Qing Zhan thought that those words were not directed toward her. She raised her head and looked intensely at Nangong Lie before she realized that it was indeed directed at her. After thinking about it, she said, “The Princess Consort is kind to me.”
“Really?” Nangong Lie sneered fiercely, “So, you don’t plan to ever come back?”
Go back? Qing Zhan’s eyebrows frowned. Was she not the person he did not want to see the most?
Helian Wei Wei laughed lazily, “Of course not, classmate, don’t forget that Qing Zhan is one of my people now. Please sit down and don’t disturb our class.”
“Disturb your class?” Nangong Lie’s eyes were cold, but his face remained evil. “This is the first time I’m hearing that Miss ‘High and Mighty’ Helian will take the class seriously.”
Helian Wei Wei did not speak, but put her hand on Qing Zhan’s shoulder, and raised the corner of her lips toward Nangong Lie in a fierce yet graceful way.
Nangong Lie did not look at her but fixed his gaze on the student. Seeing that Qing Zhan did not help defend him at all, his hands tightened under the long sleeves, and the smile at the corners of his mouth grew wider. “As you wish, go wherever you like. If you ever get bullied, you’d better not come crawling back!”
Rustle.
Nangong Lie’s turned the pages of the book in hand loudly, which made the major-domo lady who had followed him bit her lips fearfully. “What’s wrong?”
“Nothing.” Nangong Lie grinned and reassured with a soothing voice, “Did I scare you?”
The major-domo lady looked at the student and said, “A little.”
“Sorry, read your book.” Nangong Lie was still Nangong Lie.
Major-domo lady did not understand where on earth did his chilliness come from.
Qing Zhan did not speak from the beginning throughout the end. She took out the brushes that Helian Wei Wei needed and arranged them in a tidy position with calm and diligence.
Helian Wei Wei looked at them both and whispered, “If you don’t want to stay here and watch these things, go out for a stroll. It’s not a problem. I tend to sleep in class, so you don’t have to suffer here with me.”
Qing Zhan raised her head and said, “I will be by your side, Princess Consort.”
“Then, don’t look like you’re about to cry.” Helian Wei Wei stretched out her hand and rubbed her head, then smiled faintly, “It’s just a man. In this world, there may be only a few other things but there is no doubt that there is a lot of men, especially in the White Academy. Tell me when you have found one that you like.”
“Why should I let you know, Princess Consort?” Qing Zhan questioned.
“Investigate him, then make him yours quickly.” Helian Wei Wei’s voice was very light and it carried a sense of laziness, “I have many younger brothers, I will introduce to you when the time is right, not to mention that a few of them are not bad.”
Qing Zhan, “…Why do you sound as though a woman is fighting for a husband, as though she is a bandit?”
Even if the voice from this side was low enough, but as a Genius Worshipper, he could still hear their conversation. His grip tightened.
“The best way to forget your previous relationship is to meet a new man.” Helian Wei Wei smiled. “Qing Zhan, in the end, you still have to start over.”
Start over?
Qing Zhan paused and said, “Fine, I’ll go.”
When Nangong Lie heard those words, he was shocked for a moment, and then he laughed unconsciously.
He looked like he wanted to say more, but then he saw the teacher sauntering in with a big smile. The white robe that he was wearing made the slightly fat man look like a happy Maitreya Buddha.
“Settle down, settle down a bit!” The teacher raised his arm and said, “There is a new student joining us today, everyone please welcome him.”
As soon as he finished, a slender and tall-looking man came in.
Almost at the moment when the man stepped foot into the room, it was as though all of the air in the room was sucked. Everyone fell silent. It was so quiet that one could hear a pin drop.
Helian Wei Wei looked up and immediately understood why everyone became so quiet.
Not only did the man stand out a lot in a crowd, but he was also superior to Baili Jia Jue.
He had bright white teeth and dark-blue hair like satin draped over his shoulders. His shirt collar was not stained at all, his jade-like face was getting all the admiration from the crowd. His star-like eyebrows were like the first snowfall, forcefully suppressing the light of this room.
He had a cultured and refined smile on his lips as if he had stepped out of an ancient painting, bringing a faint aroma of medicine with him, which made people feel that the slightest glance at him would stain him. However, they could not help themselves from wanting to approach him either.
However, his face was familiar to Helian Wei Wei.
Although they did not often meet, she had escaped a robbery by hiding in his carriage before.
Even her martial practice had something to do with him.
Sigh.
The magnificent and incomparable Master Wushuang had come to be a new student, and he was also arranged to join the Inferior Compound…
Helian Wei Wei smirked. This is going to be fun.
“God, who is this?”
Sure enough, exclamations followed.
The teacher looked around at the stunned students and adjusted his glasses with his hand, then said, “Because of his health issue, this student was late in admission. Alright, let the new student introduce himself now.”
When the teacher finished, he took a look at the man beside him. The man nodded slightly and stepped forward slowly.
“I’m Jing Boshuang.” The man’s lips curved into a faint smile, as he murmured the words smoothly in a deep voice.
Jing Boshuang?
He only said those few words, but it was like throwing a stone into still water, causing it to ripple instantly.
The quiet hall suddenly turned chaotic.
Everyone was whispering to each other about everything that they knew of him.
Haven’t you heard of the surname ‘Jing’ around the Capital?
Did he come from somewhere else?
Don’t tell me he’s the same as the other two who are in the Inferior Compound…
The crowd of students was deep in thought, they could not help but set their gazes on Baili Jia Jue and Nangong Lie.
Comparing the two, one was lazier with his chin resting on his hand and his face indifferent. His long fingers contrasted sharply with the old scrolls in his hands, and when the light shone on him, he looked so stunning.
On the other hand, the other one would put his hand on the back of the chair, raised his eyebrows and cast his eyes on the man who called himself ‘Jing Boshuang’.
Then, he raised his leg to block the man’s way.
The man seemed to have a very good temper, and his eyes were gleaming. He glanced at the Nangong Lie fiercely and said, “It has been a long while since we last met.” He hesitated, but in the end, he still chose to play safe and addressed him with the title, “Seventh Master.”
Nangong Lie ranked seventh in the family, which only a few people knew of this.
People listened to what he was addressed as and looked at him with surprise, “Do they know each other?”
“Long time no see, Master Shuang.” Nangong Lie retrieved his legs as he pondered and said, “I didn’t expect that you will come to the academy to learn too.”
Master Wushuang curled his lower lip and cleared his throat gently. Although the condition of his body looked very bad, this did not make his grandeur to be weakened at all. Instead, he was gentle and indifferent with irresistible indifference, “Even Seventh Master is here, so why can’t I be here as well?”
Qing Zhan thought that those words were not directed toward her. She raised her head and looked intensely at Nangong Lie before she realized that it was indeed directed at her. After thinking about it, she said, “The Princess Consort is kind to me.”
“Really?” Nangong Lie sneered fiercely, “So, you don’t plan to ever come back?”
