Chapter 38: Call
Chapter 38: Call
"A date? How can it be a date when you seem to already be in a relationship with someone?"
"I'm in a relationship with someone? That's news to--"
Before Yun Hao could even finish his words, Huang Yi suddenly placed her phone right in front of his face. Yun Hao lightly stepped a few steps back as he looked at the contents presented to him.
"Liu Hannah dating a newly immersed-- Isn't this me and coach!?"
Yun Hao could not help but raise his voice as he looked at the photo of him and Hannah close together. It was the photo he took when Hannah couldn't get a better angle since Yun Hao was a lot taller than her.
"Not only that, but you're trending," Huang Yi then switched apps to WeLine, showing Yun Hao the video that Hannah made with him as the focus. And as soon as he saw how many digits the views already were, he once again stepped back in disbelief.
"1 1 million views? But that was just yesterday."
"It was just uploaded last night, it hasn't even been 24 hours and it's already got 1 million views. You're even creating quite a stir in some cultivation groups."
"That's" Although Yun Hao was shocked to see how many views he already has, the other news still weighed more, "Wait, but coach Hannah and I aren't together!"
"Pft, I know," Huang Yi let out a small chuckle as she placed her phone back in her pocket, "It's just how social media is. Blame Liu Hannah for uploading it, she already deleted it from her InstaPound account, but it didn't stop the others from saving it."
"Huh shit," Yun Hao breathed as he looked to the side in contemplation. But after a few seconds, Huang Yi stretched her hand and another helmet suddenly appeared from it.
"Here you go," Huang Yi handed the helmet to Yun Hao.
"Where are we going?" Yun Hao was a little hesitant at first, but he grabbed the helmet in the end.
"Well, we can't really talk in front of your school now, can we?"
As soon as Huang Yi said that, Yun Hao finally noticed the building crowd behind him. The students that were watching them were mostly those who left the cafeteria as soon as he arrived perhaps, they were the ones who have watched the video of his Immersion?
It would make sense since they left before any trouble brewed in the cafeteria smart. But now, they seem to be taking videos and photos of him with Huang Yi. He already had enough on his plate with the photo from Hannah, if he was to be seen with another young lady of a somewhat influential family, then he would truly be the center of attention for weeks.
And so, with that thought, Yun Hao quickly wore the helmet.
"Do you know how to ride?" Huang Yi said as she handed the keys to Yun Hao.
"Sure," of course he does. Besides driving Long Yazhu, he was also tasked with taking his collection of motorcycles to the service centers for a monthly oil change. And of course, he took them on rides at the same time since Long Yazhu had too many to even notice that one was gone.
"Where are we going?" Yun Hao said as he mounted the motorcycle.
"I'll send it to your helmet," Huang Yi said as she once again grabbed her phone.
"You what?"
As soon as Huang Yi pressed something on her phone, a sort of 3D hologram appeared on the screen that Yun Hao was wearing, illuminating and lining the road that he needed to take.
"...Fancy."
Huang Yi then proceeded to mount on the pillion, and since she was a cultivator, her soft and flexible legs just easily went over the seat and wrapped around Yun Hao's thighs.
"Alright, let's go," Huang Yi said as she lightly grabbed Yun Hao's waist. Yun Hao, however, let out a smirk as he switched on the engine and quickly opened the throttle, causing the motorcycle to wheelie.
"Eek!" Huang Yi could not help but quickly embrace Yun Hao due to the sudden acceleration.
"Pft," Yun Hao burst out in laughter as he finally steadied the bike.
"You did that on purpose, didn't you!?" Huang Yi shouted, almost deafening Yun Hao from the helmet speakers.
"A beautiful girl is behind me, it would be a shame not to feel her embrace."
"I bought this motorcycle with my own money, you know!" Huang Yi lightly punched Yun Hao's stomach, "It's not like my family has an unlimited source of money!"
"I think I do."
"What was that?"
"Nothing," Yun Hao chuckled as he felt the wind hitting his body, "Sorry, just got excited. I'll pay for the damages if anything happens on our 2nd date?"
"Tch. I was kidding," Huang Yi clicked her tongue as she tightened her embrace. Although her voice seemed agitated, there was a small smile building on her face. Even when they first met, Yun Hao seemed to have a way with his words. If she wasn't careful, then she would really start to fall in--
Before she could finish her thoughts, her phone started ringing. She quickly pressed something in her helmet to accept the call.
"Hello?"
"What was that?"
"Oh, it's nothing, someone called me," Huang Yi waved her hand as Yun Hao was the one to answer him.
"Who are you with!?"
She then almost jumped out of her seat as soon as the voice from the other line screamed. "You're with him, aren't you!?"
"Hello to you too, Jiji."
The one on the other line was Song Jian, the young lady from the clan that wanted to invite Yun Hao into their family.
"I am with who?"
"Don't play dumb, I know you're with him!"
"With who?"
"Yun Yun Hao! I saw a picture of you two together circulating in InstaPound! You were on a motorcycle!"
Huang Yi could not help but let out a sigh from how fast news was traveling, "Yes. I am with him."
"Where are the two of you go--"
Before Song Jian could finish her words, Huang Yi hung up the phone on her. "H hello? Hello? Yiyi? Hello!?"
Song Jian, who realized what just happened, could not help but almost crush her phone from frustration. She then slightly stomp her foot, making her driver slightly lose control of the car he was driving.
"M Miss Song, please calm down!"
After an hour of riding, Yun Hao and Huang Yi finally arrived in front of a fancy building adorned with almost a thousand lanterns of different colors. Yun Hao had passed by this place a few times years ago, but he never really once went inside. He knew he wouldn't even be able to afford whatever establishment it was anyway.
"What is this place?" Yun Hao said as he and Huang Yi got off the bike.
"Oh, it's a restaurant."
"This is a restaurant?" Yun Hao could not help but widen his eyes as he scanned the place. Compared to how big the place is, the number of cars that were parked was too little. But Huang Yi's next words clarified everything.
"Yes. It's a restaurant
...exclusive for cultivators."
