Madame is Pretending to be an Academic Slacker Again!

Bai Chi excitedly pointed at the crack and showed everyone, ”I really, really, really have superpowers now, Little Sister Qingxin, from now on, I’ll protect you!”

Everyone: ”...”

Jing Zhichen awkwardly said, ”Mr. Bai, that crack was from when I just kicked the door open.”

Bai Chi: ”...Ah? Really? Um... then I’ll try breaking a window instead... Hey, don’t leave, it’s no fun without an audience. Hey, guys, just watch me, Little Sister Qingxin, aren’t you curious about how awesome I am now? I have superpowers! I really have superpowers now!”

No one paid attention to his plea; everyone was crowding around Qin Xin and leaving.

Bai Chi dejectedly scratched his nose and stubbornly tried his strength on the window: ”Boom——!”

The window glass shattered in response.

”I did it! I really, truly, have superpowers now!” Bai Chi almost couldn’t wait to announce it to the whole world.

However, in the next second.

”Ow ow ow, it hurts, it hurts!”

He forgot that breaking a window would cause glass to stab into his hand.

Holding a hand punctured like a porcupine, he pitifully jogged after Qin Xin, ”Little Sister Qingxin, get some hemostatic medicine for me, ow ow ow, help me pull out the shards, will you...”

Ao Xinghao turned to look at him, teasingly said, ”Weren’t you going to protect Xin? Mr. Bai?”

Bai Chi: ”...”

The group came out of the little dark room.

The seniors were a bit worried, ”The tutor wanted us to be confined for 48 hours, isn’t it a bit bad for us to come out now?”

Si Moyu sneered, ”You expect us to stay and sleep in a house without a roof?”

Ao Xinghao smirked with a devil-may-care attitude, ”Who cares whether it’s good or not, we’re out anyway.”

Qin Xin spoke calmly, ”Room 3 was a superpower test, now that we’ve passed it, it means the confinement is over, no need to worry about the time.”

The seniors all nodded in agreement, ”I think so too. After being locked up, our wounds have healed quite a bit; it’s really a blessing in disguise.”

Ao Xinghao resisted the urge to say: You guys just have your wounds healed a bit, whereas each of us has... heh heh heh, gained a lot.

He couldn’t wait to find a place with only themselves present to share everything, and his eagerness was not any less than Bai Chi’s.

Jing Zhichen noticed Qin Xin wasn’t hurt, and his mood brightened up as well.

He wanted to make some sarcastic remarks to the White Robe Great Tutor outside the courtyard.

But turning his head, he found the man by the purple spruces had vanished.

Like Jing Zhichen’s gaze, Qin Xin was also searching all around.

Why was no one there?

Clearly, just now in the little dark room, she heard Nalan Ye Jue’s voice.

It was precisely that voice that guided her to finally gain control over her spiritual power, to wield it flexibly.

Could it have been an illusion?

Girls’ dormitory.

As soon as Qin Xin entered, she found the room lights on, and the girls in the dorm were all wide awake, sitting cross-legged on their beds with red teary eyes.

Usually, they would long have gone to bed for their beauty sleep.

”You all...”

As soon as Qin Xin spoke, the girls sprang from their beds, and the pancake-faced dorm leader was the first to rush to her with a bear hug, ”Ow ow ow, Sister Xin, we were so worried about you...”

The other two girls also hugged her, ”Sister Xin, the tutor was too cruel, you’ve suffered...”

”Sister Xin, did you escape? Will you be caught and taken back? Hurry, hide under my blanket, that way they won’t find you if they come...”

Qin Xin helplessly patted their heads, ”...”

Turns out they were waiting for her, these silly girls.
