The Elite Assassin Becomes a Flat and Ugly Nerd! Chapter 344 Bringing Glory to the School

344 Bringing Glory to the School

Shan Yue naturally heard the strong gunpowder in Xu Lu’s words. She was already used to it. How dare she show off in front of an expert with such a small trick?

“Senior Xu, you don’t have to worry about this.” In front of Lin Xiao, Shan Yue had a smile on her face. “I’m naturally going there to study as a bystander. I can’t help but be nervous. I’m definitely not as relaxed as Senior Xu Lu, who doesn’t even have to go to the venue. She just has to watch the live broadcast in the dormitory.”

For a moment, a war without smoke spread between the two of them.

“It’s a good thing to be able to partic.i.p.ate in the compet.i.tion, but it’s also good to bring glory to the school. Don’t backfire and shoot yourself in the foot. I usually hear that Junior Shan is eloquent. Now that I see you, you really live up to your reputation.”

Xu Lu, who had been humiliated, could not take it lying down. “It seems that Miss Shan relied on her mouth to win everyone’s happiness. No wonder she has a close relationship with big shots like President Zhou and Young Master Zhang. It’s better to be pure. Unlike me, I won’t appear by Brother Lin Xiao’s side.”

However, what Xu Lu did not know was that the reason why Lin Xiao allowed Xu Lu to follow him every day was purely because he treated her as his sister and did not have any improper thoughts.

Seeing that Xu Lu had no intention of leaving, Lin Xiao raised his hand to look at the time. “Alright, Xu Lu, you should go eat at this time. If you go any later, there will be more people in the canteen.”

“It’s not a big deal for the grouping of the compet.i.tion. There shouldn’t be any other matters, right, Brother Lin Xiao?” Facing Lin Xiao, Xu Lu still revealed a bright smile from the bottom of her heart. “Then let’s go eat together. You already promised me last time. You can’t go back on your word this time.”

With that, without waiting for Lin Xiao’s permission, Xu Lu reached out to pull him.

At this moment, Lin Xiao had yet to complete the mission Zhang Huang had given him. With Shan Yue watching from the side, he naturally would not leave with Xu Lu.

Hence, Lin Xiao shook off Xu Lu’s two hands. This action was unexpected by Xu Lu. Her extremely frustrated mentality caused her to stand rooted to the ground, not knowing what to do. The momentary silence made the scene fall into an extremely awkward state.

Lin Xiao quickly tried to salvage the situation. “Xu Lu, go eat first. I’ll be there in a while. After all, it’s Shan Yue’s first time being a partic.i.p.ant. There are still some specific things to take note of regarding the compet.i.tion that I haven’t told her. We’ll end it after we’re done talking. I’ll look for you in the canteen.”

Since Lin Xiao had already said so much, it would not look good if Xu Lu did not leave. She could only suppress the sadness in her heart and casually brush him off before turning to leave.

The moment she turned her back, Xu Lu gritted her teeth. In her heart, everything was fine before Shan Yue came to school. Lin Xiao only had her by his side, and no one would ever want to approach him.

However, Shan Yue’s arrival shattered everything that was originally beautiful. Xu Lu attributed everything to her, and hatred spread in Xu Lu’s heart.

Watching Xu Lu’s back gradually disappear into the crowd after cla.s.s, Lin Xiao quickly continued the topic from before. “Let’s continue what happened just now. The t.i.tle of the number one university in Federal City has always been Princ.i.p.al Zhang’s wish since he taught. I hope we can help him fulfill this wish this time.”

Hearing this, Shan Yue learned for the first time about Zhang Huang’s pursuit. Shan Yue received infinite care from this person who was not family but was more like family. Other than Shan An and Shan Chen, there was another person who could make her feel kinship.

Shan Yue was naturally responsible for Zhang Huang’s wish. Although she already knew that there was a high chance that she would not go on stage and that the direction of the entire compet.i.tion had nothing to do with her, Shan Yue still agreed resolutely.

Seeing that Shan Yue had received this key information, Lin Xiao could be considered to have completed the mission given by Zhang Huang. Then, he began his personal time.

“Miss Shan, even if this matter is over, I still hope that we can work hard together.” Lin Xiao gradually began to feel embarra.s.sed. “From what Xu Lu said just now, are you very familiar with President Zhou and Young Master Zhang?”
