Chapter 39: A Moth Against a Flame "What are you doing?" A red figure rushed into the classroom from outside like a drop of lava falling into a snowdrift. It instantly split the crowd in a clear chasm. Professor Yi, who was always smiling, frowned. She glanced at the third-year students who were restraining me and scolded, "Let go of him now!" Almost the next second, I felt the force binding me diminish by more than half. I suddenly exerted my strength, took the opportunity to break free from…- 246.6 K • Ongoing
- Chapter 38: Blasphemy "Do you think that since I won't live to see the truth come out, you can lie and hide it as you please?" Nobles don’t like to look up at people. His lower position and my higher position were not conducive to show my sincerity. So as soon as he finished speaking, I bent one leg and knelt down next to his wheelchair so that he could look down at me. "No, of course not. I just... was afraid of hurting your feelings." Zong Yanlei glared at me: "Are you afraid I'll be hurt,…

- Chapter 37: Nine Out of Ten Gambles End in Loss "Hurry up, hurry up, don't miss the press conference..." "Almost done... Haha, you lowly commoner, this is what you deserve. Why don't you look in the mirror? How can someone like you be worthy of going to the same school as us!" Inside the locked toilet stall, a bucket of ice water was poured down from above, instantly soaking me. This happened when I was 17. Upon hearing the words "press conference," I immediately recalled the corresponding…

- Chapter 36: Farewell, Jiang Man The hunt had only just begun, so it was unlikely that the hunters would have made any long-distance movements. Of the three hunters on the first floor, one must have come down from the second floor. Including the one I killed in the Mirror Hall, there were probably no hunters active on the second floor right now. As the main floor of the Baroque building, the second floor was the most central and luxurious living and reception space. Nobles spared no effort in…

- Chapter 35: Moral Awakening Due to the difficult transportation and numerous risks along the way in the early years, spices were once as precious as gold and were regarded as a symbol of wealth and status by the nobles of Penglai. They even felt that it was undignified and impolite to have a natural body odor. In the past, when I was delivering letters to the princess, I would often have to attend banquets and spend ten minutes in the fragrant crowd. It made me feel like my very bones and flesh were…

- Chapter 34: As Long as I Don't Die, There's Always a Chance After A-Qi and I made our appearance, we were taken away from the room separately. A-Qi kept looking back at me as he left, his eyes filled with uncertainty. "Don't be afraid," I mouthed to him. He must have figured out which words they were, because he nodded. Two clowns led me through the maze-like mansion, eventually taking me to a spacious dining room. They unchained my hands and feet, threw me into a huge cage, and then left…

- Chapter 33: The Good Shepherd Lays Down His Life for the Flock The next morning, as dazzling spots of light pierced through the glass door of the balcony and quietly jumped onto my eyelids, I frowned and struggled to wake up. Facing the luxurious decorations in the room that were both strange and familiar, I was momentarily disoriented and didn't know what day it was. Am I sixteen or twenty-five? I wondered if it's because I'd been in the metaverse for too long that I was experiencing some side…

- Chapter 32: I didn't realize you were so sentimental "You always say that." Zong Yanlei rubbed my lower lip with his finger, then probed into my mouth. He pressed down on my tongue with a hint of punishment. "When I catch you, you quickly admit your mistake. But you don't really think you did anything wrong." "No..." I mumbled, biting down gently and then quickly releasing. "No?" The ice pack stopped between my shoulder blades, then slid down again. Zong Yanlei pressed against my tongue,…

- Chapter 31: Pavlov's Aftereffects "You... how did you get down from up there?" The building I lived in had only three floors, and I happened to be assigned to the top floor. Although it only had three floors, the total height was over ten meters due to the considerable height of each floor. It was a height from which it was difficult to fall unharmed. How come I never noticed before that he had such athletic talent? "The downstairs door is locked," Zong Yanlei replied confidently. We were…

- Chapter 30: Smokescreen Strategy "What the Sun God team can give you, we can give you too, and even more. Everyone is saying that Zong Yanlei will retire next year. Instead of wasting your time and talent trying to get to know newcomers, why don't you become my navigator?" Seeing that I hesitated to take the business card, Leander chuckled, stuffed the card into my breast pocket, and then patted it suggestively. "What Zong Yanlei can give you, I can give you too. My skills are very good, want to…
