Chapter 437: Rich Young Lady (3k)
Under the night sky, Su Jiu arrived at the edge of the training ground and looked at the students who had dispersed to get their uniforms. She shook her head at the excited expressions on their faces, as she had no interest in squeezing into a crowd that smelled of sweat.
Thinking this, she walked towards the figure still sitting on the chair.
“Humph…”
Bai Zhi seemed to have noticed Su Jiu’s arrival and deliberately turned her head away from her, but her swaying, fair legs betrayed her inner concern.
These small actions naturally couldn’t escape Su Jiu’s eyes. The latter went behind Bai Zhi, took out the red velvet cake she had bought at the store from her ring, and said with a light chuckle, “Little greedy cat, you’ve been here so long, are you hungry?”
“I’m not like those little human girls who can eat magic crystals…”
Bai Zhi puffed her cheeks, turned her little head away, her mouth slightly askew, but her eyes, with white flowers, couldn’t help but look at the cake.
Well… she admitted that human savory cakes were quite delicious.
“If you want to eat, just say so. Greedy ghost, pretending to be reserved.”
Seeing this, Su Jiu smiled, placed the cake on Bai Zhi’s lap, sat beside her, leaned back on the double chair, and quietly watched the boys showing off to the girls not far away, feeling a sense of nostalgia for youth.
“Cough cough~ You’re the one asking me to eat this!”
After two light coughs, Bai Zhi put on an indifferent expression, opened the cake box, picked up a knife and fork, gently cut a piece of cake, put it into her mouth, and her eyes narrowed slightly.
Looking at Bai Zhi’s appearance, Su Jiu smiled slightly. Leaning on the chair, she felt this moment of peace. Suddenly, she remembered that she had always said she would take Bai Zhi to her place, but her schedule had been delayed. She sighed, “Bai Zhi… I’m sorry for making you look for my brother and delaying our plans… It’s my fault… I…”
“It’s really delicious! Flirt, try it—ah~”
Before Su Jiu could finish speaking, a plastic fork with cake suddenly came into view. She turned her head and saw Bai Zhi’s smiling face. After a moment of silence, she opened her mouth slightly.
As the cake entered her mouth, Su Jiu could feel the salty and sweet taste. The delicate cream filling made it surprisingly delicious. She turned to look at the girl in the down jacket beside her and found that she was carefully guarding the cake, blinking and saying, “Only if I feed you can you eat!”
Su Jiu smiled helplessly, looking at Bai Zhi, who was like a young lady, her emotions seemed to have lessened. Perhaps someone as optimistic as Bai Zhi wouldn’t think so much?
“Here, for you…”
Before she could think further, Bai Zhi put another small piece of cake next to her mouth. The two ate it with great tacit understanding, one bite for each. Under Bai Zhi’s occasional complaints of “Why can you eat so much?”, the cake was finished, and Su Jiu explained her plan for this time.
“I’m going to get the clothes. You can find Secretary Zou or Teacher Lu Nan later and look for a place with Sister Lin Mei.”
Su Jiu looked at the almost-finished queue and slowly got up to walk. After a few steps, Bai Zhi’s crisp voice came to her ears:
“Go ahead and do it. Don’t worry about me. I’ve been on the battlefield before, and I’m not some little girl.”
Under the dim streetlights, Su Jiu was slightly stunned. She pursed her lips, but did not look back, waving goodbye to Bai Zhi.
In her heart, she felt she understood this little flower fairy less and less. The other party seemed not to be the spoiled young lady she thought. However…
It was also quite good, being knowledgeable and virtuous, capable of managing the household and raising children.
When Su Jiu reached the back of the line, she saw two people in front of her. She then turned her head to look and found Bai Zhi only a few positions away from her. Just as she was about to say something, she saw Bai Zhi step forward by two paces and suddenly wrap her arm around her neck.
“Don’t speak…” Bai Zhi’s voice was faint.
Immediately after, Su Jiu’s lips met something soft, her teeth were prised open by something, and her eyes widened. The next moment, the taste of the cake she had just eaten mixed with a faint floral fragrance filled her mouth, and an indescribable feeling surged into her heart.
“You don’t want to be discovered by those people in front of you, do you? Stick it over here to me…”
Hearing the voice in her mind, Su Jiu looked at the fairy’s face just a few centimeters away from her, and tentatively stuck out her tongue into Bai Zhi’s mouth. Her small tongue cautiously flicked, slowly entering that warm place.
“Mmph!”
Suddenly, her tongue tip tingled, and a faint fishy smell filled her mouth, making Su Jiu involuntarily step back two paces. She found Bai Zhi looking at her with her hands behind her back, a cryptic smile on her face in the light. She slowly leaned close to Su Jiu’s right ear and whispered, “This is a small punishment from me for not caring about us mother and daughter.”
Before Su Jiu could say anything, she felt a warmth on her earlobe, and a rush of blood surged into her heart. Then a soft, milky, yet domineering voice quietly entered her ear: “I’ve left my mark on your tongue tip. From now on, you belong to me…”
“Phew… Don’t have any accidents. This is this young lady’s order.”
“Mmm.”
Swallowing hard, Su Jiu softly responded. Her earlobe also cooled down. In her daze, she only saw Bai Zhi put her hands into her down jacket pockets and walk away. Her swaying ponytail was quite simple and neat.
She seemed not to be what she thought she was.
“Hey! This classmate, are you the newly added Jiusu classmate in the system? There’s only S size left, so just wear it to make do.”
A rather rough voice sounded behind Su Jiu. Su Jiu turned to look and saw an instructor wearing the same uniform as Lu Nan. The instructor directly threw a bag of clothes at her.
“Thank you. The S size should be a bit big, but it’ll do.”
Catching the clothes, Su Jiu said thanks and then walked directly towards the main group. In two or three days, they would be heading to the Red Blood Battlefield. She wanted to integrate into this high school student group, so she could only stay in the collective dormitory tonight.
Soon, after winding through several turns, she arrived in front of the girls’ dormitory. She found that it was a bungalow that resembled a container. Looking through the open door, she saw that the interior seemed to be entirely in military green.
After walking through the large iron gate outside the dormitory, she found that the bungalow was surrounded by girls, about twenty or so. They looked at the bungalow dormitory with expressions of disdain.
Among them, a girl with brown-yellow hair, with an unpleasant expression, took out her hand from her storage bag and dialed her butler’s phone: “Hello! I want to go home. I’m not staying in this place that’s like a concentration camp!”
The girl’s comical actions made Su Jiu feel amused. She didn’t pay much attention. Seeing that there were also some people inside the dormitory, she shook her head and walked in.
As soon as she entered the dormitory, Su Jiu bumped into someone she had seen before, the short-haired girl Xiao Guang. The latter was stunned when she saw Su Jiu entering with soldier’s clothes. She frowned and asked, “Why are you here? This is for high school student training…”
“Because I’m also a high school student. The little one earlier was my sister, and the Advanced Stage Warrior was my sister.”
Casually finding an upper bunk, Su Jiu said lightly as she slowly climbed up. Then, like building an illegal structure, she took out curtains and other bedding and began to set them up.
“Can students possess storage rings? And my mother can’t see through your strength…”
Chuan Guang looked at Su Jiu’s storage ring with disbelief. She felt that the other party was very likely cheating to get in.
“It’s just an alchemical item that hides aura. As for the storage ring, it’s an inherited item from my family, passed down from women to women, which is very normal, right?”
Hearing this, Su Jiu took out a small token from somewhere and waved it in front of her. She blinked and said, this was the item used to hide the aura from the griffin earlier.
“During the previous briefing, it was required not to use alchemical items…”
Being teased by Su Jiu like this, being young, Chuan Guang felt a little embarrassed. Finally, her gaze fell on Su Jiu’s waist-length long hair. She frowned and said sternly, “And you’re keeping long hair to join the army, isn’t this foolishness?”
“Alright, alright, I have to work now.”
After installing the curtains, Su Jiu glanced at Chuan Guang and waved her hand, pulling the curtains shut. She then began to arrange the alchemical equipment one by one inside.
“This person is probably here for a family mission too? With this attitude, she’ll probably be eliminated in tomorrow’s tryouts.”
Chuan Guang watched Su Jiu treat this place like a school dormitory, and she was completely dumbfounded, not knowing what to say to this unyielding rich girl.
Inside the curtains, Su Jiu took out a non-ice intermediate magic crystal and cautiously began to make the “Dream Flower.”
Su Jiu had a premonition that this item would be useful in large- scale group battles of hundreds or thousands of people when fighting the “Bear of the Snow,” and when the quantity was sufficient, breaking through the barrier of divine descent would not be impossible.
Su Jiu’s action of setting up the bed curtains naturally caused a series of girls to imitate her, but many were ordered to dismantle them by the female instructor in charge of their living arrangements before they could finish.
Then many people discovered that the female instructor, who was fierce towards them, turned a blind eye to Su Jiu’s small “tent” with lights on. Immediately, some people, dissatisfied, stepped forward, pointed at Su Jiu’s bed, and loudly questioned, “Report, instructor! Why can’t we, but she can? Is it possible to use connections in the army camp?”
“She’s already finished setting it up, so it’s not good to dismantle it. You newcomers should not imitate her.”
The female instructor said indifferently, her face filled with coldness. She clearly remembered the photo and instructions from Secretary Zou – that she was a relative of Teacher Yu, and should be treated preferentially.
Using connections was forbidden in the army camp, but if this connection was the biggest one in the entire army camp, the nature of the matter changed.
This was called adaptability.
Since the female instructor’s words spread, the news that the person in the lit tent was a top-tier wealthy young lady also spread throughout the girls’ dormitory that night.
…
The next day, as the sun rose, the whistle suddenly sounded, and the girls hurriedly got up, washed their faces casually, and rushed out the door.
Su Jiu, on the other hand, put away ten Dream Flowers, calmly got out of bed, tied a single ponytail like Bai Zhi’s, and washed up for a while.
At this time, she encountered Chuan Guang again. The latter was wearing a military uniform, holding a dagger in her hand and tucking it inside her military boots. Seeing Su Jiu approach, she smiled and said, “Young Lady of the Rich Family, you should be able to go home today. Next, you’ll be fighting against instructors to test our respective abilities.”
“What rich young lady? Nonsense.”
Su Jiu rolled her eyes, waved her hand casually, and changed into the military uniform. She only had to roll up the cuffs and pant legs several times, making her look somewhat endearingly silly.
“Heh, a young lady like you who has been forcibly raised to the Warrior Class probably won’t even be able to take one move from the instructor. Leave while you still can! The army is no place for a princess who still needs to sleep with a doll.”
Seeing that Su Jiu still didn’t admit it, Chuan Guang’s gaze swept over Su Jiu’s pale face, and she said calmly before trotting out of the dormitory first.
Su Jiu was left dumbfounded. After a long while, she blurted out “Ah?”. She found the other party’s chuunibyou words a bit cringe-worthy, but she definitely wouldn’t take it to heart.
Could those instructors take one punch from her? Definitely not!
It was inevitable that they would throw the match.
Actually, it wasn’t Su Jiu’s fault. She had been accustomed to the wild for more than half a year, and her opponents were Battle Kings and the like. She simply couldn’t adapt to the mindset of a high school student in a short period.
