271 The Last Target

For Lu Ran, the past week had flown by incredibly swiftly.

He even had the illusion that time was hastening.

After much contemplation, Lu Ran concluded: perhaps it was because he was too happy, too joyful.

The logic was simple and easy to understand.

The forty-five minutes of class time were sheer torment.

But browsing on the phone, playing games, time blinked away overnight...

During this time, Lu Ran and Jiang Ruyi trained together, dined together, and practiced martial arts together on the rooftop of the Wu Lie River neighborhood.

Under the intensive training of a great master, Jiang Ruyi's close-combat survival skills had significantly improved.

As a top student, Jiang Ruyi naturally was not lacking in martial skills.

Adding the master's guidance and her own "Defense Skill·Golden Jade Eight Talismans"...

Even Lu Ran had to put in considerable effort to break through her defense.

Alas, the joyful times were always short-lived.
