After getting off the carriage, Gu Jiao retraced her steps and followed the route described by Su Xue to reach the Canglan Women's Academy.

Although the Canglan Women's Academy was located in the inner city, it covered a vast area, much larger than Gu Jiao had imagined, which made it difficult for her to find someone.

"Where exactly is Linglong Pavilion?" She looked around, thinking, "I can't just grab someone and ask, can I?"

The Canglan Women's Academy did not allow outsiders to enter. Dressed as a man, her sudden appearance here could easily cause misunderstandings.

Fortunately, it was still early, so she decided to search each courtyard one by one.

It seemed that the fame of a certain beauty was too great, Gu Jiao overheard gossip about her all along the way while she was sneaking around.

From what people were saying, it appeared that the beauty had only recently arrived in Shengdu.

Different from Gu Jiao, who had become the most popular person in Mingxin Hall within a few days due to her abilities, this new beauty had become the public enemy of all the noble ladies at the Canglan Women's Academy on her own merit.

"She never invites anyone for a meal, and calculates every copper coin with others; I've never seen anyone so stingy!"

"She won't help when asked, won't lend anything when you borrow something, so petty!"

"She doesn't allow anyone into her dormitory, and won't let anyone touch her things! She has quite a temper!"

"She's so arrogant, always wearing that cold expression. Who does she think she's impressing?"

"Isn't she just relying on the fact that those men like her? All she knows is to flirt with men! Little vixen!"

"But... it seems her homework was praised by the instructor again."

"Yes, yes, she topped the exam yesterday again! I really want to tear that smug face of hers!"

"She doesn't have status or backing. She must be trying to raise her own value so she can find a good husband in Shengdu in the future."

The admission standards for Canglan Women's Academy were extremely high, generally admitting daughters of noble families or exceptionally talented women who usually marry into prestigious families in the State of Yan.

Thus, the Canglan Women's Academy was also known as the Bridal Academy of the Six States.

Many noble young men came in search of potential brides from the academy.

After hearing all this, Gu Jiao couldn't help but secretly admire the beauty. She managed to draw the hatred of all the students in the academy. How did she achieve that?

"Look, someone's delivering something to Linglong Pavilion again. It must be for her!"

One of the female students pointed sourly at a small courtyard in the southeast.

Gu Jiao looked in that direction. Oh, so that's Linglong Pavilion?

After cursing and complaining, the group left.

Gu Jiao walked in the direction of Linglong Pavilion.

The sun was setting, casting a warm yellow light on the ornate eaves of Linglong Pavilion.

Gu Jiao climbed over the wall into the courtyard.

Linglong Pavilion had more than one dormitory. Gu Jiao followed the servant girls who had come to deliver things to a room at the end of the corridor.

After the servant girls left, Gu Jiao quickly slipped inside.

The women's dormitory was indeed more refined than the men's. The room was divided by a screen made of yellow pear wood, with a bed on one side whose curtains were drawn, revealing a faint silhouette inside.

The other side of the room was empty, consistent with Su Xue's information that she hadn't been staying here.

Good, seems this is the right place.

Gu Jiao took out a mask and put it on, then unhooked the whip from her waist and cracked it loudly on the ground.

Gu Jiao coldly said, "Will you come out on your own, or shall I drag you out?"

“...”

"Not coming out, huh?"

“...”

"Fine."

Gu Jiao lashed the whip directly, pulling the figure from behind the curtains, but it turned out to be a dummy, not a student from the academy!

Gu Jiao frowned, "Did she know I was coming?"

The most beautiful person in Canglan Academy certainly knew that Gu Jiao was coming to find her, or more accurately, him.

The beauty was none other than Xiao Heng, who had traveled from afar with Little Jing Kong to the State of Yan.

Last night, Xiao Heng discovered a hair ribbon belonging to Gu Jiao that Little Nine had brought back in the middle of the night.

This let him know that the little guy had found Gu Jiao.

Knowing the little guy’s mischievous nature, he might not have revealed his presence, but to prevent the little guy from getting lost, Xiao Heng had placed the address of Linglong Pavilion in his clothes.

Thus, whether or not the little guy talked, Gu Jiao would be able to find him.

Gu Jiao, looking like she was here to settle scores, probably heard a lot of bad things about him from the little one!

Xiao Heng felt his teeth ache in frustration.

Of course, he wasn't hiding from Gu Jiao out of fear that she'd come to settle scores, but rather to prevent her from discovering that he was the new beauty at the academy.

That would be too damaging to his dignity!

Fortunately, he was well-prepared!

Gu Jiao, having come up empty-handed in the room, was wondering what exactly was going on when someone appeared in the corridor.

Gu Jiao hid behind the yellow pear wood screen as the door opened, and a girl dressed in a pink and white academy uniform walked in.

After entering, the girl closed the door, bolted it, and then walked towards the bed where the dummy had been placed.

Gu Jiao sneered and stepped out from behind the screen, "Are you the student living in this dormitory?"

The girl seemed to be frightened, her face turning pale as she looked at Gu Jiao in terror.

Seeing her delicate and lovely face, Gu Jiao thought she indeed was a beauty, but perhaps her reputation was a bit exaggerated.

However, thinking back, she hadn't seen anyone more attractive than her on her way here.

The girl made hand gestures, likely asking who Gu Jiao was.

When Gu Jiao didn’t answer, the girl looked at her pleadingly and pointed to a nearby table with brush, ink, paper, and inkstone.

Understanding her intention, Gu Jiao walked over and sat down.

As the girl came to the table, Gu Jiao noticed that her right hand seemed injured, wrapped in white gauze.

With a slight frown, the girl spread out a sheet of paper, laboriously picked up the brush with her left hand and wrote with great difficulty: "I am the student of this dormitory. Who are you and why are you in my room?"

Gu Jiao remembered Su Xue mentioning that she was mute, so she wasn’t surprised by the written communication.

"Can you hear me?" Gu Jiao asked.

The girl nodded and wrote: "I am not deaf."

PLEASE CHECK OUT OUR NEW PROJECT:

Description:

In the suspenseful supernatural novel “Records of Mortals,” Jiang Baiyan, once a solitary and impoverished youth, finds refuge in the Shi family of Chang’an due to his extraordinary bloodline. With his clear and captivating peach blossom eyes, this seemingly innocent young man conceals a fanatical and malevolent lunatic within. Destined to succumb to darkness amidst hardship and degradation, he becomes a harbinger of chaos.

When Shi Dai suddenly transmigrates, she takes on the role of the Shi family’s young lady, the one who subjects him to countless trials, eventually leading to her demise.

The twist? She never got to finish reading the novel.

From what she knew of the plot, Jiang Baiyan was just a silent, timid, and often bullied pitiable character.

***

Jiang Baiyan had never encountered someone like Shi Dai.

After he had slaughtered all the evil creatures in the garden, the blood-stained young man, exuding a murderous aura, approached her step by step, his lips curling into a malicious smile, "Scared?"

Shi Dai responded, “You’re really amazing! I applaud you until I spin like a spiral and fly around the moon three hundred times! And also——you have dimples when you smile!"

Jiang Baiyan: ...?

—

After seeing her at a lantern festival with another man, Jiang Baiyan lowered his eyes, his fingers twirling her hair. He said in a mocking and sinister tone, "The mansion in the western suburbs...if I hide you there, no one will find you, right?"

Shi Dai replied, "Does it come with meals and lodging? Can I sleep in everyday? Oh, and your cooking is the best!"

Jiang Baiyan: ...?

—

Jiang Baiyan was supposed to dislike her, even hate her, but as their separation drew near, his eyes turned red and he grabbed her sleeve, pleading, "Don't abandon me, alri—”

Shi Dai responded, "Alright, alright, I’ll only have you. Mwah."

Jiang Baiyan: ...?

He hasn't finished his lines yet though…
