Chu Luo stood by the door for more than ten seconds. Not sensing any murderous intent inside, she took out the key and opened the door.
After she pushed open the door, a few imposing men in black suits appeared.
Chu Luo asked calmly, “Who are you?”
One of the bodyguards replied, “Miss Chu, we were sent by Master.”
Chu Luo frowned. “Is he worried that I will take the jade pendant and run away?”
The bodyguard didn’t answer her question. Instead, he said, “Master wants you to concoct an antidote for his men who were poisoned. Also, we’ve already cleaned up all the rubbish in your apartment. If there’s anything else, you can just tell me directly.”
Chu Luo nodded and walked in without asking what they had done with the housekeeper.
The pungent smell in the living room was gone, and the floor was bare.
Chu Luo went to the bedroom, took out her schoolbag, and wrote down the prescription. She stood up and slung her backpack over her back, then said to the men, “I’m going to school. Remember to close the door when you leave.”
When she reached the door, she suddenly stopped and a sense of oppression exuded from her body. “Also… you are not allowed to enter my house without my permission.”
The bodyguards listened to the sound of footsteps walking away and only came back to their senses after a long while. Following which, their expressions turned ugly.
To think they were stunned by the aura of a little girl!
The morning reading began at 7:00 am. It was only 6:30 am, and the entire Grade 12 building was filled with the sound of morning reading.
When Chu Luo walked to the back door of Class Four, she heard a few people gossiping behind her.
“Jiang Siyi isn’t here today again. I heard that the school hunk didn’t come yesterday either. Did they go overboard that night?”
“Maybe the school hunk forgot to go easy on our class beauty, hehe…”
“Zhang Xiaofei, this is a classroom, can you not say such dirty jokes!?”
“So what if I did? As if that’s not also what you think.”
Chu Luo continued to walk towards the front door.
When she stepped into the classroom, the first person who saw her quickly nudged the person beside her with her elbow. “Look, doesn’t Chu Luo look a little different today?”
The two of them looked at Chu Luo and widened their eyes.
Chu Luo calmly walked to her seat and sat down.
Some of them spoke in hushed voices.
“Why do I feel that she looks better today? Could it be my imagination?”
“It’s not your imagination. I think so too.”
“She jolly well knows that she can’t get into a good university so she’s letting her studies go. That’s why she’s relaxed and well-fed!”
“I’m so envious of her. I don’t sleep until past twelve every night. I get up before five in the morning to memorize my books. I’d love a good night’s sleep, too.”
Amid the jealous and contemptuous discussions, the form teacher walked in.
The morning reading began.
He stood on the podium and observed all the students. When his gaze landed on Chu Luo, who was engrossed in writing, he suddenly remembered her “bold words” yesterday and walked over.
“Chu Luo, why are you doing mathematics in the morning?”
Hearing the disappointment in his voice, Chu Luo raised her head and replied seriously, “I’ve already finished reading the Chinese and political history from Grade 10 to Grade 12.”
The form teacher didn’t quite understand what she meant. “Then you can read more books.”
“I’ve finished reading the ones the school sent and the ones I bought.”
“…”
Could this child’s boastful claims get any more exaggerated?
The form teacher was certain that Chu Luo was bragging, so he subconsciously looked at the question she was solving. When he saw it, he was instantly surprised. He subconsciously pointed at a few steps and said, “You solved this question well, but the process of solving the question can be simplified. For example, here… here…”
After the form teacher finished speaking, he subconsciously asked, “Chu Luo, you can always ask me if there’s anything else you don’t understand.”
“Yes, there are some others.”
Chu Luo took out the national math competition book that she’d bought this morning.
“I flipped through it. There are some questions here that I haven’t found a simple solution to.”
“…”
The form teacher was silent for a few seconds. He said earnestly, “Chu Luo, you can start with the simpler questions. This…”
“Teacher, everything else is too simple.”
“…”
The form teacher was silent for a few seconds. Not wanting to dampen her enthusiasm, he said, “Then solve two questions that you know first.”
“Okay.” Chu Luo started to solve the problems.
A few minutes later.
“Teacher, I’m done.”
Chu Luo saw that there was no movement beside her for a long time and looked up at him.
The form teacher recovered from his shock, but his heart was pounding uncontrollably.
To think that Chu Luo, who had failed her math test a few days ago, was now able to solve the most difficult national math competition questions!
After that, the entire Grade 12, Class 4 was shocked to discover that their form teacher had actually spent the entire morning reading period explaining math problems to Chu Luo, who was at the bottom of the class!
The morning reading ended very quickly. The form teacher suddenly said to Chu Luo sternly, “If you have anything you don’t understand, you must come to the office and ask me.”
He had an urge to go back to the office and give Chu Luo the college entrance examination papers and mock papers for the past few years.
If she learned how to do it, she would be a dark horse in their class.
Chu Luo nodded. “Alright, Teacher.”
After the form teacher left, the entire class looked at Chu Luo strangely.
Chu Luo directly ignored these people and took out her portable audio player to listen to the words.
At this moment, a sharp voice suddenly came from the classroom door. “Chu Luo, come out.”
