Chapter 417 Stubborn

In the end, the university students took out their food and ate their shares. Everyone was having a good time in the tent, but they kept their voices down.

At that time, almost no one remembered Simon standing guard outside for them.

It wasn't that they were ungrateful, but after such a tense situation, they just weren't thinking that thoroughly.

Simon lay down, not minding that the others had forgotten his presence. With his current cultivation level, he wouldn't bother himself with the concerns of those students.

However, at that moment, the thoughtful Mauve remembered Simon. In fact, she knew he had come specifically to save her. Still, she was afraid of him, but at the same time, she had a special feeling toward him.

Mauve was hanging out with several female classmates. She said, “The mister who helped us is still standing guard outside. Should we invite him into the tent?”

Her classmate, Julie, smirked. “Mauve, the way you keep calling him Mister reminds me of the scene in the novel, Return of Falcon Heroes, featuring Sandra and Yaro at Frangonie Wharf.”

Another classmate, Mackayla, chirped, “Indeed. This mister is truly fearsome. He's even more terrifying than The Falcon Hero in the novel. He took out more than a dozen fierce wolves effortlessly.”

Mauve felt a little embarrassed. “If it weren't for him, we would've been devoured by the wolves. It's not nice to leave him outside, no?”

Julie uttered solemnly, “You're right, but we don't have any spare tents. If we invite him in, the boys might feel uncomfortable. We don't have the authority to make decisions for them, and we can't possibly invite him into our tent, right?”

Mackayla agreed, “You have a point.”

Mauve was stumped.

Julie suggested, “Anyway, we should bring him some food.”

Mackayla said, “But he has a strange temperament. If we bring it to him, he might not want it.” She paused briefly before continuing, “Mauve, he seems to treat you differently. Maybe you should send the food to him. Perhaps he saved us today because you gave him the snacks at the tavern. Capable people like him often have peculiar personalities.”

“Let's go together,” Mauve uttered timidly.

Julie and Mackayla shook their heads in unison. They didn't dare to face Simon.

Mauve had no other choice but to go alone since she couldn't bear to ignore Simon further. She gritted her teeth, grabbed some food, and left the tent.

Mauve turned on the flashlight on her phone and cautiously made her way to the tree under which Simon was resting.

“Mister!” she called out. She was still wearing her sports attire, but her hair was loose, adding a touch of allure to her innocent and lovely appearance.

Simon glanced at her indifferently. “What's the matter?”

Mauve was stunned. Simon's distant attitude rendered her unable to communicate further with him.

“I brought some food for you,” Mauve said while holding up some cookies in her hand.

“I don't need it,” he rejected her coldly.

Mauve felt a little hurt. She put away the cookie and said, “Okay.” She turned to leave, but ultimately, she still looked back and beamed at Simon. “Mister, thank you for your help today.”

Simon responded with a grunt and closed his eyes to rest.
