Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack

Chapter 1725: Chapter 1705:

Luo Qianqian awkwardly smiled, why does it seem like every time after she does cultivation, she gets hungry? Didn’t they say cultivation only consumes spiritual energy? Why does it feel like it’s depleting the energy stored in her body?

Looking at it this way, it’s understandable why there are no overweight people among cultivators, right?

Because every time they cultivate, they’re being drained...

Maybe she could start a weight-loss program in the future...

After having her fill, she heard that He Wenyu was going to the Book Garden tomorrow, which left Luo Qianqian a bit stunned. On one side, she had visiting family, and on the other, she had her duty to her teacher. It’s really quite a tough choice...

But soon she smiled at He Wenyu: "You hurry up and have a look, then I’ll go accompany them first, and if it doesn’t work out the day after tomorrow, just say I’ve got something to do." She waved her hand casually, but Luo Qianqian seriously promised, "Don’t worry, I won’t say anything I shouldn’t." Like... the gossip about Zhang Sheng.

Seeing Luo Qianqian’s eyes filled with mischief, He Wenyu suddenly felt a deep sense of helplessness rise from within.

This kind of gossip; it’s obvious Luo Qianqian wouldn’t just blurt out, okay? After all these years of friendship, is there really no trust at all?

"Alright, just say my teacher asked me to do something, anyway, we’re not exactly free to do anything at any time now." He Wenyu sighed, "But I think it’s better if they go back before our monthly assessment, I just feel uneasy about it."

"And about the monthly assessment, no matter who you ask, no matter how many Glory Points you spend, it’s always in vain... You can’t find any useful information, it’s like people from other grades avoid talking about it like the plague." Luo Qianqian furrowed her brows, puzzled. A monthly assessment, isn’t it just like a monthly exam? Just a test, how can it be so secretive? Is it worth everyone being so tight-lipped, not willing to say even half a word?

"To be precise, especially the Yellow Class, almost as if we haven’t even asked before they get scared off, very afraid we’ll bring up this topic," He Wenyu added.

The two of them were sitting together, and from their actions, it seemed like they were just relaxing after a late-night snack, but their conversation was quite serious.

"Not just the Yellow Class, the Mystery Class is about the same; if there’s a difference, maybe it’s with the Heaven Class and Earth Class?" Luo Qianqian also felt a bit melancholic, not a shred of useful information...

Even if they knew of the Tian Ji horse race strategy, if they can’t learn about other things, isn’t it all in vain?

"Those two classes, students from other grades seem to look down on us, very disdainful? Our grade is okay, but it’s obvious they’re not keen on associating with us..." He Wenyu sighed. The two looked at each other, both showing a look of helplessness.

"But fortunately, our unknown means they can’t get any information on us either."

"Do you think they’d waste time gathering information?"

The two sighed and returned to their rooms. However, the old man who returned to his room after eating his fill had a gleam in his eyes. These two little girls even knew how to use money to buy information?

But... There’s no precedent, so no one dares to do it, right?

After all, the original intention of the academy’s establishment was to create a world where everything could be exchanged with data, whether it’s necessities or even people, or life. Unfortunately, the cruelty of the academy has yet to be discovered by these people.

People who can stand at the peak of the world naturally need more than just talent; they need means, otherwise why is it them standing up there, not someone else?

Luck is the modest word of the strong, fate is the excuse of the weak.

As for destiny, if it could truly be understood, why would so many lose themselves on the journey to find opportunities?

Fu Qing also looked up at the moon; he liked the moon, cold and pure. Like a Snow Lotus from beyond the Great Wall, elegant and unparalleled, blooming proudly in the cold, and like a Lotus from the mud, untainted by impurities.

But he also knew very well that such things would never exist in this world again, no matter what it is; as long as it’s in this world, it will inevitably be shrouded in a layer of mist. Whether it’s objects or people, or even the ethereal feelings.

Early the next morning, after He Wenyu finished making food, Luo Qianqian took two bites and ran off, leaving He Wenyu silently following Fu Qing to the Book Garden, as she... lacked common sense.

She just didn’t expect that this time, Fu Qing directly took her upstairs...

He Wenyu was filled with caution, as she had learned from her previous visit that the upper floors of the Book Garden were off-limits, right? Is it really okay to go so close? Since Fu Qing is taking her, it should be fine, right? But Fu Qing didn’t explicitly ask her to follow, and she found herself stuck at the staircase, unsure of what to do.

It seemed Fu Qing had already gone inside...

Maybe she could just look around the first floor? But the opportunity to go up was right in front of her...

"Um... Senior Brother, should I follow you up?" He Wenyu hesitated for a moment, but still spoke up, feeling uneasy about breaking the rules, and even more afraid of missing the opportunity.

Upstairs, Fu Qing nodded in satisfaction; she didn’t rush blindly, but she also didn’t give up hope, which was good.

"Come up," he said after a moment of silence.

Waiting for an answer made He Wenyu even more anxious; she didn’t know if it was a rejection or affirmation, or if he simply hadn’t heard her?

If it was a yes, or if he hadn’t heard, she could just ask again, but if it was a no, wouldn’t that be awkward?

Upon hearing the affirmative response, the anxious expression on He Wenyu’s face vanished, and she was glad she asked; otherwise, she would have regretted it, right?

Thinking this, she went upstairs.

Unlike downstairs, the upper floor wasn’t lined with a dazzling array of books or tightly packed shelves; instead, there were just a few tables and some bookcases.

"The second cabinet from the left," Fu Qing found a spot and calmly started reading and transcribing, not caring what He Wenyu was up to.

He Wenyu pursed her lips, went over to open the cabinet, only to find that there were still many densely packed books...

For a moment, she looked back in astonishment, finding it hard to believe and wanting to ask Fu Qing whether it was all of them? But a line of text prevented her from doing so.

At the top, a book had some small words on the cover: Water Spirit Body.

Thinking of Luo Qianqian, He Wenyu silently pulled out the book, without asking too many questions.

Fu Qing naturally noticed her actions and also saw her hesitation and curiosity.

Reading always begins with interest.

And right now, for He Wenyu, maybe nothing else was of interest, but anything concerning Luo Qianqian certainly was.

This was also why he waited a while before responding earlier, as finding books that would interest He Wenyu was no easy feat. Especially with so many books in the Book Garden...
