333 Return Journey
Chen Yuan cleared his throat and said in a serious tone, “Lu Benwei, I’m not joking. Ever since the appearance of monsters and the start of the era of everyone changing their classes, countless people have lost their lives! However, there’s only one kind of people who has gained great benefits. That’s them.”
After a pause, Chen Yuan’s voice became gentle again.
“So, Lu Benwei, your enemies aren’t just monsters.”
“I understand, Mr. Principal.” Lu Benwei nodded.
“I’ve said too much. I hope you won’t tell anyone about tonight’s conversation,” Chen Yuan said.
“Understood!” Lu Benwei responded in a deep voice.
…
After leaving Chen Yuan’s office, Lu Benwei let out a deep sigh. Shrugging his shoulders, he went to the restaurant where Chu Yan and the others were.
After a simple celebration, the five of them set off on their return journey.
Lin Feng’s flight was tonight, so he left first. Hai Yue was a local, so she went home directly after the celebration.
Zhao Xiaoqi and Chu Yan were both from Yanjing and they were high school classmates. The two were supposed to go back together, but Zhao Xiaoqi learned that Chu Yan would not be back to Yanjing this year.
“If you’re not going back to Yanjing, where are you going?” Zhao Xiaoqi was very confused.
“It’s a secret,” Chu Yan replied shyly.
Zhao Xiaoqi narrowed her eyes at Chu Yan’s unusual behavior. “Then when are you planning to leave the school?”
“Probably tomorrow afternoon,” Chu Yan replied without even thinking.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt“Lu Benwei, what about you?” Zhao Xiaoqi asked Lu Benwei.
Lu Benwei did not even think and immediately replied, “Tomorrow afternoon. Why?”
“Oh, I see!” Zhao Xiaoqi’s face turned into a smirk, and she kept raising her eyebrows.
Chu Yan’s face was as red as a tomato, and her eyes were frantically avoiding hers.
“Yanyan, tell me the truth…” Zhao Xiaoqi raised her arm and pulled Chu Yan into her arms.
She pulled Chu Yan to the side and asked in a low voice, “Yanyan, have you two confirmed your relationship? You still haven’t?” Zhao Xiaoqi’s voice suddenly rose a little, and then she quickly lowered it again. “You dare to go to his house for the new year before you confirm your relationship?”
Chu Yan blinked her lively eyes. “What’s wrong with it?”
“This…” Zhao Xiaoqi was speechless. “How should I put it…? Look, you two haven’t even confirmed your relationship yet, and you’re already going to his house. If you’re confirmed, are you going to kiss and cuddle to make a baby?”
“Qiqi!” Chu Yan shouted, her neck turning red, “What are you saying?”
Zhao Xiaoqi chuckled and squinted her eyes. “We’re all adults. Why are you so embarrassed? If you follow Lu Benwei, I’ll be too embarrassed to take advantage of you in the future. You’d better clean yourself up tonight. I’ll pamper you well tonight!”
After Chu Yan heard this, she was unhappy. “Alright, Qiqi, I haven’t seen you for a few days. It turns out that I’m the one bullying you!”
Then, she reached out and grabbed Zhao Xiaoqi. Zhao Xiaoqi could not dodge in time and was grabbed, and a warm current flowed through her body like an electric shock.
“Alright, Yanyan. I’m going to catch you when you’re not prepared!” Zhao Xiaoqi expressed her dissatisfaction!
“Ahem, you two, be careful. We haven’t reached the dormitory yet.” Lu Benwei coughed twice to stop the two people.
Chu Yan and Zhao Xiaoqi realized that they were still outside, and their faces turned red.
After that, Lu Benwei sent the two girls back to their dormitory and returned to his own dormitory to rest.
The next morning.
The three of them had breakfast and Chu Yan sent Zhao Xiaoqi to the school gate.
Lu Benwei went to find Liu Yi.
“Mr. Liu, I’m going home.”
Liu Yi did not forget to tell Lu Benwei before he go home. He was so excited that tears flowed down his face!
“Good child, be careful when you go home.” Liu Yi warned.
“Also, don’t forget to cultivate when you get home.”
“I know.” Lu Benwei nodded and suddenly changed the topic. “By the way, Mr. Liu, I have something for you.”
After saying that, he put his hand into his storage ring. A bright light flashed and a ring with three lines appeared on Lu Benwei’s hand.
“This is a stigmata? It has three runes!” Mr. Liu blinked.
“Lu Benwei, you want to give me such a valuable thing?”
Lu Benwei nodded. “I can’t repay you for your kindness.”
“As you know, I don’t lack stigmata now. I’ve carefully selected this piece of stigmata. It’s most suitable for support classes like us!”
“Good child, you’re so thoughtful.” Liu Yi’s tears flowed freely.
This was Lu Benwei’s kind intention. Liu Yi held the stigmata in his hand as if he had received a treasure.
After a deep sigh, Liu Yi said, “It’s a pity that I’m useless. I can’t help you much on the journey of cultivation.”
“Mr. Liu, don’t be like this. It was you and Zhejiang Hunter University who chose me,” Lu Benwei said.
Liu Yi laughed and said in a self-deprecating manner, “It seems that choosing you was the right choice.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAt this time, Lu Benwei’s phone rang. It was Chu Yan. Lu Benwei picked it up.
“Annoying fellow, where are you? I’ve packed everything. We can go now.”
“Okay, I’ll be right there,” Lu Benwei replied.
After hanging up the phone, Lu Benwei said to Liu Yi, “Mr. Liu, I’ll be leaving then.”
Liu Yi waved his hand and said, “Go, have a safe journey!”
...
Lu Benwei took a deep bow and left Liu Yi’s office.
After Lu Benwei left, Liu Yi grinned and rubbed the stigmata with both hands.
“This child is so thoughtful. I’m going to show off to my old friends when they come over.”
After a pause, Liu Yi seemed to have thought of something.
“That’s not right. Lu Benwei’s family is in Hai province, and Chu Yan is from Dragon City. Both are far from each other. Why would these two children go back together?”
…
After leaving Liu Yi’s office, Lu Benwei went back to his dormitory and packed his luggage. Then, he went to Chu Yan’s dormitory.
Today, Lu Benwei was wearing a black wool coat and black jeans that stretched his long legs. His image was like a male lead that had walked out of a comic.
Along the way, many girls hid behind Lu Benwei and whispered.
At this moment, Chu Yan appeared. She walked out of the dormitory like a goddess. She was wearing a beige woolen coat and dragging an exquisite small box with her soft, jade-like hands.
Her long black hair was tied up high, revealing a mature and playful look. Her appearance made everything around her pale in comparison.
...
Seeing Chu Yan walk to Lu Benwei’s side, many girls dispelled their coveting thoughts.
