475 Rumors

Fan Peng slapped his head.

“I almost forgot! After the two of us burned the Zhu family’s ancestral grave, we came back. When we saw that this place had turned into ruins and you didn’t come out, I asked Gan Yan to go back and find reinforcements.”

As soon as he finished speaking, the sound of killing shook the sky.

“Tiancheng, it’s right in front!” Gan Yan’s voice sounded. Let’s attack together!”

The reinforcements that Fan Peng mentioned were only a few people. There were Li Tiancheng and Chu Yan’s underlings.

When the few of them saw that Lu Benwei and Chu Yan were safe and sound, they were all stunned for a moment. Then, they put away all the things in their hands.

“When did you guys come out?” Gan Yan asked excitedly.

Fan Peng answered before Lu Benwei could speak, “They just came out not long ago!”

“Lu Benwei, Chu Yan, the Zhu family didn’t do anything to you, right?”

Li Tiancheng was quite loyal. After knowing that the other party was from the eight great families, he grabbed his weapons and rushed over.

Lu Benwei was also very touched. He thanked him again and again. Then, the few of them set off on their way back to their respective schools.

On the way, Fan Peng kept complaining. He wondered if the Dragon City Hotel would not pay them their salaries.

“You’ve already burned the Zhu family’s ancestral grave. Are you afraid of a hotel manager?” Gan Yan teased.

“If you don’t get paid, call me. We’ll burn the ancestral graves of the hotel managers!”

Fan Peng’s face instantly turned red as he waved his hand repeatedly. “Don’t mention this matter. Burning people’s ancestral graves will have a backlash! In the future, if I meet anyone surnamed Zhu, I’ll have to avoid them!”

Everyone laughed and returned to their respective schools.

…

The next day, a cold spring came, and it snowed heavily.

A thick white blanket was laid on the campus of Yanjing Hunter University.

Many students from the south were extremely excited when they saw this. They pulled their roommates along and played around on the field.

At noon, Gan Yan met up with Lu Benwei and Chu Yan. Just as he was eating leisurely, he suddenly heard a few students at the neighboring table discussing what happened in Dragon City Hotel last night.

“Have you heard about what happened at the Dragon City Hotel last night?”

“What Dragon City Hotel? Wasn’t it a big explosion that blew up the entire Feng City District?”

Feng City District was where the Dragon City Hotel was located.

The aftermath of the battle between Lu Benwei and the Zhu family yesterday affected the entire Feng City District.

The entire Feng City District had turned into ruins. Fortunately, the population of Feng City District was not that large. Coupled with the timely response of the Dragon City officials, there were not many casualties.

The person who first started the topic suddenly felt a little smug and said, “It was indeed a big explosion in Feng City District.”

“But, in the entire Feng City District, only the Dragon City Hotel didn’t explode. Guess what it is?”

The second person asked, “Why?” Is the quality of the Dragon City Hotel good?”

The first person wanted to talk big, but he was choked by the second person’s answer. Suddenly, he felt as if his fist had hit cotton.

“Are you stupid? How can it be that the quality of the Dragon City Hotel’s buildings is good?”

“It must be because the feng shui at Dragon City Hotel is good!”

“Feng shui?” The second person was interested.

“Yeah, don’t underestimate feng shui. My father is a feng shui master! How about it? Do you want my father to read your fortune and take a look at the feng shui? Since we’re classmates, I’ll give you a 20% discount!”

Gan Yan listened to the conversation between the two and could not help but feel disappointed.

“What? It’s just an advertisement!” Gan Yan smacked his lips and said.

Suddenly, Gan Yan froze.

The feng shui master’s son glared at Gan Yan. “You’re the one who’s advertising! I think you guys are all advertising!”

Lu Benwei and the others were not annoyed that they were being rolled their eyes at for nothing.

“The commotion last night was so big, but the officials actually didn’t have any news at all. It can be seen that the strength of the eight great families is still strong,” Lu Benwei said indifferently.

“The official factions of the Dragon City are intertwined. There are commanders like Pang Tian who is dependent on the eight great families, and there are also hot-blooded people who are ashamed of colluding with the conservative forces like the great families. But these people are in the minority. In the future, there will be many people who will find trouble with you,” Chu Yan blinked and said to Lu Benwei.

Lu Benwei nodded. Just as he was thinking about how to answer, a warm feeling came from his hand.

“No matter what, I’ll stand on your side.” Chu Yan pulled Lu Benwei’s hand, a faint light flowing into her eyes.

Gan Yan, who was chewing, opened his mouth wide. He was inexplicably fed a mouthful of dog food.

“I said I’d eat with you guys, but people laugh at me wherever I go. So, I’m a third wheel?”

Gan Yan put down his chopsticks, picked up his plate, and went elsewhere to eat.

Lu Benwei and Chu Yan looked at each other and smiled.

Then, Lu Benwei placed his palm on Chu Yan’s palm. “Now that Uncle Chu is in the middle of a battlefield, we have to seize the time to increase our strength and then go rescue him.”

Chu Yan did not know how to answer and could only nod. Compared to her father, there was only one person worth saving. That was Lu Ziling.

Last night, Chu Yan tried her best to establish contact with the logistics team of the Furious Dragon Legion before she went to bed.

The other party told her that although the Furious Dragon Legion was in prison, they were still in a decent situation with Chu Tianxiong and a few other powerful warriors of the Furious Dragon Legion.

Therefore, compared to Chu Tianxiong, Lu Ziling was more worthy of Lu Benwei’s rescue.

“Annoying fellow…”

After thinking about it, Chu Yan was prepared to tell Lu Benwei this idea.

However, the moment she opened her mouth, she realized that Li Tiancheng was sitting next to Lu Benwei.

Lu Benwei started chatting with him.

“The principal wants me at his office?”

“Yes!” Li Tiancheng replied, “As long as it’s before tonight, you can do it anytime.”

Lu Benwei felt that it was a little mysterious. He frowned and asked, “What is it?”

Li Tiancheng also had a mysterious look on his face. “You’ll know when you get there.”

Lu Benwei did not care much and planned to go after dinner.

…

Lu Benwei arrived at Chu Bowen’s office at one o’clock in the afternoon. As soon as he entered, Lu Benwei felt a chill.

Chu Bowen opened the door of the sunroom. The white snow reflected the cold sun and the cold air kept entering.

“Principal Chu, you were looking for me?” Lu Benwei asked politely.

Chu Bowen did not mind the cold. He lay on a rattan chair and swayed.

“Lu Benwei, what did you do last night?”

Lu Benwei was not nervous. For a person of such status, he would know at the first moment.

“I went to the Dragon City Hotel. What? Did the Zhu family ask you about me?”

Chu Bowen opened his eyes and sat up from the rattan chair. “No, but the Yan family has sent someone.”
