Rebirth: A Cinderella's Counterattack

Chapter 1842: Chapter 1822:

The days are rather mundane, but soon the old man appeared with a serious expression, showing up in front of the yard and conveniently took away a pot of soup that He Wenyu hadn’t finished making...

Mo was not surprised to see the old man, continuing to eat his food as if nothing had happened, but He Wenyu seemed very agitated...

"It’s not done yet!" He Wenyu’s voice had no effect as the old man was oblivious.

Meanwhile, Luo Qianqian curiously observed the old man’s tattered robes, frowning slightly, and approached Mo: "Is he busy because of that matter we overheard last time?"

Mo glanced at the old man upon hearing this and then nodded slowly: "Judging by his appearance, he must have lost, otherwise he wouldn’t be so disheveled."

Luo Qianqian realized with a face of disbelief: "I thought his combat strength should be among the top in the academy."

"It’s more accurate to say his nose is among the top in the academy, and he’s not the combat type anyway." Mo did not deny the matter of being the top, but it’s clear this kind of thing shouldn’t be faced alone by the old man; at least, the deputy principal should come forward, with at least three people showing respect for the matter, right?

"Don’t think I didn’t hear!" The old man came over, glared at Luo Qianqian fiercely: "It’s because you caused that Hundred Flavors Mushroom business! You guys burning it delayed the outbreak, which was a good deed! You can’t shirk responsibility for this matter!"

Luo Qianqian looked innocent, hiding behind Mo: "I know nothing..."

Mo also shielded Luo Qianqian, nodding seriously: "She knows nothing."

"You’re the same! Don’t think just because you’re about to graduate that you can stay outside! Your graduation assessment is to ensure that stuff there doesn’t fall into the hands of outsiders from the academy!" The old man looked at Mo with dissatisfaction, never seen someone tells lies so honestly and could even be overprotective of another! Can you reason? Know nothing!

Mo glanced at the old man: "You know better than I do what my graduation assessment is."

The old man was momentarily speechless, feeling a bit at a loss, glaring at Mo for a long time before finally sighing: "Inspect the materials with Fu Qing these days, the freshman battle team should be formed after next month’s assessment."

"Freshman battle team? What’s that?" He Wenyu asked curiously.

After all, here, both she and Luo Qianqian are freshmen, and the Freshman Yellow Class reports here every day for food. Especially Di Jun, he is almost always the first to arrive. You wonder if he sets an alarm to be so punctual.

"You’ll know soon enough, why ask? Hurry up and do your thing." The old man took another sip, reluctantly putting the pot back on the fire, it’s really not done...

"This pot is mine, don’t give it to anyone else, I’ve left a soul mark!" The old man warned He Wenyu.

He Wenyu was speechless, excuse me, who leaves a soul mark on a soup pot?

She silently threw two Devil Peppers into the pot and continued making her food.

Luo Qianqian was a bit confused: "Wasn’t it supposed to be a knockout battle this time?" That’s why Long Tu didn’t make a move last time?

"Yes, but that’s just the monthly assessment, do you think there are only that kind of assessments in the academy? Otherwise, why do fewer and fewer people stay till the end?" The old man looked at Luo Qianqian disdainfully, pursing his lips: "A person like you will be eliminated sooner or later, you don’t train seriously."

"..." Luo Qianqian puffed her cheeks angrily, but couldn’t refute it. She indeed trains less, which is undeniable; however, it doesn’t mean her little training equates to weak strength, okay?

She only trains in the bathtub every day, sleeping once she leaves the tub, but her growth is still notable...

Used to training in the bathtub, it always feels awkward training without it.

Nevertheless, she is adapting so that if there is no bathtub in the future, it won’t mean she can’t train at all. Even after bathing, even if not deliberately training, the spiritual energy naturally circulates through the body’s meridians, showing no significant difference.

But soon she had a look of oddity: "How do you know I don’t train seriously?"

The old man paused, then naturally responded: "Obviously because of your strength..."

Seeing Mo facepalming and lowering his head, the old man immediately felt something was off, then carefully looked at Luo Qianqian, who also slightly squinted, openly scrutinizing the old man as if trying to find something wrong on his face.

"How did your strength increase so quickly?!" The old man suddenly stared at Luo Qianqian in disbelief, all in all, seemed utterly incredulous.

Luo Qianqian: "Didn’t you say I haven’t trained seriously? In the end, how did you make your judgment?" She turned to Mo, only to see Mo looking innocent and honest, then turned back to the old man.

"Judging by looks? Obviously, he is also suspicious, why just stare at me? Because I’m an elder? Then I’m young now!" The old man, looking at Luo Qianqian’s gaze, was instantly indignant, pulling off his beard.

Mo looked at the old man’s behavior, speechless, does this count as covering up?

Luo Qianqian sneered twice, her mouth making a disdainful sound: "Tsk."

Old man: "??? What? Am I ugly? After all, I have captivated thousands of young ladies, charming across the Five Lakes and Four Seas, should I need..."

The old man was jumping, next second Fu Qing appeared, covering the old man’s mouth: "Let bygones be bygones, the principal’s looking for you." The voice was light, yet made the old man quickly stop his childish behavior.

Released by Fu Qing, the old man still looked at Luo Qianqian indignantly: "Wait, when I come back, I’ll talk to you more! Don’t run!" With that, he swiftly left.

Watching the old man leave, Luo Qianqian rolled her eyes: "Even if you’re ’unique and unrivaled in the cosmos, the vastness of time, above and below, the most handsome ever,’ you still need someone else to praise you, self-claiming doesn’t count, okay?"

He Wenyu agreed wholeheartedly, then turned to Fu Qing: "Senior Brother, long time no see, want to try some new dishes? Today’s should be a spiritual power restorative, give it a try?" Her face full of smiles, warming Fu Qing’s heart as he nodded and approached.

If he weren’t busy at the academy recently, he would certainly come over every day! This small yard has become his most favorite place, no exceptions!
