As Chu Luo had to get up early tomorrow, she went to sleep at midnight.

When she returned to the bedroom, she deliberately glanced at Li Yan, who was sitting in the wheelchair, and asked, “You want to wait for him to finish replicating the jade pendant?”

Li Yan merely glanced at her but didn’t answer.

Chu Luo pursed her lips and walked in.

When she opened the bedroom door the next morning, there was already no one in the living room. Her gaze was fixed on the piece of jade placed on the coffee table in front of the sofa.

She walked over and picked it up. She placed her finger on it and the illusion disappeared. The phoenix inside the jade pendant also disappeared.

This made the corners of her lips curl up unconsciously.

“At least you’re smart enough not to take this jade pendant away. Otherwise… Hmph! Hmph!”

As soon as she put the jade pendant away, she suddenly thought of the herbs and poisons in the apartment next door. She went back to the bedroom to take the key. As she listened to the English words in her portable audio player, she opened the door and walked over.

When Chu Luo saw the herbs and poisons that occupied half the room, she was extremely satisfied.

Since there was so much good stuff here, she planned to spend two hours every night refining them.

The third year of high school was tense and exciting every day.

When Chu Luo entered the classroom at 6:40 am, half of her classmates were already there.

At this time, some people were already memorizing their books and doing practice questions, while others were making preparations. Only the students sitting at the back who didn’t have much hope for the college entrance examination were gossiping, just like they did every day.

Ji Cheng, who had a crew cut, said mysteriously, “Hey, did you guys know? Last night, after I went home, I heard my father talking about the Zhang family.”

Yang Meimei, who was wearing a short skirt even before the weather had turned warm, quickly asked curiously, “What is it? Is it related to the school hunk?”

Several girls stretched their ears at the mention of the school hunk.

But Ji Cheng purposely kept them in suspense, “Yes and no.”

The girls urged him in annoyance, “Hurry up and tell us.”

“Cough, cough…” Ji Cheng purposely cleared his throat, then said in a mysterious tone, “I heard from my father that a group of experts from other places have come to our Ocean City recently. Yesterday, Zhang Tianyi’s father invited one of the experts to their place. It seems like it was to treat Zhang Tianyi’s face.”

“Why does he need an expert to treat his face? Isn’t he just allergic? Shouldn’t allergies be treated at the hospital?”

“What do you know? I heard from my dad that Zhang Tianyi’s allergy can’t be cured at all. Furthermore, the more he goes to the hospital, the more serious his condition becomes. Think about it, Zhang Tianyi and Jiang Siyi are allergic at the same time. Their symptoms must be similar.

“If it’s more serious than that, how terrifying would it be? His face might be covered with festering sores.”

“Eh…” The few girls subconsciously shivered, but they were unhappy with Ji Cheng’s words.

“Don’t spout nonsense. How can the school hunk’s face be covered with festering sores?”

“That’s right. Since an expert is treating him, he will definitely recover soon.”

“Who knows? He might be coming back to school in a few days.”

“Right, right, right. Jiang Siyi has become like that now. The school hunk definitely won’t like her. Why don’t I go to the beauty salon more often in the next few days? Maybe the school hunk will take a fancy to me.”

“Hehe… Me too.”

“Pfft… wake up, all of you. Even if the school hunk comes to school, it’s impossible for him to like all of you. Look at Chu Luo. She’s the one who’s getting prettier by the day. She’s also devoted to the school hunk. Maybe the school hunk will fall for her.”

“What do you think Chu Luo ate, or what did she do to her face? Why do I feel that she gets better-looking by the day?”

“What’s the use of looking good? Didn’t you see that those gangster girls were so scared that they took a detour when they saw Chu Luo this morning? How could the school hunk fall for such a fierce girl!”

“If I didn’t see her every day, I’d think she was a different person.”

At this point, they turned to look at Chu Luo, who was studying English. Their eyes were filled with curiosity.

Chu Luo felt the attention of several pairs of eyes behind her but didn’t care.

…

After class in the morning, Chu Luo remembered the test papers that Old Gao had asked her about yesterday and decided to send them to him before going to have lunch.

However, when she reached the first floor of the office building, she bumped into Teacher Li, who had just come out of her office.

The moment Teacher Li saw Chu Luo carrying so many test papers, she didn’t have a good expression on her face. When she passed her, she sneered in disdain and walked away.

Chu Luo lowered her eyes and continued walking towards the office.

Most of the teachers were in the office, preparing to go to lunch.

Chu Luo carried the test papers to Old Gao’s cubicle. “Teacher Gao, I’ve finished these test papers.”

Old Gao was a little surprised. He quickly took the papers and flipped through them. Then, he said with a smile, “Very good. When the time comes, I’ll get the other teachers to find some papers for you to do too.”

“Okay.”

Old Gao added, “Xiao Luo hasn’t eaten yet, right? Why don’t you come to my house with me for lunch?”

When Old Gao finished speaking, a few teachers beside him gave him surprised looks.

Chu Luo shook her head. “My family cooked for me and sent food over. I’ll go to the classroom to eat. After I eat, I can review the other materials.”

“Okay, okay, okay. But studying is important, and so is your health. You should take some time to rest in the afternoon. Only then will you have energy for the rest of the day.”

“I know.”

Chu Luo came out of his office and went to the place where she had agreed to meet Auntie Wu for lunch.

It was a warm April day, and Chu Luo suddenly changed her mind about eating in the classroom after getting the lunchbox.

Behind the school was a small hill with at least ten acres of land. There were many cherry blossom trees planted on the hill. It was the season for cherry blossoms to bloom. She had heard the class talk about it many times and planned to take a look.

Unexpectedly, when she got there, there were pairs of Grade 10 and Grade 11 students everywhere.

Chu Luo thought for a while and walked towards the stretch of ordinary trees.

There were long wooden chairs in the forest. Chu Luo found a slightly remote chair with its back against the trail and sat down to eat.

At that moment, heavy footsteps came from behind.

The footsteps approached quickly. The person was on the phone as she walked.

It was Jiang Siyi.

Jiang Siyi stopped behind Chu Luo and made a call.

When the other party picked up the call, she anxiously asked, “Yi, I heard that your family found an expert to cure your face. Has that expert cured your face? Can you introduce the expert to me?”

It was unknown what Zhang Tianyi said, but Jiang Siyi’s voice immediately sounded like she was about to cry. “These last few days, I’ve been criticized by everyone in the school. I’m about to break down. You must help me. Sob sob sob…”

When Chu Luo heard Jiang Siyi’s cries, she prepared to put on her earphones.

Unexpectedly, at this moment, Jiang Siyi suddenly raised her voice and asked, “Really, did that master really agree to help me treat my face…? Yes, yes, yes, I heard that Chu Luo is currently staying outside the school. I’ll immediately go and find out where she is staying.”

Chu Luo listened to the rapidly departing footsteps and placed the lunchbox on her knees. She tilted her head and thought for a while before a sinister smile appeared on her face.

Very good. She just happened to want to see how powerful this so-called expert was.
