333 Return Journey
Chen Yuan cleared his throat and said in a serious tone, âLu Benwei, Iâm not joking. Ever since the appearance of monsters and the start of the era of everyone changing their classes, countless people have lost their lives! However, thereâs only one kind of people who has gained great benefits. Thatâs them.â
After a pause, Chen Yuanâs voice became gentle again.
âSo, Lu Benwei, your enemies arenât just monsters.â
âI understand, Mr. Principal.â Lu Benwei nodded.
âIâve said too much. I hope you wonât tell anyone about tonightâs conversation,â Chen Yuan said.
âUnderstood!â Lu Benwei responded in a deep voice.
â¦
After leaving Chen Yuanâs office, Lu Benwei let out a deep sigh. Shrugging his shoulders, he went to the restaurant where Chu Yan and the others were.
After a simple celebration, the five of them set off on their return journey.
Lin Fengâs flight was tonight, so he left first. Hai Yue was a local, so she went home directly after the celebration.
Zhao Xiaoqi and Chu Yan were both from Yanjing and they were high school classmates. The two were supposed to go back together, but Zhao Xiaoqi learned that Chu Yan would not be back to Yanjing this year.
âIf youâre not going back to Yanjing, where are you going?â Zhao Xiaoqi was very confused.
âItâs a secret,â Chu Yan replied shyly.
Zhao Xiaoqi narrowed her eyes at Chu Yanâs unusual behavior. âThen when are you planning to leave the school?â
âProbably tomorrow afternoon,â Chu Yan replied without even thinking.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
âLu Benwei, what about you?â Zhao Xiaoqi asked Lu Benwei.
Lu Benwei did not even think and immediately replied, âTomorrow afternoon. Why?â
âOh, I see!â Zhao Xiaoqiâs face turned into a smirk, and she kept raising her eyebrows.
Chu Yanâs face was as red as a tomato, and her eyes were frantically avoiding hers.
âYanyan, tell me the truthâ¦â Zhao Xiaoqi raised her arm and pulled Chu Yan into her arms.
She pulled Chu Yan to the side and asked in a low voice, âYanyan, have you two confirmed your relationship? You still havenât?â Zhao Xiaoqiâs voice suddenly rose a little, and then she quickly lowered it again. âYou dare to go to his house for the new year before you confirm your relationship?â
Chu Yan blinked her lively eyes. âWhatâs wrong with it?â
âThisâ¦â Zhao Xiaoqi was speechless. âHow should I put itâ¦? Look, you two havenât even confirmed your relationship yet, and youâre already going to his house. If youâre confirmed, are you going to kiss and cuddle to make a baby?â
âQiqi!â Chu Yan shouted, her neck turning red, âWhat are you saying?â
Zhao Xiaoqi chuckled and squinted her eyes. âWeâre all adults. Why are you so embarrassed? If you follow Lu Benwei, Iâll be too embarrassed to take advantage of you in the future. Youâd better clean yourself up tonight. Iâll pamper you well tonight!â
After Chu Yan heard this, she was unhappy. âAlright, Qiqi, I havenât seen you for a few days. It turns out that Iâm the one bullying you!â
Then, she reached out and grabbed Zhao Xiaoqi. Zhao Xiaoqi could not dodge in time and was grabbed, and a warm current flowed through her body like an electric shock.
âAlright, Yanyan. Iâm going to catch you when youâre not prepared!â Zhao Xiaoqi expressed her dissatisfaction!
âAhem, you two, be careful. We havenât reached the dormitory yet.â Lu Benwei coughed twice to stop the two people.
Chu Yan and Zhao Xiaoqi realized that they were still outside, and their faces turned red.
After that, Lu Benwei sent the two girls back to their dormitory and returned to his own dormitory to rest.
The next morning.
The three of them had breakfast and Chu Yan sent Zhao Xiaoqi to the school gate.
Lu Benwei went to find Liu Yi.
âMr. Liu, Iâm going home.â
Liu Yi did not forget to tell Lu Benwei before he go home. He was so excited that tears flowed down his face!
âGood child, be careful when you go home.â Liu Yi warned.
âAlso, donât forget to cultivate when you get home.â
âI know.â Lu Benwei nodded and suddenly changed the topic. âBy the way, Mr. Liu, I have something for you.â
After saying that, he put his hand into his storage ring. A bright light flashed and a ring with three lines appeared on Lu Benweiâs hand.
âThis is a stigmata? It has three runes!â Mr. Liu blinked.
âLu Benwei, you want to give me such a valuable thing?â
Lu Benwei nodded. âI canât repay you for your kindness.â
âAs you know, I donât lack stigmata now. Iâve carefully selected this piece of stigmata. Itâs most suitable for support classes like us!â
âGood child, youâre so thoughtful.â Liu Yiâs tears flowed freely.
This was Lu Benweiâs kind intention. Liu Yi held the stigmata in his hand as if he had received a treasure.
After a deep sigh, Liu Yi said, âItâs a pity that Iâm useless. I canât help you much on the journey of cultivation.â
âMr. Liu, donât be like this. It was you and Zhejiang Hunter University who chose me,â Lu Benwei said.
Liu Yi laughed and said in a self-deprecating manner, âIt seems that choosing you was the right choice.â
At this time, Lu Benweiâs phone rang. It was Chu Yan. Lu Benwei picked it up.
âAnnoying fellow, where are you? Iâve packed everything. We can go now.â
âOkay, Iâll be right there,â Lu Benwei replied.
After hanging up the phone, Lu Benwei said to Liu Yi, âMr. Liu, Iâll be leaving then.â
Liu Yi waved his hand and said, âGo, have a safe journey!â
...
Lu Benwei took a deep bow and left Liu Yiâs office.
After Lu Benwei left, Liu Yi grinned and rubbed the stigmata with both hands.
âThis child is so thoughtful. Iâm going to show off to my old friends when they come over.â
After a pause, Liu Yi seemed to have thought of something.
âThatâs not right. Lu Benweiâs family is in Hai province, and Chu Yan is from Dragon City. Both are far from each other. Why would these two children go back together?â
â¦
After leaving Liu Yiâs office, Lu Benwei went back to his dormitory and packed his luggage. Then, he went to Chu Yanâs dormitory.
Today, Lu Benwei was wearing a black wool coat and black jeans that stretched his long legs. His image was like a male lead that had walked out of a comic.
Along the way, many girls hid behind Lu Benwei and whispered.
At this moment, Chu Yan appeared. She walked out of the dormitory like a goddess. She was wearing a beige woolen coat and dragging an exquisite small box with her soft, jade-like hands.
Her long black hair was tied up high, revealing a mature and playful look. Her appearance made everything around her pale in comparison.
...
Seeing Chu Yan walk to Lu Benweiâs side, many girls dispelled their coveting thoughts.
