Chapter 113 - School

The rest of the way to the school was a blur with Feng Mei immersed in her thoughts.

There were too many revelations today that she could not handle it. Elle had a person she like, Ethan and Aiden wanted to marry her and the duke and duchess were okay with it!

And... the stupid system was becoming more useful.

So many surplices all bundled up right before her bog exam.

'It's awesome. Now my brain won't be able to process anything. How can I write an exam in this state.... I need to be in a state of peace,'

She closed her eyes to take a nap again.

"Feng dear, we are here already. Get up now and clean yourself up," lady Perlin said in just a minute or so.

Sighing, Feng wiped at her eyes.

The coachman opened the door, and the duke got down first. He aided them all down like a very kind gentleman.

Feng distractedly got down and followed after them.

The ground under was fully covered in marble, with beautiful colorful designs inlaid in them. It was squeaky clean even with so many people walking over it with mud-stained shoes.

'What kind of magic place is this?'

She finally braced herself to look up. A huge castle-like structure stood in front of her with a wide-open iron-cast gate.

The whole school was at least ten times larger than duke's house and it seem to have many flying things around the top.

'Is it Hogwarts? Mister ling did you plagiarize your idea from a teen novel? Seriously?'

"Little Feng..." the Duke glanced back "don't get lost in the crowd," he warned her gently.

Feng looked around. The crowd was actually clearing a path for them subconsciously. 'Where is the crowd, huh?'

A familiar redhead stood up front, glancing at her intently.

Feng did not even spare him sight and walked into the school.

Getting involved with a main character will only bring you trouble. Like in Yubiri's case, he ended up proposing so suddenly to a ten-year-old child!

That was not normal.

Her stride slowed down. 'Wait a minute.. till now I got almost three marriage proposals! Why wasn't I famous like that in my past life? I was pretty, powerful and rich, yet men will run away like I'm the plague,'

It was natural that she would feel doubtful.

Actually, the men who approached all seem to be sweet and amicable. But the second date is when things went downhill. None of them would show up. it's as if they were kidnapped or chased away by a rabid dog.

That's how bad her luck was.

'Thankfully I didn't carry that shitty luck here. Oh, oh forgot I did. Instead of men running away from me, I'm running away from my life because of the strange system,'

"Meimei..." Elle tugged at her softly. "Are you feeling okay?" she subtly glanced back at Claudius.

"I'm okay dear," she smiled widely.

"No, your expression became like a person who ate a bug." She looked intently at Claudius. "is that guy a bad guy? Should i hate him too?"

"Don't get involved with him. Elle, there are three men that you must not ever get involved. Ever! One, that guy Claudius, next, the crown prince, and last but not the least the great mage Yubiri. They are all calamities of a young girl's life,"

Elle's expression changed. She tilted her head to her side. "But he is not a bad guy."

"Yubiri? Not him, but the sticky tofu stuck to his shoes will bring misfortune and a whole lot of trouble,"

The little girl did not understand what that meant, but her heart was not ready to give up at any cost.

"Don't worry, I'll try my best not to," she nodded cutely.

"Aw, my cutie pie." Feng kissed her head, leading her to the lineup. There was a line standing in front only the children were allowed.

Duke and the duchess stood by the side. Ethan was with the duchess clinging to her skirt, while Aiden just looked aloof looking at the ground.

Somehow it felt weird. Aiden did not look like he was connecting well with his new parents.

'Am I just imagining this?'

'I need to have a talk with him...'
