Chapter 547: My Idol Got Married Young

Everyone looked at the young man, at a loss for words.

But mostly, they found it hilarious.

Samson Upton must have been embarrassed too, as he scurried to the back of the group.

Samson Upton explained to Chloe Sinclair, “My brother was worried I’d be suffering here, so he sent all this stuff. He’s gone now, and I can’t just leave it all behind. Might as well take it down the mountain.”

Chloe Sinclair looked at his innocent expression and couldn’t help but burst out laughing.

When they reached the foot of the mountain, Ian Winters was already there, waiting with a car to pick up Chloe and Jasper.

The other researchers also had people coming to get them.

After saying their goodbyes, the two of them left first.

Jasper Shaw had business at his company, and Chloe needed to register at the university.

Therefore, after arriving in Emberfall, the two parted ways.

Nathan Trenton had received news that morning that Chloe Sinclair was returning, so he was waiting at the gate for her early on.

When he saw Chloe, he couldn’t help but pat her on the shoulder and say seriously, “You’ve lost weight.”

“The conditions on the mountain are nothing like in the city. And at the base, everyone worked their fingers to the bone. Sometimes, you’d feel too embarrassed to even think about slacking off a little.”

Chloe Sinclair quipped helplessly, “Honestly, I’ve never been in such a rat race before.”

Though it was a joke, Chloe meant every word.

In the past, her research was either for tasks issued by the System or on topics that interested her personally. She had never been as exhausted as she was during these past four months.

Hearing this, Nathan Trenton gave a helpless smile.

“In any case, it’s a good thing the experiment is complete. What are your plans now?”

Chloe grinned. “I’ll go wherever I’m needed.”

The two of them chatted as they made their way to the Dean’s office.

The Dean was a bit stunned when he saw Chloe Sinclair.

Chloe had only been on leave for four months; he didn’t expect her back so soon.

“Is the experiment finished?”

Chloe nodded. “Yes. I’m here to report back. I’ll be back in class tomorrow.”

The Dean quickly shook his head. “Get yourself settled first. There’s no rush. However, you still need to make up your exams. Is now a good time? If so, I’ll have the professors bring the papers over.”

Although Chloe had been on leave, she was still behind on her credits.

The Dean was doing this for Chloe’s benefit.

Chloe quickly nodded. “Yes, absolutely.”

Seeing this, the Dean promptly had someone bring the exam papers.

Chloe leaned over the desk, her pen moving without pause. She finished all seven or eight exam papers within two hours.

When the Dean had someone grade the papers, Chloe, as expected, had scored full marks again.

The Dean was beaming, his face crinkling with joy.

Worried that Chloe was exhausted from her time at the base, he magnanimously gave her half a month off.

This gave Chloe the perfect opportunity to return to Kennet with her second older brother to visit their father.

When Mr. Sinclair saw his two children return unexpectedly and learned the experiment was complete, his eyes instantly filled with tears.

He patted both of his children on the shoulder, unable to say a word.

Gabriel Sinclair also heard his younger sister was back and immediately dropped his work to hurry back to Kennet.

The family had a long-overdue meal together.

Chloe hadn’t forgotten what she promised Jasper Shaw, so she told her father about her intentions.

Mr. Sinclair wasn’t the least bit surprised. Everything was just as he had expected.

Although he felt a little conflicted, he had seen how the two of them felt about each other. He didn’t say it out loud, but in his heart, he was supportive.

“What’s Jasper Shaw’s stance on this?”

Mr. Sinclair had barely finished speaking when the housekeeper announced they had visitors outside the villa.

No need to guess—it was Jasper Shaw.

With him was his spirited grandfather.

Their marriage seemed destined to be. The wedding was set for the winter break at the end of the year.

By then, Chloe would have already passed her 20th birthday.

After returning to school, Chloe handed out wedding invitations to her classmates.

Even though she hadn’t spent much time with them, everyone had been quite good to her.

But the moment the news of Chloe’s wedding got out, the entire university erupted.

University Forums—

“Sob, our goddess is getting married.”

“And her fiancé is Mr. Shaw! I wouldn’t even dare to crash that wedding in my dreams.”

“How can such a beautiful girl get married so young!”

“The real question is why she has love, a career, and will probably have a baby after graduation, while I’m still royally single.”

…

Gideon Lawson also received an invitation and was quite surprised.

After all, Chloe was so young to be announcing her marriage.

But the couple had done him a great favor. No matter what, he had to be there for the wedding.

「Soon, the end of the year arrived.」

In those few months, Chloe made many more achievements. However, the space unlocked by the System had only reached the second level, with the third level still a distant prospect.

This troubled Chloe.

But Eight, who usually acted like it couldn’t wait to crack a tiny whip at her, was now incredibly calm.

“Master, Science has no end. The science and technology in my world are still developing. Even if you can never learn it all, Eight will always be with you.”

Chloe froze.

Her normally chattering Eight was acting like a completely different system, and Chloe found she didn’t quite like it.

Chloe couldn’t help but ask, “Eight, are you malfunctioning?”

Eight: “Who the hell is malfunctioning?! I am the greatest system in the whole world, the whole globe, the whole universe!”

Chloe: “…”

‘Okay, the system hasn’t changed. That’s more like it!’

—

Chloe had promised her online followers that she would let them know when she got married.

But when the time came, she didn’t just notify them—she livestreamed the entire wedding for the whole internet to see.

Netizens: “Thanks. You respected us a little, but not that much.”

Still, watching the couple, the netizens felt a pang of envy, yet they also felt it was perfectly reasonable.

That evening, Chloe posted her and Jasper Shaw’s wedding photos and marriage certificate on Weibo.

The caption read: [For the rest of our lives, no need for guidance. Just listen to me.]

This time, the netizens collectively burst into tears.

Their idol had gotten married in the prime of her youth!
