Chapter 116: Let Me Be!

Translator: Atlas Studios  Editor: Atlas Studios

129 was only known to a very select group of people.

 It was logical that ordinary people hadn’t heard of it. And, in fact, Qin Ran’s reaction was normal too.

But it’d have been even more normal if she’d asked what 129 was about.

 The way Qin Ran was sipping her water quietly and keeping her head low… she seemed completely disinterested.

 Hao Dui did not want to think too much about it. He simply filled Lu Zhaoying in with the details.

 Only when they were having dinner did they discuss 129’s recruitment again.

 Cheng Juan hadn’t been in the capital lately. Now that something huge happened in the capital, everyone’s eyes were on it.

 A few parties had already gathered their resources to check on 129.

 Lu Zhaoying was pretty interested in it too. Only Qin Ran and Cheng Juan were really eating at the table.

 “No, Master Juan, how could you not be the least bit interested? Cheng Mu’s goddess…” Lu Zhaoying was about to say something but paused when he looked at Qin Ran. He then continued, “Ahem, I mean Cheng Mu’s goddess might be selected.”

 “Mm.” Cheng Juan gave a patronizing response.

 Lu Zhaoying couldn’t help but turn to Qin Ran when he heard Cheng Juan’s response. He smiled.

 After they had all spoken, Qin Ran slowly said, “Over the next few days, I’ll be focusing on my examinations. I won’t have much time.”

 Qin Ran had managed to find the address for Qian Dui previously, so she’d been coming to the school doctor’s office to settle some problems for them too.

 Lu Zhaoying heard about it just now and wasn’t too shocked.

 But having heard it for the first time, Cheng Mu looked up very slowly. “Miss Qin, are you… being serious?”

 “Of course.” Qin Ran seemed to be in a good mood.

 Cheng Mu seemed to have something more to say but stopped himself.

 After she was done, Qin Ran said she’d return to the classroom to do her revision first. Lu Zhaoying and Cheng Mu very quietly watched her leave.

 It was perfectly normal for a Year Three student to be studying hard in preparation for their final exam the following year. Hao Dui didn’t see anything weird about it.

 In Hao Dui’s opinion, it was more inappropriate for her to have spent so much time hanging out outside of school.

 “She said she’s going to prepare for her examinations. What’s with your expressions?” When they were done eating, Hao Dui asked Cheng Mu quietly. “Aren’t grades the most important to a student?”

 Cheng Mu placed his dishes in the sink and turned around silently. “I’ve seen Miss Qin do her homework, and I’ve seen her exam papers as well.”
