The Ultimate Borer

Chapter 285: How to be bright when you are born with beauty

"let it go!"

Zhou Yu looked around and after confirming that there were no outsiders around, he restrained his aura, and the three people behind him also calmed down.

"How's Jiangdong doing lately?"

Fang Mu finally gave up the idea, took out a box from Siman, put the dead chicken in it, and then handed it to Gan Ning.

"It's a mess. The eldest young master and the eldest young lady have disappeared, and the principal is nowhere to be seen. Now the entire Jiangdong region is being supported by the second young master alone!"

"Vice President Zhou, do you know that your principal, Sun Jian, wants to rebel and become emperor?"

Cao Cao spoke from the side, but Zhou Yu gave Cao Cao a very unhappy look.

"President Cao, I hope you can be careful with your words and actions. Although I have a good relationship with Fang Mu, I will not allow you to use your status as Fang Mu's friend to slander Jiangdong High School!"

"This is the truth. Since Vice President Zhou doesn't want to believe it, I won't say any more nonsense!"

Cao Cao glanced at Zhou Yu coldly, then walked past him and said to Fang Mu.

"Fang Mu, I'm going back first. Bring Mr. Zhuge to the Cao family for dinner tonight!"

"Mr. Zhuge?"

Zhou Yu quickly caught the key words in Cao Cao's words, then glanced around and locked his gaze on the unfamiliar face of Zhuge Liang.

"This person gives me a very strange feeling!"

The moment Zhou Yu saw Zhuge Liang, he felt a haze covering his heart, and he unconsciously felt a sense of rejection towards Zhuge Liang.

"Why do I feel so uncomfortable when I see him?"

Zhuge Liang did not notice Zhou Yu's gaze, but squatted at the place where the rooster's body was originally, feeling sad.

"It's all my fault. If I hadn't learned last night that Fang Mu and the Five Tiger Generals were coming to look for me, which made me so nervous, I wouldn't have dragged you along to drink with me to boost my courage! I'm so sorry, Dada (the name of the deceased rooster)!"

"Excuse me, Mr. Zhuge, do you know how this rooster died?"

Zhou Yu glanced at the chalk mark on the rooster's corpse on the ground, then looked at a branch on the tree, and he already had a conclusion in his mind.

However, he wanted to see what Zhuge Liang thought, because the "massage incident" had become a hot topic. Even though Sun Quan was busy with his work, he had heard about this matter, so he sent Zhou Yu and others to test him to see if he had real talent and knowledge. If he met their requirements, he might be able to recruit him to study at Jiangdong University. In this way, he could not only recruit talents, but also use Zhuge Liang's fame to expand the influence of Jiangdong University.

"Of course it died from being drunk (falling)!"

Zhuge Liang looked at the murder scene on the ground and felt sad, while Zhou Yu felt a sharp pain in his chest - is this what it feels like to lose?

Zhou Yu looked at Zhuge Liang in shock. The other party had deduced everything just by looking at the dead rooster on the ground, while he used three steps: checking the scene, feeling the wind direction, and looking for the cause of death.

"Brother Zhuge is truly exceptionally clever. He was able to determine at a glance that the rooster had been standing on a branch, and with the recent easterly wind, it was blown off the branch and fell to its death! I admire you, Gongjin!"

"Easy to say, easy to say!"

Zhuge Liang paid no attention to what Zhou Yu said. He just vaguely heard Zhou Yu complimenting him, so he responded politely but did not turn his head. His heart was filled with guilt and his eyes were fixed on the chalk marks on the ground.

"This Zhuge Liang is truly amazing. It seems like deducing this kind of thing is a piece of cake for him. Is he really smarter than me?"

Zhou Yu looked at Zhuge Liang in silence, and at this moment, Fang Mu suddenly locked his eyes on Zhuge Liang. He felt a very interesting aura from Zhuge Liang.

"This is…"

Fang Mu was just beginning to prepare to feel it patiently, but the next second, Zhou Yu's words interrupted Fang Mu's feeling, and as Zhuge Liang stood up, the aura on his body disappeared instantly.

"Mr. Zhuge, would you be willing to join our Jiangdong University? If you are willing, we will enroll you as a special student. Tuition and miscellaneous fees will be waived, and there will be a monthly teaching fund of 20,000 yuan!"

No one expected that Zhou Yu would extend an olive branch to Zhuge Liang so readily, and the Five Tiger Generals were immediately nervous. After all, the conditions proposed by Jiangdong University were much better than what Fang Mu offered.

"I'm sorry, but I've already promised Fang Mu to join the East Han branch, so I may not be able to go with you!"

Zhuge Liang looked at Zhou Yu with a mixture of emotions in his heart. He had always wanted to study at Jiangdong University, but because his family fell into poverty, he was not eligible for admission, so he had to find another way. But now Jiangdong University took the initiative to invite him. It could only be said that fate played tricks on him!

"what?!"

Zhou Yu glanced at Fang Mu, his lips moved slightly, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end he did not speak. After looking at Zhuge Liang and sighing, he left with the debate team behind him.

"Zhou Yu, is Xiao Qiao okay in Jiangdong?"

Looking at Zhou Yu's departing back, Zhao Yun suddenly asked, but Zhou Yu suddenly turned around and looked at Zhao Yun.

"Are you saying Xiao Qiao has returned to Jiangdong?"

Zhou Yu was also very surprised. Ever since Xiao Qiao left Jiangdong, he had been trying to mend the relationship between the two due to the misunderstanding, but with little success.

"You don't know? Didn't Xiao Qiao come to find you?"

Zhao Yun asked doubtfully, suddenly having a bad feeling in his heart. Zhou Yu, who also felt something was wrong, immediately asked Taishi Ci to contact his spies in various places in Jiangdong and ask them if they had any clues about Xiao Qiao being seen in Jiangdong, but they found nothing.

"Fang Mu, the situation is urgent. I won't reminisce any further. Let's say goodbye now!"

Zhou Yu took the debate team away and left Xiangyang City immediately. Fang Mu glanced at Zhao Yun, who seemed to have an inextricable sorrow in his eyes.

"You want to go find Xiao Qiao too?"

Fang Mu said this to Zhao Yun, who was staring blankly towards Jiangdong. Zhao Yun then came back to his senses and smiled awkwardly.

"I don't care what you think of Xiao Qiao. As far as I know, you're not the only one who likes Xiao Qiao. If you want to pursue her, you have to work hard on your own!"

Fang Mu opened the siman, said a few words and hung up, then spoke to Zhao Yun again.

"The situation is tense right now. I can only give you three days. During these three days, you can go to Jiangdong to look for Xiao Qiao. But once the three days are up, you must return!"

Fang Mu patted Zhao Yun on the shoulder.

"I've already mobilized a group of troops to Xiangyang City to help you sneak into Jiangdong. We can ensure your safe entry and return. However, whether this will succeed or not will depend on the fate between you and Xiao Qiao!"
