Urban Super Almighty Student

Chapter 154 - Ye Hao's Intention

“This card is specially for you,” Ye Hao said with a smile.

“Where did you manage to find this card?” Zhang Lan knew full well the value of the gold card.

“It was given to me by a senior manager at the Stardust Hotel.” Since its inception, the Stardust Hotel had issued only thirty of these gold cards, and each holder was a heavyweight in the realms of politics and business.

In essence, not just anyone was eligible to possess such a card.

Those who received this card were subject to a rigorous vetting process.

As the owner of the Stardust Hotel, Ye Hao could naturally bypass this process.

Yet, Ye Hao wouldn't just give a gold card to anyone, like Meixue for instance. He hadn't given her one.

“Alright.” After a brief pause, Zhang Lan slipped the gold card into her wallet.

The card's value wasn't all that significant, since it was only valid at the Stardust Hotel.

And currently, Glento boasted only one Stardust Hotel.

Zhang Lan had always been aware of Ye Hao's enigmatic nature, so she refrained from probing further.

Once back in her seat, her spirits lifted.

The gold card incident made it clear to Zhang Lan that Meixue couldn't hold a candle to her.

Later, Zhang Lan went to fetch a drink.

Ye Hao then turned to Meixue and inquired, “Meixue, do you know Tang Pianpian?”

“Yes.”

“Pianpian has shared your concerns with me. I understand you're troubled by your weight. I have a medication that can restore your figure to perfection,” Ye Hao murmured. “Would you be brave enough to try it?”

“Are you certain this medicine can actually help me lose weight?”

“Yes,” Ye Hao confirmed with a nod.

Meixue's struggle with obesity was due to a hormonal imbalance, a medical condition.

“I'm willing to give it a shot.”

“There's just one condition,” Ye Hao said gravely, locking eyes with Meixue.

“What is it?”

“You must never tell anyone that I'm the one providing the medicine.”

“Why not?”

“All will be revealed in due time,” Ye Hao replied, choosing not to divulge more.

“I agree,” Meixue responded without hesitation.

“After I escort Zhang Lan back to her dorm, I'll come find you in yours.”

“I'll wait for you at the dormitory entrance.”

“Okay.”

At that moment, Zhang Lan approached. “What are you two chatting about?”

“We were just talking about you,” Ye Hao deflected.

“What about me?” Zhang Lan's cheeks flushed.

“Ye Hao was saying how beautiful you are,” Meixue giggled.

“I don't buy it,” Zhang Lan shot Ye Hao a skeptical look. “I bet he thinks Tang Pianpian is the real beauty.”

“No,” Ye Hao gently shook his head, “I may not know the allure of the ancient world's four great beauties, but I have seen a girl whose beauty could bring nations to their knees.”

“Who?”

“Su Xiaoyu.”

“Do you have a picture of her?” Zhang Lan asked, intrigued.

“No.”

“Could you introduce me to her then?”

“I'm not sure I'll ever have the chance to see her again in my lifetime,” Ye Hao said with a smile and a shake of his head.

“Sounds like you're quite taken with her,” Zhang Lan commented, a hint of jealousy in her voice.

“I simply admire her,” Ye Hao replied. Before he could steer the conversation elsewhere, Meixue blurted out, “Ye Hao, how did you know that guy had five cockroaches in his pocket?”

Curiosity also sparkled in Zhang Lan's eyes.

She was eager to know as well.

Ye Hao explained to Meixue, “Six is a lucky number. Since he sneakily added one cockroach to the plate, it naturally follows that he'd have five left in his pocket.”

Meixue and Zhang Lan exchanged glances, not expecting such an answer.

“Okay, I'll stop teasing you. The truth is, as I walked by them, I saw him open a paper packet with six cockroaches inside.”

Ye Hao, of course, didn't mention that he had used his X-ray Vision ability just then.

After dinner, Ye Hao and his companions headed back to school.

Once he had escorted Zhang Lan to her dorm, he made his way to Meixue's.

Meixue was already waiting for him at the base of her dormitory building.

Ye Hao produced a healing potion, carefully dividing it into thirds.

“Take this now,” he instructed.

Meixue looked at him, astonished.

“It would be wasteful to give you the whole thing,” he explained. Given that Meixue's ailment wasn't too severe, Ye Hao figured a third of the healing potion would suffice to heal her.

Ye Hao was running low on healing potions.

Meixue hesitated briefly before consuming a third of a healing potion.

After a moment of thought, Ye Hao said, “I estimate that you'll return to your normal weight in a few days, so prepare yourself mentally for that.”

“Really?” Meixue's face was a picture of disbelief.

“Yes.” Without further conversation, Ye Hao departed.

Meixue had barely reached the stairs when a rumbling came from her stomach. Not daring to wait, she dashed to the dormitory bathroom in desperate need.

Time ticked by, and panic set in for Meixue; it seemed she was excreting an excessive amount. Even after accounting for everything she had eaten, the relentless bowel movement showed no signs of stopping.

Finally, after about ten minutes, it ceased.

Standing up, Meixue felt surprisingly far from drained. She flushed the toilet and stepped out of the bathroom.

Washing her hands, she paused, struck by the realization that she had noticeably slimmed down—significantly so.

Abandoning the sink, Meixue quickly retrieved the electronic scale from beneath her bed. As she stepped on, the display confirmed the unbelievable.

140 pounds!

Her disbelief was palpable—her weight had been 155 kilograms just before.

In an instant, she had shed 15 kilograms.

Meixue was lost in thought. Ordinarily, such a rapid weight loss would leave one feeling weak, yet she was brimming with vitality.

It defied all logic.

Now, Meixue understood why Ye Hao had cautioned her against revealing his secret. It was simply too astounding.

”Pity, I've only lost 15 kilograms,” Meixue mused to herself.

“Meixue, on the scale again?” jeered a roommate. “Doesn't it upset you every time you check your weight?”

“Exactly. Meixue, you're lucky to even maintain your weight, and yet you're trying to lose it?”

“Why can't you just accept reality?”

Amidst her roommates' taunts, Meixue was tempted to shout from the rooftops that she had indeed lost 15 kilograms.

Even if Meixue shed 15 kilograms, it would be tough for anyone to notice right away.

“Meixue, where is Ye Hao taking you out to eat today?”

Before Meixue could respond, another girl chimed in, “Meixue, has Ye Hao fallen for you?”

“Stop kidding. There are plenty of girls at our school after Ye Hao. There's no way Ye Hao would fall for Meixue. My guess is that Ye Hao thinks he's wronged Meixue somehow, so he's making it up to her by taking her out for a meal.”
