Bookboy?

Canglan Women's Academy?

The one who brought Little Jing Kong to the State of Yan was a woman?

Lady Nan, like Gu Jiao, caught onto these two important pieces of information. She frowned and said, "Jing Kong wouldn't have been kidnapped, would he?"

People who could live in Canglan Women’s Academy were either female students or female teachers, and Linglong Pavilion… sounds particularly like a female student dormitory, so the possibility of it being a female student was greater.

None of the women Gu Jiao and Lady Nan know fit this description.

"Could it be… Mo Qianxue?" Lady Nan asked. She had been to Bishui Alley many times and naturally heard of Hua Xiyao and Mo Qianxue.

Mo Qianxue had been to the State of Yan.

But this guess was quickly denied by Gu Jiao, "When she went to the State of Yan, she was accompanied by the Imperial Son-in-law, Huangfu Zheng, and they snuck into the State of Yan from within the State of Chen, which wasn't an official method. She wouldn't be able to enter the academy in Shengdu."

"If she couldn't, then Hua Xiyao definitely couldn't either." Lady Nan frowned, "It can’t be Princess Xinyang... Princess Xinyang is already a mother, why would she go to an academy?"

Whether or not she attended the academy was secondary; Princess Xinyang was an imperial princess of the State of Zhao, her visit to the State of Yan would be of a political nature, and news would certainly be spread in Shengdu.

If she visited secretly, she would need to hide her identity. Going to an academy in the inner city would be practically announcing her presence.

The most important point was——

Gu Jiao said, "If it were Princess Xinyang, Jing Kong wouldn't have run away."

The little guy brought his things and the black gunpowder ball, clearly indicating he sneaked out in the middle of the night.

The black gunpowder ball...

Gu Jiao murmured.

The black gunpowder ball was a self-defense weapon she made for Xiao Heng. How did Little Jing Kong get it?

Could it be that Xiao Heng also came?

No, that was not possible. He couldn't come since she took away his admission letter.

Then… Little Jing Kong must have secretly taken Xiao Heng's black gunpowder balls back in the State of Zhao. Little Jing Kong was quite daring, and this wasn’t beyond something he would do.

Gu Jiao looked again at the note with "Our family’s bookboy" written on it. For Little Jing Kong to escape from the other party’s side, it meant that person wasn't good.

Otherwise, if she were a good person, would Little Jing Kong have run away?

Little Jing Kong was a grateful and kind child. When the old man who helped him out of the inner city got injured, he knew to bring him to her for treatment.

If that person had saved Jing Kong from danger, Jing Kong wouldn't have abandoned her.

As her thoughts turned, Gu Jiao imagined a series of scenarios involving child traffickers who kidnap and sell children across long distances, employing them as child labor, depriving them of food and drink, severely exploiting them, and frequently beating and scolding them!

"Canglan Women's Academy, is it? Very well!"

Gu Jiao clenched her fist, and the note turned to pieces!

Woman, you will pay the price!

……

Early the next morning, Gu Yan and Gu Xiaoshun both learned that Little Jing Kong had been "kidnapped" to the State of Yan.

Lady Nan had told them and asked them not to ask questions.

"He won't talk about it. I think he might have been scared and doesn't want to recall it."

Lady Nan even found a reasonable explanation for Little Jing Kong's evasiveness. One had to admit, Lady Nan certainly had some talent for imagination.

"Oh." Gu Xiaoshun obediently agreed.

Only Gu Yan looked suspicious. That little monk? Scared?

However, Gu Yan was very weak nowadays, so after muttering a few words to himself, he drifted back into a drowsy sleep.

Little Jing Kong was also up and was practicing martial arts energetically in the backyard. After finishing his routine, he sat down to meditate for a while.

Gu Jiao already knew that the "Little Chicken Monkey" he mentioned was Marquis Xuanping.

Gu Jiao was quite puzzled. During the time Marquis Xuanping was recuperating in Bishui Alley with his plastered legs, how did he manage to train Little Jing Kong in martial arts? How did he even accomplish that?

Gu Jiao looked at the vigorous Little Jing Kong and then at the old man who still hadn't woken up from the sedative after a whole night.

Well... He trained him quite well.

After breakfast, Little Jing Kong stayed at home while Gu Jiao and Gu Xiaoshun went to the academy for classes.

In the past, it was always Gu Jiao who took Little Jing Kong to school. Now, it was Little Jing Kong's turn to see Gu Jiao off to school, and he found it quite novel.

However, as soon as Gu Jiao left, he felt lonely.

Suddenly, he turned around and saw the big black horse in the backyard!

The horse king, who was eating grass, shuddered!

An ominous feeling surged in its heart, as if another mischief-maker was plotting against it!

Gu Jiao headed to Mingxin Hall and walked to the seat in the last row near the backdoor as usual.

The last row was usually empty, and if anyone sat there, it was either her or Mu Qingchen.

Mu Qingchen didn't come today, yet the last row was fully occupied.

Oh, wait, there was one empty seat left.

Everyone in the last row turned to look at Gu Jiao in unison, waved at her simultaneously, and even smiled warmly at her at the same time, all showing the same number of teeth.

Gu Jiao, who had already recognized Zhou Tong, suddenly couldn't tell anyone apart!

Looking around, Gu Jiao found that besides the last row, only the first row was empty.

She took a deep breath, resisted the urge to throw out the guys who had intruded on the last row seats and walked over to sit down on her own spot without expression.

Gu Jiao raised her hand, about to ask someone to lend her their homework, when Zhou Tong turned around and cheerfully placed a stack of homework on her desk, "I've done them all for you!"

Gu Jiao: "..."

At noon, Gu Jiao went to have lunch.

"Brother Xiao, I've got your meal ready!"

In the afternoon, Gu Jiao went for archery.

"Brother Xiao, I've fetched your arrows!"

"Brother Xiao, I've completed the annotations!"

"Brother Xiao, I've brought you lavatory paper!"

Lavatory paper? Why even bring her this?!

Gu Jiao, who just wanted to return to the dormitory to put the cloak back in Mu Qingchen's cabinet, walked out with a dark expression!

Gu Jiao had an indescribably exhausting day at the academy; dealing with these clingy people was more tiring than attending classes.

Finally, when school was over, Gu Jiao was so exasperated that she felt smoke was coming out of her head.

Grabbing her book bag, Gu Jiao walked off, not even waiting for Gu Xiaoshun.

As soon as she stepped out of the academy gate, a carriage stopped in front of her, but Gu Jiao didn't pay it any mind.

Unexpectedly, a girl in pink jumped off the carriage and called out to her domineeringly, "Xiao Liulang!"

It was Mu Qingchen's sister, Su Xue.

PLEASE CHECK OUT OUR NEW PROJECT:

Description:

In the suspenseful supernatural novel “Records of Mortals,” Jiang Baiyan, once a solitary and impoverished youth, finds refuge in the Shi family of Chang’an due to his extraordinary bloodline. With his clear and captivating peach blossom eyes, this seemingly innocent young man conceals a fanatical and malevolent lunatic within. Destined to succumb to darkness amidst hardship and degradation, he becomes a harbinger of chaos.

When Shi Dai suddenly transmigrates, she takes on the role of the Shi family’s young lady, the one who subjects him to countless trials, eventually leading to her demise.

The twist? She never got to finish reading the novel.

From what she knew of the plot, Jiang Baiyan was just a silent, timid, and often bullied pitiable character.

***

Jiang Baiyan had never encountered someone like Shi Dai.

After he had slaughtered all the evil creatures in the garden, the blood-stained young man, exuding a murderous aura, approached her step by step, his lips curling into a malicious smile, "Scared?"

Shi Dai responded, “You’re really amazing! I applaud you until I spin like a spiral and fly around the moon three hundred times! And also——you have dimples when you smile!"

Jiang Baiyan: ...?

After seeing her at a lantern festival with another man, Jiang Baiyan lowered his eyes, his fingers twirling her hair. He said in a mocking and sinister tone, "The mansion in the western suburbs...if I hide you there, no one will find you, right?"

Shi Dai replied, "Does it come with meals and lodging? Can I sleep in everyday? Oh, and your cooking is the best!"

Jiang Baiyan: ...?

Jiang Baiyan was supposed to dislike her, even hate her, but as their separation drew near, his eyes turned red and he grabbed her sleeve, pleading, "Don't abandon me, alri—”

Shi Dai responded, "Alright, alright, I’ll only have you. Mwah."

Jiang Baiyan: ...?

He hasn't finished his lines yet though…
