174: Chapter 98 Li ng’s Spell_1 174: Chapter 98 Li ng’s Spell_1 Ever since nearly triggering a ‘spirit summoning’ incident at the Wandering Bar a couple of days ago, Li ng has been confined to her dormitory by Jiang Yu, receiving full care from the family doctor.
Originally, Zheng Qing thought that this twelve-year-old little spiritual wizard would rest for a while longer.
He didn’t expect her to return to her regular classes today.
Before class, when Jiang Yu and a reluctant Li ng ca to thank Zheng Qing, they genuinely gave him a fright.
“Didn’t you say you were going to let her rest for a while?” Zheng Qing looked at Jiang Yu, sowhat worriedly asked: “Isn’t it too quick to return to class…
uh, is she okay?”
Having said that, he extended his index finger and silently pointed towards the sky.
“It’s fine.” Jiang Yu seed to find Zheng Qing’s cautious gesture amusing and laughed: “ng ng isn’t the type to stay put.
Uncle Wang–the doctor sent by the family–also said it’s not a problem, that so activity would be even better.
So, we just let her co…
Say thank you quickly, what did we discuss this morning?”
Jiang Da Headmaster turned her head and sternly looked at Li ng.
Li ng puffed her cheeks, pouted, and remained silent.
“It’s okay, it’s okay, we’re all classmates, we’re supposed to.” Zheng Qing sheepishly waved his hand.
Jiang Yu didn’t say a word, only silently stared at Li ng.
Finally unable to withstand this silent pressure, Li ng reluctantly handed over a red wooden box to Zheng Qing.
She then quickly hid behind Jiang Yu, sticking her head out to glower at the person in front of her.
Jiang Yu finally turned her head and gave a helpless smile: “ng ng doesn’t have manners, sorry.”
“This is…” Zheng Qing held the box in his hands and seed a little at a loss.
“It’s a thank you gift, it’s not anything expensive.
Because you’re quite good at talismans, we gifted so talisman paper and cinnabar ink.” Jong Yu held up a finger to stop Zheng Qing’s refusal and stressed: “It’s a little token from ng ng…if you refuse to take it, elders at ho would know and think we’re rude.”
“It’s not mine…um.” Before Li ng could finish, Jiang Yu clamped her hand over Li ng’s mouth.
Holding the red wooden box, Zheng Qing felt embarrassed and wasn’t sure what to say for a mont.
“Thank you for your gift.” After a mont of silence, he finally rembered sothing and smiled at Li ng: “Since we already thanked each other, let’s forget about what happened before, okay?”
Ever since her public-funded student status was exposed, the friendship built on the private plane instantly collapsed.
For a whole week, every ti Li ng saw Zheng Qing and the others, she either threatened them with violence or acted like she didn’t see them.
It was quite a headache.
Upon hearing Zheng Qing’s proposal, Li ng humd and tugged at Jiang Yu’s robe, not responding right away.
Jiang Yu let out a heavy cough.
“Seeing as you bit your finger, as a lady, I’ll magnanimously forgive your sin of lying!” Threatened by her cousin, the little girl pointed at Zheng Qing with an ‘I could’ve had a bargain’ expression on her face and arrogantly said: “If Jiang Jie hadn’t spoken for you, I wouldn’t have let you off so easily!”
“Truly fearful, truly fearful.” Zheng Qing was nodding his head repeatedly, showing a humble attitude of admitting his mistake.
He then turned his head to look at Jiang Yu, smiling and saying gratefully, “I’m truly lucky to have Miss Jiang speak for , I’m extrely grateful, I’m moved to tears.”
He added two more words at the end, and even made a wiping motion at the corner of his eyes, showing he was moved.
Li ng instantly burst into laughter.
“Li ng!” Jiang Yu was greatly embarrassed and reached out to pinch the girl’s ear, giving her a good scolding: “Talking nonsense, be careful I write to the old lady and have you taken back ho!”
“As expected from a college student, a grown-up has a big heart!” Zhang Ji Xin was smiling flatteringly at the side: “Well then, I’ll treat everyone this weekend.
How about we gather at Pedestrian Street?”
“You two are not included!” Li ng glared at Zhang Ji Xin and Xiao Xiao: “‘Red Face’ and ‘Waterlon Head’, you two are still in the penalty phase!”
Xiao Xiao quickly raised his hands in surrender.
“I’m just an innocent bystander.
I didn’t tell any lies.” Zhang Ji Xin sighed in grief.
Li ng gave out a cold snort.
“Hello, ng ng, I’m Blue Giant Xiaoxin.” Xin Fat Man suddenly appeared from sowhere, making a heart shape with his hands and looking at Li ng with a big smile: “Ah-you-ah-say!
“Pervert!” Li ng delivered a fierce kick to the fat man’s leg.
…
…
Back in class.
Seeing Li ng carefully walking toward the podium, Zheng Qing suddenly rembered sothing.
“Can she use magic now?” He turned to Jiang Yu and asked softly: “I heard after a spirit has been summoned, wizards have a period of weakness where they can’t use magic.”
Sunlight seeped through the pristine glass of the floor-to-ceiling windows, beaming directly to the center of the classroom.
The light shining on Jiang Yu’s face made her incredibly radiant.
Zheng Qing looked at her white neck and raven hair, montarily stunned.
“It’s okay.” Jiang Yu seed unfazed, flicking her hair and keeping her eyes focused on the little witch on the stage.
She said softly: “It wasn’t a complete spirit summoning, and moreover, the level of the experint was still within a safe range.”
Zheng Qing felt a scrutinizing gaze from behind.
He turned around and saw the Gypsy Witch not far from him smiling faintly, then kept sorting her Tarot Cards nonchalantly.
Zheng Qing wailed internally and imdiately turned his head back, focusing his gaze on the gorilla in the middle of the classroom.
In the middle of the classroom, Li ng looked at the mountain-like creature in front of her with trepidation, stopping her steps from afar.
The entire class held their breath, cautious not to stir the beast.
Professor Yao bit his pipe, folded his arms, and leaned against the lectern, watching the little witch in front of him with a smile.
Li ng glanced at the professor not far away and seed to have found so hints.
She took a deep breath, nervously opened her law book, her eyes darting back and forth between the book and the gorilla.
After a mont, she finally stuttered and said: “Ge Xi Tan Xi, cast to the gorilla.”
Everyone held their breath.
The air in the classroom seed to have solidified.
However, there was no response from Li ng’s book.
At the front of the room, Professor Yao let out a puff of smoke from his pipe, concealing his stifled laughter.
“Roar…” The gorilla squatting in the center of the room seed to feel a bit offended.
It roared at the wizard cub in front of it.
Even from a distance, Zheng Qing could feel a bit of sour wind passing over his head.
Li ng still held her book up stiffly, sniffled, and her eyes started to turn red.
The gorilla smacked its lips, seemingly losing interest as well.
From not far away, Zhang Ji Xin reminded: “You recited the spell wrong!
It’s ‘Ge Zhitianxi’, not ‘Ge Xi Tan Xi’!”
Li ng took a deep breath and shouted: “Ge Zhitianxi!”
Then, she ran out of breath and fainted.
