Chapter 117: I Really Am A Student
The previous dispute, Ling Mo’s Ghost Gate, had indeed entered Spirit Hall’s sight.
Unfortunately… no matter how they searched, they couldn’t possibly find Ghost Gate, because it hadn’t been built yet…
What scheme Spirit Hall had next in store for Ling Mo seemed unimportant…
What was important was that Ling Mo was about to make a fortune.
Given the time, Ning Rongrong should have already returned to the sect. The thousand sets of hidden weapons she had pre-ordered from Ling Mo were long prepared, just waiting for them to bring the money and collect them.
One set was a hundred thousand, a hundred sets were ten million, a thousand sets were a billion!
Good grief… With this, Ling Mo was about to get rich again.
After finishing this business with the Seven Treasures Glazed Tile School, Ling Mo might make another windfall.
Ling Mo suddenly didn’t like money much anymore, grew tired of it, had no idea how to spend it, and had absolutely no interest in it…
Ahem, just kidding, the money that should be earned still needed to be earned…
Arriving in the Heaven Dou City area, Ling Mo began searching for Shrek Academy. After Master and the others moved in, Blue Tyrant Academy successfully renamed itself and became Shrek Academy.
In less than a moment, Ling Mo found Shrek Academy, but he was stopped at the entrance.
“I say, brother, I really am a Shrek Academy student, just let me in…”
At the Shrek Academy entrance, Ling Mo looked at the gatekeeper brother in front of him and suddenly found it amusing.
This familiar scene was just like back in Nuoding City, when that gatekeeper had blocked Ling Mo’s way.
“You’re a student? Look at you, all shifty-eyed, clearly no good thing, and a student? So sleazy…”
“…”
The atmosphere was extremely awkward. Ling Mo really didn’t want to make a move, but this guy was going too far.
How was he shifty-eyed? These were dual pupils, okay? He had no discernment at all.
And moreover, he had clear brows and bright eyes, handsome and dashing, yet he said he was sleazy? Shifty-eyed?
“I really am a student, how do you want me to prove it…”
“You say you’re a student, then tell me, which class are you in? Who’s your homeroom teacher?”
This… this question was a bit tricky. How should Ling Mo answer him?
Since Shrek Academy entered Heaven Dou City, he hadn’t come back once, so how could he possibly know which class he was in.
“Hey, Teacher Zhao, over here, over here…”
Suddenly, Ling Mo saw a familiar figure—it was Zhao Wuji.
From his back, you could tell he had a broad back and thick waist, and short legs…
Zhao Wuji was just preparing to go to class when he suddenly heard a familiar shout. He curiously turned his head and spotted Ling Mo at once.
“Damn, you kid…”
With a face full of surprise, he walked over. Zhao Wuji happily said, “Haha, who did I think it was? It’s you, kid! What are you doing outside? Come in quick…”
After Zhao Wuji appeared, the gatekeeper no longer dared to stop Ling Mo, looking terrified.
“Hmph, believe me now?”
Ling Mo glared at him, scaring him so much his legs shook uncontrollably.
“Alright, stop scaring the guy! Come on, follow me in…”
Zhao Wuji didn’t need to guess to know what had happened earlier. Luckily Ling Mo hadn’t made a move, or they’d have to hire another gatekeeper.
With Flander’s stingy nature, he might not even be willing to hire a gatekeeper.
“Where have you been these past few months, kid? We haven’t seen a trace of you…”
On the way, Zhao Wuji kept asking about Ling Mo’s affairs, and Ling Mo brushed them off casually.
If they knew he had extorted a huge sum from Spirit Hall, he’d probably be kicked out of the academy the next day.
“Right, Teacher Zhao! While I was away these past few months, has anything big happened?”
Ling Mo asked. Although Number Five stayed by Zhu Zhuqing’s side, he knew nothing about the past few months.
“Big events? Nothing major, I think. If I had to say something, it was that Master got beaten up by Dugu Bo…”
As he spoke, Zhao Wuji looked around cautiously, confirmed no one was nearby, then whispered, “You wouldn’t know, that day Dugu Bo beat Master black and blue, beat him until even his mother wouldn’t recognize him.”
Talking about this, Zhao Wuji still wanted to laugh!
Turns out this guy didn’t like Master either.
“Really? What a pity, I didn’t get to witness it myself…”
“Heh heh, I bet if you saw it, you’d laugh like a pig…”
Ahem, thinking about it carefully, Zhao Wuji seemed to have quite a few complaints about Master.
But that made sense. Ever since Master arrived, he had taken over all the academy’s classes, leaving Zhao Wuji with no presence at all.
For example, imagine you’re a PE teacher with a full schedule, then a math teacher comes and takes all your classes.
And you can’t even object. Wouldn’t that piss you off?
“So Teacher Zhao doesn’t like Master either?” Ling Mo said with a smile.
“Hey, don’t say that carelessly!” At the mention, Zhao Wuji wanted to laugh but felt it wasn’t quite right, so he held back his laughter and continued, “I just purely think Master is too arrogant and needs someone to properly discipline him…”
“Yeah, I think so too…”
Ling Mo and Zhao Wuji were kindred spirits, and their chat gradually turned cheeky.
Poor Master, who knew where he had offended the two of them.
“Alright, behind that small forest ahead is the dormitory for us original Shrek members. The left is the teachers’ dormitory, the right is the students’ dormitory.
Dean Liu specially arranged this for us, one small single room per person! Since you didn’t come back before, we didn’t save a dorm for you.
For now, stay in Xiao San’s room. He runs off every two or three days anyway, who knows what he’s up to. The dorm is sitting empty, so you stay there first. I’m off to class…”
After bringing Ling Mo to the dormitory, Zhao Wuji left directly. The students over there were waiting for his class.
Finally back in the classroom after so long, old Zhao was very enthusiastic, afraid Master would snatch his class again.
Ling Mo arrived at the student dormitory and saw a standalone small house built in the small forest. Each dormitory was built separately, spaced far apart from each other.
By the dormitory door hung a small plaque with each person’s name faintly written on it.
From left to right, they were vaguely arranged in the order of the Shrek Seven Devils.
Zhu Zhuqing was seventh, so she was in the seventh room, the last one!
After figuring it out, Ling Mo sneaked over directly! How to slip into Zhu Zhuqing’s dormitory.
Joke, sleep with Tang San? What a joke, he’s a married man, how could he sleep with another guy.
Arriving at the last room, Ling Mo knocked on the door and found no movement inside.
Thinking about it, Zhu Zhuqing probably hadn’t gotten out of class yet, so he directly picked the lock and went in.
Sure enough, Zhu Zhuqing wasn’t there, nor were the others.
“Whatever, I’ll sleep first…”
With his wife not around, Ling Mo suddenly felt sleepy. He lay directly on Zhu Zhuqing’s bed, feeling the lingering fragrance on it, and slowly fell asleep.
Suddenly, there was a slight movement outside the door, and Ling Mo woke up instantly.
Years of habit made him extremely sensitive. No matter how soundly he slept, any little movement would definitely wake him.
The door opened, and he saw Zhu Zhuqing’s stunning face, along with her standard purple dress.
“Ah…”
