Chapter 45

That night, Old Gao and a few teachers went to the graduation gathering for Grade 12, Class 4.

Everyone ate and drank like friends; they talked about life and dreams.

Old Gao said, “You’re the most difficult batch of students I’ve ever taught. You’re also the best batch of students I’ve ever taught.”

When everyone heard this, a few of them jeered in dissatisfaction.

“Tsk~ Old Gao, your words are contradictory. Besides, when were we difficult to guide?”

“That’s right. We’re so obedient. You were probably secretly glad to have us as your students.”

“Also, there’s a dark horse like Chu Luo in our class. When the college entrance examination results are out, Old Gao, you might just be awarded the gold medal teaching award.”

“That’s right. You can laugh openly then.”

Old Gao drank the wine that a student had poured for him and laughed out loud.

The joy was unstoppable.

He turned to Chu Luo and asked, “Little Miss Chu, I’ve never dared to ask you what your estimate is. Can you get 740 points?”

The others actually didn’t dare to ask either. They were all guessing in their hearts. When Old Gao asked this, everyone looked at her with bright eyes.

Chu Luo had been looking at the beautiful wine in the bottle. She was just about to reach out to pour some out and try it when she heard Old Gao’s question. She looked up and replied, “I didn’t get anything wrong. If nothing goes wrong, I should get full marks.”

…

The entire room suddenly fell silent.

Despite seeing everyone’s reaction, Chu Luo didn’t mind. She took the bottle of wine that she’d had her eye on, intending to pour some wine into her cup.

At this moment, a hand snatched the cup from her hand before she could.

Old Gao deliberately lectured her. “You’re not even 18 yet. Why are you drinking?”

After saying that, he took a few bottles of soda. “Take your pick. Drink whatever you like.”

“But…” Chu Luo’s eyes darted around everyone’s hands. She pointed at them and said pitifully, “They’re all drinking alcohol.”

Li Tao swirled the wine in his hand and spoke first. “I turned 19 last month.”

Class representative: “I turned 19 the month before last.”

“I’m eighteen years and five months old.”

“I’m eighteen years and seven months old.”

…n/o/vel/b//in dot c//om

In the end, none of them were younger than 18 years old.

“…” Chu Luo was depressed. As a High Priestess, she used to be able to drink whatever she wanted and whenever she wanted. She didn’t expect to be restrained by age here.

Everyone laughed out loud when they saw Chu Luo’s depressed expression.

After the laughter, the atmosphere became even more enthusiastic.

But all good things must come to an end.

At midnight, Old Gao saw that many people were drunk and said, “It’s getting late. Everyone should go back.”

It would have been better if Old Gao hadn’t said anything. Once he did, most people started crying.

Chu Luo sat there and felt a little strange as she watched everyone cry.

She thought to herself,?What’s there to cry about??She stood up and said, “I’ll leave first.”

Then, she said, “You can come back in the future. Why are you crying?”

Everyone thought about it and agreed. They wiped their tears and staggered out while supporting each other as they sang the song “You Who Sat Next to Me in Class.”

It attracted the attention of all the service staff in the hotel.

Old Gao was worried about those people bothering the girls, so he said to the boys who hadn’t drunk much, “You guys, send the girls and the others back.”

As soon as Old Gao finished speaking, a few boys wanted to send Chu Luo off. In the end, Li Tao said to her first, “Chu Luo, I’ll send you back.”

Chu Luo shook her head. “No need. I’ll take a taxi back by myself.”

“It’s so late. You’re a girl…”

“You think I’ll get in danger?” The corners of Chu Luo’s lips curled up into a confident smile. “No one has dared to have any ideas about me.”

With that, she walked towards the street while Li Tao was in a daze.

Chu Luo’s steps didn’t look fast, but after Old Gao saw the other girls being sent off and turned around to look for her, she had already disappeared.

He looked at Li Tao, who was standing there, and asked, “Li Tao, where’s Chu Luo?”

After a while, Li Tao replied in a daze, as if he had seen a ghost, “She left alone. In the blink of an eye, she disappeared!”

Old Gao: “…” Did this child drink too much?

…

Chu Luo said that she would take a taxi, but she didn’t actually call for one. Instead, she walked directly.

Ever since the guardian beast, Phoenix, had appeared, all her abilities had awakened in this body.

As long as she wanted to do so, teleportation wasn’t a problem.

The gathering venue was at least half an hour’s drive away from her house, but she only took ten minutes to get to the villa.

At this moment, the lights in the villa lit up. Chu Luo had already guessed that the other three were waiting for her and were even planning to settle scores with her.

She sneered at the thought of them settling scores.

She walked in.

Indeed, the three people sitting in the living room had ugly expressions.

Upon seeing her, Wei Wei and Chu Ting immediately stood up.

Chu Ting pointed at her nose and shouted, “Chu Luo, since you knew how to spot the questions, why didn’t you tell me?”

Wei Wei’s expression darkened even more, and she looked like she wanted to eat her up. “You ingrate. I did not raise you for so many years just so you could benefit outsiders. Since you’d guessed the college entrance examination questions correctly, why didn’t you tell your sister?”

Although Chu Zhengyang didn’t say anything, he was frowning as he looked at her.

After hearing their accusations, Chu Luo didn’t get angry but instead laughed and asked, “Didn’t you guys always believe that I needed money to buy my way into a university? I want to ask, if I’d told you about the question type before the exam, would you have believed me?”

“I…” Chu Ting was a little speechless. Then, she straightened her neck and said unreasonably, “Regardless of whether I’d have believed you or not, you should have told me. ”

Wei Wei snorted. “Regardless, it’s wrong of you to tell outsiders but not your sister.”

A cold glint flashed across Chu Luo’s eyes as a suppressive force suddenly emanated from her body.

Instantly, Wei Wei and Chu Ting felt stifled.

Chu Luo walked up and said in a cold voice, “You just want to condemn someone, so you’ll look for any reason to do so.”

After saying that, she sneered and said in an even colder tone, “Are you guys going to push all the blame on me because Chu Ting failed her exams? Ha! You guys are really such good parents and sister to me.”

After saying that, she moved her hand, and the bracelet on her wrist made a crisp sound. Then, she walked upstairs.

“You… you…” Wei Wei pointed at Chu Luo’s back and was so angry that she couldn’t breathe.

Chu Ting was so angry that her heart twisted. Suddenly, the Gu worm in her body acted up. “Ah… it hurts.”

She rolled on the ground in pain.

Wei Wei and Chu Zhengyang’s expressions changed drastically.

“Tingting, don’t scare Mommy! Tingting, my Tingting.”

Wei Wei screamed and pounced forward to hug Chu Ting, who was rolling around and banging her head against the floor.

Perhaps it was because she was in too much pain, but as soon as she was hugged, Chu Ting opened her mouth and bit down on Wei Wei’s arm. Soon, the area that she bit was covered in blood.

Wei Wei gasped in pain but didn’t let go of Chu Ting.

Chu Zhengyang was so anxious that his eyes were red. “I’ll get the chauffeur to drive us. We’ll go to the capital immediately.”

After saying that, he strode out of the door. After a few steps, he broke into a run.

Chu Luo stood upstairs and looked down. Her lips curled into a mocking smile. “What a touching scene.”

After saying that, she looked at the bracelet she had received from the expert from last time and muttered in satisfaction, “It’s indeed good stuff.”

After saying that, she turned around and returned to her room.

Chu Ting was in so much pain that she almost bit off a piece of flesh from Wei Wei’s arm. After Chu Zhengyang woke the chauffeur up, he came over to take Chu Ting.

Chu Ting used her forehead to hit Chu Zhengyang’s chest, causing Chu Zhengyang’s internal organs to almost get displaced. He hugged Chu Ting tighter and gritted his teeth as he endured the pain, then said to Wei Wei, “Hurry up and pack your things. We’ll leave immediately.”

“Okay, okay, okay.”

Wei Wei stood up to pack her things.

At this moment, Chu Ting grabbed Chu Zhengyang’s sleeve tightly and said with a twisted face, “Bring Chu Luo along. Bring Chu Luo along.”

She wanted to transfer the Gu worm in her body to Chu Luo!
