Chapter 551: Shuiqi High School
Song Yufeng came with Qi Jing. It seemed like they had a good relations.h.i.+p.
Moreover, s.h.i.+ Yi and the rest seemed to know this fellow.
“How about I transfer school with you?”
Song Yufeng looked at the two of them expectantly.
Unexpectedly, the duo subconsciously shook their heads.
He snorted and said unhappily, “I’m not willing even if you want me to.”
Lu Sheng laughed dryly and decided to ignore him.
“Jiang Jing, are you transferring schools?”
Yang Chunmei took a while to react.
“Yes!”
Lu Sheng smiled and said, “Let me formally introduce myself. My name is actually not Jiang Jing. My surname is Lu, and my name is Sheng.”
When Yang Chunmei heard that, she was suddenly enlightened. “No wonder they always call you Sheng Sheng. But why did you call yourself Jiang Jing?”
“Because of some unspeakable reason.” Lu Sheng smiled. “Anyway, you just have to remember that my name is Lu Sheng.”
Yang Chunmei nodded. “Then will you be back?”
She had finally made a good friend like Lu Sheng. Now that she was going to transfer schools, it would be a lie to say that she was not disappointed.
“Yes. For example, I’ll come back to visit you during the winter break.”
Yang Chunmei nodded. “Then it’s settled!”
Lu Sheng nodded. “It’s a deal!”
The dishes were served quickly and everyone ate with relish.
When it was over, Song Yufeng suddenly stood up and walked to Lu Sheng’s side. “Junior, I have something to ask you. Can we go out and talk?”
Lu Sheng frowned slightly. “What is it that can’t you say here?”
Song Yufeng glanced at Chu Yan and chuckled. “Anyway, it’s not a confession.”
Upon hearing this, Chu Yan’s guarded gaze dissipated.
Helpless to be pestered, Lu Sheng could only get up and follow him out.
“Speak. What’s the matter?”
The two of them walked to the balcony before Lu Sheng spoke faintly.
“The day Chen Sheng fell to his death, I was on the fifth floor. I saw you and Chen Sheng’s soul appear out of thin air at the same time.”
“So?”
As Lu Zhou had previously said that Song Yufeng had some capabilities, she was not surprised when he said that he saw her and Chen Sheng appear out of thin air.
“Did you kill Chen Sheng?”
He was silent for a moment before speaking his doubts.
Lu Sheng did not know whether to laugh or cry. “Which eye of yours saw me kill Chen Sheng? Moreover, I have no feud with him. Why would I kill him for no reason?”
“You really didn’t kill him?”
“I really didn’t kill him. Brother, do you know that this is called slandering?”
Lu Sheng really did not know what this fellow was thinking.
“I don’t think it was you either.” Song Yufeng smiled and asked, “Do you know who killed him?”
Lu Sheng raised an eyebrow. “Didn’t you say that he fell to his death?”
“Impossible!” Song Yufeng shook his head. “The wall at the window is high. Even if he slipped, he would only fall in. He can’t fall out.”
“You’re quite smart.” Lu Sheng glanced at him and said lightly, “He had a love debt, so she was here for revenge.”
Song Yufeng said in realization, “I knew it. That must be the case!”
Lu Sheng blinked and frowned. “Don’t tell me you’ve been pestering me because you thought I killed Chen Sheng?”
Song Yufeng immediately grinned. “Hehe!”
Lu Sheng held her forehead. “Is there anything else? If not, I’ll return to the room.”
“So, you can see those things too?” Song Yufeng said, “I thought only I could see them. I didn’t expect you to see them too.”
Lu Sheng stopped in her tracks and said with a faint smile, “Chu Yan can see them too. Do you want to ask him?”
“He can see them too?”
Song Yufeng was shocked. “Why haven’t I heard of this before?”
“Haven’t you heard about it now?”
Song Yufeng shook his head. “Forget his words. That guy always has an ugly expression. He’s scarier than a ghost!”
Lu Sheng sneered and returned to the room.
In the end, everyone exchanged wine for drinks and toasted the two of them. This farewell banquet officially ended.
As Pei Yan had drunk, the driver became Lu Sheng.
Lu Sheng sent Yang Chunmei back to the staff dormitory before sending Pei Yan home.
Initially, Lu Sheng wanted to send him back to the dormitory. However, he said that he was afraid of ghosts, so she sent him back to the district.
The next day, after Lu Zhou sent Shangguan Dian a message, he started packing.
“Master, are you returning to the capital with me?”
When Lu Sheng saw the luggage in the hall, she spoke in surprise.
“What else?” Lu Zhou said in a low voice, “Although you’ve grown up, I’m still worried. Moreover, our home in the capital has probably been occupied by spiders. It’s time to go back and do some cleaning.”
Lu Sheng chuckled. “I knew Master would treat me the best!”
“Alright, send that kid a message and tell him to come over early.”
“Yes!”
Lu Sheng took out her phone and sent a message to Chu Yan.
In less than seven minutes, Chu Yan dragged his luggage over.
When he saw Lu Zhou’s luggage, he was stunned. “Is Uncle Lu coming with us too?”
“Yes, we can’t let this girl stay alone, right? If she’s the only one at home, it’ll be inappropriate.”
Lu Zhou looked at the two of them and said, “Quick, see if you left anything behind.”
“Don’t worry, I’ve taken everything.”
“Then, let’s go.”
The three of them left and locked the door before leaving.
When they returned to the capital, it was already noon.
Lu Zhou sent Chu Yan back to the Chu family before returning to his house with Lu Sheng.
As Lu Zhou had said, the huge house was covered in spiderwebs and dust.
However, this was not a problem for Lu Zhou.
He quickly formed a seal with his fingers and cast a Cleansing Spell. The dirty house instantly looked brand new.
Lu Sheng clicked her tongue enviously.
Although she was an immortal now, she did not know much about magic.
She was still more skilled in talismans.
After setting up the items, the father-daughter pair drove to the supermarket to buy everything they needed.
At night, Shangguan Dian called just after dinner.
“You’re all in the capital?”
Lu Zhou said lightly, “We’re here. You’re back in City H?”
“Not yet. I’ll fly back to the capital tomorrow.”
“No!” Lu Zhou raised an eyebrow and said, “I left City H’s big television for you. Wouldn’t it be fun to watch it alone? Why are you coming to the capital?”
“I don’t care. I’ll return to the capital tomorrow. That’s all.”
After speaking, Shangguan Dian hung up the phone.
Lu Sheng glanced at Lu Zhou and asked, “What did Uncle Shangguan say?”
“He said he’s coming over tomorrow.” Lu Zhou threw his phone aside and snorted. “This guy isn’t happy even though I gave up the big television for him.”
Lu Sheng chuckled. “You’re already here. Isn’t Uncle Shangguan bored staying alone in City H? It’s good that he’s coming over. You have a companion too.”
Lu Zhou sneered. “I’m not an old woman. Why would I need a companion?”
Lu Sheng pouted and continued tidying her things.
—————
The next day.
Lu Zhou woke up early and made breakfast for Lu Sheng and himself.
After breakfast, he drove with Lu Sheng to the Chu family to fetch Chu Yan before heading to school.
To be honest, with the Chu family’s power in the capital, they did not need a transfer certificate.
Moreover, they were transferring to a private school, not a public school. It was called Shuiqi High School.
Compared to City H’s Yizhong, this school was much bigger and the buildings were much newer.
Lu Sheng and Chu Yan came to report together. Chu Yan did not reveal his ident.i.ty, so the two of them were a.s.signed to the last cla.s.s, Year Three Cla.s.s Seven.
This was different from Yizhong. Most people from Yizhong relied on real talent to enter. As for this school, as long as one had money, results did not matter.
When the two of them entered the cla.s.sroom, they felt like they had accidentally entered a non-mainstream place.
People had all kinds of dyed hair and were wearing all kinds of strange clothes. In short, it was obvious that they were not in the cla.s.s decent students should be in.
Even Lu Zhou couldn’t help but frown. He asked the teacher, “Teacher, are there no seats in the other cla.s.ses?”
The teacher smiled and replied, “Mr. Lu, our school will redivide the students into cla.s.ses during the mid-year examinations. As long as the two children have good results, they will be allocated to a good cla.s.s.”
Lu Zhou shook his head and said to Lu Sheng and Chu Yan, “Remember to study hard. I’ll go back first and pick you up after school.”
The duo nodded.
In the cla.s.sroom, the seats at the back were basically full, but there were a few empty seats in front.
In order for them to listen better, Xiao Jing specially arranged their seats in the first row.
The subsequent lesson made the duo, who had always had good self-control, lose their composure.
The teacher was giving a lecture. However, the students below were either watching television, playing cards, or cursing. In short, the scene was chaotic.
This made Lu Sheng, who had just started school, wonder if all the schools were like this except for Yizhong.
The teacher on the rostrum seemed to be used to it. She spoke her mind calmly, not caring if the students listened.
Lu Sheng swallowed her saliva and could not help but ask Chu Yan, “Why did Uncle Chu think of arranging for us to come to this school?”
Wasn’t this misleading others?
Chu Yan said in a low voice, “Actually, my father wanted to arrange for us to be in Cla.s.s One, but I rejected him.”
He was too careless. He thought that every cla.s.s in this school was similar.
Chu Yan’s words were heard by the teacher on the rostrum. She glanced at the two of them and was surprised to see them suddenly sitting up straight.
“You’re… new?”
The duo nodded obediently.
The teacher scanned the back and then at the two of them. She could not help but smile. “All the best. The mid-year examination is coming soon. Try to leave this cla.s.s.”
Then, she continued muttering to herself.
After two lessons, the two of them were still in a daze.
“Hey, newcomers. Hurry up and buy us some water.”
A boy with yellow hair and ear piercings walked over and placed two hundred yuan in front of them arrogantly.
Chu Yan’s face darkened. Lu Sheng hurriedly held his hand, hinting for him not to be rash.
She looked up at the blonde and said with interest, “You want to drink water yourself. Why should we buy it?”
“This is the rule of Cla.s.s Seven. Newcomers have to buy water for everyone for a period of time.”
A tall girl walked over. When she saw Chu Yan’s face, her expression paused slightly. When she saw Lu Sheng’s face, she could not help but frown.
“Are you going or not? If not, I’ll ruin your face.”
As she spoke, she took out a sharp fruit knife and gestured at Lu Sheng, trying to scare her.
“Really?”
Lu Sheng pointed at her face. “Come, I’ll give you my face. Ruin it.”
“You…”
Almost everyone in this cla.s.s was a child from a powerful family in the capital. Although they were arrogant, they did not dare to really attack.
After all, they did not know which family was more powerful.
“Why? Don’t you dare?” Lu Sheng smiled coldly. “Take your money and get lost.”
“Tsk, the newcomer is quite arrogant!”
The others gathered around.
Lu Sheng counted carefully and realized that there were only twenty people in this cla.s.s. There were not many people.
“What?”
Chu Yan stood up and looked at them gloomily. “Do you want to fight?”
“Fight? Hehe—” The blonde sneered. “Can you defeat so many of us?”
Chu Yan smiled. “You can try.”
Everyone looked at each other. No one dared to move.
The yellow-haired boy was quite tough. After cursing, he raised his fist and swung it over.
However, his fist was received before it could touch Chu Yan’s face.
“Ah! Ouch, ouch—”
Chu Yan’s hand moved slightly and the boy’s hand seemed to have broken. He howled in pain.
Chu Yan flung him away and said coldly, “If you dare to provoke me again, don’t blame me for sending you to the hospital.”
Seeing that even the most arrogant blonde could not defeat Chu Yan, how would the others dare to move?
The tall girl with heavy makeup looked at Chu Yan with infatuation.
Lu Sheng frowned slightly and pulled Chu Yan back to his seat. She looked at the tall girl provocatively and said, “What are you looking at? He’s mine!”
The tall girl snorted coldly and returned to her seat with the other sisters.
During the third period, everyone was still chattering. It was as if a group of sparrows had entered the cla.s.s.
Xiao Jing walked in with a physics book. Lu Sheng thought that those people would quarrel from the beginning to the end like in other cla.s.ses.
Unexpectedly, when Xiao Jing entered, they sat up obediently like sheep.
Xiao Jing scanned the room and smiled in satisfaction. “Everyone’s here, right? Let’s start cla.s.s. Come, flip to the eighth page and continue the lesson.”
Listening to the rustling of books below, Lu Sheng could not help but click her tongue.
It seemed like their form teacher was not simple. Otherwise, why were these children so afraid of her?
However, as the form teacher of Cla.s.s Seven, why couldn’t Xiao Jing manage these people? Or could it be that she had tried to manage them before but gave up?
“Yang Xiu, what are you doing?”
Seeing one of the cla.s.smates waving his hands, Xiao Jing’s face darkened.
“No, Teacher Xiao, my hand accidentally knocked into the table just now.”
Lu Sheng turned back and realized that the person who stood up to answer the question was the blonde whose hand was twisted by Chu Yan.
