Gu Jiao was dozing off, how could she have any idea what the teacher was talking about?

She gave Zhong Ding a meaningful look, and Zhong Ding quietly opened his own book and subtly pointed to the annotations he had written.

A twitch appeared at the corner of Gu Jiaoʼs mouth, brother, the annotation you made is in the State of Qingʼs language...

In the end, Gu Jiao couldn’t answer and was punished by the teacher to copy the text fifty times.

Gu Jiao gritted her teeth and sat down.

Great.

Things were going haywire

Even worse, Gu Jiao was summoned to the teacher’s office of Mingxin Hall after class and received a disciplinary notice from the academy.

Gu Jiao shook slightly, ”Why am I receiving a disciplinary notice?”

Teacher Jiang of Mingxin Hall said, ”Students of the academy are not allowed to enter brothels, otherwise, they will receive a disciplinary notice!”

Gu Jiao: ”...”

Tianqiong Academy had its own cafeteria, and at noon, Gu Jiao and Gu Xiaoshun ate there.

The meal expenses were included in the tuition fees, so there was no need to pay extra.

”Big sis!” Gu Xiaoshun cheerfully came to the door of Mingxin Hall.

Gu Jiao put away her annoyance over the disciplinary notice and looked at Gu Xiaoshun, ”How were your classes today?”

Gu Xiaoshun replied, ”Pretty good.”

Gu Jiao asked, ”Did you doze off?”

”Ahem, yes.” Wasnʼt dozing off a standard part of class?

Gu Jiao paused, ”Did the teacher call you out?”

Gu Xiaoshun quickly shook his head, ”No, he didnʼt.”

So why was she the only one caught for dozing off?

It was all because of Mu Qingchen!

She knew he wouldn’t let her off easily——being kidnapped by her that night was a lifetime shame for someone like Young Master Qingchen, and he was determined to get back at her in order to regain his dignity.

Gu Jiao watched Mu Qingchen’s retreating figure with narrowed eyes.

”Big sis, why are you staring at him?” Gu Xiaoshun noticed Gu Jiao’s gaze.

Gu Jiao looked away, ”Nothing, he’s handsome. Let’s go eat lunch.”

”Oh.” Mentioning food got Gu Xiaoshun excited, but then he thought of something, leaned close to Gu Jiao and whispered, ”But big sis, how can you find another man handsome? Brother-in-law will be jealous.”

Gu Jiao: I just said that casually! It’s all because you asked.

Fortunately, Gu Xiaoshun was more interested in food and immediately stopped caring about it, ”Weʼve spent so much money, I wonder if the cafeteria food is any good.”

The two arrived at the cafeteria, where Mu Qingchen was also present. Everyone in the cafeteria was watching him, but he exuded an aura of not wanting to be approached, to the extent that no one dared to come forward to bother him.

”Qingchen!”

On the second floor, a young scholar waved at Mu Qingchen.

Mu Qingchen glanced at him and walked up the stairs.

Lunch consisted of steamed buns with three kinds of meat and vegetable side dishes, enough to fill you up. You could also eat as much as you wanted and get more if needed.

The first floor was crowded and noisy, while the second floor looked quieter. Gu Jiao planned to take Gu Xiaoshun upstairs, but they were blocked by the square-faced guy and his group at the staircase.

Square-face, having been humiliated by Mu Qingchen, didnʼt dare to take it out on him, so he directed his anger at Gu Jiao, ”Xiao Liulang, where do you think you’re going?”

”He’s going upstairs to find Young Master Qingchen!” Said Triangular-eyes with a mocking laugh.

Square-face folded his arms and pointed upstairs with his thumbs, arrogantly saying, ”That’s not a place for you people from the lower states.”

Zhong Ding, seeing Gu Jiao being blocked from a distance, quickly put down his bowl and walked over. He pulled Gu Jiao away, whispering, ”The food upstairs isnʼt for us ordinary students.”

Only noble students like Mu Qingchen had the right to go up there.

Gu Xiaoshun grumbled, ”What kind of academy is this? So many rules.”

Gu Jiao was just looking for a quiet place and wasnʼt interested in the food upstairs, so she let it go.

”Xiaoshun, letʼs go.” Gu Jiao said.

”Okay!” Gu Xiaoshun quickly followed.

Square-face and his group were all dumbfounded.

Triangular-eyes pointed at Gu Jiaoʼs back and said, ”Wait, did he... did he just leave?”

Shouldnʼt they have argued with them a bit? What was up with these people from the lower states? How could they leave just like that? Didn’t they want to go upstairs? If not, why were they acting so high and mighty?

They couldnʼt even start a fight over this?

Triangular-eyes wondered, ”Does he not take us seriously?”

Gu Jiao found a quiet corner to eat with Gu Xiaoshun.

Gu Xiaoshun loved meat, so Gu Jiao gave him all the braised pork from her bowl.

Though they could eat to their fill, the braised pork could not be taken again; each person only got one serving.

Gu Xiaoshun said, ”Big sis, you should eat it yourself.”

Gu Jiao replied, ”You eat it. I canʼt finish it.”

In a private room on the second floor, a handsome young man with a white hair tie looked at Mu Qingchen and smiled, ”What wind blew you here? Before, when I called you to class, you never showed up. Yet, youʼve come two days in a row now, even coming to the cafeteria for meals. Am I seeing things?”

Mu Qingchen didnʼt respond, his gaze sweeping over to the corner on the first floor where someone was giving all their braised pork to their younger brother. Then he looked at the lavish meal before him and asked, ”Isnʼt this too much food for two people?”

”This is still modest; itʼs just eight dishes.” The young man with a white hair tie said.

After a moment, the young man noticed Mu Qingchen glancing unintentionally at a particular spot.

The young man smiled and looked towards Gu Jiao in the corner, ”What? Is that kid bothering you? Understandable, heʼs so ugly, quite an eyesore. Donʼt worry, in less than three days, Iʼll make sure he canʼt stay at Tianqiong Academy anymore!”

Mu Qingchen glanced at him, ”Try it if youʼre not afraid of death.”

”Does cousin mean I canʼt handle someone from a lower state?” The young man had overheard that the boy with a birthmark on his face was from a lower state.

Then, realizing something, he looked at Mu Qingchen incredulously, ”Could it be youʼre protecting him?”

”Youʼre overthinking.” Mu Qingchen pushed his bowl of rice towards him. ”Eat your meal and stop causing trouble for your parents.”

Mentioning his parents silenced the young man with white hair tie.

PLEASE CHECK OUT OUR NEW PROJECT:

Description:

In the suspenseful supernatural novel “Records of Mortals,” Jiang Baiyan, once a solitary and impoverished youth, finds refuge in the Shi family of Chang’an due to his extraordinary bloodline. With his clear and captivating peach blossom eyes, this seemingly innocent young man conceals a fanatical and malevolent lunatic within. Destined to succumb to darkness amidst hardship and degradation, he becomes a harbinger of chaos.

When Shi Dai suddenly transmigrates, she takes on the role of the Shi family’s young lady, the one who subjects him to countless trials, eventually leading to her demise.

The twist? She never got to finish reading the novel.

From what she knew of the plot, Jiang Baiyan was just a silent, timid, and often bullied pitiable character.

***

Jiang Baiyan had never encountered someone like Shi Dai.

After he had slaughtered all the evil creatures in the garden, the blood-stained young man, exuding a murderous aura, approached her step by step, his lips curling into a malicious smile, ”Scared?”

Shi Dai responded, “You’re really amazing! I applaud you until I spin like a spiral and fly around the moon three hundred times! And also——you have dimples when you smile!”

Jiang Baiyan: ...?

—

After seeing her at a lantern festival with another man, Jiang Baiyan lowered his eyes, his fingers twirling her hair. He said in a mocking and sinister tone, ”The mansion in the western suburbs...if I hide you there, no one will find you, right?”

Shi Dai replied, ”Does it come with meals and lodging? Can I sleep in everyday? Oh, and your cooking is the best!”

Jiang Baiyan: ...?

—

Jiang Baiyan was supposed to dislike her, even hate her, but as their separation drew near, his eyes turned red and he grabbed her sleeve, pleading, ”Donʼt abandon me, alri—”

Shi Dai responded, ”Alright, alright, I’ll only have you. Mwah.”

Jiang Baiyan: ...?

He hasnʼt finished his lines yet though…
