Chapter 284: One After the Other

Translator: Dragon Boat Translation Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

The Changi Airport is in eastern Singapore, while the National University of Singapore is in the southwestern region. Singapore is not a big country, so they arrived at their destination quickly.

The sights were amazing on the way; so was the high level of sanitation. This was a country where littering, smoking in public, and not cleaning in public would be punished with fines or even prosecution. Offenses such as graffiti would even lead to caning.

“Caitang could be a while. Let’s head to the hotel and wait for her at the restaurant.”

When they got to the university, the thunderstorm had stopped. The air felt moist and fresh. Lin Xiaoxiao took Meng Fan to the hotel for check-in, then they went toward a nearby restaurant.

Everything which happened as of now was exactly the same as before his reincarnation. Even a pedestrian who almost collided with Lin Xiaoxiao while passing a corner was the same. It was as if they were back on the same trajectory of life. When they got to the restaurant, an Indian beauty with sculpted cheekbones and exotic looks approached Meng Fan, which reminded him he was reborn.

“You’re really popular. Even Aishwarya wanted to talk to you.” Lin Xiaoxiao commented after the Indian beauty left in disappointment. “She also goes to my school. She’s the most beautiful girl on campus. You are not tempted? You’re abroad… It’d be nice to have a romance on the trip.”

Meng Fan smiled. “I already have a girlfriend.”

Lin Xiaoxiao did a thumbs-up. “It’s not a surprise you have a girlfriend. But you’re a good man for always mentioning her.”

Meng Fan shook his hand. “Your standard for a good man is too low.”

Lin Xiaoxiao said seriously, “This is not a low standard, especially for someone like you, who can afford to be unfaithful. It’s the same for girls, too.” She then asked curiously, “Is your girlfriend your classmate? Supposedly girls from art schools are all pretty. She must be prettier than that Indian beauty.”

Meng Fan couldn’t help smiling. “My girlfriend definitely is.”

“Girlfriend? Whose girlfriend? You have a girlfriend?”

Meng Caitang arrived as they were chatting. She ran in front of Meng Fan and stared at him. She pinched his face and was upset she didn’t see a double chin. “Older brother, you’re so thin now! You’re even thinner than the photos and videos! What happened to all the meat we helped you grow?”

Meng Fan hugged Meng Caitang’s neck with his arm in a familiar and indulgent way. He said with a smile, “What? It’s not good that I lost weight?”

“Hey, let me go. I’m a goddess around here. You’ll ruin my image.” Meng Caitang stared at Meng Fan but didn’t struggle, seemingly enjoying their affectionate teasing. The two of them were close in age and grew up together.

“Please, we have plenty of goddesses in our family, but only one psycho.” Meng Fan let her go and looked at her closely. “You know, you’re becoming like a goddess these days.”

“Don’t change the subject. Tell me, who’s your girlfriend? Is she that classical art beauty? Wu Tong?”

Meng Fan nodded shyly.

His embarrassment seemed like bragging to Meng Caitang. She pursed her lips. “So what? Wu Tong does look pretty. But you said yourself goddesses are plentiful in our family; don’t just look for a pretty face.”

Meng Fan glared at Meng Caitang. “If she’s a pretty face, she’s at the collectible level. She’s pretty and has depth, too!”

“Fine, you can treasure her all you want. Xiaoxiao, don’t worry, we always tease each other like this.”

Meng Caitang stuck out her tongue. She asked Lin Xiaoxiao what she wanted to order and added two more dishes.

After dinner, Lin Xiaoxiao left, then the siblings toured the national university.

The national university ranked number one for universities in Asia in both academic achievement and faculty strength. The campus was also amazing. The city’s environment was already impeccable, so the campus was even more perfect.

Just like before he was reincarnated, Meng Caitang held onto his arm during their campus tour so that she could make those guys pursuing her back off. It’s just that now the arm looked different, and the owner of the arm has transformed too, making the display more convincing.

While Meng Caitang was considered “ordinary” among the seven daughters of the Meng family, she was seen as stunning outside the family. After she blossomed in the last few years, she was a standout on campus. Even in entertainment, where beautiful girls were everywhere, she would also be exceptional. In addition, she was crowned as the school’s “Study Deity,” which garnered her even more followers.

After this walk, Meng Fan heard the sounds of many hearts breaking; they sounded like a symphony.

Before his reincarnation, Meng Fan’s presence next to her was met with gazes of suspicion, anger, and even provocation. This time, the anger remained, but suspicion and provocation disappeared. After all, he now looked impressive with his size and all the fighting experience, especially with Wu Ji.

After their campus tour, it was getting late. Meng Caitang thought Meng Fan would be tired after the flight, so she took him to the hotel so he could rest. She promised to take him out the next day.

Soon after returning to the hotel, Meng Fan left again, grabbing a taxi to Changi Airport.

He had nothing to do for the night, and he couldn’t just sit around. After he considered, he thought it was best that he check out the airport. If he didn’t learn anything, at least he’d be familiar with the site.

At the airport, Meng Fan put on the hat which would make him less visible. While he wore the hat, he didn’t want to act too weird, in case surveillance would notice him and bring trouble.

He found a place to rest and took out his phone. He brought up the live stream assistant device page and did a quick replay. Meng Fan noticed that his +4 Observation skill was useful while watching even at x16 playback speed.

He didn’t learn anything useful from the footage, so he started walking around. He didn’t find anything interesting, but he did gain +1 in Night Travel experience, since this airport was considered a scenic spot.

After midnight, Meng Fan pretended to look disappointed, as if he was upset that he didn’t see the person he was picking up. He acted like he was calling someone. If anyone noticed him and reviewed surveillance, he wouldn’t seem too weird.

Maybe Meng Fan was unlucky; the minute he left the airport, a group of laughing people arrived at the spot he just vacated. One of the people was the hijacker Meng Fan vaguely remembered.

If Meng Fan had stayed, maybe he could have recognized him; or maybe not.

Of course, anyone in this area would be captured by the streaming device he left at the airport.
