Inside the car, all was silent.
Dongfang Jing's figure had already disappeared at the academy gate.
But his words just now were like a pebble thrown into the center of a lake, creating ripples in the hearts of the three girls that lingered for a long time.
Whether it was his calm analysis or his final statement that he had nothing to be ashamed of, it all made a difference.
All of this gave them a sense of enlightenment and that they benefited greatly.
After a long silence, it was Ye Lingling, who was the most taciturn, who broke the silence first.
An unusual light flickered in her clear blue eyes as she gazed in the direction Dongfang Jing had left and spoke softly.
"Yao'er, your brother... is really different."
Dongfang Yao was naturally extremely proud.
My own brother, he must be one of a kind!
But she still feigned ignorance, asking, "How is it different?"
"Hmm..."
Ye Lingling was stumped by the question and didn't know how to organize her thoughts for a moment.
She lowered her eyes slightly, her long eyelashes trembling gently, and pondered for a moment.
"His personality, and that rational thinking, a maturity that his peers don't possess at all."
"Like my former teammates, whether it's Oslo, Yufeng, or Graphite Stone, they all fit their current age perfectly, and every move they make is full of youthful passion and drive."
Dongfang Yao nodded in agreement.
She understood Ye Lingling's meaning all too well.
To put it bluntly, those people act without thinking.
Dongfang Yao also deeply understands this point.
Aren't Dai Mubai, Ma Hongjun, and others from Shrek Academy also the kind of passionate young people who only talk about "comrades" and "bonds"?
They all looked fearless and charging forward.
But when faced with a life-or-death situation, would they still be able to shout these slogans?
Who knows, he might run even faster than Xiao Wu in the future.
Having that kind of person as a teammate sends chills down my spine; I just can't feel at ease with them.
In contrast, his older brother was incredibly steady!
He can always analyze the current situation from an absolutely rational perspective and make reasonable plans for the future.
Being teammates with Dongfang Jing means you don't need to use your brain at all; you just need to listen and do as she says.
My teammates are in charge of the laughter, while Master Jing is in charge of the rampage.
'No!'
'Now is not the time to marvel at my brother's greatness!'
Alarm bells rang in Dongfang Yao's mind.
She turned her head, and her big eyes began to scrutinize Ye Lingling intently.
She saw a hint of "admiration" in Ye Lingling's sparkling eyes.
'If this continues, I feel like Lingling will eventually fall for my brother!'
The reason she thought this way was because it was through the little things that Dongfang Yao spent every day with Dongfang Jing that her pure feelings quietly changed, and she eventually fell completely and couldn't stop herself from falling in love.
No way, Lingling-jie, you're my best friend, how can you be my sister-in-law?
Dongfang Yao shook her head violently, trying to clear these chaotic thoughts from her mind.
Instead of considering these things that are still far from being realized.
Right now, comforting Dugu Yan is clearly more important.
At this moment, Dugu Yan was completely confused because of Dongfang Jing's analysis.
Love? Or not love?
To break up or not to break up?
She can't choose!
She really can't choose!
"Yanzi..."
Ye Lingling, who was standing nearby, reached out and gently grasped her friend's cold hand, hoping to transfer her warmth to her.
If you really can't decide, then... leave it to time. Time will tell.
"That's right." Dongfang Yao immediately agreed, but her tone was much more serious than Ye Lingling's. "However, Sister Yanzi, I still suggest that you carefully consider Yu Tianheng."
Dugu Yan looked at her blankly: "What do you mean?"
"Didn't my brother just say that your relationship started with self-interest, and people can change?"
"Don't blame me for being harsh, Sister Yanzi. Think about it, Yu Tianheng is as obedient to the sect's instructions as a dog. He does whatever he's told to do."
"He did it, but did he consider your feelings from your perspective?"
"He rarely mentions anything about his sect to you, does he?"
Dugu Yan's breath hitched.
It seems... that's really the case.
Dongfang Yao continued, "Besides, even if Yu Tianheng really becomes the clan leader in the future, won't he still be under the control of the clan elders? If he dares to pursue you for personal gain today, he might dare to divorce you for some other reason tomorrow! What should we do then?"
Upon hearing this, Dugu Yan's face instantly turned pale and then red.
She had thought about these things.
They just didn't want to think about it deeply.
Now, Dongfang Yao has ruthlessly exposed his true colors.
That self-deceiving facade has been completely torn away, and the cruelest reality is laid bare before us.
If Yu Tianheng really changes after Grandpa passes away, stops loving her, and divorces her... that would be a good ending.
According to Dongfang Jing, the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan's method of dealing with soul masters who possess dragon-type martial souls is, most likely, to control them, or even... execute them.
It's even possible that...
In order to increase the number of clan members with dragon-type martial souls, they treated Dugu Yan as a tool that could only reproduce...
Finished
Just thinking about these worst-case scenarios made Dugu Yan feel suffocated, and her whole body trembled uncontrollably.
But then I thought, none of these worst outcomes have happened yet.
Now, she has left the Heaven Dou Royal Academy and joined this mysterious Purple Star Academy...
More accurately, she joined Dongfang Jing's team and received extremely safe protection, apart from her grandfather.
As long as she has enough powerful forces around her, even if the Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan wanted to touch her, they would have to think twice.
Thinking of this, Dugu Yan felt as if she had grasped at the last straw.
She asked eagerly, "Yao'er, what are the strengths of those seniors around your brother?"
Dongfang Yao became interested when this was mentioned.
Although it wasn't her, right?
But the feeling of showing off in front of your friends is really quite enjoyable!
Dongfang Yao cleared her throat and extended four slender fingers.
Like a storyteller, he spoke eloquently: "Hehe, my brother has a total of four titled Douluo seniors by his side! All of them have strength above level ninety-five!"
"Do you know Tang Hao, the Haotian Douluo who once shook the continent and was rumored to have killed the former Pope of the Spirit Hall with a single blow?"
Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling suppressed their shock and nodded in agreement.
Given their family backgrounds, they must have heard about this.
"That bastard Tang Hao was the one who chased after my brother! Back at Shrek Academy..."
Dongfang Yao recounted the events vividly, embellishing the details of what happened at the gates of Shrek Academy that day.
From Tang Hao's domineering entrance and overwhelming arrogance to Xue Di's casual move, which brought down a blizzard with a wave of her hand, she manipulated the arrogant Haotian Douluo at will.
Finally, they even cut off one of his arms on the spot!
"hiss--!"
After hearing all this, Dugu Yan couldn't help but gasp.
The image had already flashed into her mind, and she felt completely numb.
The white-haired lady who was next to me just now was actually the legendary level 99 Title Douluo!
So terrifying!
Dugu Yan muttered to herself, "Even Haotian Douluo is nothing but a maggot in front of Senior Xue Di, so... if it were my grandfather, he would be tortured tens of thousands of times, right?"
If Dugu Bo were here,
Hearing his granddaughter's words, he would probably be so angry that he would vomit blood on the spot.
Dugu Bo: Yanyan, you're making your grandfather lose face by talking like that, okay?
