Chapter 288 Admitting Mistakes (Second Update)
"Dead?"
"How could he have died so suddenly?"
The henchmen who were dragging Zhuo Jingya were stunned. They hadn't done anything at all, and the man had already died.
Wan Qijie was also stunned.
Zhuo Jingya died without warning, and he was planning to take her back and teach her a lesson.
He looked at his henchmen who had accompanied him, and slapped them hard. "Useless! You could kill anyone you catch!"
"Brother Jie, we just carried her, we didn't do anything else!"
Fortunately, Wan Qijie was always there; otherwise, he would have been in deep trouble.
They laid the body down for a close examination, but there were no wounds on her body, and they could not find any cause of death.
"waste!"
Wan Qijie cursed again.
He was just told he'd been cheated on, and now the person is dead.
Zhuo Jingya was his woman, and her body wasn't even fully erect yet. It would be a lie to say he felt no distress whatsoever.
But the person was already dead, and she died at their hands. Although he was backed by the Wanqi family, taking Zhuo Jingya's body out would bring him a lot of trouble and problems.
The most important thing now is to clean up the bodies.
"Walk."
Where are we going?
"Where else can we go? We need to dispose of this body!"
Wan Qijie said.
He wouldn't take the blame for murdering someone at the academy. "Zhuo Jingya herself was promiscuous, cheated on me, got caught, and ran away in shame and anger, you know that?"
"knew!"
The two henchmen lifted the body and turned back...

On the other side
Jia Xitong sat in a rattan chair, with Shang Yanting in front of her, who had a serious expression.
“Host, dear…”
"Sit still."
"Dear host, you were so cool just now!"
"No whining allowed."
"I don't."
Jia Xitong covered her face and sincerely praised, "Host, you're so handsome!"
Shang Yanting: ...Suddenly I don't know how to keep a serious and angry expression.
"Aren't you going to explain why you secretly came out to become a teacher?"
"Yes, how did you know I was secretly doing part-time work?" Jia Xitong frowned slightly, she was sure she hadn't told anyone.
"Who left early and returned late? Who secretly took the puppet from the secret room?"
As Shang Yanting spoke, his brows furrowed again. "I was waiting for you to tell me yourself, but you're trying to fool me."
Okay.
She was wrong.
Jia Xitong sincerely admitted her mistake, "I'm sorry, I didn't tell you because I was worried you wouldn't let me go."
Why would I stop you from going?
"Because...you said that teachers have a three-year shorter lifespan."
Jia Xitong leaned against the wall, standing as punishment, and said, "So I think you wouldn't want me to become a teacher."
"Just because I don't want you to go doesn't mean you won't go?" Shang Yanting retorted.
Jia Xitong didn't speak, but just stared at him with wide eyes.
Her expression was obedient and honest, but her thoughts were rebellious and wild. She felt he didn't want her to go, so she went secretly—wasn't that obvious?
After Shang Yanting finished speaking, he realized it himself.
He pursed his lips slightly, sat on the stool, and turned his body around.
Oh ho
I'm really angry.
“Dear host.”
"Dear host~"
No matter how Jia Xitong called out, the other side only responded with a cold back view.
Seeing this, she couldn't help but sigh, then moved closer to him and gently poked him.
He patted her shoulder and said, "Actually, there's another reason why I became a teacher. I'm now a direct disciple of the God of Runes. As long as I train enough followers of the God of Runes, I can receive direct instruction from him."
Shang Yanting didn't react much upon hearing this.
"I'm not bragging, it's true."
In an attempt to win back her host, Jia Xitong personally removed her underwear and pulled out a gleaming golden embroidered scroll. "Look, this is the inheritance scroll that the God of Talismans specially gave me."
Shang Yanting finally spared a glance, "The analogy of Bo Tong?"
"Uh-huh."
Jia Xitong unfolded the embroidered scroll and explained, "Bo means the seniority of elder brothers, uncles, and youngest brothers. I am of a higher generation."
"What an awful name."
Shang Yanting said casually.
His unintentional disdain caused the raccoon to have a slight heart attack.
"It's not like it's anything bad, why didn't you tell me?"
Shang Yanting frowned, crossed his arms, and looked like he was saying, "If you can't give me a reason, we're breaking off our friendship."
"I was just trying to secretly breed them, to scare you all to death."
Small bucket, big dreams.
Who wouldn't want to be that seemingly weak but actually powerful master, quietly growing stronger in ordinary times, and then making a dazzling entrance at the most critical moment, perfectly timed with background music?!
That's it?
"hold head high."
Jia Xitong nodded.
Shang Yanting rubbed his forehead, feeling that he had been overthinking things for the past few days.
"Did the host take me to the party yesterday because I was secretly working a part-time job, and he deliberately took me there to meet people?"
Jia Xitong suddenly remembered what happened yesterday. Of the seven or eight people Shang Yanting had introduced her to, three had come today, and all of them were Liu Shan's superiors.
"I just had nothing else to do, so I wanted to give some pointers on cultivation."
Shang Yanting directly denied it, giving the impression that he simply wanted to do a good deed.
But Jia Xitong understood him, "Host is indeed the best host in the world!"
She hugged his elbow, her heart filled with emotion.
Shang Yanting gave a soft hum, but a subtle smile played on his lips. He looked down at her and slowly leaned forward…
puff--!
