Chapter 196 Looking at the Stars

Amidst the overwhelming applause, the girl in the swaying red dress stood up straight, tilted her head and smiled at Yuan Zhinv.

Everyone was looking at them, but Xia Mi seemed to only have eyes for her. Yuan Zhinu could see her own reflection in her clear black eyes.

"Your breathing has become faster." Xia Mi blinked her eyes and smiled with a cunning smile, like a sly fox who had stolen something fishy: "Who is prettier, me or your Japanese wife?"

Gen Chinu was startled, but after realizing that Xia Mi was talking about Sakurai Kogure, her originally relaxed expression calmed down.

She glanced at the smug Xia Mi and said nonchalantly, "Is this how you seduced Chu Zihang?"

"No wonder Chu Zihang didn't like you. Your skills need to be improved."

Xia Mi was stunned, but before she could react, Yuan Zhinu had already pulled her hand back.

Yuan Zhinu didn't even look at the girl who won the applause of the whole audience. She turned and walked to the edge of the dance floor, picked up the wine she had just not finished and drank it all in one gulp.

She didn't see Nuonuo, the guy who had urged her to come to the dance, but he didn't show up. But just as Yuan Zhinu was about to turn around and leave, Caesar's voice rang out.

"Kazama Ruri."

The handsome blond man tapped the microphone on the second-floor platform, and the voices of discussion died down.

No matter how stunning and dazzling the dance between Xia Mi and Feng Jian Liuli was, this was still the Student Union's home ground, and Caesar was not only the president of the Student Union, but also a well-deserved star in the academy.

Everyone's eyes were focused on the man, except for the person he called.

Yuan Zhinu didn't look at him or turn around, but just paused before leaving, as if she would leave directly if Caesar's next words didn't interest her.

Caesar frowned, somewhat dissatisfied with Yuan Zhinu's attitude, but he knew in his heart that this girl had the capital to be arrogant.

"First of all, Fengjian Liuli, I'm glad that you are willing to attend my party." Caesar paused and said, "Secondly, on behalf of the Student Union, I sincerely invite you again."

"I hereby promise that if you join the Student Union, you will be the next President of the Student Union."

The whole place was dead silent.

No one did not understand what Caesar's words meant. This was probably the greatest sincerity Caesar could show, just like the emperors in ancient times who established a crown prince and said that when I abdicate, the throne will be your turn, and from then on you will be second only to the emperor.

If these words were spoken to anyone else present, that person would be engulfed by jealous looks.

But this person happened to be Fengjian Liuli.

Even the freshmen who had just enrolled had heard about the various deeds of Fengjian Liuli in these few short days. If Caesar and Chu Zihang were the stars of Kassel College, then Fengjian Liuli was a legend.

Even though she joined the Lionheart Club, anyone with a discerning eye knew that she was only giving face to the club's president, Chu Zihang. After all, they could be considered fellow disciples.

She had never participated in any Lionheart Club activities, and it was obvious that she was just there to make up the numbers. But even so, everyone in the Lionheart Club was proud of her joining. To exaggerate a little, it was as if she had been blessed by God.

And now, Caesar's move is like trying to drag a god into the human world, and the condition he offers is... the next president of the student union? This seems to sound a bit outrageous.

Although this condition is shocking enough for anyone else, it seems so out of place when it comes to Fengjian Liuli.

Everyone looked at the girl in the black skirt, nervously waiting for her decision. They all realized that no matter what choice the girl made, it would be big news on the campus network.

As the focus of everyone, Yuan Zhinu's face remained expressionless. She didn't even bother to look back at Caesar, and just casually replied, "Not interested."

After saying these three simple words, Yuan Zhinv took the black windbreaker from the servant and walked out of the front door without looking at anyone.

At that moment, Caesar's expression became extremely interesting, and the whole audience was dead silent.

But these are not things that Yuan Zhinv would consider.

She wasn't targeting Caesar, she just felt that clubs were boring and she was really tired of them.

After all, whether it is the Ghost Clan, the Eight Snake Clans, or the countless underworld gangs that she destroyed, in a sense, they can all be considered societies.

The cool night breeze blew away the smell of alcohol on Yuan Zhinu's body and made her brain clearer. She took out her cell phone and sent a question mark to Nuo Nuo.

She was prepared to reprimand this irresponsible little witch who had been throwing a tantrum and forcing her to come, but in the end she didn't show up from beginning to end, just like she had played a boring prank.

And it is obvious that Nuo Nuo is capable of doing such a wicked thing, so Yuan Zhinu thought that this girl might be unaware of the dangers of society and lacked a beating of love.

The phone dinged and Nuonuo replied quickly. She didn't say anything, just sent an address.

Yuan Zhinu clicked on the page and saw that it wasn't far away, so she simply walked over. She wanted to see what this guy was doing.

In the night, the silver-gray sports car was exposed under the moonlight. The whole car was started by remote control. The bright white lights flickered in the darkness, and the heavy roar of the engine was like a dragon's roar.

Bugatti Veyron, one of the world's top sports cars. Yuan Zhinu also has a black one. She once drove that car with Chu Zihang to Odin's lair.

The red-haired girl was leaning against the front of the car. She was wearing a sexy dark purple suit, a moon-white silk blouse, purple stockings, a full set of custom-made jewelry in gold and amethyst inlays, her dark red hair was combed neatly, and she was wearing ten-centimeter-high Mary Jane high heels.

She had obviously dressed up and was ready for the ball, but she didn't show up in the end.

"What's wrong?" Yuan Zhinv walked over and keenly noticed that the girl seemed to be in a bad mood.

"Sister, you drive. I'm a little tired."

Yuan Zhinu frowned and said nothing, but took the car keys. The hardtop convertible of Bugatti opened, Nuo Nuo took off her high heels, jumped into the car, and sat in the passenger seat. Yuan Zhinu also sat in and put her hand on the steering wheel.

"Where?"

She didn't ask Nuonuo what happened, nor did she ask what she wanted to do. She just calmly asked about the destination, as if it was just a spontaneous trip.

"Whatever." Nuonuo untied her long hair and said casually, "Let's go to the back mountain. There must be no one there now. Let's go and watch the stars."

This girl is really a person who does whatever she wants to do. It is impossible to guess what she is trying to do.

Yuan Zhinv didn't say anything, she just stepped on the accelerator. The Bugatti rushed out like a wild horse, drove out of the empty school gate, turned onto the road, and the mountain wind blew in her face.

Kassel College is located halfway up a mountain, with a ring road passing in front of the gate. Looking out from afar, the layers of coniferous forests in the valley undulate in the wind like black waves.

There were no other cars on the mountain road. The headlights illuminated one turn sign after another. Yuan Zhinu looked at Nuonuo in the rearview mirror. The girl's long eyelashes drooped, her head tilted to one side, and her face was calm.

For a moment, the world was quiet and beautiful, and the roar of the engine seemed to become lower.

Yuan Zhinv suddenly realized that this was a plot that had happened in the original book, but at that time Kassel Academy was invaded, and Nuonuo took advantage of the chaos to drive Lu Mingfei to the top of the mountain.

Yuan Zhinu didn’t remember the specific details, she only remembered that Nuonuo seemed to be having a birthday and Lu Mingfei gave her a lot of fireworks.

So, what is this little witch up to now? Why did she get brought up here?
Before Yuan Zhinu could think clearly, the girl's voice rang out softly.

"I'm sorry, I asked you to come but I didn't go."

Yuan Zhinu turned her head and saw that Nuonuo still had her eyes closed, with only her lips moving.

Withdrawing her gaze, Yuan Zhinv said "hmm", which was considered as accepting the insincere apology.

"Someone told me that Caesar prepared a lot of roses, a whole truckload of them, waiting for me to come and confess my love for him. But I don't like flowers, so I didn't go," said Nono.

"Do you dislike flowers, or do you dislike the person who gave you flowers?"

"I don't know." Nuonuo seemed to want to laugh, but in the end she just pulled the corners of her mouth and Yuan Zhinv didn't say anything else.

At the end of the winding mountain road was a stone tablet blocking the road. Yuan Zhinv parked the car in front of the stone tablet and turned on the high beam.

The snow-white beam of light pierced into the distant sky like a sword, illuminating the entire flat mountaintop. A spring gushed out from under the rocks, forming a small mountaintop lake. Faint sounds of water could be heard coming from the bottom of the mountain.

Nuo Nuo leaned back in the chair, stretched her body, but still closed her eyes: "Today is my birthday."

Genji: "Oh, happy birthday."

"So insincere." Nuonuo muttered and shrank her neck at the same time, but Yuan Zhinu really couldn't show any sincerity at this time, so she just threw the windbreaker on the girl.

Nuonuo was stunned for a moment, and when she opened her eyes she only saw Yuan Zhinu's calm profile.

"Don't you think I'm weird?" Nono tilted her head and asked, "It's inexplicable. I obviously don't like Caesar but I still keep him hanging. And then I feel sad and depressed as if I was forced to do so."

"I don't want to bother with you." Yuan Zhinv put one hand on the car door and looked at the lake on the top of the mountain not far away. The spring water was reflecting, and the water surface was coated with a layer of silver.

Nuonuo smiled silently and looked up at the dark sky. There were only a few scattered points of light. It was a moonlit night with few stars.

"Have I told you about my mother?" Nuonuo suddenly said.

"No."

"Yeah, she didn't have much to say. Many people in the academy said I was crazy. That's normal because my mother is a crazy person."

As the girl sighed softly, the atmosphere became inexplicably heavy. Yuan Zhinv didn't know what to say, so she simply shut up and remained silent.

"I actually miss her quite a bit." Nono seemed to be talking to Yuan Zhinv, but also seemed to be talking to herself: "I watched her die. That was my first clairvoyance. I saw someone taking her soul away."

"Come to think of it, I almost forgot what she looked like."

After saying that, Nuonuo fell into silence, as if he was in deep thought, or as if he was waiting for Yuan Zhinu's response.

Yuan Zhinu thought for a moment and asked tentatively: "May I accept your condolences?"

Nuo Nuo burst out laughing: "Is that how you comfort people?"

Gen Chinuo felt helpless. She was really not very good at this aspect. She couldn't just say, "It's okay. If the soul really exists, you will die sooner or later and you will see her again", right?

But just as she was racking her brains to think of words of comfort, Nuonuo suddenly moved, and the frivolous girl threw herself into her arms like a cloud and hugged her waist tightly.

"Lean on me for a while." She buried her head in Yuan Zhinu's arms, her voice a little hoarse. After a moment, Yuan Zhinu felt warm tears wet her clothes.

After a moment of silence, Yuan Zhinv reached out and gently held the silently crying girl in her arms.

Patting the girl's back with one hand, Yuan Zhinv raised her head and looked at the dark sky.

The last few stars were gone.
