Chapter 192: Who Are You Going To Sleep With Tonight?
However, Chu Jian’s gaze was evidently colder than theirs. Several golden runes lit up around her, and the people in front of her subconsciously thought that she was going to attack. But upon closer inspection of the runes, it was clear that they were a type of spell for voice transmission.
Realizing that she wanted to convey something, they refrained from taking action. After all, with them present, none of these people could escape.
Apart from the Forbidden Curse Masters, no one could escape from the siege of over a dozen Curse Masters and dozens of high-level Grand Mages.
Chu Jian’s voice echoed faintly in the minds of everyone present: “Who is in charge here?”
Upon hearing this, everyone furrowed their brows. Who’s this cheeky little brat acting so arrogantly?
A middle-aged man in front took a step forward upon hearing her words, his gaze coldly fixed on Chu Jian.
Seeing this, Chu Jian narrowed down the range of her voice transmission and privately messaged him: “Are you Master Qin?”
The man in front was momentarily stunned upon hearing this, squinting his eyes: “Who are you?”
Subsequently, Chu Jian took out her communicator and found a contact: 〚 Leo Constellation Star Leader, Shi Feng (Lion Peak)〛
Shi Feng, Chen Tianming called him crazy. When he was young, he fought like a madman, injuring himself as much as the enemy, despite ultimately winning. Even though he might emerge victorious in the end, he would still be half-crippled.
“Hey, it’s me.” Chu Jian said concisely, then handed the communicator to the man in front, Master Qin.
Master Qin squinted his eyes and took the phone, but when he heard the voice from the other side, his expression turned astonished.
Glancing at Chu Jian, he wondered who this person was. Could it be… the secret lover of the Star Leader!?
Shocking!
Then he waved his hand and said to the people around him: “Let’s go back.”
The people around him were a bit puzzled. Just like that?
Not only were the people from the Constellation Palace surprised, even the students behind were astonished. Did Teacher Chu Jian manage to handle it all by herself!?
Subsequently, the convoy of flying vessels resumed its journey.
“Teacher Chu Jian, what did you say to them? They actually just left like that?”
Chu Jian smiled and said: “Nothing much, just explained the situation and told them it’s not our concern. I also made a call to the Dean.”
“Oh, wow, Teacher Chu Jian, you’re amazing! You’ve got quite the presence!”
Chu Jian chuckled softly: “Haha~ Be careful, or I’ll tell Dean Qitian.”
But the students weren’t the least bit afraid: “It’s okay, he won’t be mad. He’s well aware of his weight, haha~”
Everyone burst into laughter.
However, Yan Ran and Mi Yao were looking at Chu Jian in front of them. They believed that this matter definitely wasn’t that simple.
Yan Ran remembered what Qitian Ming had told her: Chu Jian’s background is quite terrifying!
This only deepened her suspicions: Could she be the daughter of the Leo Constellation Star Leader? Goodness!
So, Shi Feng, who had been single for a hundred years, suddenly gained a secret lover and an illegitimate daughter…
Chu Jian, on the other hand, was glancing at Chen Ling, softly saying: “In the high altitude, the light might be a bit dazzling. You can pull down the curtains. We might arrive at Flame Blue Beach only at night. You can take a nap.”
Internally, she was grumbling at Chen Ling: You have curtains, why aren’t you pulling them down… you’re always getting us into trouble!
Chu Jian couldn’t fathom why Chen Ling wouldn’t do such a simple thing as pulling down the curtains…
Lying back in her seat, Sui Li’er gradually fell asleep. Her tiny hand slowly released its grip on Chen Ling’s arm. Her little head would occasionally tilt towards Chen Ling, then tilt towards Luo Yuxiu.
A slight sway to the left, another to the right, then suddenly, as the vessel trembled, she ended up leaning against Luo Yuxiu’s shoulder.
“Hmm?” Luo Yuxiu’s heart was pleased, and she gently tilted her head to look over. She observed Sui Li’er’s sleeping expression up close, thinking: Sui Sui is really beautiful…
At this moment, Chen Ling turned his head towards Luo Yuxiu and Sui Li’er.
Luo Yuxiu exchanged a glance with Chen Ling, and he suddenly extended his hand, gently supporting Sui Li’er’s little head. He awkwardly shifted the sleeping Sui Li’er onto his shoulder, then closed his eyes again, fully content to continue sleeping.
Luo Yuxiu stared at Chen Ling, utterly speechless…
It’s just for a little while, can’t you bear it? I’m not trying to steal your wife. I’m just a fan, you know!
In reality, Chen Ling thought that her shoulder was too low. He was sure Sui Li’er’s neck would ache if she leaned against it for too long, and when she woke up, it would be unbearably painful, as if her neck was about to snap.
Even though Luo Yuxiu was internally grumbling, she still obediently took out her phone.
Snap snap — she took a series of photos, capturing the adorable sight of Sui Li’er sleeping on Chen Ling’s shoulder.
“Hey, wake up, dummy.” Chen Ling softly called out.
“Mmm~”
Sui Li’er, with her eyes closed, let out a soft hum, continuing to hold onto Chen Ling. Contentedly resting against his shoulder.
“Everyone, wake up, we’ve arrived!” Yan Ran suddenly shouted loudly.
“Huh!?” Sui Li’er immediately left Chen Ling’s shoulder, looking ahead with excitement. Her little face had a big red mark from where she’d slept against his shoulder, almost like she’d been slapped.
Chen Ling chuckled softly at the sight but didn’t tell her; he found it quite adorable.
By now, the sky outside had darkened.
Soon after, nearly all the junior mages from Aries Academy disembarked from the aircraft.
Some classes had more students, others had fewer. With a total of nearly a thousand people, the institute had already arranged accommodations.
The location was a large cottage near Flame Blue Town.
Calling it a cottage wasn’t entirely accurate; it was more like a grand estate. The architecture was simple yet enormous. Each room could accommodate dozens of people.
“All female students from A and B class, follow the mentors from class B. Male students, follow the mentors from class A!”
“Remember, separate accommodations for men and women~”
“Alright!”
The male students immediately stirred with excitement.
“Teacher Chu Jian, Yan Ran, are we not going to stay together tonight?”
!!!
Sui Li’er heard this and immediately turned to look at Chen Ling.
What! How could this be!?
Chen Ling wants to stay with Mentor Yan Ran and Mentor Chu Jian!? And I have to leave!? Absolutely not!
Yan Ran grinned mischievously and said: “Tonight, while you sleep, I’ll be watching you. If anyone starts snoring, I’ll give them a slap…”
Everyone: ???
“Wait a minute…” Sui Li’er looked at Chen Ling’s back and couldn’t help calling out. She suddenly regretted it; it’s better to sleep at home with the Lord God! Sob…
But Chen Ling had already left with Yan Ran and Chu Jian.
“What’s wrong, Sui Sui?” Luo Yuxiu asked softly.
“Nothing, it’s nothing…” Sui Li’er shook her head, but her disappointment was hard to hide.
Seeing this, Luo Yuxiu comforted her: “After we’re settled in, you’ll have some free time, and you can go find him.”
“Yeah~”
The girls’ rooms were large and could fit around a dozen people. They had a few large beds, two people to a bed.
But the boys’ side wasn’t as lavish; they were all sleeping on the floor.
Seeing this, Chen Ling frowned. Sleeping among a bunch of men, on the floor, sandwiched between them… just the thought was uncomfortable. So, he had no intention of staying there.
“Alright, tonight is free time. You can explore the town, grab something to eat. Tomorrow morning at 6 AM, the official training begins.”
As the male students cheered, Chen Ling had already flashed to Sui Li’er’s side.
“Who are you going to sleep with tonight?”
“Huh?”
At the moment, Sui Li’er was in the girls’ dormitory when Chen Ling suddenly walked in!
This startled the people around her. They were about to call him a pervert, but when they saw that it was Chen Ling—well, he was handsome…
So, that was fine. Everyone was still dressed anyway.
“Tsk… is this the freshman from Class A, the handsome one? He’s truly good-looking!”
The girls from the neighboring Class B were drooling.
Whether male or female, if someone was good-looking, they were pleasant to the eyes. If their class had such a handsome guy, it would certainly boost attendance during lectures.
“Chen, Chen Ling~” Sui Li’er was just thinking about him, and unexpectedly, he came to her.
