Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack

Chapter 1714: Chapter 1694: Fu Qing

The dean looked puzzled after hearing the words; he had thought about asking, after all, he had inquired about this matter before, but the other party didn’t say much, only that the timing was not right yet.

Now that she has come, does it mean that ’the timing is right’?

But what exactly is this timing? He couldn’t figure it out and was left wondering with no explanation, so he decided to let it go and stop pondering over it.

What on earth is this timing? Ever since he saw the name of that mirror, he has felt his heart fluttering with unease.

There is always this feeling that there is some hidden tale he doesn’t know, but what could this hidden tale be? He indeed couldn’t figure it out no matter how he racked his brain.

Does the other’s strength even have a reason to scheme against their academy? But then, why?

The academy owes its current fame, towering above other sects, to that person’s efforts and promotion.

This is also why they have no choice but to accept it.

Seeing the Boss’s face full of seriousness, the other six fell into silence one after another.

However, soon enough, Laoer let out a heavy breath: "No worries, I’ll check it out. Surely I can find something, however small."

"Then you’ll be occupied with that," the Boss also sighed. It wouldn’t be good to investigate overtly, but being discovered investigating covertly is even worse; this is why they haven’t dared to take any extra measures so far.

But that person’s power, even now, is such that the entire continent would tremble if they just stamp a foot; there should be no reason to act in secret, right? They could act openly and rightfully.

In a world where power reigns supreme, power is everything.

When Laoqi and Laoer were heading back, Laoer had changed into a student’s outfit from there, not forgetting to casually pin a badge: "I am your Chief Senior Disciple, you know."

Laoqi: "..." I don’t have a student as old as you!!!

Moreover, who doesn’t know anything...

"And what are you doing here?" Laoqi glanced at Laoer a couple of times, seeming unable to detect any difference just based on looks...

"Isn’t it simple? Failed advancement, suffered a backlash, feeling low, that’s why healing here," Laoer obviously had already thought through his story, lightly patting Laoqi’s shoulder: "Then I’ll be counting on you, ’teacher’."

Laoqi instantly shivered...

Being called that by these squinting eyes, it just makes your hair stand up, doesn’t it?

It’s simply too terrifying!

It feels like being stared down by some evil wolf or some sinister sly animal, waiting for an opportunity to take revenge...

"Don’t call me that, I always feel like nothing good comes with you calling me!" Laoqi rolled his eyes, turning around and continuing toward his little courtyard.

What else can he do? He has to accept it, right?

"Remember, call me by my name, teacher," Laoer was quite at ease, with no guilt in pretending to be younger.

Laoqi gritting his teeth: "Hurry up and go!" Hearing Laoer call him teacher just made his skin crawl, uncontrollably giving him goosebumps all over.

"Just call me and let me hear, teacher," Laoer continued to say.

Laoqi helplessly looked at his arms bristling with goosebumps, feeling a chill: "Fine! Fu Qing!"

This guy’s bad taste really hasn’t diminished over the years!

Fu Qing, father...

Sure enough, Laoer curved his lips into a smile, appearing in good spirits: "Understood, teacher..."

Laoqi: "..."

...

The next morning, as soon as Luo Qianqian got up, she found a dejected-looking man in the courtyard, sitting in a corner and staring at the sky with a dispirited expression.

And he was clearly wearing the same uniform as Mo.

Suddenly dumbfounded, she had no idea where this person popped up from.

"Shiqi Shiqi." Laoqi speechlessly looked at the disguised Fu Qing early in the morning and took a deep breath to call Luo Qianqian over.

"Who is this?" Luo Qianqian asked defensively, was he someone caught stealing and then beaten up by the old man? "Is he here to steal?"

"..." Fu Qing expressed he did not want to speak.

The old man, however, secretly found it funny in his heart, though he put on a distressed expression: "This is my senior disciple, failed to advance and suffered a backlash, I brought him to unwind."

"Oh..." Luo Qianqian looked at this man, nodded in sudden realization, no wonder he looked like... like a groom who just got married and hasn’t left bed for three days.

"Then... we don’t need to bother with him, right?" Luo Qianqian asked.

This sort of thing, she hadn’t been through it, how would she know what to do?

"No worries, he’ll get better slowly, I trust him." The old man put on a gentle semblance, trust filled his eyes, but he patted Luo Qianqian’s shoulder the next moment: "Oh, Shiqi, don’t forget to bring him a meal."

"Oh... Is he paying for his meals?" Luo Qianqian couldn’t help but ask.

Seriously, the old man is He Wenyu’s teacher; she didn’t mind losing some Glory Points mainly because she wanted a good deal.

But this ’stranger’ wanting to eat for free? Not gonna happen, even eating in the cafeteria costs money, right?

"..." The old man also found it funny yet helpless, still nodding: "Relax, he has plenty of Glory Points, even a meal costing a thousand Glory Points is affordable."

Fu Qing: "..." Are you raising the price unscrupulously!

Even the most expensive cafeteria meal costs only a hundred Glory Points!

But when the smell wafted, he had no more objections.

Alright, a thousand it is...

"Should we cook some porridge for him or something?" Luo Qianqian looked at the ever-statue-like Fu Qing and couldn’t help but ask worrily.

After all... her common sense told her that instant noodles have no nutrition, although, she generously added an egg.

"No need, it’s fine, don’t worry." The old man wouldn’t let Luo Qianqian cook separately for Fu Qing, he hasn’t even enjoyed such treatment.

Watching Luo Qianqian carrying two bowls of noodles into the house, the old man served a bowl to Fu Qing: "Here, have some food."

Fu Qing looked at Laoqi’s face filled with ’kindness’, feeling his teeth itch with anger, but still trembling slightly and spoke in a hoarse voice: "Teacher..."

Laoqi immediately shivered once more, quickly shoving the bowl to him, but mindful of the two in the house, still spoke kindly: "Have something tasty, no matter how much regret, what’s done can’t be undone, right?"

Fu Qing was full of discomfort, but still nodded.

After receiving the noodles, he promptly buried his head in eating, while the old man quickly headed into the kitchen.

Joking aside, with Fu Qing here, he needs to speed up eating!

Otherwise, he might not have enough to eat thanks to the competition!

That lazy girl is already reluctant to cook more than once a day, doesn’t that mean he’s innocently going to be hungry?

He didn’t even consider that even if they didn’t eat for a short while, it wouldn’t affect them at all.

But he overlooked the temptation of Glory Points to these two...
