The man who had remained silent all along cast a meaningful glance at her.
“You’ve let a murderer escape! I saw it with my own eyes. She captured the murderer and hid it in her necklace!” Aluo explained anxiously, his voice filled with urgency.
The two police officers were at a loss as well.
“Sorry, he just arrived in our country and has been exposed to too many ghost stories lately. He got scared last night,” Gu Zhixing finally spoke up.
Aluo wanted to say more, but he received a signal from Gu Zhixing with his eyes, so he could only snort and stay silent.
The two police officers nodded in understanding, “I see. So, it’s like that. However, he’s quite timid. We suggest he avoids watching supernatural stories in the future.”
Satisfied that the two of them were alright, the police officers got into their car and drove away.
“Why didn’t you speak up for me just now? You saw everything just as I did,” Aluo frowned, displeased.
Gu Zhixing turned around and glanced at the dense forest behind him.
“Because if I hadn’t witnessed it myself, I wouldn’t have believed it either.” Everything that happened last night was too magical!
They had been taught to value science and oppose feudal superstitions since childhood. They had long stopped believing in such things.
Even if they had explained it together with Aluo just now, the police officers would have thought they were out of their minds. They might even have sent both of them to a psychiatric hospital.
“Besides, even though she’s young, she conceals her true abilities. She effortlessly trapped the two of us on the mountain all night. Even if those two police officers had believed us, who knows if she would have used her powers to make us forget what happened last night.”
He absolutely believed that she had that ability.
Aluo thought about it carefully and realized it was true. He pursed his lips and said, “What about the Starfall Herb? Your situation can’t be delayed any longer.”
“I’ll figure something out. I’ll be fine,” Gu Zhixing reassured him.
Aluo nodded, looking at him hesitantly before finally speaking up, “Since you’re back now, why don’t you go and see your family?”
Gu Zhixing clenched his hand beside him with force. “No, knowing that they’re safe is enough for me.”
Aluo glanced at him and remained silent.
Lu Miao returned to Lingyue Manor and went to Manor No. 9 first to store the
Starfall Grass in the specialized cold storage for fresh herbs before going home.
As she walked through the front gate, she looked up and saw Gu Shiyan standing on the second -floor balcony, still wearing the clothes from last night.
When he saw her return, Gu Shiyan waved at her.
Lu Miao furrowed her brows slightly. Did this guy stand here all night?
As she entered the house, Gu Shiyan came down from upstairs.
After exchanging greetings with her, he was about to leave.
Lu Miao pursed her lips. “Have breakfast before you go.”
Gu Shiyan’s steps halted at the door, and a barely noticeable smile appeared on his lips. He replied in a warm tone, “Alright.”
He turned around and went back to the dining table, pulling out a chair for Lu Miao to sit before taking a seat next to her.
Gu Jinxi yawned as she came downstairs, giving them a quick glance before sitting opposite Lu Miao.
“Sister-in-law, mid -term exams are coming up soon. If I can rank in the top three of my class, I want to participate in the World Supercar Championship next week,” Gu Jinxi said.
Lu Miao nodded, “Sure.”
Studying should also involve a balance between work and leisure. It wasn’t good to make children study hard every day without any rewards.
Adequate relaxation would actually benefit their learning.
Gu Jinxi immediately became excited, “That’s great! Sister-in-law, why don’t you come with us? Maybe our Q Goddess will participate too. We can cheer her on together!”
Lu Miao .
Thanks, but she gets to see the Q Goddess every day!
After breakfast, Lu Miao went straight to school.
The classroom was bustling with discussion about the meteor shower from last night.
As soon as Su MO saw her, she eagerly approached and said, “Leader, did you watch the meteor shower last night? A meteorite fell!”
“The news has already reported it. They say it should have fallen in Luocheng, and people from all over the country will probably come looking for meteorites these days. I wonder who’s lucky enough to find it,” another classmate commented.
Lu Miao thought for a moment and realized she had forgotten to take out the meteorite in the morning. It was still in her backpack.
She reached into her bag, took it out, and placed it in front of them.
The surrounding classmates looked at the fist-sized, dark stone on the table and were stunned. “Boss, is this…”
“A star,” Lu Miao replied simply.
“I woke up in the middle of the night and found this stone right in front of me in the yard. It should be the one you were talking about.”
Although her explanation was far-fetched, all the students in the class believed her without hesitation.
Wow Boss, you’re amazing! You actually found it!”
The group of students excitedly gathered around the meteorite, chatting and taking pictures to share on social media.
Lu Miao, on the other hand, simply rested her head on the desk and took a nap.
While the classroom was buzzing with excitement, a loudspeaker suddenly sounded outside on the campus.
“Lu Siyu, ever since I saw you last night, I fell in love with you at first sight. You are my angel, and for you, I’m willing to give everything…”
A slight smile curved on Lu Miao’s lips as she got up and walked outside the classroom.
The other classmates followed her to see what was happening.
With such a commotion, the corridor was already crowded with people, all leaning their heads down to see what was going on.
In the open space in front of the teaching building, a middle-aged man with a potbelly and a bald head sat on a convertible sports car. In one hand, he held a bouquet of bright roses, and in the other, a large loudspeaker, which he was using to shout towards the direction of the teaching building.
“I love you, love you until the seas dry up and the rocks crumble, love you eternally, love you like how Romeo loved Juliet…”
The students in the corridor burst into laughter.
“Who’s this weirdo? He actually came to school to confess his love?”
“Hahaha, this is next-level embarrassing! I’ve already imagined a mansion being built on her cringing toes!”
“But wait, the important question is, how does Lu Siyu know him? Ordinary students don’t have a way to know someone so wealthy, right?” “She’s capable of anything to suppress Lu Miao. She didn’t hesitate to
competitor. Maybe this is her new powerful backer.”
“She’s willing to seduce a married man just for fame. She really doesn’t care about her reputation.”
Students from other grades were discussing and speculating.
In the experimental class, Lu Siyu listened to the discussions of her classmates outside, feeling unable to raise her head..
