Yawn…
Chu Qing stretched. The sun had already risen outside.
He did not sleep the entire night.
Chu Qing suddenly realized that ever since he came to this world, he seemed extremely busy every day. He didn’t even have time to sleep.
However, he was satisfied with the results last night. In front of him, there were seven spirit pendants neatly placed.
“Chu Qing, get up. if you don’t get up soon, you’ll be late for school.”
His father’s voice came from outside the door.
“Coming, coming.”
Chu Qing put on his school uniform and opened the door.
His father looked a little haggard today as if what happened yesterday had still affected them. Chu Qing’s heart ached.
His mother also woke up early today and was sitting at the dining table.
“Hey, Chu Qing, you have to study hard…”
Chu Qing’s father started to nag but simply shook his head in response and remained silent. A lump formed in Chu Qing’s throat, and he struggled to find words to express his emotions.
“1 know. Dad, 1’11 help you seek revenge against Mom’s family in the future.”
Upon hearing Chu Qing’s words, his father laughed and affectionately ruffled his hair. “What do you mean? Back then, your mother left the family in a fit of anger because of me. It doesn’t matter what happens to us now. As long as you live well, we’ll be delighted.”
Chu Qing’s mother also stopped, her face full of love.
“By the way, 1 prepared something for both of you!”
Chu Qing took out three jade pendants from his pocket. They were the three spirit artifacts he had made last night.
“Oh, Son, you’re so considerate.”
Chu Qing’s father smiled contentedly. He selected a pendant designed for women and wore it around his neck. As he put it on, he instantly experienced a surge of clarity in his heart. The persistent headache from staying awake all night began to subside, and even the three-day-long constipation seemed to… loosen its grip.
“Son, where did you get this pendant? Why does it feel so cooling after wearing it?”
When his mother saw this, she smiled. She thought that his father was just coaxing the child.
“1 got it from the temple. Of course, it worked.”
Chu Qing chuckled and scratched his head.
“I’m heading off to school. Take your time and enjoy your meal.”
“Do you have enough money left?” his mother called out to him as he was leaving.
“Yes, I have enough.”
Chu Qing ran out of the house.
“This child… looks like he’s secretly saving up a lot of money.” His mother shook her head with a rueful smile, but his father didn’t reply. He just stared blankly at the pendant.
“What’s wrong?”
“Honey, this pendant seems to have some effect…”
His father looked at the three pendants on the table and scratched his head.
Chu Qing left the house as if he was escaping. He was afraid that if he continued to stay at home, his mother might figure out something.
Unlike his father, his mother was the boss of a company. If she really saw through this jade pendant that cost more than 20,000 yuan, how would he explain it?
Chu Qing scratched his head and decided not to dwell on the matter for now. He would focus on going to school first.
Chu Qing shook his bag. It was filled with pendants and peach wood swords. From today onwards, he would rely on these things to become rich.
As usual, he walked to school. Now that he was full of energy, it didn’t take him much time. Moreover, he liked to walk.
Unlike his previous life, Chu Qing was a complete nerd. His daily routine consisted of staying at home or going to an internet cafe to indulge in gaming. Unless Tang Ziyan sought him out, he would pay little attention to anything else.
However, as Chu Qing walked, he suddenly realized something. He could afford a car now.
Despite not having a substantial amount of money, Chu Qing could still afford a decent car. However, he didn’t aspire to own a luxurious sports car like Zhai Yu. His main priority was a vehicle that could provide him with reliable transportation. Safety was his primary concern, and that was the only specific requirement Chu Qing had in mind.
After all, it was more convenient to have a car. He couldn’t call Zhai Yu every time something happened, right?
“Yo, Chu Qing, what happened to you yesterday?”
“Oh? Hey, Lin Dong.”
The person who greeted Chu Qing was Lin Dong, the chubby nerd.
“Yesterday? What happened to me yesterday?”
Chu Qing was confused. He didn’t remember doing anything…
“I mean, why did you suddenly run away in the middle of school yesterday? We thought you and her—”
“Oh, 1 had something to take care of at home, so 1 left early.”
At this moment, Chu Qing saw Lin Dong’s wretched expression and couldn’t help but feel a chill. What was this fatty thinking?
“What did you guys think?”
“Hehe, we thought that you went to a hotel with her yesterday…”
“Bullsh*t! How is that possible!”
Chu Qing grabbed Lin Dong’s neck. It was so painful that Lin Dong screamed and begged for mercy.
“1’11 let you off. Don’t spout nonsense again.”
Chu Qing cast a sharp glare at Lin Dong, who appeared hurt and nodded in response..
