The beautiful mage was kidnapped by the contracted beast again

The five of them finally sat down.

For the sake of his own safety, Mo Ya stayed next to Wen Xun and Chu Zhou, diagonally opposite Jiang Liujing and Chi - a position that was far enough away so that he would not be easily killed by his former adoptive father.

People passing by couldn't help but look in their direction.

"Do other people think our relationship is unbelievably good?" Mo Ya picked up the knife and cut a piece of meat. Perhaps the meat was overcooked, so it took him a long time to cut it open.

He bit into a piece of meat and mumbled, "But you don't have to look at us every time we pass by, right? We're not some rare mythical beast."

Chu Zhou was also chopping meat, but with an elegant posture completely different from Mo Ya's. As he cut, he said, "Have you ever considered that they're not looking at you?"

Mo Ya was about to ask who else it could be when he suddenly choked on a piece of meat.

"Cough cough cough cough."

The blond boy was coughing violently, but Wen Xun and Chi were indifferent. Chu Zhou couldn't move because of Wen Xun, and finally Jiang Liujing took pity on him and handed him a piece of paper.

Mo Ya covered his mouth and said in a muffled voice, tears of gratitude: "Xiao Jing, I knew you were the best."

There is a glimmer of humanity among a group of inhuman guys.

Before he finished speaking, he heard another burst of excited shouting.

His voice became hoarse and he looked to the side in surprise, only to see several girls hurriedly passing by with their faces covered.

Mo Ya: “……?”

Chu Zhou smiled: "Now do you know who they are looking at?"

Mo Ya: “…………”

He was silent for a long time and then said, "If I go out now and say that I am Xiaojing's roommate and need some financial help, will they take the initiative to give me money?"

Hell, his roommate's popularity on campus seemed to have suddenly skyrocketed since the freshman tournament.

Mo Ya even felt that if Jiang Liujing wasn't too young, he would receive a bunch of enthusiastic love letters from strong admirers the next day.

Jiang Liujing, who was inexplicably implicated by the two of them, also felt very innocent. He looked up at him and said, "Where's the backbone you had when you first came to the dormitory? Didn't you plan to be self-reliant?"

Mo Ya sighed and said, "Isn't this a new event at school? I looked at the items released by the school. Some of them can be exchanged for gold coins if you don't have enough points, but they are very expensive."

I had earned some prize money in the individual competition, which seemed like quite a bit, but when I thought about spending the money, I immediately realized that it was not enough.

While eating and chatting for a while, several people were surprised to find that each of them had the experience of being called by the college teacher to answer questions today.

"They are observing us." Chu Zhou put down his chopsticks and frowned in thought.

What do they all have in common? Their status as college representatives? Or their top ten finishes in the individual competition?

"There are only two purposes for observation: to understand and then to utilize. We are just a group of freshmen, and we are not of much use to these teachers. I guess they just want to deepen their understanding." Wen Xun shrugged.

Jiang Liujing secretly took out the vegetables he didn't like from his plate and put them on Chi's plate while no one else was paying attention. He said casually, "Maybe he's preparing for some kind of selection."

"..."

When Jiang Liujing looked up, he found that several people's eyes were on him.

Jiang Liujing: “?”

He almost thought his little trick was discovered and got scared.

He leaned closer to Chi, his expression alert, "Why are you all looking at me?"

Chu Zhou coughed and said, "I was wondering if you got any inside information."

Wen Xun was more direct: "You have a good relationship with that old principal, right? Did he tell us about our future activities?"

Jiang Liujing felt extremely wronged: "No, I have only met him a few times. And we have just entered the school, they will not let us out at this time."

"That's right." The three people opposite finally remembered their new identities.

Jiang Liujing then changed the subject and brought up what the teacher had said in class about the church. Of course, neither he nor Chi had ever received a blessing, so he casually asked about his roommates, a little curious about their situation.

Mo Ya revealed a bitter face when he heard this: "I really want to be blessed, but my family doesn't have the money to buy a place."

"Is it expensive?"

"Of course," Mo Ya complained. "Five hundred gold coins are needed just to bless a newborn baby. Five hundred gold coins. Who but a noble could afford that kind of money without blinking an eye? And that's just the lowest level of blessing. A bishop's blessing would cost several thousand, and a central bishop's would cost tens of thousands. And it all depends on whether they're willing to pay."

"I received a blessing when I was a child, but I didn't feel it was anything special. In terms of talent, I'm not as talented as you guys." Chu Zhou smiled and turned to Wen Xun and said, "You should have received one too, right?"

Wen Xun, to his surprise, shook his head, as if recalling some memory. His face darkened for a moment, and he said calmly, "Someone won't let me."

Chu Zhou immediately showed a puzzled expression: "How could it be? Your mother is a devout believer of the Divine Religion?"

Chu Zhou couldn't think of any reason why the lady would stop Wen Xun. If Wen Xun said that his mother forced him to go because he didn't want to go, Chu Zhou would probably believe it more.

Wen Xun wasn't surprised that Chu Zhou didn't know. Although he and Chu Zhou had known each other for a long time, it was only after they were ten years old. Chu Zhou had always believed that his current mother was his biological mother.

The memories of the past were shrouded in darkness and blood. He didn't want to say more and just brushed it off casually: "It was the other people who wouldn't let me."

After chatting for a while, they were almost done with their meal. Jiang Liujing secretly glanced at Chi's plate. It was completely empty. All the vegetables he had stuffed on it had been eaten.

For a moment, he couldn't help but admire him. After all, in essence, Jiang Liujing was an omnivore, and Chi Cai was the carnivore.

Chi couldn't help but notice that he was peeking, so he patted his palm lightly and said, "Don't be picky about food next time."

Jiang Liujing smiled at him ingratiatingly, but he knew in his heart that Chi would eat it again next time.

Mo Ya interrupted at this moment and asked, "By the way, Xiao Jing, have you decided on your candidates?"

Jiang Liujing shook his head. The cafeteria was crowded, so he casually set up a soundproof barrier before saying, "I don't want that Cassian to come to Muyuan. What do you think of Liu'an?"

The three of them exchanged glances, and Chu Zhou said, "I have no objection, but can he control the people in the Wood Courtyard?"

Jiang Liujing said at the time that he hoped they would help manage people. Liu An's situation in the Wood Academy was not very good. Chu Zhou felt that those students would not listen to Liu An.

"They definitely won't listen for a while, but this resistance will disappear after a while." Wen Xun's tone was calm and firm.

"Once they realize that the people they have isolated are the ones who can truly benefit them, they will immediately change their stance."

Human nature is so realistic.

They can gather around Cassian because of their own interests, but they can also abandon Cassian because of their own interests.

"Whoever you choose will be the winner in the war between them. Now, do you feel the power of power?" Wen Xun suddenly looked at Jiang Liujing and said.
