Chapter 204 A Favor
Steven gave her an awkward smile. “Ms. Franklin, what are you doing here?”
Wendy narrowed her eyes. “You don’t look very happy to see me. You shut the door in my face. Is that how you treat a guest?”
Steven gave a dry laugh. “You caught me off guard, that’s all I didn’t think it would be you.”
Wendy raised a brow. “What, am I not allowed to come by?”
Steven’s smile stiffened. “Of course you are. It’s just…”
“Just what? I told you last time I’d stop by to visit your grandfather, He
He must be quite a master.
“And this still counts as a home visit, doesn’t it?”
Wendy rolled her eyes in a sultry way.
“Are you really going to make me stand out here?”
Wendy reached for the door, ready to push it open and walk in.
Steven quickly spread his arms, nearly running straight into Wendy’s dangerous curves.
“You punk, trying to cop a feel off your teacher? Want a taste of my Tyrant Spear? I’ll skewer you!”
Steven smiled helplessly, then an idea flashed through his mind. “Ms. Franklin, my grandpa isn’t home.”
Wendy frowned.
But the next second, Brian had already walked
up
behind Steven.
“Who says I’m not home?
“Heh. You must be this brat’s teacher.
“Hello. I’m his grandfather.”
Steven was done. I’m screwed. It’s all coming apart. End me. I’m tired.
Wendy smiled and nodded. “Hello, Mr. Fisher.”
Wendy politely shook Brian’s hand.
Brian shoved Steven aside.
“Come in, come in. And no need to be so polite. I’m just a useless old man.”
Wendy remained polite the whole time. In her heart, she deeply respected anyone who could teach Steven a spear technique like that.

She just hadn’t expected that person to be sitch an unassuming old man.
Steven watched Wendy allow Brian inside with a warm smile.
It felt like the sky was collapsing over his head. How was he supposed to explain any of this later?
Everyone sat together
Wendy smiled and said, “I honestly didn’t expect all of you to live together. No wonder you’re so close.”
Bianca smiled and explained, “Ms. Franklin, before my Divine Awakening, my house was attacked by beasts and completely destroyed, so Mom and I moved in with Steven’s family.”
Wendy smiled and nodded. “That’s good. This way, you can ask Mr. Fisher for guidance too.”
Bianca froze.
Although she was confused, she still nodded along.
Steven was sweating bullets.
He kept shooting his grandfather desperate looks.
But Brian acted like he didn’t see a thing.
“Steven, I came today mainly for two reasons.”
“Huh? Oh, okay,” Steven answered.
Wendy smiled and said, “Last time, when you were choosing combat arts, level I combat arts weren’t much use to you. So I applied for a level 3 combat art on your behalf. With your grandpa teaching you. I’m sure you’ll master it quickly.”
Steven smiled awkwardly. Talk about bad timing…

The strongest freshman?
Steven is that capable?
At most. he’s a grumpy old man with double standards. He only ever wears that cold face around me. With everyone else, he’s all smiles.
Grandpa understood my signals?
There’s still hope.
Steven quickly added, “Grandpa just taught me well.”
Wendy smiled and nodded.
Everyone chatted for a while.
Steven’s dead hope seemed to come back to life.
It looks like the lie hasn’t been exposed.
When Grandpa pretends to be an expert, he actually seems pretty convincing.
Ms. Franklin doesn’t notice anything off at all.
So we probably fooled her, right?
At the right moment, Wendy spoke with some embarrassment.
“Mr. Fisher, there’s actually one more thing I came to ask. It’s a little hard to say.”
Brian smiled. “It’s fine. Go ahead.”
Wendy explained, “From Steven’s spear technique, I could tell a few things. I believe you must also be a
