted open from the outside. A middle-aged woman in pajamas walked in with a gentle smile.

The woman’s facial features were rather similar to Huang Tielan. Her face had an air of wealthiness to it, but was decorated with the marks of time. She was probably a beauty in her prime.

“Mom, why do you always act like that…” Huang Tielan showed a helpless look. Although her mother always asked for permission to enter her room, she never waited for her reply before coming in.

“Oh, is my Lanlan having a video call with a male classmate and is afraid of being interrupted by Mommy?”

Zhong Yuqing walked over with a faint teasing smile on her face and sat down on the bed.

Huang Tielan showed a depressed look, pointing at her body, saying, “Mom, look at all this meat. Do you think anyone would be willing to have a video call with me?”

Zhong Yuqing chuckled. She patted her daughter’s chubby cheeks, saying, “Who told you to be such a glutton since young? Serves you right for being this fat!”

“Are you my biological mother?” Huang Tielan tried her hardest to open her eyes wide, but it still wasn’t enough.

“I did as you all said and worked out more. Although I lost my fat, but my muscles grew! I’m in despair, do you know that?”

“I told you to exercise, but you silly girl went to work out with your father.” Zhong Yuqing couldn’t keep her mouth closed from laughing. She continued, “But don’t worry. Our Lanlan’s genes are great. You’ll surely slim down in a year or two. Then it’ll really be ‘a girl’s many changes, every change a different look’. I guarantee you’ll have more suitors than your father has subordinates.”

Huang Tielan pouted, “I’m afraid there won’t be many changes, and that I won’t ever slim down.”

Zhong Yuqing chuckled once more. In the end, she laid down on the bed, and the two started playing around.

After a while, Zhong Yuqing sat up and asked, “Right, Lanlan, it’ll be your eighteenth birthday in a few days’ time. Is there something you want as your present? Or should I go find your Daddy and ask him to get you a gold-quality beast card?”

-I want Zhang Xiaoche. The problem is can you get me one?- Huang Tielan cursed inwardly. She shook her head, answering, “Forget it, I’m still studying; I won’t need one for now. Gift me a better beast card when I successfully enroll into university.”

Speaking of beast cards, Huang Tielan couldn’t help but wonder what the beast card Zhang Xiaoche promised her would be like. Just thinking about it made her look forward to receiving it.

——

At this moment, Zhang Che was lying in his tent quietly, waiting for his drowsiness to kick in.

Riding around on Hanxue in the mountain range for almost the entire day, Zhang Che finally came to the outskirts of the mountain range. He could already see the vast grasslands not far away.

Although he really wanted to travel through the night and get back to the safety zone, he knew how dangerous it was during nighttime in the beast world. He might find himself surrounded by exotic beasts if he was even slightly careless. Left without a choice, he could only pitch his tent on a level area and wait out the night first.

Although Zhang Che was hurrying on his way the whole day, he killed many exotic beasts, too. He could feel that he was only a step away from advancing into a Tier Three beastmaster.

Once he advanced into Tier Three, Zhang Che could employ two more subdued beasts, totalling eight of them. His strength would rise greatly again!

However, all of this was under the prerequisite that Zhang Che had to obtain a few decent three-star cards.

-A pity that the Scarlet Flame Drake can only be used when I reach Tier Four. Otherwise, I wouldn’t have to worry about beast cards; I could just venture deep into the beast world directly and steamroll over the exotic beasts. As long as I don’t encounter those overly powerful beasts, there basically aren’t any worthy opponents.- Thinking of the four-star dark gold-quality Scarlet Flame Drake card in his backpack, Zhang Che could hardly suppress the itch in his heart. Alas, this matter couldn”t be rushed, after all. It wouldn’t be as easy to advance to Tier Four!

A Tier Four beastmaster was already officially among the ranks of a mid-tier beastmasters. The amount of Soul Force needed was horrifyingly high, and he needed to kill exotic beasts that were at least three-starred to have a certain growth. That tiny bit of Soul Force from killing one-star or two-star beasts are almost negligible.

Of course, that was only limited to low-quality exotic beasts. If Zhang Che could hunt large amounts of high-quality exotic beasts, even one-star beasts would provide sufficient Soul Force.

-But where do I find that many high-quality exotic beasts to kill? It’s better to find three-star or above exotic beasts and aim to rise to Tier Four as fast as possible.-

As he thought about the future, Zhang Che gradually grew drowsy and slipped into the land of dreams.
