Delta: Taming wheat in a dream, I, Said

Chapter 244 Butterfly: Your chapter is here!

"Sleeping Moon City is truly prosperous."

Beside her, Zoya suddenly whispered.

Bai Kang's gaze shifted from the underground city to Zoya's face. For some reason, he suddenly felt that Zoya was...sad? Or perhaps mocking.

"Isn't prosperity a good thing?" Bai Kang asked doubtfully. "I remember that last year, Mianyue City's GDP was already number one in the Dragon Kingdom, or even number one in the world."

Urban GDP is an important indicator for every city, representing its prosperity.

Why does the city of Mianyue, which has the highest GDP, sound so unpleasant in Zoya's words?

"The more prosperous a city is, the clearer everyone's goals become. Human touch will decrease as GDP rises. In the end, the city will become a cold economic city, where only calculation remains."

Zoya lowered her eyes and said softly.

She deeply understands this feeling. Once she has accumulated a certain amount of HAF coins, all she feels about human relationships is profit.

She doesn't like it.

But there was nothing she could do; people were afraid of her because the Haff coins she casually tossed out could be someone's entire life.

Even if she has no ill intentions, others will be afraid of upsetting her and causing their families to be destroyed.

Even if she didn't have such thoughts, those upper-class people who wanted to curry favor with her would try to figure out what she was thinking and take action against those who angered her.

This is the cold, hard world of HAFcoin.

Therefore, as Sleeping Moon City became the city with the highest GDP, Zoya grew to hate it more and more.

Bai Kang remained silent. He didn't have the astronomical amount of HAF coins that Zoya possessed, nor had he experienced that kind of life filled with only interests and calculations, so naturally he couldn't empathize with Zoya.

But he knew,

Zoya is lonely.

Otherwise, why would such an incredibly wealthy young lady follow Mai Xiaowen around like a shadow? Isn't it just for that sense of companionship?

After a moment of contemplation,

Bai Kang placed his hand on Zoya's head and whispered, "Zoya, Xiaomai and I will stay with you."

Beside them, Mai Xiaowen, who had been resting with her eyes closed, suddenly opened one eye and glanced at the two of them without leaving a trace.

Xiaoya? When did they become so close?

However, she didn't say anything, but closed her eyes again to rest and recuperate. She was too tired last night and needed to catch up on her sleep, otherwise how could she continue to exploit Bai Kang?

Zoya felt the gentle touch above her head, and her face suddenly flushed pink.

"That bastard pervert! How dare he touch my head like that! This is so shameful!" she roared inwardly.

But outwardly, he kept his head down, silently enjoying this brief moment of tenderness.

She hadn't experienced this feeling in a long time.

As time passed, shame crept over her entire body, making her feel itchy and uncomfortable.

at last,

With a slap, she knocked the hand off her head, turned her head away, and shouted, "Damn it! Do you think I'm a cat?! If you touch my head without my permission again, I'll beat you up!"

Bai Kang couldn't see Zoya's blushing face, and naturally, he didn't understand that her heart was pounding like a drum.

He rubbed his numb hands and muttered, "Honestly, you didn't refuse..."

"What did you say?!"

"Um, I said I won't do it again next time."

Soon, silence fell inside the helicopter.

Bai Kang observed the bustling city through the glass window, Mai Xiaowen closed her eyes to recover her energy, and Zoya turned around to tidy her hair, which had been ruffled into a mess.

All three seemed very busy, yet it was a strangely harmonious scene.

……

at last,

The helicopter landed safely at the entrance of Mianyue Academy.

"Monday!" (Background music featuring the mouse)

Hackie Bee leaped out of its cockpit.

"Big brothers and sisters, I'll be going now," the bee doctor said in a simple and honest manner.

He was neither a student nor a teacher at Mianyue Academy, so naturally he did not enter Mianyue Academy.

What do you want to do, Hagi bees?

He wanted to be a wandering doctor who could save lives, and with his hormone gun, he possessed extraordinary healing abilities.

"Okay, be careful. If you need anything, just let me know." Zoya waved generously.

After the Haki bees left.

The group stood at the entrance of Mianyue Academy.

"Ugh, I'm finally back. I'm exhausted." Zoya stretched, looking completely relaxed.

Compared to the subspace, reality is far more stable.

No one truly likes war; this is the most truthful statement in the world.

"Aren't you going back to Demon King Community?" Bai Kang asked, puzzled.

"Yes, I plan to stay here for a while," Mai Xiaowen said with a smile, her gaze falling on Bai Kang as she spoke.

Since Mai Xiaowen had moved to Mianyue Academy, Zoya naturally followed suit.

Bai Kang suddenly shivered. He knew perfectly well that Mai Xiaowen stayed because of him.

He suddenly felt a little worried about his future.

"Hmm... I'm too lazy to go back. Anyway, there are teachers' dormitories here." Zoya thought for a moment, then chuckled. "Besides, the Demon King's residential area is deserted, not nearly as lively as the academy."

Bai Kang chuckled silently.

That makes sense; Izoa's personality wouldn't be able to stand an empty, large villa.

"Tsk, you two are really bored out of your minds. Why don't you live in the academy instead of the Demon King's residential area? What's wrong? Missing the old school days?"

Jifeng curled his lip. "Fine, you can stay if you want. Anyway, Luna and I are going back to our apartment complex, right, Luna?"

Luna pondered for a moment, then nodded gently; she also preferred the more comfortable Demon King's villa.

With that, the two greeted everyone and left.

Bai Kang, Mai Xiaowen, and Zoya, on the other hand, entered Mianyue University.

"I'm not planning to go to class today. I want to go back to the dorm to rest. What about you guys?" Bai Kang asked.

He felt a persistent, dull pain in his lower back, so he planned to go back to his dorm to replenish his energy.

"I have other things to do," Mai Xiaowen said casually, without specifying what it was.

However, Bai Kang felt that the matter Mai Xiaowen mentioned was related to him, so he didn't dare to ask any more questions. He awkwardly said, "Okay, then be careful."

As for Zoya, she naturally left with Mai Xiaowen as well.

……

then,

Bai Kang then rested well in his dormitory for a day.

evening,

He arrived at the gate of College No. 3 and waited for someone.

As for who to wait for? The answer is self-evident.

About ten minutes later, people started to come out one after another, while Bai Kang was looking for someone.

A few more minutes passed.

He finally saw the person he had been waiting for.

in the crowd,

Butterfly was walking with a girl, chatting and laughing. You could tell from their expressions that they were having a great time.
