Chapter 436 The options he gave were Shenyue Sect and Xuanxian Sect
Gu Xiuji stared at her deeply, his Adam's apple rolling slightly, and asked a question he had been thinking about for a long time, "So can you tell me, which side are you on? This question is very important to me."
Shi Ling's expression suddenly grew serious, and he said solemnly, "We live in a society ruled by law now. As a law-abiding citizen, I will of course always stand on the side of justice."
The options he had given were actually the Shenyue Sect and the Xuanxian Sect. But after hearing Shi Ling's answer and thinking about what she had done in the past, Gu Xiuji felt that it seemed to be expected.
He murmured, "I understand..."
…
Sun Bo attempted suicide but failed, and no murder occurred in Yuncheng No. 1 Middle School. The incident was quickly discussed by classmates and two days passed quickly. Everyone was immersed in the final stage of college entrance examination review.
Ever since Yu Chen merged his soul with Si Yuan's, he has been on leave from school.
The day before the college entrance exam, as everyone was moving tables and setting up the exam room, Fang Songzhao wondered, "Is Yu Chen not even coming to the exam? Is he planning to repeat his year?"
"He did better than the class monitor in his last mock exam. Wouldn't it be a shame if he didn't take the college entrance exam?"
Su Xingwan looked at Shi Ling again and asked curiously, "Shi Ling, aren't you closest to Yu Chen? Why hasn't he come to school recently?"
Shi Ling simply said, "He's dealing with some things."
Su Xingwan: "Family affairs?"
Shi Ling: “I guess so.”
Su Xingwan understood: "Oh!"
She had heard her parents talk about Yu Chen's life story before, and heard that his biological father was related to a top family in the imperial capital. These wealthy families had a lot of troubles, not to mention the big families.
Zhong Yungong felt it was a bit jarring when he heard Su Xingwan say that Yu Chen's grades were better than his last time. He couldn't help but sneer, "Who knows if he's been doing this behind the scenes and didn't come because he was afraid of being exposed during the college entrance exam."
Zhong Yungong felt that Yu Chen basically slept in class before, and other than that he would ask questions to Shi Ling who was repeating the grade. The slight improvement in his grades was probably bought with money from his family connections.
Shi Ling suddenly looked over and asked, "Which trash can is that sour smell coming from? Do you smell it?"
Li Zhining couldn't help laughing, and said to Zhong Yungong with a hint of meaning, "It's a sour smell."
Only then did everyone react.
Su Xingwan was still looking at Zhong Yungong's place, pinching her nose in disdain. "It smells so sour. You're always nitpicking at others instead of focusing on the right path. You deserve the decline in your grades."
Zhong Yungong's face turned the color of liver.
Qin Zhan said slowly, "Class monitor, you might not know this, but Yu Chen was admitted to Imperial Capital University last year through a competition, and he even went straight to the doctoral program. But maybe because the major wasn't to his liking, he rejected it."
"What did you say?!"
This time, not only Zhong Yungong was shocked, but also Shi Ling, Su Xingwan, Fang Songzhao and others were shocked.
It was Qin Zhan's turn to be confused, "You don't know?"
Everyone shook their heads.
He asked Shi Ling again: "You don't know either?"
Yu Chen was aloof and didn't like to talk to anyone, so he had the best relationship with Shi Ling. He thought Yu Chen would definitely tell Shi Ling about it.
Shi Ling shook his head.
She really thought that since the dignified Emperor of Fengdu had a broken soul, it was understandable that he was a poor student. Moreover, what they were learning now was new technology developed a hundred years after their fall, so it was normal for these old antiques to be unable to learn it. Just like she had been before.
Qin Zhan remembered that Yu Chen always came to Shi Ling for advice, and then he realized what was going on and muttered, "Damn it, I think I'm in trouble."
At this moment, a cool summer breeze blew in through the window, and the leaves reflected the sunlight, sparkling. The boy's cold and slightly doubtful voice came from the door:
"Why aren't you talking?"
