Chapter 2301: Maiden, Why Don’t You Just Come With Me?

Mag suddenly thought of one very important thing before he slept; he had promised Gina to go to Lantisde and check out the traces of the God of the Sea.

“What’s wrong with my memory nowadays?” Mag slapped his forehead. The brain, which he was once very proud of, might have been eaten by the zombies that Irina had been rearing lately.

Given the urgency of the situation, apart from taking part in Hope School’s opening ceremony, he had to make a trip to Lantisde with Gina.

He was rather interested in the God of the Sea’s traces.

***

Hope School.

The teachers’ office was brightly lit now.

“Principal, the last student has completed her registration. The total number of students is 3216. They have all completed their registration today. It is exactly consistent with the previous statistics.” Meli and Hera came into the office with a pile of documents, full of smiles.

Luna put the letter into the drawer before getting up and smilingly said to the two of them, “Thank you for your hard work.”

“It’s not hard work at all. It feels great to let so many children go to school. It didn’t feel like hard work at all.” Hera couldn’t conceal the tiredness on her face, but her smile was still very infectious.

“Yes. We weren’t very sure about their situation before, but after looking at the parents and children that came for registration today, we realized their situations were much worse than what we expected.” Meli nodded too. She was very touched by today’s experiences.

Luna looked at the two of them laughingly. They were both young ladies and their enthusiasm was exactly the same as hers when she first joined Chaos School. She nodded and said, “Leave the documents here. Go back and rest first. You still have to come back to prepare for the opening ceremony early tomorrow morning.”

“Alright. Go back for an early rest too, Principal. You had a much tougher time than us.” Hera put down the documents and left with Meli hand-in-hand. They were still discussing going to Mana Hot Pot Restaurant for supper as they left.

......

Luna put the documents into the cabinet. She sat down, pulled open the drawer and stared at the letter from Rodu quietly for a while, before tearing it into pieces and throwing it into the trash can.

Grandfather had taught her since she was young to put things back to where they belong. This was a good habit.

What did the betrothal made by others have to do with her?

Let the person who agreed be the one to marry. She had no time to care about the benefits from entanglements of those rich and influential families.

There were 3216 children here who chose Hope School because they trusted her. How could she let them down?

As for her family, as long as she didn’t reply, she could pretend that she had never received the letter and had no idea about this matter.

Even though the Carrod Family was influential, their influence still couldn’t reach Chaos City. She wasn’t worried that they would come and catch her in Chaos City.

Luna leaned against the chair and murmured to herself, “However, I can’t pretend that I don’t know about this forever. Even if I can escape from the Carrod Family this time, what about the other families? What can I do to stay in Chaos City properly?”

Vivian suddenly appeared at the door with her hand against the door frame and looked at Luna smilingly. “It’s very simple. Just marry a man in Chaos City. Won’t the problem be solved then?”

Luna was slightly taken aback. She quickly got up and pulled Vivian in. She even took a quick peep at the corridor to make sure there was no one there before closing the door. She heaved a breath of relief.

“What are you doing? I didn’t come here to rendezvous with you. Why did you make it so mysterious?” Vivian lifted Luna’s slightly chubby chin and smilingly said, “Maiden, why don’t you just come with me?”

“Scram!” Luna slapped Vivian’s hand away and rolled her eyes.

Vivian sat down on a chair at the side, looked at the torn letter in the trash can and smilingly said, “What is it? Did your father pressure you to marry that wastrel from the Carrod Family again?”

“He always says that in the letters he sends me. Besides that, he talks about nothing else.” Luna pursed her lips and said with exasperation, “He said it’s time for the agreed marriage and he wants me to return to Rodu right away. Otherwise, he will come and get me personally.”

“What kind of father is that?!” Vivian raised her eyebrows and glared. “What do you intend to do now?”

“Hope School has just opened. I can’t leave now even if I am willing to marry that guy. Besides, I don’t want to marry a man whom I have only met twice, have no interactions with and who has a very lousy reputation.” Luna shook her head with a convicted gaze. “I’m not going back.”

“I support you!” Vivian grabbed her hand and gravely said, “I’ll go look for my father after I get home tonight. As long as you are in Chaos City, no one can bring you away if you are not willing. Not even your father.”

Luna hugged Vivian tightly and smilingly said, “Good sister, I’ll treat you to hot pot in two days.”

“Why don’t we go now? Your work is almost completed, right? I’m hungry now. Let’s go have supper at Mana Hot Pot Restaurant now. You can sleep at my place tonight and come back to work tomorrow morning.” Vivian held Luna’s hand and started to walk out.

“Now…” Luna looked hesitant. “Isn’t it too late now?”

“It’s only nine p.m now. It’s still early. Mana Hot Pot Restaurant only closes at midnight. Going there now is just right.” Vivian took the coat from the side and put it on Luna as she opened the door and said, “Our Principal Luna has just accomplished one big goal in life. We should celebrate.”

Luna looked at Vivian with a gentle smile in her eyes. Only a true friend would know what she wanted.

“Oh yes. Are you really not going to consider my suggestion? I think Boss Mag is super nice. If you married him, we can go back to Mamy Restaurant right now and we will get to eat the hot pot and grilled fish prepared by Boss Mag personally. Isn’t that perfect?” Vivian suggested seriously.

Luna laughed at her suggestion. “Why don’t you marry him then?! He can even warm up the bed for you when you get home.”

“I want to, but as your buddy, how can I steal your love? It’s immoral.” Vivian shook her head matter-of-factly before whispering into Luna’s ear, “Are you really not tempted by the idea of Boss Mag warming up your bed?”

Luna’s ears turned bright red instantly. She let go of Vivian’s hand and turned her face away. “I’m not going with you if you keep talking like this.”

“Alright, alright. I won’t joke about you anymore, Principal. Let’s go now.” Vivian pulled Luna out with a smile and boarded the carriage that was waiting outside the school’s gate.

Mana Hot Pot Restaurant was still brightly lit late at night and the super-sized hall on the first floor was still filled with people. They were drinking, boasting and eating hot pot. It was very boisterous.

Vivian brought Luna to the second floor with familiarity and found a quiet room. They wanted to enjoy this rare supper time by themselves.
