Principal Gu emerged from the shadows, scrutinized Lu Yulan, and watched as she gracefully walked to the wicker chair and sat down, even pouring herself a glass of wine.
"I had no idea that a woman who had been dead for more than ten years had actually come back to life."
Lu Yulan remained calm for a moment, raised her glass, and smiled gently, "Would you like to sit down and have a drink, teacher?"
"Speaking of which, we really have to thank the teacher for the conjecture he put forward back then. Is the teacher still trying to resurrect his wife now?"
Seeing that Principal Gu remained silent, he immediately raised his hands and shrugged. "I have no intention of offending you. This is just a greeting to an old friend. By the way, your daughter is very beautiful."
"Thanks."
He never imagined that his years of planning would benefit someone else. He had always wondered how the scheming imperial princess could so readily accept her fate. Now he knew…
"You admit it so openly, aren't you afraid I'll tell them? Or are you really willing to marry your junior while bearing another person's name?"
Lu Yulan took a small sip of the wine. Although the liquid, which was a mixture of organic compounds and microorganisms fermented, smelled very nice, the taste was rather unpleasant.
Gently push the wine glass away.
"Would they believe that? The teacher came all this way, even abandoning his daughter, just for gossip, to find out if I will marry Lu Yuanhong."
That was a rather harsh statement, but Su Guo really didn't have anything to be particularly wary of. She wasn't a completely kind person back then, and she certainly isn't now.
She rested her chin on her hand, a playful smile on her lips. "Actually, he's not bad looking. After all, I'm just a bit older than him mentally."
Principal Gu, however, was unwilling to continue playing games with the other party. "I want to know exactly how you were resurrected, the whole process."
Su Guo raised an eyebrow; the main event was about to begin.
She switched hands and continued to rest her chin on her hand. "Why should I tell you, teacher? I've been reborn, I'm a completely new person now. What good would it do me to tell you this secret?"
"You're still the same as before, with ambition and desires as abundant as a glutton."
Su Guo was amused by Principal Gu's analogy, but a tear welled up in her eye. "No, no, no, the teacher is wrong. I'm just focused. Didn't the teacher say back then that I was excellent and that I couldn't compare to my younger sister? I'm clearly the older sister. Is it just because we awakened different abilities?"
Su Guo snapped her fingers, a spark flashing from her fingertips, then with a flick of her wrist, she ignited the napkin, extinguished it, and the nearby plants grew even better...
"Now I possess superpowers of all attributes and can even glimpse the future. What can my sister compare to me? I am also the descendant of a hero."
As she spoke, she laughed even harder. The situation was simply hilarious, even though she was that hero and he was her descendant. "Teacher, look at the empire my sister has ruled! It's a complete mess! If it were me, it would never be like this..."
Then he stood up, walked up to Principal Gu, and said, "Back then, I neglected my wife, which led to her death. Now I am also dying. I have been obsessed with this for so long. If you choose to help me, I will help you revive your wife. Then you can do whatever you want."
"You can be reunited as a family, how perfect."
Su Guo's eyes sparkled, and even her voice was alluring, but suddenly there was a commotion outside the door.
"who?"
Principal Gu woke up from the hypnosis and looked at Su Guo with increasing wariness.
