Chapter 519: Chu Yan

“What’s wrong?”

The male classmate who came with the youth could not help but be puzzled when he suddenly stopped and looked back.

The youth retracted his gaze and shook his head. “Nothing.”

The male classmate raised his eyebrows and smiled. “That girl should be a new student too, right? I think she came out of the principal’s office. She might be a relative of the principal. She’s really good-looking.”

The youth subconsciously frowned and said lightly, “Let’s go in.”

For some reason, he felt that the girl was familiar, but he did not know where he had seen her before.

“Teacher Li, a girl called Jiang Jing will register at your place later. Arrange a dormitory for her. Yes, a single dormitory.”

When the two of them reached the principal’s office, they happened to hear this.

The male classmate clicked his tongue and mumbled, “She’s indeed the principal’s relative. Even her dormitory is a single room.”

“Oh, Student Pei, you’re here. Come in quickly.”

Principal Gao had just hung up when he saw the two people at the door and hurried to invite them in.

Pei Yan walked in with a smile and leaned against the desk with his arms crossed over his chest. “Principal Gao, long time no see.”

“It’s been a long time.”

Principal Gao smiled and nodded. “Please take a seat.”

Pei Yan nodded and sat down.

The youth at the side casually found a chair and sat down. Then, he sat at the side with an indifferent expression.

“Ah…”

Principal Gao looked at the youth and said hesitantly, “This should be… Young Master Chu, right?”

Pei Yan smiled and nodded. “Yes.”

“Ah… Young Master Chu’s class has been arranged. He’s in Year Three, Class One. I’ve already informed Teacher Hao. Young Master Chu, you can go to class directly.”

“Yes.”

The youth replied faintly after a long while.

Pei Yan glanced at him and asked Principal Gao, “Oh, right, Principal Gao. I saw a girl walk out of your office just now. Is she your relative?”

A faint ripple suddenly appeared in the youth’s indifferent gaze.

He stared at Principal Gao, seemingly waiting for his answer.

“Are you referring to Miss Jiang?” Principal Gao smiled and shook his head. “Miss Jiang is not my relative. She’s just the daughter of a friend.”

Surnamed Jiang?

The youth frowned and fell into deep thought.

He thought for a long time and realized that he did not know the girl surnamed Jiang.

“I see.” Pei Yan smiled and said, “I knew it. How could I not know that Principal Gao has such a good-looking relative?”

Principal Gao was stunned before he laughed dryly.

“Gentlemen… Is there anything else?”

Seeing that the two of them were still sitting, Principal Gao asked carefully.

“Oh, there’s a small matter.”

Pei Yan scratched his nose lightly. “We want to go to the sealed school building to take a look. Principal Gao, can you give us the key to the school building?”

“You’re going to that school building?” Principal Gao’s expression changed slightly. “It’s not good there. You can’t go there.”

“You’re too superstitious.”

Pei Yan said disapprovingly, “This is a scientific society. How can you believe those ghost stories?”

Seeing that Principal Gao was still hesitating, he hurriedly smiled and said, “Rest assured, Principal Gao. We won’t go up. We’ll just take a look downstairs.”

“But…”

Principal Gao’s eyes darted around and he said awkwardly, “I’ve already given the key to someone else.”

“What?”

Pei Yan’s smile disappeared. “Who did you give it to?”

“Anyway, the key is not with me.”

Principal Gao did not dare to let the two young masters experience bad luck there.

If their parents knew about this, he would have to bear the consequences.

“Let’s go.”

The youth suddenly stood up and spoke faintly to Pei Yan.

Pei Yan glanced at Principal Gao and cursed silently before leaving the office with the youth.

“Chu Yan, I’m not criticizing you, but that place is indeed a bit strange. Why don’t we not go?”

Pei Yan said as he walked.

“We have to.”

The youth only said these words before returning to silence.

Pei Yan sighed softly and followed him downstairs silently.

—————

After Lu Sheng signed up, she moved the items to the dormitory.

After packing up, she looked at her watch and realized that it was already noon. It was time for lunch.

When she signed up just now, she had already created a meal card and topped up a few hundred yuan.

She did not know how the food in this school was.

She took her meal card, phone, and dormitory key and left.

She had just gone downstairs when her phone rang. It was Lu Zhou.

She swiped it and answered the call. “Master.”

“How was school?”

“Pretty good.” Lu Sheng looked around and realized that someone was looking at her from time to time. She quickly turned her gaze back and continued, “It’s just that there’s quite a lot of people.”

“It’s normal to have a lot of people in school. Have you eaten?”

“I’m about to.”

“Okay,” Lu Zhou replied. “That’s it.”

Lu Sheng looked at the hung up phone and pouted. Then, she continued walking to the dining hall.

The school was quite big. Thankfully, the dining hall was opposite the dormitory.

She walked around the dining hall and finally stopped at a window that sold crossing-the-bridge noodles. Then, she ordered a portion.

After a few minutes, the noodles were finally cooked.

There were quite a lot of ingredients for eight yuan.

She tasted the soup and realized that it tasted quite good. She secretly noted down the location of this stall.

“Junior, is anyone sitting here?”

Two boys also walked over with the crossing-the-bridge noodles and stood opposite her.

Lu Sheng glanced at them and shook her head. Then, she lowered her head and continued eating.

The two boys did not say anything else and sat opposite her.

Pei Yan realized that Chu Yan was staring at them with a frown. He turned his head and realized that the girl who came out of Principal Gao’s office this morning was sitting there and eating.

School had just started today, and there were a lot of people in the dining hall. Even the second floor was filled with people.

There were students and parents. In short, almost all the seats were filled.

“Don’t tell me you have other thoughts about that junior?”

Pei Yan clicked his tongue and looked at Chu Yan in surprise.

This Miss Jiang’s appearance was really eye-catching. Pei Yan admitted that he was stunned when he saw her back then.

She had the looks of a gentle and classic beauty. It seemed like she had a good personality.

It was not surprising if Chu Yan liked her.

It was just that…

“Didn’t you say that you already have a dream lover?”

Chu Yan retracted his gaze and glanced at him lightly before walking towards the third floor.

“Hey, wait for me!”

Pei Yan glanced at Lu Sheng and hurried after Chu Yan to the third floor.

Lu Sheng did not notice them. After filling her stomach, she picked up the items on the table and prepared to go to the supermarket on the third floor to buy some daily necessities.

“Hey, Junior, add me on WeChat.”

The boy sitting opposite her suddenly spoke.

Lu Sheng glanced at them and said lightly, “I don’t use WeChat.”

Then, she left with the items.

“How dare you? Look at your face. You’re a toad who wants to eat swan meat.”

The boy sitting at the side complained.

“It’s rare to meet such a beautiful junior. What’s wrong with asking for her contact details?”

“With her beauty, would she like you?”

Hearing the soft conversation from behind, Lu Sheng did not have much of a reaction. Instead, she went upstairs.

Although the supermarket on the third floor was not big, it was not small either. It had pretty much everything.

She took a red bucket and started buying the other items.

After settling the bill, she prepared to buy some fruits at the side.

However, she realized that two boys walked out of the restaurant on the third floor.

They were the youths she had met in the corridor this morning. She stopped in her tracks and her gaze landed on the unfamiliar youth.

Coincidentally, the youth stopped in his tracks and stared at her.

Lu Sheng’s heart jumped. She blinked and looked away.

No, no, she could not fall in love with someone else!

She and Ah Han were husband and wife. She could not like him just because he was handsome.

Moreover, she was already more than a hundred years old. In terms of age, she could already become his great-grandmother.

After calming herself down, Lu Sheng hurried to the fruit stall and asked for the price.

Pei Yan looked at Lu Sheng, then at Chu Yan. He blinked a few times, but a doubt arose in his heart.

Why did he feel like they knew each other?

However, this was not right!

He had known Chu Yan for more than ten years. He had known him since kindergarten. If Chu Yan knew such a beautiful girl, it was impossible for him not to have seen her before.

Or did this girl just transfer from Erzhong as well?

That was impossible. If this girl was from Erzhong, with her looks, it was impossible for him not to have heard of her.

Seeing that Chu Yan had already walked past the girl, Pei Yan hurried after him.

“Chu Yan, tell me honestly. Do you know that junior?”

“No.”

“Impossible!”

Pei Yan did not believe him. Chu Yan would not even look at people he did not know from the corner of his eye, much less stop and watch.

Unless he fell in love with that junior at first sight.

At the thought of this possibility, Pei Yan could not help but click his tongue.

Chu Yan fell in love with a girl at first sight. It was amazing.

After buying the fruits, Lu Sheng carried them back to the dormitory.

After sitting in the dormitory for a while, that youth’s face kept flashing past her mind.

After a long while, Lu Sheng could not help but mumble softly, “Ah Han, if you don’t come soon, everyone would look like you to me.”

Yes, she did not understand why that youth gave her a strange feeling this morning.

Now that she thought about it carefully, she suddenly remembered that when she first saw Chu Sihan in Xuan Yue Country, his expression was indifferent too. He was standing not far away and looking at her.

The youth’s expression was similar to Chu Sihan’s.

She sighed softly and pursed her lips before taking out her phone to watch a show.

After watching a television drama, someone knocked on the dormitory door.

Lu Sheng had just opened the door when she saw a girl with long brown hair standing outside.

Seeing her open the door, she smiled and said politely, “Oh, hello, classmate. I’m from the dormitory next door. Can I borrow the bathroom? There’s someone in our bathroom.”

Lu Sheng nodded slightly. “Come in.”

After letting the girl in, Lu Sheng did not close the door. Instead, she sat in front of the chair and continued watching her show.

The girl came out not long after entering. She seemed to be surprised to see Lu Sheng alone in her dormitory.

“The military training is tomorrow. Aren’t your other roommates here yet?”

“I’m… alone in this dormitory.”

Lu Sheng spoke shyly.

She had no choice. For convenience’s sake, she could not live with others.

“Oh, that’s great!”

The girl smiled and bade her farewell.

Lu Sheng closed the door and continued watching her show.

She only stood up and stretched when twilight descended.

She took her phone and went downstairs. After dinner, she started wandering around the school.

It was not until around ten in the evening when there were fewer people on the school campus that she started walking towards the school building that Principal Gao mentioned.

There were solar lights on the campus, and they were very bright. Only the school building in the south was dark.

She took out the key Principal Gao gave her and opened the door.

When the door opened, a chilly wind blew.

She raised an eyebrow and walked in. Then, she closed the door.

The further she walked, the heavier the Yin energy became. It made one feel like they had gone from autumn to winter.

However, there was nothing except strong Yin energy.

Lu Sheng raised her hand and pinched her chin. She stood downstairs and observed for a while before walking upstairs.

As the building had just been built for less than two years, it was still very new. In addition, it had been used last year, so the dust was not very thick.

The wind blew at night, and the windows that were not closed were cracking.

If it were anyone else, they would have been scared out of their wits. However, Lu Sheng was not an ordinary person.

She released Tan Jun, Jia Zheng, and the rest and asked them to help her find the problem.

She had no choice. There were a total of five floors here. There were a few classrooms on each floor. It would take some time to find them one by one.

After instructing Tan Jun and Jia Zheng, Lu Sheng went up to the roof alone.

She heard that the two students, the teacher, and the security guard jumped down from the roof.

The wind on the roof was very strong. She had just pushed open the small door when a strong gust of wind rushed towards her.

Lu Sheng raised her hand to cover her face. She only walked up after the strong wind had passed.

At this moment, downstairs.

Chu Yan and Pei Yan stood outside the door and stared at the recently installed iron door in front of them. For a moment, they did not know what to do.

At this moment, a strong wind blew and the door creaked open automatically.

Pei Yan shuddered in fear and hid behind Chu Yan.

“That door… Why did it suddenly open?”

Chu Yan walked forward and switched on the torchlight on his phone. He shone it on the lock and said lightly, “Someone has been here.”

“Huh?” Pei Yan was stunned. “No way? Everyone avoids such a godforsaken place. Who would want to come to such a place besides you?”

Chu Yan glanced at him expressionlessly and did not waste his breath on him. Instead, he strode in.

Pei Yan shrunk his neck and looked around. Then, he shivered. Seeing that Chu Yan had already walked in, he could only clench his teeth and follow.

He had no choice. Since last year, there had been countless versions of the story spread in this school building. Moreover, each version was scarier than the previous. No matter how bold he was, he could not help but be afraid of the unknown.

“Chu Yan, let’s leave after taking a look. I keep feeling that this place is weird.”

He followed Chu Yan and reminded him softly.

Lu Sheng had discovered them when Chu Yan turned on the light on his phone. However, as they were quite far away and the surroundings were dark, she could only roughly see a silhouette and not a face.
