Chapter 1268 - 1262: Injuries
The crowd outside the Dining Hall finally dispersed.
Governor Huang gave a cold snort.
"Xin Lin, this time, for the Crown Prince’s sake, I’ll let you off for now. You’d better watch yourself. Before the End of Year Assessment, you are not allowed to attend any actual combat class. If you stir up any more trouble, even if the Emperor himself comes in person, he won’t be able to protect you!"
With that, Governor Huang stormed off in a huff.
The Spirit Institute Director also wore a fawning smile, gave Xin Lin a few warnings, telling her she absolutely must not provoke the A and B Class Academy people again, and then left.
"Many thanks, Your Highness the Crown Prince."
Lu Yuan and the others also let out a sigh of relief.
Although they had already made up their minds to advance and retreat together with Xin Lin, if they were really expelled, once they went home, they would inevitably be scolded.
"No need to be so formal. I merely spoke according to the facts."
Long Qingxuan finished speaking and looked at Xin Lin, his face full of warmth.
"You with the surname Xin, how can you be so ill-mannered? The supervisor spared you from expulsion, and you don’t even say thank you?"
A few students from the Taichang Holy Institute saw that everyone else had expressed thanks, yet Xin Lin, as the one directly involved, actually showed no reaction at all, and they couldn’t help finding her attitude very displeasing.
"Your Highness the Crown Prince is practically a regular at the Dushi Dining Hall by now. Since that’s the case, all those days when the Qingtian Academy students couldn’t even get Spiritual Food and there weren’t enough seats, why didn’t Your Highness say a word on our behalf?"
On Xin Lin’s delicate face, there was a half-smile that wasn’t quite a smile.
"Outrageous, you don’t know a good man’s heart! Are you insulting our supervisor? You think that just because you defeated people from Star Academy, you can put everyone else beneath your eyes? The supervisor doesn’t hold it against you, but we won’t let you off!"
The male and female students of the Taichang Holy Institute were so angry their faces flushed red.
"Xin Lin, what you said is right. Next time, I’ll pay attention.
Long Qingxuan still wore the same mild expression.
"If there’s nothing else, I’ll be taking my leave."
Xin Lin cupped her hands in salute.
"Xin Lin, that Boxing of yours just now was pretty good. I wonder who you learned it from?"
Just before leaving, Long Qingxuan asked.
"I bought it by chance from a street stall."
Xin Lin shrugged and called Lu Yuan and the others to leave.
"Outrageous, supervisor, why won’t you let us teach her a lesson!"
Seeing Xin Lin’s "everyone is beneath me" attitude, those Taichang Holy Institute students were so mad their teeth itched.
"It’s nothing, just a little brat. Her temper is actually somewhat similar to Uncle Chu’s back then, the same kind of..."
Long Qingxuan chuckled, completely unconcerned.
Xin Lin really was Chu Beiqing’s daughter; father and daughter shared the same infuriating temper.
Long Qingxuan laughed lightly and left with a few students.
"Xin Lin, why did you use that kind of tone with the Crown Prince? Last time you met him, weren’t you still quite polite?"
Zuo Mingshang asked in puzzlement.
"Exactly, the Crown Prince did help us this time, after all."
Huang Xuerou was puzzled as well.
"I also think the Crown Prince is pretty good, at least much better than that Third Prince."
As a man, Lu Yuan also felt that Long Qingxuan was not bad. If Long Qingxuan became Emperor Longteng one day, he would definitely be a wise ruler.
"You all think Long Qingxuan is good? I, on the other hand, feel that compared to Long Qingxuan, Long Qingchen is practically a perfect gentleman."
Xin Lin shrugged.
As her shoulders moved, her body stiffened involuntarily.
This time she’d really paid a heavy price—she was injured.
Xin Lin glanced at her shoulder; the blisters there had already burst, and the pain was intense.
Compared to those who are openly bad, the ones who look like good people on the surface but are actually wolves wrapped in sheepskin are the most troublesome. Long Qingxuan was undoubtedly just such a wolf in lamb’s clothing.
