Chapter 521: The Detested Beggar
Chapter 521
After each training session in the Combat Department, students who are injured during the training are required to stay and receive treatment from the treatment instrument to repair their damaged bodies, so as to prevent any lingering injuries.
Ji You lies in the Repairing Chamber, waiting for her body to be repaired. Just as she steps out of the Repairing Chamber, she comes face-to-face with Liu Fufeng.
Liu Fufeng’s pupils contract slightly: "Ji You?"
Ji You is a bit puzzled and asks, "What’s with that look as if you’ve seen a ghost?"
Liu Fufeng tightens his lips and says, "Your face..."
Ji You raises her hand to feel her face.
Upon touching it, she is shocked: "Holy shit! My face!"
Chu Jiaojiao, hearing Ji You’s voice, rushes over frantically: "What happened? What happened?"
Like a gust of wind, even before she arrives, Chu Jiaojiao’s anxious voice can already be heard: "What’s with your face?"
Ji You touches her face, smiles broadly and says, "My pig face, it’s gone! It’s gone! Hahaha..."
Shen Changqing and Yue Qiyuan, following nearby: "..."
Chu Jiaojiao is absolutely overjoyed: "Oh my God!"
Staring at Ji You’s flawless, white, and tender cheeks, Chu Jiaojiao clutches her chest fiercely, "Mama mia... I... I’ve fallen in love again."
Ji You: "..."
Ji You rolls her eyes and says, "Get ready to be heartbroken at any moment."
Chu Jiaojiao: "..."
Chu Jiaojiao, covering her face, the gaps between her fingers reveal a pair of bright, dark eyes, staring intently at Ji You’s face: "I won’t! I won’t! I can’t accept this terrifying thought again."
Ji You ignores her, turns around, and looks at the treatment instrument. She realizes it wasn’t Mu Jianling being generous on his own initiative to repair her face, but instead—while everything else was free, just the facial repair alone deducted 5 points from Ji You.
points!
Instantly, Ji You feels such heartache that she can’t breathe, and lets out a wail comparable to the slaughter of a pig: "Give me back my points! I don’t even care about my face ahhh!!!"
Surroundings: "..."
Mu Jianling’s voice is not loud, barely audible, as he casually throws out a sentence: "I ordered the repair. Any objections?"
Ji You: "..."
Ji You immediately stops her howling, mumbles, and says, "Teacher... I really don’t need the repair."
Seemingly afraid that Mu Jianling won’t believe her, Ji You repeats herself, asserting her stance: "Really!"
"I don’t need it!"
"I don’t need it at all."
It’s just a face.
Why would I need it?
Are points not more important?
Upon hearing this, Mu Jianling’s lips curve slightly, seemingly in a good mood, his voice lifts slightly and says, "You still need to pick up your face. So, I’ve laid down a new rule: during training, if one suffers a facial injury, it will cost 5 points per point for mandatory repairs."
Having said that, Mu Jianling looks around, his gaze indifferent, and adds, "This rule applies to all of you."
The students: "..."
The students swallow their grievances, hardly able to vent them...
Mu Jianling strolls away leisurely and before leaving, he remarks: "A face is essential; how can you not want it?"
Ji You: "..."
Ji You takes a deep breath, watching as Teacher Mu Jianling leaves, and then, with a complicated expression, she stares at the Little Robot and the treatment instrument which repaired her body... Both are devils, absolute devils.
And now, forced by Teacher Mu Jianling, when Ji You spars with the Little Robot or with her classmates in the future, she will need to be careful to protect her face, because if she turns into a pig face again, she will be forced to deduct 5 points to repair it.
Nearby.
Yue Qiyuan’s eyes are filled with a deep sense of grievance as he looks at Ji You and before leaving, he remarks: "Troublemaker."
Ji You: "..."
Sheng Qingyan, also with an annoyed face, glares at Ji You and says: "You, a troublemaker, have angered Little Cutie so much."
Shen Changqing looked at Ji You for a few seconds, hesitating, and then blurted out before running away, "This time, I’m siding with Ayuan."
Ji You: "..."
Ji You grabbed her hair, "I’m the one being wronged here! I’m even worse off than you guys!"
Everyone else had left, leaving only Chu Jiaojiao, who was covering her face with both pain and surprise, almost like an actress possessed, said hesitantly, "Although I’m devastated about the points I’ll lose, but... but as long as Ji You’s face is alright, everything is worth it."
With that, she covered her mouth and ran away yingyingying.
Ji You raised a hand to her forehead and told herself to breathe in, breathe out, breathe in, breathe out...
Finally, she calmed down.
Then—
Ji You stared bewilderedly at Liu Fufeng, the crown prince standing beside her, asking, "What the heck, why are you sticking around me?"
And, with this look of wanting to say something yet stopping short and sneaking around, it really did not put Ji You at ease...
Seeing Ji You’s questioning look, a hint of redness quietly flashed across Liu Fufeng’s face.
As the redness quickly faded away, and just when Ji You thought her eyes were playing tricks on her, Liu Fufeng, who was standing like a little wife in front of Ji You, suddenly said, "Ji You, could you lend me 100,000 points?"
Whoosh~
In an instant, Ji You leapt up, "Dude! In broad daylight, don’t scare people like that."
Liu Fufeng bowed his head, his face turning red, clearly feeling embarrassed, "Can... can you lend them to me?"
Ji You jumped back several meters in a blink of an eye, as if avoiding the plague, saying, "You’ve got the wrong person... I don’t know you."
What a joke!
Asking for 100,000 points just like that could scare someone to death, okay?
Not to mention 100,000 points, Ji You wouldn’t even lend 1 point.
What a joke!
Haven’t you heard it’s easy to borrow money, but hard to collect debts?
When borrowing money, they treat you like a lord, but when you come to collect the debt, you’re treated like a nobody! About this, Ji You had already learned her lesson in her past life. Not to mention, she had also witnessed numerous examples on the internet of people refusing to pay back their debts.
No way!
Absolutely cannot lend!
And also!!!
The thing that Ji You couldn’t figure out, she now completely understood, thoroughly!
Why did Liu Fufeng blatantly lie, flattering her as the strongest in the Combat Department?
He had this sneaky plan all along!
He wanted to sugarcoat his words, and once she was sweet-talked and dizzy, he would ask her for money, for points!
Despicable!
This seemingly soft and delicate white flower is actually a dark lotus at heart!
Utterly shameless!
Utterly detestable!
Watching Ji You’s desperate avoidance, Liu Fufeng’s expression darkened slightly, as he hesitantly spoke again, "Then... can you lend me 50,000?"
Ji You coldly responded, "I must be going."
Dropping those words, she immediately took off.
In the blink of an eye, Ji You was gone without a trace.
Liu Fufeng: "..."
Liu Fufeng opened his mouth, raising his hand intending to call her back, "5000... even 500 would do."
However—
Not only had Ji You vanished without a trace, but the surrounding poor and miserly students, upon hearing him openly asking Ji You for points, dispersed in an instant, and in the blink of an eye, not one was left.
Liu Fufeng: "..."
Borrowing money—does it really make one an object of contempt?
