Chapter 10 - Shen Ziyu
North Luo University might not be one of the best universities in the country, but it was definitely considered prestigious in Luo Jin.
A boy and a girl were standing at the main entrance of North Luo University. The boy, who was wearing a designer outfit, was over 1.80 meters tall. If one ignored his slightly droopy eyes, his face could be considered handsome.
The girl was no less than 1.70 meters tall. One could tell that she was a rare beauty just by looking at her elegant back.
Actually, this was true. She was Shen Ziyu, the belle of North Luo University.
The whole university knew Shen Ziyu. Anyone who attended the North Luo University would recognize her, even if they did not know her personally.
Shen Ziyu had not just been the most beautiful girl at school back when she had been studying there. She had also done a lot of things no one could imagine. The reason she was dropping out of school had made every guy who’d had a crush on her turn to despair. She was getting married.
That’s right, a girl as outstanding as her, with a rich family background, good looks, and amazing academic education, had left school before graduating to get married to a young man who had never even attended university. This was the reason she was famous at North Luo University.
“You know what would happen if the Fairy Planet were to open completely, Ziyu. This would mean that, in the near future, martial arts would become a necessary skill. North Luo University is considered average in Luo Jin, but compared to the Swallow Capital University, the Qing He University and other top universities, it is still way behind.”
“The North Luo University Institute of Martial Arts was just established recently, while both the Swallow Capital University and the Azure River University set up their martial arts institutes the moment they found out about the Fairy Planet. A lot of students from these institutes have traveled to the Fairy Planet lately, as well as students from other countries…”
When she calmed herself down, Liang Xi suddenly seemed to recall something. She took a step closer to Shen Ziyu and whispered, “Ziyu, I saw Di Zimo just the other day… Oh, I forgot. He changed his name to Di Jiu.”
Shen Ziyu felt her face stiffen a little as she replied softly, “The two of us are over. His life is none of my business anymore and vice versa.”
“Ziyu, if you want to stay at North Luo University, how about I transfer here as well?” Rong Tao, who was standing next to her, said as soon as he realized that she did not intend to go back to the Swallow Capital University.
He had thought it through and reached the conclusion that the reason Shen Ziyu did not wish to stay at the Swallow Capital University was because there had been too many people around her. He had been one of those people. However, now that she was returning to Luo Jin, if he followed her, he would have much fewer competitors to beat.
“Ziyu, when I saw Di Jiu, he looked almost dead…” Liang Xi knew why Rong Tao wanted to transfer to North Luo University, but even though he was a suave guy, she was still silently rooting for Di Jiu. Maybe it was because he had been her classmate once.
“Why?” Shen Ziyu was no longer calm. She paused in her tracks before asking Liang Xi right away, “Where is he?”
“Two days ago, An Lang and I saw him at Wang Chuan Temple. He probably went back to Luo Jin. I don’t think he had any other place to go…” Liang Xi replied.
“Ziyu…”
She didn’t wait for Rong Tao to speak this time. She just told him, “You can learn martial arts wherever you want, Rong Tao. That’s your own business. You don’t have to tell me about it. I have something to do now. I’ve got to go.”
Shen Ziyu bade them farewell quickly and left.
…
Di Jiu was awakened by a persistent knocking sound on the door. The person knocking did not wait for him to answer. He suddenly heard the lock turn. It seemed like the person had come in.
Di Jiu jolted awake and got up. Who is this? Why do they have a key to this apartment? Is this not the place where I used to live?
Suddenly, a lady with a slender figure walked in fast and stopped by the door. Di Jiu thought silently that she was a beautiful woman.
“Are you alright?” Standing at the door was Shen Ziyu. She was looking in shock at Di Jiu, who had taken off his shirt. She noticed that, although he was very skinny, he had acquired some muscles.
“Who are you? Why didn’t you ask my permission before entering my house?” Di Jiu asked her rudely as he frowned.
As soon as he uttered that sentence, he realized that something was amiss. Why did that woman feel so familiar? Within seconds, Di Jiu snapped out of his reverie and realized that she was the woman in the picture he kept in his wallet. If he was not wrong, this had to be Shen Ziyu, the very woman he had gotten a divorce from.
