Reborn Heiress: Seeking Revenge-Chapter 549 Looking for Faults (5)_1

"It’s just a little effort on my part." Shangguan You nodded and tossed a medicinal pill towards her.

"Thank you." Li Zhaohong looked at the medicinal pill in her hand and swallowed it directly. Medicine from Shangguan You was incredibly hard to come by. She truly hadn’t expected Shangguan You to take the initiative to offer her own medicine for her use.

"Shangguan You, it’s getting late; we should head back to school," Chen Xu and Yang Xiu said. Even if they weren’t particularly worldly, by this time, they had realized that the identities of Shangguan You and the others were definitely not simple. Being with them was a pleasure, but it also placed a heavy burden on their hearts. It’s better to go back early.

"Yes, military training starts tomorrow and lasts for a week. We should go back early to rest," Yang Xiu also spoke. In their presence, he was extremely careful with every word, afraid of angering them.

"Yes, let’s go back," Shangguan You agreed.

"Tomorrow, there will be a lot of things to do."

Liu Zili and Duan Yingyan both spoke up at the same time. Although the handsome guys were a sight for sore eyes, they could clearly feel a gap between them—a divide they simply couldn’t bridge. From their elegant demeanor to their tasteful attire, everything highlighted their differences.

At the same time, Duan Yingyan understood that Shangguan You and Yang Xiu were from two different worlds; Shangguan You wouldn’t take a fancy to Yang Xiu. With that realization, Duan Yingyan’s animosity towards Shangguan You lessened, and she no longer intentionally caused trouble.

"Yes, it is getting late. As students, we should act like students. Since Chen has spoken, then let’s go back," Bai Muxue said with a low chuckle.

"Exactly. I hope we can cooperate happily over the next four years," Fang Jianfei also nodded in agreement.

The group once again left Chaoyang Hotel in grand style. The hotel manager personally escorted them to the door and arranged for the hotel’s cars to take them back to school.

「Room 401.」

After Lin Wenjie had safely escorted Shangguan You back to the dormitory, he drove off in his BMW. Apart from Ye Anya, the other seven were present in the dormitory. Shangguan You took out her laptop and slowly browsed through a pharmaceutical website, looking at the descriptions of the medicinal herbs and pondering various issues.

Under the dim lights, each of the seven young women was busy with her own things. Bai Qiangwei, Fang Jianyu, Zhuge Yao, and Li Zhaohong were seated cross-legged on their beds, slowly absorbing the sparse Spiritual Energy. Although they had left Hidden World Village, they naturally couldn’t neglect their martial arts practice. 𝑓𝑟ℯ𝘦𝓌𝘦𝘣𝑛𝑜𝓋𝑒𝓁.𝑐ℴ𝓂

The thin Spiritual Energy was essentially useless to them, but they couldn’t bring themselves to abandon their practice. Especially after tonight, when Shangguan You’s mere words had caused Ye Anya to suffer once more, her displayed strength filled their hearts with deep apprehension.

Their postures, somewhat resembling yoga poses, seemed odd to Yu Zijin and Gui Luo. Though they found it strange, they didn’t say anything. Yu Zijin also had her notebook out and was looking up information, while Gui Luo played various small games.

They could relax today, but tomorrow they would face two weeks of military training. Such training was nothing for Yu Zijin and Shangguan You, but Gui Luo couldn’t help but worry.

In Room 401, Yu Zijin and Gui Luo studied in the journalism department; Shangguan You and Zhuge Yao majored in traditional Chinese medicine; Bai Qiangwei was in mechanical engineering; Li Zhaohong in political science; Fang Jianyu in finance; and Ye Anya in biology.

Room 401 was not only a haven for beauties but also home to students from six different departments. At Beijing First University, Room 401 was famous not only for its beautiful residents but also because it uniquely housed students from six different majors in a single dormitory—an arrangement that left many mystified.

"Youyou, are you participating in tomorrow’s military training?" asked Yu Zijin, whose bed was next to Shangguan You’s. She continued to search for information as she spoke.

"Yes, I naturally need to participate," Shangguan You nodded. If she skipped military training, her grandfather would definitely scold her to death. The Shangguan Family was well-known in the military, and if she couldn’t endure even this bit of hardship, she wouldn’t be worthy of being a member of the Shangguan Family.

"I’m so worried about tomorrow’s military training," sighed Gui Luo.

"Youyou, do you know who our instructor will be?" Yu Zijin asked with a gossipy tone, knowing that Yu Zifeng and Shangguan Qing attended military academies, so it was possible they might come.

"How would I know?" Shangguan You shook her head. Who the instructor was didn’t matter much to her.

"Youyou, I really don’t get why you’re studying traditional Chinese medicine so diligently, now even looking up the functions of herbs. It would be so much better to become a beautiful TV anchor like me! Even if you don’t like that, you could study clinical medicine. Traditional Chinese medicine really has no future," Yu Zijin said, glancing at the page full of medicinal herbs and pursing her lips.

"Do you think my brother will come to be our instructor?"

"COUGH, COUGH." Shangguan You coughed lightly. Yu Zifeng? It would be better not to see him. As long as the marriage arrangement between the Yu Family and the Shangguan Family wasn’t officially called off, it was best they didn’t meet. She really didn’t want to marry Yu Zifeng.

"Girl, my brother is tall, handsome, strong, and imposing! How can you make a face like that?" Yu Zijin protested indignantly.

"Yes, yes, Young Master Yu is tall, imposing, handsome, and suave, COUGH, COUGH, but what does that have to do with me?"

"How can it not relate to you? You’re going to be my future sister-in-law. How can it not matter?"

"COUGH, COUGH." Shangguan You coughed again. This matter wasn’t even remotely settled.

"Youyou, do you look down on my brother? Although he used to be playful, he always had his limits. Aside from being a bit image-conscious, he never fooled around with other women; I can vouch for that. He used to care a lot about his ’face,’ but ever since our military training, he doesn’t care about that superficial stuff as much anymore," Yu Zijin clarified, defending her brother.

Even though Yu Zifeng had seemed quite the fop during his first meeting with Shangguan You, Shangguan Qing had been similar. As scions of prominent families, they naturally had their own social circles and ways of life; Yu Zifeng couldn’t be entirely blamed for that. Now, he was at a military academy, diligently learning various skills, determined not to be outdone by Shangguan Qing.
