Chapter 1280 - 1279: Unconcerned

Chapter 1280: Chapter 1279: Unconcerned

Luo Yirui and the others didn’t delay any further and returned to Beijing at around ten o’clock that night. Because it was too late, they didn’t go back to the small courtyard and stayed directly at Wu Yuekai’s Red Painted Courtyard.

Fu Xuan Ge and Jing Yuansi were taken away upon arrival, but nobody paid attention to Little Fatty.

Initially, everyone thought the Xunyue School was a bit excessive and assumed Little Fatty would be upset, but they found out he didn’t care at all.

When Luo Yirui asked him why, Little Fatty was munching away on a bucket of popcorn.

"When a family has too many kids, this is just how it is. If you have a hundred children, each with decent talent, and one suddenly goes missing one day, you probably wouldn’t even notice. Brother Pang and I are used to it."

Little Fatty was eating with great gusto. After all, he’d pleaded with the local Uncle Bing for a long time to get it.

At the beginning, such things are definitely saddening, especially when you have high expectations for your school. But after being disappointed many times, you gradually stop caring. If you don’t expect, you won’t feel disappointed. This result was within expectations anyway.

Otherwise, when You Mingxiang actually saved him at the time, he saw through her identity right away.

You Mingxiang’s faction was very hostile to his parents’. The school sent You Mingxiang, which clearly had some malice. However, Little Fatty deemed himself resilient; he wouldn’t be defeated, nor would he die.

Right now, apart from striving to absorb resources and utilizing every resource from the school to make himself stronger, he had no other choice. He couldn’t leave because his parents were still inside.

One day, when he becomes strong enough to survive on his own in this world, he will leave with his parents. Otherwise, living like this for a lifetime would be too exhausting.

As for becoming a formidable entity and then gaining control over the Xunyue School, that would only be possible if the tens of other talented kids in the school all perished. Only then might he have a chance.

One person against dozens, Little Fatty figured he might as well be a laid-back Mystic Doctor and open a popcorn shop, living a carefree life.

Little Fatty’s ambition was just like that. Despite his young age, once he understood this and thought it all through, he became at ease.

Luo Yirui saw that he truly didn’t care, and also felt relieved. Since knowing him, Little Fatty had always been lively, yet unexpectedly, he saw through things so early. Though perhaps still far from the broad-mindedness his mother spoke of, Luo Yirui had an added admiration for Little Fatty.

"Being admired by a big shot is truly my honor!" Little Fatty grinned and then shrugged, "But sadly, it’s nothing tangible. To express your admiration for me, how about treating me to another herbal cuisine meal?"

Ever since tasting the advanced herbal cuisine from Heavenly Reduction, Little Fatty found it unforgettable.

Luo Yirui chuckled coldly, "Where’s your face?"

Little Fatty stretched his face out, "Right here! If you want it, you can have it."

Luo Yirui: "..." This person is hopeless.

...

In a hotel in Beijing, Jing Yuansi met Aunt Fei and Uncle Yan and slept soundly.

"Aunt Fei, is my brother called Jing Changle?" Jing Yuansi asked.

Gong Yunfei’s eyes dimmed. Hearing this name was saddening, "Yes, Yuanxi, why did you suddenly think to ask this?"

Jing Yuansi didn’t know whether to say it. She felt the possibility was slim. If she told Aunt Fei and the others, and if that person just had the same name, Aunt Fei and Uncle Yan would surely be very disappointed.
